- Edna: Children, we can no longer afford to use anything electric. However, we will still be able to watch today's film, thanks to the magic of potato power.
- Gary Chalmers: Look, the district can't afford to keep every school open, so all the kids will take a standardized test. Whichever school scores the lowest will be closed forever.
- Seymour Skinner: So you're saying, if our kids don't pass this test, you're shutting down Springfield Elementary?
- Homer: And I wish that Mr. Teeny gets a banana, that the Isotopes emerge from this season with a great blooper reel. I wish that wishing wells worked so I wasn't tossing my money away and that Marge loves me forever no matter what stupid things I do.
- Lisa: Look, the thing is, it's more important to know how to take a test than knowing what's on it. So do the ones you know first. If you don't know one, guess "B" and move on. Now, what is the capital of Massachusetts?
- Bart: Uh, "B"?
- Lisa: Very good.
- Marge: Excuse me, you're that proctor that's shutting down my children's school.
- Department of Standardized Testing proctor: I don't shut anything down. People cut their own heads, and I just tip 'em into the basket.
