Quotes
-
[Medea is on trial as a witch, with Macro presiding and Finger prosecuting]
Medea : What exactly are you afraid of, Finger?
Macro : He's not afraid of anything.
Jay Ziegler : I'll tell you what he's afraid of. He's afraid of the truth. And he's afraid of kids who aren't afraid to tell the truth.
Finger : The only truth that matters is that Medea is different.
Jay Ziegler : Of course she's different, kids of the jury. Ask yourselves: Is it a crime to be different? Is it a crime to say what you think? To wear what you want?
Finger : My point. exactly. These are the crimes of a witch.
Jay Ziegler : No. This is growing up. Take a good look at yourselves. We're all growing up. Medea's the only one who's not afraid to act like it.

[Finger addresses Macro in different ways, eash time with barely-hidden sarcasm]
Macro : Excuse me. The Supreme Leader does not take out the trash.
Finger : [to Medea] The Macho Extremo is beyond garbage.
Finger : [later, in Court, Macro is presiding over Medea's trial and silences Medea's lawyer] Thank you, your Innate Impartiality.
Macro : [as the trial progesses, Macro gets impatient] I've heard enough. I'm convinced. Now, let's get to the good part. The sentencing.
Finger : I'm afraid I must object, your Ultimate Arbitrariness.
Finger : [Finger continues his prosecution, until Jay suddenly interrupts] Who is this guy, your Maximum Integrity?
Finger : [as Medea now answers Jay's questions, Finger can only take so much] I object, your Stellar Objectivity.
Macro : Objection sustained.
Finger : Thank you, your Unconditional Supportiveness.
