Ferris Bueller's Day Off1986

Mr. Rooney:
I don't trust this kid any further than I can throw him.

Grace:
Well, with your bad knee, Ed, you shouldn't throw anybody. [Ed looks at Grace] It's true.

Mr. Rooney:
What is so dangerous about a character like Ferris Bueller is he gives good kids bad ideas.

Grace:
Uh-huh.

Mr. Rooney:
Last thing I need at this point in my career is 1,500 Ferris Bueller disciples running around these halls. He jeopardizes my ability to effectively govern this student body.

Grace:
Well, he makes you look like an ass, is what he does, Ed.

Mr. Rooney:
Thank you, Grace. I think you're wrong.

Grace:
Oh, well, he's very popular, Ed. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wasteoids, dweebies, d*ckheads — They all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude.

Mr. Rooney:
That is why I have got to catch him this time. To show these kids that the example he sets is a first-class ticket to nowhere.

Grace:
Oh, Ed, you sounded like Dirty Harry just then.

Mr. Rooney:
Really?

Grace:
Uh-huh.

Mr. Rooney:
[smiles] Thanks, Grace.
