Trevor McKinney It worked!

Eugene Simonet Oh, God!

Eugene Simonet Does he always get up this early?

Arlene McKinney What?

Eugene Simonet Oh my God! This is not good. He just saw me.

Arlene McKinney It's okay.

Eugene Simonet It's not. I'm his teacher.

Trevor McKinney Now, you have to pay it forward, too! Eugene?

Eugene Simonet I think you should still call me Mr. Simonet.

Trevor McKinney You had a sleepover, didn't you?

Eugene Simonet Why don't you go back to bed?

Trevor McKinney Why?

Eugene Simonet It's too early for you to be up, and I've got to get to school anyway.

Trevor McKinney No, it's not. It's no early. No, it's a Sunday.

Eugene Simonet It's a Sunday?

Trevor McKinney Yeah.

Eugene Simonet It's a Sunday?

[to Arlene McKinney]

Arlene McKinney It's a Sunday.

Trevor McKinney So, stay. So, stay. My mom will make you breakfast. She makes great eggs.

Eugene Simonet No, I can't. You don't understand. I have a whole schedule that you don't know about. And I do it every Sunday, and now, it's all gone cuckoo-ey.

Trevor McKinney Well, all right. We'll bring everything here. Come on.

Eugene Simonet Will you please take care of him. I'll call you later, all right.

Expectations of Respect in the Classroom

Eugene Simonet Apparently, none of you have ever seen a new teacher before. I'm Mr. Simonet. Welcome to the seventh grade. Middle school. That hellish, shaky bridge you all must cross before you become members of that undyingly enviable high school elite. Now, some of you might think you can't get across this bridge fast enough. That you'd rather hold your breath, close your eyes, and not think about anything until it's all over. Well, I'm here to tell you that that is not an option in this class.

[A beat.]

Eugene Simonet Lateness. Tardiness. To be late for your first class on your first day of school. What does that indicate?

Late student I'm having a bad hair day.

Eugene Simonet Perhaps what it indicates is a lack of respect. You see, I'm going to be here everyday for you, and so I expect you to be here for me. On time. No excuses. Put that down.

[to a student taking something out]

Another student Wait.

[whispering]

Eugene Simonet Now. This class is social studies. That is you and the world. Yes, there is a world out there and even if you decide you don't want to meet it, it's still going to hit you right in the face. Believe me. So, best you start thinking about the world now and what it means to you. What does the world mean to you? Come on! A little class participation here. Is it just this class you wanna get out of? Your house? Your street? Any further any one of you wanna go than that? Yes?

[A beat.; A beat.; A beat.; A beat.; A girl raises her hand.]

Girl The mall. That's only like two miles away from me.

Eugene Simonet Well, let me ask you another question. How often do you think about things that happen outside of this town? You watch the news? Yes? No? All right, so, we're not global thinkers yet, but why aren't we?

[He points to Trevor McKinney.]

Trevor McKinney Cause we're 11.

Eugene Simonet Good point. What's your name?

Trevor McKinney Trevor.

Eugene Simonet Maybe Trevor's absolutely right. Why should we think about the world? I mean, after all, what does the world expect of us?

[to the class; He looks at Trevor for an answer.]

Trevor McKinney Expect?

Eugene Simonet Mm-hm. Of you. What does the world expect of you?

[A beat.]

Trevor McKinney Nothing.

[A beat.]

Eugene Simonet Nothing. My God, boys and girls, he's absolutely right. Nothing. I mean, here you are. You can't drive. You can't vote. You can't even go to the bathroom without a pass from me. You're stuck. Right here in the seventh grade. But not forever because one day, you'll be free. All right, but what if on that day you're free, you haven't prepared, you're not ready, and then, you look around you, and you don't like what the world is? What if the world is just a big disappointment?

[to the class; A beat.; The class cheers.]

Boy We're screwed.

Eugene Simonet Unless . . . unless you take the things that you don't like about this world, and you flip them upside down right on their ass. Don't tell you parents I used that word. And you can start that today. This is your assignment. Extra credit. It goes on all year long.

[The class laughs.; He pulls up the screen and reveals the assignment written on the blackboard behind it, which says, "Think of an idea to change our world - and put it into ACTION".; The students grumble.]

Student Oh, man....

Eugene Simonet Now, wait a minute. What, what, what's wrong with this? What's the matter? Yes?

[The girl from earlier raises her hand, and Eugene points to her.]

Girl It's like so . . .

Eugene Simonet So what? There must be a word to finish that sentence. Someone help her.

Another girl Weird".

Eugene Simonet Weird".

Another student Crazy".

Eugene Simonet Crazy".

Different girl Hard".

Another boy Bummer".

Eugene Simonet Bummer". "Hard". How about "possible"? It's possible. The realm of possibility exists where? In each of you? Here. So, you can do it. You can surprise us. It's up to you. Or, you can just sit back and let it atrophy. Atrophy. If there is a word you hear that you don't understand, there's a dictionary at the front of the room. Look it up. And there are these dictionaries, which you will carry with you at all times because in this class, we're going to learn to love words and their meanings. Any questions?

[A beat.; A beat.; A beat. He points to his head.; A beat.; A beat.; A student looks at Eugene uncertainly, and Eugene sees this.; He starts passing out another pile of dictionaries to the class.]

Trevor McKinney Yeah. So, you'll like you'll flunk us if we don't change the world?

[A beat.]

Eugene Simonet Well, no, I wouldn't do that. But you might just squeak by with a C.

[A beat.; A beat.]

Trevor McKinney What'd you ever do to change the world?

Class Whoa!

[A beat.]

Eugene Simonet Well, Trevor, I get a good night's sleep. I eat a hearty breakfast. I show up. On time. And then I pass the buck to you.

[He looks to the late student.]

Historical Reflections in a Philadelphia School

Stanley Cunningham Philadelphia is one of the oldest cities in this country. A lot of generations have lived here and died here. Almost any place you go in this city has a history and a story behind it. Even this school and the grounds it sits on. Can anyone guess what this building was used for a hundred years ago, before you went to this school, before I went to this school? Yes, Cole?

Cole Sear They used to hang people here.

Stanley Cunningham No, uh, that, mm-mm, that's not correct. Uh, where'd you hear that?

Cole Sear They'd pull the people in, crying and kissing their families goodbye. People watching would spit at them.

Stanley Cunningham Uh, Cole, this, this building was a legal courthouse. Laws were passed here. Some of the very first laws of this country. This whole building was full of, uh, lawyers, uh, lawmakers.

Cole Sear They were the ones that hanged everybody.

[A beat.; A beat.]

Eugene Simonet Did she asks you to come and talk to me about this?

Trevor McKinney No, she thinks you'll never forgive her, but I still think you could. If you wanted to do something really huge . . . for someone . . . or for a project . . . for me.

[A beat.; A beat.]

Cole Sear How?
