“Dr. Lee: What was that? Why do we rehearse? Why...do we rehearse? You’re out there showboating for five minutes. If I wasn’t able to signal a drum major to back you up, you’d still be out there beating your damn drum!
Sean: Dr. Lee, sir, maybe there’s an explanation. Devon...
Dr. Lee: Do I look like I need you to explain anything right now?
Sean: No, sir.
Dr. Lee: I don’t know what the beef is, but you better grill it up and eat it. Because it is my ass that is on the line.
President Wagner: Now, that is a new beginning. That’s exactly what I’m talking about.
[shakes Devon’s hand]
President Wagner: Great job, son. You are something. You are something special.
Devon: Thank you, sir.
President Wagner: Great job, all of you. Now let’s see Morris Brown top that!
[band cheers]
President Wagner: Some alumni wanna speak with you. There they are. Don’t keep them waiting. New beginning! NEW BEGINNING!
Dr. Lee: Sean, I want you to polish the drums tonight. And I’d better be able to see myself in the surface.
Sean: Yes, sir.
Devon: I left the polisher on the bottom shelf.”

“Sean: Dr. Lee, got a sec?
Dr. Lee: Sure.
Devon: Hey, what’s up, Dr. Lee?
Dr. Lee: Mr. Miles.
Devon: Well, I was wondering—actually we were wondering—if you needed any entrance cadences for the Classic. Not that I’m trying to get back on the line or anything, I just want you to check ‘em out.
Dr. Lee: Oh...let me see.
Sean: Alright...the concept was all Devon’s.
Devon: Yeah, but my man Sean here had the structure on lock.
Sean: But the snare part, all the sticking...that’s the kid.
Dr. Lee: What, you two a couple now?
Devon: You got an old-school feel to it, but sometimes you’re gonna have to take it back.
Dr. Lee: It’s not a bad idea...not a bad idea at all.”

“Dr. Lee: We’re gonna try something a little different this year. A little of my old school...with a little of your new. Honoring the past, and present at the same time. That’s what our new direction is all about...bridging the gap. Our new piece for the B.E.T. Big Southern Classic...was arranged by two of your very own...
[looks at Devon and Sean]
Dr. Lee: Mr. Devon Miles, and Mr. Sean Taylor.
[band cheers]
Dr. Lee: This piece is very complicated, and is not half as complicated as the formations are gonna be. We don’t have any time to waste here people, so as you would say...let’s get crunkin’.”

“Dr. Lee: Devon.
Devon: Yes, sir.
Dr. Lee: You wanna give ‘em a little taste of what they’re gonna get on next season? [Devon gets excited] That is if it’s okay with your section leader.
[Devon looks at Sean]
Sean: Mini-Me, I knew you couldn’t stay away!
[shakes hands with Devon]”
Devon: Yes, sir.

“Sean: Dr. Lee...Dr. Lee, just wanted to catch you before rehearsals. I was thinking that instead of promoting a P2 to replace Devon, we could just keep the snare line at nine.
Dr. Lee: And how long have you been thinking that?
Sean: Just this morning.
Dr. Lee: Are you sure? [Sean nods his head yes] I thought maybe it was the day you showed us all he couldn’t read, or was it the night that he took your solo, I don’t know. But since you heard him play, you decided that the line or perhaps maybe, just you, would be better off without him. Remember when I first made you section leader?
[Sean nods his head yes]
Dr. Lee: You were sweating bullets wondering how you could lead this loud, passionate group of your peers. And I said you would be fine. You know why?
Sean: You said I loved the sound of the line more than the sound of my own drum.
Dr. Lee: Yes. And you lost sight of that. And that’s okay ‘cause we all lose sight of things. But if you don’t get it together, Mr. Taylor, you’re gonna have a difficult time leading the Senate whether Devon is on it or not.”
