1
00:04:00,806 --> 00:04:02,239
Hey, Mr. McAllister.
2
00:04:02,307 --> 00:04:04,833
Not wasting any time,
are you, Tracy?
3
00:04:04,911 --> 00:04:08,746
You know what they say
about the early bird.
4
00:04:08,816 --> 00:04:10,250
Yeah, I do.
5
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:13,879
Good luck there, Tracy.
6
00:04:13,956 --> 00:04:16,255
Thanks, Mr. M.
I'll see you in class.
7
00:04:16,326 --> 00:04:17,759
Yup, mm-hmm.
8
00:04:19,330 --> 00:04:20,991
Tracy: None of this
would've happened
9
00:04:21,065 --> 00:04:23,762
if Mr. McAllister hadn't
meddled the way he did.
10
00:04:23,836 --> 00:04:26,271
He should've just accepted
things as they are,
11
00:04:26,339 --> 00:04:28,739
instead of trying
to interfere with destiny.
12
00:04:28,809 --> 00:04:31,779
You see, you can't
interfere with destiny.
13
00:04:31,846 --> 00:04:33,280
That's why it's destiny.
14
00:04:33,348 --> 00:04:35,282
And if you try to interfere,
15
00:04:35,350 --> 00:04:37,785
the same thing's
just gonna happen anyway,
16
00:04:37,854 --> 00:04:39,288
and you'll just suffer.
17
00:04:41,859 --> 00:04:44,294
Jim: It's hard to remember
how the whole thing started,
18
00:04:44,362 --> 00:04:45,796
the whole election mess.
19
00:04:45,865 --> 00:04:49,165
What I do remember
is that I loved my job.
20
00:04:49,236 --> 00:04:50,760
I was a teacher,
21
00:04:50,838 --> 00:04:51,862
an educator,
22
00:04:51,939 --> 00:04:54,738
and I couldn't imagine
doing anything else.
23
00:04:54,809 --> 00:04:56,505
Boy: Mr. McAllister.
24
00:04:56,579 --> 00:04:58,206
Mr. M!
25
00:04:58,280 --> 00:05:00,603
Quit daydreaming.
Get back to work.
26
00:05:00,737 --> 00:05:04,299
Jim: The students knew
it wasn't just a job for me.
27
00:05:04,375 --> 00:05:05,707
I got involved.
28
00:05:05,777 --> 00:05:07,711
Put down the cards, boys!
29
00:05:07,779 --> 00:05:09,213
This game is over!
30
00:05:09,282 --> 00:05:10,647
Jim: And I cared.
31
00:05:10,716 --> 00:05:12,708
Come on, Wolverines!
32
00:05:12,786 --> 00:05:13,718
Defense! Let's go!
33
00:05:13,787 --> 00:05:15,722
Jim: And I think
I made a difference.
34
00:05:15,790 --> 00:05:17,724
I knew I touched
the students' lives
35
00:05:17,792 --> 00:05:20,227
during their difficult
young adult years.
36
00:05:20,296 --> 00:05:24,256
And I took that
responsibility seriously.
37
00:05:24,334 --> 00:05:27,736
In the 12 years
I taught U.S. history,
38
00:05:27,805 --> 00:05:30,240
civics, and current events
at Carver,
39
00:05:30,309 --> 00:05:33,245
I was voted
Teacher of the Year 3 times.
40
00:05:33,313 --> 00:05:35,077
A school record.
41
00:05:35,149 --> 00:05:38,244
Teaching was all
I'd ever wanted to do.
42
00:05:40,255 --> 00:05:43,748
Standing in front of
a roomful of young people,
43
00:05:43,826 --> 00:05:46,261
trying to get them excited
about the world,
44
00:05:46,330 --> 00:05:48,265
trying to make them think,
45
00:05:48,333 --> 00:05:51,770
preparing them for the tough
moral and ethical decisions
46
00:05:51,837 --> 00:05:53,771
that they'd face as adults,
47
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,705
that's how I wanted
to spend my life.
48
00:05:56,776 --> 00:05:58,711
So is this
a moral situation
49
00:05:58,779 --> 00:06:00,940
or an ethical situation?
50
00:06:01,015 --> 00:06:03,951
What's the difference between
morals and ethics anyway?
51
00:06:04,019 --> 00:06:05,214
Anybody?
52
00:06:06,789 --> 00:06:08,223
Derek.
53
00:06:08,292 --> 00:06:10,226
Yeah. Ethics is
like when you do
54
00:06:10,294 --> 00:06:12,490
what society tells you
is right to do.
55
00:06:12,564 --> 00:06:13,724
And morals...
56
00:06:16,302 --> 00:06:18,237
Yeah, yeah,
you're on the right track.
57
00:06:18,305 --> 00:06:19,465
Can anybody help him out?
58
00:06:22,176 --> 00:06:23,165
Michelle.
59
00:06:23,244 --> 00:06:25,736
Morals are like...
lessons.
60
00:06:25,814 --> 00:06:27,908
You know, like
the moral of a story.
61
00:06:27,984 --> 00:06:31,751
It's what you learn
from a story or a fable.
62
00:06:31,822 --> 00:06:34,256
Or a life experience. Good.
63
00:06:34,326 --> 00:06:35,588
And ethics?
64
00:06:35,661 --> 00:06:39,257
Um, ethics is how
you use the morals
65
00:06:39,332 --> 00:06:41,358
that you learn
from the story?
66
00:06:41,435 --> 00:06:44,872
Yeah, OK, but I think we're
missing something key here.
67
00:06:44,939 --> 00:06:46,770
What are we missing?
68
00:06:54,752 --> 00:06:55,616
Tracy.
69
00:06:55,687 --> 00:06:57,918
Ethics are rules of conduct...
70
00:06:58,991 --> 00:07:00,390
Jim: Tracy Flick.
71
00:07:00,459 --> 00:07:01,392
Tracy Flick.
72
00:07:01,461 --> 00:07:03,224
I'd seen a lot of
ambitious students
73
00:07:03,296 --> 00:07:04,730
come and go over the years,
74
00:07:04,799 --> 00:07:08,258
but Tracy Flick,
she was a special case.
75
00:07:09,438 --> 00:07:11,236
Tracy: Some people say
I'm an overachiever,
76
00:07:11,307 --> 00:07:12,740
but I think
they're just jealous.
77
00:07:12,809 --> 00:07:14,744
My mom always tells me
I'm different.
78
00:07:14,812 --> 00:07:16,245
You know, special.
79
00:07:16,313 --> 00:07:17,747
And if you look
at all the things
80
00:07:17,816 --> 00:07:18,748
I've accomplished so far,
81
00:07:18,817 --> 00:07:21,252
I think you'd have to agree.
82
00:07:27,862 --> 00:07:30,262
Here I am as Hodel in
Fiddler On The Roof.
83
00:07:30,331 --> 00:07:33,267
# Matchmaker, matchmaker,
I'll bring the veil #
84
00:07:33,335 --> 00:07:34,928
#You bring the groom #
85
00:07:35,004 --> 00:07:38,771
Tracy: And here I am on KCHS,
our student-run TV station.
86
00:07:38,843 --> 00:07:40,778
The littering must stop.
87
00:07:40,846 --> 00:07:42,575
Tracy Flick reporting.
88
00:07:42,647 --> 00:07:44,775
Tracy:
But it was in the S.G.A.,
89
00:07:44,851 --> 00:07:46,284
the Student Government
Association,
90
00:07:46,352 --> 00:07:47,786
where I made my biggest mark.
91
00:07:47,855 --> 00:07:49,789
I never missed a single meeting.
92
00:07:49,857 --> 00:07:51,792
And I volunteered
for every committee,
93
00:07:51,860 --> 00:07:53,795
as long as I could lead it.
94
00:07:53,863 --> 00:07:54,955
I agree with Ashley!
95
00:07:55,030 --> 00:07:56,725
I think we should rent
the barrels ahead of time
96
00:07:56,799 --> 00:07:58,791
because what happened
last time was a travesty.
97
00:07:58,869 --> 00:08:00,029
It was ridiculous,
98
00:08:00,104 --> 00:08:01,731
and I think it really
reflected poorly on all of us.
99
00:08:01,806 --> 00:08:04,241
Jim: Now Tracy Flick
was poised to win
100
00:08:04,309 --> 00:08:06,778
the presidency
of the student body.
101
00:08:06,846 --> 00:08:09,747
And so far,
she was running unopposed.
102
00:08:09,816 --> 00:08:12,752
Determined by a culture
at a certain time in history.
103
00:08:13,922 --> 00:08:15,787
Jim: Oh, there's
one more thing about Tracy
104
00:08:15,857 --> 00:08:17,485
I think you should know.
105
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,657
Her pussy gets so wet
you can't believe it.
106
00:08:21,732 --> 00:08:23,667
[Softly]
Don't tell me that.
107
00:08:23,735 --> 00:08:25,259
Don't tell me that.
I don't want to know that.
108
00:08:25,336 --> 00:08:27,271
Jim: A few months
before the election,
109
00:08:27,339 --> 00:08:29,273
she'd gotten herself
in a little trouble
110
00:08:29,341 --> 00:08:32,800
with my best friend
Dave Novotny.
111
00:08:32,879 --> 00:08:34,780
# Foxy #
112
00:08:34,849 --> 00:08:37,284
Jim: Dave came to Carver
the year after I did,
113
00:08:37,352 --> 00:08:39,286
and we hit it off right away.
114
00:08:39,354 --> 00:08:41,289
Dave was one of those guys
who taught
115
00:08:41,357 --> 00:08:42,790
because they never wanted
to leave high school
116
00:08:42,859 --> 00:08:44,293
in the first place.
117
00:08:44,361 --> 00:08:47,297
But basically, he was a good guy.
118
00:08:47,365 --> 00:08:49,800
Our wives became best friends, too.
119
00:08:49,869 --> 00:08:52,303
And when Dave and Linda's
son Darryl was born,
120
00:08:52,371 --> 00:08:54,738
they asked us to be
his godparents.
121
00:08:56,511 --> 00:08:58,945
Tracy: You probably think the worst,
122
00:08:59,013 --> 00:09:01,744
that Mr. Novotny was
taking horrible advantage
123
00:09:01,817 --> 00:09:03,251
of one of his students.
124
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,754
But it wasn't like that at all.
125
00:09:05,822 --> 00:09:08,257
Our relationship was
based on mutual respect
126
00:09:08,326 --> 00:09:09,384
and admiration.
127
00:09:09,461 --> 00:09:12,259
I mean, during my
sophomore year in geometry,
128
00:09:12,331 --> 00:09:14,266
it was strictly
professional between us.
129
00:09:14,334 --> 00:09:16,235
I mean, nothing.
130
00:09:16,303 --> 00:09:17,770
It wasn't until junior year
131
00:09:17,838 --> 00:09:19,773
when we worked together
on the yearbook
132
00:09:19,841 --> 00:09:21,775
that things got kind of serious.
133
00:09:21,843 --> 00:09:23,778
One night he took
us editors out to celebrate
134
00:09:23,846 --> 00:09:25,279
after a deadline.
135
00:09:25,348 --> 00:09:27,783
Eventually, Dave and I
were left alone,
136
00:09:27,851 --> 00:09:29,285
and we got to talking.
137
00:09:29,354 --> 00:09:31,288
Not like teacher and student,
138
00:09:31,356 --> 00:09:32,790
but like 2 adults.
139
00:09:32,858 --> 00:09:34,291
You know, Tracy,
140
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,295
I notice that
you don't seem to have
141
00:09:36,363 --> 00:09:38,297
any close friends at Carver.
142
00:09:38,365 --> 00:09:40,300
You seem to be kind of a loner.
143
00:09:40,368 --> 00:09:43,133
No, I'm not.
I'm just real busy.
144
00:09:43,205 --> 00:09:45,800
Oh, no. I know, I know
it's not by choice.
145
00:09:45,875 --> 00:09:48,309
I just mean that, that, well...
146
00:09:48,378 --> 00:09:50,813
being the kind of person you are,
147
00:09:50,881 --> 00:09:52,816
it must be really difficult for you
148
00:09:52,884 --> 00:09:54,647
to find somebody
you could talk to.
149
00:09:54,719 --> 00:09:56,312
What do you mean?
150
00:09:56,389 --> 00:09:58,789
What kind of person am I?
151
00:10:00,894 --> 00:10:04,831
Tracy, you know, I've been
watching you for going on...
152
00:10:04,899 --> 00:10:06,333
3 years now,
153
00:10:06,402 --> 00:10:09,531
and I think you are
one of the most talented,
154
00:10:09,606 --> 00:10:12,770
hard-working,
sensitive, attractive,
155
00:10:12,843 --> 00:10:14,834
brilliant students l...
156
00:10:14,912 --> 00:10:15,845
No.
157
00:10:17,249 --> 00:10:19,616
Human beings I have ever met.
158
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:21,909
Thank you.
159
00:10:21,988 --> 00:10:24,856
And I know that
sometimes people like you
160
00:10:24,925 --> 00:10:28,863
have to pay a price
for their greatness.
161
00:10:28,931 --> 00:10:31,525
And that price is loneliness.
162
00:10:31,601 --> 00:10:35,038
I don't know.
maybe I'm wrong, but...
163
00:10:35,105 --> 00:10:39,840
it just seems to me like
you might need a friend.
164
00:10:43,450 --> 00:10:45,214
Tracy: Since I grew up
without a dad,
165
00:10:45,286 --> 00:10:46,719
you might assume, psychologically,
166
00:10:46,787 --> 00:10:48,881
I was looking
for a father figure.
167
00:10:48,957 --> 00:10:51,391
But that had nothing
to do with it at all.
168
00:10:51,460 --> 00:10:53,395
It was just that
Dave was so strong,
169
00:10:53,463 --> 00:10:56,433
and he made me feel
so safe and protected.
170
00:10:56,500 --> 00:11:00,335
It was the first time
somebody ever saw the real me,
171
00:11:00,405 --> 00:11:02,340
the me that nobody else knows.
172
00:11:02,408 --> 00:11:05,469
OK, here. Get down. Get down.
173
00:11:14,891 --> 00:11:16,825
#You're once #
174
00:11:16,893 --> 00:11:17,825
#Twice #
175
00:11:19,897 --> 00:11:24,335
#Three times a lady #
176
00:11:25,905 --> 00:11:31,846
#And I love you #
177
00:11:33,415 --> 00:11:35,850
#Yes, you're once #
178
00:11:35,918 --> 00:11:37,351
#Twice #
179
00:11:39,423 --> 00:11:41,358
#Three times a lady #
180

on my relationship
186
00:12:02,886 --> 00:12:04,319
with Mr. Novotny,
187
00:12:04,389 --> 00:12:07,324
what I miss most is our talks.
188

You did it in your house?

In your own house?

OK, I know it seems crazy, but...

Jim, what I'm trying
to tell you is that...

00:12:19,908 --> 00:12:21,342
Tracy and I...
193
00:12:21,411 --> 00:12:23,845

- Yeah.

It's serious.

She inspires me in ways
that Linda never has.
198
00:12:33,549 --> 00:12:35,643
She even wants to read my novel.
199
00:12:35,719 --> 00:12:37,813
But you haven't
written your novel.
200
00:12:37,889 --> 00:12:39,322
That's the whole point!

right here!

to get it out there.

so she can read it.

What you're doing is
really, really wrong,

is that I'm an only child,

No. That's fine.

the world's number one soft drink,
317
00:17:25,429 --> 00:17:27,363
and they spend
more money than anybody
318
00:17:27,431 --> 00:17:28,490
on advertising.
319
00:17:28,567 --> 00:17:31,867
I guess that's how come
they stay number one.
320
00:17:31,938 --> 00:17:33,371
Yeah.
321
00:17:33,439 --> 00:17:35,874
OK. Well, good luck there, Tracy.

a lot of time together,

like that time to be...

00:17:46,957 --> 00:17:50,121
harmonious and productive.
327
00:17:50,194 --> 00:17:51,924
Wouldn't you?
328
00:17:52,998 --> 00:17:53,930
Sure.
329
00:17:56,469 --> 00:17:57,493
OK.
330
00:17:57,571 --> 00:17:59,368
That's what I thought.
I was just checking.
331
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,807
Yeah. Good luck there, Tracy.
332
00:18:01,877 --> 00:18:03,674
OK.

for what happened with Dave.
334
00:18:11,423 --> 00:18:12,754
How could I?
335
00:18:12,824 --> 00:18:15,157
Dave was an adult,
more than twice her age.
336
00:18:15,227 --> 00:18:18,356
Sure, she got on my nerves
once in a while,
337
00:18:18,432 --> 00:18:21,368
but I admired Tracy.
I really did.
338
00:18:22,971 --> 00:18:27,102
Thank God for Diane.
She was my best friend.
339
00:18:27,176 --> 00:18:29,372
My source of love and strength.
340
00:18:29,446 --> 00:18:31,381
Oh, sure, we'd had
our share of bumpy times,
341
00:18:31,449 --> 00:18:34,010
but we'd always seen them through.
342
00:18:34,086 --> 00:18:37,887
After 9 years of marriage,
we were closer than ever.
343
00:18:39,459 --> 00:18:40,484
Anything wrong?
344
00:18:41,962 --> 00:18:43,395
No. No.
345
00:18:43,464 --> 00:18:45,490
Just, you know, school.

00:18:53,410 --> 00:18:56,847
we're gonna be spending
a lot of time together.
348
00:18:56,914 --> 00:19:00,852
Lots and lots and lots of time.

Close and special.
352

354
00:19:45,940 --> 00:19:47,875
Man: What are you doing here
in the boys' locker room?
355
00:19:47,943 --> 00:19:49,433
I've come to see
the star quarterback
356
00:19:49,511 --> 00:19:50,877
before the big game.
357
00:19:50,947 --> 00:19:53,382
But what if Coach Henderson walks in?
358
00:19:53,451 --> 00:19:56,079
Oh, that's OK.
I took care of him.
359
00:19:56,153 --> 00:19:57,883

I'm a lesbian or anything.

00:27:20,026 --> 00:27:21,459
I'm attracted to the person.
545
00:27:21,528 --> 00:27:24,464
It's just that all the people
I've ever been attracted to

We had so much fun together,

I wonder what that
would feel like.

I don't know why,
594
00:29:49,587 --> 00:29:52,523

she wanted to hurt me.

First, Lisa has a big fight
with my sister,

and the next thing you know,
she's my girlfriend.
602
00:30:17,458 --> 00:30:20,052
Since Lisa knew all about
public relations and stuff,
603
00:30:20,127 --> 00:30:22,596
she offered to help me
with my campaign.

00:35:40,688 --> 00:35:41,620
Oh, God.
725
00:35:41,689 --> 00:35:43,122
Just like that.

Just like that.
733
00:35:55,273 --> 00:35:58,038
Do it, Jim. Fill me up.

740
00:36:13,664 --> 00:36:15,097
Jim: So like I was saying,
741
00:36:15,165 --> 00:36:17,134
things were going
pretty well in my life.
742
00:36:17,269 --> 00:36:19,601
That is, until things
started going all haywire
743
00:36:19,671 --> 00:36:21,105
with that damn election.
744
00:36:21,173 --> 00:36:24,109
Boy, Haltingly:
I love Carver High.
745
00:36:24,177 --> 00:36:27,614
And I will be a dedicated
vice president.
746
00:36:27,682 --> 00:36:31,119
A vote forJerry Slavin is
a vote for good government.
747
00:36:31,186 --> 00:36:35,123
And even if I can't really
stand up for you, I will.
748
00:36:35,191 --> 00:36:36,625
[Laughter]
749
00:36:36,694 --> 00:36:37,820
Thank you.
750
00:36:37,895 --> 00:36:40,126
[Applause]
751
00:36:43,202 --> 00:36:44,635
Thank you, Jerry.
752
00:36:44,704 --> 00:36:46,137
Thank you and good luck.
753
00:36:46,205 --> 00:36:49,573
Again, Jerry is running
unopposed for vice president.
754
00:36:49,644 --> 00:36:53,137
So, we'll move on now
to the presidential race
755
00:36:53,215 --> 00:36:54,648
with 3 candidates running.
756
00:36:54,717 --> 00:36:57,084
The first,
in alphabetical order,
757
00:36:57,154 --> 00:36:59,088
is Tracy Flick.
758
00:36:59,156 --> 00:37:00,089
Tracy?
759
00:37:07,267 --> 00:37:10,601
Poet Henry David Thoreau
once wrote,
760
00:37:10,671 --> 00:37:12,936
"I cannot make my days longer,
761
00:37:13,008 --> 00:37:15,033
so I strive to make them better."
762
00:37:15,110 --> 00:37:17,602
With this election,
we here at Carver
763
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,113
also have an opportunity
764
00:37:19,182 --> 00:37:21,242
to make our
high school days better.
765
00:37:21,318 --> 00:37:24,618
During this campaign,
I've spoken with many of you
766
00:37:24,689 --> 00:37:26,123
about your many concerns.
767
00:37:26,192 --> 00:37:28,626
I spoke with Eliza Ramirez,
768
00:37:28,694 --> 00:37:31,129
a freshman who said
she feels alienated
769
00:37:31,198 --> 00:37:32,723
from her own home room.
770
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,631
I spoke with sophomore Reggie Banks
771
00:37:34,702 --> 00:37:37,137
who said his mother works
in the cafeteria
772
00:37:37,206 --> 00:37:39,106
and can't afford to buy him
enough spiral notebooks
773
00:37:39,175 --> 00:37:40,107
for his classes.
774
00:37:40,176 --> 00:37:41,143
Eat me!
775
00:37:41,211 --> 00:37:42,679
Eat me raw!

777
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,153
All right, now.
778
00:37:49,222 --> 00:37:51,656
Hey, if you can't be adults
779
00:37:51,724 --> 00:37:54,660
and give these candidates
the courtesy they deserve,
780
00:37:54,728 --> 00:37:57,596
then you don't deserve to be
called adults but children
781
00:37:57,665 --> 00:37:59,099
because that's what children are,
782
00:37:59,168 --> 00:38:01,102
and you'll be treated like children.
783
00:38:01,170 --> 00:38:03,605
So let's all listen up, huh?
784
00:38:07,678 --> 00:38:09,613
Tracy: I care about Carver,
785
00:38:09,681 --> 00:38:11,615
and I care about each
and every one of you.
786
00:38:11,683 --> 00:38:14,209
And together, we can all
make a difference.
787
00:38:14,287 --> 00:38:17,621
When you cast your vote
for Tracy Flick next week,
788
00:38:17,691 --> 00:38:20,126
you won't just be voting for me.
789
00:38:20,195 --> 00:38:22,289
You'll be voting for yourself
790
00:38:22,365 --> 00:38:25,129
and for every other student
here at Carver.
791
00:38:25,201 --> 00:38:27,636
Our days might not be any longer,
792
00:38:27,704 --> 00:38:29,798
but they can sure be better.
793
00:38:29,874 --> 00:38:30,841
Thank you.

for student body president
796
00:38:41,722 --> 00:38:43,156
is Paul Metzler.
797
00:38:43,225 --> 00:38:44,157

"As many of you know,

I broke my leg pretty bad this year,
805
00:39:19,205 --> 00:39:21,139
and the experience
has made me reevaluate
806
00:39:21,207 --> 00:39:22,641
what I want to do with my life,
807
00:39:22,710 --> 00:39:24,143
and that is help people.
808
00:39:24,211 --> 00:39:25,645
When you think about it,
809
00:39:25,714 --> 00:39:27,272
a school is more than a school.
810
00:39:27,349 --> 00:39:29,147
It's our second home,
where we spend all our time

and grow as individuals
in the community.

everything it could be?

its true potential.

That's why I'm running for president.

I know what it is
to fight hard and win,
816
00:39:40,733 --> 00:39:42,668
like when we almost went
to State last fall
817
00:39:42,736 --> 00:39:45,672
and I threw the fourth quarter
pass against Westside
818

for the touchdown that
won the game by 3 points.
819

I won't let you down
like I didn't then,

and I promise we can all score
a winning touchdown together.
821

for president.

the same pathetic promises

on their transcripts

just suspend her.

Tammy, there's just
one other thing.

00:44:47,430 --> 00:44:49,797
You know all
this election stuff,

'cause everybody's
saying it's really weird
910

that you're running against me
911

and everything,
and it is kind of weird.
912
00:44:54,672 --> 00:44:57,107
You haven't really told me
why you're doing it
913
00:44:57,176 --> 00:44:58,701
and you didn't
tell me in advance,

at the speeches
922
00:45:21,140 --> 00:45:23,336
was an unconscionable travesty.

That little bitch Tammy Metzler
924

the posters were torn down?
1039

have been anybody.

elements here at Carver,

Kevin Speck and those burnouts.

Or what about Tammy Metzler?
1054

I mean, her whole thing
1055
00:55:07,756 --> 00:55:10,021

a very intelligent girl.

You have a lot of
admirable qualities.
1058
00:55:17,769 --> 00:55:19,670
But one day maybe you'll learn
1059
00:55:19,739 --> 00:55:20,797
that being smart
1060
00:55:20,874 --> 00:55:23,503
and doing whatever you
need to do to get ahead
1061
00:55:23,577 --> 00:55:25,169
and, yes, stepping
on other people
1062
00:55:25,247 --> 00:55:26,544
to get there,
1063
00:55:26,615 --> 00:55:30,347
well, there's a whole lot
more to life than that.
1064
00:55:30,419 --> 00:55:33,048
And, in the end, you're
only cheating yourself.
1065
00:55:34,258 --> 00:55:36,454
Why are you lecturing me?
1066
00:55:36,528 --> 00:55:41,125
This isn't the time or
the place to get into it.
1067
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,499
But there is,
for just one example,
1068
00:55:43,570 --> 00:55:45,562
a certain former colleague of mine
1069
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:49,338
who made a very big mistake,
a life mistake.
1070
00:55:49,411 --> 00:55:50,844
Now, I think
the lesson here is that,
1071
00:55:50,913 --> 00:55:54,645
old or young,
we all make mistakes.
1072
00:55:54,717 --> 00:55:56,583
And we have to learn
that our actions,
1073
00:55:56,654 --> 00:56:01,753
all of them, can carry
serious consequences.
1074
00:56:01,827 --> 00:56:05,093
Mm-hmm. I don't know
what you're referring to,
1075
00:56:05,165 --> 00:56:07,861
but maybe if certain
older, wiser people
1076
00:56:07,935 --> 00:56:09,927
hadn't acted like such little babies
1077
00:56:10,004 --> 00:56:11,164
and gotten so mushy,
1078
00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:13,265
then everything would be OK.
1079
00:56:13,342 --> 00:56:15,834
I agree, and I also think

about the election tomorrow
1255
01:08:18,469 --> 01:08:20,528
and I guess
I want to win and all,
1256
01:08:20,605 --> 01:08:22,870
but I know that's
totally up to You.
1257
01:08:22,942 --> 01:08:24,843
You'll decide
who the best person is
1258
01:08:24,911 --> 01:08:28,143
and I'll accept it,
and forgive me for my sins,
1259
01:08:28,216 --> 01:08:31,709
whatever they may be. Amen.
1260
01:08:37,628 --> 01:08:39,960
Jim: Linda never
came home that night.
1261
01:08:40,030 --> 01:08:42,864
I know, because
I spent 10 hours
1262
01:08:42,934 --> 01:08:45,199
waiting outside her house.
1263
01:08:45,271 --> 01:08:48,207

1264
01:09:00,123 --> 01:09:01,921
Oh, God.
1265
01:09:33,466 --> 01:09:34,957
Tracy: On election day,
1266
01:09:35,036 --> 01:09:36,800
my mom and I got up really early,
1267
01:09:36,872 --> 01:09:40,570
and together we
customized 480 cupcakes.
1268
01:09:46,483 --> 01:09:48,384
Good morning, Mr. M.
1269
01:09:52,124 --> 01:09:54,889
Looks like you could
use a cupcake.
1270
01:10:03,005 --> 01:10:04,667
Hey, what happened to your eye?
1271
01:10:09,513 --> 01:10:10,947
Are you OK?
1272
01:10:11,049 --> 01:10:12,038
"Mr. McAllister,
1273
01:10:13,372 --> 01:10:15,602
Mr. McAllister, somebody
tore down my posters.
1274
01:10:15,674 --> 01:10:17,939
It's not fair, it's not fair.
1275
01:10:18,011 --> 01:10:20,981
Can I have an 'A'?
Can I have a recommendation?
1276
01:10:21,048 --> 01:10:23,176
Can I, can I?"
1277
01:10:23,251 --> 01:10:25,242
Fuck them.

[Ring]
1279
01:10:46,315 --> 01:10:47,907
Linda On Machine:
Hi. You've reached the Novotnys.
1280
01:10:47,983 --> 01:10:49,975
We're not around, but we'll
call you back real soon.
1281
01:10:50,053 --> 01:10:52,351
Have a nice day.
[Beep]
1282
01:10:52,422 --> 01:10:56,121
Why did you do that?
I trusted you completely.
1283
01:10:56,194 --> 01:10:58,185
And you ruined my life,
do you know that?
1284
01:10:58,263 --> 01:11:01,233
Do you realize that?
Huh? Do you?
1285
01:11:01,300 --> 01:11:03,667
You ruined Diane's life...
You ruined my life,
1286
01:11:03,737 --> 01:11:06,468
is that what you wanted?
1287
01:11:06,541 --> 01:11:10,740
I'm sorry... I'm sorry,
I'm just... I'm going nuts here,
1288
01:11:10,813 --> 01:11:14,113
and I really think we should talk.
1289
01:11:14,184 --> 01:11:17,712
It's Jim. I love you.

Attention, everyone.
1291
01:11:26,066 --> 01:11:27,533
We have an important announcement
1292
01:11:27,601 --> 01:11:30,901
from our principal,
Dr. Hendricks.

[Coughs]
1294
01:11:33,209 --> 01:11:35,541
Good morning, students.
1295
01:11:35,612 --> 01:11:38,376
It, uh, behooves me to inform you
1296
01:11:38,448 --> 01:11:40,542
of an important change
in today's election.
1297
01:11:40,618 --> 01:11:42,951
Effective this morning
sophomore Tammy Metzler
1298
01:11:43,022 --> 01:11:44,887
has been... Metzler has been
1299
01:11:44,957 --> 01:11:47,483
determined ineligible,
I repeat, ineligible
1300
01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:49,153
for S.G.A. president.
1301
01:11:49,230 --> 01:11:50,993
All other candidates
are eligible.
1302
01:11:51,065 --> 01:11:54,263
You may, uh,
vote for any of those,
1303
01:11:54,336 --> 01:11:56,430
but not Tammy Metzler.
1304
01:11:57,807 --> 01:11:59,833
Tracy: When the time
came to cast our votes,
1305
01:11:59,910 --> 01:12:02,209
I stood in line
just like everyone else.
1306
01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:03,212
Hi, Tracy.
1307
01:12:03,281 --> 01:12:05,146
Tracy Enid Flick.
1308
01:12:05,216 --> 01:12:06,241

01:12:07,420 --> 01:12:09,218
Thank you.

Ready, Phil?
1311
01:12:22,239 --> 01:12:23,501
Phil: Yeah, ready.
1312
01:12:31,584 --> 01:12:33,177
Thanks, Phil.
1313
01:12:37,292 --> 01:12:39,056
Oh, hey, Tracy.
1314
01:12:39,128 --> 01:12:40,356
Hi, Paul.
1315
01:12:40,429 --> 01:12:42,421
Isn't this exciting?
1316
01:12:42,499 --> 01:12:43,591
Mm-hmm.
1317
01:12:43,667 --> 01:12:46,159
Well, good luck.
1318
01:12:46,237 --> 01:12:48,706
Thanks, Paul. You, too.

01:12:48,774 --> 01:12:51,174
Oh, thanks!

Paul: It's so weird.
1321
01:12:58,954 --> 01:13:01,354
Do people always just
vote for themselves?
1322
01:13:01,423 --> 01:13:04,450
'Cause looking at
my own name on the ballot
1323
01:13:04,527 --> 01:13:06,962
I just... I don't know,
1324
01:13:07,031 --> 01:13:10,229
I just felt like it's not right
to vote for yourself.

[Door Opens]
1326
01:13:28,492 --> 01:13:29,686
Ok, Mr. M.
1327
01:13:30,928 --> 01:13:33,955
All right. So...
1328
01:13:34,032 --> 01:13:35,466
let's start counting.
1329
01:13:35,535 --> 01:13:38,994
OK, well, as the election
committee chairman,
1330
01:13:39,073 --> 01:13:40,131
I'll do the first count.
1331
01:13:40,207 --> 01:13:41,800
And then you can do
the second count,
1332
01:13:41,876 --> 01:13:43,343
you know, for
the 2 independent counts.
1333
01:13:43,411 --> 01:13:46,006
Fine. So do your count.
1334
01:13:46,082 --> 01:13:48,483
Start with president,
and I'll be right back.
1335
01:13:48,552 --> 01:13:51,545
You have the key, Mr. McAllister.
1336
01:13:54,660 --> 01:13:57,094
Right.
1337
01:14:09,745 --> 01:14:12,374
Are you OK, Mr. McAllister?
1338
01:14:12,449 --> 01:14:14,645
Yeah. What happened to your eye?
1339
01:14:14,719 --> 01:14:17,416
I'm fine!
It's just a bee sting.
1340
01:14:17,490 --> 01:14:19,890
A simple little
everyday bee sting.
1341
01:14:19,959 --> 01:14:22,929
Some people can get stung,
it's no big deal.
1342
01:14:22,996 --> 01:14:25,022
Me... I swell up.
1343
01:14:25,099 --> 01:14:27,694
There's not much time left
until eighth period.
1344
01:14:27,769 --> 01:14:30,329
I have other things
going on, too, you know.
1345
01:14:30,405 --> 01:14:34,571
Yeah. OK. We know.
1346
01:14:34,645 --> 01:14:36,772

Don't say that.
You know it's not true.
1362
01:15:07,988 --> 01:15:10,149
It's the only true thing
I know anymore.

01:15:10,225 --> 01:15:13,251
We made a mistake.
Let's not make it worse.

What have you got?
1372
01:15:43,033 --> 01:15:45,525
Well, I'm not supposed to tell.
1373
01:15:45,604 --> 01:15:47,539
Not until you've counted, too.
1374
01:15:47,607 --> 01:15:48,631
We're each supposed to make
1375
01:15:48,708 --> 01:15:49,801
an independent count.
1376
01:15:49,876 --> 01:15:51,275
You're kidding, right?
1377
01:15:51,345 --> 01:15:53,040
Well, I thought
those were the rules,
1378
01:15:53,114 --> 01:15:54,046
Mr. McAllister.
1379
01:15:54,115 --> 01:15:56,015
If they've changed
in any way, I can...
1380
01:15:56,084 --> 01:15:57,814
Larry, we're not electing
the fucking pope here.
1381
01:15:57,886 --> 01:15:59,649
Just tell me who won.
1382
01:16:05,329 --> 01:16:06,797
It's a squeaker, Mr. M.
1383
01:16:06,865 --> 01:16:09,835
I've got Tracy by a vote.
1384
01:16:09,902 --> 01:16:11,335
Just one vote.
1385
01:16:19,414 --> 01:16:20,882
Mr. M?
1386
01:16:23,253 --> 01:16:24,277
All right.
1387
01:16:26,190 --> 01:16:27,122
OK.
1388
01:16:27,191 --> 01:16:31,856
Well, guess I better do my count.

01:17:28,513 --> 01:17:30,448

Jim: I was at the end of
my count when it happened.
1393
01:17:45,703 --> 01:17:49,640
I'd come up with exactly
the same numbers as Larry:
1394
01:17:49,708 --> 01:17:52,439
256 to 257.
1395
01:17:52,512 --> 01:17:55,277
Tracy had won the election
by a single vote.
1396
01:17:56,784 --> 01:17:58,582
[Sighs]
1397
01:17:58,653 --> 01:18:01,645
I was about to announce
my tally when...
1398
01:18:09,067 --> 01:18:12,697
the sight ofTracy
at that moment affected me
1399
01:18:12,771 --> 01:18:14,671
in a way I can't fully explain.
1400
01:18:14,740 --> 01:18:17,938
Part of it was that she was spying.
1401
01:18:18,011 --> 01:18:21,140
But mostly it was her face.
1402
01:18:24,386 --> 01:18:28,153
Who knew how high
she would climb in life?
1403
01:18:28,225 --> 01:18:31,627
How many people would suffer
because of her?
1404
01:18:31,696 --> 01:18:33,926
I had to stop her...
1405
01:18:33,999 --> 01:18:36,195
now.

01:19:09,178 --> 01:19:11,238
Yeah?
1409
01:19:11,315 --> 01:19:13,647
I think we have a problem.
1410
01:19:13,717 --> 01:19:17,085
253, 254, and 255.
1411

Yep, I get the same as you, Jim.
1412
01:19:18,791 --> 01:19:20,656
Looks like Paul's
our next president.
1413
01:19:20,726 --> 01:19:22,285
Larry: No way!
1414
01:19:22,362 --> 01:19:23,761
l-l-It doesn't make sense.
1415
01:19:23,830 --> 01:19:26,322
Well, sorry, Larry,
but my figures work out
1416
01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:27,925
exactly the same
as Mr. McAllister's.
1417
01:19:28,003 --> 01:19:32,498
I get, uh, 256 for Paul,
255 for Tracy.
1418
01:19:32,575 --> 01:19:35,739
And 290 disregards, right?
1419
01:19:35,813 --> 01:19:36,837
If you say so.
1420
01:19:36,914 --> 01:19:38,849
Mostly Tammy fans,
if you can believe it.
1421
01:19:38,917 --> 01:19:40,350
See? It doesn't add up.
1422
01:19:40,418 --> 01:19:43,820
There were 801 ballots,
but 803 people voted.
1423
01:19:43,889 --> 01:19:45,084
Well, there must
be 2 votes missing.
1424
01:19:45,158 --> 01:19:46,352
Check the register.
1425
01:19:46,426 --> 01:19:48,520
He's right. 2 people must
have pocketed their ballots.
1426
01:19:48,596 --> 01:19:50,188
Usually there's more.
1427
01:19:50,264 --> 01:19:54,066
But they were there.
I counted 803 votes.
1428
01:19:54,137 --> 01:19:56,503
It happens, Larry.
People make mistakes.
1429
01:19:56,573 --> 01:19:58,166
I didn't make a mistake.
1430
01:19:58,242 --> 01:20:00,472
Every vote was there
when you sat down.
1431
01:20:00,544 --> 01:20:03,207
Easy, Falch. I don't
like where you're going.
1432
01:20:03,281 --> 01:20:04,613
I'm sorry, Dr. Hendricks,
1433
01:20:04,684 --> 01:20:06,811
but every vote
was accounted for.
1434
01:20:06,886 --> 01:20:08,354
Falch, that's enough.
1435
01:20:08,422 --> 01:20:10,687
End of story.

[Trumpet Fanfare]
1437
01:20:31,686 --> 01:20:32,914
Paul?
1438
01:20:32,987 --> 01:20:36,116
I just want to let you know
that no matter what happens
1439
01:20:36,191 --> 01:20:37,181
and how this turns out,
1440
01:20:37,260 --> 01:20:39,455
you've run a really great campaign.
1441
01:20:39,529 --> 01:20:41,054
Good luck.
1442
01:20:41,131 --> 01:20:43,794
Well, thanks, Tracy.
You, too.
1443
01:20:43,868 --> 01:20:46,029
I'm just glad it's over.
1444
01:20:47,907 --> 01:20:49,397
Jim:
If we can just get started.
1445
01:20:49,475 --> 01:20:52,104
People. People.
1446
01:20:52,179 --> 01:20:53,772
As soon as the winners
are announced,
1447
01:20:53,848 --> 01:20:55,577
we can all go home, OK?
1448
01:20:55,650 --> 01:20:58,711
Some contests are...
1449
01:20:58,787 --> 01:21:02,019
are so well-fought
that it seems unfair
1450
01:21:02,092 --> 01:21:03,218
for someone to win...
1451
01:21:03,293 --> 01:21:06,753
[Thinks] Act surprised.
Walk slowly to the podium.
1452
01:21:06,832 --> 01:21:10,325
Be modest. Thank them
for this incredible honor.
1453
01:21:10,403 --> 01:21:12,667
They're all highly qualified
1454
01:21:12,739 --> 01:21:17,371
and embody the, uh,
integrity that we expect
1455
01:21:17,445 --> 01:21:19,743
from the school leadership.
1456
01:21:19,814 --> 01:21:21,646
That said, the whole point
of an election
1457
01:21:21,717 --> 01:21:24,278
is to chose a winner,
and that you have done.
1458
01:21:24,354 --> 01:21:26,789
We'll begin with president.
1459
01:21:26,858 --> 01:21:28,917
I'd just like to add
1460
01:21:28,993 --> 01:21:31,155
that this was
an extraordinarily close race.
1461
01:21:33,166 --> 01:21:35,794
It is my pleasure
to announce the next president

I promise to do my best
1468
01:22:02,036 --> 01:22:06,304
and do a really good job
and be a good president.
1469
01:22:06,376 --> 01:22:08,640
I just want to thank,
uh, Lisa Flanagan
1470
01:22:08,711 --> 01:22:10,043
for being a super campaign manager.
1471
01:22:10,114 --> 01:22:13,175
I'd also like to say...

Yes, over there. Yeah, come on.

01:23:01,413 --> 01:23:03,780
Paul: Wow, Mr. M.
This is so wild.
1476
01:23:03,850 --> 01:23:05,478
We were just here, uh, you know,
1477
01:23:05,553 --> 01:23:06,952
celebrating my victory,
and you're here.

This is great.

Jim McAllister.
1482
01:23:12,295 --> 01:23:13,660
- Jo Metzler.
- How do you do?
1483
01:23:13,730 --> 01:23:15,254
Paul just thinks
the world of you.
1484
01:23:15,331 --> 01:23:16,299
I mean, you should hear him.
1485
01:23:16,367 --> 01:23:17,629
He goes on and on and on.
1486
01:23:17,701 --> 01:23:18,669
Yeah, apparently
you've really
1487
01:23:18,737 --> 01:23:19,999
come behind him,
really helped him out
1488
01:23:20,071 --> 01:23:21,231
with that student
council thing and all.
1489
01:23:21,306 --> 01:23:23,867
Oh, well... well, Paul
doesn't need any help from me.
1490
01:23:23,943 --> 01:23:26,174
He's... He's going places.
You should be very proud.
1491
01:23:26,246 --> 01:23:27,178

01:23:27,247 --> 01:23:29,011
Hey, look, you're all alone.

Why don't you come
over and join us?

Oh, I'm just finishing up here.

01:23:33,289 --> 01:23:34,687
I've gotta get home.
1497
01:23:34,821 --> 01:23:36,084
Oh, well, uh,
1498
01:23:36,156 --> 01:23:39,388
why don't you guys
go sit down, and, uh...
1499
01:23:39,461 --> 01:23:41,292
you know, I'll catch up
with you in a minute.
1500
01:23:41,363 --> 01:23:43,298
I'm going to talk to Mr. M
about some important stuff,
1501
01:23:43,366 --> 01:23:44,298
all right?
1502
01:23:44,367 --> 01:23:45,665
Dick: All right.
That sounds great.
1503
01:23:45,736 --> 01:23:47,670
- Hey, sure nice to meet you.
- Great to meet you.
1504
01:23:47,738 --> 01:23:49,331
- Pleasure.
- So nice, and thank you.
1505
01:23:49,407 --> 01:23:50,772
Jim: You bet.
1506
01:23:54,813 --> 01:23:56,509
So, Mr. M, I was starting
to think about,
1507
01:23:56,583 --> 01:23:58,711
you know, some ideas
for what we could do.
1508
01:23:58,786 --> 01:24:00,515
I was thinking
it would be cool
1509
01:24:00,588 --> 01:24:01,520
to have a carnival.
1510
01:24:01,590 --> 01:24:03,217
You know, with rides and stuff.
1511
01:24:03,292 --> 01:24:05,454
And it could be for,
like, muscular dystrophy.
1512
01:24:05,528 --> 01:24:08,760
And then on Halloween,
a haunted house.
1513
01:24:08,832 --> 01:24:10,595
You know, a really
good haunted house,
1514
01:24:10,668 --> 01:24:11,966
not those cheesy bad ones.
1515
01:24:12,037 --> 01:24:13,129
You know, I mean,
1516
01:24:13,204 --> 01:24:15,105
this one would be super-scary.
1517
01:24:15,174 --> 01:24:16,971
And then for homecoming,
1518
01:24:17,043 --> 01:24:18,671
well, you know
how last year's theme
1519
01:24:18,745 --> 01:24:21,236
was "Heaven On Earth"?
Well, this year...
1520
01:24:21,315 --> 01:24:25,048
Paul, we'll have plenty of
time to talk about this later.
1521
01:24:25,120 --> 01:24:27,782
A whole year, in fact.
1522
01:24:27,856 --> 01:24:30,325
But right now, I'd just...
1523
01:24:30,393 --> 01:24:32,624
I need to finish my pie,
1524
01:24:32,697 --> 01:24:34,666
go on home.
1525
01:24:34,733 --> 01:24:38,033
Yeah, OK. Sorry.
1526
01:24:38,104 --> 01:24:41,096
Uh, Mr. M,
just one more thing.
1527
01:24:41,175 --> 01:24:44,805
So, uh, do you think
Tracy's gonna be OK?
1528
01:24:44,879 --> 01:24:47,313
I mean, I saw her face
after the assembly.
1529
01:24:47,382 --> 01:24:49,681
It looked like she was
taking it pretty hard.
1530
01:24:49,752 --> 01:24:52,244
Don't worry about Tracy.
1531
01:24:52,322 --> 01:24:55,156
She'll be fine.
1532
01:25:08,643 --> 01:25:10,474
Oh, sweetheart.
1533
01:25:13,316 --> 01:25:16,343
Oh, baby. Baby.
1534

Oh, baby.
1535
01:25:18,289 --> 01:25:20,519
Take one of my pills.
1536
01:25:20,592 --> 01:25:23,528
You'll feel better.
1537
01:25:23,596 --> 01:25:25,656
Here.
1538
01:25:28,903 --> 01:25:32,635
Come on, baby. Come on.

That's... That's it.

That's it, baby.
1544
01:25:46,526 --> 01:25:48,859
That's it, honey.
1545
01:25:53,401 --> 01:25:56,599
Maybe you needed
more posters, honey.

01:25:56,672 --> 01:25:59,938

taken my suggestions
1547
01:26:00,010 --> 01:26:01,808
about your speech.
1548
01:26:01,879 --> 01:26:04,280
I don't know.
1549
01:26:04,349 --> 01:26:06,283
We'll figure it out.

1552
01:26:31,251 --> 01:26:33,447
Did you want the same room?
1553
01:26:35,356 --> 01:26:37,086

resolved to get
my life back on track.
1558
01:27:11,069 --> 01:27:14,096
The way I saw it, Diane's
kicking me out of the house
1559
01:27:14,173 --> 01:27:15,299
had been a good thing,
1560
01:27:15,375 --> 01:27:16,707
a wake-up call.
1561
01:27:16,777 --> 01:27:19,906
It wasn't a setback.
It was an opportunity.
1562
01:27:19,981 --> 01:27:22,006
I figured we just
needed a little time
1563
01:27:22,083 --> 01:27:23,847
to work things out.
1564
01:27:23,920 --> 01:27:26,184

and the worst was over.
1566
01:27:28,592 --> 01:27:30,754
After all, what harm
had really been done?
1567
01:27:30,828 --> 01:27:32,693

Uh, come on in, son.
We have something...

01:29:12,661 --> 01:29:15,893
hard we have to tell you.
1589
01:29:15,965 --> 01:29:16,897
Is it about Tammy?
1590
01:29:16,966 --> 01:29:18,365
It's about the election.
1591
01:29:22,007 --> 01:29:24,942
Jim: After Paul
got the bad news,
1592
01:29:25,011 --> 01:29:27,070
Walt asked for a few minutes
alone with me.
1593
01:29:27,146 --> 01:29:29,741
It was very simple, really.
1594
01:29:29,817 --> 01:29:31,786
I offered my resignation,
1595
01:29:31,853 --> 01:29:34,447
and he accepted.
1596
01:29:34,522 --> 01:29:38,084
Very quietly, it was
all over forJim McAllister

at Carver High.
1598
01:29:43,501 --> 01:29:46,027
Suddenly everyone knew who I was...

who had tried to crush
the dreams of an innocent girl.

Overnight, all the good things
I had ever done in my life
1602
01:29:53,547 --> 01:29:55,914
evaporated.
1603
01:29:55,984 --> 01:29:58,613
Soon the wire services
picked up on the story.
1604
01:29:58,688 --> 01:30:02,147
It was the kind of absurd news item
people E-mail each other
1605
01:30:02,226 --> 01:30:05,321
or post on the bulletin
board at work.
1606
01:30:05,396 --> 01:30:09,424
To top it all off, Diane had
started divorce proceedings.
1607
01:30:09,502 --> 01:30:12,597
She was completely unforgiving
about the thing with Linda.
1608
01:30:12,672 --> 01:30:15,369
In the end, she took
almost everything,
1609
01:30:15,443 --> 01:30:17,240
including the house.
1610
01:30:17,311 --> 01:30:19,405
I got the car.
1611
01:30:35,602 --> 01:30:37,502
Then one day,
1612
01:30:37,571 --> 01:30:39,665
I realized it was time
to get out of Omaha
1613
01:30:39,741 --> 01:30:41,437
and move on.

01:30:47,685 --> 01:30:49,118
Paul:
Senior year was great.
1615
01:30:49,187 --> 01:30:53,181
Sure, I didn't get to
play ball or be president,
1616
01:30:53,258 --> 01:30:56,558
but I got elected
homecoming king and prom king.
1617
01:30:56,629 --> 01:30:59,098
I got into Nebraska,
like I wanted,
1618
01:30:59,166 --> 01:31:00,531
and early rushed Phi Delts.
1619
01:31:00,601 --> 01:31:02,467
And at the end of the year,
me and my buddies
1620
01:31:02,537 --> 01:31:05,837
threw a bitchin' Mexican party
down at the cement plant.
1621
01:31:05,908 --> 01:31:08,226
Shit, that was a good party.
1622
01:31:08,360 --> 01:31:11,922
The only really bad thing
about senior year was Lisa.
1623
01:31:11,998 --> 01:31:13,659
Right before Christmas,
she dumped me.
1624
01:31:13,733 --> 01:31:16,032
One minute, she's
totally in love with me,
1625
01:31:16,103 --> 01:31:20,040
and then boom, she goes after
my football buddy Randy.
1626
01:31:20,108 --> 01:31:22,509
Sometimes I wonder
what would have happened
1627
01:31:22,578 --> 01:31:24,444
if I had actually won
the election.
1628
01:31:24,514 --> 01:31:26,175
Maybe my whole life
would be different.
1629
01:31:26,249 --> 01:31:29,185
Like I might never
have gone to Yosemite
1630
01:31:29,253 --> 01:31:30,983
with Greg and Travis.
1631
01:31:31,056 --> 01:31:33,081

Tammy: Catholic school
was great.
1634
01:31:40,100 --> 01:31:43,502
I mean, the teachers
kind of sucked,
1635
01:31:43,572 --> 01:31:46,041
and they were supposedly
way more strict.

very productive for me.

Let's vote on this issue.

On top of a very successful
student council year,
1651
01:32:28,731 --> 01:32:30,962
I was in the top
seventh percentile

with scholarships.
1656
01:32:37,342 --> 01:32:38,775
Approved.
1657
01:32:40,546 --> 01:32:43,744
But sometimes I got lonely,
and I'd think about Dave.

Maybe it could have
worked out between us.

I don't know.
1661
01:32:49,190 --> 01:32:52,160
I wonder what he's doing now.
1662
01:32:52,228 --> 01:32:56,326
Maybe he finally
finished his novel.

the way you're supposed to feel.

signing each other's yearbooks.

Mr. McAllister was concerned,

01:33:29,109 --> 01:33:31,908
you might be surprised,

Besides, nobody had heard
from him in a long time.

existed in the first place.

It wasn't like that at all.

how lucky they had it.
1689

That's OK. I've come to
accept that very few people

Jim: New York City.
1704
01:34:57,724 --> 01:35:00,819
For centuries, people
have come to New York
1705
01:35:00,895 --> 01:35:04,388
seeking refuge from
their troubled lives.
1706
01:35:04,467 --> 01:35:08,097
Now I am one of them.
1707
01:35:08,171 --> 01:35:10,163

of living in New York.

Living in the city brings
surprises all the time.

Oh, sure, my apartment's
a little smaller

than what I was used to
back in Omaha,

01:35:28,298 --> 01:35:30,163
And I'm cozy enough.
1717
01:35:33,238 --> 01:35:35,298
Besides, it's great
not needing a car.
1718
01:35:35,374 --> 01:35:38,401
And I get a lot of reading
done on the subway.
1719
01:35:38,478 --> 01:35:40,673
Some days I even walk to work.

The job market is
pretty tight in New York,

but after hunting around
for a while,
1722
01:35:48,391 --> 01:35:50,825
I finally landed a position
in the education department
1723

both volunteer docents

and trained educators like myself...

who pick up where
the classwork leaves off.

She works at the museum, too,
in Signs and Signage.
1733
01:36:15,593 --> 01:36:18,290
She's really different
from Diane, and, I don't know,
1734
01:36:18,363 --> 01:36:20,763
I've never met anyone
quite like her.

Just once.
1740
01:36:35,886 --> 01:36:41,087
I was down in Washington for
a museum educator's conference,
1741
01:36:41,160 --> 01:36:43,492
and I stayed an extra day
to do some sightseeing.
1742
01:36:46,166 --> 01:36:49,227
After an inspiring morning
on the Mall,
1743
01:36:49,303 --> 01:36:53,138
I was on my way to
the Holocaust Museum when...
1744
01:37:27,920 --> 01:37:30,115
I'll never know if she saw me.
1745
01:37:30,189 --> 01:37:31,817
Probably not.
1746
01:37:31,892 --> 01:37:34,361
But in that moment,
all the bad memories,
1747
01:37:34,429 --> 01:37:37,422
all the things I'd ever
wanted to say to her,
1748
01:37:37,500 --> 01:37:39,764
it all came flooding back.
1749
01:37:42,539 --> 01:37:44,667
My first impulse
was to run over there,
1750
01:37:44,742 --> 01:37:46,004
pound on her window,
1751
01:37:46,077 --> 01:37:48,444
and demand that she admit
she tore down those posters
1752
01:37:48,514 --> 01:37:51,848
and lied and cheated her way
into winning that election.
1753

But, instead,
I just stood there.
1754
01:37:57,125 --> 01:38:01,756
And I suddenly realized
I wasn't angry at her anymore.
1755
01:38:01,831 --> 01:38:04,699
I just felt sorry for her.

what her life must be like...

at 5:00 in the morning

little dreams...

it just makes me sad.
1762
01:38:20,155 --> 01:38:23,614
I mean where is she really
trying to get to anyway?
