{31314}{31406}Okay, what verb that we used|today is the most powerful?
{31410}{31472}- Die.|- Piss.
{31475}{31530}Oh, you so stupid!
{31581}{31649}- Choose.|- Choose.
{31652}{31694}- What's your name?|- Callie.
{31698}{31754}Callie, why?
{31757}{31827}Because that's the difference between|owning your life and being afraid.
{31831}{31870}Saying "l choose"|no matter what.
{31874}{31918}You mean, like a guy's got|a gun to your head...
{31922}{31986}and he's pulling the trigger|and you say, "l choose to die"?
{31988}{32107}No, you ain't choosin' to die,|but you can choose to die|without screaming, right?
{32111}{32162}I mean, you could always|choose somethin'.
{32166}{32218}- Not where I live.|- Shit.
{32222}{32271}Did you read that somewhere|in this class?
{32343}{32482}No. ln our class we readin' this book|called My Darling, My Hamburger.
{32486}{32526}- From this.|- My what?
{32530}{32598}- My Darling, My Hamburger.|- Hamburger?
{32643}{32725}Possessive pronoun, noun,|possessive pronoun.
{32729}{32794}- Oh, watch it, girl.|- Let's see.
{32798}{32843}E-Excuse me.
{32847}{32890}- Excuse me, Miss Johnson.|- Uh-- Oh, yes.
{32893}{32969}Would you stop by the principaI's office|before your next class, please?
{32973}{33048}Mr Grandey would like|to speak to you.
{33051}{33123}The principal!
{33126}{33206}Oooh, White Bread in trouble!
{33689}{33755}Yes. I'll talk to you later.
{33758}{33817}Bye-bye.
{33820}{33913}Miss Johnson, this is an office.|We knock before we enter.
{33941}{33990}Oh, I'm sorry.
{33993}{34026}Please.
{34169}{34278}Now, Miss Johnson,|I'm taking into consideration|the fact that you're new...
{34281}{34378}and therefore don't know that teaching|karate is against school policy...
{34381}{34475}and can lead to a lawsuit|in case of an injury.
{34479}{34554}But you can avoid this kind of error--|you simply follow the curriculum...
{34557}{34614}dictated by|the Board of Education.
{34689}{34792}Well, um, sir, that's|almost impossible, um--
{34795}{34881}Most of my students don't|even know what a verb is.
{34885}{34923}lf you're going to teach them,
{34926}{35040}I'm sure there's a better sentence|than "We choose to die."
{35043}{35122}I'm sure there are, but I--|I-l needed a sentence that|would get their attention...
{35125}{35233}- Mmm.|- and, well, it had to|be better than this.
{35286}{35369}Miss Johnson, that is the approved|curriculum for second period.
{35373}{35424}Your class.
{35427}{35509}Now, I know the newer the teacher,|the smarter she is,
{35512}{35644}but I-I'm afraid you're just|going to have to go along|with our policies,
{35648}{35716}even if you don't|agree with them.
{35768}{35823}- All right?|- Mm-hmm.
{35854}{35901}What a fuckin' idiot.
{36024}{36081}- Griffith.|- Don't let them get to you.
{36085}{36160}I'm not. I-ln fact, I'm about to|challenge the entire curriculum.
{36163}{36290}- lf I could just find the paper|in the Xerox room.|- You can't. There isn't any.
{36293}{36354}- What do you mean?|- I mean there isn't any.
{36357}{36457}I mean, we're out of Xerox paper and art|paper and we're short on pencils.
{36461}{36554}But we do have plenty of students.|I guess that, uh, balances things out.
{36619}{36654}Thanks.
{36837}{36892}Another fuckin' idiot.
{36895}{36965}No, I can't run, I can't hide|from all this pressure
{36968}{37042}lf I sell out, that means|I'm coppin' to a lesser charge
{37045}{37116}- And whenever there's a will|baby, there's a way|- Shit!
{37119}{37189}Each one teach one I always say|the murder rate is risin'
{37193}{37290}Society ain't scarin' me|Life is like a puzzle|Ain't no tellin' when they'll bury me
{37293}{37385}- Problems, problems|How are we gonna solve 'em|- So, what's on today's lesson plan?
{37388}{37482}A little kickboxing?|Some, uh, target practice, huh?
{37486}{37558}No. My own little|secret weapon.
{37562}{37628}Problems, problems|How are we gonna solve 'em
{37713}{37802}Okay, so, "never" is--
{37806}{37857}- lt's a verb!|- Adverb! Adverb!|- Adverb! Adverb!
{37861}{37911}Adverb! Fantastic!
{37914}{37970}- Whoo!|- You guys'll be reading poetry soon.
{37974}{38031}- You guys are sharp.|- Oh, my--

{38311}{38375}- Sit down.|- Honourable sensei. Hmm.
{38377}{38470}lt's obvious that "homeboy"|is a noun.
{38525}{38570}Noun is correct!
{38574}{38640}Well, give me my damn candy bar.
{38643}{38677}- Whoo!|- Thank you.
{38681}{38758}Boy, poetry will be a piece|of cake for this crowd.
{38762}{38859}Yo, how come you keep sayin' poetry?|What's poetry got to do with this shit?
{38862}{38927}Poetry? WelI--
{38931}{38998}Because if you can read poetry,|you can read just about anything, hon.
{39018}{39088}- When you're ready for poetry,|you're ready for bear.|- I say bring on the bear!
{39092}{39171}- I'm always ready for bear. Shit.|- I'm always ready to see you bare.
{39175}{39272}- Whoa!|- Oh, shut up, you stupid!|- Oh, yeah? Ohh! Ohh!
{39275}{39373}Well, okay, here's the bear.
{39400}{39449}So what the fuck is that?
{39452}{39591}- I just happen to have copies|of-of-- of a poem...|- Wait for me! Shit!
{39594}{39682}- That's okay.|- written by the greatest poet.
{39686}{39734}My Darling, My Hamburger.|How's that?
{39799}{39843}- Okay, here's the deal.|- She was joking about the bear.
{39847}{39948}When we finish this assignment,|I am gonna take...

{40445}{40495}- You're kiddin'.|- For real?
{40499}{40568}- And we don't gotta pay for it?|- Huh?
{40572}{40639}- And we don't gotta pay for it?|- Not a penny.
{40643}{40714}So then, who pays?
{40718}{40776}The Board of Education.
{40780}{40830}- Lord, did you hear that?|- I don't believe it.
{40869}{40946}- Sound good?|- Hey!
{41005}{41049}That's bullshit, man!
{41093}{41128}I'm sorry?
{41176}{41246}Since when has the Board of Education|done anything for us, huh?
{41250}{41318}Yeah, man, we fuckin'|barely get lunch.

{43518}{43571}Well, hey, go for it.
{43575}{43657}No, but I gotta find a gimmick|first, you know. Something|that'll grab their attention.
{43661}{43710}- Who's your favourite poet, Griffith?|- My favourite?
{43713}{43781}- Oh, there are so many.|How do I choose?|- I'm serious.
{43785}{43849}Mmm. Serious. Okay.

{43960}{44017}Well, I don-- He's n-- You know,|he's not for everybody.
{44020}{44090}I mean, he's a little|long-winded, don't you think?
{44093}{44146}I suppose that's 'cause|he wrote drunk.
{44150}{44192}He had a drinking problem?
{44195}{44251}Well, the guy's Welsh.|There ain't a lot to do there.
{44255}{44309}I thought he was from Minnesota.
{44312}{44388}You know, if the guy's your|favourite poet, you might want|to read up on him a little bit.
{44392}{44442}He was Welsh and|he drank himself to death.
{44445}{44521}Dead? He's not dead.|I saw him yesterday on MTV.
{44579}{44635}You saw Dylan Thomas on MTV.
{44669}{44711}No. Bob Dylan.
{44714}{44768}Oh--
{44772}{44846}-Bob Dylan? Ohh!|-He looked dead. He looked dead.

{45743}{45829}ln the jingle-jangle morning|I'll come following you"
{45832}{45879}- Good.|- All right.
{45882}{45926}- Yes.|- What does that mean?
{45930}{45986}What do you think it means?
{45989}{46036}What, some guy's|got a tambourine...
{46039}{46121}and this other guy wants him to|play it 'cause he can't sleep.
{46125}{46188}- Okay.|- Yeah, but how come he want|to play the tambourine?
{46192}{46256}Don't he got a radio or somethin'?|You know what I'm sayin'?
{46258}{46377}Well, you kn-- That's a good point.|I mean, i-i-it's-- it's a weird choice.
{46381}{46484}So, what if I told you|that Mr Tambourine Man...
{46487}{46529}is a code name?
{46532}{46612}- A code name for what?|- James Bond.
{46616}{46676}- A drug dealer.|- ls it?
{46680}{46724}Well, a lot of people think so.
{46727}{46801}You know, this song is from the '60s,|when you couldn't sing about drugs,
{46805}{46855}so they had to make up codes.
{46858}{46990}So what was the code?|What does "Hey, Mr Tambourine Man|Play a song for me" mean?
{46993}{47066}- Well, you figure--|- "Play a song for me"|means "give me the stuff."
{47069}{47135}Yeah, it's like that nigger|been out drinkin' all night|and smokin' some shit...
{47138}{47195}and everybody broke out on his|ass, you know what I'm sayin'?
{47199}{47296}And he's high-- he's still high,|but he's kinda low and shaky.|You know-- "jingle-jangle."
{47300}{47378}Yeah, and he needs something, like|a big hit of crack or cocaine and shit.
{47381}{47430}He's crazy, okay?
{47433}{47505}So, what do you think, Emilio?|Do you think that Raul is right?
{47568}{47666}- All right, it's too|personal to discuss.|- What?
{47669}{47749}You mean you choose not to|participate in the discussion?
{47752}{47831}- Boy's too slick.|- Not about somethin' so personal.
{47950}{48010}Wanna draw for it?
{48013}{48062}What?
{48066}{48155}High card, you don't have to|discuss anything.
{48197}{48269}Why do I gotta draw for it?|That's the way it is now.
{48713}{48773}Listen to this.
{48776}{48862}Name one of the most influential|presidents of the 20th century.
{48866}{48934}- Roosevelt.|- Simple, right?
{48937}{49021}Wrong.|A history teacher's nightmare.
{49057}{49106}How about Snoop Doggy Dogg|for an answer?
{49110}{49192}Joe Montana. Winston Churchill.
{49237}{49317}But this-- this is the best.
{49320}{49416}"l will not answer this question on the|grounds that it is culturally biased...
{49419}{49477}against individuals|such as myself."
{49531}{49607}Actually, for this answer I'm|gonna give him partial credit.
{49657}{49718}Louanne, you lose your|sense of humour, it's over.
{49752}{49806}Uh, here.|New pictures of the rug rats.
{49810}{49884}- Oh, God. People are supposed|to ask first, Griffith.|- Shut up.
{49939}{50014}Ohh. They look like Maggie.|Thank God.
{50018}{50102}Oh, I don't know. Harry with his thumb|in his mouth, he kinda looks like me.
{50106}{50178}ls that his thumb?|I thought that was a cigarette.
{50181}{50234}- How is Maggie?|- Good.
{50237}{50286}She wants you to come over|for dinner.

{50433}{50484}- I remember.|- Yeah.
{50543}{50646}I remember too. That's why it's|hard for me to come to dinner.
{50706}{50754}- Seeing anybody?|- No.
{50800}{50858}How do you do that? You walk around|with a bag over your head?
{50862}{50928}- No.|- Louanne, it's over six months.
{50931}{50976}I'm not ready, Hal.

{51181}{51301}You know, he was my best friend,|Louanne. "Was" is the operative word.
{51336}{51392}He isn't worth your spit.
{51605}{51653}What was that for?
{51657}{51739}Just tell Maggie|she's a lucky lady, Griffith.
{51742}{51830}Yeah, when they made me they|broke the mold. Both of them.
{51934}{51981}- Good morning, ladies.|- Good morning.

{55922}{56003}Raul knows that if you make a deal|with Emilio and you fuck up on him,
{56007}{56051}you get your locker smashed in|with your head.
{56054}{56114}Everybody knows that.
{56117}{56174}Well, maybe they'll all have|time to think about it...
{56177}{56218}before they get to|the locker-smashing stage.
{56222}{56293}They're gonna fight,|no matter what they tell you.

{58110}{58195}We got a reputation to protect.|You a Marine. You understand.
{58199}{58249}Like, if America didn't stand up|everyone would attack it.
{58252}{58326}Well, in our neighbourhood if you don't|stand up you can't walk down the street,

{64403}{64479}I warned Raul to|stay out of trouble.
{64483}{64562}He's first in our family to|maybe graduate high school.
{64565}{64639}- So he gonna get punished big|for what he done.|- N--
{64687}{64725}Don't you worry about that.
{64728}{64797}But he didn't do anything wrong.
{64838}{64890}-But he expelled for three days.|-l know. No, I know.
{64894}{65005}But he didn't start the fight. He was|defending himself from a bigger boy.
{65009}{65070}He was protecting himself.
{65074}{65140}- Uh, why they send him home?|- lt's just school policy.
{65144}{65222}I-I-lt gives the other boy|time to cool down.
{65225}{65284}Actually,
{65287}{65389}I'm here because I just wanted|to tell you both personally...
{65392}{65487}what a pleasure it's been having|Raul in my class this semester.
{65490}{65548}You must be very proud.

{65670}{65741}He's, um--|Well, he's very bright...
{65745}{65826}and funny, articulate.
{65875}{65949}The truth is, he's--|he's one of my favourites.

{67275}{67354}"l will not go down underground
{67358}{67422}'Cause somebody tells me|that death's comin' 'round"
{67452}{67509}Okay, this is another|Dylan poem.
{67512}{67613}Now, is that a code, or does|that just mean what it says?
{67822}{67871}"And I will not carry myself|down to die
{67875}{67926}When I go to my grave|My head will be high"
{67929}{67988}"My head will be high."|What does that mean?
{68058}{68088}Anybody.
{68172}{68234}Nobody.
{68237}{68294}ls there something|I should know?
{68329}{68370}Yeah. I'll tell you.

{69142}{69195}- What?|- Hey, listen.
{69199}{69336}Nobody's forcing you to be here.|You have a choice.|You can stay, or you can leave.
{69339}{69410}Lady, why are you playin' this|game? We don't have a choice.
{69413}{69494}You don't have a choice? You don't have|a choice on whether or not you're here?
{69498}{69578}No. lf we leave, we don't|get to graduate. lf we stay,|we gotta put up with you.
{69582}{69631}Well, that's a choice, isn't it?|You have a choice.
{69635}{69685}You either don't graduate|or you have to put up with me.
{69688}{69754}lt may not be a choice you like,|but it is a choice.
{69758}{69833}Man, you don't understand nothin'. l|mean, you don't come from where we live.
{69837}{69930}- You-- You're not bussed here.|- Do you have a choice|to get on that bus?
{69934}{69990}Man, you come and live in my|neighbourhood for one week...
{69994}{70049}and then you tell me|if you got a choice.
{70052}{70158}There are a lot of people who|live in your neighbourhood who|choose not to get on that bus.
{70162}{70227}What do they choose to do?|They choose to go out and sell drugs.
{70230}{70309}They choose to go out and kill people.|They choose to do a lot of other things.
{70312}{70366}But they choose not to|get on that bus.

{70846}{70897}Why do you care anyway?|You just here for the money.
{70900}{70962}Because I make a choice to care.|And, honey, the money ain't that good.
{70965}{71022}- Whatever.|- Read it again, Miss Johnson.
{71025}{71118}- What?|- Read those lines you just read again.
{71465}{71508}"l will not go down underground
{71512}{71605}'Cause somebody tells me|that death's comin' 'round"
{71709}{71763}Does that mean|just what it says?
{71798}{71890}No, it don't mean|just what it says.
{71894}{71954}Because...
{71958}{72014}you wouldn't go|under the ground...
{72017}{72107}if someone told you|death was comin'.
{72111}{72196}But you would go into the ground|if you were already dead.
{72374}{72454}Do the rest of you|agree with that?
{72634}{72679}Well, I kinda agree with it,
{72683}{72776}but I think|it just means that...
{72779}{72821}he ain't gonna help death out,|you know?
{72825}{72889}lt's not like he's just gonna|lay down and wait for it.
{72892}{73002}I think he's gonna choose-- No,|I think he's gonna make the choice--
{73005}{73050}to die hard.
{73105}{73149}Mm-hmm.
{73152}{73209}- Yeah, I agree with that.|- Yeah, me too.
{73212}{73258}- That's what it sounds like to me.|- Okay.
{73262}{73347}Well, what about, uh,|the rest of it? Um--
{73350}{73398}"When I go to my grave|My head will be high"
{73401}{73466}"Head will be high."|What does that mean?
{73470}{73562}- You're gonna die with pride.|- Right.

{74141}{74239}You went to RauI's house last|night, and Gusmaro's too, right?
{74242}{74304}Mm-hmm.
{74308}{74360}Yeah, that's what they told me.
{74390}{74450}That's cool.

{76137}{76233}Hey, get the fuck|out of there, man. Look at you!|You look like my grandma, man.
{76302}{76363}- R-E-S-P-E-C-T|- Miss Johnson,
{76366}{76440}the-- the School Board would have every|right to insist on your dismissal.
{76444}{76519}You informed no one.|You got no permission slips.
{76523}{76629}Oh, but there was no one to inform.|All the kids just decided to go to|the amusement park at the last minute.
{76633}{76697}And then they let me come along.
{76700}{76776}- Did they pay for you?|- No, I paid for them.
{76845}{76936}I was just so moved|by the invitation.
{77021}{77085}This wasn't, by any chance,
{77088}{77199}their reward for reading|poetry, was it, Miss Johnson?
{77202}{77315}ln my class, Mr Grandey,|poetry is its own reward.
{77439}{77507}Angela, would you read|the first line?
{77511}{77615}"Appetizers. Freshly cut bay shrimp|grilled to perfection."
{77619}{77705}- This is a Xerox of a menu.|- That is correct.
{77709}{77805}lt's from The Flowering Peach,|the best restaurant in town.
{77809}{77883}- Ever hear of it?|- Yeah, we heard of it.
{77887}{77941}lt's supposed to be like|some special restaurant or somethin'.
{77945}{77997}Mm-hmm.|So, does it sound good?
{78042}{78149}Because whoever wins the, uh,|the-- the Dylan-Dylan contest...
{78152}{78209}- The what?|- goes there for dinner with me.
{78212}{78283}Hey, what's the Dylan-Dylan|contest about?
{78287}{78331}Well.
{78400}{78456}There's Bob Dylan,
{78460}{78521}who we've been reading.
{78525}{78569}And then...
{78573}{78677}there's Dylan Thomas,
{78680}{78721}who also wrote poems.
{78725}{78808}lf you can find the poem|written by Dylan Thomas...
{78812}{78929}that is like a poem|written by Bob Dylan,

{79383}{79441}ln the jingle-jangle morning
{79445}{79529}I'll come following you
{79820}{79942}Yo, every fuckin' poem Dylan Thomas|wrote is about death, man.
{79946}{79999}Now, how we supposed to know|which one to write?
{80002}{80083}"The sniper laid him low,|and strewed his brains.
{80087}{80136}One would not think|the greenness of this valley...
{80139}{80187}could let a day be sick|with so much blood."
{80190}{80270}Man, that's some Rambo-Schwarzenegger|bullshit you found.
{80274}{80318}- That's how it's supposed to be, right?|- No.
{80322}{80375}- There's supposed to be killing shit.|- But it-- But it don't--
{80378}{80444}But it don't even mean the same as|"l will not go under the ground."
{80491}{80549}Now you're some sort of|poetic critic, now, right?
{80552}{80605}- Oh, well, it don't.|- Thank you.
{80609}{80670}Okay. Listen to this.
{80721}{80789}"Do not go gentle|into that good night.
{80792}{80878}Old age should burn|and rave at close of day.

{81011}{81062}Where's the code?|Where's the death?
{81065}{81129}Night. All that stuff|about night. That's death.
{81167}{81217}So it's "Don't go gentle|into that good death."
{81221}{81305}Yeah, but I think "good"|is sarcastic.
{81309}{81409}When he say, "Do not go gentle,"|that's like sayin', "Don't go easy."
{81412}{81498}- So it's the same as|"l will not go down."|- We just won us|a motherfucking chicken.
{81501}{81559}Shh.
{81562}{81631}This is the life
{81635}{81731}Everyone has to be somewhere

{83225}{83293}But there are no losers in this class.|You guys did great.
{83297}{83352}You all get to pick a prize|from the box.
{83355}{83433}How come they get a prize|when they got the wrong answer?
{83437}{83521}Well, because sometimes|it takes a lot of wrong answers|to get to the right one.
{83525}{83603}Hey, everyone can't be right,|'cept for us!
{83664}{83710}Come on up.
{83907}{83964}- Miss Johnson?|- Hey, Callie.

{84060}{84117}- I can't go.|- Why?
{84121}{84191}Because I have to work at this|supermarket every night until|June and I already told them--
{84195}{84239}Oh, isn't there any way|to get out of it?
{84242}{84328}No. Because of the schedule|and everything, I have to do it.
{84332}{84425}- But thank you anyway.|- Well, o-okay. Well.
{84428}{84489}Shoot.
{84492}{84601}Well, no, it's okay. lf you|can't come to dinner, then, uh,|well, we'll bring dinner to you.
{84604}{84691}- Really?|- Mm-hmm.
{84695}{84763}- Thank you.|- I'm taking orders, Miss Roberts.
{84995}{85037}I couldn't find|a parking space.
{85040}{85085}lt's okay.|I just got here myself.
{85088}{85149}- Oh, you look very handsome.|- How 'bout this jacket?
{85152}{85197}lt's fantastic.
{85200}{85248}Go ahead, touch it.|lt's real leather.
{85251}{85317}- Ooh!|- Hey, where's Callie?
{85321}{85374}Oh, she had to work.|Where's Durrell?
{85377}{85463}- Oh, he had to work too.|- Oh.
{85466}{85553}Well, I guess it's just|you and me, handsome.
{85557}{85601}I guess so.
{85635}{85695}Oh. Ladies first.
{85699}{85743}Thank you.
{85915}{85979}- Hey, are you sure they got chicken?|- Mm-hmm.
{86083}{86152}May I tell you a little|about this evening's specials?
{86155}{86285}The chef is featuring foie gras|with smoked duck and figs|on a hill of bulgar.
{86288}{86371}Uh, salmon tartar|in potato gaufrette...
{86375}{86442}over wild mushrooms,|and fennel salad.
{86446}{86499}Uh, for the entree|we're featuring...
{86502}{86593}a complex shellfish|pan roast with orso,
{86597}{86688}a touch of comfit and a broth|thickened with lobster shell oil.
{86691}{86762}All very, very good.
{86826}{86878}- Could we have a few minutes, please?|- Ah, yes.
{86882}{86937}Thank you.
{86940}{86993}- Are you sure they got chicken?|- Yes.
{86997}{87065}Here. See, it's right there,|sweetie. You see? Poulet.
{87069}{87195}And when the waiter comes back,|you may as well talk to him.
{87199}{87277}lt'll be good practice|for your summer job interviews.
{87280}{87345}I can't talk to that guy. He probably|thinks I'm weird or something.
{87348}{87453}He does not. He can't help|but notice your natural charm.
{87457}{87548}You just look him straight|in the eye and you talk to him|like you would anyone else.
{87577}{87618}Now, go ahead and call him over.
{87687}{87783}Go ahead. Just give him|a little nod.
{87920}{88004}- Are we ready?|- Okay, I'll have the chicken.
{88055}{88100}A whole one.
{88173}{88230}And I'll have the same.
{88234}{88303}And one to go, please.
{88307}{88382}One to go. Thank you.
{88799}{88838}Hey, Miss J?
{88841}{88960}I was wondering maybe, like,|in the next couple of days, if I--
{88963}{89048}- ls everything all right?|- Everything's fine. Thank you.
{89051}{89101}All right.
{89104}{89161}Now don't be mad or nothing,|but I gotta be absent...
{89164}{89227}for a couple of days|without your coming to my house.
{89230}{89297}lt's important.
{89300}{89385}- You'll have to tell me why.|- I got some shit to do.
{89480}{89529}I gotta make some money|to pay back this guy.
{89636}{89700}This doesn't sound important|enough to cut school.
{89702}{89770}lt is. I gotta pay|for this jacket.
{89774}{89829}See, I got it off the street|from this guy for 200 dollars,
{89833}{89877}and he said he'd trust me|for it until Friday.
{89880}{89953}Why did you buy it on the street|instead of in a store?
{89957}{90027}Are you crazy? You know how much|this would cost in a store?
{90030}{90127}I needed a nice jacket and fast,|and I got it from this guy|'cause he cut me a deal...
{90130}{90238}'cause he stole it,|probably.
{90241}{90354}So, are you gonna go out and get|a job or are you gonna go out|and steal too to pay him back?
{90358}{90417}Miss J, I gotta pay him back.
{90421}{90473}He'll kill me.
{90501}{90548}I didn't have nothing to wear!
{90774}{90850}Fine. I'll lend it to you.
{90903}{90964}I can't take your money.|Teachers are poor. Everyone knows that.
{91004}{91062}Well, you don't really|have a choice, do you?
{91065}{91123}lf you don't pay the guy back,|he'll kill you.
{91126}{91217}lf you cut school, I'll tell|your father and he'll kill you.
{91221}{91331}- So I'm your only way out.|- Oh, man.
{91335}{91412}- But I do have one condition.|- Big?
{91415}{91464}- Huge.|- What do you want, interest?
{91467}{91546}- Mm-mmm. Bigger.|- Jesus Christ, what is it?
{91575}{91643}Well.
{91647}{91721}- Would you like dessert?|- No!
{91725}{91795}- Another glass of wine?|- Oh, no, I'm fine. Thank you.
{91799}{91867}- Coffee, perhaps?|- Hey, man, we're talking!
{91957}{92019}So, what's the condition?
{92074}{92161}You have to pay me back|on the day you graduate.
{92219}{92276}But-- But what if|I don't graduate?
{92279}{92362}Well, then you'll never|pay me back the money.
{92365}{92450}But I know that|if you say you will,
{92453}{92518}you'll kill yourself|keeping your word.
{93015}{93093}Well, what do you say?
{93097}{93197}I don't get it. Why do you|care so much if I graduate?
{93200}{93254}Weird, isn't it?
{93392}{93441}All right, I'll pay you back.
{93533}{93601}- You have my word.|- Hey.
{93604}{93669}lt is a very nice jacket.
{93722}{93781}Thank you.
{94249}{94293}- Hey.|- Oh, hi!|- Hi.
{94297}{94353}- How you doin'?|- Oh, good.
{94357}{94440}I think this is the first time I ever|brought food into a supermarket.
{94444}{94525}-Yeah, I can smell it from here.|-Yeah.|-Good. Thanks.
{94528}{94605}Well, Raul says if you don't like it,|he'll take it off your hands.
{94609}{94691}Oh, please.|Like hell he will.
{94695}{94763}Callie, could you help load|in aisle three, please?
{94766}{94884}Be right there. I'm telling you,|this place would fall to pieces|if it wasn't for me.
{94887}{94964}You know, Callie,
{94967}{95012}just between you and me,
{95015}{95141}with your scores, I think you should|consider going into Advanced English.
{95145}{95234}- Oh, but I'm gonna be at Clearview.|You didn't know?|- No.
{95237}{95322}You didn't see my record?|I tell you.
{95325}{95370}No, I-- I didn't know.
{95374}{95439}- Bye now.|- Yeah.
{95496}{95560}ln the middle of a semester?|Are-- Are you moving?
{95562}{95619}No. I'm pregnant.
{95623}{95707}And since I'm startin' to show,|they thought it was time, you know?
{95770}{95893}- Who thought it was time?|- The school. They don't let you|stay there if you're pregnant.
{95897}{95979}But they told me they have this|really good programme at Clearview|for, like, teenage mothers.
{95983}{96077}And they teach you stuff like parenting|and nutrition, all kinds of stuff.
{96080}{96141}So I thought it would|be good for me, you know?
{96145}{96199}- Yeah.|- Aisle three.
{96238}{96322}"Degrade first the arts|if you'd mankind degrade."
{96325}{96404}Hey, that's the spray can poem.
{96480}{96568}-Hey, hey, what's the code word?|-The code word is "great rides|and great prizes."
{96572}{96637}I'm keeping it undercover|But comin' soon, I surmises
{96694}{96766}Does anybody know where, um,|Durrell and Lionel are today?
{96815}{96905}- Durrell and Lionel.|- No.|- They around.
{96909}{97009}Yeah, so what's the prize we're|gonna get for learning this poem?
{97012}{97099}Learning is the prize.
{97102}{97147}Yeah.
{97150}{97224}Knowing how to read something|and understand it is the prize.
{97227}{97305}Okay? Knowing how to think|is the prize.
{97309}{97389}- I know how to think right now.|- Okay. Well, yeah, well,|you know how to run too.
{97392}{97448}But not the way you|could run if you trained.
{97451}{97520}You know, the mind|is like a muscle.
{97524}{97618}Okay? And if you want it to be really|powerful, you got to work it out. Okay?
{97622}{97734}Each new fact|gives you another choice.
{97737}{97827}Each new idea builds|another muscle, okay?
{97830}{97903}And it's those muscles that are|gonna make you really strong.
{97907}{98003}Those are your weapons,|and in this unsafe world...
{98007}{98060}I want to arm you.
{98063}{98153}- And that's what these poems|are supposed to do?|- Yeah.
{98157}{98217}Hey, try it. You're just|sittin' here anyway.
{98221}{98289}Look. Okay.|lf at the end of the term,
{98292}{98366}you're not faster, stronger|and smarter,
{98370}{98441}you will have lost nothing.
{98445}{98521}But if you are,
{98525}{98643}you'll be that much tougher|to knock down.
{98647}{98780}So what's "Hire idiots to paint|with cold light and hot shade"?
{98811}{98852}They're being sarcastic, Raul.
{98855}{98913}I mean, 'cause you know that light|is supposed to be warm, right?
{98916}{98967}- And shade is supposed to be what?|- Cold?
{98971}{99063}Exactly. But if you go|and hire an idiot to do the job,|he's gonna do it backwards.
{99066}{99120}- Hello.|- There you go.|- Hmm.
{99157}{99221}Don't make a big fuss|about this, Louanne.
{99225}{99302}You have to help me. You have|no idea how bright this girl is.
{99305}{99376}Yes, I do. And there's nothing|I can do about it.
{99379}{99463}Oh! That just makes me crazy!
{99466}{99549}What right do these miserable,|self-righteous sons of bitches|from the Board of Education...
{99552}{99626}have to make a moral judgment|on Callie Roberts?
{99629}{99679}- Do you know--|- Louanne, there are parents|in the next room.
{99683}{99735}Look, I don't c--|I'm gonna fight this ruling.
{99738}{99828}I'm gonna write an open letter|to every newspaper condemning|the entire School Board.
{99832}{99886}- Oh, you can't do that.|- Why not?
{99889}{99982}Well, first of all, the Board|has nothing to do with it.
{100037}{100134}We prefer that these girls go to|the mother-to-be programme at Clearview.
{100225}{100280}Oh, wait a minute.
{100284}{100375}You mean this isn't a rule?|You mean this is your preference?
{100411}{100457}Well, yes.
{100461}{100560}You mean Callie Roberts is free|to go to any school she wants?
{100563}{100671}- lncluding this one?|- Unless she's absent|for more than 30 days.
{100675}{100736}And then she has to wait|until the baby's born|before she can come back here.
{100739}{100877}But, Louanne, once these girls|have babies, very few of them|come back to school anyway.
{100880}{100939}I see.
{100942}{101041}So you make them think|they have to leave.
{101045}{101122}You just push 'em out a little earlier,|make it a little harder,
{101125}{101177}make it a little more hopeless.
{101180}{101234}I do what I have to do...
{101237}{101309}because it is dangerous to have|a pregnant girl in a classroom.
{101312}{101425}lt's not a warning, Louanne. I-lt's|prestige, it's stardom, it's attention.
{101428}{101482}You know, not all these girls|become pregnant by accident.
{101486}{101561}- Pregnancy is contagious.|- Yep, yep
{101564}{101609}- lt's all right|- lt's all right
{101612}{101670}As you may have heard
{101674}{101741}- Yeah|- To smoke a fat one|- To smoke a fat one
{101745}{101805}- And drink a 'Bird|- Drink a Thunderbird
{101809}{101861}- lt's okay|- lt's okay
{101864}{101933}- To play this loud|- Play it loud
{101937}{102031}Mister DJ, don't mean|to sweat you down
{102035}{102081}Who is it?
{102085}{102163}lt's Louanne Johnson,|Callie's second period teacher.
{102269}{102321}Hi.
{102325}{102401}Um, Callie's getting ready|to go to work.
{102404}{102446}- Come on in.|- Thank you.
{102450}{102510}Curiosity killed the cat
{102514}{102557}- Oh.|- Hi.|- Hi, there.
{102560}{102635}- What you doing?|- Watching TV.
{102679}{102754}- What's your name?|- Tyeisha.
{102757}{102835}- Oh, that's a pretty name.|- She just love her TV.
{102839}{102924}Why ain't you in bed?|Come here, baby.
{102927}{103009}Callie? Honey?|Your teacher's here.
{103125}{103197}- Hi.|- Hi.
{103200}{103281}I'm sorry to just bust in|on you like this, but I have|the most wonderful news...
{103284}{103352}and I wanted to come|tell you personally.
{103355}{103430}You do not have to go|to Clearview.
{103433}{103559}There is nothing in the rules that says|you can't stay exactly where you are.
{103563}{103608}But, uh, she already|enrolled in Clearview.
{103611}{103686}Uh, well, that's all right. She-- that--|But she doesn't have to go there.
{103690}{103775}Yeah, but Kimboley wants me|to take the mother-to-be programme|at Clearview, you know.
{103778}{103859}He thought it would be a good|idea if I learned how to take|care of the baby and stuff.
{103914}{103983}I don't understand.
{103986}{104073}Do you not want to stay|at Parkmont?
{104076}{104157}Well, yeah, but I gotta learn how|to take care of us, you know.
{104160}{104219}I mean, we're getting our own|place and everything, so--
{104306}{104381}Callie, just don't throw away|all you can become.
{104425}{104503}Kimboley was so right.|He was so right.
{104506}{104573}He told me that you'd probably|try to talk me out of this.
{104576}{104622}You want to know|what else he said?
{104625}{104688}He said that you probably|don't even like men...
{104692}{104756}and that you're probably not married|and you don't want anybody else to be.
{104759}{104833}That's why you're always|in everybody else's life.
{104926}{105011}Look, I'm not saying|that I agree with him, okay?
{105015}{105084}Well, Kimboley's wrong.
{105088}{105145}I was married...
{105149}{105193}and I was pregnant.
{105256}{105318}So what happened?
{105365}{105428}We got divorced...
{105431}{105505}and I had an abortion.
{105593}{105641}He beat me.
{105708}{105788}Well, sometimes|you start out wrong...
{105792}{105865}and just keep going.
{106202}{106263}Hey, don't touch me.|Oh, get outta here!
{106305}{106378}I'll see you.
{106381}{106443}You took something that|fuckin' belonged to me, se.
{106447}{106518}Man, she came to me|with open arms.
{106522}{106579}Besides, you gotta have|one of these.
{106629}{106674}You're dead.
{106975}{107043}As I walk through the valley|of the shadow of death
{107047}{107123}I take a look at my life|and realize there's nothing left
{107126}{107187}'Cause I've been blastin'|and laughin' so long
{107191}{107266}That even my mama thinks|that my mind is gone
{107270}{107333}I really hate to trip|but I gotta loc
{107336}{107395}As they croak I see myself|in the pistol smoke
{107399}{107488}Fool, I'm the kind of "G"|the little homies wanna be like
{107492}{107565}On my knees in the night|sayin' prayers in the street light
{107569}{107697}Been spendin' most their lives|livin' in a gangsta's paradise
{107700}{107749}- Hey, Miss Johnson.|- Hey!|- Been spendin' most their lives
{107752}{107835}- Haven't seen you guys in a week.|- Livin' in a gangsta's paradise
{107839}{107901}Thought maybe you got lost|on your way to class.
{107904}{107954}I wanted to help you|find your way back.
{107957}{108022}Get on inside.
{108025}{108093}Clean up that pigsty of a room.
{108220}{108289}Hi. I'm Louanne Johnson.|I'm the boys' teacher.
{108293}{108337}I know who you are.
{108341}{108426}You're that white-bread bitch|messin' with my babies' minds.
{108429}{108474}I beg your pardon?
{108477}{108552}My boys don't go to your school|no more, and that's gonna be it.
{108595}{108654}- You took 'em out of school?|- You're damn right I did.
{108657}{108749}I saw what they were bringing|home-- poetry and shit.
{108752}{108867}A waste of time. They got|more important things to worry about.
{108929}{109022}Don't you think that finishing high|school will be valuable to their future?
{109025}{109073}That's not in their future.
{109076}{109169}I ain't raising no doctors and lawyers|here. They got bills to pay.
{109173}{109224}Why don't you just|get on outta here.
{109227}{109323}Go find yourself some other|poor boys to save.
{109649}{109717}Mama! I could stand|some lemonade.
{109863}{109960}"lt is easier|to forgive an enemy...
{109964}{110026}than to forgive a friend.
{110029}{110124}The man who permits you|to injure him...
{110127}{110193}deserves your vengeance.
{110197}{110278}He also will receive it."
{110281}{110348}Wow, who wrote that?|Some Mafia guy?
{110351}{110396}You know, let's go on|with this poem tomorrow.
{110400}{110454}Why don't you-- Take out your work|sheets and do the vocabulary drill.
{110457}{110538}- Say what?|- Oh, man!|- Man, I don't wanna do no vocabulary.
{110542}{110594}I don't wanna do|no damn vocabulary.
{110598}{110650}Then don't.
{110653}{110736}What do you mean?|You mean I have a choice?
{110740}{110830}You're not gonna let me get away with|not learnin' my vocabulary, right?
{110913}{110995}That's right. You have to do|your vocabulary.
{110999}{111063}Words are thoughts|and we can't think without 'em.
{111066}{111148}So-- Please?
{111151}{111239}And so let's just do it, man. She's|gonna be down our back in a minute.
{111243}{111323}- Whatever. She's grouchy.|- Grouch.
{111326}{111391}- Thanks, Louanne.|- Grouch, grouch.
{111395}{111471}Thank you, Louanne.|Such a nice lady, Louanne.
{111528}{111605}What do I do?|What the fuck you want from me?
{111608}{111675}Who, my teacher? You think|I'm gonna fuckin' talk to a teacher?
{111678}{111738}Like they're gonna|really help me, huh? Huh?
{111742}{111816}Teachers aren't gonna|fuckin' help me, okay?
{111820}{111913}Miss Johnson! Miss Johnson,|we gotta talk to you.
{111917}{111988}- There's nothing to talk about, Angela!|- What, are you Superman?
{111992}{112064}ls your ass bulletproof?|ls that what you think? Tell her!
{112068}{112131}- Tell her what you're gonna do.|- What is it?
{112134}{112204}- He's strapped.|- Shut the fuck up!|She don't need to know my business.
{112207}{112276}ls your business dying? No!
{112279}{112349}There's this crackhead named Shorty.|He just came out of jail.
{112352}{112411}He says that I'm his girl and|that Emilio took me from him.
{112415}{112473}And now he wants to kill Emilio.
{112521}{112598}Emilio, if this boy is threatening you,|we can go to the police.
{112601}{112656}Look, this is nothing you|can do anything about.
{112659}{112725}This guy is looking for me to kill me,|and the only way for me to stop him...
{112728}{112788}is for me to kill him first.
{112792}{112847}That's just the way it is,|all right?
{112850}{112931}Wait, Emilio, wait, wait, wait, wait,|no! Can we-- Can we talk about this?
{112934}{112999}- Come to my house.|- Yeah, right.
{113001}{113054}Oh, what?|You're too proud to hide?
{113057}{113134}lt's better to wander|the streets all night?
{113138}{113209}- Come on.|- Please?
{113213}{113257}Please, just go.
{113345}{113417}Go. Go.
{113464}{113523}- Can we drop you?|- Just go.
{113911}{113973}ls this boy your age?
{114047}{114127}- Yeah.|- Does he go to Parkmont?
{114130}{114199}I won't tell you who it is.
{114202}{114247}No, don't.
{114300}{114371}But if you tell Mr Grandey|about him--
{114375}{114503}not about his threatening you,|but about his being on crack--
{114506}{114614}he'll be turned over to the juvenile|court for-- for drug abuse in school.
{114618}{114674}H-He won't serve hard time,
{114677}{114779}but by the time he gets out and|he's detoxed, he-- he will have|gotten over trying to kill you.
{114952}{114997}No, I can't rat on him.
{115000}{115072}Right. Kill him.|That's better.
{115109}{115171}Man,
{115175}{115219}you don't understand.
{115300}{115415}You asked me once how I was|gonna save you from your life.
{115419}{115481}This is how. This moment.
{115521}{115587}Right now.
{115591}{115648}This will make the difference|in your life forever.
{116379}{116424}Emilio?
{116598}{116642}Emilio?
{116952}{117043}- Oh, Mr Grandey.|- ls there a problem, Miss Johnson?
{117047}{117095}- Shouldn't you be in class?|- Yes, I'm late.
{117099}{117212}Um, I just wanted to ask.|Did Emilio Ramirez come|to your office this morning?
{117216}{117277}- Yes.|- Oh, God. Oh, thank God.
{117280}{117352}- Did you talk to him?|- No, I sent him away.
{117355}{117405}You-- What do you mean?
{117455}{117548}- I mean I sent him away.|- Why?
{117551}{117613}Because he didn't knock,|Miss Johnson.
{117617}{117714}- Here we are.|- Because he didn't knock?
{117718}{117820}Yes, Miss Johnson. I'm trying to teach|these children how to live in the world.
{117824}{117901}And in the world, you just don't|burst into someone's office.
{117970}{118038}Because he didn't knock?
{118113}{118166}Damn it!
{118950}{118995}Uh, Louanne.
{119030}{119102}Mr Grandey is with the police.
{119105}{119158}- Yes?|- Um.
{119161}{119247}They just found Emilio Ramirez|three blocks from the school.
{119250}{119315}He was shot this morning.
{119371}{119415}ls he dead?
{119488}{119574}- He's dead.|- I'm very sorry.
{119617}{119670}Um...
{119674}{119723}are you going to tell them now?
{119784}{119841}Do you think that's wise?
{119913}{119963}Yeah.
{119967}{120052}Well, uh, perhaps if you talk to them|a little bit about death...
{120055}{120131}and-- and-- and what it means.
{120161}{120219}What would you like me to say?
{120223}{120291}That if you don't want to die,|remember to knock?
{120326}{120389}- That's not fair.|- What is?
{120805}{120860}Bad news.
{120895}{120969}Emilio was shot this morning.
{121013}{121074}ls he dead?
{121077}{121171}- Yes, baby, he's dead.|- Oh, no.
{122310}{122430}Yo! Listen up. Miss Johnson|got something to say!
{122433}{122516}- Shh.|- Thank you.
{122520}{122600}I just want to say...
{122603}{122678}l, uh-- I won't, um--
{122734}{122808}I will not be here next year.
{122811}{122856}I'm not coming back.
{122895}{122950}How come?|ls it something we did?
{122953}{123019}No. No, no, no. No. Um--
{123093}{123145}I-l never intended to stay.
{123149}{123213}Um, this was an unexpected job.
{123217}{123311}So if you knew you wasn't|gonna stay, how come you made me|promise what I promised?
{123349}{123393}I--
{123442}{123515}At that time,|I thought I would stay.
{123519}{123568}So how come you're leaving?
{123618}{123662}I just...
{123696}{123755}have my reasons,|certain reasons.
{123758}{123857}ls it because it's too sad for you,|what happened to Emilio?
{124199}{124246}Maybe.
{124250}{124312}And Durrell and Lionel|and Callie. And I just--
{124316}{124360}I just think that--
{124476}{124556}So if you love us so much and you're|so interested in our graduating,
{124559}{124632}- how come you choose to leave?|- Yeah.
{124635}{124751}You sad about Durrell and Callie|and Emilio and Lionel, but we're here.
{124754}{124841}What about us, huh?|None of us make you feel happy?
{124845}{124955}We been working hard and we stayed|in school, man. What about us?
{124958}{125011}- Yeah.|- Yeah.
{125375}{125453}Why are you packing up today|when tomorrow is your last day?
{125482}{125527}Oh, just gettin' a head start.
{125564}{125609}Oh, I see.
{125707}{125815}What you did, when you|gave me the 200 dollars?
{125880}{126007}That was the nicest thing|anybody ever did for me.
{126010}{126069}I don't know anybody else|who would give 200 dollars...
{126073}{126135}to a Mexican kid|on his word of honour.
{126278}{126337}S-So you gotta let me|pay you back.
{126426}{126501}Even if I don't graduate,|all right?
{126504}{126569}Why wouldn't you graduate?
{126610}{126681}Ain't no other teacher|gonna give me no "A."
{126684}{126749}Yes, they will, if you work for them|the way you worked for me.
{126752}{126813}No, but it was different with you.|You gave me an "A" to start with.
{126817}{126922}- I didn't have to earn it.|I just had to keep it.|- Are you kidding?
{126925}{127034}Keeping an "A" is harder than getting an|"A." Almost anyone can get an "A" once.
{127038}{127112}But keeping it,|that's an accomplishment.
{127116}{127185}- You think so?|- Oh, I know so.
{127189}{127252}Do you realize the work|you did this term?
{127255}{127341}Do you realize that|the poetry that we read...
{127345}{127392}is given to people in college?
{127396}{127448}- ln college.|- These same poems?
{127451}{127531}- Yes.|- But they weren't even so hard.
{127534}{127580}So, you see?
{127632}{127689}Keep working.
{127693}{127749}You'll graduate.
{127816}{127883}I might even see you|in college.
{127886}{127931}What do you think?
{128338}{128418}I feel so bad about leaving|I can hardly breathe.
{128422}{128520}I know, but-- Oh, what the hell.|You're right.
{128524}{128633}You gotta be crazy to stay here|and teach these programme classes.
{128636}{128699}There's no money.|lt's killer work.
{128758}{128814}Why do you stay?
{128818}{128877}Why do I smoke?|I'm crazy.
{128880}{128927}You need any more help?
{128930}{128985}No. Thanks.|I'll see you tomorrow.
{128989}{129033}Yeah. Bye.
{129078}{129151}This is the life
{129154}{129248}Everyone has to be somewhere
{129306}{129371}Oh
{129375}{129515}I am here
{129580}{129680}This is the life
{129683}{129748}This is the life
{129781}{129882}'Cause this is my life
{129885}{130015}This is my life
{130052}{130097}Hi.
{130165}{130264}Well. Welcome back.
{130268}{130359}This is the 29th day,|the last day I have to come back.
{130363}{130438}So, am I still okay|for next term?
{130468}{130512}Yeah.
{130558}{130615}Did, uh,
{130619}{130713}did you come back because|it was your last day or did somebody...
{130717}{130795}ask you to come today|to talk me into staying?
{130799}{130865}Well, it was both, really.
{130869}{130975}See, 'cause I wasn't really sure|what I wanted to do...
{130978}{131048}until I heard that you|were leaving and--
{131051}{131113}'Cause up until then,|I don't know, I thought...
{131117}{131198}that you'd always be here|for me, you know.
{131201}{131253}You know, whenever I came back.
{131291}{131351}But then Raul tells me|that you're leaving...
{131354}{131399}just like that.
{131486}{131542}And I realized that this|was my last chance.
{131594}{131642}And I decided--
{131673}{131747}We decided that...
{131750}{131805}we're not gonna just|let you leave like that.
{131874}{131935}Yeah, we realized|like the poem said:
{131939}{132005}You can't give in.
{132008}{132061}"You can't go gentle.
{132065}{132163}- You got to rage against|the dying of the light."|- Yeah.
{132167}{132220}Yeah, you gotta go for yours.|You know that, right?
{132224}{132297}- Yeah.|- You gotta kick it in and get it up.
{132300}{132379}Wait a minute, wait a minute.|No, no. Wait, wait. I'm not giving in.
{132382}{132468}Um, this is my choice.
{132472}{132550}I have no reason to "rage|against the dying of the light."
{132553}{132625}'Cause you're not the one who's raging.|We're the ones who are raging.
{132628}{132683}See, 'cause we see you|as being our light.
{132736}{132829}- What?|- You're our Tambourine Man.
{132832}{132949}- Oh, I'm your drug dealer?|- You got the stuff, Miss J?
{132952}{133049}You're our teacher. You got|what we need. lt's the same thing.
{133052}{133144}Come on, Miss J. All the poems|you taught us say you can't give in.
{133148}{133202}You can't give up.
{133205}{133274}- Well, we ain't giving you up.|- No way.
{133277}{133383}Now, listen, baby, we gonna have to|tie you down to the chair and gag you...
{133386}{133506}'cause you know|we want you to stay.

{133625}{133733}Okay, on the left and on the right,|a "Louanne, Louanne." Uh, here we go.
{133736}{133817}Louanne, Louanne,|Louanne, Louanne.
