Richard Dadier:
[catches some kids smoking in the restroom] What is this? The officers' club or something? I don't wanna catch you smoking in here again, you understand? Now get out! Come on, you heard what I said. Get out!

[3 kids leave, 2 remain]

Richard Dadier:
What's the matter? You two guys privileged or something?

Gregory W. Miller:
We only just got here, chief.

Richard Dadier:
You did huh? Well, now just get out.

Gregory W. Miller:
Can't a man wash his hands, chief?

Richard Dadier:
Wash them and get out.

Gregory W. Miller:
Sure, chief. You gonna watch me?

Emmanuel Stoker:
Maybe he'd like to wash them for us.

Richard Dadier:
What's your name? You, I'm talking to you!

Emmanuel Stoker:
Me?

Richard Dadier:
Yes, you!

Emmanuel Stoker:
Emmanuel.

Richard Dadier:
Emmanuel what?

Gregory W. Miller:
Emmanuel Trades. Don't you know, man? This boy here got the school named after him.

Richard Dadier:
What's your name, wise guy?

Gregory W. Miller:
Me? Miller. Gregory Miller. You want me to spell it out for you so you won't forget it?

Richard Dadier:
You don't have to do that. I'll remember, Miller.

Gregory W. Miller:
Sure, chief. You do that.

Richard Dadier:
Or maybe you would like to take a walk down to the principal's office with me right now. Is that what you want?

Gregory W. Miller:
You're holding all the cards, chief. You wanna take me to see Mr. Warneke, you'll do just that.

Richard Dadier:
Who's your home-period teacher?

Gregory W. Miller:
You are, chief.

Richard Dadier:
Well, why aren't you with the rest of the class?

Gregory W. Miller:
Already told you. Came in to wash up, chief.

Richard Dadier:
All right, then wash up. Just cut out that "chief" routine, understand?

Gregory W. Miller:
Sure, "chief". That's what I been doing all the time. Okay for us to drift now, "chief"?
