[theme song plays]

Hey, Einstein. You got an order up.

Sorry, Nat.

Here you go.

Mr. Danzel, hi.

I'm in your American history class. Brandon Walsh.

I was over there studying for the test tomorrow.

Good luck.

I'm not worried about it. History's my favorite subject.

Fine. Would you bring some horseradish?

Sure, no problem.

Want to hear the strangest thing?

What's that?

That guy in the corner's one of my teachers.

- Danzel? - [Brandon] You know him?

[Nat] Yeah, he's a regular.

Don't let him get to you, kid.

He doesn't bother me.

[upbeat music plays]

[Danzel] I grade on a curve.

10% As, 10% Fs.

The remaining 80% get Cs.

"C" for average.

"C" for mediocrity.

"C" for just getting by.

God, who dresses him? [giggles]

They'll be another quiz next Friday

and every Friday.

Thanks, Mr. Danzel.

[Steve] Thanks.

Love the tie, yeah.

Yes, what is it?

Some of the Cs only missed three questions.

The As only missed one or two.

That's the difference between the pursuit of excellence

and morass of mediocrity.

History used to be my favorite subject.

Yeah, that guy gives new meaning to the word hemorrhoid.

- What did you get, Steve? - What do you think?

Oh, I hate you.

You got an "A"?

Yeah.

[Steve chuckles]

Steve is such a brain when it comes to history

and a total submental in everything else.

[giggling]

Bye.

Don't forget I need the story on the swim team by Wednesday.

Hey, the swim teams fine, I'm the one that's drowning.

Strap on a life preserver and get it to me

before the meet with Beverly Hills High.

[sighs] Come on, Andrea, I got three tests next week.

[chuckles] Welcome to West Beverly High.

It's easy for you to say, you don't have a job.

You think running the paper is a picnic?

You're just too good to be true aren't you.

Okay, I will give the swim team to somebody else.

You don't get so nasty because you got a "C."

Look, what are grades anyway?

They're just some weird arbitrary reference points

that can't measure what a person really knows.

I've never gotten a "C" before in my life...

especially in history.

Well, maybe we could study

for the next quiz together.

If you want.

It's no big deal.

I suppose you got an "A?"

What are grades anyway? [chuckles]

Bye.

What I would do to go out with Dylan McKay.

I don't know, everyone says he's trouble.

Well, he can trouble me all he wants.

[giggling]

Hey, Dylan.

Hey, Kelly.

Brenda and I were just talking, which do you think guys

like best on girls, long or short hair?

Hmm. That's a deep question.

Personally, I prefer blondes.

Really?

Really.

Truly.

So you're Brandon's sister, huh?

Yeah, I'm Brandon's sister.

Yeah. She's Brandon's sister.

Bye, girls.

He's so weird.

Yeah.

[cricket chirping]

I've always had a thing for blondes.

Mom, you scared me.

Honey, you're beautiful.

Not California beautiful.

[sighs] Brenda...

Hey, hon.

[Jim] Hey, Bren.

Hey, Dad, I've got to do something with my hair.

What's wrong with your hair?

Everything!

- Welcome home. - Mm.

Where's the other half?

He's upstairs studying with Andrea.

Andrea?

[toilet flushes]

- Sorry about that. - [Andrea nods]

So, where were we?

Yeah...

Cherokee Nation.

Ah, right, okay, uh...

Who instigated the Indian removal act,

and what year was it put into service?

Andrew Jackson, 1828.

Wrong!

- What do you mean wrong? - I mean wrong.

The Georgia legislature confiscated the Cherokee land

- when they found the gold. - [huffs]

What are you yelling at me for?

I'm not yelling at you.

It's irritating how you always think you're right.

I am right, Jackson was president.

He's the one who pushed the bill through congress.

He's the one who's ultimately responsible.

Oh.

[knock on door]

Knock, knock.

Hey, Dad, this is Andrea Zuckerman,

- Andrea Zuckerman, my father. - Hi.

Hi. So what are you studying?

American history.

Don't worry. It's Brandon's best subject.

[chuckles]

Nice to meet you.

You, too.

[sighs] This is impossible. There's too much to cover.

Look, it's not that difficult, Brandon.

Just memorize when The Great Migration took place.

Why do you say it like that?

Say what like what?

"It's not that difficult, Brandon."

You act like I have a learning disability or something.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize you were so sensitive.

It's not me.

You're the one who's so condescending and business-like.

It drives me up the wall.

Good luck, Brandon.

Where you going?

This obviously isn't working out.

You're right. Fine. It was a bad idea.

- I'll walk you out. - Oh no, I can find the door.

Us business like types are good at things like that.

Way to go, Romeo.

[

- Hey, where are you going? - Down the tubes.

Ah, another victim of the Danzel curve?

You get another "A?"

Yeah.

My dad's going to kill me, man.

Tell him Danzel gets his kicks out of ruining GPAs.

Doesn't work with him.

He graduated Phi Beta Kappa Summa Cum something.

He never lets anyone forget it.

Maybe I could help you out, we'll form a study group.

[Brandon] For some reason, this doesn't seem like studying.

Ah, it's all the same to me, Brandon.

- Nice house, man. - Huh, this is nothing.

You should see where we lived before my parents got divorced.

When was that?

Which time?

They've divorced each other twice?

Amongst other things.

There have been other marriages mixed in, other kids,

other houses. You know.

[Steve] What?

Your parents are still together?

Yeah.

Look, it's not your fault.

You've got to stop blaming yourself.

[laughing]

All right. Anyway... [clears throat]

What method did the government use

to undermine the tribal structure?

He's not going to ask that.

Land allotment.

The government detribalized everything

by giving every Indian a little piece of land.

You want to see the Lakers/Pistons next week?

- You can get tickets? - Yeah.

My father gave me season tickets for my birthday.

I got a steak dinner and a couple of stripped shirts.

I get great presents since my dad moved out.

If I can keep my average where it is now, I'll be a Trojan.

My father's on the board at SC.

With your grades, you shouldn't have any trouble getting in.

You're a good guy, Brandon.

I don't say that to many people.

In fact, I don't say that to anybody. [laughs]

[giggles]

Well, you're a good guy, too, Steve.

Okay.

Name the five tribes that made up the Confederacy

whose primary aim was universal, perpetual peace.

The Confederacy?

I don't think we covered that.

Memorize it, Brandon.

Trust me. It's the kind of question he likes to ask.

[bell rings]

[Steve] Name the five tribes that made up the Confederacy

whose primary aim was universal, perpetual peace.

Amazing how we studied for every question on the test.

- Isn't that the point? - You stole the test, didn't you?

Right. I happen to be smart, Brandon.

I know, but you couldn't possibly--

Look, relax.

It's supposed to feel good to ace a test.

Can you believe that quiz?

As if he ever mentioned which tribes belong to

the Iroquois Confederacy.

The Mohawks, Senecas, Oneidas, Cayugas, and Onondagas.

Come on, Steve, be honest with me.

- You stole a copy of the test. - Ah.

You knew what I was doing.

No, but in the hall you said--

Was I going to do? Make an announcement on KWBH?

"Hi, everybody, this is Steve Sanders.

I confess. I stole the test."

And you should be thanking me.

I could get expelled for having this.

This is next weeks quiz.

Actually, it's a copy of next week's quiz.

The original's is still tucked away in Danzel's desk.

- How'd you get this? - Bribery, larceny, grand theft.

Your basic tools of the trade.

But don't worry. We won't get caught.

Yeah, that's what every criminal says.

Come on, it's a quiz.

This doesn't bother you at all, does it?

It's your decision. I'm not going to let some fossil

in a leisure suit ruin my GPA.

- It's just a quiz, right? - Right.

And just another "A" on the Danzel curve.

[lively music plays]

Brenda, sorry, but that's not a hairdo, that's a hair don't.

Stop it, Kelly. You're making her a hairaphobic.

No, she's right. I hate it.

The color, the cut, the everything.

So change it. No law says

you have to keep the things you don't like.

[Donna] Brenda, my mom goes to this great guy.

Barely speaks English, has a ponytail

and this really hairy chest.

Oh, and he does Madonna.

Get real, Donna, you'll never get her in there.

Go to Troy Russo on Rodeo, he'll do anybody.

He's real new age. He cuts hair intuitively.

Well how much does he cost?

Color and cut, $300.

I can't afford that.

Oh, how embarrassing.

I'm wearing both contacts on the same eye.

[clears throat] And you thought you had problems.

[giggling]

Nat, Danzel walked in. He's sitting in my section.

I really don't want to deal with him.

Brandon, you can't keep running away from the guy.

Why not?

Because he's a paying customer.

[country music plays]

Here's your dinner, Mr. Danzel, and your horseradish.

How are you this evening, Mr. Walsh?

Fine, just fine.

You did quite well on last Friday's quiz.

Really?

Can I have another drop?

Sure. No problem.

[Danzel] Those who find the Danzel curve unfair

may be encouraged

by the resurrection of Brandon Walsh.

Not only did he get an "A,"

He's the only one of you philistines

who didn't miss a single question.

- Way to go, Brandon. - Absolutely. Kudos are in order.

[sighs]

Looks like I should be the one asking you to help me study.

I aced one test. Big deal.

It is a big deal. You completely loused up the curve.

What did you get?

A "C."

Ouch.

It's goodbye, Yale.

Hello, West Beverly Junior College.

Anyway, I was thinking

maybe we could try studying together again?

[sighs] I don't know.

I know things got kind of competitive last time,

but there's so much to cover.

Andrea, I...

I don't think it's a really good idea right now.

I'm sorry.

[giggling]

Change your hair or you can change your life.

Spending $300 to change something

that's already beautiful and healthy

is just insane.

Then every girl at West Beverly is insane.

If they're spending hundreds on haircuts, they sure are.

Who said anything about a haircut, Mom?

I'm talking about a perm or extensions

or maybe even a great weave.

- Don't you dare. - Why not?

Honey, the people that do those things to themselves

just want to look like you already do.

In other words, I have to stay boring?

For $300?

Yes, I'm sorry but you do.

Hey.

So genius, how did it go today?

Um, pretty good.

Got an "A" on my history quiz.

This is no ordinary "A" mother.

This is a monumental achievement.

- Bren... - Brandon, don't be so modest.

- Danzel is a total Nazi. - Nice work, kiddo.

- It's just a quiz, no big deal. - What's no big deal?

Brandon got an "A" on his history quiz.

That's great. Not that I'm surprised.

Thanks.

I told you that "C" was an aberration.

It's just taking him a little extra time to get adjusted.

Brandon's always been a terrific student.

And he's going to make the honor roll

even if I have to take his tests for him.

[Cindy laughs] Oh, stop.

[clears throat]

Hi.

Don't tell me. Another Danzel special.

I hate that guy.

Does everyone hate Danzel as much as you do?

It's unanimous.

Who else is in his class anyway?

I don't know.

- Andrea, Donna, Steve Sanders... - Dylan McKay?

No, he's too smart to take this class.

Or too busy chasing blondes.

What are you talking about?

I don't understand why every guy's dream girl

must have hair like Daryl Hannah and a body like Kim Basinger?

Bren, i'm trying to study here.

Well, excuse me for living.

[sighs]

Don't spend it all in one place or on one face.

Thanks, Nat.

Hey, hey, are you okay, kid?

Yeah. I'm fine.

I'll see you later.

Brandon, I was hoping you'd be waiting on me tonight.

No, I don't work on Mondays.

That's good. Gives you more time to study.

Yeah, well, I got to go.

You don't know how it makes me feel when one of my students

turns his studies around.

You obviously worked very hard to improve.

Mr. Danzel, can I be honest with you?

Yes.

When I was making Cs in your class,

you didn't have the time of day for me.

Now that I'm making As you're friendly and interested.

Why is that?

I didn't know you when you were making Cs.

Exactly. You never made the effort.

I have five classes--

And no one's learning in any of them.

Anyone can memorize a bunch of facts,

but that doesn't mean their learning anything.

Memorization lays the foundation for a college education

where the ideas can be more fully examined.

By who? A bunch of students

who've never been challenged to think,

who've been told they're average

because some unfair curve screws them around?

- Listen to me, young man-- - No, I can't stand here

and listen to you pat yourself on the back.

The way you teach and give grades is unfair.

It alienates everybody and make them...

It just doesn't work!

Is there a problem Mr. Walsh?

No. No.

[Brandon] No problem.

[sighs]

Come on, Andrea, will you let me explain?

You don't have to. Who needs a study partner when they cheat?

Shh. Lower your voice.

Better yet, how about we don't say anything at all?

It's not like I do it all the time.

That's why you didn't miss one question on last week's quiz.

Hey, I'm not going to let Danzel screw up my GPA.

You'll let him sing your praises and give you a standing ovation.

- That's not fair. - I don't want to talk to you.

As far as I'm concerned, you're a total hypocrite

and you're lucky I didn't turn you in.

You are the one person around here...

Excuse me.

So Joshua, how's that story on the swim team coming?

Congratulations.

- For what? - I heard you aced Danzel's quiz.

Was it on the nightly news or something?

No, Ripley's Believe It or Not!

I wouldn't mind believing the same thing about you,

little Miss Ripley.

Hey, I don't have Danzel's class.

- Thank God. - Well, I think it's great.

- [Cindy] We hear you, dear. - I can't be proud of my son?

It's terrific the way he's working so hard doing so well.

Could we possibly talk about something

other than grades and working hard? Huh?

I think this is great.

We never discuss anything in my house.

Count your blessings.

I'm not saying anything's fundamentally wrong with him,

but for a kid who's finally getting As,

he doesn't seem proud of himself.

That's okay, you're proud enough for him.

As if you're a passive observer in all this.

Obviously, I like it when the kids make the honor roll,

- but grades aren't everything. - Who said they were?

All I'm saying is that with this particular history class,

Brandon doesn't need us to put any additional pressure on him.

Point noted and taken.

Brenda, I told you mixing the two colors together,

is what brings out the highlights.

My mother's going to kill me.

Why? She's the one who needs something done with her hair.

Brenda, she does. [giggles]

Now, it is good that we got the ash tint.

Because that keeps out the red highlights.

Or puts them in. Doesn't matter.

What do you mean it doesn't matter?

Brenda, relax, okay? Meditate or something.

I told you, I know what I'm doing.

This process takes all night, but when you wake up

in the morning, you'll be a brand-new woman.

[nods] A brand-new woman.

- [Brenda] Oh, my god. - [suspenseful music]

Oh, my god.

Oh, my god!

Oh, my god.

What happened?

I colored my hair.

What am I going to do?

Move.

Move to some other city where nobody knows you.

You can start all over again.

I'll go with you, dye my hair and join the circus.

I thought it looked weird last night,

but Kelly swore it'd tone down by morning.

Hey, hey, come on. It's not that bad.

Just pretend it's cool or punk or... something.

It is something.

It's hideous and I hate it.

Then why'd you dye it?

Because I thought it'd make things different.

It has, Brenda.

- Believe me. - No, it hasn't.

I'm still the exact same person inside only now I look worse.

- Morning. - [Brandon] Morning.

Wow, you got enough books there to start a library.

- How's the studying going? - Chill, Dad.

I'm supposed to chill.

I second that.

Brenda.

Kind of cool, huh, guys?

Give it time. It'll grow on you.

It'll grow.

Did you see how she looked at me?

Okay, okay, maybe she was a little shocked at first,

but Dad calmed her down.

To tell you the truth, it's really not that bad.

Should I wear the hat?

I would.

- Bye. - Bye.

Brandon.

Earth to Walsh.

What is wrong with you?

Jacob Danzel, American history.

Ah, yes. Had him last year.

- [Brandon] You did? - Some wardrobe.

Some teacher. He just cares about his holy curve.

- Well, he's retiring this year. - He is?

[nods] He wants to keep it quiet.

Doesn't want everyone making a big deal.

[laughs] If Danzel announces his retirement,

it wouldn't be a big deal. It'd be a national holiday.

[Dylan] I learned a lot from him.

I'm learning how to cheat.

Watch out, man.

You're flirting with bad karma.

Hey, what kind of marks did you get?

- Does it matter? - Yeah.

Be careful.

Brenda, we've been looking all over for you.

Cute hat.

I was in a hat mood.

Show us your hair, silly.

Brenda, uh...

It's--

It's, uh...

Brenda, I love it. It's great. I really do.

You don't think it's...?

- No. It's... - No.

Uh, see you.

Bye.

Hey, Brandon.

I saw you dodging me earlier. What's going on?

I feel kind of weird about this whole Danzel thing.

- Will you lighten up, Brandon? - Don't you feel guilty?

- Guilty as charged. - What's this?

Christmas and summer rolled into one.

Steve, I don't want to touch this.

Are you crazy? Look at the questions.

You could study for two weeks

and not come up with half this stuff.

- I got to go. - Hey.

You cheated on the last quiz.

That was a quiz, this is the midterm.

It's your future.

Hey, Andrea.

- Come on, I got to talk to you. - There's nothing to talk about.

God, you're so judgmental.

You're damn right I am.

I got a "C" because you cheated, I didn't deserve that.

- Talk to Danzel-- - I'm talking to you

because it's your fault!

In 1850,

there were around 120,000 Indians in California.

How many were still alive by 1880, Mr. Walsh?

- Uh, only 20,000. - [Danzel] That's correct.

Tell me, Mr. Walsh.

What contributed to this rapid decline?

The white man killed them off.

Well, everybody knows that, Mr. Walsh.

I'm asking what was the principle cause.

Come on, Mr. Walsh.

Surely you got deeper in order to understand

the broader historical context of this question.

You don't think it's important to know

that the white man confiscated the Indians' land,

took their homes,

caused them to seek refuge in remote barren locals

where health couldn't possibly be sustained?

Sure, it's important to know that.

Then why don't you? Tell us what happened to the others.

The other Indians?

No. No, the other space aliens.

[giggling]

Yes, the Indians.

That's what we've been studying, remember? Yes.

The others were imprisoned on the so called reservations

where they were forced to live by the white man's rules.

[Danzel] Thank you, Miss Zuckerman.

Mr. Walsh told me the other day that he resented

the memorization required in this class,

that he wanted to be challenged to think.

Mr. Walsh, I've just challenged you.

Where did it get us?

Is it my fault you only memorized the facts

and didn't take the time to think?

[bell rings]

Midterm on Monday, class.

I suggest you start studying... and thinking.

[sighs]

You can take your hat off in the house.

Is that supposed to make me feel bad or good?

I begged you not to touch your hair, didn't I?

You just don't understand.

Yes, I do. Honey, honey.

Don't you think I know what you're going through?

The summer I turned 17, all I heard on the radio

was how they wished we could all be California girls.

So you know what Paula and I did?

We ironed our hair right on the ironing board.

Paula's hair caught fire.

She singed off her split ends

and poured an entire bottle of peroxide over her head.

Is the moral of this story that it will grow back?

Oh, Brenda.

Don't you know how beautiful you are?

[dance music plays]

- Brandon. - [Brandon] Steve.

Man, I can't believe how that jerk Danzel

treated you in class today. Everybody was talking about it.

Yeah, it was real special.

Who do you think he is? If he treated me like that...

Steve, what are you doing here?

Uh, I don't know.

The way you were talking in the hall,

I got worried you'd bust me.

Come on, Steve. I wouldn't do that.

I know we're friends. It's just...

I want you in on this with me.

It's just not right.

Compared to what? Failing the class, Brandon?

[sighs] Everybody cheats. Everybody bends the rules.

You either take advantage of it or get left behind.

Brandon, excuse me.

I'm curious. Do you still work here?

Yeah.

Steve, I got to jam.

[Steve exhales] Brandon.

What's your father going to say if you come home with a "C"?

Or an "F"?

Someday when you're sitting behind a big desk,

in a big office with a big view,

you'll thank me for this.

See you, Nat.

See you, kid.

[Nat] Hey, Brandon.

You're doing a real nice job, you know?

Thanks, Nat.

Had a flat tire, huh?

How very observant of you.

Wish the auto club was as attentive.

Someone let the air out?

You've been inside all evening.

You don't know how to fix a flat, huh?

Some things I'd rather pay someone to do.

If you can find someone.

And you know how to do it.

So, I heard you're retiring this year.

There comes a time when one must move on.

I know you don't consider me to be

a particularly affective teacher,

but are those who feel I do a good job.

Well, I didn't mean--

Don't-- don't insult my intelligence, Mr. Walsh.

I know the kids don't like me.

I hear the comments, the constant complaining,

the jokes about my clothes. I am not deaf... yet.

Those same students,

they may not like me,

but they will remember my class,

and they will remember what they learned.

The truth is...

I'm not terribly impressed

with a lot of my clothes myself.

My wife picked them all out for me.

She was ill.

She knew I didn't have the patience to shop for myself.

She was bound and determined

that I would have enough clothes to wear after...

They're the one thing I've got to help me remember.

Good grief. I...

Well, much as I hate to admit it,

I probably could change a tire if I had to.

Well...

[gasps]

They'll be a quiz on Monday.

You dropped this.

Oh, did i?

Thanks.

How much do I owe you?

Uh, it's no problem, really.

I'll see you in class Monday.

Good luck with the midterm.

Thanks.

What are you doing?

You've never cheated on anything, have you?

I'm trying to study.

No. I've never cheated on anything.

- You've wanted to, haven't you? - I don't see what--

Haven't you?

Of course I have. Who hasn't?

The point is I didn't and you did.

You'll never gonna let me forget it, are you?

Cheating's wrong. What do you want me to say?

Nothing. Sometimes you act like you have a personal stake

in everything I do, like we're a couple.

- Yeah, right. - You see everything

only as black and white, right or wrong

but what I did in Danzel's class was not a black and white issue.

- It was a gray area. - Oh by calling it gray area,

does that make you feel less guilty?

No, you probably don't believe it,

but I feel plenty guilty already.

What I was hoping for from you was maybe

a little understanding, maybe a little support.

Thanks, Andrea.

Thanks for nothing.

- Brandon. - I got to study.

Brand--

Brenda, you don't need the hat.

You're right. Do we have any paper bags?

[laughs]

Mom, this isn't funny.

Honey, I didn't say it was funny.

I thought you were making a joke.

Trust me, Mom. My hair is no joking matter.

You've got to be able to laugh at yourself sometimes.

Otherwise, you just make yourself miserable.

Have a nice jog.

Thanks.

- Hi. - Hi.

I thought that was you.

Didn't your hair used to be a little different?

Yes. No.

Well, maybe just a little bit.

I hate this color if that's what you call it.

- It's not that bad. - If one more person says that...

[chuckles] It's not that bad.

Don't all you guys out here have a thing for blondes?

That's what you told Kelly.

Blondes, brunettes, redheads, girls in tank tops,

but if you really hate that color,

I have a friend who does hair and he owes me a favor.

Oh, I don't really hate the color,

but maybe we should see him

for a second opinion or something, don't you think?

No problem.

I like your butt.

I mean your bike.

Oh, well, thank you. Hop on.

My bike, that is.

Have you been at the library all this time?

Mostly, yeah. Working, thinking, you know.

At very least you'll get an "A" for effort.

I expect to get an "A" the test.

That's what I like to hear.

If you don't, it'll be okay.

Will it?

Of course it will.

That's what you guys say, not what you really think.

If I get a "C" from Danzel,

or end up at outer Swobobia state,

you'd be disappointed in me, you'll be angry with me right?

Come on, Dad. Tell the truth.

- The truth? - Yeah, tell me what you want.

What I want in regards to your life,

to your future,

is to see you smile again.

[knock on door]

Wow. Look at you.

Yeah. Back to basics.

At least we don't have to join the circus anymore.

It looks different than before.

Dylan says it's incandescent.

My friend Dylan?

My friend Dylan.

[giggling]

Hey there.

Hi.

- Andrea. - Brandon.

Look, um, I'm not in the best mood.

I was up all night studying.

I was, too.

What, making cheat notes?

It crossed my mind...

but if I cheated, I might screw up the curve

for this friend of mine

who I care about and respect more than she knows.

Even if she can be a real pain.

I, uh, I have a friend who's one of those.

Well, maybe we should introduce them.

They'd probably get along just great.

I doubt it.

[bell rings]

So are you prepared?

Yeah, I am. I tore up my copy of the test.

That's smart. Burn the evidence it's safer that way.

Steve, I couldn't bring myself to look at it.

Man, you are hopeless.

What if you flunk test?

I won't.

Now before we start the test,

I'd like you to listen to my instructions very carefully.

Turn the test over,

look at it very closely.

Now tear it up.

[Danzel] That's right. You heard me. Tear it up.

Go on.

Tear it up.

That's right. Very good. Very good. Now...

As far as your midterm goes,

instead of the test which you've just destroyed,

I'd like to know what you think.

Your midterm consists of one essay question.

Using examples from history to contrast with your answer,

what do you think our government should've done

in the 19th century

to save the American Indian?

It was a hard question...

but a good hard question.

I guess that depends on what you studied for.

I've been giving that same midterm for 15 years.

Some students may have gotten hold of a copy by now.

[Danzel] You think?

Yeah, but, uh...

Some students who may have had a copy of it

might have chosen not to study from it...

after they thought about it.

That's what I was thinking.

It's too bad you're retiring this year.

Ah, the semester isn't over yet.

If you think the American Indian was difficult,

wait till we get to the Civil War.

Nice suit, by the way.

It is quite hideous, isn't it?

Yeah.

But you wear it well.
