Steven Hyde : [the first circle] Is Red still thinking of giving you the car, man?
Michael Kelso : Even if we do get it, we're gonna need serious gas money because the Cruiser's a boat.
Eric Forman : I know the Cruiser's a boat. This whole gas shortage bites!
Fez : Who's getting a boat?
Steven Hyde : There's no such thing as a gas shortage, man! Its all fake! The oil companies control everything! Like, I heard about this guy who invented a car that runs on water, man! It's got a fiberglass, air-cooled engine and it runs on water!
Fez : So, it is a boat?
Steven Hyde : No! It's a car, only you put water in the tank instead of gas!
Michael Kelso : [laughing] I haven't heard of this car. Hey, Jackie's good for gas money!
Eric Forman : You are such a whore!
Fez : When does the boat get here, whore?

Donna Pinciotti : Eric, relax. We've lived next door to each other forever. You could've had me when I was four.
Eric Forman : Really? And there I was all day long on the Hippity Hop.

[First scene of the series: May 17, 1976. 8:47 p.m. The gang is in Forman's basement]
Steven Hyde : Eric, it is time.
Eric Forman : Why don't you do it?
Steven Hyde : It's your house.
Michael Kelso : *Your* house!
Steven Hyde : [points upward] Listen to them up there. The party has reached critical mass. In ten minutes, there will be no more beer opportunities.
Eric Forman : If my Dad catches me copping beers, he'll kill me!
Steven Hyde : I'm willing to take that risk.
Michael Kelso : Don't worry about it! Just remain calm, keep moving...
Donna Pinciotti : And, above all, don't get sucked into my Dad's hair.
Eric Forman : What's wrong with your Dad's hair?
Donna Pinciotti : Just don't look at it.
Steven Hyde : [grabs Eric's face] And, Eric: cold. Definitely cold.
[Eric nods. Hyde pats him on the shoulder. Eric begins to run up the stairs. He pauses, looks back down, and continues]

Donna Pinciotti : Oh, have I told you how incredibly attractive you are, Eric?
Eric Forman : No.
Michael Kelso : You told me he was cute.
Donna Pinciotti : No, I didn't.
Michael Kelso : I remember, because you said not to say anything in front of Eric.

[Eric's car battery is dead]
Randy : So, what? You want a battery? 'Cause I can get you a battery.
Eric Forman : Are they cheap, or possibly free?
Randy : Thirty-two bucks, minimum.
Michael Kelso : All right, I'll tell you what. We'll trade you our battery, plus five bucks, for one of your batteries.
