00:00Hi, welcome back to my channel, in this video, I will explain the ending of Lesson Plan,
00:04so let's begin.
00:07Lesson Plan is a 2022 drama action film directed by Daniel Markowicz, spoilers for the film's
00:12ending follow.
00:13The film begins with Damien working deep undercover.
00:17He is brought before the boss of the operation, who asks him why he seems twitchy.
00:22Damien really doesn't, but this is definitely a way to make him uncomfortable.
00:26The boss then reveals that he knows that Damien is a police officer.
00:30As the boss goons attack Damien, he takes care of them fairly quickly, demonstrating
00:34that he is a skilled martial artist.
00:36However, just as he goes to arrest the boss, the latter reveals that he has found out about
00:41his wife and has already sent people to take care of her.
00:44Horrified, Damien rushes back home and finds his wife's body.
00:49In the subsequent months, Damien descends into deep despair, finding solace in Lecour.
00:54Meanwhile, his best friend, Simon, a history teacher at Jan Sobieski High School, discovers
00:59that one of his students died due to a fentanyl overdose and reaches out to Damien for help.
01:05Damien accepts his dinner invitation and visits Simon's home but declines to help him, urging
01:09him not to do anything and advising him to go to the proper authorities.
01:13Their conversation is overheard by Simon's son, Kamil.
01:17A few days later, Damien sees in the news that Simon has been accused of supplying drugs
01:22to his students.
01:24After the death of one of those students, he apparently committed suicide.
01:28As Damien reels from being overwhelmed with grief, he realizes that his inaction ultimately
01:32caused this.
01:34The death of his wife buried Damien in depression, but Simon's death has the opposite effect.
01:40He rushes to his late friend's home and speaks to his widow and son before contacting someone
01:44to create fake IDs for him, so he can infiltrate Jan Sobieski as a history teacher.
01:50When Damien shows up for an interview, he discovers that the school's reputation is
01:54so bad that he is the only applicant.
01:57Other teachers even advise him to find a job somewhere else.
02:01Principal Leszek Zamoyski at least seems welcoming and optimistic.
02:04He acknowledges that the school has problems but seems to hope that things will eventually
02:08get better.
02:09Leszek introduces Damien to Agata, the deputy principal and Polish language teacher.
02:15As Agata shows Damien around the school, she introduces him to other staff members, including
02:20Stefan, the chemistry teacher with a speech disorder.
02:23Damien also learns that the school has hired a security agency since the incident with
02:28Simon.
02:29This agency is headed by Kmielski, whom Damien also meets on his first day at school.
02:34Who is behind the drug operation?
02:37On his first day in the class as a teacher, Damien encounters a young man who goes by
02:41the name Frogface.
02:43He is clearly older than the students there, and Damien throws him out of the classroom
02:47with the help of the security and Agata.
02:50Later that evening, he discovers that someone has sliced his tires.
02:54After he accepts a ride from one of his colleagues, they head to the parking area, where he finds
02:58Frogface and two of his lackeys assaulting Agata.
03:02Damien intervenes and beats the three goons up.
03:05The following day, Damien arrives at the school to discover that the students and teachers
03:09alike have found out what has happened, and he suddenly has a lot of admirers, including
03:13Agata, who asks him out.
03:16They go for a drink before heading to Agata's home.
03:19There, something Agata says triggers Damien's memories of his wife, and the date ends abruptly.
03:24Meanwhile, Frogface faces judgment from his gang after nearly getting caught.
03:29Zero, one of the troubled teens, is the head of the group, and he is trying to recruit
03:33a new member, Mammoth.
03:35When Frogface begs for mercy, Zero tells him it is out of his hands.
03:40This is when Kmielski arrives on his motorcycle, and it becomes clear that he and his security
03:44team are very much part of the drug operation.
03:47Kmielski ultimately lets Frogface live, but Mammoth breaks one of his legs to show that
03:53he can follow orders.
03:55At school, Damien tries to speak to Camel, who lashes out at him, holding the older man
03:59responsible for his father's death.
04:02Damien accepts the responsibility and admits that he is at the school posing as a history
04:06teacher in order to get justice for Camel's father.
04:09They don't exactly reconcile at this point, but things do get better.
04:13Mr. Camel gets beaten up while trying to protect one of his classmates, Amelia.
04:18When Damien discovers what has happened, he decides that it's imperative for his students
04:22to know self-defense.
04:24As he begins teaching them, Damien also starts dismantling the rampant drug operation at
04:29the school, finding the stashes and informing the authorities.
04:33Kmielski sends his subordinates, but they get beaten up badly.
04:37This prompts Zero to threaten Amelia's father to force Amelia to claim that Damien has sexually
04:42molested her.
04:43This works, and Damien gets suspended.
04:46After finding out why Amelia lied, Damien continues investigating and discovers that
04:51Stefan makes the drugs at school.
04:53However, the real leader of the operation is neither Stefan nor Kmielski.
04:58In the film's final act, it is revealed that Leszek runs the entire operation.
05:02Leszek claims that he has become disillusioned with teaching.
05:06The students don't listen and prefer to do drugs, so he thought he would help them with
05:10that.
05:11Ironically, despite not being a trained educator, Damien succeeds where others, including Agata,
05:17failed.
05:18He manages to reach the students by teaching them martial art and discipline.
05:22In the climactic fight, Leszek takes Agata hostage, forcing Damien to fight through Zero,
05:27Kmielski, and their goons with the help of his students.
05:31Damien kicks Kmielski, causing his death by electrocution.
05:35He then confronts Leszek and rescues Agata from him.
05:39Leszek shoots at Damien but fails to hit any vital points.
05:42This is when Kamil drops a container full of garden gnomes on the principal, killing
05:47him.
05:48The film ends as Kamil reunites with his mother, and Damien reunites with Agata.
05:53Who Killed Simon?
05:55Simon's death serves as a catalyst in the lesson plan.
05:58It pushes the plot forward.
06:01Before his death, Simon had created a hand-drawn map that can lead people to the headquarters
06:05of Leszek.
06:07Agata finds the map while cleaning out Sizmon's locker, and she and Damien use it to find
06:11the drugs.
06:12This also leads to the revelation that Leszek is behind the drug operation in his own school.
06:18It is heavily implied that Leszek is the one who caused Simon's death and ordered his
06:21people to make it look like a suicide.
06:24He also kept Simon's watch as a souvenir.
06:27J.Ro uses it to threaten Amelia, letting her know what would happen to her father if she
06:31didn't comply and falsely accuse Damien of molestation.
06:35After Amelia admits the truth, J.Ro and his gang attack her, which sends her into a coma.
06:41During the climax, Kamil thrashes J.Ro and declares it's for Amelia.
06:46After Leszek's death, Damien takes Simon's watch from the dead man's wrist and gives
06:49it to Kamil, signifying that their pursuit of revenge is complete.
06:54That's all for now folks.
