Hey, how're you both doing?
Better than you.
Mr. Feeny called, he told us he's meeting with you in his office tomorrow, he also said to ask you what it's about.
Ok, look. I'm in this sort of a situation and I don't exactly know what to do.
Well, if you want to, you could talk to us.
'Cause we are gonna make you.
All right, I've got this friend who's pulled the major scam at school.
Shawn?
Not Shawn.
Shawn!
Fine mom, think it Shawn, because that protects the kid it really is. Anyway, this kid did something.
With the newspaper headline?
Yeah! Could be. Now, Mr. Feeny, he knows I didn't do it, but he also thinks he knows I know who did do it.
Shawn.
Not Shawn.
Shawn!
Amy, he says it's not Shawn, I believe him.
Obviously, it's Shawn.
Well, I don't care who it is, a friend does not rat out a friend.
What are you? In a prison movie? There are consequences.
Oh, what's the worst that Feeny can do?
Well, he's threatening to suspend me.
Oh, great. A big red S on his permanent record.
Oh, nobody looks at that, who looks at that?
Some colleges he applies to.
Any college will let you in as long as you have enough money.
Do we have enough money?
No. You have to rat out your friend 'cause we're poor.
What possessed 1 Shawn to do something like this?
Aha, alright, he just wanted to be someone special and not some seventh grade nothing.
Well, maybe when you get a little older and a little more mature, maybe you will realize that stunts 2 and gimmick 3s are not what make you special.
I'm dating a senior, I'm special. I am fabulous 5. I have a tremendous newfound sense of self-worth.
Nothing bad can happen, right?
No, no.

gimmick: A gimmick is an unusual and unnecessary feature or action whose purpose is to attract attention or publicity 6.花招;窍门
