And now, without any further ado...what's that I hear? The pitter-patter of little feet? Allow me to introduce to you the newest addition to the Curtis Junior High School Cottontails! Three foreign exchange students from Eastern Europe and their names are...unimportant because they're here to lead us to gridiron glory! Why, all they need is a place to play! Students, I give you your new football stadium!
And now, an announcement from your principal. This is Principal Jindrake. All students will report to the assembly hall during third period for a special presentation. Attendance is mandatory. All must attend. Not attending is prohibited. That is all. Thank you.
This Thursday, Superintendent Knebworth will be here to inspect the school. And so I am upgrading my policy of zero tolerance to one of...sub-zero tolerance, which is more than zero.
I've got my eye on you, Max Keeble. You're on my list.
You may be under the impression that I encourage horseplay and malarky. I don't encourage it. I ex-courage it. It means the opposite of encourage. Look it up. And so, young man, remember, study rhymes with buddy. Scram.
I don't care what you want me to do. The smelly goat will never get my car! Ever!
I'm closing down the shelter, silly boy!
And let me just remind the citizens of Curtis Junior High that we are now T-minus...several hours until the Superintendent Knebworth visit. That is all. Thank you.
Who? Who started this? If the culprit does not step forward this instant, swift and horrible retribution awaits each and every one of you!
Oh, stop smiling! This isn't a Happy Place! [Knocks the boy's books to the ground]
Because of yesterday's crimes against the school, instigated by your former classmate, Max Keeble, the following extracurricular activities are now suspended: Art! Music! P.E.! Fun!! Suspended! Discontinued! Defunct!!
You're a smart little boy...[leans forward] but so am I.
I'm going to meet out a punishment to you that is so severe that future generations will refer to it as...The Keeble.
CEASE!
Heeeeeeeeeeeeere's Jinny!
What is the meaning of this?
Hey, I didn't do that.
So you want to save the filthy little beasts, eh? Perhaps you want me to give the animals my car. Do you want me to give my car to the smelly goat?
Goats don't drive, sir.
I don't care what you want me to do. The smelly goat will never get my car. Ever.
The animals have nowhere to go. Some creep's closing down the shelter.
I'm closing down the shelter, silly boy.
What?
All I need now is the right bulldozer. I'm thinking big and yellow. Where did you think I was going to build Knebworth stadium? In your house? [sarcastically] Ha, ha. Your house. That's rich. There wouldn't be room.
Whoa.
So the second teacher says, "I agree. That's why they call it a lounge." Ha. Well, here we are in the Curtis Junior High library.
Superintendent Knebworth Hmm. Smallish.
Yes, but we're biggish on books... especially sports books. In fact, the one we're waiting for is Crazy Legs: The Bobby Knebworth Story.
Now can you tell me what came between McGoogles and your fears? Is it something from your past or somebody?
Keeble.
...Keeble.
You may be under the impression that I encourage horseplay and malarkey. I don't encourage it. I ex-courage it.
Ex-courage?
It means the opposite of encourage. Look it up.
Stop smiling! This isn't a happy place.
Attention, students!
Because of yesterday's crimes against the school, instigated by your former classmate Max Keeble, the following extracurricular activities are now suspended: art, music, P.E... fun! Suspended, discontinued, defunct!
Great. Your boyfriend Max Keeble just got us hosed.
He's just my paperboy. I never really liked him.
Keeble!
