Short filmTranscript
00:00:04So, another teacher quit because of you over the weekend?
00:00:07That's what? Fourth this year?
00:00:11Uh, I heard the new visa check.
00:00:13Yale grad with a master's in literature.
00:00:15So what, you won't last a month with Timmy here?
00:00:18I can't believe you didn't get detention once.
00:00:21Even after everything you've done?
00:00:22That's kind of the whole point, Mark. His mom is principal.
00:00:25Right. She's jealous.
00:00:27Wish I could just mess around all day.
00:00:33So, what are you gonna do to this one?
00:00:44I'm Ms. Swan. I'm your AP literature teacher starting today.
00:00:50Alright, I believe you were about halfway through Jane Eyre.
00:00:54Can anyone tell me what shop are you on?
00:00:56We'll tell you. If you take your dress off.
00:01:08What's your name?
00:01:10There's no vaping in my class.
00:01:12That's a detention for you.
00:01:21Well, Charlotte, my name's Timothy. Timothy Wolf.
00:01:27Welcome to my school.
00:01:32Welcome to my school.
00:01:36Looks like someone didn't do her homework.
00:01:38Timothy Wolf. Amber Wolf's son.
00:01:40As in the school principal?
00:01:43I do not care who your mother is.
00:01:48You're gonna regret that, Ms. Swan.
00:01:51Since no one wants to fill me in, grab your pens.
00:01:53We're doing a writing assessment.
00:01:55Oh, no.
00:02:12St. James Private Academy, huh?
00:02:14Did you follow me?
00:02:17You can't seem to remember to pay me my dues.
00:02:22The waitress dog barely covers rent.
00:02:24I don't think it's my responsibility to support your gambling habit.
00:02:29You ungrateful bitch.
00:02:31I want $3,000 or I'll go to your fancy little school with fancy little uniforms
00:02:37and tell everyone your father had an affair with a student.
00:02:41She's the only family you have left, Charlotte.
00:02:44You have to take care of her no matter what.
00:02:55I don't want to make you cry again.
00:02:59Just stay out of my way and I'll let you keep your job, okay?
00:03:07You didn't make me cry.
00:03:11Timothy, was it?
00:03:22You owe me two detentions.
00:03:24Two? For what?
00:03:26One for harassing me and one for vaping in class.
00:03:30Honestly, letting you off with just detention seems too nice, but...
00:03:34I think that we started off on the wrong foot and I hope that this corrects it.
00:03:39Are you kidding me?
00:03:40I don't do detentions.
00:03:43Well, I guess you do now.
00:03:45I don't do detentions.
00:03:46What are you picking on me for?
00:03:48You know I could take your job away any day, right?
00:03:51My job would have no meaning if I couldn't teach you anything.
00:03:56First detention tomorrow at lunchtime.
00:04:01You don't even look old enough to teach me!
00:04:10Are you okay?
00:04:11Dude, you've been out of it since AP Literature.
00:04:14I'm gonna make Charlotte Swan fall in love with me.
00:04:19I'm gonna make Charlotte Swan fall in love with me.
00:04:21What? Are you serious? That's too far!
00:04:24Well, I thought about it.
00:04:27No matter how many teachers I piss off, so just find more.
00:04:31No questions asked.
00:04:32Are you talking about your mom?
00:04:34If I make one fall in love with me, she'll have to do something about it.
00:04:38It'll leave a record.
00:04:40Timmy, what are you trying to get out of this?
00:04:42It seems really childish.
00:04:44I just wanted to acknowledge who I really am.
00:04:47Stop acting like I'm some good kid and she's a good parent.
00:04:51She never was.
00:04:53Good luck.
00:04:59I have two detentions tomorrow.
00:05:01New teacher. No one else would be that stupid.
00:05:03You can't have detention on your record.
00:05:05It was Miss Swan.
00:05:07I heard she got her master's degree from Yale on a scholarship.
00:05:11Well, I will talk to her tomorrow.
00:05:15You're not gonna ask what I did?
00:05:16I don't care what you do, as long as your record is clean.
00:05:19You should know that by now.
00:05:31Miss Swan.
00:05:34A word, please.
00:05:38I believe we haven't met. I'm Amber Wolf, the school principal.
00:05:42I know who you are.
00:05:44My son is in your class and he must have made an impression.
00:05:47Well, yes.
00:05:48But it's not a problem, I'm sure with the correct guidance.
00:05:50He doesn't need guidance.
00:05:53You see, not all students here are the same.
00:05:56Some have to work their asses off just for a better future.
00:06:00But not my Timothy.
00:06:02His future is set in stone.
00:06:04He doesn't need any guidance from you.
00:06:08You don't need to guide him anywhere.
00:06:11Just leave him alone. Are we clear?
00:06:13I'm afraid I can't do that.
00:06:15Excuse me?
00:06:17Not all teachers are the same, Principal Wolf.
00:06:20Some can't be bought.
00:06:22I'd hate to be late.
00:06:23Have a good day.
00:06:40Timothy should have been here ten minutes ago.
00:07:07Hello?
00:07:09Who's there?
00:07:11This isn't funny.
00:07:13Fuck, I'm so late.
00:07:15The swans are gonna be upset.
00:07:21You don't have to go anymore.
00:07:22My girls and I took care of it already.
00:07:25What did you do?
00:07:31I'm not letting you out until you learned your lesson.
00:07:33Mommy, I'm scared!
00:07:34Please don't let me in here again!
00:07:37Please do it.
00:07:38You're gonna be here all night.
00:07:39No! No!
00:07:41I'm sorry!
00:07:42I didn't told you, but I'm sorry!
00:07:44I'm sorry.
00:07:45I'm sorry.
00:07:46I'm sorry.
00:07:47I'm sorry.
00:07:48I'm sorry.
00:07:49Let's just say you don't have to worry about Charlotte Swan.
00:07:51Her reaction was priceless.
00:07:55Timmy, wait!
00:08:06Timmy, wait!
00:08:07Hey.
00:08:09Jesus, are you okay?
00:08:12Whoa.
00:08:14What the swan, what happened?
00:08:16Whoa.
00:08:30What the swan, what happened?
00:08:30What the swan?
00:08:30That was a tasteless prank.
00:08:33Even for you.
00:08:34I didn't know you were scared of the dark.
00:08:36It wasn't me.
00:08:38Sure it wasn't.
00:08:39No, really, it was...
00:08:43Not important.
00:08:44But I was on my way here for detention.
00:08:47Maybe you should go to the nurse's office.
00:08:49No, no, it's fine.
00:08:52Um, just wait here.
00:08:54I'm gonna go get the lights back on.
00:09:04Can you seriously expect me to believe this wasn't you?
00:09:07I might run this school,
00:09:09but I can't control all of its students all the time.
00:09:16No more crying, though.
00:09:22I don't like to see you cry.
00:09:26I don't like to see you cry.
00:09:30Especially when it has nothing to do with me.
00:09:33Takes all the fun out of pranking you.
00:09:35Okay.
00:09:38You can use my desk.
00:09:42You have 30 minutes left.
00:09:48Tell me what you thought about the novel.
00:09:50What stood out for you?
00:09:52I didn't read it.
00:09:54I hate reading.
00:09:56Just give me a brief summary.
00:09:58Okay.
00:10:00Here's what we're gonna do.
00:10:04You are gonna write about yourself.
00:10:06Maybe something you've never told anyone before.
00:10:10Why would I do that?
00:10:11It can be therapeutic.
00:10:13Trust me.
00:10:17Wanna write about why you're scared of the dark then?
00:10:21I am the teacher here.
00:10:43Do you guys need lunch?

00:23:59Did I what?
00:24:04There's nothing.
00:24:05Let's just get to class before my favorite comes back.
00:24:09The only reason I'm letting you do this is because of my surprise.
00:24:15Surprise?
00:24:20Surprise?
00:24:21What the fuck?
00:24:23This one, I did not.
00:24:24That was not me.
00:24:26It's Jeremy's surprise.
00:24:27No, wait.
00:24:28That wasn't...
00:24:29Timmy, wasn't that awesome?
00:24:31What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:24:32Dude, chill out.
00:24:33Just one of your classic pranks.
00:24:34Didn't I tell you to not mess with her?
00:24:37I mean, wasn't it just an act to make her fall for you?
00:24:40And this new way to mess with her?
00:24:41How is this any different?
00:24:43It's different.
00:24:47Come on.
00:24:59How am I supposed to give it to her now?
00:25:09Come on, darling.
00:25:11It's just an everyday.
00:25:15Come on.
00:25:18You can do it.
00:25:19You can do it.
00:25:26We will begin by discussing the motifs of fire and ice
00:25:32representing Jane Eyres and Mr. Rochester's relationship.
00:25:52Jane Eyres and Mr. Rochester does definitely contribute to the
00:26:04in a variety of their relationship.
00:26:08I can see her fault.
00:26:11Best prank ever.
00:26:15Fuck this.
00:26:19Fuck this.
00:26:21Timothy, what are you doing?
00:26:24She's teaching.
00:26:26I can tolerate you being my mom's spy, Lindsay.
00:26:29But I won't let you hurt Charlotte.
00:26:33Do this again.
00:26:34I'll make sure you don't graduate from my school.
00:26:36Timmy.
00:26:56So how is she?
00:26:57Is she going to be okay?
00:27:06She'll be fine, Timothy.
00:27:08The fever is pretty stubborn, but I'm guessing it's just a very bad cold.
00:27:12You said she doesn't eat?
00:27:14Yeah, no, like never.
00:27:16There isn't enough nutrition in her body and she seems exhausted.
00:27:19It might be good to hook her in an IV.
00:27:28Just take care of her, okay?
00:27:29Do whatever you got to do.
00:27:30And if my mom asked you, I was never here.
00:27:34Wait, Timothy!
00:27:50Um, excuse me?
00:27:52There you are.
00:27:52He slept for hours.
00:27:54Poor thing.
00:27:56What?
00:27:57Oh, my God.
00:27:59School's almost out.
00:28:00Yeah.
00:28:01Oh, before you leave, you might want to call Timothy.
00:28:03The kid took your keys and never came back.
00:28:06My keys?
00:28:08I don't even have his number.
00:28:16What the hell did you do to my son?
00:28:21Calm down.
00:28:22She doesn't remember you.
00:28:25You need this job.
00:28:26Principal Wolf, I don't understand.
00:28:33What was that for?
00:28:35You really are quite shameless.
00:28:38Do you have any idea what's going to happen to my son's future?
00:28:42If things like this keep happening, he's going to get expelled and even I won't be able to do anything
00:28:47about it.
00:28:48Then I suggest you tell your son to stay away from me.
00:28:51Stay away from you.
00:28:53Anyone with eyes can see.
00:28:55You are clearly seducing him.
00:28:57Anyone with eyes can see it's the other way around.
00:29:00He is the one who is constantly crossing the line with me.
00:29:03And he is the one who tried to take advantage when I was unconscious.
00:29:06Take advantage of you?
00:29:09I will not stand here and let my son be slandered.
00:29:20Miss Swan is right.
00:29:22I'm the one seducing her.
00:29:27You don't know what you're talking about.
00:29:30Charlotte brainwashed you.
00:29:32That's what they do, teachers.
00:29:34Trust me, you don't know anything.
00:29:37Just because I'm a kid doesn't mean I don't know anything.
00:29:39I know she didn't do anything wrong.
00:29:42I'm sorry, Miss Swan.
00:29:44I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble.
00:29:47I'm sorry for putting your job at risk.
00:29:49I admit it started out as some childish protest against my mom
00:29:53and I'm sorry it turned out into something more, but it did.
00:29:57Timothy, people are watching.
00:29:59I know it's inappropriate and I know it's forbidden,
00:30:03but I can't help how I feel.
00:30:05I think...
00:30:08No.
00:30:09I am in love with...
00:30:11Stop, please.
00:30:13Stop talking.
00:30:15Your mother is right.
00:30:16You don't know anything.
00:30:17You're just a kid.
00:30:18It is completely normal for teenage kids to have crushes on their teachers.
00:30:23I will not hold it against you.
00:30:26It is just a crush.
00:30:27She's giving both Timothy and herself a way out.
00:30:32Smart girl.
00:30:34Timothy, go home, please.
00:30:36And leave me alone from now on.
00:30:42Wait.
00:31:01Time for the most experience for my kids.
00:31:02It's a blur to the next day.
00:31:03You do when you start making a nice video.
00:31:03I'm not parents for watching.
00:31:03I'm parents of the kids.
00:31:04I'm parents of the kids.
00:31:07I'm parents of the kids.

00:31:32i know
00:31:34before you say i'm wrong
00:31:35it's a story of a great true love
00:31:38that triumphs over the confines of societal norms
00:31:41and expectations isn't it
00:31:42i know you think i'm just a kid
00:31:44i know nothing about love
00:31:45but i know this

00:32:56the most brilliant professor at yale
00:32:58and it was love at first sight
00:33:04until i found out

00:41:51Is that Timothy Wolfe?
00:41:52He's not in uniform.
00:41:54Yo, did you see that video?
00:41:56Is him and Ms. Swan dating?
00:42:00Oh!

00:42:11Up.
00:42:12Up.
00:42:15Up.
00:42:18Where were you last night?
00:42:19Your mom called me like 10 times.
00:42:22Can I borrow your spare uniform?
00:42:24Sure, but...
00:42:25Did you sneak out?
00:42:26You should be smart with me.
00:42:28Mm-mm.
00:42:29Class is starting.
00:42:31All right.
00:42:32Let's talk about chapter 17.
00:42:38Come in.
00:42:42It's your lunch.
00:42:45Just mine?
00:42:46What about you?
00:42:52This is my lunch.
00:42:54Timothy.
00:42:58I swear he slept at hers last night.
00:43:01Charlotte Swan is a hoe.
00:43:03And I really just can't take it anymore.
00:43:05Okay.
00:43:06Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:43:07Hello?
00:43:08Hi, Principal Wolfe.
00:43:09I have some information for you on Charlotte Swan.
00:43:12Did you happen to study under a Robert Lowell, a late literature professor at Yale?
00:43:17Yes.
00:43:18Why?
00:43:19Well, it appears that Swan is Charlotte's mother's maiden name.
00:43:22She changed it a few years ago.
00:43:24Her birth name was Charlotte Lowell.
00:43:27She's the daughter of Robert Lowell.
00:43:29Other than that, everything about Miss Swan seems normal.
00:43:32I don't think you have anything to worry about.
00:43:35Hello.
00:43:43Go.
00:43:44Out!
00:43:54Get in.
00:43:55Everyone will see you.
00:43:56My mom is going to be here any second.
00:43:58Get in.
00:44:21So you don't want me to come back?
00:44:22Never again.
00:44:23You're going home.
00:44:26Justin!
00:44:29What a surprise.
00:44:31What do you want?
00:44:34Ooh.
00:44:36In a great studio.
00:44:41Charlotte, dear.
00:44:42You have outdone your father.
00:44:43Leave him alone, Mom.
00:44:44Blood.
00:44:45Well, I will.
00:44:45Soon as I get my money, I'm going to leave the shitty town.
00:44:48What money?
00:44:50What money?
00:44:52150.
00:44:53Thousand.
00:44:55That's enough to cover all my debts.
00:44:58She's lying.
00:44:59It's not that much.
00:44:59Oh, no.
00:45:00I'm not.
00:45:01Not with this.
00:45:03You give me the 150 and I'll disappear from your life for good.
00:45:09Or, the entire school sees you kissing in uniform.
00:45:15You're leaving.
00:45:18You're going home, Timothy.
00:45:20I wrote down my bank information.
00:45:23I even checked out.
00:45:25Do what you want, Mom.
00:45:26I'm done.
00:45:27I'm not scared of you anymore.
00:45:31And I'm changing my lock.
00:45:32So I guess she's losing her job.
00:45:39Just like her father.
00:45:40Just like her father.
00:45:56Yeah, is this Mercedes?
00:45:59Yeah, my name is Timothy Wolf.
00:46:00I got the G63 for my birthday.
00:46:03Yeah, is your sales manager around?
00:46:04And I'd like to sell my car.
00:46:12Morning, Miss Swan.
00:46:14Where's your car?
00:46:15It's in the shop.
00:46:17Routine repairs.
00:46:19You should have just gone to school with your mom.
00:46:22Come on.
00:46:23We're going to miss the bus.
00:46:29Wait.
00:46:30Both of you.
00:46:32Don't worry, Charlotte.
00:46:33I'm not here to get you in trouble.
00:46:37I'm actually, I'd like to invite you over for dinner this evening.
00:46:41Yeah, right.
00:46:42As if Miss Swan would want her to come.
00:46:44I'd love that.
00:46:47I'll be there.
00:46:48What?
00:46:51Great.
00:46:52I look forward to getting to know you better.
00:46:56Charlotte.
00:47:04Wait.
00:47:05Why did you say yes?
00:47:07Wait, Charlotte.
00:47:09You don't need to do this for me.
00:47:11I don't care what she thinks or what she says.
00:47:14I don't want you to care either.
00:47:22I am not doing this for you, Timothy.
00:47:24I'm doing this for me.
00:47:26What do you mean?
00:47:28It's not important.
00:47:29It's just a dinner.
00:47:30It'll be fine.
00:47:32Okay, but she's actually crazy.
00:47:33I'm a teacher, Timothy.
00:47:35Handling difficult parents is part of the job description.
00:47:39Sorry, Timothy.
00:47:40Let me use you this one time.
00:47:42Just this once.
00:47:57Can you pass the salt?
00:48:10Charlotte.
00:48:11You got a full master's scholarship to Yale.
00:48:15That is impressive.
00:48:18It's a great institution.
00:48:20I know that was your alma mater, Principal Wolf.
00:48:25It is.
00:48:26What a coincidence.
00:48:28I wonder if we had any of the same professors.
00:48:31I mean, I'm sure we did.
00:48:34In fact, my father was a professor at Yale.
00:48:37Literature.
00:48:38You studied literature, right?
00:48:40I didn't know your dad was a professor before you...
00:48:45I didn't know your dad was a professor before you...
00:48:50You told Timothy about your father.
00:48:53Oh, well, not that he was a professor.
00:48:55That he cheated and wanted to abandon his family for a younger woman.
00:49:02Mm-hmm.
00:49:04She actually knew that he had a family and a younger daughter, but I guess she didn't care.
00:49:11I see.
00:49:12I mean...
00:49:13I hear she was married herself, actually.
00:49:16Still is.
00:49:16If...
00:49:17I wonder.
00:49:18If my father hadn't died, would she be with him instead?
00:49:22What a bitch.
00:49:23Timothy, honey.
00:49:24Can you go get us another bottle of Cab, please?
00:49:28We barely touched this one.
00:49:30This one is soured.
00:49:32I'm literally underage.
00:49:34Please go.
00:49:42So when did you find out?
00:49:52Wait!
00:49:53Amber!
00:49:55Charlotte's home!
00:49:56And Helen's gonna be back any time.
00:50:01It's all part of the thrill.
00:50:04Shhh!
00:50:06You knew.
00:50:08You always knew?
00:50:10Why did you apply to St. James?
00:50:12What do you want with Timothy?
00:50:16I don't know, Amber.
00:50:17What do you think I want with him?
00:50:19It's unbelievable.
00:50:21You're just like your father.
00:50:23Pretending to be a good teacher and going around seducing students and brainwashing them.
00:50:30You seduced him.
00:50:32Just like Timothy seduced me.
00:50:35Oh, I see.
00:50:37Forgive my mistake.
00:50:39You are nothing like your father.
00:50:42You're like your pathetic, delusional mother.
00:50:48Tell me, how is she?
00:50:49Did she finally lose her mind?
00:50:54You know, I would choose your next words very carefully if I were you.
00:50:58I'm not the one with a son to lose here.
00:51:00What are you talking about?
00:51:03It doesn't matter if I seduced him or he seduced me.
00:51:06The fact is, he's in love with me.
00:51:11Truly.
00:51:13Badly.
00:51:14Deeply.
00:51:15He would do anything that I tell him to do.
00:51:18I jump, he jumps.
00:51:20I will tell him, I will tell him that you were using him this entire time.
00:51:25Sure, tell him.
00:51:26Tell him about how you cheated on his dad and ruined my family.
00:51:35Maybe I'll be one.
00:51:37Maybe I will take Timothy from you just like you took my father from me.
00:51:51What the fuck?
00:51:56What the fuck?
00:52:04Wait, Charlotte.
00:52:05Timothy.
00:52:06Timothy, get back here.
00:52:09Wait, Charlotte.
00:52:10What did my mom say to you?
00:52:12Hey, whatever it is, you can tell me, okay?
00:52:16Don't push me away.
00:52:19You are just like your father.
00:52:22Pretending to be a good teacher.
00:52:25Going around seducing and brainwashing students.
00:52:29You are just like your delusional pathetic mother.
00:52:35You want me, don't you?
00:52:37Of course I do.
00:52:45I want you.
00:52:46Now.
00:52:48What? Charlotte.
00:52:49Take me home.
00:52:50Now.
00:52:53Take me to bed.
00:53:14Wait.
00:53:16Wait.
00:53:17Wait, Charlotte. What's wrong?
00:53:17I'm gonna go.
00:53:20I'm gonna go.
00:53:27Hey, Charlotte.
00:53:28Oh, okay.
00:53:29That's fast.
00:53:31Oh.
00:53:36Charlotte.
00:53:38My Charlotte.
00:53:38What's wrong?
00:53:40Just get out.
00:53:49Charlotte, my Charlotte, what's wrong?
00:53:52Get out! Get out!
00:53:56I don't want to see you!
00:53:58Why? What did I do wrong?
00:54:00I'm sorry, whatever it is, I can fix it.
00:54:03You can't fix anything, Timothy, you're just a kid!
00:54:07You don't know anything!
00:54:10Maybe you're right.
00:54:11I really am just a kid who doesn't know shit.
00:54:14That's why I didn't know how to quit when I should've.
00:54:41Timothy?
00:54:44I am so sorry, I have to tell you something.
00:54:49I am so sorry, son.
00:54:51She knew St. James was my school, and she applied just to get close to you, okay?
00:54:59She thought she could use you against me, greenwash you, to choose her over me.
00:55:05And that is not gonna happen.
00:55:07We will not let that happen.
00:55:09I don't believe you.
00:55:11Timothy, she told me herself!
00:55:13I don't believe you.
00:55:14She didn't know.
00:55:16She didn't know I was your son, and she did, but it didn't matter.
00:55:20I don't believe you.
00:55:23I don't believe you.
00:55:23She wouldn't do this to me.
00:55:25Son, you are lying to yourself!
00:55:28Timothy!
00:55:30Timothy!
00:55:35Charlotte Swan!
00:55:40Charlotte Swan!
00:55:41Charlotte Swan, open the door.
00:55:43I know you're in there.
00:55:44Come out and talk to me.
00:55:58Don't do this to me, please.
00:56:00Don't do this to me, please.
00:56:00I'm sorry.
00:56:06Please, Charlotte, I can't take this.
00:56:08This is what's best for you, Timothy.
00:56:13Even if it means you'll hate me.
00:56:17Tell me it isn't true.
00:56:21Everything my mom said.
00:56:24You're getting close to me on purpose.
00:56:29Everything we went through together.
00:56:32It was all fake?
00:56:34No, it wasn't.
00:56:36Of course it wasn't.
00:56:39Come out and tell me it's not true.
00:56:43If you come out now, I'll believe you.
00:56:47I'll believe anything you say.
00:56:52I'm sorry, Dad.
00:57:06Charlotte Swan is hereby terminated for inappropriate behavior.
00:57:14How about that dress she was wearing?
00:57:17How'd she get in school?
00:57:20Oh, my God.
00:57:21So, Charlotte Swan's gone.
00:57:23Lindsay, stop.
00:57:26I'm just saying, I can't believe she tried to sleep with you.
00:57:29I wanted to puke when Principal Wolf sent out that news announcement.
00:57:32Are you kidding?
00:57:33Yeah.
00:57:34It was unreal.
00:57:35It was obvious from the start.
00:57:38She was into Timothy.
00:57:39She should be going to jail.
00:57:41Firing her doesn't seem like enough.
00:57:42He gets it.
00:57:43I'm just saying.
00:57:45Good morning, class.
00:57:47I know you're probably wondering who I am.
00:57:51I am Bob Calloway, your new AP literature teacher.
00:57:54And I hope to put the lids in literature.
00:57:58Hey, where are you going?
00:58:00Timmy!
00:58:02Charlotte Swan.
00:58:06Charlotte?
00:58:17Goodbye.
00:58:19Timothy.
00:58:33You didn't change your law.
00:58:35I don't have your money.
00:58:37And I probably never will.
00:58:38I was fired.
00:58:40I don't have anything to threaten me with anymore.
00:58:43Tell everyone you know.
00:58:45Send pictures to them.
00:58:46Tell them all about Dad.
00:58:47I don't care.
00:58:48I have nothing.
00:58:51What's your problem?
00:58:52What's so funny?
00:58:53You really don't know, do you?
00:58:55You actually have no idea.
00:58:57What don't I know?
00:58:59I came to say goodbye, Charlotte.
00:59:03I'm moving.
00:59:05I'm starting new.
00:59:08What about the debt?
00:59:09He really didn't tell you.
00:59:11Did he?
00:59:12Your little boyfriend, Timothy.
00:59:15He sold his car.
00:59:17And wired me a hundred and sixty-five K.
00:59:25Who knew such an ugly car would be worth so much?
00:59:29He really did love you.
00:59:33Do you know that?
00:59:34God, you really fucked that up.
00:59:37Didn't you?
00:59:39I found out his name.
00:59:41From the wire transfer with money.
00:59:44Timothy Wolf.
00:59:45Amber Wolf's son, isn't he?
00:59:48Who knew?
00:59:49I always thought of you as this big ugly scar that reminded me of your father.
00:59:56But as it turns out, you've done the one thing that I couldn't do.
01:00:03You avenged me.
01:00:05You ruined Timothy Wolf.
01:00:08I really am very proud of you.
01:00:12Have a good life.
01:00:31What are you doing?
01:00:33Hey, what are you doing here?
01:00:33Why didn't you go home?
01:00:34Why didn't you call me?
01:00:35It's almost midnight.
01:00:38My best friends.
01:00:41Did you bring my mom?
01:00:43What?
01:00:44What do you mean?
01:00:46My mom sent you.
01:00:48She's a fucking coward.
01:00:52Just like Charlotte Swan.
01:00:56Well, you don't have to worry about Charlotte Swan anymore.
01:01:00She's long gone.
01:01:02You're fucking right, she's gone.
01:01:05She left me.
01:01:07With my fucking fake friends.
01:01:12And my cheating-ass mother.
01:01:15My favorite friend you ever seen?
01:01:16Since we found out that my mom was the fucking principal.
01:01:26I loved her.
01:01:28She was the only person I've ever lived.
01:01:35The only one who loved me.
01:01:38For me.
01:01:39That's not true.
01:01:41I also-
01:01:42Also-
01:01:43What?
01:01:44You're gonna tell me your decade-long crush has nothing to do with all the shit I did for you?
01:01:50All the shit that my mom did for you?
01:01:59She's moving, you know?
01:02:01Miss Swan, I mean.
01:02:03I heard she's leaving town tonight.
01:02:05I just-
01:02:06I'm sorry, okay?
01:02:08For what's worth?
01:02:09I-I love you, dude.
01:02:11For everything.
01:02:12But also for who you are, so...
01:02:16Go get your girl, man.
01:02:33I know you think I'm just a kid.
01:02:35And I know nothing about love.
01:02:37But I know this.
01:02:38I became ready to take on the world with you.
01:02:41There you go.
01:02:41There you go.
01:02:44They're not real.
01:02:47There you go.
01:02:48Good morning, Miss Swan.
01:02:50Timothy, put me down!
01:02:52I'm Charlotte Swan.
01:02:54I'd do anything for you.
01:02:55Is that not love?
01:03:02Why aren't you dancing?
01:03:11Charlotte Swan, don't fucking go.
01:03:22I think that boy is calling you.
01:03:26Elias, drive now.
01:03:30Don't leave me, Charlotte.
01:03:41I do not care who your mother is.
01:03:46Timothy, was it?
01:03:48I don't like to see you cry.
01:03:52You're welcome.
01:03:56Good morning, Miss Swan.
01:04:02You loved me.
01:04:04Did you?
01:04:06I did.
01:04:11I did.
01:04:11I do.
01:04:21I'm so sorry, Zoe.
01:04:23It doesn't matter.
01:04:24I don't care.
01:04:25I don't care.
01:04:26I don't care.
01:04:26I don't care.
01:04:30I just want you.
01:04:35I was...
01:04:38I was...
01:04:42I was...
01:04:46I was...
01:05:25I love you, Sean, this one.
01:05:28I love you, too.
01:05:33It looks better on you.
01:05:36The uniform.
01:05:38You look 18.
01:05:43You know I can't stay here, right?
01:05:46Sure.
01:05:46I'll find you a nicer apartment.
01:05:50You know, that's not what I mean.
01:05:52No, you can stay.
01:05:53I'll talk to my mom.
01:05:55You're not going to do that.
01:06:00I already found a new job.
01:06:04Instructor at a private university on the East Coast.
01:06:08Pays less, but with my mom gone, I'll be fine.
01:06:17Don't leave me again.
01:06:19You can't leave me again.
01:06:23I have to.
01:06:26It's the only way for me to start over.
01:06:29It's the only way for this to work.
01:06:32I'll come find you.
01:06:34I'll graduate with straight A's.
01:06:36I'll apply to the East Coast.
01:06:38We'll do long distance till then.
01:06:40It's not a big deal.
01:06:44You'll have a whole future ahead of you, Timothy.
01:06:47You'll grow up and forget me.
01:07:10You're going to be fine.
01:07:12Keep in touch, okay?
01:07:14Don't forget to eat.
01:07:15Lock your door.
01:07:18Please don't forget about me.
01:07:28I'll call every day.
01:07:30I'll come visit every break-up.
01:07:32I know you won't forget.
01:07:34And even if you do, it'll be okay.
01:07:42Promise you won't forgive me.
01:07:46I promise.
01:07:59That will be all for today.
01:08:01We'll have our midterm exam on Monday.
01:08:34Excuse me.
01:08:37Is there a smoking area on campus?
01:08:42I'm sorry.
01:08:43I'm afraid this entire campus is smoke-free.
01:08:53Well, that's too bad.
01:08:56It's a good thing I quit smoking three years ago when I met this super hot teacher.
01:09:16You're working too hard.
01:09:18Let me help.
01:09:20You want to grade upper division papers as a sophomore?
01:09:24Yeah, it's just Shakespeare, right?
01:09:28I can do Shakespeare.
01:09:30I am the genius who got into Princeton, so I think I'll manage.
01:09:36Wait a minute.
01:09:38You know how the Shakespeare paper do next week, don't you?
01:09:42Hey.
01:09:44Plagiarism is illegal.
01:09:45Get back here.
01:09:46Give them to me.
01:09:53Bad dog.
01:10:02What's this?
01:10:03Feeling nostalgic?
01:10:05What's this?
01:10:06Feeling nostalgic?
01:10:08What is love anymore?
01:10:11What's this?
01:10:17I don't care anymore.
01:10:17Timothy.
01:10:18I know.
01:10:21I'm young.
01:10:23Practically a kid.
01:10:25I have my whole future ahead of me.
01:10:27I know all that.
01:10:29Because you're a part of that future now.
01:10:32You're the one who created it for me, Miss Swan.
01:10:35Don't call me that.
01:10:40Charlotte Swan.
01:10:41The love of my life.
01:10:46Will you marry me?
01:10:51Yes.
01:10:53Yes.
01:10:55And you nailed it to the floor.
01:10:59Because for some odd reason, I don't believe in this one thing I adore.
01:11:08What is love anymore?
01:11:19What is love anymore?
01:11:22What is love anymore?
01:11:22Anymore
