Hey, Matthews, we survived Day One, huh?

The day is young, sir. And so was I.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Yeah, I'll be the one faceup in the suit.

Are you OK, Matthews?

You know Mr. Turner, You know that book you gave us, the Odyssey?

Yeah.

Did the guy in that get home alive?

Yes, he did. He gets passes the Cyclops, the evil Sirens and the Clashing Rocks.

Did he go to this high school?

No.

He's a nothing.

I'll see you tomorrow.


Got here as quick as I could. I want you to know that whatever happens, I'm right here with you.

Thank, Shawn. But I'm pretty sure this is something I gotta face alone.

Well, I don't know, just doesn't feel right leaving you here.

There you are, Shawn.

Now it feels right.


Well, it's five after 3:00. Maybe he's not gonna show.

And maybe I'm just trying to be casually late, Mr. Anal Compulsive.

Look, don't toy with me. I was looking forward to high school. I had a plan: I give you a chance to change your whole future and not be a guy who beats up on kids who are smaller than you for the rest of your life.

You are giving me that chance?

Yeah.

Well, here I stand at the crossroads of my life. Yet I am what I am. Don't you gotta run or whine or something?

No. I am what I am, too. I'd rather be dead than be the school coward for the next six years.

You are done?

Guess I am.



Guess again.

What are you doing here?

I have no idea. But I do know that I'm not gonna stand by let you beat up somebody that I don't even know at all. OK, OK, he's my brother.

Oh, this is your brother.

Didn't he just say that? Did not he just say I'm his brother? Just how stupid...

Cory, don't provoke.

Well, how sweet. A chance to wipe out the whole Baboon family.

Hmm.
