Ain't|never had no fuckin' "A" before. I once knew a man|who couldn't read He said it ain't no thang|'cause I graduated twice With the game I possess Bulletproof vest|to the chest But when his kids needed help|to prepare for a test lt was stress 'cause Pops|didn't achieve any academics And true, indeed|This problem is an epidemic Who want to work five long hard days|through it and get taxed So that's a message|for your mind The story's been told|about a thousand times So here's a message|for your mind One thousand-one|One thousand-two So here's a message|for your mind Morning. - Okay, today we are going|to conjugate some verbs.|- What?|- What? Hey, what about karate? Well, I can't just teach you karate.|I'll show you another hold next week. Get outta here! Belt it out, too.|I wanna hear it. We eat green beans for dinner.|What you do with 'em? "We eat green beans for dinner." - Okay--|- Hey, Pam. Pam! Ye-- Yo, Chris! Hey. Hey. Hey, what's up? Hey, man, it's not|a big deal, okay? ls that true? lf we wanna die?|Shit, no. We want you to die. - ls that true?|- Well, if it was between|you and us, hell yeah. - Okay.|- Hey! Hey! I don't care|if I live or die! - What about that?|- Suicide, man.|- What's all this bullshit with dying? - You want us dead?|- No, darlin', but I do|want you to keep your "A." So, no, I'm gonna make it|real easy on you, okay? All you have to do is tell me the verb|that makes this sentence true. We choose to do some karate. - Yeah, right.|- Okay, give me a verb|instead of "choose." - We're going to die?|- We must die, okay. - Okay, "we must die." ls "must"|a verb? Can you, uh--|- No, "must" ain't no verb. - Can you "must" something?|- Yeah. I must piss right now.|You'd better believe it. Okay, what verb that we used|today is the most powerful? - Die.|- Piss. Oh, you so stupid! - Choose.|- Choose. - What's your name?|- Callie. Callie, why? Because that's the difference between|owning your life and being afraid. Saying "l choose"|no matter what. You mean, like a guy's got|a gun to your head... and he's pulling the trigger|and you say, "l choose to die"? No, you ain't choosin' to die,|but you can choose to die|without screaming, right? I mean, you could always|choose somethin'. - Not where I live.|- Shit. Did you read that somewhere|in this class? No. ln our class we readin' this book|called My Darling, My Hamburger. - From this.|- My what? - My Darling, My Hamburger.|- Hamburger? Possessive pronoun, noun,|possessive pronoun. - Oh, watch it, girl.|- Let's see. E-Excuse me. - Excuse me, Miss Johnson.|- Uh-- Oh, yes. Would you stop by the principaI's office|before your next class, please? Mr Grandey would like|to speak to you. The principal! Oooh, White Bread in trouble! Yes. I'll talk to you later. Bye-bye. Miss Johnson, this is an office.|We knock before we enter. Oh, I'm sorry. Please. Now, Miss Johnson,|I'm taking into consideration|the fact that you're new... and therefore don't know that teaching|karate is against school policy... and can lead to a lawsuit|in case of an injury. But you can avoid this kind of error--|you simply follow the curriculum... dictated by|the Board of Education. Well, um, sir, that's|almost impossible, um-- Most of my students don't|even know what a verb is. lf you're going to teach them, I'm sure there's a better sentence|than "We choose to die." I'm sure there are, but I--|I-l needed a sentence that|would get their attention... - Mmm.|- and, well, it had to|be better than this. Miss Johnson, that is the approved|curriculum for second period. Your class. Now, I know the newer the teacher,|the smarter she is, but I-I'm afraid you're just|going to have to go along|with our policies, even if you don't|agree with them. - All right?|- Mm-hmm. What a fuckin' idiot. - Griffith.|- Don't let them get to you. I'm not. I-ln fact, I'm about to|challenge the entire curriculum. - lf I could just find the paper|in the Xerox room.|- You can't. There isn't any. - What do you mean?|- I mean there isn't any. I mean, we're out of Xerox paper and art|paper and we're short on pencils. But we do have plenty of students.|I guess that, uh, balances things out. Thanks. Another fuckin' idiot. No, I can't run, I can't hide|from all this pressure lf I sell out, that means|I'm coppin' to a lesser charge - And whenever there's a will|baby, there's a way|- Shit! Each one teach one I always say|the murder rate is risin' Society ain't scarin' me|Life is like a puzzle|Ain't no tellin' when they'll bury me - Problems, problems|How are we gonna solve 'em|- So, what's on today's lesson plan? A little kickboxing?|Some, uh, target practice, huh? No. My own little|secret weapon. Problems, problems|How are we gonna solve 'em Okay, so, "never" is-- - lt's a verb!|- Adverb! Adverb!|- Adverb! Adverb! Adverb! Fantastic! - Whoo!|- You guys'll be reading poetry soon. - You guys are sharp.|- Oh, my-- - Whoa!|- Okay. - Homeboy!|- King of the calle! Sit down, sit down, sit down. - Sit down.|- Honourable sensei. Hmm. lt's obvious that "homeboy"|is a noun. Noun is correct! Well, give me my damn candy bar. - Whoo!|- Thank you. Boy, poetry will be a piece|of cake for this crowd. Yo, how come you keep sayin' poetry?|What's poetry got to do with this shit? Poetry? WelI-- Because if you can read poetry,|you can read just about anything, hon. - When you're ready for poetry,|you're ready for bear.|- I say bring on the bear! - I'm always ready for bear. Shit.|- I'm always ready to see you bare. - Whoa!|- Oh, shut up, you stupid!|- Oh, yeah? Ohh! Ohh! Well, okay, here's the bear. So what the fuck is that? - I just happen to have copies|of-of-- of a poem...|- Wait for me! Shit! - That's okay.|- written by the greatest poet. My Darling, My Hamburger.|How's that? - Okay, here's the deal.|- She was joking about the bear. When we finish this assignment,|I am gonna take... all of you... to a place that has... the highest parachute jumps, the biggest roller coaster, the best rides, the most delicious hot dogs, the hardest games... and the best prizes|in the world. - You're kiddin'.|- For real? - And we don't gotta pay for it?|- Huh? - And we don't gotta pay for it?|- Not a penny. So then, who pays? The Board of Education. - Lord, did you hear that?|- I don't believe it. - Sound good?|- Hey! That's bullshit, man! I'm sorry? Since when has the Board of Education|done anything for us, huh? Yeah, man, we fuckin'|barely get lunch. Well, I'm sorry you feel|that way, Emilio. Good. - Uh, Durrell, you wanna read|the first four lines?|- Oh, man, you trippin', man. I ain't readin'. You trippin'. - Okay, how about the f--|- You've got to read it.|- How about the first line?

Yes, Callie? lf you wanna get the class|to listen, get Emilio. - Yep, yep|- lt's all right - lt's all right|- As you may have heard - Yeah|- To smoke a fat one - To smoke a fat one|- And drink a Thunderbird - Drink a Thunderbird|- lt's okay - lt's okay|- To play this loud - Mister DJ, don't mean|to sweat you down|- Wait - I'll get you, you little fucker.|- Yep - Poetry?|- Poetry, yeah. - These kids?|- Why not these kids? Well, hey, go for it. No, but I gotta find a gimmick|first, you know. Something|that'll grab their attention. - Who's your favourite poet, Griffith?|- My favourite? - Oh, there are so many.|How do I choose?|- I'm serious. Mmm. Serious. Okay. - Big D. Dylan.|- Get out! Why not? Well, I don-- He's n-- You know,|he's not for everybody. I mean, he's a little|long-winded, don't you think? I suppose that's 'cause|he wrote drunk. He had a drinking problem? Well, the guy's Welsh.|There ain't a lot to do there. I thought he was from Minnesota. You know, if the guy's your|favourite poet, you might want|to read up on him a little bit. He was Welsh and|he drank himself to death. Dead? He's not dead.|I saw him yesterday on MTV. You saw Dylan Thomas on MTV. No. Bob Dylan. Oh-- -Bob Dylan? Ohh!|-He looked dead. He looked dead. - Ohh!|- Hey, Mr Tambourine Man Play a song for me "Hey, Mr Tambourine Man--" - Tambourine!|- Tambourine!|- Tangerine. "T-Tambourine Man, Play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there is|no place I'm going to" Wow, he can read. Thank you. Taiwana? The next three lines, Taiwana. "Hey, Mr Tambourine Man Play a song for me ln the jingle-jangle morning|I'll come following you" - Good.|- All right. - Yes.|- What does that mean? What do you think it means? What, some guy's|got a tambourine... and this other guy wants him to|play it 'cause he can't sleep. - Okay.|- Yeah, but how come he want|to play the tambourine? Don't he got a radio or somethin'?|You know what I'm sayin'? Well, you kn-- That's a good point.|I mean, i-i-it's-- it's a weird choice. So, what if I told you|that Mr Tambourine Man... is a code name? - A code name for what?|- James Bond. - A drug dealer.|- ls it? Well, a lot of people think so. You know, this song is from the '60s,|when you couldn't sing about drugs, so they had to make up codes. So what was the code?|What does "Hey, Mr Tambourine Man|Play a song for me" mean? - Well, you figure--|- "Play a song for me"|means "give me the stuff." Yeah, it's like that nigger|been out drinkin' all night|and smokin' some shit... and everybody broke out on his|ass, you know what I'm sayin'? And he's high-- he's still high,|but he's kinda low and shaky.|You know-- "jingle-jangle." Yeah, and he needs something, like|a big hit of crack or cocaine and shit. He's crazy, okay? So, what do you think, Emilio?|Do you think that Raul is right? - All right, it's too|personal to discuss.|- What? You mean you choose not to|participate in the discussion? - Boy's too slick.|- Not about somethin' so personal. Wanna draw for it? What? High card, you don't have to|discuss anything. Why do I gotta draw for it?|That's the way it is now. Listen to this. Name one of the most influential|presidents of the 20th century. - Roosevelt.|- Simple, right? Wrong.|A history teacher's nightmare. How about Snoop Doggy Dogg|for an answer? Joe Montana. Winston Churchill. But this-- this is the best. "l will not answer this question on the|grounds that it is culturally biased... against individuals|such as myself." Actually, for this answer I'm|gonna give him partial credit. Louanne, you lose your|sense of humour, it's over. Uh, here.|New pictures of the rug rats. - Oh, God. People are supposed|to ask first, Griffith.|- Shut up. Ohh. They look like Maggie.|Thank God. Oh, I don't know. Harry with his thumb|in his mouth, he kinda looks like me. ls that his thumb?|I thought that was a cigarette. - How is Maggie?|- Good. She wants you to come over|for dinner. We had some fun times, you and Maggie|and me and-- what's his name? - I remember.|- Yeah. I remember too. That's why it's|hard for me to come to dinner. - Seeing anybody?|- No. How do you do that? You walk around|with a bag over your head? - No.|- Louanne, it's over six months. I'm not ready, Hal. You know, I thought you guys|always stuck together. What are|you sitting here with me for? You know, he was my best friend,|Louanne. "Was" is the operative word. He isn't worth your spit. What was that for? Just tell Maggie|she's a lucky lady, Griffith. Yeah, when they made me they|broke the mold. Both of them. - Good morning, ladies.|- Good morning. We gotta stop meeting like this. You sound awful. I refuse to take|medical advice... from somebody who eats Cheetos|at 8:00 in the morning. Yeah, well, you shouldn't smoke.|Listen to that cough! You know-- - I'll see you inside.|- You're gonna finish|the cigarette, aren't you? No, I'm not. Really.|Honest. I swear. Here! Right here!

Move! -You are stronger than these two|put together, and you know it!|-Bullshit, man! - iVato!|- He wishes, man! You could all be expelled if I report|this to the office, and you know that. Okay, if you give me your word that|it ends here, I'll forget it. ls it over? Yeah. How about you? - Yeah, simón.|- Absolutely. Okay, I trust you.|Now get to your classes. See you later, puto. Catch you later, ése. lf you hit those kids,|you'll pay for it. I swear. Get to your class|and behave yourself. You shouldn't have done that. - Oh? Why not?|- 'Cause you just shouldn't|mess with Emilio. Raul knows that if you make a deal|with Emilio and you fuck up on him, you get your locker smashed in|with your head. Everybody knows that. Well, maybe they'll all have|time to think about it... before they get to|the locker-smashing stage. They're gonna fight,|no matter what they tell you. What do you mean? When? Now? Where? Angela! Where? - Come on, motherfucker! Come on!|- Get him! Keep fightin'!|Keep kickin' his ass! Shit! Fuck! Ohh! Oh, shit. - Come on! Fuckin' come on!|- Fuck that! Shit!

Rata, you fuckin' puto. - Man, I cracked that|motherfucker's head, ése.|- See you in the fuckin|neighbourhood, ése. Okay, I see. And I made it worse and I made you and|Gusmaro look bad in front of everyone... by saying that Emilio was|stronger than the both of you. Yeah, well, you thought|you was helpin' us. Ma'am, I'm sorry. We really have to go.|I gotta get 'em home. Nasty cut. You mind telling me what the fight|was about in the first place? Yeah. I really would like to know|what happened.

Yeah, I like to hit people. Why? You feel angry|a lot of the time? So now you're gonna|try and psychologize me? You're gonna try and figure|me out? I'll help you. I come from a broken home,|and we're poor. Okay? I see the same fuckin' movies|you do, man. I would like to help you,|Emilio. Thank you very much. And how|would you like to do that? You gonna give me some good|advice? "Just say no"? You gonna get me off|the streets? Well, forget it! How the fuck you gonna|save me from my life, huh? Yep, yep Karen? I have three, uh,|student files here... - and I can't find a phone|number in any of 'em.|- Yep, yep Well, sometimes they don't|give a number... - and sometimes|they don't have a phone.|- Yep, yep - lt's all right|- lt's all right|- As you might have heard - Yeah|- To smoke a fat one|- To smoke a fat one - And drink a 'Bird|- A Thunderbird - lt's okay|- lt's okay - To play this loud|- Oh, play it loud Mister DJ, don't mean|to sweat you down - lt's all right|- lt's all right - As you may have heard|- Yeah - To smoke a fat one|- Smoke a fat one - And drink a 'Bird|- A Thunderbird, now lt's okay Come on. Come on. Do your homework. - You have a lovely family,|Mrs. Sanchero.|- Thank you. We know why you're here,|Miss Johnson. I warned Raul to|stay out of trouble. He's first in our family to|maybe graduate high school. - So he gonna get punished big|for what he done.|- N-- Don't you worry about that. But he didn't do anything wrong. -But he expelled for three days.|-l know. No, I know. But he didn't start the fight. He was|defending himself from a bigger boy. He was protecting himself. - Uh, why they send him home?|- lt's just school policy. I-I-lt gives the other boy|time to cool down. Actually, I'm here because I just wanted|to tell you both personally... what a pleasure it's been having|Raul in my class this semester. You must be very proud. Yes. He's, um--|Well, he's very bright... and funny, articulate. The truth is, he's--|he's one of my favourites. Uh, soy Louanne Johnson. Oh. "l will not go down underground 'Cause somebody tells me|that death's comin' 'round" Okay, this is another|Dylan poem. Now, is that a code, or does|that just mean what it says? "And I will not carry myself|down to die When I go to my grave|My head will be high" "My head will be high."|What does that mean? Anybody. Nobody. ls there something|I should know? Yeah. I'll tell you. You ratted on Raul,|Gusmaro and Emilio. Yeah. You got Emilio|put into detention. lt wasn't none of your|business, chismosa. And you got Raul|and Gusmaro suspended. - Now they're gonna get|their fuckin' asses kicked.|- And you got Emilio-- - Hey, I didn't rat on anybody.|- Wasn't none of your business|anyway, you chismosa. - Bullshit.|- Let this--|- Told you she was full of shit. - Snitches get stitches, bitch.|- Do you wanna talk about this? On you, shit. Whatever|floats your boat, teach. We don't have no choices|in this room. Well, if you all feel that strongly|about it, leave the room. - What?|- Hey, listen. Nobody's forcing you to be here.|You have a choice.|You can stay, or you can leave. Lady, why are you playin' this|game? We don't have a choice. You don't have a choice? You don't have|a choice on whether or not you're here? No. lf we leave, we don't|get to graduate. lf we stay,|we gotta put up with you. Well, that's a choice, isn't it?|You have a choice. You either don't graduate|or you have to put up with me. lt may not be a choice you like,|but it is a choice. Man, you don't understand nothin'. l|mean, you don't come from where we live. - You-- You're not bussed here.|- Do you have a choice|to get on that bus? Man, you come and live in my|neighbourhood for one week... and then you tell me|if you got a choice. There are a lot of people who|live in your neighbourhood who|choose not to get on that bus. What do they choose to do?|They choose to go out and sell drugs. They choose to go out and kill people.|They choose to do a lot of other things. But they choose not to|get on that bus. The people who choose to get on|that bus, which are you,|are the people who are saying, "l will not carry myself|down to die When I go to my grave|My head will be high" That is a choice. There are no victims|in this classroom! Why do you care anyway?|You just here for the money. Because I make a choice to care.|And, honey, the money ain't that good. - Whatever.|- Read it again, Miss Johnson. - What?|- Read those lines you just read again. "l will not go down underground 'Cause somebody tells me|that death's comin' 'round" Does that mean|just what it says? No, it don't mean|just what it says. Because... you wouldn't go|under the ground... if someone told you|death was comin'. But you would go into the ground|if you were already dead. Do the rest of you|agree with that? Well, I kinda agree with it, but I think|it just means that... he ain't gonna help death out,|you know? lt's not like he's just gonna|lay down and wait for it. I think he's gonna choose-- No,|I think he's gonna make the choice-- to die hard. Mm-hmm. - Yeah, I agree with that.|- Yeah, me too. - That's what it sounds like to me.|- Okay. Well, what about, uh,|the rest of it? Um-- "When I go to my grave|My head will be high" "Head will be high."|What does that mean? - You're gonna die with pride.|- Right. - See you tomorrow.|- Callie, wait up! You went to RauI's house last|night, and Gusmaro's too, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah, that's what they told me. That's cool. Hold up, wait a minute|Don't go there 'cause I ain't with it Hold up, wait a minute|Don't go there 'cause I ain't with it What you want|Baby, I got it What you need|Babe, you got it All I'm askin'|is for a little respect Yo, kick it, homes!|What you waitin' for, man? - Are you trying to steal my $2.50, ése?|- Ah, go, go, go. Man, that ain't shit.|Go faster, man. Go faster, man. - Come on, come on|- Faster, man, faster!|- You got to gimme, gimme - R-E-S-P-E-C-T|- I got to get it, get it - R-E-S-P-E-C-T|- You got to gimme, gimme - R-E-S-P-E-C-T|- I got to get it, get it - R-E-S-P-E-C-T|- Come on, get back. Are you all right, man? That looked|like a real bitch right then. Hey, get the fuck|out of there, man. Look at you!|You look like my grandma, man. - R-E-S-P-E-C-T|- Miss Johnson, the-- the School Board would have every|right to insist on your dismissal. You informed no one.|You got no permission slips. Oh, but there was no one to inform.|All the kids just decided to go to|the amusement park at the last minute. And then they let me come along. - Did they pay for you?|- No, I paid for them. I was just so moved|by the invitation. This wasn't, by any chance, their reward for reading|poetry, was it, Miss Johnson? ln my class, Mr Grandey,|poetry is its own reward. Angela, would you read|the first line? "Appetizers. Freshly cut bay shrimp|grilled to perfection." - This is a Xerox of a menu.|- That is correct. lt's from The Flowering Peach,|the best restaurant in town. - Ever hear of it?|- Yeah, we heard of it. lt's supposed to be like|some special restaurant or somethin'. Mm-hmm.|So, does it sound good? Because whoever wins the, uh,|the-- the Dylan-Dylan contest... - The what?|- goes there for dinner with me. Hey, what's the Dylan-Dylan|contest about? Well. There's Bob Dylan, who we've been reading. And then... there's Dylan Thomas, who also wrote poems. lf you can find the poem|written by Dylan Thomas... that is like a poem|written by Bob Dylan, you win the Dylan-Dylan contest. Hey, Mr Tambourine Man|Play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there|is no place I'm going to Hey, Mr Tambourine Man|Play a song for me ln the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you Yo, every fuckin' poem Dylan Thomas|wrote is about death, man. Now, how we supposed to know|which one to write? "The sniper laid him low,|and strewed his brains. One would not think|the greenness of this valley... could let a day be sick|with so much blood." Man, that's some Rambo-Schwarzenegger|bullshit you found. - That's how it's supposed to be, right?|- No. - There's supposed to be killing shit.|- But it-- But it don't-- But it don't even mean the same as|"l will not go under the ground." Now you're some sort of|poetic critic, now, right? - Oh, well, it don't.|- Thank you. Okay. Listen to this. "Do not go gentle|into that good night. Old age should burn|and rave at close of day. Rage, rage against|the dying of the light." Where's the code?|Where's the death? Night. All that stuff|about night. That's death. So it's "Don't go gentle|into that good death." Yeah, but I think "good"|is sarcastic. When he say, "Do not go gentle,"|that's like sayin', "Don't go easy." - So it's the same as|"l will not go down."|- We just won us|a motherfucking chicken. Shh. This is the life Everyone has to be somewhere Oh I am here This is the life This is the life - This is my|- Well, the results of the|Dylan-Dylan contest are in. - Life|- The winners are-- - That's me. Right here.|- Sit down. I am Bob Dylan. Sit down. - Yo, shh! Shh!|- Sorry, Miss Johnson. - Shh.|- Shh. Raul, Durrell and Callie! - Congratulations.|- Thanks. - Here's your certificate.|- Hey!|- Congratulations. Congratulations, Callie. Okay! But there are no losers in this class.|You guys did great. You all get to pick a prize|from the box. How come they get a prize|when they got the wrong answer? Well, because sometimes|it takes a lot of wrong answers|to get to the right one. Hey, everyone can't be right,|'cept for us! Come on up. - Miss Johnson?|- Hey, Callie. - Um, I wanted to talk to you|about the restaurant.|- Uh-huh. - I can't go.|- Why? Because I have to work at this|supermarket every night until|June and I already told them-- Oh, isn't there any way|to get out of it? No. Because of the schedule|and everything, I have to do it. - But thank you anyway.|- Well, o-okay. Well. Shoot. Well, no, it's okay. lf you|can't come to dinner, then, uh,|well, we'll bring dinner to you. - Really?|- Mm-hmm. - Thank you.|- I'm taking orders, Miss Roberts. I couldn't find|a parking space. lt's okay.|I just got here myself. - Oh, you look very handsome.|- How 'bout this jacket? lt's fantastic. Go ahead, touch it.|lt's real leather. - Ooh!|- Hey, where's Callie? Oh, she had to work.|Where's Durrell? - Oh, he had to work too.|- Oh. Well, I guess it's just|you and me, handsome. I guess so. Oh. Ladies first. Thank you. - Hey, are you sure they got chicken?|- Mm-hmm. May I tell you a little|about this evening's specials? The chef is featuring foie gras|with smoked duck and figs|on a hill of bulgar. Uh, salmon tartar|in potato gaufrette... over wild mushrooms,|and fennel salad. Uh, for the entree|we're featuring... a complex shellfish|pan roast with orso, a touch of comfit and a broth|thickened with lobster shell oil. All very, very good. - Could we have a few minutes, please?|- Ah, yes. Thank you. - Are you sure they got chicken?|- Yes. Here. See, it's right there,|sweetie. You see? Poulet. And when the waiter comes back,|you may as well talk to him. lt'll be good practice|for your summer job interviews. I can't talk to that guy. He probably|thinks I'm weird or something. He does not. He can't help|but notice your natural charm. You just look him straight|in the eye and you talk to him|like you would anyone else. Now, go ahead and call him over. Go ahead. Just give him|a little nod. - Are we ready?|- Okay, I'll have the chicken. A whole one. And I'll have the same. And one to go, please. One to go. Thank you. Hey, Miss J? I was wondering maybe, like,|in the next couple of days, if I-- - ls everything all right?|- Everything's fine. Thank you. All right. Now don't be mad or nothing,|but I gotta be absent... for a couple of days|without your coming to my house. lt's important. - You'll have to tell me why.|- I got some shit to do. I gotta make some money|to pay back this guy. This doesn't sound important|enough to cut school. lt is. I gotta pay|for this jacket. See, I got it off the street|from this guy for 200 dollars, and he said he'd trust me|for it until Friday. Why did you buy it on the street|instead of in a store? Are you crazy? You know how much|this would cost in a store? I needed a nice jacket and fast,|and I got it from this guy|'cause he cut me a deal... 'cause he stole it,|probably. So, are you gonna go out and get|a job or are you gonna go out|and steal too to pay him back? Miss J, I gotta pay him back. He'll kill me. I didn't have nothing to wear! Fine. I'll lend it to you. I can't take your money.|Teachers are poor. Everyone knows that. Well, you don't really|have a choice, do you? lf you don't pay the guy back,|he'll kill you. lf you cut school, I'll tell|your father and he'll kill you. - So I'm your only way out.|- Oh, man. - But I do have one condition.|- Big? - Huge.|- What do you want, interest? - Mm-mmm. Bigger.|- Jesus Christ, what is it? Well. - Would you like dessert?|- No! - Another glass of wine?|- Oh, no, I'm fine. Thank you. - Coffee, perhaps?|- Hey, man, we're talking! So, what's the condition? You have to pay me back|on the day you graduate. But-- But what if|I don't graduate? Well, then you'll never|pay me back the money. But I know that|if you say you will, you'll kill yourself|keeping your word. Well, what do you say? I don't get it. Why do you|care so much if I graduate? Weird, isn't it? All right, I'll pay you back. - You have my word.|- Hey. lt is a very nice jacket. Thank you. - Hey.|- Oh, hi!|- Hi. - How you doin'?|- Oh, good. I think this is the first time I ever|brought food into a supermarket. -Yeah, I can smell it from here.|-Yeah.|-Good. Thanks. Well, Raul says if you don't like it,|he'll take it off your hands. Oh, please.|Like hell he will. Callie, could you help load|in aisle three, please? Be right there. I'm telling you,|this place would fall to pieces|if it wasn't for me. You know, Callie, just between you and me, with your scores, I think you should|consider going into Advanced English. - Oh, but I'm gonna be at Clearview.|You didn't know?|- No. You didn't see my record?|I tell you. No, I-- I didn't know. - Bye now.|- Yeah. ln the middle of a semester?|Are-- Are you moving? No. I'm pregnant. And since I'm startin' to show,|they thought it was time, you know? - Who thought it was time?|- The school. They don't let you|stay there if you're pregnant. But they told me they have this|really good programme at Clearview|for, like, teenage mothers. And they teach you stuff like parenting|and nutrition, all kinds of stuff. So I thought it would|be good for me, you know? - Yeah.|- Aisle three. "Degrade first the arts|if you'd mankind degrade." Hey, that's the spray can poem. -Hey, hey, what's the code word?|-The code word is "great rides|and great prizes." I'm keeping it undercover|But comin' soon, I surmises Does anybody know where, um,|Durrell and Lionel are today? - Durrell and Lionel.|- No.|- They around. Yeah, so what's the prize we're|gonna get for learning this poem? Learning is the prize. Yeah. Knowing how to read something|and understand it is the prize. Okay? Knowing how to think|is the prize. - I know how to think right now.|- Okay. Well, yeah, well,|you know how to run too. But not the way you|could run if you trained. You know, the mind|is like a muscle. Okay? And if you want it to be really|powerful, you got to work it out. Okay? Each new fact|gives you another choice. Each new idea builds|another muscle, okay? And it's those muscles that are|gonna make you really strong. Those are your weapons,|and in this unsafe world... I want to arm you. - And that's what these poems|are supposed to do?|- Yeah. Hey, try it. You're just|sittin' here anyway. Look. Okay.|lf at the end of the term, you're not faster, stronger|and smarter, you will have lost nothing. But if you are, you'll be that much tougher|to knock down. So what's "Hire idiots to paint|with cold light and hot shade"? They're being sarcastic, Raul. I mean, 'cause you know that light|is supposed to be warm, right? - And shade is supposed to be what?|- Cold? Exactly. But if you go|and hire an idiot to do the job,|he's gonna do it backwards. - Hello.|- There you go.|- Hmm. Don't make a big fuss|about this, Louanne. You have to help me. You have|no idea how bright this girl is. Yes, I do. And there's nothing|I can do about it. Oh! That just makes me crazy! What right do these miserable,|self-righteous sons of bitches|from the Board of Education... have to make a moral judgment|on Callie Roberts? - Do you know--|- Louanne, there are parents|in the next room. Look, I don't c--|I'm gonna fight this ruling. I'm gonna write an open letter|to every newspaper condemning|the entire School Board. - Oh, you can't do that.|- Why not? Well, first of all, the Board|has nothing to do with it. We prefer that these girls go to|the mother-to-be programme at Clearview. Oh, wait a minute. You mean this isn't a rule?|You mean this is your preference? Well, yes. You mean Callie Roberts is free|to go to any school she wants? - lncluding this one?|- Unless she's absent|for more than 30 days. And then she has to wait|until the baby's born|before she can come back here. But, Louanne, once these girls|have babies, very few of them|come back to school anyway. I see. So you make them think|they have to leave. You just push 'em out a little earlier,|make it a little harder, make it a little more hopeless. I do what I have to do... because it is dangerous to have|a pregnant girl in a classroom. lt's not a warning, Louanne. I-lt's|prestige, it's stardom, it's attention. You know, not all these girls|become pregnant by accident. - Pregnancy is contagious.|- Yep, yep - lt's all right|- lt's all right As you may have heard - Yeah|- To smoke a fat one|- To smoke a fat one - And drink a 'Bird|- Drink a Thunderbird - lt's okay|- lt's okay - To play this loud|- Play it loud Mister DJ, don't mean|to sweat you down Who is it? lt's Louanne Johnson,|Callie's second period teacher. Hi. Um, Callie's getting ready|to go to work. - Come on in.|- Thank you. Curiosity killed the cat - Oh.|- Hi.|- Hi, there. - What you doing?|- Watching TV. - What's your name?|- Tyeisha. - Oh, that's a pretty name.|- She just love her TV. Why ain't you in bed?|Come here, baby. Callie? Honey?|Your teacher's here. - Hi.|- Hi. I'm sorry to just bust in|on you like this, but I have|the most wonderful news... and I wanted to come|tell you personally. You do not have to go|to Clearview. There is nothing in the rules that says|you can't stay exactly where you are. But, uh, she already|enrolled in Clearview. Uh, well, that's all right. She-- that--|But she doesn't have to go there. Yeah, but Kimboley wants me|to take the mother-to-be programme|at Clearview, you know. He thought it would be a good|idea if I learned how to take|care of the baby and stuff. I don't understand. Do you not want to stay|at Parkmont? Well, yeah, but I gotta learn how|to take care of us, you know. I mean, we're getting our own|place and everything, so-- Callie, just don't throw away|all you can become. Kimboley was so right.|He was so right. He told me that you'd probably|try to talk me out of this. You want to know|what else he said? He said that you probably|don't even like men... and that you're probably not married|and you don't want anybody else to be. That's why you're always|in everybody else's life. Look, I'm not saying|that I agree with him, okay? Well, Kimboley's wrong. I was married... and I was pregnant. So what happened? We got divorced... and I had an abortion. He beat me. Well, sometimes|you start out wrong... and just keep going. Hey, don't touch me.|Oh, get outta here! I'll see you. You took something that|fuckin' belonged to me, ése. Man, she came to me|with open arms. Besides, you gotta have|one of these. You're dead. As I walk through the valley|of the shadow of death I take a look at my life|and realize there's nothing left 'Cause I've been blastin'|and laughin' so long That even my mama thinks|that my mind is gone I really hate to trip|but I gotta loc As they croak I see myself|in the pistol smoke Fool, I'm the kind of "G"|the little homies wanna be like On my knees in the night|sayin' prayers in the street light Been spendin' most their lives|livin' in a gangsta's paradise - Hey, Miss Johnson.|- Hey!|- Been spendin' most their lives - Haven't seen you guys in a week.|- Livin' in a gangsta's paradise Thought maybe you got lost|on your way to class. I wanted to help you|find your way back. Get on inside. Clean up that pigsty of a room. Hi. I'm Louanne Johnson.|I'm the boys' teacher. I know who you are. You're that white-bread bitch|messin' with my babies' minds. I beg your pardon? My boys don't go to your school|no more, and that's gonna be it. - You took 'em out of school?|- You're damn right I did. I saw what they were bringing|home-- poetry and shit. A waste of time. They got|more important things to worry about. Don't you think that finishing high|school will be valuable to their future? That's not in their future. I ain't raising no doctors and lawyers|here. They got bills to pay. Why don't you just|get on outta here. Go find yourself some other|poor boys to save. Mama! I could stand|some lemonade. "lt is easier|to forgive an enemy... than to forgive a friend. The man who permits you|to injure him... deserves your vengeance. He also will receive it." Wow, who wrote that?|Some Mafia guy? You know, let's go on|with this poem tomorrow. Why don't you-- Take out your work|sheets and do the vocabulary drill. - Say what?|- Oh, man!|- Man, I don't wanna do no vocabulary. I don't wanna do|no damn vocabulary. Then don't. What do you mean?|You mean I have a choice? You're not gonna let me get away with|not learnin' my vocabulary, right? That's right. You have to do|your vocabulary. Words are thoughts|and we can't think without 'em. So-- Please? And so let's just do it, man. She's|gonna be down our back in a minute. - Whatever. She's grouchy.|- Grouch. - Thanks, Louanne.|- Grouch, grouch. Thank you, Louanne.|Such a nice lady, Louanne. What do I do?|What the fuck you want from me? Who, my teacher? You think|I'm gonna fuckin' talk to a teacher? Like they're gonna|really help me, huh? Huh? Teachers aren't gonna|fuckin' help me, okay? Miss Johnson! Miss Johnson,|we gotta talk to you. - There's nothing to talk about, Angela!|- What, are you Superman? ls your ass bulletproof?|ls that what you think? Tell her! - Tell her what you're gonna do.|- What is it? - He's strapped.|- Shut the fuck up!|She don't need to know my business. ls your business dying? No! There's this crackhead named Shorty.|He just came out of jail. He says that I'm his girl and|that Emilio took me from him. And now he wants to kill Emilio. Emilio, if this boy is threatening you,|we can go to the police. Look, this is nothing you|can do anything about. This guy is looking for me to kill me,|and the only way for me to stop him... is for me to kill him first. That's just the way it is,|all right? Wait, Emilio, wait, wait, wait, wait,|no! Can we-- Can we talk about this? - Come to my house.|- Yeah, right. Oh, what?|You're too proud to hide? lt's better to wander|the streets all night? - Come on.|- Please? Please, just go. Go. Go. - Can we drop you?|- Just go. ls this boy your age? - Yeah.|- Does he go to Parkmont? I won't tell you who it is. No, don't. But if you tell Mr Grandey|about him-- not about his threatening you,|but about his being on crack-- he'll be turned over to the juvenile|court for-- for drug abuse in school. H-He won't serve hard time, but by the time he gets out and|he's detoxed, he-- he will have|gotten over trying to kill you. No, I can't rat on him. Right. Kill him.|That's better. Man, you don't understand. You asked me once how I was|gonna save you from your life. This is how. This moment. Right now. This will make the difference|in your life forever. Emilio? Emilio? - Oh, Mr Grandey.|- ls there a problem, Miss Johnson? - Shouldn't you be in class?|- Yes, I'm late. Um, I just wanted to ask.|Did Emilio Ramirez come|to your office this morning? - Yes.|- Oh, God. Oh, thank God. - Did you talk to him?|- No, I sent him away. You-- What do you mean? - I mean I sent him away.|- Why? Because he didn't knock,|Miss Johnson. - Here we are.|- Because he didn't knock? Yes, Miss Johnson. I'm trying to teach|these children how to live in the world. And in the world, you just don't|burst into someone's office. Because he didn't knock? Damn it! Uh, Louanne. Mr Grandey is with the police. - Yes?|- Um. They just found Emilio Ramirez|three blocks from the school. He was shot this morning. ls he dead? - He's dead.|- I'm very sorry. Um... are you going to tell them now? Do you think that's wise? Yeah. Well, uh, perhaps if you talk to them|a little bit about death... and-- and-- and what it means. What would you like me to say? That if you don't want to die,|remember to knock? - That's not fair.|- What is? Bad news. Emilio was shot this morning. ls he dead? - Yes, baby, he's dead.|- Oh, no. Yo! Listen up. Miss Johnson|got something to say! - Shh.|- Thank you. I just want to say... l, uh-- I won't, um-- I will not be here next year. I'm not coming back. How come?|ls it something we did? No. No, no, no. No. Um-- I-l never intended to stay. Um, this was an unexpected job. So if you knew you wasn't|gonna stay, how come you made me|promise what I promised? I-- At that time,|I thought I would stay. So how come you're leaving? I just... have my reasons,|certain reasons. ls it because it's too sad for you,|what happened to Emilio? Maybe. And Durrell and Lionel|and Callie. And I just-- I just think that-- So if you love us so much and you're|so interested in our graduating, - how come you choose to leave?|- Yeah. You sad about Durrell and Callie|and Emilio and Lionel, but we're here. What about us, huh?|None of us make you feel happy? We been working hard and we stayed|in school, man. What about us? - Yeah.|- Yeah. Why are you packing up today|when tomorrow is your last day? Oh, just gettin' a head start. Oh, I see. What you did, when you|gave me the 200 dollars? That was the nicest thing|anybody ever did for me. I don't know anybody else|who would give 200 dollars... to a Mexican kid|on his word of honour. S-So you gotta let me|pay you back. Even if I don't graduate,|all right? Why wouldn't you graduate? Ain't no other teacher|gonna give me no "A." Yes, they will, if you work for them|the way you worked for me. No, but it was different with you.|You gave me an "A" to start with. - I didn't have to earn it.|I just had to keep it.|- Are you kidding? Keeping an "A" is harder than getting an|"A." Almost anyone can get an "A" once. But keeping it,|that's an accomplishment. - You think so?|- Oh, I know so. Do you realize the work|you did this term? Do you realize that|the poetry that we read... is given to people in college? - ln college.|- These same poems? - Yes.|- But they weren't even so hard. So, you see? Keep working. You'll graduate.
