* Brian figured he was smarter than the kids who take shop class, so he should pass easily (he didn't). Bender, of all people, calls him out on what an elitist view that is.

Added DiffLines:

* After all of Bender's tough talk, Andy easily gets the better of him physically even when Bender has the first move. Bender has to pull out a knife afterwards just to save face.

** Brian tops them both, by noting that he and Alison, the "weirdos," can say they are better than the others by default. He says, pretty forcefully, that he would never turn on them, laughing at them behind their back. "I wouldn't, and I ''will not.'' Because I think that's real shitty." The thing is, Brian ''means it.'' He's already shown his character in a subtle way: he doesn't look down on Carl the janitor. If anyone is going to truly come out of this a better person, it's Brian.

** When asked about her friends, Allison said that IF she had any friends, they wouldn't be the kind of people wound up by social hierarchy. A very impressive statement about her self-respect and confidence given how Allison is a neglected teenage girl.



* Brian's "Fuck you" to Claire. That must have taken a lot of courage, him being lower on the social ladder and all. Not to mention Anthony Michael Hall's acting. He goes from looking shocked to crying in about TWO SECONDS.
