- There's calculus, differential equa--
- I'll learn the math.
:43:04
This is great, Miss Riley.
I'll learn everything.
:43:08
It's the best present
anyone's ever given me.
:43:11
Thank you.
I'm gonna show the guys.
:43:14
- Quentin will probably go cra--
- Goodness gracious.
:43:17
Watch where you're goin'.
:43:21
- Where'd you get this?
- I gave it to him.
:43:24
Bye, Miss Riley.
:43:28
Miss Riley, our job is to give these
kids an education, not false hopes.
:43:33
False hopes?
:43:36
Do you want me to sit quiet...
:43:38
let 'em breathe in coal dust
the rest of their life?
:43:41
Miss Riley, once in a while...
:43:44
a lucky one will get out
on a football scholarship.
:43:47
The rest of 'em
work in the mines.
:43:50
How about I believe
in the unlucky ones, hmm?
:43:53
I have to, Mr. Turner,
or I'd go out of my mind.
:44:03
- It's good.
- Homer!
:44:05
Happy birthday, son.
:44:07
Got some good news for you, Homer.
:44:09
Say hello to Fred Smith from
the University of West Virginia.
:44:13
- Hello, Homer.
- Hi, sir.
:44:15
Mr. Smith wants Jim to play football.
He's offering him a full scholarship.
:44:19
Well, congratulations, Jim.
:44:21
Do you play ball, son?
:44:23
No, Homer shoots off rockets.
Whoosh and all that.
:44:27
Well, rockets
are not exactly my field, son...
:44:29
but maybe if you work hard,
you'll go to college too.
:44:32
Yeah, on a science fiction
scholarship, maybe.
:44:46
Dear Dr. von Braun, thank you
for the autographed picture.
:44:50
Itwill only further inspire me
to keep working...
:44:52
toward our all-important goal of
entering that science fair this spring.
