- Dewey Finn: Hey! What's up? Is that a new song? Who's this guy?
- Theo: Dewey, we're taking the Battle of the Bands seriously this year.
- Dewey Finn: Good, because I need the money. Now, listen. My feeling is if we're gonna win this thing, we gotta actually start playing some music.
- Theo: I agree. You're fired.
- Dewey Finn: Your lyrics, now don't take this the wrong way, Theo, are lame. But I've been sitting on some awesome material, so...
- Theo: Dewey, did you hear what I said? We voted. You're out. This is Spider; he's replacing you.
- Spider: What's up, dawg?
- Neil: I was gonna tell you last night, Dewey, but you passed out, man.
- Dewey Finn: Okay, you're gonna kick me out of the band? You're gonna fire me? Well, this is my band. I brought us together.
- Neil: Theo wanted you out. There's nothing I could do.
- Theo: Oh, shut up, man. You voted him out, too. I didn't tell you what to do. Dewey, listen to me. You're a good guitar player, but it's the 20-minute guitar solos, it's the stage dives. We're trying to land a record deal, man, and you're an embarrassment.
- Dewey Finn: [raising his first three fingers] Read between the lines, Theo. Read between the lines!
- Neil: Dewey, man, I hope this doesn't come between us. Like I care about you, man.
- Dewey Finn: You guys, you know what? You're nuts. You're all nuts. You've been focused so hard on making it, you forgot about one little thing. It's called the music! And I don't even care. You know what? So what? I don't wanna hang out with a bunch of wannabe corporate sellouts. I'm gonna form my own band and we're gonna start a revolution, okay? And you're gonna be a funny little fotenote on my epic ass. I feel sorry for you guys.
