Bill, I'm waiting.
Mr. Ryan So Bill, what you're telling me, essentially, is that Napoleon was a "short, dead dude."
Well, yeah.
Mr. Ryan [annoyed]
Ted, stand up.
Stand up?
Mr. Ryan Yes, son, stand up. [Ted stands up] Now... who was Joan of Arc?
[After class]
Mr. Ryan, before you say anything, my distinguished colleague, Ted, and I wish to express to you our thanks, for all the things we have learned in your class.
Mr. Ryan And what have you learned?
Yes. And that, thanks to great leaders such as... [looks at some of the names written on the chalkboard] Genghis Khan, Joan of Arc, and Socratic Method, the world is full of history.
Mr. Ryan It seems to me the only thing you have learned is that Caesar... is a "salad-dressing dude." Bill, Ted, this is really quite simple. You have flunked every section of this class. Now, unless you get an A-plus on your final oral report tomorrow, guys, I have no choice but to flunk the both of you. Now, you know your topics. So I would suggest that you at least cover those areas if you want to pass the course. Understand?
Bill and Ted
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ryan Okay. Guys, your report had better be something very special.
