Well, Neil's head comes to a point.
He's smart. He's a doctor.
He's not a doctor; he's a psychiatrist.

You put the "P" in the nice kids and a "C" in the naughty kids.
"P" and "C"?
Yeah. P is for presents and C is for coals. Right, Bernard?
Right, sport.
You know, Neil's a real good cook.
Yeah, and you should see him walk on water.
You don't like him very much, do you, Dad?
Charlie, yeah, I was joking. Okay? I'm sorry. Just kidding around. I like him a... Yeah, sure I like him. You know, there... there's something about him that makes me wanna...
Lash out irrationally.
Where did you hear that?
From Neil. I learn a lot from him; he listens to me.
Yeah, and he charges you for it.
My dad is the best thing of all and I can't tell anyone about it. You have no idea how hard that is walking around with that secret for all these years. And now on top of everything, you're going out with Principal Newman? I mean, and you don't even tell me about it! My whole life has become about secrets and I hate it!
Seeing isn't believing; believing is seeing.
He's heading east toward the main entrance!
Hello, Principal Newman.
No, I volunteered to go solo on this one.
Oh, y-you look-- You've really lost weight. Are you feeling all right?
I was until I got this phone call. [sees graffitied lockers with Carol Newman saying, "Trim a tree, go to jail!"] Charlie, you promised that you weren't gonna do this again. Now you've broken a promise. What's the matter with you, Charlie? I'm gonna have to punish you. I'll ground him for two months.
I thought you were on my side!
How can I be on your side when--
I'm gonna do one better, Charlie. You're suspended.
But, Dad!
Hold on a second. I'm just as upset about this as you, but isn't there another way that we can punish him that doesn't involve taking him out of school?
What did you have in mind?
We could-- [stammering] Community service?
Huh, that's not a bad idea. Okay, Charlie. I want you to start by cleaning off this wall. I want everything, everything, off of there by tonight. And then, for the rest of the week, you can clean off every mark off of every locker in this hallway.
Every one?!
But I-I have homework, tests to study for.
It's not my problem. I have a detention group that meets on Saturday, so we will all get together at the Sullivan Rec Center, and scrape off the graffiti at 8:00 A.M. See you both there.
You say both of us? [chuckles] I-- I'm very busy. I do a lot of other community service.
That's good. You just got yourself elected parent rep. [to Charlie] And Charlie, we'll talk about the suspension.
Vengeance isn't true power. Anyone can take a life. Giving life is true power, the power you once had.
