02:24Well, it's always nice to have some fresh blood here.
02:27Let's turn our textbooks to page 207.
02:34History is always in the making.
02:36What will your history be?
02:40Uh, nothing, what's up?

03:08Later.
03:09Okay.
03:10Well, welcome.
03:11I'm really looking forward to hearing what you've been doing in drama.
03:15Um, so what play have you been working on this semester?
03:21Anyone?
03:25Oh.
03:27Honey, can you hand me a tomato?
03:32So?
03:33How'd it go today?
03:34It was just school.
03:35Come on.
03:36Tell me about one class.
03:38Okay.
03:39Um.
03:40History was good.
03:41Really?
03:42Teacher seems kind of eccentric.
03:43Yeah, he was.
03:44Okay, look.
03:45It's not perfect.
03:46But we're lucky.
03:47You know, it's hard to find a position in the middle of the school year.
03:49So does that mean we're lucky?
03:50We're lucky.
03:51You know, it's hard to find a position in the middle of the school year.
03:52So does that mean we're lucky that the previous drama teacher died?
04:09Lemonade from lemons.
04:39So is like somehow you find me.
04:40So now.
04:41You will play.
04:42Never again.
04:43Just interrupt.
04:44And also to get in touch with us.

04:51We, v

05:02Are you kidding, Governor?
05:03It's a question.
05:04Where did you wake up?
05:05No, come on, man.
05:06What's your problem?
05:07I can't believe you stand me in the back like.
05:08I trusted you.
05:09I can't believe you went and did that.
05:28Hey, watch this.
05:31Hey! Pick it up!
05:39Come on!
06:09Gotta give him credit. You know how to make it fun?
06:14The next leader of that's, um...
06:18Gang?
06:19Yeah. You know, you got Burnside right next to him who's 95% mass, 5% brain.
06:25Then you got Carrie, the queen bee. You got a whole hive following her all the time, you know?
06:35Anyone ever heard of chivalry?
06:37Um, like when you open the door for a girl?
06:40How would he know? It's not like any girl's gonna get that close to him anyways.
06:44Protectors of the weak and defenseless and warriors against monsters who threaten this land.
06:52Lame!
06:54You know, that's what all the wannabe knights said.
06:56They were too busy being monsters instead of protectors.
07:00Maybe.
07:11Way to stay under the radar, Ashley.
07:13See, I tracked down this virus from my aunt's computer.
07:16Now, it's meant to intrude and collect information, you know, send it back to the sender.
07:20See, I found out where the source is coming from.
07:22Check that out.
07:23Oh, that's pretty cool.
07:24Yeah.
07:26Ooh, watch it!
07:27Nick!
07:31Ooh, watch it!
07:33Nick!
07:34Careful with my laptop!
07:35Yeah, it would've fried it, right?
07:37Would you cut it out?
07:38Oh, look, Max.
07:39It's your knight in shining armor.
07:42I'm sorry, in what world is this actually cool?
07:44Didn't you push enough kids around on the playground ten years ago?
07:48Yeah.
07:49Well, later, losers.
07:53This is incomplete.
07:55Well, I don't get it.
07:57Well, maybe if you spent less time goofing off with your friends
07:59and more time actually paying attention, you'd understand.
08:02Now I want you to take it home and I want you to try again.
08:05Go on.
08:08Hey, that's mine.
08:20Hey.
08:23Here's where you're getting it wrong.
08:26That should be why.
08:27You're making the same mistake on every problem.
08:29Have you met a girl named Angie yet?
08:38Uh, no, I don't think so.
08:42Well, somebody dropped out of the play.
08:44I was thinking about using her as a replacement.
08:46Yeah? For what role?
08:48Olivia.
08:50We're doing Twelfth Night.
08:51You'd be such a great Olivia.
08:56But it's not even the starring role.
08:58Mom, I don't have time in my class schedule for drama, okay?
09:00I would like to introduce our new drama teacher, Ms. Johnson.
09:10She's going to help demonstrate these traditional dances, which we will then all learn.
09:15So, with dancing, there was real communication.
09:22Dancing allowed for intimate closeness and private conversation.
09:33Okay, everyone, come on up here.
09:42Now we're all going to try it.
09:47You know, Mr. Carlisle, I can't really risk injuring myself in the off season, so...
09:51If you injure yourself doing this, then I'd highly reconsider calling yourself an athlete.
09:56All right, come on guys, let's pair up.
09:58Nick and Ashley, Max and Wei, Brenna and Patrick.
10:03Come on up.
10:07All right, everyone ready?
10:09Grab your partners like this, and follow us.
10:15Now back in Civil War times, dancing was enjoyed by everyone.
10:21Hey, what makes you think that you know me?
10:25I don't.
10:27I know guys like you.
10:30What's that supposed to mean?
10:33Nothing.
10:34Can you just... just dance?
10:36No.
10:38I want to know.
10:40Okay, fine.
10:42I know you lame, self-centered guys who always have to be on top.
10:45You can't go two seconds without putting someone else down.
10:47And why?
10:48Because in some perverse way, it makes you feel better.
10:52Not all those things.
10:57Fine.
10:58Prove me wrong.
11:00I had a kid cut himself on one of the pages of the play.
11:03Are you serious?
11:04I bled a lot for a paper cut. I had to send him to a school nurse.
11:09What is this?
11:11What?
11:12It came here.
11:13Well, I changed her address with the post office.
11:15Yeah, but Mom, they could track us here.
11:17They can't.
11:18Are you sure?
11:19They won't track us here, okay?
11:20They got what they wanted.
11:24Sweetie.
11:25It's just junk.
11:26It's just junk.
11:36It's just junk.
11:38It's just junk.
11:40I don't know.
12:10I just saw you coming back here and I thought I'd see what you were doing.
12:34Just exploring.
12:35My old school didn't have anything like this.
12:38Why?
12:45Why what?
12:47Why are you being nice all of a sudden?
12:53Why does it matter to you now?
12:55It doesn't.
12:56Okay.
12:58Um...
13:00Everyone around here knows me.
13:04But you don't.
13:05So?
13:06Well...
13:07Well...
13:08It's like one minute you're getting all over my case and then the next you're helping me.
13:20Um...
13:21Am I supposed to apologize for that?
13:24No.
13:25I just...
13:26I just...
13:27I don't do it.
13:28Why?
13:29You did what you did.
13:30I helped you through math, okay?
13:32It's not that big of a deal.
13:33It is that big of a deal.
13:34It is that big of a deal.
13:36I mean, I wouldn't have helped.
13:39Oh, I know.
13:40Well, that's it for today.
13:45Uh, but I do have your next assignment.
13:48Now, here's what I want you to do.
13:51I want you to pick a place that has history.
13:54Any place at all.
13:55City hall, a museum, a monument.
13:58Go there and write about it and what it means to you.
14:02Um, how long does the paper have to be?
14:05Just two or three pages.
14:07You can make it longer.
14:09Yeah, right.
14:11Do next week.
14:23Oh, sorry.
14:28You know Max, right?
14:31Why aren't you nicer to him?
14:33Me and Max grew up together.
14:34We're actually friends.
14:36Um, then he started getting into all this tech stuff,
14:39and, I don't know, that's not really how I roll,
14:41so...
14:42we drifted apart.
14:45I mean, it's like you said.
14:47People change.
14:49Yeah, but there's a difference between changing
14:51and changing and changing.
14:53I mean, it's like you said.
14:55People change.
14:56Yeah, but there's a difference between changing
14:57and changing for the better.
15:03Go ahead.
15:04Thanks.
15:13I could have swore my keys were in my purse.
15:17Found them.
15:21Buy the spaghetti sauce.
15:22Of course.
15:25Any special requests?
15:28Um...
15:29Chips and cereal?
15:31Of course.
15:32Okay.
15:33Thanks, Mom.

15:55Have you started?
15:58Um...
15:59No.
16:00Well, I...
16:01I had a...
16:02a place if you...
16:03wanted to go.
16:04Sounds good.
16:06Yeah, you should get out.
16:07You should get out a little bit.
16:10Um...
16:11I'll go get my shoes.
16:12My mom's grandpa flew one of these.
16:13Yeah?
16:14Mm-hmm.
16:15Uh...
16:16B-17.
16:17Flying Fortress.
16:19Did he ever see any action?
16:20Yeah.
16:21He was, uh...
16:22He was flying over Germany when he was fired on.
16:24No way?
16:25Yeah.
16:26What did he do?
16:27Well, it tore through the whole side.
16:28Trapping one of his crew in the tail.
16:29He had five of his men bail, just in case he couldn't land the plane safely.
16:34And the rest of the men used their own parachutes to hold the tail on.
16:37Well...
16:38Were they okay?
16:39Yeah.
16:40He, uh...
16:41He landed the plane safely.
16:42He was flying over there.
16:43No way?
16:44Yeah.
16:45What did he do?
16:46Well, it tore through the whole side.
16:47Trapping one of his crew in the tail.
16:48He had five of his men bail, just in case he couldn't land the plane safely.
16:53And the rest of the men used their own parachutes to hold the tail on.
16:58Well...
16:59Were they okay?
17:01Yeah.
17:02He, uh...
17:04He landed the plane safely.
17:07Well...
17:08While I was left of the plane.
17:10I gave him a medal for it.
17:13Wow.

29:57Oh, no, that little slut who is that?
30:22No way. Look who's here. Ashley. You know her?
30:41Heather, you tell them you? Uh, sure. Good luck. Thanks.
30:48Hey. We need to talk. Yeah, well, I'm a little wet, so...
30:54You need to see this.
30:57Hi, Ashley.
31:11What? What are you doing here?
31:15You didn't move far enough away. People still talk about you at home, you know. About what you did.
31:22I didn't do any of those things.
31:24Yeah, that doesn't really matter, does it?
31:28I can't believe you! How could you? You ruined my mind!
31:32Stop, okay? Look, you got what you wanted. Just leave me alone.
31:36But what's the fun in that? Why? Why me?
31:41Why not? You got in my way.
31:44You are so messed up.
31:47You're so horrible! You should be ashamed!
31:49Well, I'm not. Okay? And if you think that you can blackmail me here, you're wrong.
31:54I didn't think anyone would have a reason to blackmail you.
31:58Nick. This is a very different side of you.
32:04What?
32:06Darren gained 15 pounds over this weekend making out with donuts.
32:11Did you photoshop this?
32:16I caught Libby in the closet with a janitor. What a hoe.
32:21Lisa, if you don't get some gum, I'm gonna start Lysol in your mouth. It's funny.
32:27Yeah, it's a very interesting profile you have here, Ashley.
32:31Johnson.
32:33I didn't say any of those things.
32:35Oh, really? You're just gonna pretend like you had nothing to do with this?
32:39Do you know how many people you hurt back home?
32:41And now you're trying to do it over again here!
32:48Nick. Please listen.
32:50No, Ashley. I'm done listening to all your crap. Okay?
32:55You crap about the way I act.
32:57It makes me feel like I've done everything wrong.
32:59Yet here you are.
33:01Biggest hypocrite of all.
33:03Been so busy judging everyone else.
33:06You never really stop to look at yourself.
33:08Nick, you have no idea what you're talking about.
33:10You're such a fake! Get out of here!
33:12Yeah, no one wants to hear anyway.
33:14Let's go, Ashley.
33:15Ashley?
33:16Ashley?
33:17Ashley?
33:18Ashley?
33:19Ashley, what happened?
33:21What happened?
33:22I was a freakist, I was a freakist, okay, I was a freakist.
33:25You're a freakist.
33:26What happened?
33:27I didn't feel very sorry.
33:28You were a freakist.
33:30You were a kind of a freakist.
33:31Ashley?
33:32Ashley?
33:33Ashley?
33:34Ashley?
33:35Ashley?
33:36Ashley?
33:38Ashley?
33:39What happened?
33:40Ashley, what happened?
33:41Ashley, what happened?
34:11Hey, look there she is
34:41Hey Ashley, are you alright?
34:50Yeah
34:50I saw the video of what happened the other day
34:53I'm so sorry, I
34:55You're a hoe, you know that?
34:57Just leave me alone
34:58How could you be so mean to my cousin?
35:01I wasn't, and I'm willing to bet that you know that
35:03Yep, but that's just our secret
35:06Hey
35:07Next time you insult my family, you better be ready to face me
35:10Got it?
35:11Mel said it took her a couple months to run you out of town
35:15I'm betting I can do it in a matter of days
35:17I can do it in a matter of days
35:21Oh, my God.
35:47Nice locker.
35:52I wanted the pink one.
35:53I can't believe you crashed my locker.
35:55I don't know what you're talking about.
35:56Drop the act.
35:57It wasn't me.
35:58Okay, fine, then you had someone do it for you.
35:59Maybe, maybe not.
36:00You'll never know.
36:01Why are you doing this to me?
36:02Do I need a reason?
36:03Now get out of the way.
36:09You can't fly from me!
36:15Stop it!
36:16That is enough.
36:17I expect better behavior than this from the both of you.
36:21You were the last two girls I would expect to be fighting.
36:24She vandalized my locker.
36:25I would never do something like that.
36:27She probably did it herself.
36:28Have you seen what she did at our old school to get attention?
36:31Oh, stop it.
36:32Look at all the mean things she's saying.
36:33That's a lie.
36:34Miss Tanner, I've grown up here.
36:36You know me.
36:37Does this sound like me?
36:38Ashley, I know you're new here and your mother was sketchy on your history.
36:41But at my school, we don't stand idly by while one student hurts another.
36:45I didn't start this.
36:46Oh, please!
36:47You did it before!
36:48Ashley?
36:51What's going on here?
37:16Max, did you see where Ashley went?
37:22Yeah, she went that way.
37:24Thanks.
37:25Wait, what's going on?
37:30Ashley?
37:32I'm done.
37:33I can't do this anymore.
37:39I spoke to Miss Tanner.
37:40It's gonna be okay.
37:41Does she believe you?
37:44See?
37:49It's just happening all over again.
37:51Why?
37:52Why?
37:53Why is this happening to me?
37:56I don't know.
37:57But we're gonna fight this.
37:59Why, Mom?
38:00There's no point.
38:01Nobody believes me.
38:02It doesn't matter what I say.
38:05And you know, none of this would've happened if it weren't for you.
38:11Ashley, that's not fair.
38:12No!
38:13Mom, you're the one that was always saying what a good student I was and praising me.
38:17No wonder they came after me.
38:19You know, if it wasn't you, it was gonna be somebody else.
38:23You know how many times I wish that?
38:26I bet you do.
38:28That you're dating Mr. Carlisle.
38:30Are you trying to make this worse for me?
38:32We're not dating.
38:33It sure looks like you are.
38:36Look.
38:38Ashley.
38:40If you wanna blame me, fine.
38:42I'm...
38:43I'm okay with that.
38:45But better yet, blame the girls that are at fault here.
38:49Blame Alana and Mel and now Carrie.
38:51If it makes you feel any better, blame everybody who never believed the truth.
38:56I'm sure there's plenty of blame to go around.
39:02But whatever you do, do not give them the satisfaction of tearing us apart too.
39:08I'm sorry.
39:13I'm sorry.
39:14I'm sorry.
39:28You know, maybe we...
39:30We shouldn't have run before.
39:31We gave them exactly what they wanted.
39:34I'm so tired of it all.
39:37I know.
39:39I know.
39:41I don't know what to do.
39:42Well, whatever you do, whatever you decide, if you stay or go, fight or run, we're gonna do it together, okay?
39:59Okay.
40:01Okay.
40:03I love you, man.
40:05I love you too.
40:09It's okay.
40:12Thank you, Kylie.
40:21That was interesting.
40:26Hey, Nick.
40:28You wanna go see a movie later tonight?
40:31No.
40:33Nick.
40:34What?
40:35Have you seen Ashley?
40:36No.
40:37No, and I don't want to.
40:39I can't believe you think she'd do that.
40:41And you don't.
40:43I know her better than that.
40:45I don't buy it.
40:46Okay, well, you're the only one.
40:48Look, man, I saw it.
40:49I saw what she wrote online.
40:50Just because you heard something new about her, doesn't mean that it's true.
40:53Well, it doesn't mean that it's not.
40:55Does any of it even sound like the Ashley that you know?
40:57Hey, look, she was pretending.
40:58Why?
41:00I mean, obviously people hated her for the crap that I was written.
41:04It's a little her.
41:05Why wouldn't she take it down?
41:06Wait, I don't know.
41:08My guess is that it was a fake account.
41:09Look, whatever.
41:12Remember that rumor you started about me?
41:15I put Principal Tanner on the FBI's most wanted list?
41:18Yeah? So?
41:20What spread faster?
41:22That rumor or me trying to say I didn't do it?
41:27Just give her the benefit of the doubt.
41:49Can I help you?
42:01Um, yeah, is Ashley here?
42:04She wasn't feeling up to school today.
42:07Is she here?
42:09Did she answer?
42:11No.
42:12Then no.
42:15Hey, look, I just...
42:17I just want to talk to her.
42:19I...
42:47Yeah.
42:50Look.
42:54I was stupid.
42:56Okay, I heard some things about you and I just...
42:59I assumed they were true.
43:03But I don't know what happened to you before you moved here.
43:08Look, if I'm gonna hear it from anyone, I'd rather it be you.
43:11Well, you sure seem like you knew everything at the party.
43:15I was stupid.
43:20You can be mad at me.
43:22I mean, obviously you are, but...
43:25If it helps, throw it at me.
43:28Feel better?
43:29No.
43:31There's only one thing I can think of that'll help.
43:33Um...
43:34Telling everybody off?
43:36Do you really think that they'd care?
43:37Maybe.
43:38Maybe.
43:39I mean, I did.
43:40When you called me out on being...
43:42Well...
43:43Me.
43:44I just...
43:45I gotta leave this place behind.
43:47Thinking of moving?
43:48I want to.
43:49I...
43:50I...
43:51I don't know.
43:52Stay.
43:53Stay.
43:54Well, me.
44:00I just, I've got to leave this place behind.
44:07Thinking of moving?
44:10I want to.
44:14I don't know.
44:21Stay.
44:24Please.
44:31You have no idea what I'm going to face if I stay.
44:35I'll be right here with you.
44:37You said it yourself. You don't even know what happened.
44:40It doesn't matter.
44:44I know you.
44:45Mine went further.
45:02Mine went for, uh...
45:12Hey.
45:13Oh, hi.
45:14I didn't know you played.
45:16Oh, uh, I don't.
45:19I just figured my life's pretty much a country song anyway,
45:22so might as well learn.
45:26Well, I brought you missing homework assignments.
45:30Hey, thanks.
45:32Hey, you're welcome.
45:34Oh, and your, uh, your video presentation is due in history.
45:38Oh, my gosh, I haven't even started on that.
45:40Well, would you like some help?
45:44Hey, Max.
45:46Yes, Nick.
45:48So, I was wondering if you could help us with something.
45:50Yeah, yeah, we're over at Ashley's.
45:54Okay.
45:56It'll be better.
45:58Okay.
45:59I think this could work.
46:03Yeah, it's perfect.
46:05I guess you're missing.
46:07Oh!
46:09Ah!
46:10Max, this is great.
46:12All right, thanks.
46:14You sure you can pull this off?
46:16Oh, hacking into the school network is cake.
46:18Hey, you ready?
46:19I think so.
46:32Don't worry.
46:33You're gonna be great.
46:34Okay.
46:35Let's do this.
46:36All right.
46:37Continuing with our video presentations.
46:42History and your life.
46:43Ashley.
46:44Ashley.
46:45Ashley.
46:46Ashley.
46:47Ashley.
46:49Thank you, kid.
46:51Great.
46:52Great.
46:53Pretty cool across the street.
46:55And my name is Ashley.
46:56Didn't you think you saw me?
46:57What is your name?
46:58I think he's been in tears.
46:59Alright. Continuing with our video presentations, History and Your Life. Ashley.
47:19Hi, my name is Ashley Johnson, not Evans. I changed my name when I moved here, and I'll get to why later.
47:33But the event in history that I want to talk about happened in many parts of the world.
47:38It happened over 300 years ago, and resulted in deaths from anywhere from 50,000 to 100,000 people.
47:44In Colonial Massachusetts, this event started in a village called Salem.
47:49Where these girls started having fits, and these fits disturbed local authorities.
47:56What's wrong with these crazy girls?
47:58There's witches. No, three witches. They put a curse on us.
48:01Well, bring the witches here.
48:08So, you're a witch.
48:11No, I'm not.
48:12Too bad. That's the story we're going with.
48:15But it's not true.
48:16Well, we'll see.
48:17Drown her.
48:19If she floats to the top and is alive, she's a witch!
48:23Well, if she survives that, then how do we execute her?
48:27Well, hang on.
48:28But what if I die from drowning?
48:32Well, then.
48:34Well, I guess you're innocent.
48:36But...
48:37The girls' accusations led to a chain of hysteria.
48:45Over 200 people were accused of witchcraft.
48:47Twenty were hung.
48:49The colony eventually admitted that the witch trials were a mistake.
48:52But, you're probably wondering how this bit of history relates to my life.
49:00I used to think that the history didn't really matter.
49:04You know, that you could just forget the past, ignore it, and move on.
49:10But, where I lived before I came here, it wasn't enough that I was a good person.
49:16All it took were those that wanted to ruin my reputation.
49:19I was accused of terrible things.
49:24And I did none of them.
49:26All it took were two girls and false accusations.
49:29In a matter of days, I lost most of my friends.
49:35A couple of my closest ones held on for a few more weeks.
49:39But, people were believing the lie so much that they started attacking me.
49:46And other than my mom, I had no one to believe in me.
49:51So, we ran away.
49:55And it didn't help like I thought it would.
49:57And for those of you that have heard anything about me in the last few days,
50:01you already know that.
50:07And if history's taught me anything,
50:09it's that there are those people out there that love to watch others suffer.
50:14Loyalty fades under pressure.
50:16And there are very few knights out there that are willing to fight for you.
50:21But they are out there.
50:25But you know what?
50:27My past, it isn't the end of the world.
50:30Better things are in store.
50:31I just have to fight for them.
50:32I just have to fight for them.
50:33I just have to fight for them.
50:33I just have to fight for them.
50:34I just have to fight for them.
50:35I just have to fight for them.
50:36And if history's taught me anything,
50:37it's that there are those people out there that love to watch others suffer.
50:38Loyalty fades under pressure.
50:39And there are very few knights out there that are willing to fight for you.
50:40But they are out there.
50:42But you know what?
50:46My past, my past, it isn't the end of the world.
50:50Better things are in store.
50:53I just have to fight for them.
50:55So I'm standing up.
50:57I'm not going to sit here and wait for someone to come forward and admit that they made a
51:03mistake.
51:04Enough is enough.
51:05I'm not going to bow down to those that get a thrill from watching me suffer.
51:08In Salem, all it took to destroy someone that you didn't like was to call them a witch.
51:18Today you just make up some other lie.
51:23Essentially, I have been accused of being a witch.
51:27No matter what I say, the witch trials find me guilty.
51:32But I know what happened.
51:35So I guess it's up to you to decide whether you want to think and feel for yourself.
51:38Or wait till I drown.
51:43History is what you make of it, right?
51:47So I'm making sure that mine is the truth.
51:58Hi, my name is Ashley Johnson.
52:07You're a witch.
52:08No, I'm not.
52:09I was accused of terrible things.
52:12So I'm standing up.
52:13Enough is enough.
52:14History is what you make of it, right?
52:15So I'm making sure that mine is the truth.
52:16History is what you make of it, right?
52:17History is what you make of it, right?
52:18So I'm making sure that mine is the truth.
52:22All it took were two girls and false accusations.
52:27In a matter of days, I lost most of my friends.
52:36Do you want to say something to me?
