Josh Framm : [sighs] Let's go. Let's go. Come on, I'm just playing. Yeah, good boy. Just, like we always do. You already showed me that. Don't worry about all those people out there. Hey, good boy. Yeah, good boy. Let's go. Come on. Let's go, boy.
[bounces basketball on floor once]
Josh Framm : Come on. Let's go. Good boy. You wanna play?

Josh Framm : [after the game] Hey, boy.
Jackie Framm : Did you know that Buddy could do that? Did you know that Buddy could play basketball?
Principal Pepper : [chuckling] There he is! Oh, the man of the hour! And the dog! I swear, I wouldn't have believed it, if I hadn't seen it with my own two eyes! A basketball-playing dog! A regular Michael "Woof" Jordan! You've been keeping this under your hats! Oh, I'm going off like a faucet. Melissa, this is Mrs. Framm... and her talented son, Josh.
Melissa : Hi.
Josh Framm : Hi.
Melissa : I'm the president, of the Booster Club and wondered if you and...
Josh Framm : Buddy.

Coach Barker : You're never going to drop another ball, Stewart!
[starts throwing a group of basketballs at Tom Stewart too hard and too fast for him to successfully catch any of them, to vent out his anger]
Principal Pepper : [opens the gymnasium door] What's going on here?
Coach Barker : Just running Tom through a little drill.
Principal Pepper : That'll be enough, Joe. That will be enough.
Josh Framm : [Josh pets Buddy's head at gymnasium door] Good boy!
