00:00:00A child who spends 13 years in average public schools has one chance in roughly 107,000 of a violent death in school, on school property, or while commuting to school.
00:00:1683% of the school victims and 96% of the offenders were male.
00:00:3084% of the officers were killed.
00:02:30Barry?
00:02:31Daniel.
00:02:34Hold on.
00:02:37It's the last day of school.
00:02:57Yeah, I know what today is.
00:03:07Just don't punk out on me.
00:03:37I'm a Tarx or Prostitute.
00:03:40I opened up my clock to fill your enemies.
00:03:45I am a Tarx or Prostitute.
00:03:49You iron one also and watch the pressure turn.
00:03:53I am a Tarx or Prostitute.
00:03:58Watch till the end he makes it so boring time.
00:04:07I am a Tarx or Prostitute.
00:04:37I am a Tarx or Prostitute.
00:05:07You want anything to eat, Will?
00:05:10No, I picked at that leftover pasta a couple hours ago.
00:05:13I thought I heard you up.
00:05:15Yeah, I couldn't sleep, so I thought I'd get some work done.
00:05:19Were you writing?
00:05:20Well, I was trying.
00:05:23Anything I can do to help?
00:05:26No.
00:05:27It's something I gotta go through alone.
00:05:30Hey, I thought you said real writers don't try to write, they just write.
00:05:34I used to think that.
00:05:36Maybe it's true.
00:05:38I sure was trying last night.
00:05:40So what the hell does that tell you?
00:05:41Hell, hell, hell, hell.
00:05:43Right.
00:05:44Just when I got him to stop saying shit.
00:05:46Shit, shit, shit, shit.
00:05:48Hey, James.
00:05:48Why don't you go outside and bring in your toys like I asked you to yesterday?
00:05:53I almost fell and broke my ass on him, pal.
00:05:55Ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass, ass.
00:05:58Oh, James.
00:06:28Oh, James.
00:06:58Oh, James.
00:07:29Dara, I'll be home late. Buy yourself dinner, love, Mom.
00:07:33Don't forget to take your medication.
00:07:49Speak.
00:07:50What? It's, uh, Dara.
00:07:53Dara, Dara. Hey, hey. What's she taking?
00:07:56Me. I need some meth you're holding.
00:07:58Yeah, yeah, it might be. Uh, what are you holding?
00:08:01Fifteen.
00:08:02Hmm.
00:08:05Hello?
00:08:07Hello?
00:08:09Uh, sounds good. Uh, where should I meet you?
00:08:13Your usual place. Right before home room.
00:08:16All right. You're solid.
00:08:27Hey, baby. What are you wearing?
00:08:36Hello?
00:08:39Hello, cat.
00:08:40Well, let's see.
00:08:59Karen!
00:09:01Yes, Dad?
00:09:03Was your phone ringing?
00:09:05Was it? I didn't hear it.
00:09:09What's up, Daddy?
00:09:11Just leaving for school.
00:09:13Wanted to see if you needed a ride.
00:09:15Oh, Tommy's picking me up. I'm good.
00:09:17Oh, yeah, well, make sure you stay good.
00:09:19I know how those football players are.
00:09:21Daddy, I think I can handle Tommy.
00:09:25See you after school.
00:09:27And, Karen, don't be late.
00:09:29Just because it's the last day,
00:09:31it's no excuse to be tardy.
00:09:33Thank you, Principal Lewis.
00:09:35Goodbye.
00:09:57Oh, watch the fucking roll!
00:09:59Holy shit, man. It's fucking Lewis, man.
00:10:01You just look out Lewis.
00:10:03You got to use a fuck here.
00:10:05He acts like he fucking owns a place.
00:10:07Oh, he does do that, don't he?
00:10:09My mother's tax notice pay.
00:10:11His fucking checks, he's a fucking civil servant.
00:10:13I'd like to make that dollar his last servant.
00:10:15You're so welcome.
00:10:16Now, she's worthy of the Ricky Herman special.
00:10:17Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:10:18Watch that.
00:10:19I told your mother I was stressed out that morning.
00:10:21The mouthy fucking bitch.

00:12:29After today, things are gonna change for you in a major fucking way.
00:12:35Last day of high school,
00:12:38I haven't seen, uh, no acceptance letters from colleges rolling in of you.
00:12:43It's because I didn't apply to any.
00:12:47Ah, that's my boy.
00:12:51Well, you know what?
00:12:53Start Monday, you're in for a rude fucking awakening.
00:12:58It's called work.
00:13:00Because if you ain't going to school,
00:13:02you are gonna be busting your ass to bring a buck into this household.
00:13:05You got that, buddy boy?
00:13:09Talk to me about it Monday.
00:13:13You know, I got an idea for you.
00:13:17Why don't you just enjoy today?
00:13:20Because there ain't gonna be too many more fun in the fucking sun days for you anytime real soon.
00:13:27Yeah.
00:13:30It's been heaven.
00:13:32Okay, okay, okay. I called Judy, she can cover for me.
00:13:35It's probably not gonna take very long, huh?
00:13:38I really don't...
00:13:39What's your principal's name again?
00:13:40Mr. Lewis.
00:13:41Wait, you're gonna see Mr. Lewis today?
00:13:44Yeah, I told you that last week, didn't I?
00:13:46I don't think...
00:13:47You don't think what?
00:13:48You come home with bruises on your face.
00:13:50What do you want me to do?
00:13:51Nobody does that to myself.

00:15:28If anything I learned in my twenty-three years of living in this shithole is that there's more to life than work

00:15:38Am I right, Lenny?
00:15:40You're right, you're right

00:15:50What you're gonna say, right?
00:15:51Besides, me missing my, uh, four hours of minimum wage
00:15:55And when they say minimum, they mean
00:15:57Minimum
00:15:58I promise I ain't gonna throw the delicate balance of our economy out of whack
00:16:02Someone else could fucking, you know, pump their gas and wash their windshields
00:16:07Me, sit right back, suck on this fat joint
00:16:12The world's still gonna spin

00:18:50Not the point tiger
00:18:52Of course it feels good
00:18:53What do you want to do if it didn't feel good?
00:18:55You can feel the fucking heart you make me, can't you?
00:18:58When you put my hand on there I can, yeah
00:19:01Come on, it's the last day of school
00:19:04Okay?

00:19:06Something new beginning
00:19:08I want to be inside you
00:19:10Tommy, I told you a thousand times
00:19:12I'm not ready for it
00:19:13Tommy
00:19:14This isn't negotiable
00:19:15Can't talk me into this, honey
00:19:16Sighs
00:19:17It's not like we don't do other things
00:19:18Other things
00:19:19Other things
00:19:20Other things
00:19:21Like that's an answer
00:19:23You know what?
00:19:24What?
00:19:25What?
00:19:26Never mind
00:19:27Doesn't even matter
00:19:28Tommy
00:19:29What?
00:19:30Look, we should talk maybe
00:19:31Hey Harold, what kind of school are you running here?
00:19:33No milk, no half
00:19:50Nothing
00:19:51We should talk, maybe.
00:19:58Hey, Harold, what kind of school are you running here?
00:20:00No milk, no half-and-half?
00:20:02It's like working in a sweatshop here.
00:20:03There's no dairy creamer right there.
00:20:06This is a high school, Will, not Starbucks.
00:20:08Yeah, I know. Starbucks pays better.
00:20:11Ha-ha-ha. You're here.
00:20:17You look tired, Will.
00:20:19I did sarcasm class last night.
00:20:23I thought you were teaching that class now.
00:20:25At least he's teaching something.
00:20:28I couldn't sleep. I was up at 4 a.m. trying to get some work done.
00:20:30You still writing that book?
00:20:31Yeah, I'm still writing that book.
00:20:35I should have just taken another's attics and went back to bed, though.
00:20:49We should talk, maybe.
00:20:57It's one of those days you really remember, you know?
00:21:00I'd like to take some of this day with me.
00:21:02Listen, this is what I was thinking.
00:21:04You spend four years waiting for the day to come.
00:21:06The day to get out of here.
00:21:08You start your life, you become a grown-up.
00:21:10Robin.
00:21:10And the day comes, and you're like, where the hell did all the time go?
00:21:13Four years, Kev. Four years.
00:21:16I'm with you 100%.
00:21:17What happened?
00:21:20Kevin, what happened?
00:21:21Where in the hell are my keys?
00:21:50Have you seen my keys?
00:21:51I don't know, Ma. Did you check your purse?
00:21:53Did you check my purse? Did I? Did I check my purse?
00:21:56Shit, they're not in here.
00:21:57Just relax. Have a cup of coffee.
00:21:59Like I need another cup of coffee.
00:22:02What am I supposed to do?
00:22:04You're supposed to get your shit together.
00:22:06And I don't just mean your keys and your purse.
00:22:07And you're supposed to catch the bus and make it to work.
00:22:09You'll find your keys when you come home tonight.
00:22:12You think so?
00:22:14I'm sure of it.
00:22:17Sometimes I wonder which one of us is the kid and which is the adult.
00:22:21I'm sorry. I'm a bad mom.
00:22:23Not mom.
00:22:24No, if your father were still here, things would be different.
00:22:26They would.
00:22:28I believe you.
00:22:30Before he left, I swear.
00:22:31I was, I'm so...
00:22:32Ma, you should get going.
00:22:33The bus usually runs slow, and why should Judy cover for you if you can make it in on time?
00:22:37Save the favor for another day.
00:22:38Save the favor for another day.
00:22:39Okay.
00:22:40You're right.
00:22:41Makes sense.
00:22:42I really do love you, Ma.
00:22:48You never say it first.
00:22:51I love you too, Barry.
00:22:53I love you like crazy.
00:22:57I'm sorry.
00:22:57I really wanted to help take care of this for you, though.
00:23:00It's okay.
00:23:01I can take care of it on my own.
00:23:20What's this?
00:23:21That's your future.
00:23:23I told Gus Flint you'd give him a call over the weekend.
00:23:25Who the fuck is Gus Flint?
00:23:27Hey, when did I give you permission to start cursing in this household, huh?
00:23:33Well, if I'm going to be treated like an adult around here, then I should be able to say what I want.
00:23:39Fair enough.
00:23:40But you get out of line with it, and my hand comes across your mouth.
00:23:46So, who's Gus Flint?
00:23:48Huh.
00:23:50He owns my construction company.
00:23:53He said he'd give you a job.
00:23:55Carrying bags of cement.
00:23:57It'll put some muscle tone on you.
00:24:01Jesus Christ.
00:24:02Last time I saw arms like that, they were in a coffin.
00:24:05But you know what?
00:24:07Gus is a good man.
00:24:09And if you hunt bags of cement for him for a couple months, he'll give you a try out on heavy equipment.
00:24:14So don't try to snake yourself out of it here, huh?
00:24:17You already said yes.
00:24:19Really?
00:24:21Hey!
00:24:23When did I say yes?
00:24:24You weren't there.
00:24:27You know what, Dad?
00:24:31I'm stronger than you think.
00:24:34Yeah?
00:24:36What are all those red marks on your face, son?
00:24:39Hickeys?
00:24:39You're stronger than you think.
00:24:44Yeah.
00:24:46I'll believe it when I see it.
00:24:51Call a fucking number.
00:24:52Yeah.
00:24:53Let me ask you something, Wix.
00:25:20What's your question, Vanessa?
00:25:22My name is Mrs. Jones.
00:25:24I know.
00:25:30Why, Wix?
00:25:32Just tell me why.
00:25:34Why?
00:25:35Why?
00:25:35It's easy, easy.
00:25:36What are we doing the alphabet here?
00:25:38You want to try numbers next?
00:25:39Oh, you want to try numbers?
00:25:41Well, try this one.
00:25:43You scored over 1,400 on your SATs.
00:25:46Did you know that?
00:25:47I opened my mail.
00:25:49Your teachers suspect you are a near genius IQ,
00:25:51but of course, you're not in class often enough to tell.
00:25:54Sometimes the day just gets away from me.
00:25:57You mean business gets in your way, don't you?
00:26:02That, too.
00:26:02Miss, are you looking to score?
00:26:14What do you mean?
00:26:15Because whenever you want, I got it.
00:26:16And if not, give me a day and I can get it.
00:26:20Just shut up and stand up.
00:26:22Stand up!
00:26:23Oh, fuck, Rick, I used to do that shit all the time, man.
00:26:31Fuck, some of those Frank Herman stories are fucking legendary, man.
00:26:34Yeah.
00:26:35You think?
00:26:36Nah, fuck, man.
00:26:37I never did nothing too bad to nobody.
00:26:39Hey!
00:26:40What?
00:26:40What's up?
00:26:43Ah!
00:26:44What, Len?
00:26:45That's right.
00:26:46Nothing too bad.
00:26:47I got this bastard to carry the torch, huh?
00:26:50Yeah.
00:26:50Just keeping the tradition alive, man.
00:26:54Little whiny, skinny fucks.
00:26:56Can't throw a ball and drink no beer.
00:27:01Tapping away on your little computers.
00:27:04Just learning.
00:27:05Shit, man.
00:27:06Some of those kids should just wear a fucking kick me sign on the back, you know?
00:27:11Make it easier on us.
00:27:12Yeah.
00:27:15Who are the kids you fuck with, Ricky?
00:27:17Huh?
00:27:23Shit.
00:27:23What is that?
00:27:25Shit, Dick.
00:27:25What is that?
00:27:26What are you writing on your logic?
00:27:27You got a shitty dick.
00:27:28What's going on?
00:27:29Get in here, you!
00:27:30I can't do it!
00:27:31I can't do it!
00:27:32I can't do it!
00:27:32I can't do it!
00:27:35I can't do it!
00:27:44Working on your lesson plan?
00:27:46Yeah, sure.
00:27:47will would you relax man everyone knows what you're working on nobody cares
00:27:54i know and that's the problem why it's not going so well
00:27:59define your terms are you happy with it no would anyone else enjoy reading it i doubt it
00:28:10any chance a publisher might publish it not a one
00:28:14not going so well no not really i don't know maybe it's true what they say those who can do
00:28:22those who can't i teach sex education so what are you trying to say
00:28:29it's a funny line right very clever maybe you should take a stab at writing
00:28:35no that's got to be hard man because i mean you're a creative writing teacher
00:28:43but then you're in a slump in your own writing so i mean that's that's got to be frustrating
00:28:48that's like i mean i don't know this is enough to drive a man nuts
00:28:51thanks for your help brian
00:28:52i mean that'd be like me not being able to get a heart on right
00:28:59well yeah got a minute let's go for a walk
00:29:04that's true
00:29:12so
00:29:16I don't know.
00:29:46I don't know.
00:30:16I don't know.
00:30:46You want to talk about size?
00:30:47I was hoping for six pounds or less because I'm the one who has to squeeze it out from
00:30:50between my legs.
00:30:51Or do you want to talk about what the hell happens to the rest of my life, not to mention
00:30:56my body when this kid comes to town?
00:30:58Because the thought of giving up my 20s to spoon feed some rug rat is enough to make me
00:31:03want to fucking shake.
00:31:05What do you want to talk about, Kevin?
00:31:11I want to talk about whether or not we're going to have this baby.
00:31:14Oh, is that all?
00:31:22Look, Karen, I'm sorry I'm trying to think how to say this here.
00:31:28Just say it, Tommy.
00:31:29Just be honest.
00:31:33Okay, look.
00:31:36We're about to graduate, right?
00:31:38Move on to college?
00:31:39We're going to start experiencing new things.
00:31:42Meet new people.
00:31:44Kind of wave goodbye to our old lives and hello to a different one.
00:31:48Tommy, what is all this old stuff, new stuff?
00:31:51Well, look, Karen, we've been together now for three years, right?
00:31:57That's a long time.
00:31:58I think maybe we should maybe start seeing...
00:32:00Are you freaking up with me?
00:32:01Look, I just think we should...
00:32:02Are you freaking up with me?
00:32:06Yeah.
00:32:08What?
00:32:09I said yes.
00:32:13You're serious?
00:32:16Yeah.
00:32:18This is because I won't sleep with you, isn't it?
00:32:21That's what this is all about?
00:32:23Look, Karen, I'm going to be 18 in a couple of months, all right?
00:32:26I'm older than you.
00:32:26By five months?
00:32:29Tommy.
00:32:30Look, sweetie, maybe...
00:32:33Maybe we need to talk about this for a minute, okay?
00:32:36I know this couldn't have been easy for you.
00:32:38Not having sex.
00:32:40That was my idea.
00:32:42And because you loved me so much, you agreed to hold on to your virginity, too.
00:32:46I never thought about how hard this must be on you.
00:32:51Oh, Tommy, please don't get upset.
00:32:57It's okay.
00:33:00Karen, how could you be so naive?
00:33:05You want to shoot the strip down, turn around, bend over?
00:33:09You want to send the dogs in here to sniff my crotch?
00:33:12Easy there, Vanessa.
00:33:14Take this any further, and I'm going to have your house.
00:33:16Don't touch that.
00:33:19You know, to be honest with you, I'm really enjoying this side of you.
00:33:22Pleasure's mine.
00:33:26First it's free.
00:33:26What can I do you for?
00:33:29What?
00:33:32Sit down.
00:33:36Come over here, stand up, sit down.
00:33:39At least you can do with St. Simon Says.
00:33:42Do you know what this shit is doing to my school?
00:33:44You're a fucking guidance counselor, all right?
00:33:46You're not the mayor of Happy Town here.
00:33:48It's hardly your school.
00:33:49Well, it is more my school than it is your street corner.
00:33:52I got a list of names of people around here that say different.
00:33:57You're so bright, Wex.
00:33:58But pushing this shit on impressionable kids who are not as smart as you.
00:34:02Look, I give people a little grass, a little crank,
00:34:05something to put them on a nice little trip, all right?
00:34:08That's not much different than the one that you put them on.
00:34:11You help expand people's minds.
00:34:13So why?
00:34:14You have no idea what you're doing to these kids.
00:34:18Neither do you.
00:34:20Besides, what's the worst that can happen?
00:34:35Is here to try, didn't you?
00:34:37I am.
00:34:38Oh.
00:34:39Oh.
00:34:41Oh.
00:34:41Oh.
00:34:42Oh.
00:34:42Oh.
00:34:43Oh.
00:34:44Well.
00:34:45You're still too young, Wex.
00:35:09You can't believe how bad things can get.
00:35:12Just like I thought, Ms. Jones' door is locked again.
00:35:20The door is always locked.
00:35:22Yeah, I know.
00:35:23What the hell goes on in there?
00:35:24I'd like to get an appointment with Ms. Jones.
00:35:26If not, I'd like to get an appointment with you, Ms. Weinberg.
00:35:29What do you think about that, huh, baby?
00:35:31Morning, Beth.
00:35:32Morning, Janice.
00:35:33Every morning of the last day of school is a good morning.
00:35:36What do you need, Beth?
00:35:37Is he in?
00:35:38Yes, he is, with Will Pratt.
00:35:40But they just got in there a couple of minutes ago, so go and look and see what he says.
00:35:44Okay, thanks, Janice.
00:35:46Last day.
00:35:47Last day.
00:35:49Come on in.
00:35:51Morning, Harold.
00:35:53Will.
00:35:54Hi, Beth.
00:35:55What do you have for me?
00:35:56Final absent reports of the year.
00:35:59Last day.
00:36:00I'm sorry, Will.
00:36:01But when these calls come in, I have to look into it.
00:36:02Otherwise, I'm not doing my job.
00:36:03As opposed to me not doing mine?
00:36:04Nobody is questioning whether you do your job or not.
00:36:05Well, what are they saying?
00:36:06Maybe a little rough on the kids.
00:36:07Rough?
00:36:08As in I hit them?
00:36:09Not physically, Will.
00:36:10They think your criticism of the students' work is a little harsh.
00:36:12Harold, I teach creative writing.
00:36:14How do I do that unless I critique the work that they hand in?
00:36:15But it has to be evaluated on a fair scale.
00:36:16I think that's what these complaints are in response to.
00:36:17And that's what we have to explore.
00:36:18Explore all you want.
00:36:19What do you want to know?
00:36:20How's your book going, Will?
00:36:21I'm not questioning whether you do your job or not.
00:36:23Well, what are they saying?
00:36:24Maybe a little rough on the kids.
00:36:25Rough?
00:36:26As in I hit them?
00:36:27Not physically, Will.
00:36:28They think your criticism of the students' work is a little harsh.
00:36:29Harold, I teach creative writing.
00:36:30How do I do that unless I critique the work that they hand in?
00:36:31But it has to be evaluated on a fair scale.
00:36:33I think that's what these complaints are in response to.
00:36:36And that's what we have to explore.
00:36:37Explore.
00:36:38Explore all you want.
00:36:39What do you want to know?
00:36:40How's your book going, Will?
00:36:44Where'd you get this weed, Ricky?
00:36:47It's better than the shit I get.
00:36:48Uh, this guy wax.
00:36:51He's always holding.
00:36:52I think he grows it himself.
00:36:54Let me tell you, boys.
00:36:56Enjoy the rest of your time here, all right?
00:36:58You're gonna miss it.
00:36:59Okay?
00:37:00It's good to know, little brother, the apple don't fall far from the tree.
00:37:05Pop's trick.
00:37:06Yeah.
00:37:07Yeah.
00:37:08Ricky's got a real knack with people.
00:37:10That's right.
00:37:11Yeah.
00:37:12He's, uh, person people.
00:37:14People person, asshole.
00:37:16Hey, wait, wait.
00:37:19So, Frank.
00:37:20Like, what's the craziest shit you ever did?
00:37:22I mean, craziest.
00:37:24Oh, man.
00:37:25I don't know.
00:37:26I don't think about that shit no more.
00:37:28Oh, come on, Frankie.
00:37:29Tell us, man.
00:37:30We ain't got shit to do.
00:37:31Nah.
00:37:32Anything spring to mind, Lenny?
00:37:34Snap out of it, Spicoli.
00:37:36These kids want a crazy story.
00:37:38They want a story about the craziest shit I did during my time here.
00:37:41Hmm.
00:37:42Think about it.
00:37:43Slow White?
00:37:45I was thinking the same thing all along.
00:37:48Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:37:49What's Slow White?
00:37:50It's not a what.
00:37:51It's a who.
00:37:52Slow-well is why.
00:37:55The nickname was Slow White because she was kind of slow on the head.
00:37:59You know, I don't think she was retarded technically or nothing like that, but, uh, she was well on her way.
00:38:04Right, Lenny?
00:38:05He's right.
00:38:06He's right.
00:38:07So, uh, listen, we were, uh, we were playing stickball in Little Joe B's driveway.
00:38:14It was, uh, we used to always get out there after school, you know?
00:38:17So it was, uh, it was me, Joe, Dave, and, uh, this guy Jake.
00:38:21Jake, yeah.
00:38:22And, uh, so we'd be out there and, you know, his parents were always at work, so we'd always
00:38:27have the driveway free, right?
00:38:29And, uh, this one afternoon, we're finishing up a quick four innings, right?
00:38:33Getting ready to go inside, have a few real big Joe B's beers, you know what I'm saying?
00:38:38Went up rides.
00:38:40Slow White.
00:38:43She's about 16, same as us.
00:38:46She don't go to our school, I guess they, uh, you know, they ain't equipped to deal with
00:38:50her car.
00:38:51But, you know, she comes around, she's watching this play.
00:38:56And she might be kind of fucked up, right?
00:38:59But she's also got this mad killer body.
00:39:01Uh-huh.
00:39:02You know what I'm saying?
00:39:03Like, whatever guy left out of her head, he slapped on her chest.
00:39:05You know what I'm saying?
00:39:06Like, boom!
00:39:07So she came by and, uh, you know, we're playing, we're finishing up.
00:39:12And I thought I'd be a nice guy.
00:39:15You know, I got a hot.
00:39:16I got a hot.
00:39:17You know?
00:39:18So I'm like, you want to come in?
00:39:21You want to have a beer?
00:39:23Oh!
00:39:24Oh!
00:39:25Oh!
00:39:26Oh!
00:39:27Whole face that up, right?
00:39:28Excited!
00:39:29The greatest thing that ever happened to her, right?
00:39:31So we end up in the basement, we're, uh, you know, we're knocking them back.
00:39:34We're feeling good.
00:39:35We got our 12.
00:39:36I got my 12 back.
00:39:38And, uh, they dropped some, some smooth toys and stuff.
00:39:45DJ Mix Master Davey.
00:39:48Yeah.
00:39:49We couldn't, we couldn't resist this opportunity.
00:39:51We're like, listen.
00:39:52Hey, Alice, uh, you know, we'd like to see some, you want to get up?
00:39:55You want to dance for us?
00:39:57Bam!
00:39:58Like that.
00:39:59Got up, started dancing, right?
00:40:01Oh, she's shaking a groove thing, like, ah, ah, ah.
00:40:04She looked a little silly, want to know the truth?
00:40:06You know, you can imagine the rhythm, but, uh.
00:40:08It was fucking funny, right?
00:40:09No one was complaining.
00:40:10It was fucking funny.
00:40:11Right.
00:40:12So, uh, you know, we start dancing with her.
00:40:16Yeah.
00:40:17Well, everybody except Jay fucking got dicks right out, but, uh, you know, me, Joe and
00:40:21Jay, we keep switching.
00:40:23We're spinning around the floor.
00:40:25We're feeling good.
00:40:26She looks good, too.
00:40:28And then Joe, crazy fuck, starts making out.
00:40:34She never said who it was.
00:40:36She was discreet.
00:40:37We can appreciate that.
00:40:39BAM!
00:40:40Yeah, I heard about that.
00:40:41That was you?
00:40:42Yeah, man, it was.
00:40:43I heard that stickball bat got involved.
00:40:50Fucking rumors, right?
00:40:51Yeah.
00:40:52It's just rumors, Ricky.
00:40:53It's just rumors, Ricky.
00:40:54So, uh, like I said, enjoy your time here, White.
00:40:56Yeah, I heard about that.
00:40:57That was you?
00:40:58Yeah, man, it was.
00:40:59I heard that stickball bat got involved.
00:41:00Fucking rumors, right?
00:41:01Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:41:02It's just rumors, Ricky.
00:41:03So, uh, like I said, enjoy your time here while you can.
00:41:23Why are we walking this way?
00:41:35We can just double back and cut to the soccer field.
00:41:37Come on.
00:41:38Add a half mile to the trip.
00:41:40Why?
00:41:41For what?
00:41:42You know why and you know for what.
00:41:45Yeah.
00:41:46Well, that reason sucks.
00:41:49I'm sick of this shit, Barry.
00:41:51I know you are.
00:41:53What?
00:41:54No.
00:41:55I fucking mean it.
00:41:56I'm really sick of this.
00:41:58I'm home.
00:41:59I take shit from my father every stupid goddamn day.
00:42:04Like it was his second job.
00:42:06And there's nothing I can do about that.
00:42:08I come here.
00:42:10I take shit from these ignorant motherfuckers who shouldn't even be allowed to wipe my ass.
00:42:16Much less kick it over and over again.
00:42:18And there's nothing you can do about that either.
00:42:20Yeah.
00:42:21Well, I might argue with you on that.
00:42:23There's stuff that can be done.
00:42:24Okay, well, let's not start worrying about that now.
00:42:26We got a couple more weeks left and then it's over forever.
00:42:29We really left our mark here, didn't we?
00:42:33That's 12 years of beatings and degrading bullshit.
00:42:37This crap's been going on since the first fucking grade.
00:42:40What's our legacy?
00:42:42We saw, we came, we got pissed on weekly?
00:42:47Fuck that.
00:42:49I don't know about you, but I'm gonna walk where I wanna walk, Barry.
00:42:56And if you had an ounce of respect for yourself, you'd walk right beside me.
00:43:02Like I said, we got a couple more weeks left and then it's a fresh start.
00:43:05Forget about two weeks, okay?
00:43:06Forget about it.
00:43:07No one shits on Daniel Lynn ever again.
00:43:10You can believe that.
00:43:16Look at these boys!
00:43:18You knew they were here teaching.
00:43:20I'm just walking.
00:43:21What the fuck are you doing here, Danny?
00:43:24Hey, Danny.
00:43:25Hey, Danny.
00:43:26No, no, no.
00:43:27I'm chill, chill.
00:43:28I just wanna give you a hug.
00:43:29I just wanna give you a high five.
00:43:30What's up, baby?
00:43:31Come on.
00:43:32Danny, you're too.
00:43:33Don't touch my face.
00:43:34I wanna talk to you.
00:43:37Oh!
00:43:38Calm down, calm down!
00:43:39He slipped!
00:43:40Are you okay?
00:43:41No.
00:43:42Oh, calm down.
00:43:43Chill out, alright?
00:43:44Hey!
00:43:45We're just hanging out, man.
00:43:46What?
00:43:47What?
00:43:48It's nothing like that, Danny.
00:43:49Okay?
00:43:50It's nothing like that.
00:43:51We're just hanging out.

00:43:57Oh!
00:43:58Oh!
00:43:59Oh!
00:44:00What?
00:44:01See what happened?
00:44:02What?
00:44:03What are you crying?
00:44:04No, don't be crying.
00:44:05No, no, no.
00:44:06See, this is what happened.
00:44:07What are you crying?
00:44:08Stay the fuck down!
00:44:17Stay the fuck down!
00:44:18See what happened?
00:44:19Oh!
00:44:20Oh!
00:44:21You stay down there!
00:44:22Don't cry!
00:44:23Fucking shit!
00:44:24What?
00:44:26Ah!
00:44:27Fuck!
00:44:28Fuck!
00:44:29Wait!
00:44:30Wait!
00:44:31Wait!
00:44:32Wait!
00:44:33I'm sorry!
00:44:34I'm sorry!
00:44:35I'm sorry!
00:44:36I'm sorry!
00:44:37I'm sorry!
00:44:38I'm sorry!
00:44:39I'm sorry!
00:44:40Just fuck off!
00:44:41Leave me alone!
00:44:42What?
00:44:43What?
00:44:44You little fucking monkey?
00:44:45Are you gonna go up to be somebody?
00:44:46Huh?
00:44:47Who are you gonna be?
00:44:48Who are you gonna be?
00:44:49Huh?
00:44:50Where are you going?
00:44:51Where are you going?
00:44:52Where are you going?
00:44:53Get up!
00:44:54Hold on!
00:44:55You gotta get up!
00:44:56Get up!
00:44:57Get up!
00:44:58Get up!
00:44:59Ah!
00:45:00Ah!
00:45:01Ah!
00:45:02Ah!
00:45:03Ah!
00:45:04Ah!
00:45:05That hurts!
00:45:06Ah!
00:45:07Ah!
00:45:08Ah!
00:45:09Ah!
00:45:10Ah!
00:45:11Ah!
00:45:12Ah!
00:45:13Ah!
00:45:14Ah!
00:45:15Ah!
00:45:16Yeah!
00:45:18Ah!
00:45:19Ah!
00:45:21Ah!
00:45:22Ah!
00:45:23Ah!
00:45:24Ah!
00:45:25Ah!
00:45:26Ah!
00:45:27Ah!
00:45:28You've learned each other for a long time.
00:45:29times when. You know what I mean? Hasn't it been fun, though? Huh? Huh? No, you don't have to say it. I know you love it.
00:45:41Ah, it's just another couple of weeks left, boys. I was getting worried that we would never cross paths
00:45:46again, you know what I mean? Then you gotta come coming around our grass. You know what I mean?
00:45:51This is where we go to think. It's sacred. I just think that's a really shitty thing for you, uh, to do,
00:46:01don't you think, Donnie? You're right, Ricky. You're right. I think something shitty should happen to you.
00:46:14Come on. Come here. No! Come on. No! No! Come here. No! No! No! See that?
00:46:21You're gonna eat it. Eat it. Ow! Come on! Eat it! Ow!
00:46:32Up here! Look at it! Look at it! No! Watch you! Eat that shit! Ow!
00:46:39Come here! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! That's disgusting! Look at you! Look at you!
00:46:51Oh!
00:46:52Get him!
00:46:59Hey.
00:47:00Let's go for that walk.
00:47:05I.
00:47:06Am.
00:47:07Not.
00:47:08A.
00:47:09Virgin.
00:47:13Don't look at me like I have three heads, okay?
00:47:16Look, I'm not exactly the exception to the rule here, Karen.
00:47:19This whole school fucks.
00:47:21All right? Everybody except for you.
00:47:25Why are you saying this?
00:47:26Because I'm not lying.
00:47:28Look, hey.
00:47:29We always promise to tell each other the truth, right?
00:47:32I kind of let that slide for a little while.
00:47:35And now I'm being straight with you.
00:47:37I mean, I know you're not crazy about me when I'm straight with you and all.
00:47:40Who have you fucked?
00:47:44I thought I heard you say that word before.
00:47:46It's kind of hot.
00:47:48Hey.
00:47:51I fucked your friend, Sarah.
00:47:54What?
00:47:57She's one of my best friends.
00:47:59I dropped you off after a typical Friday night of cock-teasing, and I stopped by Sarah's house.
00:48:05I mean, I was gonna explode, Karen.
00:48:07What did you expect me to do?
00:48:09Look, you shouldn't start something you don't plan on finishing, okay?
00:48:12Because there'll always be someone around who will.
00:48:15She made me promise.
00:48:16She made me promise.
00:48:19Um.
00:48:22I stopped counting after eight.
00:48:23The apple falls far from the tree.
00:48:24Ice cruise.
00:48:25It's not its own crimson reflection.
00:48:26In the mirror on the wall.
00:48:27You don't have to be alone.
00:48:28It's your destiny.
00:48:29You have to be alone.
00:48:30It's your destiny.
00:48:31You have to be alone.
00:48:32You have to be alone.
00:48:33You have to be alone.
00:48:34You have to be alone.
00:48:35You have to be alone.
00:48:36You have to be alone.
00:48:37You have to be alone.
00:48:38You're the chosen one.
00:48:39You're the chosen one.
00:48:40You are the one.
00:48:41You are the one.
00:48:42Kill them all.
00:48:43Kill them.
00:48:44Kill them all.
00:48:45You are the one.
00:48:46I will lay up the sky.
00:48:47Wake it from its sleep.
00:48:48Are those really your feelings when you put down on paper?
00:48:50Who's the happiest one of all?
00:48:52You are the one.
00:48:53When happiness blasts face down in the gutter.
00:48:55Kill them all.
00:48:56You are the one.
00:48:58I will light up the sky.
00:49:01Wake it from its sleep.
00:49:02Are those really your feelings?
00:49:03Put down on paper.
00:49:06That is so silly.
00:49:08Life is a portrait of an artist?
00:49:12Don't waste our time.
00:49:16It will know true darkness to not be dark.
00:49:18Black.
00:49:19Black is me.
00:49:20What am I going to do with you, ex?
00:49:23Well, I can call the cops and turn you in for all this shit lying on my desk.
00:49:27I could do that.
00:49:28But what is that really going to accomplish?
00:49:31You spend some time locked up.
00:49:33All it does is you take two steps farther away from recognizing you can do more with your life than to shovel this crap into kids.
00:49:43We don't want to end.
00:49:46So I guess our only choice here is to let me go.
00:49:49I guess so.
00:49:52But the dope stays here.
00:49:54It's not a problem.
00:49:55No, that is the problem.
00:49:56Well, what do you care?
00:49:58They pay you nothing here.
00:50:01You get no respect from the people you're trying to help.
00:50:03It sounds like a shit job.
00:50:05I get more out of whatever I can give these kids than you'll ever get out of your mind.
00:50:10Fuck.
00:50:11I got to get going.
00:50:15Home room starts soon.
00:50:17I got to see if the dog ate my homers.
00:50:19Oh, well, for some reason, I'm guessing he probably did.
00:50:24Fucking dogs.
00:50:25Thanks for your time, Vanessa.
00:50:33Tell you what.
00:50:34You keep the wheels of education spinning, I'll keep them greased.
00:50:38I'm sure it's not easy.
00:50:46You're trying to teach kids how to write.
00:50:48Something you're lacking confidence in your own ability to do right now.
00:50:51It's like telling a math teacher who doesn't know how to carry the wand.
00:50:55Yours is a class with a lot of gray area.
00:50:58It's not just two plus two.
00:50:59So what do we do now, Harold?
00:51:02We need to have this conversation.
00:51:05And then I'll let you get back to your job.
00:51:08I'm not here to screw up your world, Will.
00:51:10I happen to think you're a very talented teacher.
00:51:13And from what I can gather and from what you have shown me,
00:51:15I would venture to guess that you're a talented writer as well.
00:51:19But I also know that there's an innate jealousy and rivalry among writers
00:51:23that I have to make sure stays out of your classroom.
00:51:26These kids are not your peers, Will.
00:51:28I know that.
00:51:28They're not your competition.
00:51:30I know that, too.
00:51:42Where did you get those?
00:51:44Off your desk, Will.
00:51:45Why didn't you just ask me?
00:51:46I'm asking now.
00:51:49And don't look at me like I don't have the right, because I do.
00:51:53I think some of these are graded unfairly, Will.
00:51:56And I want you to tell me why.
00:51:58Look, we have certain options here I think we need to start thinking about.
00:52:03We don't need to make a decision right this second.
00:52:05But we've been letting this lie for too long.
00:52:07We should start thinking about...
00:52:08We?
00:52:09I didn't realize this was such a we situation.
00:52:11Well, I do feel like we're both responsible for the...
00:52:13That's funny, because when I was throwing up early this morning, I thought I was alone.
00:52:18I'm sorry.
00:52:18Were you there?
00:52:19You sound like a fucking lawyer.
00:52:23You know, I worked my ass off for ten years to get into Wellington.
00:52:29I know.
00:52:30Extra homework, extra ass-kissing.
00:52:32There's nothing to stop you from going to Wellington.
00:52:34I beg to differ.
00:52:48I brought some money in case that's the way it went.
00:52:50You did?
00:52:55I wanted to be prepared.
00:53:01Familiar with the phrase, too little, too late?
00:53:03So what happened to her?
00:53:07What happened to who?
00:53:09Slow white.
00:53:11When you guys were all finished, what happened to her?
00:53:15I don't know, man.
00:53:16I guess she went back to her thing, you know?
00:53:19Just riding her bike around town, giving people hugs, you know?
00:53:27She never came.
00:53:30Watched you play stickball again, did she?
00:53:33No.
00:53:34I told you, man, she didn't go to our school, so she didn't really, uh, you know, come around.
00:53:43Did Pop know that story?
00:53:46Uh, yeah.
00:53:47It happened this September before I was in the hospital.
00:53:50I used to tell Pop all my stories.
00:53:53What did he say?
00:53:54He said it was something him and his friends might have done.
00:54:00He said that?
00:54:01Yeah.
00:54:01Listen, Pop was a real fucking hell-raiser, man.
00:54:07Fucking like.
00:54:09Just like me.
00:54:11Just like you.
00:54:14Ample don't fall far, little brother.
00:54:15You guys got some set of balls, I'll tell you that much.
00:54:22Do they have balls, Jeff?
00:54:24I don't know, Rick.
00:54:25Do they?
00:54:27I don't know.
00:54:28I think they do.
00:54:33I mean, I really don't know.
00:54:38Let's see.
00:54:41You're balls.
00:54:42I don't know.
00:54:43I don't know, maybe I was wrong.
00:54:59I don't know.
00:55:00What's up with you two, man?
00:55:02You're obviously not showers.
00:55:06So let's see if you're growers.
00:55:10What?
00:55:14Get it up.
00:55:14Oh, my God, what the hell happened to you?
00:55:35Just leave me alone.
00:55:35What the hell happened to you?
00:55:36Just leave me alone.
00:55:37What the hell happened to you?
00:55:49Talk to me, Danielle.
00:55:53Nothing.
00:55:57Oh, pussy.
00:56:03Hey, Daniel.
00:56:04Hi.
00:56:04He's upstairs.
00:56:05Hey, what did you do to your face?
00:56:06Oh, yeah.
00:56:07It's, um, it doesn't do well.
00:56:09What?
00:56:14No.
00:56:16Why couldn't we?
00:56:18Why?
00:56:20Okay, we're not.
00:56:22Okay, I'm not.
00:56:24We're not those kind of guys.
00:56:26What kind of guys?
00:56:29Guys that decide to stop taking abuse?
00:56:32Guys that take control of their own lives?
00:56:35What kind of guys are we, Barry?
00:56:37What kind of guys are we, Barry?
00:56:38Me?
00:56:39Me?
00:56:40I'm the kind of guy whose father likes to laugh at him when he comes home with cuts on his
00:56:45face.
00:56:47If he isn't too busy putting new ones on himself.
00:56:50Then I get to go to school and smear shit on myself.
00:56:54Then I get to go to school and smear shit on myself.
00:56:56And you?
00:56:57What kind of guy are you?
00:57:01What kind of guy whose father walks out on him while he's still in short pants?
00:57:06The kind of guy who cowers in the corner and leaves absolutely no impression on anything?
00:57:11Nobody gives a fuck about me, Barry.
00:57:13And you know what?
00:57:14No one gives a fuck about you.
00:57:16Except me.
00:57:18I'm the only friend you've ever had.
00:57:22Right or wrong?
00:57:24You're right.
00:57:25What pleasures do you have in your life?
00:57:35Has high school taught you anything except how much this world blows?
00:57:39That expression's true.
00:57:40Life does suck.
00:57:41And then you do die.
00:57:42It's what you do before then that matters.
00:57:44What mark you left.
00:57:45And since I could give a fuck whether or not I live or die, that's the only thing that
00:57:51I care about.
00:57:55What is that?
00:57:58I want those motherfuckers to know what they've done to me.
00:58:03I want them to feel it.
00:58:06And I want them to know that it's not okay.
00:58:09It's not okay.
00:58:11What kind of guys?
00:58:13You know what?
00:58:14The whole fucking world is going to be talking about us.
00:58:17About how we took a stand.
00:58:19About how we said no more.
00:58:22When we light up that fucking place, man, when it's their blood that's getting spilled
00:58:26as opposed to ours, everyone's going to know.
00:58:29Those are the kind of guys we were.
00:58:31Wait, the kind of guys we were?
00:58:34Yeah, the chances of us getting out alive aren't so great.
00:58:37What were you going to do with the rest of your life?
00:58:40Huh?
00:58:41What were you going to do that was going to be so special?
00:58:43Don't go developing dreams of grandeur on me now, Barry.
00:58:46You're not that guy.
00:58:48Hey.
00:58:51What?
00:58:55Where would we get them from?
00:58:57I know a kid whose uncle's a vet.
00:58:59And he's looking down low.
00:59:01I can cover it.
00:59:05What are you thinking?
00:59:06Last day in school, first bell before homeroom.
00:59:18So?
00:59:21What are you going to say?
00:59:24What do you say?
00:59:26You're not going to punk out on me, are you?
00:59:36You're not going to punk out on me, you're not going to punk out.
00:59:37We're not gonna stick to that part.
00:59:38Just stop moving.
00:59:39You're not going to punk out on me.
00:59:40I'll keep going to just get them in the middle of a bit.
00:59:41What's your opinion?
00:59:42You're not going to punk out on me.
00:59:43I'll keep going to punk out.
00:59:44Hold on.
00:59:45If you're not going to punk out off our head.
00:59:46He didn't give you any problem at all.
00:59:47I don't care less about what I wanted them for so long as I gave them the money.
00:59:50He didn't give you any problem at all?
01:00:00I care less about what I wanted him for so long as I gave him the money.
01:00:04It's called big business, Barry.
01:00:06I mean, it's time to grow up.
01:00:08What if the guy went and called the cops?
01:00:10What the hell are we going to do then?
01:00:11You relax.
01:00:13Listen, this happens all the time.
01:00:16It's harder to get a fake ID and more dangerous, believe me.
01:00:20So I'll be over soon.
01:00:24We should start heading over there.
01:00:27First bell's going to ring soon.
01:00:30I'd marry you.
01:00:34I'd marry you and have this baby.
01:00:36I would. Would that make a difference to you?
01:00:43I am going to take that waitress job.
01:00:46It's a couple of extra bucks for next year.
01:00:49Just think about it, okay?
01:00:52There was this one other girl not long ago, maybe, uh, was it two weeks?
01:00:58She was hanging out by the Lucky Mart by herself on, like, I don't know, was it Tuesday or Wednesday?
01:01:02I just, I pulled up to her and asked if she wanted a ride, you know?
01:01:06She looked kind of grateful.
01:01:08She, uh, she goes to our school, but she's a loser.
01:01:11I don't want her friends, you know?
01:01:13Doesn't get asked to go for rides too often, I bet.
01:01:16She had a decent body under all those creepy clothes, I mean, who knew?
01:01:20I fucked her in the back of the truck here and then dropped her off to the store.
01:01:24I mean, hey, I could tell, though, right?
01:01:26Like, the way she looked at me, I had done the right thing.
01:01:30She, she looked so happy.
01:01:32She was almost pretty.
01:01:33I gave her that.
01:01:37Actually, I've given it to her four times so far, Karen.
01:01:41Sometimes I just drive by there late at night and she's always there.
01:01:45Just the girl likes slushies.
01:01:48Why did you tell me all this?
01:01:50I don't know.
01:01:54Did you ever love me?
01:01:57Well, maybe for a couple weeks.
01:02:00I don't know you.
01:02:01Hey, Karen.
01:02:04You never really did.
01:02:08Hey, Karen.
01:02:10Karen.
01:02:12You're fucking teased.
01:02:16You guys ready for this?
01:02:18Oh, fuck.
01:02:20Vicky.
01:02:21What's up, man?
01:02:23Shrenko.
01:02:25What's up, dog?
01:02:27What did you mean before when you said enjoy your time here?
01:02:29What's your dad, yo?
01:02:32Shit doesn't get in Berlin does here.
01:02:34Really?
01:02:36Is that a fact?
01:02:37Yeah.
01:02:38Yeah.
01:02:39You know, I mean, at least here you can, you know, you can do stuff.
01:02:42You know, you can affect people's lives.
01:02:45You know, out there you're just another fucking number, man.
01:02:47You know, just working, chugging along, making a living.
01:02:50Some days, anyway.
01:02:51You know what I'm doing tonight?
01:02:54Exactly.
01:02:56You'll be here soon enough, and you'll see.
01:03:00What are you doing right now?
01:03:02Oh, man, I don't know.
01:03:03I just, uh...
01:03:04Can't hang out here after 8.30.
01:03:06Fucking rent-a-cops always hassling me.
01:03:08You know, it's fun.
01:03:08I used to go to school with half these fucks.
01:03:11You know what I mean?
01:03:13Have some fun, man.
01:03:17Listen, Rick, Rick, Rick.
01:03:19You know, today, today's your last day.
01:03:21You give him some extra hell today.
01:03:25Because tomorrow, these little fucks
01:03:27are gonna be the people you wish you were.
01:03:31You make them pay for that today.
01:03:34Am I right, Lenny?
01:03:35Yeah, Frank, you see the right.
01:03:37See?
01:03:38You gotta make them pay.
01:03:40Come on.
01:03:42Oh, this bitch.
01:03:48You gotta make them pay.
01:05:26I don't know why I would have written this.
01:05:28There must be something...
01:05:29I hate to throw this at you, Will.
01:05:32Seeing as this is the last day of the year, but I really need you to look at these again.
01:05:36I will.
01:05:36And I need their final grades to be based on a fairer scale.
01:05:39Of course.
01:05:40And one more thing.
01:05:44Ease up on the students reading their work out loud.
01:05:47It can be a little heavy on their psyches.
01:05:49Let's remember they're still just kids.
01:05:52They didn't sign up to be criticized in public.
01:05:55It happens too much outside the classroom door to start bringing it inside.
01:05:58I can see how that would be a problem.
01:06:01Just be more aware what your job is.
01:06:03And try to separate it from the other part of your life.
01:06:05That's all.
01:06:07You know...
01:06:08This is good.
01:06:10I mean, this is really good.
01:06:11I'll get this back to you by tomorrow afternoon.
01:06:16Is that okay?
01:06:17Tomorrow is fine, Will.
01:06:19And you've still got all today with the kids.
01:06:22It's not too late.
01:06:41I mean, this is really good.
01:07:11Hey, Robin.
01:07:17How are you?
01:07:18Hey, do you?
01:07:19Just great.
01:07:34Hey, Amanda.
01:07:36You okay?
01:07:37Fine.
01:07:37You need anything?
01:07:38No.
01:07:38Fine.
01:07:41Fine.
01:07:42Fine.
01:07:51Hi.
01:07:52Look, um...
01:07:53Is it the summer?
01:07:54I don't know.
01:07:55Wait.
01:07:56Hang out.
01:07:57Hopps and fun.
01:07:59Bye-bye.
01:08:00Bye-bye.
01:08:25I should wake up.
01:08:29Sure.
01:08:30Any day, any time.
01:08:31You know how to find me.
01:08:32All right.
01:08:33I'll give you rain, okay?
01:08:34All right.
01:08:35That's right.
01:08:36All right.
01:08:55I don't want to take a piss.
01:09:08Thanks for telling me.
01:09:10Love it.
01:09:11Love it.
01:09:13Whatever you want to do, I'm going to be okay with.
01:09:16I want you to know that.
01:09:25I know you wouldn't buck out on me.
01:09:40Let me show you the guns.
01:09:55Excuse me, Mr. Lewis.
01:09:59Sorry, I forgot to give you these.
01:10:02Now stay.
01:10:03Let me show you the guns.
01:10:33Let me show you the guns.
01:11:03Let me show you the guns.
01:11:21Let me show you the guns.
01:11:26I do.
01:11:42Guys, before we get started,
01:11:46before we get started, I'd like to talk about something.
01:11:51It's been brought to my attention
01:11:52that some of you think I've been overly critical of your work,
01:11:59your writing, maybe even unfair.
01:12:04And I think you're right.
01:12:07I have been.
01:12:08So what I'd like to talk about is change, if I can.
01:12:12It's the last day of school, so maybe it's too late.
01:12:14I don't know.
01:12:15But I'm not so much a teacher that I can't apologize.
01:12:20And you are my students.
01:12:21You're just kids.
01:12:22And I don't mean that as an insult.
01:12:24It's the opposite, actually.
01:12:26And my job is to recognize that and to nurture it,
01:12:29and I didn't.
01:12:30I guess I forgot what it's like to be a high school student.
01:12:33And I don't want to be a part of anything
01:12:34that might discourage you
01:12:37or put you towards some sort of edge.
01:12:41So hey, guys.
01:12:43I'm sorry.
01:12:44Don't move.
01:12:57And don't fucking talk.
01:12:59I said don't fucking talk.
01:13:01I'm going to talk.
01:13:03Me, do you understand?
01:13:06All right, not if you understand what I'm saying.
01:13:08Let me get on your knees.
01:13:12Get on your fucking knees!
01:13:14Why are you on your knees, Paul?
01:13:25Why are you on your knees, Paul?
01:13:27Huh?
01:13:27Is it because I got a gun in my hand?
01:13:30Does a gun scare you?
01:13:32Do whatever you want to me.
01:13:34Assault me.
01:13:35Kick me.
01:13:36Shit on me.
01:13:37And the only thing I can do
01:13:38to get some fucking respect from you
01:13:40is to hold a gun on you?
01:13:43This is pathetic.
01:13:45And this is your fault.
01:13:50Me thought I was weak.
01:13:52Who's weak now, huh?
01:13:54How weak am I now?
01:13:59They teach us that
01:14:01man evolved from apes.
01:14:05I think that's wrong.
01:14:08I think man
01:14:09evolved from dogs.
01:14:13Don't fucking laugh at me.
01:14:16You know what happens
01:14:17when you kick a dog
01:14:18one too many times?
01:14:20Go ahead, you can answer that one.
01:14:22What happens when you kick a dog
01:14:23long enough?
01:14:26I don't know.
01:14:26I don't know.
01:14:35They bite.
01:14:39They bite.
01:15:01Thanks, I couldn't run this without you.
01:15:03Hey, here comes a little fucker, man.
01:15:15Want to get some last lesson with him?
01:15:18No, just leave him alone.
01:15:20Fuck that shit, man.
01:15:21One last time.
01:15:22Just leave him alone.
01:15:25What the hell?
01:15:26All right.
01:15:37All right.
01:15:37Look!
01:15:38Look!
01:15:39Look!
01:15:40Go!
01:15:41Go!
01:15:42Go!
01:16:07Stop it!
01:16:17Leave me alone!
01:16:18They're dead!
01:16:20They're dead!
01:16:21I saw it!
01:16:22Stop it!
01:16:22Stop!
01:16:26You gotta carry me!
01:16:29You gotta carry me!
01:16:37You gotta carry me!
01:17:07I did punk out on him.
01:17:27I don't know.
01:17:28Maybe there are other ways to take a stand.
01:17:31I hope my kids, any kids, don't have to go through what we did.
01:17:37I lost my only friend on that last day of school.
01:17:44The last word that we've received is that there are seven people confirmed dead, including
01:17:48one teacher, William Pratt, who taught creative writing.
01:17:51Police and ambulances arrived on the scene around 8.40 a.m., about 10 minutes after the
01:17:56first shot was fired, but the damage was already done.
01:17:59The names of the two shooters have now been released.
01:18:01Dara McDermott, who is now in police custody, was taken down and held by senior student
01:18:06Donny Preetsey, who is being hailed as a true hero.
01:18:08The other is Daniel Lynn, who committed suicide shortly after the first shot was fired.
01:18:13Now, Lynn is believed at this time to be the ringleader of the shooting, the fourth in
01:18:17the United States so far this year.
01:18:18The stark truth and frightening reality of the situation is that it is difficult to pinpoint
01:18:23where these events begin.
01:18:25Violent movies, video games, parental neglect, the availability of weapons could all be considered
01:18:30factors.
01:18:31But one thing that is clear, as long as there are brave people like Donny Preetsey, there
01:18:35is hope for America's youth.
01:18:38This is John Robinson reporting live from Riverside, Iowa.
01:18:41March 24th, 1998, Jonesboro, Arkansas.

01:19:37His parents were later found dead at home.
01:19:40April 20th, 1999, Littleton, Colorado.
01:19:43Fourteen students and one teacher killed, 23 others wounded at Columbine High School.
01:19:48Eric Harris, 18, and Dylan Claybold, 17, had plotted for a year to kill at least 500 and
01:19:54blow up their school.

01:20:06Myers High School in the first fatal high school shooting in Canada in 20 years.

01:20:15by his classmates.

01:20:50without clearance.
01:20:51A suicide note praising Osama bin Laden and the September 11th terrorist attacks was found
01:20:56in his pocket.
01:20:57Bishop was the only fatality.
01:21:11I'll wash away your pain, I'll stand up.
01:21:17Can't you see there's no sense crying anymore?
01:21:22When high times come, they'll go, they'll fade out.
01:21:27Yeah.
01:21:29So take my hand, I'll try to help you through the door.

01:21:43So put your shoes on, walk on by the roads you pay.
01:21:49And the ones you pay won't last forever.

01:23:00Never, no, never.
01:23:03Never, no, never.
01:23:05And you can't say, the love you gave will be forever.
01:23:12So put your shoes on, walk on by the roads you pay.
01:23:18And you can't say, the love you gave will be forever.
01:23:22And you can't say, the love you gave will be forever.
01:23:27And you can't say, the love you gave will be forever.
01:23:28And you can't say, the love you gave will be forever.
01:23:57The road you made are the ones you gave, they won't lie forever, never, no, never, and you can't say, the love you gave will be won, so put your shoes on, walk your mind, what's done in time, now stop to run,
01:24:26and take a look inside you, cause you're spread out everywhere.
