Once in a while,they taught you something.

But not that often.

And you never really knew them

Sure he was tough,but you had to respect him,

Correct.

Heh-heh.
47
00:02:09,729 --> 00:02:10,895
And the remainder?

50
00:02:16,269 --> 00:02:22,073
The answer is 12y + 3.

Okay, so I wasn't exactlyGod's gift to polynomials.

It's not an "a."

It's an a-minus.

Nothing.

Yes, sir.

It was aboutthe last place on earth
387
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,620
I wanted to be at that moment.
388
00:18:43,622 --> 00:18:46,289
Something odd has occurred.
389
00:18:46,291 --> 00:18:48,158
Perhaps you can
shed some light on it.
390
00:18:50,329 --> 00:18:54,164
And somehow I knewas soon as I saw that envelope.
391

Midterm examinations.

All of them.

What?

00:19:08,247 --> 00:19:12,649
Apparently, Mr. Collins
graded these tests

the weekend that, uh...
398
00:19:16,254 --> 00:19:19,256
Well, in any event,
399
00:19:19,258 --> 00:19:22,058
it seems yours was misplaced.

Oh.

00:19:27,233 --> 00:19:30,267
The question now is,
what do we do about it?
402
00:19:30,269 --> 00:19:31,601
You need a grade.

00:19:33,606 --> 00:19:36,940

00:19:36,942 --> 00:19:39,009
No, sir.

409
00:20:02,768 --> 00:20:05,602
As I took that test,I thought about...
410
00:20:05,604 --> 00:20:07,704
A lot of things...
411
00:20:07,706 --> 00:20:09,873
about how I knew him

and yet, I didn't...
413
00:20:12,044 --> 00:20:15,212
About how he treated melike a man

and how I'd actedlike a child...
415
00:20:18,317 --> 00:20:20,417
About how I let him down
416
00:20:20,419 --> 00:20:22,619
and now I wouldn't.
417
00:20:22,621 --> 00:20:24,288
The thing is,
418
00:20:24,290 --> 00:20:27,424
even though I could almostfeel him in the room,
419
00:20:27,426 --> 00:20:30,294
I knew I didn't need himfor the answers...
420
00:20:30,296 --> 00:20:31,761
