A scene from Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure 1989
Bill

[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?

Bill

[beat]

We've, uh... We've learned that the world has a great history.

Ted

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.
