Five, four, three, two, one.

Houston, we have liftoff. We do have
liftoff.

Listen.

Did you tell Lisa to stop seeing me?

No. Then who did?

Nobody. Lisa, I'm a nice guy. I deserve
some kind of explanation.

Is that a goodnight kiss or are you
going to invite me in?

You've got big dreams.

You want fame.

Fame comes.

And right here is where you start
paying.

You sweat.

Okay, okay, Natalia.

I can see that she's beautiful.

So why don't you do something about it?

Remember, you're Italian.

I don't know. I said the first word, you
know. If you don't say the right first

word, you don't have a prayer.

You say hello.

Now.

Is it my turn to talk?

I hope so.

You're probably expecting someone.

Expecting somebody? No. Why?

Well, if you're not, then I can clear
this other set up and give you more room

to work. Thank you.

You write music?

A little.

How about you? Do you know music?

Do I know music?

Do I know music?

Music is my life.

I actually said that.

I won't tell anyone.

What was the nice meeting?

We haven't actually met.

Oh, yeah.

Bruno Martelli.

Lisa Connors.

Nice meeting you. Nice meeting you,
Bruno.

So, how'd you do?

Met some men.

Give me this, will you?

Bruno, go do what you do best.

Why'd you stop?

Why are you recording this?

What's this for?

That's a tape recorder that I use to
transcribe my notes for my work.

So that the minor sixth becomes the next
subdominant chord after the cadence.

May I?

Major chord of apology from Bruno
Martelli to Lisa Connors.

I'm sorry. I...

I was way out of line. You can record
anything you want and be flattered.

I think it's nice that you care so much
about your music.

I think it's nice that you care that I
care.

Hello.

Not in Hernandez.

Hold it.

When you've got a really big scene,
right, is it better to rehearse it a lot

times or just charge ahead?

It depends on the scene.

That's no help, Miss Hernandez. Answer
the question, please.

I just did.

You.

A lot of people think too much
rehearsing can get you stale.

Sometimes it's just better to go for it.

Go for it.

Yes, sir, go for it.

Thanks.

I will.

Mr. Wood.

There you are.

Here I am.

Again.

Still.

I've been looking all over for you.

You have?

You bet.

Just a minute ago you tucked your head
in the door. I was right here.

Then was then. Now is now.

We have to talk.

Mr. Morlock, if you want to talk about
my objections to your cuts in the drama

program... Heavens, no. I have no
objection to your objections.

This is an entirely different matter.

What?

Coffee?

Thanks.

Miss Sherwood, uh... As you know,
sometimes we have, uh...

obligations to fill in the name of duty,
such as functions to attend that would

be very helpful to the school.

Now, situations have arisen that I think
would be very beneficial to you.

Chance to meet the entire board and
representatives from all the schools in

district.

Now, they're giving a governor's ball,
and I think that you should attend.

Well, that would be wonderful.

Thank you for thinking of me.

There's just one more thing.

What?

You'd have to go with me.

You'd have to be my date for the
evening.

Just as friends, of course.

That would be fine.

I know that you don't... You would.

Yes. When is it?

Friday, 7 .30.

Okay.

See you then.

Bye.

I never get... Give her her coffee.

Believe it or not, I hope to make your
tenure here as painless as possible for

both of us.

I will write out my lesson plans for the
entire course, familiarize you with the

grading system, and try to find you some
place to work.

But you may have to settle for the broom
closet.

I expect you to be here on time, finish
your assignment, and ask questions.

But first, I have a question to ask.

In my effort... to appear businesslike.

I've neglected to ask my new student
teacher her name.

Lisa Connors, sir.

Well, Lisa Connors, let's try to make
this an interesting semester, shall we?

Count on it.

Three, two, one.

Houston, we have liftoff. We do have
liftoff.

Yo, Martelli.

Hey, Bruno.

How you doing?

How you been?

Yeah, how's it going?

What brings you back to the scene of all
of our crimes?

Let's see, the food. I really miss the
food.

Does not compute.

Okay, Swarovski wanted me to go to
rehearsal, and when he beckons, I

Still. Must be Pavlovian training.

Oh.

Hey, Frodo!

Hi, Holly, how you doing?

Hey, I love the music you wrote for the
show.

Special stuff.

Thank you.

Yeah, man, wait till you see what Miss
Grant put together.

This show's gonna tear the roof off.
It's gonna blow the walls out, and it's

gonna shatter the windows.

No, really, it's the best stuff you've
ever written. 10 ,000 Grammy Awards.

I can handle that.

Well? Well, what?

Friday night.

Dinner with Morlock. How'd it go?

Oh, that.

Uh, would he talk shop the whole time?

I didn't notice.

That says it all.

Well, it was a favor.

I mean, he had to take somebody.

I must say, it was an impressive event,
though. I met a lot of people.

Superintendent of schools.

City Council. Ooh, my girl has hit the
big time.

So what's next?

Next?

Nothing's next.

Nothing? Nothing.

Well, I think it's only fair that I warn
you.

Warlock was humming this morning.

Humming? Mm -hmm.

You're making that up. Girl, if I'm
lying, I'm flying. I'm telling you, the

was humming tenderly.

Will you get out of here?

I don't need this on Monday morning.

Okay.

Any degree of the scale may be preceded
by its own dominant harmony without

weakening the fundamental tonality.

Now I see what you mean. I thought it
was a modulation.

It's a little confusing.

Thanks, Miss Collins.

Hey, I gotta go warm up. I've got a
rehearsal in the auditorium after lunch.

ya. Bye -bye.

Well?

Well what?

Well, how'd I do?

If I tell you that you perform well,
you'd get lazy and poop out on me.

If I tell you that you did poorly, you'd
lose confidence.

So... So there isn't anything in
between?

Not usually.

Don't forget to turn out the lights.

Gotta go.

See you later.

Some countries, that's considered a
compliment.

I guess you can't say the cafeteria
hasn't maintained its standards of

grossness. Yeah. Somebody ought to tell
them they can't put lettuce on top of

ravioli and call it pasta salad.

Lisa?

What'd you say?

What's that girl walking over there in
her red dress?

Connors. Lisa Connors?

Yeah, I'm not too familiar with
teachers' first names, man.

Teacher? Yeah, she's Swarovski's new
student teacher.

The best in you and me, words and music
by Bruno Martelli.

Here we go, baby.

To your far tomorrow's sky.

To the horizon.

That's shining all our hearts. In that
endless empty sky.

There is a promise.

Walk to your further than you have been
before.

Enjoy and learn from pain.

Learn from the questions that make you
want more.

Now I burn like the sun in celebration.

It's just a start and invitation.

to be.

Come join me, hey my friend, to find the
best in you and me.

You're far tomorrow's sight,

to the horizon,

that shining light, in that endless
empty sky.

He doesn't even stick around to see the
last piece of music he wrote as a

student at his school.

Maybe that's why I left Danny.

Because it was the last piece of music
he did write as a student.

He's good, isn't he?

He's very good. Who is he?

He's a friend of mine that works at this
coffee house that I go to sometimes.

Dare I ask how much of a friend this
friend is?

You better not.

I'm already beginning to blush.

Is everything okay?

Well, Miss Connors, You promised to make
this an interesting semester.

Right now, I'd say we have all the
ingredients.

I have reason to believe that Miss Lisa
Connors is involved with Bruno Martelli.

What?

Involved?

Romantically involved.

Oh, good for him. Good for both of them,
I guess.

Miss Sherwood, in a world more perfect
than this, I would agree with you.

Unfortunately, I see trouble ahead.

Why?

Because teacher -student relationships
are not in the curriculum. That's why.

Bruno isn't a student anymore.

Technically, that's true. But all his
friends are. There could be problems.

I think it's none of our business.

She thinks it's none of our business.

Lydia, you're awfully quiet.

I'm with Benjamin on this one.

Bruno is out of the school.

But his friends aren't.

Look, it's hard enough trying to get
through to these kids. Five and six

a day.

You add some hooky -tokey in there and
see how much learning gets done.

Exactly.

You guys got to promise me you won't
come into animals tonight.

I mean you.

Then if those are the rules, I don't
want to play.

Don't. Mama Tula, sit down.

No.

Sit.

Praise them, Doris. That's how they
learn.

Cool, cool.

Uh, Bruno, I think you've got company.

Oh, yeah, it looks that way.

What I would do with that... Stay dead.

Rick, can you do me a favor and watch my
station?

Oh, yeah, sure, buddy. Go ahead.

Good evening, Miss Connors.

Mr. Martelli, why didn't you tell me you
were still in high school?

I'm not.

You were until a couple of weeks ago.

Why didn't you tell me you were a
teacher?

I don't know.

It didn't seem important at the time.

Well, it is now.

Not to me.

But it sure seems to be a big deal to
some other people.

Look, I don't know about you.

I didn't get to be head waiter at
Caruso's by listening to what other

think. You understand?

Mm -hmm.

You know what I think?

What do you think?

I think you should kiss me.

No. Mm -hmm.

Mm -hmm. Oh, wait. Yeah.

All right, all right. I refuse it.

Bruno?

There's something I... I want to ask
you.

Is that a good night kiss or are you
going to invite me in?

Andiamo. Uh -huh.

There's some kids in school in there.

I know.

Some of them are your students.

Not at 8 .30 p .m. they're not.

I like your style.

Thank you.

Miss Sherwood, you got a moment?

I was just going to the library.

Oh, listen, I realize you didn't have a
very good time at that dinner.

I had a fine time, Mr. Moaner. Oh, the
dinner, yes, but me, no. I mean, I

realize I wasn't exactly good company
and we didn't have a lot to talk about,

but... Well, the point of all this is
I've got this luncheon I have to go to

next week and, you know, just... Running
into you like this, I thought that,

well,

you know, even though I'm not exactly
your type and we're just friends, sort

Well, I thought I'd ask you to go to the
luncheon, but I know you probably don't

want to and I don't want to impose on
you, so never mind. Just forget it.

the whole thing. Mr.

Moore. No, no, listen, please.

I mean it.

Don't give it a moment's thought, okay?

Mr. Moore.

I know that you and some of the other
teachers

regard me as the enemy.

Miss Leonard?

Yes, sir?

I'm looking for your paper on
Counterpoint. Am I wasting my time?

Uh, yes, sir.

And why am I wasting my time?

Um, because I kind of haven't finished
it yet. I can hand it in to you

I'm not interested in tomorrow. It was
due yesterday.

Well, see, we've kind of spent a couple
late nights this week.

And so I figured it'd be okay if I
turned it in late.

How did you figure that?

Well,

I figured because I was with Miss
Connors that that would be okay.

Well, you figured wrong. I'm giving you
a zero on the assignment.

But that's not fair.

There seems to be a lot of that going
around.

I hear it got pretty rough today.

Yeah.

How do I get myself into these things?

If I had a dollar... No, scratch that.

If I had a dime for every time I've said
those exact words, I'd be one very

wealthy woman.

Do you have any answers?

No.

Not a one.

Well, what would you do if you were me?

Lisa, I would sit at this very table and
say, Lord, how do

I get myself into these things?

You're a lot of help.

I hate to tell you, but I've got a
problem of my own.

Do you want to hear something really
stupid?

What? I have a date with him tonight.

With Bruno?

That's the one.

Is that good or bad?

I have absolutely no idea.

I hope we're going to be friends for a
very long time.

I hope you're right.

Because that would mean that I'd be
staying here.

And I want that very much.

Well, I have papers to grade.

Me too.

Miss Sherwood? Uh -huh?

You know what hurting like this is like,
don't you?

I've been there.

From time to time.

Hey, Martelli.

Yeah?

I'm going out the back. You lock up.

Okay.

Say, I didn't see your lady friend here
tonight.

I thought she was going to be a regular.

Yeah, me too.

And then he sloped on off.

Loneliest man in the world.

Wait a minute, what are we talking
about?

Did Morlock ask you to go or not?

That's what I can't figure out.

I think he did, but I never got a chance
to answer.

Well, do you want to go?

No.

But I just couldn't tell him that.

He was so insecure.

I mean, he asked me.

Then he proceeded to give me a list of
reasons why he thought I'd reject him.

He wants so much to be loved.

Poor man.

He really put his feelings on the line.

Poor man.

We are talking about Quentin Moorlach.

He had to be there.

I tell you, he broke my heart.

It's Connors.

Bruno.

You remembered my name. I take that as a
good sign.

I'm sorry about last night.

Mm -hmm. What happened?

Nothing happened. I just decided not to
come.

Decided not to come.

Decided not to phone. Why?

Please, Bruno, this isn't the time or
the place. Yeah, well, whatever happened

to... I don't care what anybody thinks.

It's not that simple.

Okay, all right. Is it someone else?

Yeah.

Me.

I don't know what that means.

I don't either.

Lisa, I'm a nice guy. I deserve some
kind of explanation.

Well, I don't have one, okay?

I don't have an explanation.

Mr. Sharofsky was right.

Mr. Sharofsky was right? What does that
mean? What does he have to do with this?

He said that sometimes people have to
make a choice.

It isn't simple, and it isn't fair, and
there isn't an explanation.

But you have to decide what's important
and make a choice.

I'm sorry, I gotta go.

Still needs a lot of work, folks. Back
in five minutes.

Mr. Sharovsky.

Hi, Martelli. How'd you like it?

It was too slow. What can we got to
talk?

What's wrong with right here?

I'm no longer a student. Is that
correct?

To the best of my knowledge.

And technically, you're no longer my
teacher. Is that also right?

Technically.

Now, will you tell me what the hell is
going on here? Did you tell Lisa to stop

seeing me?

No. Then who did?

Nobody. What I told her was that she had
to make a choice. You or this school.

And that is true. Why?

Why did I tell her?

Because it was either me now or Morlock
eventually. And believe me, I did you a

favor.

Why did she have to choose?

Because it was affecting her teaching.
And she is a teacher. A damn good one.

Yeah, how long?

I'm a composer.

A damn good one. Or so you've told me.

And that's the way it's going to be. And
since I'm no longer in the school, I'm

going to pull my music out of the
showcase.

And if there are people that get hurt by
that, well, that's too bad. They'll

have to get used to it because I
certainly have.

I wonder what's happening.

I don't know, but it doesn't look good.

Doesn't look good at all.

All right, people, let me have your
attention, please.

We're not going to have any notes today.

All right.

Because it doesn't look like we're going
to have a showcase.

What are you talking about?

Why not?

Well, I don't know all the details, but
it seems that Bruno Martelli has

withdrawn his permission for us to use
his music in our show.

Mr. Marlott, can you spare a minute?

Well, certainly.

What can I do for you?

It's about the other day. Oh, that.

You mentioned a luncheon, and I think
you felt I wouldn't go with you.

Sit down, Mr. Sherwood.

I just want to apologize for that. No,
it's all right.

I just want you to know that I'd be
happy to go.

That's not necessary, really.

But I want to.

Well, I just don't feel comfortable with
your thinking that you're viewed as the

enemy. I mean, I think maybe we've... I

think I've been unfair.

Well, not unfair, maybe, but a

little quick to judge.

may be surprised to know that I agree
with your sentiments about martelling

Connors woman.

None of our affairs stay out of it
completely, right?

I wasn't aware you knew anything about
that.

I'm in a school this size. A grapevine's
always working.

Well, yes, but I thought we did a pretty
good job.

Mr. Barlock, this is Bravo One.

Are you ready to listen in on Mrs.
Flanner's Spanish club?

They're about ready to call the meeting.

Not now, Mrs. Berg.

Are you sure?

Mrs. Berg, go home. We've ceased
operations for today.

That's how you knew about Bruno and
Lisa. You were listening in.

You're going to tear that thing out,
aren't you? You bet.

And that's a lie.

Isn't it?

Probably.

Moloch, how tall are you?

Almost six feet.

I didn't know they could stack it that
high.

Miss Connors, I know you're into
composing, and I don't know whether you

or not, but we've lost the music to the
production number.

I was wondering if you'd have anything
we might use.

No, she doesn't write music like that.

Besides, there's not enough time to
learn a whole new number.

You know, Miss Connors, it's not like
Bruno would do this.

He's just trying to get back at the
people who hurt him.

Yeah, but there wasn't us.

Thought you people said what a great guy
this Martelli's supposed to be.

He is a great guy.

Can't prove it by me.

Can't prove it by any of us the way
things are now.

Miss Connors?

If you don't happen to be going straight
home, and you happen to bump into

someone we all know and care about,
would you give him a hug from us?

Because he's got to be going through
some kind of pain.

How are you?

Medicine, medicine.

I, uh, heard you pulled your music from
the showcase.

That's right.

I was thinking about us today.

I was doing some thinking myself.

I was thinking that we were kind of
lucky.

I was thinking that even though this
wasn't our time to be together, that

someday it would be.

That maybe someday you'd be working
somewhere, singing your songs,

and I'd walk in and we'd get to know
each other all over again.

Sounds like a happy ending.

Yeah, well, I'm kind of big on happy
endings.

What were you thinking?

I was thinking that... You got a couple
of minutes?

One look in your eyes, kind of
fantasized a tour.

Nothing serious, I didn't have a thing
to lose.

I never knew I loved guys.

Could make your body temperature rise.

Though what seemed like a fire was a
false alarm.

We woke up by station with a false
alarm.

Cupid's on vacation and there's false
alarm.

We'll turn it into something next time.

Midnight wandering, lonely and a little
scared.

I lost a part of me, something I never
knew of there.

That nothing ventured, nothing gained.

It sounds good, but it's... I

never

knew this was a false alarm.

Every time we kissed, there was a false
alarm.

The lights were on, but no one was
there.

We should have known that we didn't have
a prayer.

We heard the warnings well enough.

This might have been the answer to a
dare.

But did I have to fall in love like the
victim of a

false alarm?

No answer to this riddle.

Call the false alarm.

Yet we're laughing in the middle of a
false alarm.

I thought I did better than that.

You did.

The dimes are for a purpose.

What purpose?

The first one is so that you can call
the school and tell them that they can

your music.

The guy that I fell in love with isn't
selfish with his talents.

That'll get used.

And what's the second one for?

It's, uh... So you can call me in a
couple of years.

When the rest of the world grows up to
our level.
