- What, you...? You mean I have the job?
- Congratulations.

:05:04
Oh, thanks.
:05:05
Try to meet the other teachers
and get acquainted.

:05:08
Organizational meeting in an hour.
Any questions?

:05:11
No, l... No, sir.
:05:16
There's just one question, sir.
:05:18
The discipline problem here. L...
:05:20
- I beg your pardon?
- Well, I understand...

:05:22
There is no discipline problem in this school,
Mr. Dadier. Not as long as I'm principal.

:05:29
I see. Thank you, sir.
:05:35
Miss Brady, my credentials.
:05:39
- Mr. Edwards. Joshua.
- Thank you very much.

:05:42
Not at all.
:05:44
Shall l...?
:05:53
Anyway, he says to me,
"Exaggeration, pure exaggeration.

:05:56
There is absolutely no
discipline problem here."

You can't teach a disorderly mob.
:06:04
You got to have discipline,
and that means obedience.

- How will you get that?
- With a ruler.

:06:09
Take a ruler to one of these delinquents,
he'll beat you with it.

:06:12
- Oh, my name's Murdock. New teacher?
- Yes. English. Richard Dadier.

:06:16
- Lou Savoldi. Carpentry.
- George Katz. Social science.

:06:18
I'm taking money under
the false pretense of teaching history.

:06:22
- Thought you developed their muscles.
- No. Developing my own.

:06:25
Getting in shape to defend myself
for the fall term.

:06:28
- Makes it sound like a reform school.
- Oh, first teaching job, eh?

:06:32
- That's right.
- Don't listen to him, he's a cynic.

:06:34
Why not? This is the garbage can
of the educational system.

:06:37
You put these schools
together and what have you got?

:06:40
One big, fat, overflowing garbage can.
:06:44
- Think of teaching in an all-girls school.
- Think of those 20-year jail sentences.

:06:49
Got any tips for a rookie?
:06:50
Two. Don't be a hero
and never turn your back on the class.

:06:55
- Manners.
- Huh?
