1. Uhh. I'm running behind
for my Booster Club meeting.
Copy !req
2. Now, I'll probably have to sit
at the wobbly table.
Copy !req
3. Hello?
Copy !req
4. Well, Substitute Teacher
of the Year Peggy Hill.
Copy !req
5. Uh-huh, go on...
Copy !req
6. The high school?
Copy !req
7. Teaching? Me?
Copy !req
8. Wait, who is this really?
Copy !req
9. Really?
Copy !req
10. Today, yes, of course!
Copy !req
11. Oh, no, no... thank you!
Copy !req
12. Guess who is subbing for high school
geometry teacher Tammy Charbonneau
Copy !req
13. while she takes an eight-week
doctor-ordered bedrest maternity leave?
Copy !req
14. Me, Peggy Hill!
Copy !req
15. That was going to be my guess, exactly!
Copy !req
16. This is the major leagues, Hank.
Copy !req
17. The Bigs, the Show.
Copy !req
18. Oh, my God...
Copy !req
19. eight weeks, do you know what this means?
Copy !req
20. It means that I have a pretty good chance
Copy !req
21. of actually learning their names!
Copy !req
22. Everything's happening so fast!
Copy !req
23. It's beautiful, isn't it?
Copy !req
24. Hmm, Tammy Charbonneau.
Copy !req
25. Peggy Hill.
Copy !req
26. Excusame,
Copy !req
27. Senora Miriam Caney?
Copy !req
28. "Me lamo" Peggy Hill.
Copy !req
29. I have followed your career
with such interest.
Copy !req
30. Seventeen years
teaching high school "Espanol."
Copy !req
31. You have never once gotten sick.
Copy !req
32. Or if you have gotten sick,
you have never called in sick.
Copy !req
33. Either way, I am subbing geometry.
Copy !req
34. Well, bienvenidos a Arlen High!
Copy !req
35. My, what lovely spectacles.
Copy !req
36. The better to see
promising new talent with.
Copy !req
37. Oh.
Copy !req
38. MAN Number 33
Copy !req
39. David Kaliiki-Alii, the Flyin' Hawaiian!
Copy !req
40. He says aloha to the end zone and aloha
Copy !req
41. to the Temple Tigers.
Copy !req
42. It means both hello and good-bye.
Copy !req
43. My wife is Polynesian.
Copy !req
44. Arlen High is unstoppable!
Copy !req
45. All right!
Copy !req
46. Ah, first order of Booster Club business,
Copy !req
47. how's the programs coming
for next week's games, Terrell?
Copy !req
48. As you all know,
the money from the programs
Copy !req
49. help pay for the cheerleaders' shoes.
Copy !req
50. Every business owner here
Copy !req
51. has taken out ad space
in this week's program
Copy !req
52. except Dale Gribble of Dale's Dead Bug.
Copy !req
53. My secretary messed up again?
Copy !req
54. She is so fired.
Copy !req
55. and the man walked
around the world and said to the king,
Copy !req
56. "Sir, I come from France."
Copy !req
57. Circumference!
Copy !req
58. You see?
Copy !req
59. Hey, dude.
Copy !req
60. And you must be David Kaliiki-Alii.
Copy !req
61. Ah, yup. I guess
you might have heard of me.
Copy !req
62. Hey, how's it going?
Copy !req
63. Well, yes, you are the person
who did not answer "present"
Copy !req
64. when I took roll 28 minutes ago.
Copy !req
65. Okay, I see from Ms. Charbonneau's notes
that you all have some homework due.
Copy !req
66. So, I'll start with you, David.
Copy !req
67. Uh, I didn't do it.
Copy !req
68. I'll just...
I'll take a "C" or a "B" or whatever.
Copy !req
69. I am not going to tell you
how to do your job.
Copy !req
70. Peggy!
Copy !req
71. Hurry up and sit down
before the PE coaches get here.
Copy !req
72. Oh, it gets in your clothes.
Copy !req
73. So, how's your day going?
Copy !req
74. Glorious.
Copy !req
75. Although, can I ask you if you know
a student named David Kaliiki-Alii?
Copy !req
76. The Flyin' Hawaiian?
Copy !req
77. He runs the 40 in 4.5.
Copy !req
78. Yes, anyway, I checked David's records,
Copy !req
79. and he has a "B-plus" average overall,
Copy !req
80. but he seems to have trouble
applying himself in geometry.
Copy !req
81. Marlon Atwater,
Assistant Drivers Ed-slash-Health.
Copy !req
82. Peggy, David is our star fullback.
Copy !req
83. He doesn't have a lot of time to study
so we cut him some slack.
Copy !req
84. At Tom Landry Middle School,
we would never think
Copy !req
85. of extending special privileges
to the athletes.
Copy !req
86. Peggy, this isn't middle school.
Copy !req
87. This is real life.
Copy !req
88. We've got college football scouts
at our games,
Copy !req
89. and they're not coming to watch
David draw a triangle.
Copy !req
90. Oh, don't worry, Peggy.
Copy !req
91. David Kaliiki-Alii is unteachable anyway.
Copy !req
92. Unteachable?
Copy !req
93. I spent six weeks in Health
trying to get him to brush up and down...
Copy !req
94. He's like a wall.
Copy !req
95. and he continued to sleep peacefully.
Copy !req
96. It was pure chaos.
Copy !req
97. Well, how about that.
Copy !req
98. Your first day on campus,
and you already met David Kaliiki-Alii!
Copy !req
99. He's the Flyin' Hawaiian!
Copy !req
100. Mmm, if I were two years younger...
Copy !req
101. Well, first, he is your age,
Copy !req
102. and second,
David is considered a special case.
Copy !req
103. They call him "unteachable."
Copy !req
104. Well, he can't be good at everything.
Copy !req
105. Well, you'd be surprised, Bobby.
Copy !req
106. He plays offense, defense,
and returns punts.
Copy !req
107. Well, it looks like Luanne isn't
the only one with a crush on David.
Copy !req
108. But you know what?
He's just another student to me,
Copy !req
109. no different from the nerds
or the suck-ups.
Copy !req
110. And I have decided to give that boy
the high school education he deserves.
Copy !req
111. So, it may only be a theory...
Copy !req
112. but it will, in fact,
be on next week's mid-term.
Copy !req
113. You get it?
Copy !req
114. Oh. Oh! Oh, wait. David.
Honey, can you spare a moment?
Copy !req
115. I wanted to talk to you
about your classwork.
Copy !req
116. I have noticed that you have a zero grade.
Copy !req
117. You have no homework points
and no participation points.
Copy !req
118. - Uh-huh.
- I would like to tutor you after class.
Copy !req
119. I have football practice after class.
Copy !req
120. Oh.
Copy !req
121. How about geometry practice after that?
Copy !req
122. With a playbook by "Coach" Peggy Hill?
Copy !req
123. Umm... okay.
Copy !req
124. Oh, and David...
Copy !req
125. I'm glad we got to rap.
Copy !req
126. Yoo-hoo, David!
Copy !req
127. David.
Copy !req
128. David!
Copy !req
129. David! David!
Copy !req
130. - David! David!
- Huh?
Copy !req
131. David!
Copy !req
132. You forgot your notes.
Copy !req
133. You know, you run fast.
Copy !req
134. Stop!
Copy !req
135. Okay, please hand in your mid-terms.
Copy !req
136. David, I just want to say that
it has been a pleasure educating you.
Copy !req
137. I think I have learned
just as much from you
Copy !req
138. as you have from me.
Copy !req
139. Well...
Copy !req
140. Okay.
Copy !req
141. Uh, okay.
Copy !req
142. A quarter-inch to the left...
Copy !req
143. an eighth-inch back to the right...
Copy !req
144. No, no, an eighth...
Hank!
Copy !req
145. We just lost our star fullback!
Copy !req
146. What? What happened?
Copy !req
147. Peggy Hill happened.
Copy !req
148. "No pass, no play"!
Copy !req
149. She flunked David.
Copy !req
150. Now he's out for three weeks
academic suspension.
Copy !req
151. Do you know what happens
in those three weeks?
Copy !req
152. San Marcos, Belton, McMaynerbury.
Copy !req
153. McMaynerbury, Hank!
Copy !req
154. Now, hold on.
Copy !req
155. I'm sure it was just an accident.
Copy !req
156. No, Hank... this is an accident.
Copy !req
157. Now you got two messes to clean up!
Copy !req
158. How could you flunk the Flyin' Hawaiian?
Copy !req
159. Haven't you ever heard
of "No pass, no play"?
Copy !req
160. Do not try to pin all of this on me.
Copy !req
161. I only did the "No pass."
Copy !req
162. What happens after that
is none of my business.
Copy !req
163. I want you to change his grade.
Copy !req
164. If I were to give David a passing grade,
Copy !req
165. that would be a failure on my part,
Copy !req
166. and I am not failing.
Copy !req
167. I am doing "A" work.
Copy !req
168. This is crunch time.
Copy !req
169. We're going up against San Marcos,
Belton and McMaynerbury.
Copy !req
170. McMaynerbury!
Copy !req
171. We need him to go to State.
Copy !req
172. Well, I am sorry, Hank,
Copy !req
173. but teaching high school
is my going to State.
Copy !req
174. Uh, no offense, Peggy,
Copy !req
175. but I don't see anybody renting buses
to go to your State.
Copy !req
176. Hey, guys.
Copy !req
177. You know,
the strangest thing happened today.
Copy !req
178. A giant rat crawled
into my "in" box and died.
Copy !req
179. What happened to your frames?
Copy !req
180. They suddenly went out of style.
Copy !req
181. This is about David, isn't it?
Copy !req
182. David did failing work.
Copy !req
183. He got a failing grade. Of all people,
Copy !req
184. I would expect my fellow educators
to support me.
Copy !req
185. You wanna change the world?
Copy !req
186. Go back to middle school.
Copy !req
187. It's too late here.
Copy !req
188. And a third fumble
from senior Charlie Macon
Copy !req
189. who was named Arlen Scholar
Athlete of the Year.
Copy !req
190. He's all yours, Princeton!
Copy !req
191. All right, we can absorb this loss,
Copy !req
192. and it wasn't a conference game,
Copy !req
193. and we'll probably squeak by next week
Copy !req
194. because Belton's still reeling
from the drug bust,
Copy !req
195. and then it's McMaynerbury,
Copy !req
196. and there's not a single addict
on that mother-loving team!
Copy !req
197. Digby, there's got to be something
in those law books of yours.
Copy !req
198. Look under "loophole."
Copy !req
199. What if we got him a work study
Copy !req
200. like I had at the print shop
my junior year?
Copy !req
201. Yeah, David drops Mrs. Hill's class
Copy !req
202. takes a work-study
at Terrell's print shop.
Copy !req
203. Hey, look, I got Billy breathing
down my neck as it is.
Copy !req
204. I don't need another punk
in there making me look bad.
Copy !req
205. I volunteer Strickland Propane
to jump through this little loophole.
Copy !req
206. Now, David can work for me
Copy !req
207. 'til the swallows
get back from Capi-strami.
Copy !req
208. Hank, can you slap together
a make-up mid-term?
Copy !req
209. I'll do it quickly,
but it won't be "slapped together."
Copy !req
210. And the vaporization rate
Copy !req
211. of a 100-pound propane cylinder
at 70 degrees Fahrenheit
Copy !req
212. is how many BTU's per hour?
Copy !req
213. Could I have a chair?
Copy !req
214. "Propane 101"?
Copy !req
215. Yeah, it's a work-study thing
Copy !req
216. approved by the Board of Education.
Copy !req
217. So, you and your waffle boys
Copy !req
218. did an end run around Peggy Hill.
Copy !req
219. Peggy, years from now no one will remember
what a hexagon is.
Copy !req
220. But you win State and...
Copy !req
221. well, that goes up on the water tower.
Copy !req
222. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
223. And how is David doing?
Copy !req
224. Oh, David's doing great.
Copy !req
225. He knows more about propane
Copy !req
226. than any Hawaiian I've ever met.
Copy !req
227. He does?
Copy !req
228. Oh, what was I thinking?
Copy !req
229. I am in over my head.
Copy !req
230. What made me think
that I could teach high school?
Copy !req
231. I so wanted to be
like Welcome Back, Kotter.
Copy !req
232. Now, I'm like the real Gabe Kaplan.
Copy !req
233. I am a loser.
Copy !req
234. Okay, the test is going to be
one essay question,
Copy !req
235. open Serviceman's Manual.
Copy !req
236. Just tell me what you love most
about propane.
Copy !req
237. Ooh, nice handoff.
Copy !req
238. Just like the one you did three weeks ago
Copy !req
239. in the, uh, game...
Copy !req
240. All right, let's see what we got here.
Copy !req
241. Okay...
Copy !req
242. "Strickland Propene does not have
a vending machine.
Copy !req
243. It smells, and I thank God
every day I get home
Copy !req
244. that I didn't get exploded.
Copy !req
245. The end."
Copy !req
246. May God have mercy on me.
Copy !req
247. David passed, didn't he?
Copy !req
248. Uh, oh, yeah.
Copy !req
249. Yeah, I guess he did pass.
Copy !req
250. - I gave him an "A."
- Hmm.
Copy !req
251. So coupled with my "F",
Copy !req
252. your "A" brings him
to a respectable passing "C."
Copy !req
253. Well, good for you,
Copy !req
254. good for David, good for Arlen football.
Copy !req
255. Everybody's a winner.
Copy !req
256. Yeah, though, uh...
Copy !req
257. the principal kind of threw out your "F",
Copy !req
258. so right now he's on Honor Roll.
Copy !req
259. Uh, I just wanted you
to hear that from me.
Copy !req
260. All I'm saying is you have
the tendencies of a Capricorn.
Copy !req
261. All right, all right.
Copy !req
262. Eh-eh!
Copy !req
263. I will not have a respected educator
bend over for his own beer.
Copy !req
264. Make Peggy do it.
Copy !req
265. She's got to be good for something.
Copy !req
266. Now, that is not fair, Dale.
Copy !req
267. Peggy did the best she could.
Copy !req
268. Which was crappy.
Copy !req
269. So, I'm afraid I will have to take
an emergency medical leave.
Copy !req
270. Well, I have diagnosed myself
as having the early stages
Copy !req
271. of single-digit-carpal-tunnel-syndrome.
Copy !req
272. Or as I call it, "chalk finger."
Copy !req
273. David failed that test.
Copy !req
274. His essay made me want to vomit...
Copy !req
275. which I did,
Copy !req
276. but I gave him that "A"
to get us to State.
Copy !req
277. Hank Hill, I am speechless.
Copy !req
278. I literally have nothing to say.
Copy !req
279. Not one word.
Copy !req
280. Nada.
Copy !req
281. Zilch.
Copy !req
282. Zero.
Copy !req
283. I don't know what you're waiting for.
Copy !req
284. Get this beautiful human being
some waffles.
Copy !req
285. Way to go, Hank!
Copy !req
286. Get her out of here!
Copy !req
287. David Kaliiki-Alii received an "A"
on his propane exam.
Copy !req
288. - Woo-hoo!
- All right!
Copy !req
289. But he deserved an "F."
Copy !req
290. Long live Hank!
Copy !req
291. Now, my wife, Peggy...
Copy !req
292. Now, now, hold on, hold on.
Copy !req
293. Sure, a week ago,
I would have been booing my wife
Copy !req
294. right along with you guys.
Copy !req
295. You were, Hank!
Copy !req
296. Uh, yeah.
Copy !req
297. But, what I realized is
that she was right all along.
Copy !req
298. It's time to ground the Flyin' Hawaiian.
Copy !req
299. I'm giving him an "F."
Copy !req
300. Uh-uh, too late.
Copy !req
301. I already turned in the sign-off sheet
and the grade.
Copy !req
302. David is in.
Copy !req
303. Sir, did you read that essay?
Copy !req
304. Aw, it's a classic.
Copy !req
305. "I thank God every day
I didn't get exploded."
Copy !req
306. It gets to you.
Copy !req
307. Excusame, but I cannot
let you ruin that boy's life.
Copy !req
308. I think that there might be people
Copy !req
309. who would be interested
in the fact that David
Copy !req
310. is being deprived of an education.
Copy !req
311. Such as his mother...
Copy !req
312. and the school board,
Copy !req
313. and the Secretary of Education...
Copy !req
314. Whoa, whoa, whoa, right there.
Copy !req
315. Wait a minute, look, look...
Copy !req
316. We don't want to go dragging
the boy's mother into this.
Copy !req
317. I'm sure we can work something out.
Copy !req
318. Hmm?
Copy !req
319. You may keep your creamy bribe.
Copy !req
320. We are going to his mother.
Copy !req
321. And we are going to tell on you.
Copy !req
322. The Booster Club is cheating David
out of an education,
Copy !req
323. and what is worse,
David is cheating himself.
Copy !req
324. I'd like to show you something.
Copy !req
325. David is learning disabled.
Copy !req
326. He studies every day as soon
as he gets home from practice
Copy !req
327. until he falls asleep every night.
Copy !req
328. I usually come in and find him
slumped over his desk
Copy !req
329. using that playbook
you made him as a pillow.
Copy !req
330. He's a good boy.
Copy !req
331. He just has trouble retaining anything.
Copy !req
332. He deserves an "A" for effort, though.
Copy !req
333. No wonder even I couldn't teach him.
Copy !req
334. Sports is all God gave David.
Copy !req
335. And it's the only way
he'll get to college.
Copy !req
336. Well, then, uh...
Copy !req
337. we're sorry to have disturbed you,
Mrs. Kaliiki-Alii.
Copy !req
338. And the Oscar
Copy !req
339. goes to... me!
Copy !req
340. Come on out, fellows.
Copy !req
341. Wooo-heee!
Copy !req
342. We smoked 'em good.
Copy !req
343. Bought it hook, line, and sinker!
Copy !req
344. Thanks to you, Mrs. K-A.
Copy !req
345. Hey, what's all this crap?
Copy !req
346. Where's all my Swanks?
Copy !req
347. We kept you in the game, stud.
Copy !req
348. Hey, hey, what's going on?
Copy !req
349. I know all my ABC's!
Copy !req
350. Well, the Hills were going
to turn you in for flunking.
Copy !req
351. We told them you were a slow-poke.
Copy !req
352. I'm not stupid!
Copy !req
353. I can't believe you did this.
Copy !req
354. It's so, so, stupid!
Copy !req
355. David, "stupid" is going
to get you to college.
Copy !req
356. I'll tell you what's stupid!
Copy !req
357. Me giving you that Trans Am
if you ain't gonna drive us to State!
Copy !req
358. - Hey, Mrs. Hill.
- Oh, no. No, David.
Copy !req
359. The pep rally is down the hallway, honey.
Copy !req
360. Wait, did you poop yourself?
Copy !req
361. I deserve that.
Copy !req
362. I guess if I'd worked harder,
Copy !req
363. you guys wouldn't be so willing to believe
I was learning disabled.
Copy !req
364. You're not?
Copy !req
365. But... but that explained everything.
Copy !req
366. It was all a sham.
Copy !req
367. My mom and the Booster Club cooked it up.
Copy !req
368. Wait, "sham"...
that's the right word, right?
Copy !req
369. Yes, but I would've said "scheme."
Copy !req
370. It conveys more sneakiness.
Copy !req
371. Yeah, well,
Copy !req
372. I've been thinking about this, uh,
"no pass, no play" stuff.
Copy !req
373. If I don't pass...
then I should "no play."
Copy !req
374. Really?
Copy !req
375. I probably should have something
to fall back on, anyway.
Copy !req
376. I mean, the odds of me
not making pro are, what, 50-50?
Copy !req
377. So, what do you say you teach me
geometry before the game?
Copy !req
378. I am so proud of you, David,
Copy !req
379. but I could not even teach Albert Einstein
all of geometry in an afternoon
Copy !req
380. even if it meant that
Einstein's team could go to State.
Copy !req
381. Wait, wait.
Copy !req
382. Maybe there is something
you can learn in an afternoon.
Copy !req
383. so, you see, propane is a liquid,
Copy !req
384. but it comes out as a gas.
Copy !req
385. What you need, David,
Copy !req
386. is a way of associating the lesson
Copy !req
