Quotes
Zack: "Mr. B, what are you doing here?"
Mr. Belding: "I'm here to marry you"
Zack: "Sorry Sir, You're Not My Type"
Mr. Belding: "Zip it, or you'll be honeymooning in Detention"
Zack: "Zipping Sir"
Kelly: Well I think humor is very important in keeping a marriage together.
Slater: Oh yeah..other things are important too.
Jessie: Really, Slater?
Slater: Sure. Trust, understanding, and great legs.
Zack: Yeah!
Jessie: You macho pig.
Slater: Oink, oink, baby!
Screech: No way I'm taking off THESE magic underpants.
Zack: So I can watch The Young and the Restless.
Jessie: It's more the Blonde and the Useless.
Screech: Zoinks!
Trivia
- When Lisa asked why she had to go with Screech, Mr. Belding said that he put them in alphabetical order. That can't be true because Screech's last name starts with a P and Lisa's last name starts with a T.
- Mr. Belding pulls Zack, Slater, and Screech into his office to discuss their punishment for bringing their personal vendetta's into the assignment. Which is incorrect: Slater orchestrated with Screech to break up Zack and Kelly. For once, Zack is the victim as he had no knowledge about this at all, and should not have been punished.
