- Audrey Parker-Nichols: [interrupting] Wait-wait-wait! What doctor?
- Drake Parker: I kinda went to the emergency room and got X-rayed and stuff.

- Audrey Parker-Nichols: [pitifully] My poor baby!
- Josh Nichols: [deadpan] Huh?

- Drake Parker: Mm-hmm.
- [opens the door]
- Trevor: ...and I see some bushes, and a tree and a dog. A boy dog, and... And I see you, and...
- Drake Parker: You're here.
- Drake Parker: What are you smiling about?
- Josh Nichols: The great Drake, grounded, for two weeks. I love it!
- Drake Parker: Yeah. Me, too.
- Josh Nichols: Huh?
- Drake Parker: Two weeks layin' in bed, no school, playin' a little guitar, watching a little TV, you bringing me pizzas. Yeah, bein' grounded is baad.
- Drake Parker: Hey, Mom snd Dad still gone?
- Josh Nichols: Yeah. Why?
- Drake Parker: Let's take the dune buggy out for a quick spin before they get back.
- Josh Nichols: Didn't you listen? We're not allowed.
- Drake Parker: I know. That's why I said "before they get back."
- [the TV has been damaged]
- Drake Parker: If Mom and Dad ask about the TV, you don't know what happened.
- Josh Nichols: But that's not the truth.
- Drake Parker: That's why it's called lying.
- Josh Nichols: Drake is unbelievable. You know, he's just one of those guys who can get away with anything.
- Drake Parker: Oh, time for a snack.
- Josh Nichols: He does whate-e-e-ever he wants and never gets in trouble.
- Drake Parker: [grabbing a handful of cake from the refrigerator and stuffing his mouth] Mm, cake is good.
- Josh Nichols: It's like he leads a charmed life. Must be nice. Me, I always try to do the right thing.
- Drake Parker: Milk.
- Josh Nichols: I follow all the rules, 'cause if I even THINK about doing something wrong I get busted. I don't get it.
- Drake Parker: [finishes drinking from a milk carton] Ah.
- Josh Nichols: I wish I knew Drake's secret.
