Be seated! Be seated!

You're five minutes late again for the lesson.

- Sorry, sir. - Sit down.

Sir, Short Necmi has put grass on my desk again.

- So what? - He means that I am...

- What? - A cow, sir.

Aren't you called İnek [=cow] Şaban?

- Be quiet! Did you check who's present? - I did, sir.

Don't let me count one by one now. Is Ferit present?

- I am, sir! - Good.

Your presence means all the class is here.

Tell me the subject of our last lesson?

- I wasn't present last lesson. - You never are, are you?

Who knows the subject of our last lesson?

- Answer! Come on. - You told us about the mammals, sir.

Good boy, sit down. No one listens in this class except you.

What did we say? One; the mammals live on land, in sea and air.

I prepared to cheat for an exam but he's doing a lesson instead.

Two. The mammals have teeth in their jaws, three.

They feed their offspring with milk, four.

Some mammals feed on meat, others on grass.

- Like you. - Come on!

- Necmi, stand up. - Yes, sir.

- What was I talking about? - The mammals, sir.

- How many kinds of mammals are there? - Three kinds, sir.

Upright, wrinkled, saggy.

Sit down, you nasty! You tell us Ferit, come on.

There are two kinds sir; big ones and small ones.

- Sit down! You tell? Yes, you. - Me?

Sir, there are two kinds of mammals. Ones with bra and others without bra.

Sit down! I'll show you with and without bra!

Şaban, tell us, what do the mammals feed on?

- They feed by their mouths, sir. - No, not that, what do they eat?

They feed on what they get, they're very obese, you know!

- They eat meat. - What else?

- Vegetables, sir. - Look, don't make me angry.

- Say grass. - They eat grass.

The ones like him eat shit.

What is it? Why are you laughing? What's so funny?

- You'll see. - Come on!

You're up to something there again.

Ferit, give us an example of a flying mammal.

Flying mammal... Stewardess.

Slow down, you'll trample us!

Hope the new vice-principal would come and put them into some order.

Shorty, why did you put grass on my desk again?

- I thought you could put up with jokes. - This is horseplay though.

Come on Shorty, kiss the Cow and be friends again.

- Come on, there's a match for compote. - Don't forgive him so easily, Cow!

Right! Give me a cigarette, Shorty.

You're causing too much expenses, nimble.

We won't be able to smoke any more, the new vice-principal is coming.

We know! What if he does, you're such cowards!

The principal's coming! Put out the ciggies!

No principal, nothing. I was just joking!

- That's what I call horseplay. - No, this is is cowplay!

To get to the Adana lowland from Mid-Anatolia...

...one passes through a natural passage in the Taurus Mountains.

- You, with the glasses, what are you talking? - Nothing, sir.

- So, what was I telling? - I'm sure you were telling something, sir.

- What? - I'm saying the weather got warmer, sir.

Okay well done. Yes, this road...

- Are you nuts? Cemil's position was offside. - The referee's fault.

- C 2. B 4. A 4. - Missed.

- C 3. E 3. K 7. - Missed.

My dear Şaban, my sweetie. I can't resist your wild charm any more.

- Quite, he'll hear. - He won't, he's a cow.

Let's meet soon Şaban. Skip the school today.

- I'm ready for the match already. - See you after lunch.

...the railroad passes valley via tunnels.

Şaban the Cow won't play in the same team with Shorty.

What were you talking there? Tell us the biggest pass of Mediterranean region?

Karakoy Passage, sir. There are also Sarachane and Aksaray Passages.

Well done, sit down. The main rivers of the Mediterranean Region..

We'll eat the compote, I'm in form today.

Tell me the rivers of the Mediterranean Region?

They flow down to the sea, sir.

Mediterranean Sea, it's us who come, not the enemy.

The most powerful team of the Mediterranean is Adanaspor.

Bravo, sit down.

Şaban, put a clove...

...on your collar...

...so that I can recognize you.

Kiss and bite you.

Mediterranean region has a rich flora... What are you talking there?

- I wasn't, sir. - Tell us the Mediterranean climate.

In the Mediterranean the summers are hot and dry, and the winters are warm and rainy.

Shut up. Aren't you ashamed to tell football games because I'm hard of hearing? You nasty.

Hababam! Hababam!

Hababam! Hababam!!

If I could live on my pension, because of Hababam class...

...I wouldn't stay a minute in this school.

- The same with me. - Let's wait.

The new vice-principal is coming today. Maybe he'll put these guys in order.

I don't think so. I know Mahmut from Konya Highschool. He's not a tough guy.

Mr. Principal couldn't keep them from playing football in the front garden no way.

- Pardon? - Just listen to that noise!

Not a sound from them today. Knock on wood.

- Here you are. - Where were you?

We ate half an hour ago. You're just bringing the coffees.

What can we do? Which chore to do first?

The dormitory is on me. Here you are.

The cellar is on me. Here.

I sweep the place. Here you are.

I help the cook. It's the third time I'm warming up beans.

- Why? - Guess why?

Hababam Class hasn't eaten yet.

- So what? - What do you mean?

Do you think I can work when they are hungry?

Hafize, if you could, you would swaddle those big donkeys and put them to bed.

Please. Sir Sıtkı, let me introduce you to our new vice-principal Sir Mahmut.

Our mathematics teacher Sir Sıtkı.

- Sıtkı the Kurd. - Nice to meet you, sir.

The new vice-principal!

- Welcome. - Thank you, sir.

Our geography teacher Sir Rıza.

- Welcome Mahmut. - Kemal, you're here, too?

After retirement we took refuge in here.

- Say, like me. - So you know each other.

- Right. - Our biology teacher Sir Necmi.

- How are you, sir? - Thank you.

- Our philosophy teacher Sir Lütfü. - Welcome Sir Mahmut.

- Thank you, sir. - Excuse me, can't see clearly.

And Sir Nuri is our physics teacher.

- Unfortunate accident. - Do you see our school?

- They turned it into a stadium. - Why they don't play in the front garden?

How many times I've forbidden it. Do you think they listen?

Nevermind, better it hits objects than the body.

- Mr. Principal! - What is it?

Aren't you ashamed to ask for the ball? I won't give it.

- Please, forgive just this once. - Shut up, stay away!

Please, it's just an accident.

I'll talk to you later. You run away from school every night lately.

- We'll pay for the broken glass. - Give them their ball.

Delicious.

May God bless the ones who play for compote.

Drink it, this isn't idiot's compote but cow's compote.

- You... - Don't put up with him my son.

- Okay. - Don't ever take this cow into the team.

Don't get on my nerves now that I don't say anything, ok?

My brave son don't get angry. And drink your compote.

What is compote to a donkey?

- Now is the right time for a cigarette. - Don't drink that shit everywhere.

- The new vice-principal came. - How is he?

- He looks like a mellow guy. - What if he is a severe guy?

- Hafize, they're calling you from upstairs. - Here I come. You behave yourselves.

Şaban, light up one.

Thank God we don't need anybody's cigarette. Just let me have one.

- Principal is coming. Throw it away. - You can't fool me again.

- Şaban! What's that? - Cigarette.

Cigarette! Here, take this cigarette!

- Here's the room for the teacher on duty. - Where will the teacher sleep then?

No one stays at school. Veysel, the doorman, and me.

Understood.

- I want to ask you something. - Ask.

If you'll stay at school you don't have a family.

- Yes, I don't. - I'll take care of you too.

- I'll do your laundry. - It'll be a trouble for you.

What trouble? It'll take two minutes.

Are you crazy? Come on, wipe the board slower, we're getting itchy.

- Dear Cow, you have a letter. - My sweetie has written again.

What's going on? What will you do with the cat?

For the physics class. The teacher will show us how they always lands on all four.

- No cats in the class. - Why cats can't when there are cows?

- I gave the letter. - You have a letter again?

From my love, she decided to meet me at last.

- You're kidding, Cow, let me see. - I won't!

Catch this!

- What are you looking for, son? - I lost it.

- I can see. Take your seat. - Okay, Mr. Principal.

This is the class of Hababam, sir.

Sit down!

Let me introduce your new vice-principal and your history teacher Sir Mahmut.

- You can begin your lesson, by your leave. - Thank you.

In this first lesson, let's get to know each other if you want.

It would be nice.

- I am Ferit Eken. - We call him Ferit the Groom.

Ferit, the Groom, how old are you?

25, almost 26. I don't look it, right, sir?

- Yeah, right. - Get lost!

Your agemates finished the university and you're still in college?

I'm not in a hurry, we digest what we learn.

- How old are you? - 23.

- What's your name? - I'm called Necmi, the Shorty.

- You don't have a surname? - My surname... what was it?

So you're 23 years old, Shorty.

- Yes. - What's your father's job?

I don't know for sure but I guess he's doing some shady business.

- Moo! - You!

- Who's that cow? - I am, sir.

Nice to meet you. Why do they call you Cow, do you study a lot?

- It's not about studying. - He's a natural born cow!

- Why are you still at college? - Girls don't leave me alone.

They say I have a wild charm, yes.

Cow charm.

In every school the teachers also have nicknames.

Don't search a name for me, they call me Bald Mahmut.

I've lost my hair during my teacher life of 25 years.

What I see and hear about your class is not so nice.

I hear you're playing hooky, I won't let you.

I saw you playing football in the front garden, I won't let you.

- Obviously you smoke. - Absolutely no, sir, we never touch one.

Don't let me see you smoking, I'll hurt you.

As for cheating,...

...neither in my lesson nor in someone else's, I won't let you cheat.

- For your information. - We never cheat, sir.

Sit down! And don't talk without permission!

I don't want noise, patter, fights in the school. I'll hurt you.

You'll be on time for lessons and meals...

...you'll sleep and get up right on time.

He's like a clock!

If you do these things I said, we'll get along well.

If you don't, it's your choice.

I hear you're playing hooky, I won't let you!

I hear you're cheating, I won't let you!

You're playing football in the front garden, I won't let you.

We'll play anyway.

- I hear you're smoking, I won't let you! - We'll smoke.

Haven't I told you not to smoke!

Sir Mahmut!

Shorty, they call this a horse play, all right?

Most of the boarders come from Anatolia, sir.

Their families just turn them over to us and run.

They just send their school instalments, that's all.

They never call the kids. It's not an easy task.

For a pupil we get 9.000 Lira.

Shall we use this for their meals, their beds or their hygiene?

- Which class is this up there? - Class of Hababam.

By God! Even I got used to call them that way; senior class of Literature.

Unfortunately, they are just over your head.

Hop. Boom!

Stand firm, Shorty, I'll break your waist.

Come on Cow, jump, do we have to wait you?

Attention pals, Shorty's gonna die now.

Here comes flying Cow, pay attention!

The imam of the village, feeds the straw from below.

The smoke rises above, this and that how many did he score.

- What are you doing! - Attention! To your places.

Hababam Class is ready for inspection with 26 members.

Sit down, this is not a barrack.

You nasty guys, so you play games in class?

Put away the books.

Bring out the sheets; I'll do a written test.

Where did we put the physics questions?

What are we gonna do now? We don't know a thing.

If we can't disrupt the lesson with his military stories, we're done.

I suspect the ones who play games waiting for their teacher.

When we were at your age, on horseback...

...we were chasing the enemy in Sakarya.

Shorty!

- With your permission, Pasha. - Talk

When the Greeks blew up the bridge at Sakarya...

...my father brought three soldiers swimming across.

Wounded, hungry.

Sit down my son, don't cry, you'll make me cry too.

Such a generation we were, we saved this country bare foot,..

...hungry but with the faith in here.

Hurra, sir!

At dawn, we started to bomb the enemy lines.

Long live, sir.

At the head of my troop, I was awaiting orders from the headquarters, without blinking.

My soldiers, forward march!

One, two. Left, left.

We can't recruite young and talented teachers at our school.

We can't pay what they want, of course.

- Yes, please. - All our teachers are old. Thank you.

There is no teacher in the class of Hababam, Mr. Principal?

No, but Pasha Nuri was going to do a test, obviously they're disrupting the lesson.

The enemy was defeated, Kemal Pasha gave his order.

Armies, your first goal is Mediterranean, forward!

- Sorry, sir, I thought the class is idle. - It's not, I'm here.

- I thought you were the physics teacher. - You're right, our lesson is physics.

But what am I doing here? You get me down!

- Come here! - Yes, my Pasha!

God damn your Pasha! You were the first to take me up your shoulders, right?

- Yes, my Pasha. - Get back to your places. Get lost!

Shorty started the show and we're getting the blame.

- Come on, I'm gonna do a test. - Sir.

You don't have time, I guess.

I couldn't quiz this class for three months.

- Why, sir? - I don't know!

Every time I try to quiz, I find myself on shoulders.

What disturbs me most is Veysel, the doorman's show off.

He says he lets no one out without Mahmut's permission.

What can we do? If Sir Mahmut closed the front door.

Then we'll open another door.

He'll see if Hababam Class can or cannot run away from school?

What's happening? Not finished yet?

- Not much left. - You keep an eye on.

Are we cursed or something? We became slaves!

Kids, look at Cow.

- Cow, are you running too? - The girl's waiting me in Taksim.

She'll know me by my clove.

All right, the hole's open, come on.

Guys, Sir Mahmut's here, don't come.

Are they all looking from windows?

- Yes. - They're looking up here, right?

Yes.

- We've made fools of ourselves. - We lost our reputation.

Even the youngers are watching us.

Good work. Even though you won't be able to graduate,...

...at least you'll have a career.

You should make the things you destroyed.

Also, masonry is not a bad occupation. Go ahead!

Sit down, sit down.

What happend? You are very quiet today!

Well done Sir Mahmut. How did he make you put up the wall?

We became an object of derision!

As they say, one would be stronger than other one.

If you are Hababam Class, he is Sir Mahmut.

He's looking for trouble! Let's perform!

It means that you need someone like Sir Mahmut.

You see!

- What happened? Do you want something? - Sir, I am...

...a supervisor from the national education Hikmet Görkem.

Please come in, Sir Görkem!

- How are you boys? - Thank you!

You're welcome.

- He took the bait. - Yes.

Please sit down sir.

What is the subject of the lesson, sir?

- The lesson is "Logic", sir. - Good.

Can I ask some questions to them, sir?

- Of course, sir. - You!

- I'm asking you! - Stand up Cow! Stand up.

What did you say to me, bub? Sir.

I said "come here" You're looking like a cow to me.

He says cow! Your mother...

...I recognize her but I can't remember where.

Sir, I think this kid is a little idiot. He looks like a cow.

He still says cow!

- His friends call him a cow. - Come here.

Come on, come on.

Tell me, do the cows have logic?

- Cow is your dad! - It's a bit much! You, nasty!

- I'll beat him with your sanction. - Sanction is yours, sir.

- God bless your hands. - Come here, you ribald!

- You impish! You cow! - Don't hit!

- Sit down! - Your mother... Okay?

Sit down.

I'm sorry to bother you, sir.

Is that you Sir Mahmut? The supervisor came to my class.

- The supervisor? - Yes, sir.

That's why I came, sir. The director wants to talk with...

...the supervisor about an important subject.

- Come on, sir. - Let's go.

- Excuse me, sir? - Of course, sir.

This time Güdük will definitely be kicked out so that I'll get rid of him.

You know that the penalty for your behavior is expulsion.

But I'll not punish you.

I understand, you're young, you have the right to have fun and laugh.

But you don't have the right to humiliate someone...

...by taking advantage of his disabilities.

Especially when this person is your teacher.

You'll understand this in time. Go on.

Write down. The fifth and last question.

The heritage diagram of mirabilis uniflora.

- There's no copy of that. What will we do? - I don't know.

Boncuk, do you know the last one?

Don't talk! Don't look around!

Don't lean under the tables! I'll take your papers! Attention!

Five, four, three, two, one, zero. Start!

Don't copy from anybody! I have never let my students cheat...

...in my 30 years teaching life.

He never let anyone cheat.

- Çetin. - What's up?

Send these questions to Mother Hafize!

Hababam Class cheats, right? Let's cheat and we'll see!

- Who is under the floor? - Kemal from the science class.

I've got him for a pack of cigarette.

- What's wrong with you? Are you sick? - No, I'm not.

- Why are you wearing a coat? - I'm sick sir. I feel cold.

Get well soon. I'll challenge the student...

...who can dupe me, or cheat on my lesson. Don't move!

Mona Riza! Lift your foot.

Shorty. You wrote the notes upside down. What do I do now?

- Teacher is looking. - Jackass!

Bravo.You write very well. If you work hard, you can do it.

We studied a lot sir, didn't sleep last night, did we?

- What're you doing there? - I got ink on my hands.

I wrote, take it.

Bastard! He's smoking down there.

- You. - Me, sir?

Yes you, put your hands up!

Don't move, you swallowed something.

Yes sir, I swallowed a candy.

Sir! Excuse me, I'm disturbing you.

Welcome Sir Mahmut!

- You're making a test I guess. - Right. Don't move!

They got used to cheat in other lessons, but I'm cracking down.

During my 30 year career, not a single student cheated.

How would they dare? Don't move.

- Sir excuse me, have a nice teaching. - Thank you.

No one can cheat in my class!

- Beans looks so delicious. - Sir, won't we eat dinner?

I told you not to cheat.

Sir, I wonder, how long one can go hungry?

- I guess three days. - Good, so Shorty will die tomorrow.

Sir Mahmut, couldn't you find any other punishment? They are going to die of hunger.

Cheating is no big deal, forgive them.

You stay out of this. No forgiveness.

- They know their fault. - Sir, I feel dizzy because of hunger.

Hang on, hunger is good, you'll get rid off your extra kilos.

- How can we be full up with water? - Don't drink much, it may cause diarrhea.

I think Sir Mahmut will be so much trouble.

- What's up? You look bad. - I'm very hungry, I can even eat you.

I'll fool Mother Hafize and get us some food.

Domdom, turn down the volume.

Kikirik, music heals the soul. Listen so you can be full up.

- What're you eating Şaban? - Churchkhela, roasted chickpea.

- Delicious, my father sent them. - Give me some buddy!

- No way. - You just wait.

Here, a pot of rice. Enjoy.

- The mother of mothers! Give me a cheek. - Get off.

What's up Ferit? Didn't I tell you not to eat in the evenings?

Eating at this time may ruin your stomach.

Give me that pot.

Ferit. Ferit get up.

- Come on! Ferit! - Is he asleep?

Yes. Now, Cow will get what he deserve.

- Didn't you sleep yet? - We're dying of hunger.

- Can't sleep if we don't steal his chickpeas. - Steal then.

- Sure he is sleeping? - He's filled up and asleep.

Pee. Come on my dear. Come on my calf.

Pee. Come on buddy.

Pee. Come on my cow.

Pee.

Tulum, have some. Cow's foods.

That's very fresh, makes me feel alive. Let's eat!

It's done.

- Wait! - Give us some.

Allright. Do we have a shop here.

Don't be angry with me. I didn't eat your toothpaste. Take it back.

- Come on! You've been here for an hour. - I'm shaving.

- You must shave on weekends. - Hey boys! Look who is coming.

Why are you laughing? I still feel sleepy.

- You're so beautiful darling. - What do you use for your lips?

- What my lips? - Look in the mirror.

Holy crap! Which bastard did this to me?

- Good morning my dear Şaban. - Good morning.

- Wake up! Breakfast time. - I don't want to.

I guess I'm sick. I feel like a puny. I have fever.

- Cow got sick, he has a fever. - Let me look.

Oh dear. Let me look, open it.

You're so sweaty, Your bed is soaked.

Don't open the quilt! I feel cold.

Sir Mahmut is coming.

What's up? It's breakfast time, why are you still here?

- Great! He's still lying. - I can't get up, sir.

- Why? - Last night I...

What's the big deal? Is this the first time?

First time, sir. I pissed myself.

- What! You pissed yourself? - Yes.

- Eat slowly. You are going to choke. - I won't.

He's compensating for last night's hunger.

Right. But if you continue like this you'll be hungry all the time.

- You are so strict, sir. - Am I?

- Indeed. - Can I ask you something?

- Ask away. - Why do you stay overnight at the school?

- It doesn't suit your book, right? - Yes, sir.

- Don't you have a home sir? - I don't.

- Excuse me. Aren't you married? - No, I'm not.

I couldn't find an opportunity to marry...

- ...or have a child. - Why sir?

I spend all my life licking into shape the kids like you.

I don't even know if I was right or wrong. Bon appetit!

- What a roasted chickpea! Like nuts. - They are chickpeas of a fool.

Take some Şaban. They are Shorty's.

He hid them in his cabinet. We stole them last night.

Did he? Treacherous! I'll eat under his eyes.

Eating fool's roasted chickpeas is great.

- Did you steal from a fool too? - No! I stole from a cow.

Our opponent at the inter-highschool quiz show this year is a girls' highschool.

- Oh dear, the girls are coming. - What luck!

No. Sir Mahmut chose the competitors from the science class.

- No way! - Are you sick?

- We are the competitors every year. - He is setting up new rules.

Why are you angry at me? Be angry at Sir Mahmut.

Boys! They are coming here.

What will happen now?

Sir Mahmut ruined us.

Congratulations! Heard you'll compete in the quiz show.

Come on, I don't think they'll make such a mistake.

They won't. They are smart boys. Right?

The most beaıtiful example of arud prosody is...

...the poem "Sessiz Gemi" by Yahya Kemal.

If there comes a time to raise anchor from time, one day more

- Tell me. - Mefulü, mefailün, mefailü, feulü.

A ship will set out from this harbor toward an unknown shore.

- Ferit! - Yes, sir.

What are you doing there? Read the "Sessiz Gemi" of Yahya Kemal.

You are wrong sir. It's Hümeyra who sings "Sessiz Gemi".

- There is no singer like Yahya Kemal. - God damn you jackass! Sit down.

- Read Necmi. - I'll read, sir.

Do you think this is a bar? Sit down!

- You jackass. - Şaban, what are you talking about?

- Get up and read. - What will I read?

- Mefulü, mefailü. - Mefulü, mefailü...

Kefaluffü, I'm scratching.

Mefulü... There is something on my back! Failüttün.

I'll do something to Shorty.

Mefakülü, failüttün. What did you put on my back?

- It's harmless. A scorpion! - There is a scorpion on my back, sir.

What? A scorpion? Undress! Undress!

I guess I'm dying. The scorpion has bitten me, sir.

Stop reading, undress, son.

- Help him. - It's a horse botfly, sir.

Let me see. It's not a horse botfly, it's a cow botfly.

How bad! We can't smoke any more with full enjoyment.

Don't be scared son, Kikirik is at the door, watching.

- Kikirik. - I'm here!

- What are you doing here? - I'm watching.

Don't jaw and sleep there. Or we will fall into toilets.

Then I'll flush and get rid off you.

- The most dangler boy of our class. - My wild boy.

I'll read my letter while smoking.

I don't want to be disturbed, ok?

I have a letter from my love.

Guys! Sir Mahmut is coming. Throw your cigarettes away.

Get out! What are you doing there?

Look, Shorty! Stop imitating Sir Mahmut! If I come...

Put out that cigarette. Didn't I tell you not to smoke?

I have taken that bait once!

Let me read my letter.

I said get out! Put out that cigarette.

How he enjoy himself! Barefaced!

You are the barefaced! Shorty, you asked for trouble!

Sir Mahmut.

Sit down.

These boys came to me and said that they don't want to join the quiz show.

I pushed them but they didn't say anything.

Apparently you did threaten your friends.

I ask them once again, in front of you.

- Did they threaten you, son? - They didn't, sir.

These kids will join the quiz show.

Don't try to pressure them, this time I'll hurt you bad.

Listen, we will meet at five o'clock at the ferry port.

- Okay? - Okay.

Good luck guys!

We will bunk off in a way that it will be glorious.

Now Sir Mahmut will see the Hababam Class.

Attention! Shun! Forward march!

Stop!

- Where are you going? - Open the gate, Sir Veysel.

We are going to welcome the president of the Republic of Uganda by order of Mr. Mahmut.

Okay.

March well on the parade. Come on!

Shun! Step! March!

Sit down, sit down.

You are so quiet again.

As the saying goes, diamond cuts diamond.

How did he put you in order, Sir Mahmut.

God bless you Sir Mahmut You made Hababam Class putty in your hand.

- What did I do? - What else will you do?

What a silence. As if they were not even in the school.

Thanks to you, we live quietly! They have never been silent before.

- Sir Mahmut. - Yes, sir.

- I think Hababam Class is not up there. - Excuse me?

I checked the tables with my hands but couldn't find anyone.

Welcome lions. How was the walking?

- Did Sir Mahmut ask for us? - No.

I said "You sent the children...

...to welcome the president." He said "yes, I sent them."

Why didn't he come to greet us.

It's the new game of Sir Mahmut. Hang on!

Shame on him. I regret.

Look, Sir Mahmut is at the stairs.

Welcome. Did you see the president of Uganda?

- How is he? Fine? - He said hello to you.

Thank you. You have taken enough air today.

There will be a penalty for this. You are not allowed to go this weekend.

What a pity! Everybody is outside.

I wish I were in that ship.

Give me the binoculars.

Look, he's walking around with his love.

Everybody is going to Kadiköy and we are here dozing away. What a luck!

Imagine! You are with your girlfriend.

I wanted to go to disco, Osman would come with three girls.

- Now, he is alone - I was going to the island last week.

I'm mostly upset for the match.

Faithless woman! Why did you keep me waiting in Taksim for three hours?

- What are you writing, Cow? - I'm writing a letter for my love.

What's going on, Groom? Early in the morning.

I have to go today, or she will worry about me.

I have a headache cause we don't have a cigarette.

You are still sleeping. It's 9 o'clock. Come on! Wake up to the breakfast!

- We will not eat Mother Hafize. - We are going to die of hunger.

- Sir Mahmut will get rid of us. - God forbid!

We don't have cigarettes. If we don't smoke after dinner, we die.

- That's why we don't eat. - If you find cigarettes for us, we'll eat.

- If we don't smoke, we'll die. - You'll tug at my heartstrings.

Alright. I'll go and buy.

Bless our Mother Hafize, God!

Amen.

Guard us from evilness of Bald Mahmut.

Send him away immediately, God!

Amen!

- Smoke for the soul of the betrayer Bald! - Smoke!

- We became rats. - Quiet! We will be captured.

He can't capture us here in the attic.

You were going to burn the whole school. I said not to smoke!

We are addicted, sir. What can we do?

- We got used to smoke, sir. - Yes, they got used to smoke.

If I don't smoke, I crock up.

It's so easy, we will institutionalize you.

If you institutionalize Shorty, I'll stop smoking, I promise.

Who did bring you these cigarettes?

I said who? I'll find him.

Where is Ferit?

- I asked you something. - He's sick, in his bed.

Sick! I took his meal upstairs but he didn't eat. He has a fever.

Sick, right? Are you sick too?

You don't talk with your teacher.

What did I do to you, boys?

You played hooky, scoffingly. Should I congratulate you?

Don't look at me as an enemy.

My students have looked at me that way all my life, I'm used to it.

I just tried to teach them nice things...

...and show the right way.

But when I look back...

...I see that I did not succeed.

All my life I was banished from one corner of Anatolia after another.

Every time I'd punish a student for his mistake...

...there was an insensitive bigwig conservator...

...or an administrator who said I had gone too far.

I just wanted the kids...

...have responsibility and do their duties.

It would have been enough for my happiness.

But it never happened.

I spent my life for nothing.

It's hard to admit at this age that I made a mistake.

I'll try to teach to you, to my students...

...the truth and the good for the rest of my life.

Although I am hopeless.

Why did you run away from school?

Look at you, you look as if you were attacked by a dog.

Why did skip from school? I think you have an important reason.

- Yes, sir. - Tell me then.

- I could not tell. - If you tell me, I'll forgive you.

- I see, but it's impossible. - All right.

It's not my fault. You can't go out until the end of the year.

You are going to be my friend at the weekends.

I'll escape again, I have to.

I have to not let you escape.

- She is so pretty. - Give it to me!

- She is adorable. - Ferit, she doesn't look like you.

She looks like her mother.

- She did grow up so fast. - She is five months old.

- Now, is this child yours? - Of course, she is mine.

Poor girl! She did marry such a jackass.

- Damn you! - How did she make a child!

Keep your nose clean Cow.

- Does your dad know the child? - He doesn't even know I'm married.

Attention! The commandant has come.

Sit down Put your books away.

Take out a paper, I'll make an exam.

Sir! We can...

...sacrifice our lives for this country.

We are the sons, who came from...

...Gazi Osman Pasha, Pilevne...

...Zeytinburnu, Islands and Modalar.

We are a generation of...

- Cry buddy, cry! - We are...

Don't beat the air. I'll hold the exam. Take out the papers.

We are such a generation. There is no such generation.

Shut up, come off it.

I'll never give up the exam.

I promised Sir Mahmut. Take out the papers.

The spring came early this year.

After this we will do gym lessons in the garden.

That would be great, sir.

- What kind of costume is this Hafize? - The kids have the show.

What's that to you?

They couldn't find an actress. I'll play.

- What kind of play is this? - A historical play.

- Who are you? - I am the wife of Mahmut IV the Bald.

Sultan Bald Mahmut commands that...

Hope nothing's wrong. What did he command?

Whoever smokes around...

...he will be beheaded.

Our sultan said something stupid. Smoke! Smoke!

Hey singles. How shameless you are?

You are smoking in front of me, a powerful sultan,...

...Mahmut the Bald. Don't make me angry!

Even if you get into the toilet hole,..

...or hide in the attic, I'll catch you.

- What's up, boys? - We are preparing for the year end show.

What about the cigarettes?

There was a sultan, who forbid smoking. We are playing him.

I see. Are you the sultan?

Yes. I am the Mahmut IV the Bald.

I liked that you are preparing a historical play.

But there was no Mahmut IV in the Ottoman Empire.

The one who forbid smoking was Murat IV.

Also Murat IV was not bald.

Okay?

Now...

...I will check your historical knowledge.

Take out papers.

Question one...

...the age of Murat IV.

- Where do you throw! - Cow, a girl came. She is asking for you.

- A girl, you said? Don't pull my leg. - Really. She is waiting for you.

- Where? - We hid her in the backyard.

She waited in Taksim and as you didn't come, she missed you and came here.

- Take me to my love. - Come on.

- Where is my love? - She is hiding behind us.

Get away from her. Leave us alone.

He's right. We need to leave him alone with his love.

He cruised to Iran twice.

- Write carefully. - Okay.

The first voyage was Revan, and he cruised to East Anatolian...

...and second voyage was Bagdat...

Groom, you dictate us literally but Sir Mahmut will find out.

So be it, better. He could not prove it and gets angry.

How will you change the papers with the original papers?

Leave that to me.

- Be quiet until the end of the quiz show. - We will come and release you.

- I have from A to K. - I have from K to Z.

- Don't fail! - What a noise! There is a carnival upstairs.

They put us here, they have fun up there.

- Starting... We are ready. - Are you ready?

So the boys' highschool is the leader in its group. Congratulations!

Sit down.

- Good morning. - Good morning, sir.

I congratulate you for your fraud and tyranny...

...at the quiz show.

We congratulate you too sir. You fixed the device.

I fixed the device for the honour of the school.

Not for encouraging you.

I haven't said anything to the director yet.

- It makes no difference, sir. - He can't expel us.

We are in total 235 thousand lira per year, by 9 thousand lira per person.

Drop the subject.

The punishment of your behavior is...

...you all are unauthorized until the end of the year.

So you don't let Ferit and me alone during weekends.

And about the exam.

- Did you read them sir? - Yes, I did.

I guess you switched the papers.

But as you didn't get caught the exam is valid.

- You all get 10 points. - Thank you, sir.

Only Şaban gets 2 points.

Why sir? I wrote all the book too.

But you missed four commas.

Ms. Hafize.

Only you have the keys of this room, right?

Yes, sir.

From now on, I'll have the keys. Am I clear?

Yes, sir.

So you can't change the exam papers again.

- Believe me, sir... - Shut up. Don't talk!

I know, that you did it.

You also brought the cigarettes.

You know how much harm you do to these kids?

I'll never do that again, sir. Never again!

I wish I never listened to them!

- I'll fire you from this school. - Mercy me, sir.

Don't separate me from my children. I can't live without them.

I promise. I'll never sidle up to them.

I sadly have to inform you, son.

Your dad sent a letter. His business is not going well.

Didn't he send the tuition fee?

Yes. Actually I could handle you until the end of the year. But...

- ...business is on the burn already. - So what, sir?

You have to leave the school tomorrow.

So the boss will boot us out, if the tuition fee is not paid.

My dad never delays the tution fee...

...I wish they receive it late and boot me up.

They boot out the one who study and they force us study.

Why are you packing so quickly.

- What's the rush? - The boss said to leave the school tomorrow.

Never mind. You get rid of the school.

I wish it was our last night too.

I'm sad to lose you.

This is my whole money. Bully for Boncuk.

- It's 608 lira 75 kurus. - God damn us!

Is that all we have?

You always have a quick mind, say something Shorty.

My mind is stopped.

Guys, I found a way.

- We will extort. - Good idea.

Hababam Class extorts, what else can one say?

Have you started banditry now?

I'll show you how to extort.

Gangsters! Tell me, why did you do this?

- We didn't do it for fun. - What a pitty!

You didn't do it for fun. I am so sorry.

You needed money.

Why did you do this?

We can not say the reason, sir.

- Did you hear what's happened? - Yes, sir.

I was making an investigation about that.

They took 100 liras from this boy, they beat him up when he refused to give.

They wanted to pay their friend's so-called tuition fee.

Come again?

I understand, sir. Leave the rest to me.

Beat these punks hard, sir.

They will understand what it means to rob and beat people at school.

Wait for me outside.

So you were collecting the money for your friend who will be leaving.

Why didn't you tell me?

We didn't want to humiliate our friend.

I see.

Smile a little! Why are you pouting like at a funeral?

How can we smile? You smile.

Would we say goodbye like that, son?

You would soon get your diploma.

- Where's Boncuk? - He went to kiss Sir Mahmut's hand.

He will be here soon.

- Boncuk, good bye. - I'm not going.

- Don't you? - No, Sir Mahmut paid my fee.

Sir Mahmut?

Come in.

What's up Ferit?

We thank you for helping...

...Boncuk, sir. Thank you.

Okay. Allright.

- Sir? - What's the matter?

- There's a girl, sir. - I know.

- That's what I gathered from your wall climbing. - Not that kind, sir.

- I'm married. - What? You are married?

Yes. Also my family doesn't know.

- If my dad hears, he will disown me. - Why did you tell me?

I don't know. I thought you will understand.

I understand. Does the family of the girl know?

- She has no family, sir. - What does she live on?

She works in a company. We found a babysitter.

- She looks after the baby during the day. - Did you say the baby?

Yes sir. I have a daughter. She is 5 months old.

So you have a child. What did you do, son?

- I fell in love, sir. - Okay.

You are off today.

I don't want to. I didn't tell you this to get permission.

Are you arguing with me?

Why are you laughing? Forget it! I won't wear woman's dress.

- I don't care. - It was good! Why are you angry!

Why did Shorty laugh then?

If he's laughing it means there are wheels within wheels.

No. I laugh because I liked it.

I will not become a woman. If you liked it, then be my wife.

You are too Cow!

Look at this, Groom!

- What is this in the basket? - Did she send us meatballs?

What meatballs!

- It's a baby voice. - Baby?

- Why did you bring her here? - I have to...

- ...cause my wife has to go to Izmir. - Don't you have a babysitter?

She ran away. She thinks that her wage is too low.

Give me the wage, I'll babysit for you too.

- It's not the time for a joke, Cow. - Coudn't you leave her with your neighbour?

We couldn't! Their child has the mumps.

- Don't you have any other neighbour? - We don't!

How can we? You jackasses!

Why are you asking questions?

If I wasn't desperate would I bring her here?

- How many days will she stay in Izmir? - Three.

Don't look at me like stupid. We'll babysit her for three days. That's it!

- Why is she crying, Ferit? - How should I know?

Oh dear! Come here.

Don't cry, dear.

Give her to me. Such a sweet baby you are.

My heart will almost stop. I'll be dead because of you.

- Quite. - If it wasn't important we wouldn't wake you up.

Say what you want to say. I'll be dead right over here.

- Hush! God forbid. - We are in a big trouble.

- There you are. - What is this?

God damn you. Are you going to do that too?

Who is her mother? You immoral indecents!

Shut up Mother Hafize, I have enough trouble myself.

- Is she your daughter? - Yes, she is my daughter.

Who knows which girl you shafted and you have a child.

Momy, this child's mom is Ferit's wife.

His wife? Really?

- You don't fool me, right? - I brought her to kiss your hand.

Don't ploy. You can never take a child from her mother...

...and bring at the midnight for kissing one's hand.

- There is something else. - Yes.

- Her mom went to Izmir. - Poor fellow!

She did pee. She'll get rash and couldn't sleep.

Please help us. We need to hide her here three days.

- We will do our best. - I'll change diapers.

I won't give her to anyone, don't worry.

I babysit her and hide. My dear!

320 Ali Eraslan, come here.

Tell us about the philosophy and the society.

- Which page? - 68.

Everybody is born in a society, grows up and will be the person of the society.

As the philosopher is unit of the society...

...he is part of the rules of the religion's law and ethics.

Look Ferit.

What can I do? The director called me. I'll come and take before the class ends.

- Why did you stopped son? Go ahead! - I am at my wit's end, sir.

There is a deep relevancy between his philosophy,..

...which is the idea product of the philosopher.

Like society, religion, language, custom, law and economy...

...he is a cultural creature, which is composed with social institutions.

Bravo! You know it like a book.

- Sit down, 10. - Thank you, sir.

- 322 Ferit. - Ferit is not here, sir.

- 323 Şaban. - Me!

Yes sir. I'm coming.

Tell me about the physical and mental health of the children.

Kids can grow up in three ways.

Some at home, some in dormitories and some in classrooms.

Hell to crying babies!

What are you doing, son? Are you crazy?

You turned this place into a kindergarten.

- May it be easy, boys! - Thank you, sir!

- Are you coming in the evening, sir? - Sure.

There are a lot of lovely shows, sir.

Don't tell me about the shows. Have you nearly finished?

- We are almost ready, sir. - We are ready, sir.

Please look after the kid a little bit.

I am very busy. Why are you making faces?

You said, that you'll look after the baby. Take her!

Give her to me, I'll look after her.

Is she one of the suprises tonight?

She is my child, sir. I told you.

- Why isn't she with her mother? - Her mother went to Izmir.

The babysitter ran away. I got stuck with her.

We have nobody else. What should I do?

- How long has she been at the school? - Since yesterday.

Her mother will be back in two days.

- If you want I'll take the kid and go. - No way!

I think,you're going to be angry if I escape from school.

- There is no way to leave the baby. - Your decision is right, son.

If I were you, I'd do the same thing.

There's no other way. She'll stay two days at school.

Dear Director, dear teachers, dear Friends!

After a month, a whole year of school will end.

This show has been prepared by Hababam class students.

We wish you a lot of fun at this lovely night.

Well. Here comes the first surprise of the night.

The winner of the Eurovision Song Contest, Cici Kızlar.

Mother Hafize, they are calling for you.

Wait. I need to put her to sleep.

Here comes the darling of the youth, the folk singer you've been waiting for.

Not Ali Rıza Binboğa, but Cow Şaban.

Be quiet here. I'll be back as soon as possible.

And here are the Hababam Singers!

Stop this disgrace!

Whose child is this?

There is an illegitimate child in our school. Well done.

Whose child is this?

- The child is mine. - Of course, whose could it be?

Swag man. You don't know...

...what's happening in my school Sir Mahmut!

You are wrong. I know everything.

Why didn't you tell me this?

You can't understand.

If a supervisor comes now and sees this disgrace. What would you say?

Do you want me to shut down the school?

I pay your salary for you to keep order.

So stop paying.

Find yourself a bully assistant.

- He will quit the school right now! - No. He will not go.

Let's not discuss this in front of the students. I make the decisions in this school.

I make the decisions about the life of the students.

- You don't know your limits! - No, you don't know your limits!

I am not a businessman. I am an educator.

That's it. I'm OK now.

There's no danger if I can get over the 2 weeks following the heart attack.

Get well soon.

To grow older while sitting quietly in a corner.

What are you saying sir? You will work a lot more.

The doctors tell me to give up work.

Actually I don't want to work, anyway. I'm hopeless.

You have given us the joy of teaching back.

It's as if I see better than before.

- You have changed us all. - Even Hababam Class.

- Good morning, how are you? - Thank you doctor, I'm fine.

You have important visitors. The faculty of medicine has come to our hospital.

- I don't understand. - Professor Kayhan Oğuz.

- It's my pleasure, sir. - Don't you recognize me?

Sorry. I can't remember you.

Mischievous Oğuz from Erzincan College.

You broke my arm, while escaping from school.

- Yes, sir. - Are you my student too?

Yes, Ornate Selim from Konya College.

I remember. How did you find me?

The students of your last school told us.

We wanted to wish you get well soon...

...and if our colleague will let us, we want to check you, sir.

Thank you. Thank you boys.

Come here Ms. Hafize.

- Welcome. - Thank you.

- Get well soon. - Thank you. Have a seat. - Thank you.

Your room is very lovely. There are a lot of flowers.

Yes. My old students are coming.

- They heard about it. - And the next batch is outside.

- Can they come? - Of course.

- Come on in boys. - Get well soon, sir.

- Get well soon, sir. - Get well soon.

- Get well soon. - Get well soon, sir.

- Get well soon, sir. - Get well soon.

The whole Hababam Class is here.

Sir, we brought these for you as a gift.

Are these diplomas?

- Did you all graduate? - Yes, sir.

You really gave me the best gift.

What is the noise?

- Are you able to stand, sir? - Sure.

Sir Mahmut! Sir Mahmut! Sir Mahmut! Sir Mahmut!

- Who are they? - Your future students.

Sir Mahmut! Sir Mahmut! Sir Mahmut! Sir Mahmut!
