A scene from Wonder Boys 2000
James Leer

Professor Tripp? Can I ask you a question?

Grady Tripp

Yeah, James.

James Leer

What are we going to do with... it?

Grady Tripp

I don't know. I'm still trying to figure out how to tell the Chancellor I murdered her husband's dog.

James Leer

You?

Grady Tripp

Trust me, James, when the family pet's been assassinated, the owner doesn't want to hear one of her students was the trigger man.

James Leer

Does she want to hear it was one of her professors?

Grady Tripp

...I've got tenure.
