- Dustin Henderson: Holy shit - you're a nerd!
- Erica Sinclair: Come again?
- Dustin Henderson: You... are... a... nerd!
- Erica Sinclair: Okay, you better take that back, nerd!
- Dustin Henderson: Can't put the truth back in the box.
- Erica Sinclair: But it's not the truth.
- Dustin Henderson: Let's examine the facts, shall we? Fact one: you're a math whiz, apparently...
- Erica Sinclair: That was a pretty straightforward equation.
- Dustin Henderson: Fact two: you're a political junkie...
- Erica Sinclair: Just because I don't agree with communism as an ideology...
- Dustin Henderson: [holding up her backpack] Fact number three: you LOVE 'My Little Pony.'
- Erica Sinclair: And what does 'My Little Pony' have to do with this?
- Dustin Henderson: Let's recall the ponies' latest adventure, shall we? The evil centaur team and Tyrek turns Applejack into a dragon at Midnight Castle, and Megan and the other ponies have to use Moochik's magic to defeat his rainbow of darkness, saving them from a lifetime of enslavement. All the pink in the world can't disguise the irrefutable fact that centaurs and castles and dragons and magic are all standard nerd tropes. Ergo, 'My Little Pony' is nerdy, ergo, you, Erica, are a nerd.
- Erica Sinclair: And how do YOU know so much about 'My Little Pony?'
- Dustin Henderson: Because, I'm a nerd.
- [finishes shutting off the fan]
- Dustin Henderson: Let's go... Nerd.
- Billy Hargrove: [Mindflayer speaking through Billy] And we're going to end you and when you are gone we are going to end your friends.
- Eleven: [screams] No!
- Billy Hargrove: And then we are going to end... everyone.
- [Billy sheds tear]
- Eleven: [screams] Get away!
- Murray Bauman: [translating for Alexei speaking to Hopper] He says he likes your courage you remind him of a fat Rambo.
- Murray Bauman: [translating in Russian] It's all the same. Sugar on ice. No difference.
- Dr. Alexei: [in Russian] Tell that stupid man it is not the same in the slightest, and I would like the cherry I requested.
