- Arnold Horshack: I'll share my experience with you -- perhaps it will inspire you to join us. Last week I was walking down the street - Avenue "D" I think it was - when suddenly I was approached by this girl - a vision of loveliness. Her name is Kali Kalu...formerly Miss Debbi Rothenberg of Forrest Hills.
- Gabe Kotter: Don't tell me Arnold's absent again today.
- Vinnie Barbarino: Mr. Kotter, Arnold's again today.
- Gabe Kotter: Thanks a lot, Vinnie. Let me know if you get here.
