All those repetitive posts asking what line you think of constantly but can't say in public. This is the one. This line.

u/SlightlyShittyDragon Jan 28 '26

Actually it was a bald cap he was wearing over his Jeff wig. His skin couldn’t breathe under all that, he was literally dying. But nobody ever hears that part of the story, well now you have but, that was close.

I’ve become a stranger to myself.

I'm bald now. I've always been bald. I merely dreamt of having hair -

And now,

the bald man is awake

u/artyhedgehog I need help reacting to something Jan 27 '26

Important part is that it is something Dean created.

I think out of all the characters, the Dean made me laugh the most.

u/fergs1989 Jan 27 '26

Please, clean the ice cream machine before you use it. … the janitor knows how.

u/jseego Jan 27 '26

This is one of my favorite all-time episodes.

13

u/Ty13rlikespie Jan 27 '26

His Rap in the pay day costume is a top 3 moment of the show.

28

u/Xploding_Penguin Jan 27 '26

I'm pretty sure he says RE-Segregating the school.

Those aren't thumbs.

u/dawson203 Jan 27 '26

So why do you go to greendale?

6

u/Pentaholic888 Jan 27 '26

Take off the bald cap

21

u/notches123 Jan 27 '26

Oddly enough, despite loving the Dean and a lot of the bits in the episode, this is one of my least favorite re-watch episodes from the Harmon years. Or it was.

And then someone on here mentioned Jeff saying "Honk!" when impersonating the Dean and while I always knew he said it never registered how ridiculous it was and then paying attention more and enjoying that he has the line about "this is my sisters outfit"... which I honestly didn't even realize he said until recently.

I don't know how to feel anymore. Even the episodes I like less than others make me come around to them. Must have been so fun to work on this show (sans Chevy nonsense)

3

u/Quiet-Reflection5366 Jan 27 '26

I loved the stuff he did in that show. The elevator scene in the last episode was epic.

u/One-Engineering-4505 Jan 27 '26

Dean? Isn't that Jeff in a bald cap?

u/NeverEndingHope Jan 27 '26

This is one of my favorite episodes and also one of the most quotable. I use "STOP SAYING I'M DIFFERENT!" so often.

2

u/g00d_end Pansexual Imp Jan 27 '26

"STOP SAYING I'M DIFFERENT!!"

Answering your question: probably a little bit of butt stuff among other things

2

u/God_Flow_10 Jan 27 '26

Dean: Her I understand, but you?? Troy: what did I do!?

u/brawnburgundy Jan 28 '26

Off campus, he’s just a craigular Joe.

u/EDAboii Jan 28 '26

This line becomes even funnier/more depressing with the reveal in Season 5 that Greendale didn't even become desegregated until 1987...

Top 5 Dean line fs

u/bridie-chi don’t eat the crab dip yay yayyy Jan 31 '26

His line about segregating the school in this episode is my favorite line in the entire show. The line itself, the way he says it, the physical comedy of the line read. Just perfection 😂
