Sustainability could be
taking less or shorter showers.

Or using rain water to shower on holiday,
like I did.

Mo, sit down and no more middle fingers.

It's really… a thumb.

A thumb.

Can you stop that noise?
Or else you'll have to leave--

What's up, marmots?

You get the elephant.
And you get the tree.

-No.
-Fuck, I knew it.

And here's the lion.

And you get the zoo keeper,
very important.

All right.
The final musical is a special event.

It's important to rehearse it well.

You can find the schedule
on the first page--

Can we please see Mr. Nordin's message?

I think it was sent by mistake.

And he's no longer your teacher
since he doesn't work here anymore.

Let's forget about him.

It's also inappropriate
to send children messages like that.

Your face is inappropriate.

-Hey.
-"Hey."

-Language.
-"Language."

-Silence.
-"Silence."

-I mean it.
-"I mean it."

-I'm counting to three.
-And then what?

-Three.
-Two.

-Two, one.
-And now?

What?

I'm moving the smart board to the hallway.

Quiet. No throwing.
Cut it out. Stop it, guys.

Thank you. This is unprecedented.

A few months ago, I never would've dreamed

of having a seat in the parliament
with my own party.

This seat is a reward

for not hiding your opinion.

Not conforming to the status quo.

For expressing your dreams.

And my dream for the next generation
is equality for everyone.

Cheers. To my wonderful daughter, Vera,

who, despite a few setbacks,
has managed it yet again.

I learned from the best.

The school year is coming to an end.
The parents will receive a letter in July.

We can start the demolition in October.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

Isn't it wonderful?

How are you doing?

It's about Hayat today.
Let it be a beautiful, happy day.

-Don't talk about my mistakes.
-So you admit you were wrong?

Let me tell you something, my son.

Did you do things
that didn't turn out well? Yes.

Did you make mistakes? Maybe.

But I'm still proud of you, honey.

Why are you proud?

Hayat already said you were right
at the last meeting

You've always supported her.
Choukri and I should learn from you.

From me? I just got fired
from an elementary school.

-What is there to learn?
-It's time now.

-For you to start working with us.
-What?

If you come to the office on Monday,
you can start your new job.

Really?

-Anything else?
-I've been waiting a long time.

Coming right up. One moment.
Bro, calm. Can't you see I'm busy?

-Who are they?
-I ordered two cheese soufflés.

Right. Two?

-A
frikandel.
-I know. It's coming right up.

-Extra sauce? Amine?
-I need to pick up my kids.

-As if I'm preparing for a famine.
-Why are you walking away?

Where's everything?

I'm out there fighting
and you're in here playing
Tetris.

-What's this?
-I just want my food.

My car is double-parked.

-Remember when Nordin said--
-I don't want to hear that name.

We don't need that Gargamel.

Yes, we know.
But during his lunacy against us,

he said they're turning the school
into a construction project.

I thought he was talking shit,
but I hacked some websites.

-Hacking again?
-I know, I know.

But listen. Read this. This email.

It's much worse than I thought.

Come on. I'm still waiting.

We're not letting this happen.

Start doing your job.

Trunk up. Look into the audience.

The audience is there, not down there.
Now the zookeeper will come in.

Mo 3, the zookeeper? Yes, thank you.

Gee, where's the vet?

My elephant's trunk is tied into a knot.
I can't get it out myself.

-Where's Mr. Nordin?
-I need to see a bit more emotion.

A painful trunk is a problem.
So, straight back, limp trunk.

-Hatsiu!
-Okay, bless you. That was a loud sneeze.

Again, but this time with pain.
I need to feel it and I'm not feeling it.

Yes, turn it downwards.

GATHER DURING THE BREAK

Too high.
You can stop the noises. All right.

-Come, the smart board is in here.
-Come. Here.

What's up, marmots? This is your teacher.

I want to tell you something.

I'm sad I won't be able
to finish this year,

but you'll do great in secondary school.

And be glad you're leaving that school
full of crooks.

Anyway, you don't know this,
but I never wanted to become a teacher.

I had to. I was forced into it.

By my mom.

Old people need to listen
to their moms too sometimes.

Even though I was forced into it,
you guys have made my year.

It was awesome. You're all…

You're good kids.

You taught me how to use TikTok.

You taught me
how Cristiano Ronaldo yells
"siu!"

-Right, Wesley? You rat.
-Wes.

Little lion.

Most of all, you taught me patience.
I really want to…

thank you for that.

Give it your all. I'll do the same.

All right.

-Were you going to ask me something or…
-Yes.

-Well?
-What?

Then ask.

I've got spreadsheets,
a desk, a chair, a laptop, but…

What's the idea?

-It's hard, right?
-What?

Asking for help.

-Buzz off.
-Just ask.

I'm just not good at this.

"It's so hard.
I'm Nordin, I work at a company now

and it's so hard. What do I do?"

Were you like that as a teacher?

Are you crazy?

-Teaching was a breeze.
-Right.

All right, I'll help you.

Okay? Don't worry.
I'll teach you everything.

Step one. Find the cafeteria.

-Wait, you already did.
-Fuck off, man.

My name is Malveus
Will you sing with us?

There's a knot in the trunk

Of the elephant

-Hey.
-Calm down!

-Don't get spooked. Relax.
-I've got pepper spray!

-No threats.
-And I know Krav Maga!

-Yes… Wait, seriously?
-Yes.

-You're working on the musical, right?
-How do you know?

I'm the one who wrote it
and I changed a few lines.

Things I thought would be more suitable.

You're Margreet van der Bloem?
Yeah, right.

-This is important. You have to change it.
-I can't.

I'd have to inform the management
and I don't want to lose my job.

If you don't change it,
you'll lose your job anyway.

-What do you mean? Calm down!
-Read it.

Fuck. What are you doing, bro?

Darn. Sorry. I didn't mean to.

-Do I need to call someone?
-Who would you call?

We came very far. We worked our asses off.

But no bonuses, unfortunately.
Maybe at the end of the year.

But I do want to make a toast to you all.

-Cheers, to this acquisition.
-Cheers.

To money.

What are you doing here?

Stop.

Enough.

Stop. Enough.

Enough.

-Enough.
-Damn, sir. Cool house.

-Can we go inside?
-Are you crazy?

-Do I look like Michael Jackson?
-Who?

What are you doing here?

-We want to inviting you to our musical.
-It's really fun.

I don't feel like musicals.

CHAOS AT THE ZOO
THE MUSICAL

You have to come. I play the tree.

Come on.

-He plays the tree.
-I'm not in the mood.

-We came to your house and everything.
-Come on.

-Sir.
-Do you know how much we rehearsed?

-Why aren't you coming?
-It's not long.

-We've got cool stuff.
-We practiced so much.

We were looking forward to this.

All right. Enough.

If you leave now before the neighbors
think I'm a weirdo, I promise I'll come.

-Siu!
-Promise.

Let's go.

Four, three, two,

one, zero.

-What are you doing here?
-The kids invited me. Come on.

You're clearly not welcome here anymore.

Can't you find a tiny spot
in that rotten heart to let me in?

Consider it your funeral.

-What did he want?
-To see the musical. Whatever.

-What are you doing here?
-Turn around. Vera might recognize me.

That's why I came like this.

With glasses and a hat.
I look like one of the parents.

Okay, bro. Guys. I'm sorry.

I was too caught up in my own shit.
It wasn't about you.

-Okay?
-You were right. You called us children.

But listen…

-We helped those kids.
-Test, one, two, three.

Hello, yes. Is it working?

It's working. Wow.

-A lot of people. Lights, please.
-I'm on it.

-Lights.
-Yes.

I'm sorry.

Yes, thank you.

Ladies and gentlemen…

Wow. Welcome to the final musical.

A very important moment for me and…

Especially the children, actually.

I said "for me." We'll be watching
a wonderfully written musical

which they've rehearsed a lot.

Phones off, please. Otherwise…

Enjoy
Chaos at the Zoo!

Mo 3, action.

WELCOME
DE EKSTER ZOO

A brand-new day at the zoo.

Let's see how the animals are doing.

What's wrong?
You look like your mothers died.

I have a knot in my trunk
and I haven't slept well.

It's much worse. As you know, my pen

is next to the zoo principal's office.

I heard her say something terrible.

I heard it too,
because I'm a tree with ears.

Siu!

Really, you dirty animals?
Henk, sit. What did you hear me say?

That we, the dirty animals,
should leave the zoo.

What? Seriously?

Yes, too bad for you,
but the zoo is closing.

-What?
-What?

There's a new
construction project on the way.

-What?
-That upsets us, doesn't it?

Yes.

-Very much.
-Yes.

Even worse, this is what's going to happen
to De Ekster in real life.

Yes, just ask that dirty snitch
in the back. Our principal Vera.

It's true, isn't it?

-You're kidding.
-No way.

-Seriously?
-No.

The kids are just joking. It's…

What a fun, interactive musical.

Why are you lying?
She made a nasty deal with the city.

Next year,
De Ekster won't be here anymore.

No, and it's even worse. She purposefully
keeps our study advice low.

To get those subsidies
and pay for this stupid plan.

-What?
-She's ruining our future.

That bitch, Vera, gave me
vocational training as advice.

-When you can easily go to pre-university.
-Easily.

-Wait, is this true?
-No.

-Yes.
-No.

Yes. 100% true.

If it's up to her,
we won't have eight classrooms next year,

but 24 new apartments instead.

Even worse… Get this.
They've been doing this for years.

Just like her dad before her.

Giving low study advice on purpose.
Since I was a preschooler.

She doesn't just get subsidies,
but also donations from generous families.

This dog just wants a free apartment.

At your expense.

Just like that pervert, Mr. Henk.

-I'm not a pervert.
-Pervert.

Pervert!

Superstars, all of you. Warriors.

I love you, I swear.

How did you pull this off?
Is she from the CIA?

I'm not.

Let's say, your buddies came by
and gave her a hand.

-My buddies?
-Yes, Souf and Amine.

But we never would've done it
without you, sir.

Wrong. You would.
You were just being yourselves today.

But we did snitch.

If it's Vera, someone who looks like her
or acts like her, you can snitch.

All right. This year it was the zoo.

But next year, in middle school,
you'll meet real hyenas.

Nasty people.

Let's say you go to that school.
We arrive there

and there's a bunch of 8th,
9th or 10th year students

acting tough
towards you or one of you buddies.

-What do we do?
-We get their ass.

-What?
-We get their ass.

Imagine there's a bunch of teachers
giving lower grades on purpose.

-What do we do?
-We get their ass.

-What?
-We get their ass.

Nordin? Hey.

-We had no idea.
-None.

We didn't know
what Vera and Henk were up to.

I believe you.

You caused a major change here.

And I don't mean all this stuff.

Your class used to be called
the Guantanamo Babies.

Tonight, they weren't just brave,
they also showed who they really are.

-And it's thanks to you.
-You made champions out of them.

-That's what I'm trying to say.
-I only did my best.

What we're trying to say is…

We want you to consider coming back.

-If the school survives.
-It has to.

But I can't do that.
I was supposed to stay for a year.

Quite a crazy year.

If it's up to that bitch,
she's not coming back.

But we'll need a new principal.

Maybe we're looking at him right now.

I can't. I've got other plans.

Think about it.
You don't need to decide now.

As long as you know that the door
to the teachers' lounge is always open.

Wide open.

Nordin.

Which color is better for our new logo?
We're thinking the one on the right.

I think left.

Yes, that's what we were thinking.
That's what I meant.

I thought you wanted right.

-The right is racist.
-Oh.

Yes, of course.

I want to increase the budget by 37%.

-I don't think that's a good idea--
-Smart.

You're looking at the long-term.
We should aim for that.

What if we replace
our electrical vehicles with horses?

Very surprising. Refreshing.

-Go to work by horse and carriage.
-Certainly. Environmentally friendly, fun.

All the employees under 5'5"
will ride a pony.

-Very good.
-That's what they're for.

-Are you right-handed, Emily?
-Deborah. Left-wing, but right-handed.

Let's go with the left.

-Do you want a cappuccino?
-Right.

Left. Don't ask me anymore.

-So that's a no?
-Yes.

Debby.

Here, take this to Choukri. Go.

What if we forbid women
from sitting at the office?

-Standing tables are very popular.
-Very good.

I've got one more idea
that will take our company to the moon.

But I need your help. Pay attention now.

What if we put pork in our sausages?

-A very refreshing proposal.
-Yes.

-Still delicious.
-And still call it halal.

-If you look here…
-I've been thinking about this for a week.

-Yes?
-I'm convinced.

That price is going up. 100%.

Nordin, what do you think?

Yes, 100%.

-If we do that, we'll have Q4 next year…
-Right.

-We'll laugh our asses off.
-Right.

Mom, do you have a minute?

If it's about tomorrow's meeting,
you're still going.

It's about something else.

What is it? I'm busy.
Look how much I have to do.

-Me too, but I have to go.
-What? Where?

Look.

Everyone treats me like a king here.
They're kissing my ass.

And I don't get a thing
about those Excel sheets.

-Nordin.
-I'm sorry. I'm always thinking about you.

I love you and I'll always love you.
I don't need to tell you that.

Really. But I have to go to De Ekster.

De Ekster?

But your class is about to graduate.

Yes, but that's the great thing about it.
There's always a new class.

They'll get ripped off as well.

They're taking a turn
with 50 mph on a fatbike too.

Who will teach them
not to send their bank card to people?

Or not to buy online courses?

These kids think
sausages contain actual meat.

Who's going to protect them?

I am. Mr. Nordin.

Lesson one. Snitches get stiches.

You're so ugly.

Who was it?
