00:04:00 - Hey, Mr McAllister.
00:04:05 - You know about the early bird.
00:04:13 - Good luck there, Tracy.
00:04:19 None of this would have happened
00:04:24 He should have accepted things and
00:04:29 You can't interfere with destiny,
00:04:34 If you try to interfere, the same
00:04:42 It's hard to remember how it
00:04:47 I do remember that I loved my job.
00:04:52 I couldn't imagine
00:04:55 Mr McAllister, quit daydreaming
00:05:01 The students knew it wasn't
00:05:06 Put down the cards, boys.
00:05:10 Come on, Wolverines.
00:05:14 I knew I touched their lives during
00:05:20 I took that responsibility
00:05:26 In the 12 years I taught history
00:05:30 - I was voted teacher of the year
00:05:36 Teaching was all
00:05:40 Trying to get young people
00:05:46 Trying to prepare them for the tough
00:05:53 That's how I wanted
00:05:57 Is this a moral situation
00:06:01 What's the difference between
00:06:08 Ethics is when you do
00:06:12 - Morals...
00:06:18 Can anybody help him out?
00:06:23 Morals are like lessons,
00:06:28 It's what you learn
00:06:32 Or a life experience.
00:06:35 Ethics is how you use the morals
00:06:41 We're missing something key here.
00:06:55 - Tracy.
00:06:59 I'd seen a lot of ambitious students
00:07:05 - but Tracy Flick
00:07:08 People who think I'm an overachiever
00:07:13 My mum tells me I'm special.
00:07:16 Looking at what I've accomplished
00:07:27 Here I am as Hodel
00:07:35 Here I am on KCHS,
00:07:38 The littering must stop.
00:07:43 The Student Government Association
00:07:48 I never missed a single meeting
00:07:53 I agree with Ashley. What happened
00:07:59 It reflected poorly on all of us.
00:08:01 Now Tracy Flick was poised to win
00:08:07 So far,
00:08:10 Determined by a culture...
00:08:13 There's one more thing about Tracy
00:08:17 Her pussy gets so wet,
00:08:21 I don't want to know that.
00:08:25 A few months earlier, she'd got into
00:08:30 Dave Novotny.
00:08:35 Dave came to Carver the year after
00:08:40 Dave taught because
00:08:44 Basically he was a good guy.
00:08:50 When Dave and Linda's son was born,
00:08:58 You probably think that Mr Novotny
00:09:03 It wasn't like that.
00:09:06 Our relationship was based on
00:09:10 During my sophomore year it was
00:09:16 It wasn't until junior year
00:09:22 The yearbook editors
00:09:25 Dave and I were left alone.
00:09:29 Not like teacher and student,
00:09:34 I noticed that you don't
00:09:38 - You seem to be a loner.
00:09:43 I know it's not by choice.
00:09:48 A person like you... It must be
00:09:54 What do you mean?
00:10:01 I've been watching you
00:10:07 I think you are one of the most
00:10:13 - brilliant students...
00:10:19 Thank you.
00:10:22 I know sometimes people like you
00:10:29 And that price is loneliness.
00:10:35 It just seems to me
00:10:43 Growing up without a dad, you might
00:10:49 But that had nothing to do with it.
00:10:53 He made me feel safe.
00:10:56 It was the first time
00:11:02 Okay, get down.
00:12:01 When I think back on
00:12:05 - what I miss most is our talks.
00:12:09 You did it in your own house?
00:12:13 I know it seems crazy.
00:12:16 What I'm trying to tell you -
00:12:20 - is that Tracy and I
00:12:27 - In love?
00:12:30 She inspires me.
00:12:35 - You haven't written your novel.
00:12:42 Tracy wants me to write it
00:12:48 Dave, I'm just saying this
00:12:53 What you're doing is really wrong,
00:12:59 The line you've crossed
00:13:03 I don't need a lecture on ethics.
00:13:07 - I'm talking about morals.
00:13:13 I guess I don't have to tell you
00:13:19 MAUI IS FOR LOVERS
00:13:23 Tracy, let's go to Paradise.
00:13:27 P.S. I really need you now.
00:13:34 Tracy's mum,
00:13:38 I'd say she doesn't.
00:13:46 I know what Tracy told her mother,
00:13:50 I need to hear this from you.
00:13:59 Did you cross the line
00:14:14 We're in love.
00:14:21 Your novel?
00:14:25 After Dave got fired, Linda kicked
00:14:30 He moved back in with his parents.
00:14:39 - Ethics are the basis of...
00:14:50 - Could I retake the last test?
00:14:55 I had to work late
00:15:00 Now I have more life experience,
00:15:04 He's stuck in the same little room,
00:15:09 - saying the exact same things
00:15:14 - while his students go to college,
00:15:18 - do great things
00:15:22 He's got to be a little jealous.
00:15:26 It's like my mum says: "The weak
00:15:31 It's important to know
00:15:35 My mum is really devoted to me.
00:15:39 She wants me to do
00:15:43 Mum used to be a stewardess
00:15:48 She likes to write letters
00:15:52 - and ask them what advice
00:15:58 They say you have to hold onto
00:16:02 You have to work hard and not
00:16:09 - Hey, put those back!
00:16:14 But winning isn't everything.
00:16:17 Ethical conduct is more important.
00:16:22 Mr McAllister, wait up!
00:16:26 Mr McAllister, don't go.
00:16:32 I got all my signatures.
00:16:36 - Super.
00:16:39 I'll take a look at them tomorrow.
00:16:42 Could you approve them now? I'd like
00:16:55 - Yeah, those look good to me.
00:17:00 - No, that's fine.
00:17:06 - Right, fine.
00:17:14 I can't wait to start campaigning.
00:17:19 So far there's no competition.
00:17:22 Coca-Cola spend more money
00:17:28 I guess that's how
00:17:32 Yeah...
00:17:37 When I win the presidency, we'll
00:17:43 I would like that time to be
00:17:50 - Wouldn't you?
00:17:55 Okay, that's what I thought.
00:18:00 - Good luck, Tracy.
00:18:09 I don't blame Tracy for the trouble
00:18:16 She got on my nerves,
00:18:24 Thank God for Diane. She was
00:18:29 We'd had bumpy times,
00:18:34 After nine years of marriage,
00:18:39 - Anything wrong?
00:18:51 When I win the presidency, we'll
00:18:57 Lots of time.
00:19:01 President and advisor.
00:19:07 Close and special.
00:19:45 - Crystal, what are you doing here?
00:19:51 - What if coach Henderson walks in?
00:19:56 - What are you reading?
00:20:01 We can practise. You be
00:20:18 Coca-Cola is the world's
00:20:33 Paul.
00:20:46 I was so mad at God when I broke
00:20:50 Why?
00:20:52 The doctors told me I'd have to
00:20:57 No first-string quarterback.
00:21:03 When I got back to school
00:21:08 - but I couldn't shake the feeling
00:21:13 What did God want from me?
00:21:17 You can search everywhere
00:21:21 Then one day, destiny just walks up
00:21:25 I know because it happened to me.
00:21:30 Paul, can I speak to you?
00:21:33 Mr McAllister changed my life.
00:21:36 No matter what they say he did,
00:21:42 You've been pretty down
00:21:46 I wanted to play football again
00:21:51 - Go on to the playoffs...
00:21:56 I personally think you have
00:22:01 - I'm not talking about sports.
00:22:07 You're a natural leader. You're
00:22:12 And you don't crack under pressure,
00:22:19 All the kids look up to you.
00:22:28 Student council president.
00:22:33 Who me? No... I don't
00:22:40 - That's Tracy Flick's thing.
00:22:46 - And she's super nice.
00:22:50 But one person assured of victory
00:22:56 That would be
00:23:00 - What's your favourite fruit?
00:23:05 - Good, let's say...
00:23:10 - Apples.
00:23:14 Let's say all you ever knew
00:23:21 You might think apples were good,
00:23:25 But one day, there's an orange.
00:23:31 Do you want an apple or an orange?
00:23:36 - I also like bananas.
00:23:41 What do you say?
00:23:45 - How's that?
00:23:52 Eric, you can't put tape
00:23:58 You'd better take
00:24:16 - Who put you up to this?
00:24:21 You suddenly decided
00:24:25 I just thought...
00:24:30 I told Mr McAllister that I want
00:24:36 - Mr McAllister asked you to run?
00:24:41 He thought it was a good idea.
00:24:44 He said that there's
00:24:48 Tracy, you're the best.
00:24:52 Okay, you're on, Mr Popular.
00:24:57 Paul Metzler didn't upset me.
00:25:03 He was no competition for me.
00:25:06 I just had to work a little harder.
00:25:10 I believe in the voters.
00:25:16 They know this country was built
00:25:22 Not everyone
00:25:25 Not like some rich kids
00:25:30 - and give them trucks
00:25:34 They don't ever have to work hard.
00:25:40 - and take what other people have
00:25:47 No, it didn't bother me at all.
00:25:53 Paul Power.
00:25:57 Paul for president.
00:26:01 Promise, progress, peanut.
00:26:45 - What?
00:26:49 It just doesn't feel right anymore.
00:26:53 But I love you.
00:26:57 I said, no!
00:27:01 - Tammy, guess what happened today?
00:27:05 - Hi, Lisa.
00:27:09 - Mr McAllister tells me...
00:27:14 - You dumb shit!
00:27:18 It's not like I'm a lesbian.
00:27:22 It's just seem to
00:27:28 Lisa, wait.
00:27:32 Stop!
00:27:37 - Where are you going?
00:27:42 - What do you mean?
00:27:48 We're just... experimenting.
00:28:05 How can something that seemed
00:28:16 Lisa and I
00:28:19 Of all the people on the planet,
00:28:24 It was like a miracle.
00:28:29 We had so much fun together.
00:28:33 - to see how long it takes
00:28:37 It was very scientific. For me it
00:28:43 Every day I found a new way
00:28:49 If you died, I'd dive into
00:28:54 - and get poured into your tomb.
00:28:59 But the closer we got,
00:29:03 Are you crazy.
00:29:08 - Other people can see them here.
00:29:11 I do!
00:29:16 What did I do to make her change?
00:29:20 What's wrong with me?
00:29:25 Sometimes when I'm sad,
00:29:30 They say that if you lie between the
00:29:36 You become a gas.
00:29:48 Lisa decided
00:29:53 And she knew exactly what to do.
00:29:58 Lisa Flannigan asked me for a
00:30:05 I've wanted this for so long.
00:30:08 Life is so weird.
00:30:14 - and the next thing you know
00:30:17 She offered to help with the
00:30:22 We made a great team. It seemed
00:30:28 It was like a miracle.
00:30:33 My leg was okay
00:30:36 After school, we'd go to Lisa's
00:31:01 If that's the way they wanted it,
00:31:05 But I wasn't going down
00:31:14 Tammy, what are you doing?
00:31:19 Stop her. She's not qualified.
00:31:23 Calm down.
00:31:26 Can we both run?
00:31:30 - It's a conflict of interest.
00:31:40 These are a bunch of burn-outs.
00:31:45 Tim Cobzer.
00:31:47 - She wants to get back at me.
00:31:51 - I mean, at you.
00:31:54 Tim Cobzer?
00:31:59 We'll have the assembly tomorrow.
00:32:03 Everyone can make their speeches.
00:32:08 - You're scaring him.
00:32:14 Around that time, Diane and I
00:32:19 Giving her love and support
00:32:29 We really wanted to have kids, but
00:32:36 She had to finish nursing school,
00:32:41 Finally, we decided to go for it.
00:32:44 Are you going to do it?
00:32:48 For over a year
00:32:51 Come on, do it. Fill me up.
00:32:55 Come on. Fill me up.
00:33:07 Okay.
00:33:13 Good job.
00:33:22 Jim, can you get this?
00:33:28 - Yeah, sure.
00:33:36 Linda needed a lot of help
00:33:40 - Here?
00:33:47 - Here?
00:33:54 I'd always liked Linda,
00:34:02 With Dave out of the picture,
00:34:08 We got to be kind of buddies.
00:34:17 - What do you think?
00:34:22 - I can't afford this stuff now.
00:34:26 You're cooped up all the time
00:34:35 - Should we get a room?
00:34:52 That's not funny.
00:35:02 - How did it go?
00:35:09 - Did you guys have fun?
00:35:15 - I mean, you know...
00:35:19 Linda's great, but she can be
00:35:28 God, just like that. Yeah.
00:35:32 Fill me up.
00:35:35 Yeah, fill me up!
00:35:40 God, just like that.
00:35:48 God, just like that.
00:35:52 Do it, Jim. Just like that.
00:35:58 Just like that. Do it, Mr M.
00:36:03 Fuck me hard, Mr McAllister.
00:36:07 Fuck me harder, please.
00:36:13 My life was going pretty well-
00:36:18 - until things started going haywire
00:36:21 I love Carver High and I will
00:36:28 Vote for Jerry Slavin
00:36:31 Even if I can't really
00:36:36 Thank you.
00:36:43 Thank you. Jerry is running
00:36:49 We'll move on now to
00:36:55 The first, in alphabetical order,
00:37:08 Henry David Thoreau once wrote:
00:37:11 "I cannot make my days longer,
00:37:16 At Carver we have an opportunity
00:37:21 During this campaign,
00:37:27 Eliza Ramirez says she feels
00:37:33 Reggie Banks, whose mother
00:37:37 - and can't afford to buy him books.
00:37:40 - Eat me.
00:37:48 If you can't be adults, and give
00:37:54 - you don't deserve
00:37:59 And you'll be treated like children.
00:38:08 I care about Carver
00:38:12 Together we can make a difference.
00:38:15 Cast your vote for Tracy Flick,
00:38:20 You'll be voting for yourself
00:38:25 Our days might not be any longer
00:38:38 The next candidate is Paul Metzler.
00:39:16 When I broke my leg this year,
00:39:23 I want to help people
00:39:27 It's our second home,
00:39:32 I want our school
00:39:37 That's why I'm running
00:39:41 Like when I threw the fourth-quarter
00:39:48 I won't let you down. We can all
00:39:53 Vote Paul Metzler for President.
00:40:09 The final presidential candidate
00:40:17 Tammy Metzler.
00:40:34 People!
00:40:40 Who cares
00:40:49 We all know it doesn't matter
00:40:54 Do you really think
00:40:58 Will it make one single person
00:41:05 The only person it matters to
00:41:09 The same pathetic charade
00:41:13 Just so someone gets to put
00:41:21 Vote for me.
00:41:25 As president, I won't do anything.
00:41:29 The only promise I'll make is to
00:41:36 - so we'll never have
00:41:48 Tammy! Tammy!
00:41:55 Or don't vote for me.
00:42:18 Close the door.
00:42:21 That bitch made a fool out of us.
00:42:27 Getting everyone all riled up.
00:42:32 We can't stop her just because
00:42:39 Yeah, whatever. But she's a
00:42:46 All we need to do is send a message.
00:42:52 That's it!
00:43:00 Suspension is like a vacation.
00:43:05 If your dog pees on the carpet,
00:43:09 Then you get into trouble
00:43:13 Hendricks said next time I'd be
00:44:19 Hi, Tammy.
00:44:23 - What do you want?
00:44:28 Last time you got suspended
00:44:35 - Thanks a lot, Paul.
00:44:40 - Now could you leave me alone?
00:44:44 There's just one other thing.
00:44:50 Everyone's saying it's really weird
00:44:54 You never really told me
00:44:59 But that's okay.
00:45:03 I want you to know that no matter
00:45:08 We're still brother and sister,
00:45:13 I hope you feel the same.
00:45:20 What happened at the speeches
00:45:23 That little bitch isn't going
00:45:29 If all those cheering students
00:45:34 The nights spent on the yearbook,
00:45:44 I had to clean up the group photos.
00:45:46 A cinch with our new software.
00:45:52 People are so ungrateful.
00:49:26 The day before the election, things
00:49:30 There's your culprit.
00:49:33 Linda had asked me to stop by
00:49:39 - Did you know Dave's a bed-wetter?
00:49:45 All his life.
00:49:52 - Is that still running clear?
00:49:55 Better let it run for a while.
00:49:59 Wait.
00:50:09 I guess you'd better get to work.
00:50:25 Thank you, Jim.
00:50:41 It just happened.
00:50:47 But once we started,
00:50:51 It was a miracle.
00:51:08 - Take me to that motel.
00:51:13 Come by after school.
00:51:17 - 3:25.
00:51:30 What had blossomed between Linda
00:51:36 For the first time in years,
00:52:08 - It's not fair.
00:52:14 It must be a mistake,
00:52:19 - Where the hell have you been?
00:52:23 - I don't teach until second period.
00:52:29 If Paul loses,
00:52:33 - Somebody tore down their posters.
00:52:39 - We'll get to the bottom of it.
00:52:43 - It was Tammy.
00:52:49 That speech she gave,
00:52:54 We'll get to the bottom of it.
00:53:00 Mr McAllister will handle
00:53:05 What's that?
00:53:18 Tracy.
00:53:23 Tracy, come on in.
00:53:26 Close the door behind you.
00:53:34 Have a seat.
00:53:41 You know why you're here.
00:53:46 If it's about the posters,
00:53:51 A travesty? That's interesting...
00:53:59 What?
00:54:02 Are you accusing me?
00:54:05 We've worked together
00:54:09 My own banner was torn down, too.
00:54:13 Were you in the Looking Glass
00:54:17 I was. Mr Pecharda let me in.
00:54:21 With my many responsibilities
00:54:27 - I left early, around 6:30.
00:54:33 How do you know what time
00:54:38 I don't,
00:54:42 I'm giving you helpful information.
00:54:45 We should be trying to figure out
00:54:50 Okay, who do you think did it?
00:54:57 It could have been any of the
00:55:01 Like Rick Thieson
00:55:05 What about Tammy Metzler?
00:55:12 You're a very intelligent girl,
00:55:17 But being smart and doing whatever
00:55:23 - and stepping on other people...
00:55:26 There's more to life than that.
00:55:34 Why are you lecturing me?
00:55:37 This isn't the time or the place
00:55:41 But for one example,
00:55:45 - made a very big mistake.
00:55:49 I think the lesson here
00:55:55 We have to learn that our actions
00:56:03 Maybe if certain
00:56:08 - hadn't acted like little babies,
00:56:13 I agree. And certain young
00:56:17 - should thank their lucky stars -
00:56:21 - that the entire school didn't find
00:56:26 - that could have ruined their
00:56:31 Certain older people shouldn't
00:56:37 Some can't even
00:56:41 And slanderous accusations shouldn't
00:56:46 - whose mothers are paralegal
00:56:52 If you want to keep questioning me,
00:57:02 - You wanted to see me?
00:57:06 - Is this about the posters?
00:57:12 Okay, because I know who did it.
00:57:16 So I'll just be outside.
00:57:22 Don't go anywhere, Tracy.
00:57:27 This ought to be good.
00:57:32 What do you have to tell me?
00:57:35 This is hard for me,
00:57:40 - What is it, Tammy?
00:57:47 - I did it.
00:57:51 Yesterday. Sunday.
00:57:54 - How did you get in?
00:58:00 - Which door?
00:58:04 - I don't believe you.
00:58:35 Tracy, it looks like today
00:58:39 You're off the hook.
00:58:54 I told you.
00:59:00 Okay, easy now.
00:59:05 The rest of the day was unbearable.
00:59:11 I couldn't wait to get out of there.
00:59:16 I wanted everything to be perfect
00:59:20 I decided to give myself some time
00:59:24 Pop-quiz, everybody.
00:59:27 Put your stuff away. If you've done
00:59:33 I had 48 minutes to arrange it all.
00:59:37 If you finish early, sit quietly.
01:00:59 Okay everybody, pass them forward.
01:01:05 See you on Wednesday.
01:01:50 Linda.
01:02:00 Linda!
01:02:29 Jesus!
01:02:42 You've reached the Novotny's.
01:02:48 Linda, it's me.
01:02:53 It's 4:32.
01:03:02 I waited there,
01:03:08 I'm at the place we talked about.
01:03:12 Suite 246.
01:03:15 And I'm here.
01:03:20 So I hope you get here soon.
01:03:31 I just don't get it.
01:03:34 What you have against your mother
01:03:40 Your mother's upset,
01:03:44 Your behaviour keeps getting
01:03:49 Who knows
01:03:54 I just had a long conversation
01:03:58 I phoned him at home.
01:04:01 He doesn't want you back at Carver.
01:04:06 And I don't blame him.
01:04:10 Tammy, your father and I
01:04:14 You're going to Immaculate Heart.
01:04:18 Maybe the nuns
01:04:22 Is that funny?
01:05:57 Okay.
01:06:49 Dear Lord Jesus,
01:06:54 - but I must insist you
01:06:58 I deserve it and
01:07:02 I realise it was your divine hand
01:07:09 Make sure you put me in office,
01:07:14 Amen.
01:07:16 God, I don't believe in you, but
01:07:23 What do I want?
01:07:26 I want Lisa to realise what a bitch
01:07:34 I want Paul to win the election
01:07:39 I also want a pair
01:07:43 And someday I want to be
01:07:48 Dear God, you've given me
01:07:53 Good health,
01:07:57 - and what I'm told
01:08:00 But I'm worried about Tammy. I can't
01:08:06 But sometimes she gets so angry.
01:08:11 She's so smart and sensitive,
01:08:15 I'm nervous
01:08:19 I want to win,
01:08:23 You'll decide
01:08:26 Forgive me for my sins,
01:08:38 Linda never came home. I waited
01:08:59 Oh, God.
01:09:33 On election day, my mum and I
01:09:46 Good morning, Mr M.
01:09:52 It looks like you
01:10:02 What happened to your eye?
01:10:10 Are you okay?
01:10:13 "Mr McAllister, somebody tore down
01:10:18 "Can I have an A?
01:10:23 Fuck them.
01:10:46 You've reached the Novotny's.
01:10:52 Why did you do that?
01:10:56 You ruined my life,
01:11:01 You ruined my life.
01:11:06 I'm sorry, I'm going nuts here.
01:11:11 I really think we should talk.
01:11:14 It's Jim. I love you.
01:11:24 We have an important announcement
01:11:33 Good morning, students.
01:11:36 It behoves me to inform you
01:11:42 Tammy Metzler has been determined
01:11:49 All other candidates are eligible,
01:11:58 When the time came to vote,
01:12:02 - Hi, Tracy.
01:12:21 - Ready, Phil?
01:12:31 Thanks, Phil.
01:12:37 Hey, Tracy.
01:12:44 - Well, good luck.
01:12:48 - You, too.
01:12:57 It's so weird. Do people
01:13:02 Looking at my own name...
01:13:06 I don't know... I just felt like
01:13:28 Okay, Mr M.
01:13:34 - Let's start counting.
01:13:40 You can do
01:13:44 Fine. Start with the president,
01:13:49 You have the key.
01:13:55 Right.
01:14:10 - Are you okay?
01:14:14 I'm fine. It's just a simple,
01:14:20 Some people get stung,
01:14:25 I'm pressed for time. I have other
01:14:30 Yeah, okay.
01:14:34 All right, I'll be right back.
01:14:41 You've reached the Novotny's.
01:14:47 It's me again.
01:14:52 If I could just hear your voice.
01:14:57 - What do you want, Jim?
01:15:00 - Yeah, I'm here.
01:15:05 - You know that's not true.
01:15:10 - We made a mistake.
01:15:16 - You took advantage of me.
01:15:23 You hugged me. You kissed me.
01:15:33 - Mr M, big day.
01:15:41 - What have you got?
01:15:47 - You've got to make your count.
01:15:51 I thought those were the rules.
01:15:55 We're not electing the fucking Pope.
01:16:04 It's a squeaker. I've got Tracy
01:16:19 Mr M...
01:16:23 Well, okay...
01:16:28 I guess I'd better do my count.
01:17:43 At the end of my count, I had
01:17:49 256 to 257. Tracy had won
01:17:58 I was about
01:18:09 The sight of Tracy affected me
01:18:14 Part of it was that
01:18:18 But mostly it was her face.
01:18:25 Who knew how far she'd go in life,
01:18:31 I had to stop her... Now.
01:19:08 Larry...
01:19:13 253, 245, 255.
01:19:17 I get the same as you, Jim.
01:19:22 - It doesn't make sense.
01:19:27 256 for Paul.
01:19:32 - And 290 disregards.
01:19:39 It doesn't add up. There were
01:19:43 - There must be two votes missing.
01:19:50 They were there.
01:19:54 - People make mistakes.
01:19:58 - They were there when you sat down.
01:20:03 - Every vote was accounted for.
01:20:31 I just want to let you know
01:20:37 - you've run a great campaign.
01:20:40 Thanks, Tracy.
01:20:47 Let's get started. When the winners
01:20:56 In a contest so well fought
01:21:02 Act surprised.
01:21:06 Be modest. Thank them
01:21:10 They're all highly qualified
01:21:15 - that we expect
01:21:19 The point of an election is to
01:21:24 We'll begin with the president.
01:21:27 This was
01:21:32 I'd like to announce the next
01:21:38 Paul Metzler.
01:21:54 Jeez, you guys, thanks!
01:21:59 Thanks. I promise to do my best.
01:22:53 Mr M is over there.
01:23:01 This is so wild. We came here
01:23:06 This is great.
01:23:10 - Dick Metzler.
01:23:13 Paul thinks the world of you.
01:23:17 You've really helped him out.
01:23:21 Paul doesn't need any help from me.
01:23:26 - We are.
01:23:30 I'm just finishing up.
01:23:35 Why don't you guys go sit down.
01:23:39 - I want to talk to Mr M.
01:23:45 - It was sure nice to meet you.
01:23:54 I have some ideas
01:23:59 We could have a carnival with rides,
01:24:05 On Halloween we could have
01:24:10 Not like those cheesy, bad ones.
01:24:15 For homecoming... Last year's theme
01:24:20 - This year...
01:24:27 Right now, I need to finish my pie
01:24:34 Okay. Sorry.
01:24:42 Do you think Tracy will be okay?
01:24:50 Don't worry about Tracy.
01:25:08 Oh, sweetheart...
01:25:13 Baby.
01:25:18 Take one of my pills.
01:25:23 Here.
01:25:29 Come on, baby.
01:25:33 Lie down.
01:25:38 Lie down. Good girl.
01:25:42 That's it, baby.
01:25:46 That's it, honey.
01:25:54 Maybe you needed
01:25:58 Or if you'd taken my suggestions
01:26:02 I don't know, we'll figure it out.
01:26:17 Diane... I've made a mistake.
01:26:30 Did you want the same room?
01:26:35 Yeah, okay.
01:27:07 The next day, I resolved
01:27:10 The way I saw it, getting kicked out
01:27:16 It was an opportunity. We needed
01:27:23 The election was behind me.
01:27:28 What harm had really been done?
01:27:37 Jim, Walt wants to see you.
01:27:41 Okay, thanks.
01:27:55 You rang?
01:28:00 Mr McAllister, I hope you can
01:28:43 - I.
01:28:47 - They.
01:28:52 Thank you.
01:28:56 Signor Presedente,
01:29:05 Dr Hendricks?
01:29:10 Come on in, son. We have something
01:29:15 - Is it about Tammy?
01:29:22 After Paul got the bad news,
01:29:27 It was simple. I offered
01:29:34 Very quietly, it was all over
01:29:42 Suddenly everyone knew who I was.
01:29:46 The teacher who tried to crush
01:29:50 All the good things I'd ever done
01:29:55 The wire services
01:29:59 It was the kind of absurd news item
01:30:05 Diane started divorce proceedings.
01:30:13 She took almost everything,
01:30:17 I got the car.
01:30:36 I realised it was time to get out
01:30:48 Senior year was great. I didn't get
01:30:53 - but I got elected homecoming king.
01:30:57 I got into Nebraska like I wanted.
01:31:00 At the end of the year, I threw
01:31:05 Shit, that was a good party!
01:31:08 The only bad thing was Lisa.
01:31:13 One minute we're in love,
01:31:19 I wonder what would have happened
01:31:24 Would my whole life be different?
01:31:30 Or maybe I'd be dead.
01:31:36 Catholic school was great.
01:31:41 The teachers kind of sucked,
01:31:45 But you could get away with murder.
01:31:49 The best thing about
01:32:10 Jennifer and I are soulmates.
01:32:19 Order! Order!
01:32:23 Senior year was very productive.
01:32:26 I was in the top seventh percentile
01:32:33 I got into Georgetown
01:32:40 Sometimes I got lonely and I'd think
01:32:45 Maybe it could have worked out.
01:32:53 Maybe he finally finished his novel.
01:32:57 I had a myriad of accomplishments
01:33:02 - but I just didn't feel right.
01:33:05 Everybody else seems so happy,
01:33:11 Hardly anybody signed mine.
01:33:14 As president, you'd think
01:33:26 As far as Mr McAllister
01:33:30 - I hardly thought about him at all.
01:33:33 Nobody had heard from him.
01:33:39 Tracy Enid Flick.
01:33:45 At Georgetown, I thought I'd finally
01:33:49 I was sure that finally
01:33:55 Excuse me, will you please be quiet!
01:34:00 It wasn't like that at all. They
01:34:06 I've come to accept that very few
01:34:12 We're solo flyers.
01:34:16 If you're going to be great,
01:34:23 What happens to a man
01:34:28 Everything he's worked for.
01:34:34 Driven from his home.
01:34:39 How can he survive?
01:34:44 Right this way.
01:34:46 New York City.
01:34:58 For centuries people have come
01:35:04 Now I am one of them. I'd always
01:35:10 All that excitement and culture.
01:35:15 Once in a while,
01:35:19 My apartment is a little small
01:35:26 - but it's got character,
01:35:32 And it's great not needing a car.
01:35:38 Some days, I even walk to work.
01:35:42 The job market is tight,
01:35:48 - I landed a job in the education
01:35:53 I'm teaching again.
01:35:55 When a school brings its students
01:36:00 - there's a staff of trained
01:36:07 I've started seeing someone new.
01:36:11 She works at the museum, too.
01:36:15 She's really different from Diane.
01:36:20 She just ended a relationship, too,
01:36:28 You might ask if I ever saw
01:36:37 I was down in Washington for
01:36:45 After an inspiring morning
01:36:49 - I was on my way
01:37:27 I'll never know if she saw me.
01:37:31 But just then, all the bad memories,
01:37:36 - it all came flooding back.
01:37:42 I wanted to run over there and
01:37:48 And how she'd cheated her way
01:37:52 But instead, I just stood there.
01:37:57 I realised I wasn't angry at her
01:38:04 When I think about my new life,
01:38:11 She probably still gets up early to
01:38:19 Where is she
01:38:24 What is she doing in that limo?
01:38:38 Hey, you!
01:38:42 You asshole!
01:38:44 That's all ancient history now.
01:38:48 That's what's great about America.
01:38:53 Would that make this
01:38:57 What's the difference
01:39:10 Anybody?
01:42:44 English subtitles - IFT
00:00:40 There's your culprit.
00:00:43 Linda had asked me to stop by
00:00:48 - Did you know Dave's a bed-wetter?
00:00:55 All his life.
00:01:01 - Is that still running clear?
00:01:05 Better let it run for a while.
00:01:08 Wait.
00:01:18 I guess you'd better get to work.
00:01:35 Thank you, Jim.
00:01:50 It just happened.
00:01:56 But once we started,
00:02:01 It was a miracle.
00:02:17 - Take me to that motel.
00:02:22 Come by after school.
00:02:27 - 3:25.
00:02:40 What had blossomed between Linda
00:02:45 For the first time in years,
00:03:18 - It's not fair.
00:03:24 It must be a mistake,
00:03:28 - Where the hell have you been?
00:03:33 - I don't teach until second period.
00:03:39 If Paul loses,
00:03:42 - Somebody tore down their posters.
00:03:48 - We'll get to the bottom of it.
00:03:53 - It was Tammy.
00:03:58 That speech she gave,
00:04:03 We'll get to the bottom of it.
00:04:10 Mr McAllister will handle
00:04:15 What's that?
00:04:27 Tracy.
00:04:33 Tracy, come on in.
00:04:36 Close the door behind you.
00:04:44 Have a seat.
00:04:50 You know why you're here.
00:04:55 If it's about the posters,
00:05:00 A travesty? That's interesting...
00:05:08 What?
00:05:11 Are you accusing me?
00:05:14 We've worked together
00:05:19 My own banner was torn down, too.
00:05:22 Were you in the Looking Glass
00:05:27 I was. Mr Pecharda let me in.
00:05:31 With my many responsibilities
00:05:37 - I left early, around 6:30.
00:05:43 How do you know what time
00:05:48 I don't,
00:05:52 I'm giving you helpful information.
00:05:55 We should be trying to figure out
00:06:00 Okay, who do you think did it?
00:06:06 It could have been any of the
00:06:11 Like Rick Thieson
00:06:15 What about Tammy Metzler?
00:06:21 You're a very intelligent girl,
00:06:27 But being smart and doing whatever
00:06:32 - and stepping on other people...
00:06:36 There's more to life than that.
00:06:43 Why are you lecturing me?
00:06:47 This isn't the time or the place
00:06:51 But for one example,
00:06:55 - made a very big mistake.
00:06:59 I think the lesson here
00:07:04 We have to learn that our actions
00:07:13 Maybe if certain
00:07:17 - hadn't acted like little babies,
00:07:23 I agree. And certain young
00:07:27 - should thank their lucky stars -
00:07:31 - that the entire school didn't find
00:07:35 - that could have ruined their
00:07:40 Certain older people shouldn't
00:07:46 Some can't even
00:07:50 And slanderous accusations shouldn't
00:07:55 - whose mothers are paralegal
00:08:02 If you want to keep questioning me,
00:08:11 - You wanted to see me?
00:08:16 - Is this about the posters?
00:08:22 Okay, because I know who did it.
00:08:25 So I'll just be outside.
00:08:31 Don't go anywhere, Tracy.
00:08:37 This ought to be good.
00:08:42 What do you have to tell me?
00:08:45 This is hard for me,
00:08:50 - What is it, Tammy?
00:08:57 - I did it.
00:09:01 Yesterday. Sunday.
00:09:03 - How did you get in?
00:09:09 - Which door?
00:09:13 - I don't believe you.
00:09:44 Tracy, it looks like today
00:09:48 You're off the hook.
00:10:04 I told you.
00:10:09 Okay, easy now.
00:10:15 The rest of the day was unbearable.
00:10:21 I couldn't wait to get out of there.
00:10:25 I wanted everything to be perfect
00:10:30 I decided to give myself some time
00:10:34 Pop-quiz, everybody.
00:10:37 Put your stuff away. If you've done
00:10:43 I had 48 minutes to arrange it all.
00:10:46 If you finish early, sit quietly.
00:12:09 Okay everybody, pass them forward.
00:12:15 See you on Wednesday.
00:12:59 Linda.
00:13:10 Linda!
00:13:38 Jesus!
00:13:51 You've reached the Novotny's.
00:13:57 Linda, it's me.
00:14:03 It's 4:32.
00:14:11 I waited there,
00:14:17 I'm at the place we talked about.
00:14:22 Suite 246.
00:14:24 And I'm here.
00:14:30 So I hope you get here soon.
00:14:40 I just don't get it.
00:14:43 What you have against your mother
00:14:49 Your mother's upset,
00:14:54 Your behaviour keeps getting
00:14:58 Who knows
00:15:03 I just had a long conversation
00:15:08 I phoned him at home.
00:15:11 He doesn't want you back at Carver.
00:15:16 And I don't blame him.
00:15:19 Tammy, your father and I
00:15:24 You're going to Immaculate Heart.
00:15:28 Maybe the nuns
00:15:32 Is that funny?
00:17:06 Okay.
00:17:59 Dear Lord Jesus,
00:18:03 - but I must insist you
00:18:07 I deserve it and
00:18:11 I realise it was your divine hand
00:18:18 Make sure you put me in office,
00:18:24 Amen.
00:18:26 God, I don't believe in you, but
00:18:33 What do I want?
00:18:35 I want Lisa to realise what a bitch
00:18:43 I want Paul to win the election
00:18:49 I also want a pair
00:18:52 And someday I want to be
00:18:58 Dear God, you've given me
00:19:02 Good health,
00:19:06 - and what I'm told
00:19:10 But I'm worried about Tammy. I can't
00:19:16 But sometimes she gets so angry.
00:19:21 She's so smart and sensitive,
00:19:25 I'm nervous
00:19:28 I want to win,
00:19:32 You'll decide
00:19:36 Forgive me for my sins,
00:19:47 Linda never came home. I waited
00:20:09 Oh, God.
00:20:43 On election day, my mum and I
00:20:56 Good morning, Mr M.
00:21:02 It looks like you
00:21:12 What happened to your eye?
00:21:19 Are you okay?
00:21:22 "Mr McAllister, somebody tore down
00:21:28 "Can I have an A?
00:21:32 Fuck them.
00:21:55 You've reached the Novotny's.
00:22:01 Why did you do that?
00:22:06 You ruined my life,
00:22:11 You ruined my life.
00:22:15 I'm sorry, I'm going nuts here.
00:22:21 I really think we should talk.
00:22:24 It's Jim. I love you.
00:22:33 We have an important announcement
00:22:43 Good morning, students.
00:22:45 It behoves me to inform you
00:22:51 Tammy Metzler has been determined
00:22:58 All other candidates are eligible,
00:23:07 When the time came to vote,
00:23:12 - Hi, Tracy.
00:23:30 - Ready, Phil?
00:23:41 Thanks, Phil.
00:23:46 Hey, Tracy.
00:23:53 - Well, good luck.
00:23:57 - You, too.
00:24:07 It's so weird. Do people
00:24:11 Looking at my own name...
00:24:15 I don't know... I just felt like
00:24:37 Okay, Mr M.
00:24:43 - Let's start counting.
00:24:49 You can do
00:24:53 Fine. Start with the president,
00:24:59 You have the key.
00:25:04 Right.
00:25:19 - Are you okay?
00:25:24 I'm fine. It's just a simple,
00:25:30 Some people get stung,
00:25:34 I'm pressed for time. I have other
00:25:39 Yeah, okay.
00:25:44 All right, I'll be right back.
00:25:50 You've reached the Novotny's.
00:25:56 It's me again.
00:26:01 If I could just hear your voice.
00:26:06 - What do you want, Jim?
00:26:10 - Yeah, I'm here.
00:26:14 - You know that's not true.
00:26:20 - We made a mistake.
00:26:25 - You took advantage of me.
00:26:32 You hugged me. You kissed me.
00:26:42 - Mr M, big day.
00:26:51 - What have you got?
00:26:56 - You've got to make your count.
00:27:00 I thought those were the rules.
00:27:05 We're not electing the fucking Pope.
00:27:14 It's a squeaker. I've got Tracy
00:27:29 Mr M...
00:27:33 Well, okay...
00:27:38 I guess I'd better do my count.
00:28:53 At the end of my count, I had
00:28:59 256 to 257. Tracy had won
00:29:07 I was about
00:29:19 The sight of Tracy affected me
00:29:24 Part of it was that
00:29:28 But mostly it was her face.
00:29:34 Who knew how far she'd go in life,
00:29:41 I had to stop her... Now.
00:30:17 Larry...
00:30:23 253, 245, 255.
00:30:26 I get the same as you, Jim.
00:30:31 - It doesn't make sense.
00:30:37 256 for Paul.
00:30:42 - And 290 disregards.
00:30:48 It doesn't add up. There were
00:30:53 - There must be two votes missing.
00:30:59 They were there.
00:31:04 - People make mistakes.
00:31:07 - They were there when you sat down.
00:31:12 - Every vote was accounted for.
00:31:41 I just want to let you know
00:31:47 - you've run a great campaign.
00:31:50 Thanks, Tracy.
00:31:57 Let's get started. When the winners
00:32:06 In a contest so well fought
00:32:12 Act surprised.
00:32:16 Be modest. Thank them
00:32:20 They're all highly qualified
00:32:25 - that we expect
00:32:29 The point of an election is to
00:32:34 We'll begin with the president.
00:32:37 This was
00:32:42 I'd like to announce the next
00:32:47 Paul Metzler.
00:33:03 Jeez, you guys, thanks!
00:33:08 Thanks. I promise to do my best.
00:34:02 Mr M is over there.
00:34:11 This is so wild. We came here
00:34:15 This is great.
00:34:19 - Dick Metzler.
00:34:22 Paul thinks the world of you.
00:34:27 You've really helped him out.
00:34:30 Paul doesn't need any help from me.
00:34:36 - We are.
00:34:39 I'm just finishing up.
00:34:45 Why don't you guys go sit down.
00:34:49 - I want to talk to Mr M.
00:34:55 - It was sure nice to meet you.
00:35:04 I have some ideas
00:35:08 We could have a carnival with rides,
00:35:14 On Halloween we could have
00:35:19 Not like those cheesy, bad ones.
00:35:24 For homecoming... Last year's theme
00:35:29 - This year...
00:35:37 Right now, I need to finish my pie
00:35:44 Okay. Sorry.
00:35:52 Do you think Tracy will be okay?
00:36:00 Don't worry about Tracy.
00:36:18 Oh, sweetheart...
00:36:22 Baby.
00:36:27 Take one of my pills.
00:36:32 Here.
00:36:38 Come on, baby.
00:36:42 Lie down.
00:36:47 Lie down. Good girl.
00:36:52 That's it, baby.
00:36:56 That's it, honey.
00:37:03 Maybe you needed
00:37:07 Or if you'd taken my suggestions
00:37:12 I don't know, we'll figure it out.
00:37:27 Diane... I've made a mistake.
00:37:40 Did you want the same room?
00:37:44 Yeah, okay.
00:38:16 The next day, I resolved
00:38:20 The way I saw it, getting kicked out
00:38:26 It was an opportunity. We needed
00:38:33 The election was behind me.
00:38:38 What harm had really been done?
00:38:47 Jim, Walt wants to see you.
00:38:51 Okay, thanks.
00:39:05 You rang?
00:39:10 Mr McAllister, I hope you can
00:39:52 - I.
00:39:56 - They.
00:40:01 Thank you.
00:40:05 Signor Presedente,
00:40:14 Dr Hendricks?
00:40:19 Come on in, son. We have something
00:40:24 - Is it about Tammy?
00:40:31 After Paul got the bad news,
00:40:37 It was simple. I offered
00:40:44 Very quietly, it was all over
00:40:52 Suddenly everyone knew who I was.
00:40:55 The teacher who tried to crush
00:41:00 All the good things I'd ever done
00:41:05 The wire services
00:41:08 It was the kind of absurd news item
00:41:14 Diane started divorce proceedings.
00:41:22 She took almost everything,
00:41:26 I got the car.
00:41:45 I realised it was time to get out
00:41:57 Senior year was great. I didn't get
00:42:02 - but I got elected homecoming king.
00:42:06 I got into Nebraska like I wanted.
00:42:10 At the end of the year, I threw
00:42:15 Shit, that was a good party!
00:42:18 The only bad thing was Lisa.
00:42:23 One minute we're in love,
00:42:29 I wonder what would have happened
00:42:33 Would my whole life be different?
00:42:40 Or maybe I'd be dead.
00:42:45 Catholic school was great.
00:42:50 The teachers kind of sucked,
00:42:55 But you could get away with murder.
00:42:58 The best thing about
00:43:19 Jennifer and I are soulmates.
00:43:28 Order! Order!
00:43:32 Senior year was very productive.
00:43:35 I was in the top seventh percentile
00:43:42 I got into Georgetown
00:43:49 Sometimes I got lonely and I'd think
00:43:55 Maybe it could have worked out.
00:44:02 Maybe he finally finished his novel.
00:44:07 I had a myriad of accomplishments
00:44:11 - but I just didn't feel right.
00:44:14 Everybody else seems so happy,
00:44:21 Hardly anybody signed mine.
00:44:23 As president, you'd think
00:44:36 As far as Mr McAllister
00:44:40 - I hardly thought about him at all.
00:44:43 Nobody had heard from him.
00:44:49 Tracy Enid Flick.
00:44:54 At Georgetown, I thought I'd finally
00:44:59 I was sure that finally
00:45:05 Excuse me, will you please be quiet!
00:45:09 It wasn't like that at all. They
00:45:16 I've come to accept that very few
00:45:22 We're solo flyers.
00:45:26 If you're going to be great,
00:45:33 What happens to a man
00:45:38 Everything he's worked for.
00:45:44 Driven from his home.
00:45:49 How can he survive?
00:45:53 Right this way.
00:45:55 New York City.
00:46:07 For centuries people have come
00:46:14 Now I am one of them. I'd always
00:46:19 All that excitement and culture.
00:46:24 Once in a while,
00:46:29 My apartment is a little small
00:46:36 - but it's got character,
00:46:42 And it's great not needing a car.
00:46:48 Some days, I even walk to work.
00:46:51 The job market is tight,
00:46:57 - I landed a job in the education
00:47:02 I'm teaching again.
00:47:05 When a school brings its students
00:47:10 - there's a staff of trained
00:47:17 I've started seeing someone new.
00:47:21 She works at the museum, too.
00:47:24 She's really different from Diane.
00:47:29 She just ended a relationship, too,
00:47:38 You might ask if I ever saw
00:47:46 I was down in Washington for
00:47:55 After an inspiring morning
00:47:58 - I was on my way
00:48:37 I'll never know if she saw me.
00:48:41 But just then, all the bad memories,
00:48:46 - it all came flooding back.
00:48:51 I wanted to run over there and
00:48:58 And how she'd cheated her way
00:49:02 But instead, I just stood there.
00:49:06 I realised I wasn't angry at her
00:49:14 When I think about my new life,
00:49:21 She probably still gets up early to
00:49:29 Where is she
00:49:33 What is she doing in that limo?
00:49:48 Hey, you!
00:49:51 You asshole!
00:49:54 That's all ancient history now.
00:49:58 That's what's great about America.
00:50:02 Would that make this
00:50:06 What's the difference
00:50:20 Anybody?
