1* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCx5zN-aPhU&NR=1 This]]:
2-->'''Bender:''' A naked blonde walks into a bar with a poodle under one arm and a two-foot salami under the other. She lays the poodle on the table. The bartender says, "I suppose you won't be needing a drink." The naked lady says, [[spoiler:''([[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome falls through ceiling]])'' '''"OHH SHIIIT!"''']]
3** Made even funnier because that was improvised, apparently, and because we never hear the end of it.
4** After it happens, the others all stare at him wide-eyed and dumbfounded, clearly not yet having processed what has just occurred. Bender simply nonchalantly states "forgot my pencil."
5* The scene where Bender takes a screw out of the door so it won't stay open, and the hilarity that ensues.
6** And when Vernon gets Andrew to help him to prop the door open:
7--->'''Bender:''' Hey, how come Andrew gets to get up? [[SarcasmMode If he gets up, we'll]] ''[[SarcasmMode all]]'' [[SarcasmMode get up!]] ''[[SarcasmMode It'll be anarchy!]]''
8** "Screws fall out all the time. The world's an imperfect place."
9* Bender's genuine bewilderment at Claire's lunch. Even Claire finds it funny, and in a good-natured way.
10** "Can I eat?" "I don't know. Give it a try."
11** The lunch scene in general is pretty hilarious, but some of the best was Andrew pulling endless amounts of food out of his bag, only to find the rest of his classmates looking at him in shock before exclaiming 'What's your problem?'
12** ''Everyone's'' "what the hell" expressions at Allison's lunch.
13** Then there's the matter of Vernon's lunch. He goes to pour his coffee from his Thermos into a paper cup... which then [[EpicFail spills out all over his desk, his untouched sandwich and knocks over the cup.]] Even better, the "coffee" doesn't even resemble coffee and looks more like chocolate syrup or an element that exists in nature. He even lampshades this, saying it looked like mud and "something that was scraped from the bottom of the Mississippi River." Plus, the stupid look he had on his face after it happened, complete with a piece of orange sitting in his mouth.
14* In one scene, Bender and Andrew fight. Bender pulls out a knife and stabs it into a chair, before beginning to rant at Andrew. The mood is... somewhat destroyed... by [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Allison leaning over, pulling the knife out of the chair and keeping it.]]
15** Let's just check off half the stuff Allison is responsible for and be done with it..
16*** Seconded. Particularly [[CrazyConsumption her lunch]].
17*** Another favourite is her inserting herself into the discussion between Andy and Brian as they discuss the latter's fake ID; she asks if they want to see what's in her bag, both answer ''"No,"'' in unison, clearly perturbed; she promptly gives both of them a hilarious 'how dare you?'-esque death glare.
18* The long argument between Allison and Claire, which starts with Allison telling the group she's a raging nymphomaniac, and ends with the group coercing Claire into admitting (much to her embarrassment) that she's a virgin.
19-->'''Allison:''' I never did it either. I'm not a nymphomaniac. I'm a compulsive liar.
20* The scene where Bender is ripping apart a library book:
21-->'''Andy:''' That's real intelligent.\
22'''Bender:''' ''(completely deadpan)'' You're right, it's wrong to destroy literature. It's such fun to read. ''(rips out another page)'' and ''Molay'' really pumps my nads.\
23'''Claire:''' [[PronouncingMyNameForYou Moliere]].\
24[[HeldGaze (the two stare at each other)]]\
25'''Brian:''' ''(timidly)'' [[MomentKiller I love his work]].\
26''(Bender throws some pages at him)''
27* Some of Bender's earlier exchanges with Vernon, before the tension between the two esclates;
28-->'''Bender:''' Does Barry Manilow know you raid his wardrobe?
29** Also the later scene where Bender provides a [[WeNeedADistraction distraction]] for the kids to get back to the library, prompting a befuddled Vernon to find him bellowing to himself and shooting hoops in the gym;
30-->'''Bender:''' I'm thinkin' a'tryin' for a ''scholasheeeeeep''.
31* The WeNeedADistraction scene in which the four try to hide Bender's presence in the library, although Bender makes it difficult when he tries to get a closer look at Claire's underwear.
32** "Could you describe the ruckus, sir?"
33* An in-universe one: Brian and Allison's reasons for being in detention.
34** Brian: [[spoiler:He brought [[DrivenToSuicide a gun to school]]... [[MoodWhiplash a]] ''[[MoodWhiplash flare]]'' [[MoodWhiplash gun]]. [[EpicFail That went off in his locker.]]]]
35** Allison: [[spoiler:"Nothing. ...I didn't have anything better to do..."]]
36* Turns out Brian's downward spiral started when he got an F in shop, thinking it'd be easy. Bender wastes no time lording it over him that ''he can wire a lamp and Brian can't''.
37-->'''Brian:''' Did you know without trigonometry, there'd be no engineering?\
38'''Bender:''' [[JerkassHasAPoint Without lamps, we'd have no light]].
39* "I've seen her dehydrate sir. It's pretty gross."
40* "Chicks can't hold their smoke. That's what it is".
41* Vernon trying to give Bender a lecture about pulling the fire alarm:
42-->'''Vernon:''' What if your home... what if your family... what if your ''dope'' was on fire?\
43'''Bender:''' [truthfully] Impossible, sir. [[SarcasticConfession It's in Johnson's underwear]].
44* After Andrew tearfully reveals to the others the pressures his [[StageMom win-at-all-costs]] [[AbusiveParents dad]] keeps pushing on him, Bender gives a smartass response of saying how he can relate: "I think your old man and [[AbusiveParents my old man]] should get together and go bowling."
45* [[NarmCharm "I taped Larry Lester's buns together."]] Complete with dramatic music, and everyone staring at him seriously.
46* While Vernon is out of the room, the gang whistles the Colonel Bogey March to pass the time. When Vernon comes back in, the whistling dies down... and Bender starts whistling Beethoven's Fifth.
