Transition quotes

• "Boys and girls have different parts, Right? Now listen closely."" (Dad)
• "So, what is your problem anyway? Like, I'm the Overseer's daughter. So what? Like I get any kind of special treatment or anything..." (Amata Almodovar)
• "No, now that is not correct. Tell me what is..." (Mr. Brotch)
• "Remember, Revelation 21:6 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end..." (Dad)

Behind the scenes

• The achievement name, G.O.A.T. Whisperer, is a pun on animal whispering.

Bugs

• PlayStation 3 Xbox 360 A common script bug may manifest when the test fails to start despite the students playing the scribbling animation. A simple reload fixes it.
• PlayStation 3 Xbox 360 Mr. Brotch might not force-greet the player if they knock out any of the characters in the hallway.
