Oh, I literally hate her. What are you doing?

I want to prove to you I'm serious about this. About you.

You two should consider standing in the election.

Do you ever think about Dad?

All the time.

Anything you want to tell me?

Why should there be?

Happy birthday, son!

I know you wanted that jacket, but maybe next year.

We got you this one instead.

It's the same style.

It's just got a different name on it. Thanks.

I can't believe my baby is 14.

Well, go on then.

Open it.

No way.

Thank you.

Guard it with your life.

Cost of fortune.

Best birthday ever.

Wake up in the morning, we ride. We're not only ride -calling, yeah, we ride.

When we get up in our feelings, do what a phoenix do.

So of course, we ride. When we go and get to class, we ride. When we fuck

the ash, we ride.

All my friends gonna see this through, cause we just do what a phoenix do, we

ride.

Happy birthday.

Thanks, Ronnie.

Look at this jacket my mum and dad bought me. It's mine, isn't it? You look

really cool.

Thanks.

Callie, happy birthday.

Thanks so much.

Mr Stewart had these bulkers.

Lucky I got away with detention.

No one said protesting was easy.

I'll see you around, yeah?

What did he want?

Nothing.

Why exactly are you doing this?

In the baked beans on brown toast corner, Polly, lovely girl,

hardworking, would make an excellent class president.

In the cross me and you're dead corner, Cassidy, popular, delightful,

self -centered, lazy, and Not the brightest lipstick in a makeup bag.

What about the other kind of it?

No chance.

Look at them.

No, I've decided class president wants B.

Oh, you've decided.

Very democratic.

Why?

I want to see if I can take Regina.

Mean Girls from Turner and Thune.

Elle from Legally Blonde.

You need to start watching different films.

What about The Manifestos?

Because.

I really, really care. That's why a vote for me is a vote for you.

Happy birthday, mate.

I'm going to buy you the biggest egg batch you can fit in your gob.

Don't you know why they're bothering with an election?

Everyone around here's a massive liar.

It's not regulation uniform, so tell your parents to call me.

That's not fair. You know the rules, and if you don't, I can arrange a special

detention for you to memorise them.

So, can I wear my jacket just for today? It's my birthday.

Happy birthday.

Just for today.

What about all the people that don't follow you and stuff?

They don't matter.

But they vote.

And if they're not voting for you, they'll probably vote for Polly. She

beat me.

Can't you see we're busy in here?

Go and cry someplace else, please.

What part of campaign HQ don't you understand?

I wouldn't have had to ask twice.

People do what I tell them to do.

All right, then.

Whoever I point to, you've got to convince them to vote for you.

Is that it?

Well, in that case, whoever I point to, you have to ask for a picture with them.

Is that it?

You're on.

Watch where you're going.

Can I please get you to vote for me, babe?

I'm all about minority groups.

This minority would rather drink a vomit smoothie.

Babe.

Photo time.

You better tell your damn girlfriend to stay out of my way. Whoa.

I mean, tell her yourself.

I mean, your mouth seems to work all right, like you're...

Maynard, can I have a word?

Uh, hello mate.

Does Reece seem okay to you?

Yeah. Why?

What have you done?

Nothing. So, is there anything going on at school and stuff?

Probably just hormones.

Okay.

Well, thanks for letting me hang at yours the other night.

No worries. She's half -trained.

Great day for a run.

Be determined.

Be pokey.

Do it to prove all of them wrong.

Come on lads, I've laughed you twice.

What are you doing, Nathan?

Nothing, ma 'am.

I was in here earlier and I can't find my keys.

Thought I might have left it in here.

Are they here?

Get going, then.

Don't forget to vote.

Lost my key. I've never heard such rubbish.

Rocking to my little hideaway.

I come here when I want some privacy.

Now, tell me everything.

Oh, um, I'm saving it for Khaled.

Or Ruth.

Or is he, anyway?

Not sure.

I'm posing in his new jacket, probably.

Oh, yeah, his new jacket.

Shouldn't you be saying something motivational to me?

Like what?

I don't know how.

I've got this in the bag and I've got no problem winning it. Who got this all in

the bag? There's no problem you winning it.

That didn't help.

Even yourself.

Good afternoon, everyone.

Thank you to our candidate and for everyone who submitted questions.

And for those who made lewd remarks, I recognize your handwriting. You'll be

getting a visit from me this afternoon.

Right.

Let's get our first candidate onto the stage.

Michael Gate.

Why am I doing this?

I should stick to things I'm good at, like clarinet or sugarcraft.

My mouth's very dry.

I can't... Hi,

I'm Michael.

I think everyone should vote for me because... Enough shock talk. Tell me

started. Your first kiss.

Promise you won't say a word.

Never.

Christmas party.

You did.

I'll never look at little Robbie in the same light again.

You kept that quiet.

It's because we weren't together.

Imagine if the students found out Miss Benson and Mr Edwards were a thing.

Almost a thing.

If you can define what we are, were is a thing.

Right,

next up we have Cassidy Dillon.

First question here, pretty straightforward.

Why do you want to be class president?

Why do I want to be class president?

I'd like to be the bridge between students and staff.

Sometimes I feel as if there is miscommunication between the two

Obviously the staff hold the power in this dynamic.

An amazing makeover on her personality, hasn't it?

What personality?

She's got an emoji where her brain should be.

Where's Sam?

He was doing him a cigar a few minutes ago.

Advocate. Cassidy thinks advocate is what posh people have on toast.

Something's not right.

Even so, I can't believe it.

I'm going to go find out.

Polly, keep your head up.

I ain't over till the tone deaf girl sings and no one needs to hear my Olivia

Rodrigo.

Education plays such an important role in the types of lives we live, the types

of jobs we get.

It determines our future.

Sit back down now.

I will do my utmost to represent the students of this school. I will do my

utmost to represent the students of this school.

I will do my utmost to represent the students of this school too.

Now

what you gonna do?

Know this, girl.

If you have bruised me, I swear I'll sue.

Get on with it.

Who do you think you're talking to?

I can take as much time as I like.

Alright, fine.

If you vote for me, I'll put an end to school uniform.

Okay, okay, calm down.

Thank you, you have not put an end to school uniform. That's a guarantee.

You lot push about enough as it is.

Cassidy Dillon, everyone.

And that was it.

I haven't seen him to this day.

I've sometimes seen what could have been, but I haven't.

I've been unswervingly single ever since.

You've had no luck on the dating site?

Pick and mix.

They should call it desperate and doubtless.

This is what happens when you dedicate everything to your career.

Especially this ungrateful shower.

Yeah, but some of them have got seriously tough home lives. Yeah, well,

maybe, but not all of them.

I mean, take Kasim, for instance.

You mean Khalid?

Oh, Kasim, Khalid, problem child with a capital P.

And yet his parents are a lovely couple.

I don't know what they've done to deserve him.

He seems OK to me.

He's got some seriously impressive tech skills.

Not much you could teach him.

He's clever in the wrong way.

This morning, he turns up in the most ridiculous jacket, completely against

regulations.

Yeah, a few sly words to Stuart. Of course, if he lets him off, I wouldn't

him. I'd hate to get on the wrong side of you.

You wait till they make your permanent head.

We will do lunch in my office.

Once I got rid of all those football magazines and the smell of steak bake.

I'm just passing on the message.

Nathan's got your jacket.

He says if you want it back, you have to meet him behind the kitchens after

school.

I won't try and ban school uniforms.

I think that all of us wearing the same uniform gives us unity.

Makes us one.

I know better than most what it's like to stand alone.

Maybe.

Sometimes.

We all do.

Instead of focusing on the things that separate us, let's work on what brings

together.

If you vote for me, I will work really, really hard for all of you.

Whatever music you listen to or hair conditioner you use, I promise I will

in any way I can.

That's it.

Thank you, Erie Hoffman.

Right, before we all vote, can we give it up for all of our candidates?

A bit of custody, right?

A bit of custody, aren't you? A bit of custody?

You can raise any bit of custody.

A bit of custody?

Let's take a picture.

Oh, that's so nice.

Got a toaster.

Sorry, Summer, but I'm no snitch.

Daisy, we have to do something.

I mean, what happens if Cassidy wins?

I love it.

Look at her.

She'll be even more unbearable than she already is.

I know what you did.

What did you do?

All's fair in love and elections.

Well, if Cassidy wins, I'll tell everyone.

Darling, if she wins, I'll be happy for you to tell everybody what I achieved.

You're the greatest makeover since Legally Blonde.

We need to watch some new films.

Don't waste your breath.

Oh, and Autumn, could you make it go viral?

Brutal. Thanks.

Can I have everyone's attention, please?

Right, it was such a close run race.

We counted the ballots twice, and we're now sure of the result.

There were a total of 348 votes cast, and the breakdown is as

follows.

Michael Gates, 33 votes.

What a loser.

Peter Fernandez, 85 votes.

Cassidy Dillon, 111 votes.

And Pony Shaw, 119.

Pony, you did it. You won.

Are you smiling at?

Nothing.

There's some magic even I can't weave.

Well done.

You should congratulate her.

Anyone would think that you're happy that I... Lost?

Great contest. It was

really close. I just got... Okay.

Yep, because I let you in. If I had tried, I would have walked it home.

Come on, we're going.

Can I say that again?

I was just saying sorry.

Who are you apologising for?

You? Or your girlfriend?

Me.

I guess.

Darcy!

You're wanted.

Have you told anyone about today?

Why not?

I bet this was expensive.

Sorry, please can I have it back?

How about, don't kick your head all over, and I give you your jacket back.

Why would you do that?

Because I want you to do something for me.

What?

I want you to put a good word out for me with Rani.

Why?

Because I like her.

Rani hates bullies.

Wow.

Good job I'm not bullying you then, isn't it?

I can't believe you met me from school.

There are two birthday traditions that we will keep until you're 18.

One is burger bar breakfast and the other one is a... Now get a shift done.

The bacon's all shut and then you'll be moaning you've got no cake.

Your dad was convinced that you would leave this jacket in the canteen or

something, but I know my boy.

What are you doing?

Oh, social media.

You'll never stop me being me. Why do you have corned beef in your locker?

Tried to come back in one piece.

I still think you're weird. But challenging.

This is me, Sawa.

Right here.

What are you doing?

I'm not joking. Let me out.

Open the door.

All my friends gonna see this through cause we just do what I feel like to be

right.
