- No.
- It is easier, perhaps, than some other job?

:40:10
Easier?
:40:14
Perhaps you're dedicated.
:40:19
No, hardly. No, I wanna teach.
:40:22
Most of us wanna do something creative.
I can't be a painter, writer or engineer.

:40:26
But I thought that if I could help to shape
young minds, sort of sculpt lives...

:40:32
...and by teaching, I'd be creative.
- For every school like yours...

:40:36
...there are hundreds like this one. We could
use you, but your school needs you.

:40:41
You still want to teach here
in this school?

:40:50
I think I'll take another crack at my jungle.
:41:12
Report says you couldn't identify
any of the boys.

:41:15
It was dark. I told you it was dark.
I couldn't see anything.

:41:18
What are you protecting? The good name
of this school? Your job?

:41:21
- Someone gotta die before you'll cooperate?
- It wasn't that serious.

:41:25
- Weren't in class for a week. That's serious.
- What do you expect me to do?

:41:29
Press charges. I'll find
the ones who did it.

:41:33
- I'll go over every kid in this school.
- You'll do more harm.

:41:36
Mr. Dadier, I've handled lots
of problem kids in my time.

:41:40
Kids from both sides of the tracks.
:41:42
They were 5 or 6 years old in
the last war. Father in the Army.

:41:45
Mother in a defense plant.
No home life. No church life.

:41:49
No place to go. They formed street gangs.
:41:53
It's way over my head, Mr. Dadier.
:41:56
Maybe the kids today are like the rest
of the world. Mixed-up, suspicious, scared.
