{\an8}- Oh, hello.
- Oh, you're so late.

12
00:00:57,724 --> 00:00:58,892
You're so beautiful.

13
00:00:58,892 --> 00:01:01,186
- You're beautiful.
- Call me after class.

14
00:01:01,770 --> 00:01:02,604
Morning.

15
00:01:03,563 --> 00:01:04,815
Let's have a seat, huh?

16
00:01:05,857 --> 00:01:09,361
Jessica, tell your mom
she can't send me emails like that, okay?

17
00:01:09,361 --> 00:01:10,779
It's inappropriate.

18
00:01:12,405 --> 00:01:16,576
Oh, this is fun.
What up to you guys as well.

19
00:01:19,412 --> 00:01:21,790
Oh, right-- No, wait-- All right.

20
00:01:23,208 --> 00:01:24,626
Everyone did the reading?

21
00:01:24,626 --> 00:01:27,420
The kids this year, I feel like
they're less woke. Did you notice that?

22
00:01:27,420 --> 00:01:28,672
They're not into being woke anymore.

23
00:01:28,672 --> 00:01:30,757
- It circled back around.
- It circled all the way around.

24
00:01:30,757 --> 00:01:33,093
Now they're for
what they say they're against.

25
00:01:33,093 --> 00:01:35,303
Right. And they're saying
the R-word again.

26
00:01:35,303 --> 00:01:37,389
You had that kid-- What was he
saying about the Spanish Inquisition?

27
00:01:37,389 --> 00:01:39,766
I had to teach both sides
of the Spanish Inquisition.

28
00:01:39,766 --> 00:01:41,434
- It's so insane.
- He got upset, started crying.

29
00:01:41,434 --> 00:01:43,478
- It was a whole thing.
- I have kids that are showing me

30
00:01:43,478 --> 00:01:46,898
AI porn of Oscar Wilde
having sex with women.

31
00:01:46,898 --> 00:01:48,650
He was gay.

32
00:01:48,650 --> 00:01:50,527
Six years at this school.
Today, no Dinty Moore.

33
00:01:50,527 --> 00:01:52,571
- Dinty Moore stew?
- What is Dinty Moore?

34
00:01:52,571 --> 00:01:54,364
I can't believe
they even still make that stuff.

35
00:01:54,364 --> 00:01:56,283
Whenever I see it,
I think it's a can of dog food.

36
00:01:56,283 --> 00:01:58,118
Guess I'm dieting today,
which is good, by the way,

37
00:01:58,118 --> 00:01:59,786
'cause all these little fuckers
roaming around

38
00:01:59,786 --> 00:02:01,621
filming everything we do...
I know.

39
00:02:01,621 --> 00:02:02,873
...and sending it off to communist China.

40
00:02:02,873 --> 00:02:05,041
What are you talking about?

41
00:02:05,041 --> 00:02:07,544
Let me ask you.
Why is the number one app in the world...

42
00:02:07,544 --> 00:02:09,504
- No politics.
- ...run by America's only enemy?

43
00:02:09,504 --> 00:02:11,089
- Didn't we say no politics?
- I did say that.

44
00:02:11,089 --> 00:02:13,216
Didn't we make a policy: no politics?

45
00:02:13,216 --> 00:02:15,260
People say they vote with their dollar.
A lot of people do.

46
00:02:15,260 --> 00:02:18,388
I vote with my dollar.
I also vote with my vote, okay?

47
00:02:18,388 --> 00:02:20,599
And I never choose who I'm gonna vote for
till after the debates.

48
00:02:20,599 --> 00:02:22,642
- That is not true.
- It's 100% true.

49
00:02:22,642 --> 00:02:24,644
- It is not true that you wait--
- Believe it, buddy, all right?

50
00:02:24,644 --> 00:02:27,355
It's called nobility of spirit.
You got it too. Deep inside.

51
00:02:27,355 --> 00:02:29,566
You just need a hot boyfriend
to spank it out of you every morning.

52
00:02:29,566 --> 00:02:31,359
Do not bring lunch from home.

53
00:02:31,359 --> 00:02:32,944
It's not worth it this year.
Wait, what?

54
00:02:32,944 --> 00:02:34,863
I can't be carrying this much shit!

55
00:02:34,863 --> 00:02:37,073
- What do you mean "this year"?
- They upgraded the lunch.

56
00:02:37,073 --> 00:02:39,284
- Look. Markie's got pecan pie.
- Who upgraded the lunch?

57
00:02:39,284 --> 00:02:41,244
Dude, you guys gotta respond
to my stock guy.

58
00:02:41,244 --> 00:02:43,622
He's got new opportunities.
I don't want you guys to miss out.

59
00:02:43,622 --> 00:02:46,124
Rick, I would politely ask you
to stop sending us those emails

60
00:02:46,124 --> 00:02:48,835
because those actually are spam,
and that guy, I think, is scamming you.

61
00:02:48,835 --> 00:02:50,420
This guy is legit.
I met him at a TED talk.

62
00:02:50,420 --> 00:02:51,796
- You went to a TED talk?
- Yeah.

63
00:02:51,796 --> 00:02:53,423
Or was it TEDx?

64
00:02:53,423 --> 00:02:55,091
It's different? What's different?

65
00:02:56,009 --> 00:02:59,304
This is why I get my paycheck in cash.
It goes right in the safe.

66
00:02:59,304 --> 00:03:02,015
That's insane. Are you stupid?
You're losing .8% each year.

67
00:03:02,015 --> 00:03:03,183
You pay taxes on that?

68
00:03:03,183 --> 00:03:04,392
Taxation is theft.

69
00:03:04,392 --> 00:03:05,560
Right. Who is that?

70
00:03:06,144 --> 00:03:07,562
That's the new physics teacher.

71
00:03:07,562 --> 00:03:08,980
- He's filling in for Jennifer...
- He's cool.

72
00:03:08,980 --> 00:03:12,692
...for the first semester, or the year,
if she does well on <i>The Amazing Race.</i>

73
00:03:12,692 --> 00:03:14,736
I can't believe she got on that show
with a hernia.

74
00:03:14,736 --> 00:03:16,488
No, I think it was a atopic baby.

75
00:03:16,488 --> 00:03:17,989
That's not the word.
Evan.

76
00:03:17,989 --> 00:03:19,491
Evan, can I talk to you in my office?

77
00:03:19,491 --> 00:03:20,951
- Now?
- Yes. Come, come.

78
00:03:20,951 --> 00:03:22,202
No vaping. I can smell it.

79
00:03:22,202 --> 00:03:23,286
No, you can't.

80
00:03:23,286 --> 00:03:24,371
Here it is...

81
00:03:25,497 --> 00:03:28,667
Oh. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

82
00:03:29,793 --> 00:03:30,961
Okay. Yeah.

83
00:03:30,961 --> 00:03:32,796
- You're being investigated.
- I'm being investigated?

84
00:03:32,796 --> 00:03:34,297
- For what?
- A mom named Linda Harrison...

85
00:03:34,297 --> 00:03:35,882
- Linda Harrison?
- I know that name.

86
00:03:35,882 --> 00:03:37,384
...alleges that you kissed your boyfriend

87
00:03:37,384 --> 00:03:38,969
- in front of her son...
- Oh, my God.

88
00:03:38,969 --> 00:03:41,930
...and a whole class of other high schoolers
at the end of last school year.

89
00:03:41,930 --> 00:03:44,015
You talked to me about that
when it happened. That was nothing.

90
00:03:44,015 --> 00:03:47,560
I know. But now she's made a formal
complaint, and I have to read this.

91
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,312
Wait, her kid-- That kid graduated.

92
00:03:49,312 --> 00:03:51,272
He's in college now.
Why is she doing this now?

93
00:03:51,272 --> 00:03:53,358
I don't know.
Why does anybody do anything?

94
00:03:53,358 --> 00:03:55,527
Wait a minute. Linda Harrison.
I remember that name.

95
00:03:55,527 --> 00:03:59,280
That's the mom that complained
about the assigned reading.

96
00:04:00,532 --> 00:04:03,159
- Lewd content, yeah.
- Lewd content, right?

97
00:04:03,159 --> 00:04:06,705
And do you remember what the book was
that she said was lewd?

98
00:04:07,539 --> 00:04:10,125
<i>The Great Gatsby.</i>

99
00:04:10,625 --> 00:04:12,419
Do you know how long
that's been on the curriculum?

100
00:04:12,419 --> 00:04:14,170
- Oh, my God.
- This doesn't make sense.

101
00:04:14,170 --> 00:04:16,172
This is political.
She's doing a political move.

102
00:04:16,172 --> 00:04:17,757
Yeah, politics are real.

103
00:04:17,757 --> 00:04:20,135
Why doesn't Markie ever get investigated
for all that shit he says?

104
00:04:20,135 --> 00:04:21,302
- Who?
- Markie.

105
00:04:21,302 --> 00:04:22,804
Markie, the gym teacher. Markie.

106
00:04:22,804 --> 00:04:24,347
Mark-- He can't be investigated.

107
00:04:24,347 --> 00:04:26,558
He has a protected victim status...

108
00:04:26,558 --> 00:04:28,768
- How do I get that?
- ...because he was injured

109
00:04:28,768 --> 00:04:32,105
in a car accident in his first week
of training in the ROTC,

110
00:04:32,105 --> 00:04:35,650
and he's 1/32nd Native American,
and he has paper proof of that.

111
00:04:35,650 --> 00:04:37,902
- This is insane.
- I mean, you kissed her--

112
00:04:37,902 --> 00:04:40,238
You kissed your boyfriend
in front of her son.

113
00:04:40,238 --> 00:04:42,574
- This is serious now.
- I literally was just, like...

114
00:04:42,574 --> 00:04:44,117
Just like barely-- Just like...

115
00:04:44,117 --> 00:04:45,785
I don't even know if our lips touched.

116
00:04:45,785 --> 00:04:47,162
Do you understand? This is homophobia.

117
00:04:47,162 --> 00:04:49,122
- This is what homophobia's like.
- I don't care what it is.

118
00:04:49,122 --> 00:04:50,874
- It's insidious.
- I'm agoraphobic.

119
00:04:50,874 --> 00:04:53,960
So what do I do?
I just wait for my fate to be decided?

120
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,212
I don't know. You can do anything. You--

121
00:04:56,796 --> 00:04:58,465
If you hand in your resignation letter,

122
00:04:58,465 --> 00:05:00,550
you could work
in a restaurant or something,

123
00:05:00,550 --> 00:05:02,844
or, you know, do a short film
with your friends.

124
00:05:02,844 --> 00:05:04,220
Join Amway. Amway is very good.

125
00:05:04,220 --> 00:05:06,139
You want me to quit this job?

126
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:08,308
No, I don't want you to quit.
I don't want you to quit.

127
00:05:08,308 --> 00:05:09,893
She wants you to quit.

128
00:05:11,019 --> 00:05:13,521
Look, what I want you to do is
write a statement

129
00:05:13,521 --> 00:05:15,190
in defense of your position, okay?

130
00:05:15,190 --> 00:05:17,067
- I'll submit it on your behalf.
- In defense?

131
00:05:17,067 --> 00:05:19,152
- That's what I can do.
- I'm not writing a statement.

132
00:05:19,152 --> 00:05:22,030
- This whole thing is bullshit.
- It's not bullshit.

133
00:05:22,530 --> 00:05:24,532
You're lucky they're not suspending you.

134
00:05:26,076 --> 00:05:27,577
Grant, let me ask you something.

135
00:05:27,577 --> 00:05:29,746
- Her kid-- Remember that kid?
- Yeah.

136
00:05:29,746 --> 00:05:30,830
Is he gay now?

137
00:05:31,331 --> 00:05:33,333
He's in college and he's gay now, right?

138
00:05:33,333 --> 00:05:35,001
I always felt like that kid was gay.

139
00:05:35,001 --> 00:05:36,878
Just-- Evan, just stop.

140
00:05:36,878 --> 00:05:38,713
- Stop. Just stop.
- I'm right? I'm right.

141
00:05:38,713 --> 00:05:40,381
She thinks I turned her kid gay.

142
00:05:40,381 --> 00:05:42,050
- Will you stop that?
- This is insane!

143
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:44,219
Evan, just please take
the rest of the day off!

144
00:05:45,136 --> 00:05:47,472
I mean, I guess I have said this before.

145
00:05:47,472 --> 00:05:49,974
Not to, like, whatever,
but I did quit for a reason.

146
00:05:49,974 --> 00:05:51,768
I know you quit for a reason.

147
00:05:51,768 --> 00:05:54,354
I'm, like--
I really am thriving right now.

148
00:05:54,354 --> 00:05:56,689
They're, like, giving away
tech jobs in Austin.

149
00:05:56,689 --> 00:05:59,150
I've worked at the job
for, what, two months now.

150
00:05:59,150 --> 00:06:02,070
I've used my dental insurance
four times. Four times.

151
00:06:02,070 --> 00:06:03,947
I'm getting braces for, like, no reason.

152
00:06:03,947 --> 00:06:06,574
I'm not gonna quit teaching.
I can't just work in tech.

153
00:06:06,574 --> 00:06:09,619
I need a job that means
something to me, which I hate.

154
00:06:09,619 --> 00:06:11,079
Yeah. No, that-- that sucks.

155
00:06:11,079 --> 00:06:14,415
Maybe if you were in a city school
here in Austin, it would be one thing,

156
00:06:14,415 --> 00:06:17,627
but these suburbs,
they're still, like, very old-fashioned.

157
00:06:17,627 --> 00:06:20,130
No, but I have to stay there
because somewhere bigoted like that

158
00:06:20,130 --> 00:06:21,714
is where you can make the most difference.

159
00:06:21,714 --> 00:06:24,592
Like, what am I doing if I'm not
trying to improve the future

160
00:06:24,592 --> 00:06:26,344
for these kids
that come through that system?

161
00:06:26,344 --> 00:06:29,722
If I just succumb to the evil intentions
of their conservative parents,

162
00:06:29,722 --> 00:06:31,724
then the kids are gonna grow up
to be exactly like them.

163
00:06:31,724 --> 00:06:33,726
- Then it's 1980 again or worse.
- Okay.

164
00:06:33,726 --> 00:06:35,436
I mean, I will just say, like,

165
00:06:35,436 --> 00:06:37,605
I wouldn't think of
all conservatives as evil.

166
00:06:37,605 --> 00:06:39,524
- I don't.
- I'm conservative at this point.

167
00:06:39,524 --> 00:06:41,442
- No, you're not.
- No, not about everything.

168
00:06:41,442 --> 00:06:44,362
- I still want social progress.
- You say it 'cause it's kitschy,

169
00:06:44,362 --> 00:06:46,239
but you're not actually a Republican.

170
00:06:46,239 --> 00:06:48,575
No, I really-- It's like, I am
against a lot of what the left--

171
00:06:48,575 --> 00:06:50,994
I don't know what I am anymore.
I listen to <i>Red Scare.</i>

172
00:06:50,994 --> 00:06:53,913
If my very desire to fuck is--
I love this song.

173
00:06:53,913 --> 00:06:56,749
If my very desire to fuck is,
like, up for debate

174
00:06:56,749 --> 00:06:59,085
or potentially evil to them--

175
00:06:59,836 --> 00:07:01,588
I don't know. We have to do something.

176
00:07:01,588 --> 00:07:03,381
Oh, "we"? You and I?

177
00:07:03,381 --> 00:07:05,341
- You and I, us together...
- No.

178
00:07:05,341 --> 00:07:07,802
...go talk to the school board.
We're the ones who kissed.

179
00:07:07,802 --> 00:07:11,181
"We" are not even together
anymore 'cause you can't commit.

180
00:07:11,181 --> 00:07:13,224
You always act like I broke up with you.

181
00:07:13,224 --> 00:07:15,435
But I didn't break up with you.
We broke up with each other.

182
00:07:15,435 --> 00:07:17,770
I'm not going back
anywhere near that school.

183
00:07:17,770 --> 00:07:19,856
And I'm certainly not getting involved.

184
00:07:20,857 --> 00:07:24,444
On that note, if you are open to it,

185
00:07:24,444 --> 00:07:28,031
I would be down
to hang out today at your place.

186
00:07:28,948 --> 00:07:31,034
- Okay. Wow.
- I'm supposed to take

187
00:07:31,034 --> 00:07:33,286
the rest of the day off
to think about my actions.

188
00:07:33,286 --> 00:07:35,205
See, this is your whole thing.

189
00:07:35,205 --> 00:07:37,081
This is my thing.
- You create your own problems.

190
00:07:37,081 --> 00:07:38,583
Like this, for example.

191
00:07:38,583 --> 00:07:40,210
What happens if you get me pregnant?

192
00:07:40,210 --> 00:07:41,878
Like, are we gonna keep the baby?

193
00:07:41,878 --> 00:07:43,630
I can't raise a baby. I work in tech.

194
00:07:43,630 --> 00:07:45,048
If I get you pregnant,

195
00:07:46,341 --> 00:07:47,592
it would be a miracle.

196
00:07:49,302 --> 00:07:51,679
<i>♪ Forgiving who you are ♪</i>

197
00:07:51,679 --> 00:07:53,932
<i>♪ For what you stand to gain ♪</i>

198
00:07:57,810 --> 00:08:00,063
This behavior would not only be tolerated,

199
00:08:01,648 --> 00:08:07,320
but encouraged
if a straight couple did the same.

200
00:08:07,820 --> 00:08:10,240
Homophobia--

201
00:08:11,950 --> 00:08:13,034
Hello.

202
00:08:13,785 --> 00:08:15,578
<i>What are you doing, you little gay guy?</i>

203
00:08:15,578 --> 00:08:17,580
I love when you call me that. Um...

204
00:08:17,580 --> 00:08:19,791
I'm writing this official statement

205
00:08:19,791 --> 00:08:22,126
that I have to submit
for this investigation.

206
00:08:23,294 --> 00:08:24,379
<i>What do you have so far?</i>

207
00:08:24,379 --> 00:08:25,880
"To Whom it may concern:

208
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,757
I pecked my boyfriend on the cheek,

209
00:08:27,757 --> 00:08:30,134
perhaps making momentary
passing contact with his lips,

210
00:08:30,134 --> 00:08:31,678
in front of a class of his students.

211
00:08:31,678 --> 00:08:34,681
We were in a serious relationship
at the time, and it is clear to me

212
00:08:34,681 --> 00:08:37,558
that this behavior would not
only be tolerated but encouraged

213
00:08:37,558 --> 00:08:39,060
if a straight couple did the same."

214
00:08:39,060 --> 00:08:40,937
That's all I have.
It feels kinda defensive.

215
00:08:40,937 --> 00:08:42,563
<i>No, no. I think that's good.</i>

216
00:08:42,563 --> 00:08:44,482
- <i>You're in the right on that.</i>
- Yeah.

217
00:08:44,482 --> 00:08:45,942
Yeah.

218
00:08:45,942 --> 00:08:47,360
<i>Did you talk to Malcolm about it?</i>

219
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,404
We hooked up today, actually.

220
00:08:49,404 --> 00:08:51,406
<i>Oh, my God.</i>

221
00:08:51,406 --> 00:08:53,866
<i>Crazy. I didn't know
you guys did that still.</i>

222
00:08:53,866 --> 00:08:56,369
Yeah, barely. Sometimes.

223
00:08:56,369 --> 00:08:59,580
<i>Did you guys do it at the school
in front of all the students?</i>

224
00:09:00,623 --> 00:09:02,875
- Ha, ha, ha.
- <i>I got you. I got you.</i>

225
00:09:02,875 --> 00:09:04,669
<i>Do you want regular or vegan pizza?</i>

226
00:09:04,669 --> 00:09:06,087
<i>The vegan one.</i>

227
00:09:06,087 --> 00:09:07,338
<i>Sorry, Nick's making dinner,</i>

228
00:09:07,338 --> 00:09:10,508
<i>and he's just basically
been trying to busy himself</i>

229
00:09:10,508 --> 00:09:12,552
- <i>since he lost the job.</i>
- <i>Mmm.</i>

230
00:09:12,552 --> 00:09:14,387
<i>He's been making, like,
those Hello Fresh meals</i>

231
00:09:14,387 --> 00:09:15,930
<i>that are too salty.</i>

232
00:09:15,930 --> 00:09:17,140
Tell him I love him.

233
00:09:17,140 --> 00:09:18,891
<i>Evan says he loves you.</i>

234
00:09:20,101 --> 00:09:21,811
<i>Aw. He loves you too.</i>

235
00:09:22,562 --> 00:09:25,064
<i>Okay, I gotta-- I gotta go.

Okay, love you. Bye.

Ow! Jesus!

00:10:39,305 --> 00:10:41,224
Think fast, Marquez. Come on, man.

255
00:10:41,224 --> 00:10:44,268
You can't just throw a ball at me
and then say "think fast."

256
00:10:44,268 --> 00:10:47,188
I can't anticipate a ball
that just appears out of nowhere.

257
00:10:47,188 --> 00:10:49,649
- Working on your defense statement, I see.
- I'm not allowed--

258
00:10:49,649 --> 00:10:51,234
That's a piece of shit. I can tell.

259
00:10:51,234 --> 00:10:53,277
How do you know I have to write
a defense statement?

260
00:10:53,277 --> 00:10:56,030
Because I know things, man.
I got my ear to the grindstone.

261
00:10:56,030 --> 00:10:58,908
You know it's "nose to the grindstone"
or "ear to the ground"?

262
00:10:58,908 --> 00:11:01,828
No, it could be whatever you want.
I got my finger on the pulse, okay?

263
00:11:01,828 --> 00:11:03,371
- That's correct.
- Okay.

264
00:11:03,371 --> 00:11:07,542
Put this in there: "I am being targeted
for harassment because I"-- You--

265
00:11:07,542 --> 00:11:09,836
"I am a proud gay man."

266
00:11:09,836 --> 00:11:11,754
I'm not that proud.

267
00:11:11,754 --> 00:11:13,840
You gotta fight fire with fire
these days, Marquez.

268
00:11:14,465 --> 00:11:15,967
Life's not a fucking poem.

269
00:11:15,967 --> 00:11:18,177
- It's a full-contact sport.
- Ow. Jesus.

270
00:11:18,177 --> 00:11:19,720
I'm just saying, man, like--

271
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,141
These kids, they want the power
they feel when they get you in trouble.

272
00:11:23,141 --> 00:11:24,892
They're the inmates
who wanna run the asylum--

273
00:11:24,892 --> 00:11:25,977
It's not a bad point.

274
00:11:25,977 --> 00:11:29,313
But the thing is the kid is not trying
to get power in the situation.

275
00:11:29,313 --> 00:11:30,481
It's his mother.

276
00:11:31,065 --> 00:11:33,651
Wait, wait, wait, wait. Linda Harrison.

277
00:11:34,152 --> 00:11:35,987
Oh, God. I'm not supposed to tell you.

278
00:11:35,987 --> 00:11:37,655
- It's her son?
- I was supposed to...

279
00:11:37,655 --> 00:11:39,240
- He took your class--
- ...keep it anonymous.

280
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,534
Holy shit, dude. She's saying
because her son's gay, right?

281
00:11:41,534 --> 00:11:43,244
- I didn't turn her son gay.
- I'm not--

282
00:11:43,244 --> 00:11:44,579
Well, you're sure about that?

283
00:11:44,579 --> 00:11:47,999
It doesn't work that way, Markie.
You can't turn people gay.

284
00:11:47,999 --> 00:11:49,792
I'm not saying you did it on purpose,

285
00:11:49,792 --> 00:11:53,171
but, look, he sees you being you
and thinks, "That's how I wanna be."

286
00:11:54,046 --> 00:11:57,049
That's how I felt the first time
I saw Jose Canseco in person.

287
00:11:57,758 --> 00:11:59,760
- Who is Jose--
- There he is.

288
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,679
Eric "Not-So-Speedy" Gonzalez.

289
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,264
17:51.

290
00:12:03,264 --> 00:12:04,348
Wow.

291
00:12:07,727 --> 00:12:09,353
...which is why
I think this whole book

292
00:12:09,353 --> 00:12:11,731
and the idea of people
being spied on 24/7 is bullshit.

293
00:12:11,731 --> 00:12:13,983
- Don't curse.
- This is book club. It's fine.

294
00:12:13,983 --> 00:12:16,986
- It's not actual class.
- Still technically school.

295
00:12:16,986 --> 00:12:19,238
This is coming from our teacher
who's being investigated?

296
00:12:21,282 --> 00:12:22,408
How do you know that?

297
00:12:22,408 --> 00:12:24,535
Come on. Everybody knows this.

298
00:12:24,535 --> 00:12:26,704
You kissed your little boyfriend
in front of the students.

299
00:12:26,704 --> 00:12:30,416
Well, whatever I did or didn't do,
I'm not gonna talk about it with you guys.

300
00:12:30,416 --> 00:12:32,919
Just claim they're attacking you
because you're Hispanic

301
00:12:32,919 --> 00:12:35,296
- and they have a racist agenda.
- That has nothing to do with it.

302
00:12:35,296 --> 00:12:37,548
Hispanic would never work anyway
because they can do, like,

303
00:12:37,548 --> 00:12:39,675
one of those DNA tests and disprove it.

304
00:12:39,675 --> 00:12:41,761
Oh, my God, Becca. He is Hispanic.

305
00:12:41,761 --> 00:12:43,679
- In what way?
- His mom's from Colombia.

306
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,015
That's not Hispanic.
Hispanic means Mexican.

307
00:12:46,015 --> 00:12:47,808
- I'm calling the cops.
- You're bullying me.

308
00:12:47,808 --> 00:12:49,769
You're bullying me
'cause I told you not to talk to me.

309
00:12:49,769 --> 00:12:51,103
Look, Mr. Marquez.

310
00:12:51,103 --> 00:12:54,148
You're gay, you're Hispanic.
This is a slam dunk here!

311
00:12:54,148 --> 00:12:56,901
Gay doesn't count anymore.
And he talks like a straight white guy.

312
00:12:56,901 --> 00:12:58,444
I think your voice is a little gay.

313
00:12:58,444 --> 00:13:00,404
- Actually really gay.
- Oh, thanks.

314
00:13:00,404 --> 00:13:02,198
If they're gonna get you,
they're gonna get you.

315
00:13:02,198 --> 00:13:03,866
There's nothing you can do about it.

316
00:13:03,866 --> 00:13:05,743
They got me,
and I had everything going for me.

317
00:13:05,743 --> 00:13:08,162
Jeff, they got you for selling molly
at junior prom.

318
00:13:08,162 --> 00:13:10,039
I was doing it as a bit.

319
00:13:10,039 --> 00:13:11,541
And they've all been trying to get me

320
00:13:11,541 --> 00:13:13,876
since the first time
I wore those camo overalls,

321
00:13:14,585 --> 00:13:17,672
- which I was also doing as a bit.
- Jeff, what do you mean by "bit"?

322
00:13:17,672 --> 00:13:20,675
Just something I'm doing
and I really mean it.

323
00:13:20,675 --> 00:13:22,843
- That's not right.
- Why would you stay at a job

324
00:13:22,843 --> 00:13:24,762
- if they're treating you like this?
- Exactly.

325
00:13:24,762 --> 00:13:26,556
Because this job is important to me.

326
00:13:26,556 --> 00:13:29,475
I like watching young kids bloom and grow.

327
00:13:29,475 --> 00:13:31,686
Don't say that at your trial, okay?
It sounds creepy.

328
00:13:31,686 --> 00:13:33,896
There's not gonna be a trial, okay?

329
00:13:33,896 --> 00:13:36,524
You guys are fucking--
You're freaking me out.

330
00:13:36,524 --> 00:13:39,068
You just said the F-word!
No cursing at school.

331
00:13:39,068 --> 00:13:40,820
Okay. That's our time.

332
00:13:40,820 --> 00:13:42,822
Hopefully, we can be
more productive next week

333
00:13:42,822 --> 00:13:44,532
when your essays are due.

334
00:13:44,532 --> 00:13:45,616
Thank you.

335
00:13:46,284 --> 00:13:47,910
Mr. Marquez, look.

336
00:13:47,910 --> 00:13:49,745
We're on your side, okay?

337
00:13:49,745 --> 00:13:52,873
Fuck those people who don't like
little gay kisses, you know?

338
00:14:01,382 --> 00:14:02,383
Look.

339
00:14:02,967 --> 00:14:06,012
New physics teacher hasn't learned
to not eat the nachos yet.

340
00:14:06,012 --> 00:14:07,972
He's gonna find out soon enough.
In the bathroom.

341
00:14:08,848 --> 00:14:11,267
I heard-- Oh, God. There's bone in that.

342
00:14:11,267 --> 00:14:13,102
I heard he won, like,
best teacher in the state

343
00:14:13,102 --> 00:14:14,854
or something in Louisiana.

344
00:14:23,279 --> 00:14:25,698
Hey, Froot Loop! Froot Loop!

345
00:14:25,698 --> 00:14:29,035
- You can't call me Froot Loop, Markie.
- It's just the name of a cereal.

346
00:14:29,035 --> 00:14:30,745
Then why don't you say "Cheerios"?

347
00:14:30,745 --> 00:14:32,246
There ain't nothing gay about Cheerios.

348
00:14:32,246 --> 00:14:33,914
- Listen. Evan, listen.
- What, Markie? What?

349
00:14:33,914 --> 00:14:35,499
You're never gonna believe this, okay?

350
00:14:35,499 --> 00:14:38,252
My students, they want me
to explain non-binary.

351
00:14:38,252 --> 00:14:40,171
What does that have to do with me?

352
00:14:40,171 --> 00:14:41,922
You're gonna give the speech.
It's your lucky day.

353
00:14:41,922 --> 00:14:43,883
- No, I'm not!
- You know you want this.

354
00:14:43,883 --> 00:14:45,176
- No!
- This is your hero moment.

355
00:14:45,176 --> 00:14:46,844
- Come on, buddy.
- Markie...

356
00:14:46,844 --> 00:14:49,305
Opportunity knocks. Who's home?

357
00:14:49,305 --> 00:14:51,265
- Evan's home. Evan, please.
- I'm not doing this.

358
00:14:51,265 --> 00:14:53,309
You're gonna ask me three more times.
It's not happening!

359
00:14:53,309 --> 00:14:55,895
All right, everyone, listen up.
This is Mr. Marquez.

360
00:14:55,895 --> 00:14:58,230
He is here to teach you all
about non-binary.

361
00:14:58,230 --> 00:15:00,566
He is our very special gay guest.

362
00:15:00,566 --> 00:15:03,361
Clap. Clap for him now, everyone.

363
00:15:03,361 --> 00:15:05,279
- Clap.
- Gwen, what are you doing here?

364
00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:07,615
- Supervising. I'm covering.
- Don't you have a class?

365
00:15:07,615 --> 00:15:09,408
- No, no.
- Why don't you teach it to them?

366
00:15:09,408 --> 00:15:11,243
- You're the expert.
- I'm the expert?

367
00:15:11,243 --> 00:15:12,745
I'm not-- I'm binary.

368
00:15:14,455 --> 00:15:16,123
- What?
- Doesn't mean what you think.

369
00:15:16,123 --> 00:15:18,250
- You are losing 'em, dude.
- Okay. Hello, class.

370
00:15:18,250 --> 00:15:19,669
My name is Mr. Marquez.

371
00:15:19,669 --> 00:15:22,755
I am a teacher here at school
that many of you know,

372
00:15:22,755 --> 00:15:24,590
and I'm here to talk to you today

373
00:15:24,590 --> 00:15:27,718
about a subject that I think you all,
like, know about already

374
00:15:27,718 --> 00:15:29,136
because you're all on Tumblr--

375
00:15:29,136 --> 00:15:31,055
Tumblr is dead.
- You're all on the Internet,

376
00:15:31,055 --> 00:15:33,307
you're on TikTok and Instagram,
and you know this stuff,

377
00:15:33,307 --> 00:15:35,393
so I don't know why
you're asking me to explain it.

378
00:15:35,393 --> 00:15:37,561
But a non-binary person, right,
is just somebody

379
00:15:37,561 --> 00:15:39,814
who does not identify as male or female.

380
00:15:39,814 --> 00:15:40,940
Like a hermaphrodite.

381
00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:42,650
- No, not at all.
- Yes.

382
00:15:42,650 --> 00:15:44,318
And that word
is not in use anymore, is it?

383
00:15:44,318 --> 00:15:45,778
- I--
- Is it?

384
00:15:45,778 --> 00:15:48,572
- I don't know. I--
- It's very simple, okay?

385
00:15:48,572 --> 00:15:50,491
Your teachers this year,
we all had to state our pronouns

386
00:15:50,491 --> 00:15:52,660
- before class, right?
- We know all this.

387
00:15:52,660 --> 00:15:54,495
Then why did you ask me
to explain it to you?

388
00:15:54,495 --> 00:15:56,122
You have been set up, hundred percent.

389
00:15:56,622 --> 00:15:58,958
Yeah, like, we've been recording you
this entire time.

390
00:15:58,958 --> 00:16:00,751
See, you were supposed to fail
at explaining it

391
00:16:00,751 --> 00:16:02,336
'cause you're, like, horrible with words.

392
00:16:02,336 --> 00:16:03,879
So that was finna go everywhere online.

393
00:16:03,879 --> 00:16:05,756
Oh, my God.

394
00:16:05,756 --> 00:16:08,092
They just wanted to fucking film you
talking about it.

395
00:16:08,092 --> 00:16:09,802
That is so--
That is very nefarious.

396
00:16:09,802 --> 00:16:11,262
This isn't right.

397
00:16:11,262 --> 00:16:14,140
Please don't film your teachers
doing things like this, him or me.

398
00:16:14,140 --> 00:16:17,518
I know he's worse than me,
but I don't need this on the Internet.

399
00:16:17,518 --> 00:16:19,979
Please don't put that on--
I feel attacked right now.

400
00:16:19,979 --> 00:16:22,189
- You feel like what?
- I feel attacked right now.

401
00:16:22,690 --> 00:16:24,024
I feel attacked!

402
00:16:26,902 --> 00:16:27,903
Here's my statement.

403
00:16:27,903 --> 00:16:30,197
I also wanna say in conjunction with this

404
00:16:30,197 --> 00:16:32,241
that this whole thing
is very messed up, okay?

405
00:16:32,241 --> 00:16:33,784
This has messed up
the beginning of my year.

406
00:16:33,784 --> 00:16:35,828
- It's--
- What's this in regards to?

407
00:16:35,828 --> 00:16:38,664
What's-- The investigation into
this completely innocuous thing.

408
00:16:38,664 --> 00:16:40,291
Oh, my God. Evan--

409
00:16:40,291 --> 00:16:42,668
Expressing love
to my life partner at the time.

410
00:16:42,668 --> 00:16:45,880
Evan, the investigation is over.
Sorry. I forgot to tell you.

411
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,214
I forgot to tell you.

412
00:16:49,592 --> 00:16:51,260
What the fuck are you talking about?

413
00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:53,512
The mom dropped the whole case.
The whole thing.

414
00:16:53,512 --> 00:16:55,264
Done. Gone. Boom.

415
00:16:55,264 --> 00:16:56,974
- What?
- Well, she--

416
00:16:56,974 --> 00:16:59,185
Well, apparently Markie talked to her.

417
00:16:59,185 --> 00:17:01,604
- Markie talked to her?
- Yeah, they're close.

418
00:17:01,604 --> 00:17:04,732
I don't know how, but yeah,
he talked some sense into her.

419
00:17:04,732 --> 00:17:07,860
It's... done.

420
00:17:07,860 --> 00:17:08,944
Yeah.

421
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,032
Oh, my God.

422
00:17:13,032 --> 00:17:14,992
Um, no, but there is one thing.

423
00:17:14,992 --> 00:17:17,578
The district did say-- did say one thing.

424
00:17:17,578 --> 00:17:18,788
Let me find it.

425
00:17:20,623 --> 00:17:24,126
That you are strictly forbidden
from dating--

426
00:17:24,752 --> 00:17:26,921
That you are strictly--
That you are strictly forbidden

427
00:17:26,921 --> 00:17:29,632
from dating faculty from now on.

428
00:17:29,632 --> 00:17:32,051
Hmm? You'll be fired, otherwise.

429
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:33,844
You're okay with that, right?

430
00:17:33,844 --> 00:17:34,929
Yeah.

431
00:17:37,598 --> 00:17:40,851
You should read my statement.
I spent all week on it. It's really good.

432
00:17:40,851 --> 00:17:42,853
Oh. Uh, sure. Yeah.

433
00:17:44,063 --> 00:17:45,856
Oh, "To whom it may concern..."

434
00:17:46,357 --> 00:17:50,027
"Gestapo" usually comes with a capital.

435
00:17:50,027 --> 00:17:52,279
But it's really good. Really good.

436
00:17:58,244 --> 00:17:59,912
Markie. Markie.

437
00:18:00,412 --> 00:18:02,414
You talked to the mom. This is incredible.

438
00:18:02,414 --> 00:18:04,166
Oh, dude, yeah. Don't even sweat that.

439
00:18:04,166 --> 00:18:06,085
I've known Loudmouth Harrison for years.

440
00:18:06,085 --> 00:18:09,046
We used to call her Bass Mouth.
You wanna get a hook in there, don't you?

441
00:18:09,046 --> 00:18:12,132
This is phenomenal. Oh, my God.
The relief I am feeling.

442
00:18:12,132 --> 00:18:14,051
Not a problem. You help me, I help you.

443
00:18:14,051 --> 00:18:15,636
What happened? What did you say to her?

444
00:18:15,636 --> 00:18:18,222
I walked into the country club
where she frequents,

445
00:18:18,222 --> 00:18:20,057
caught her three martinis in and said,

446
00:18:20,057 --> 00:18:23,394
"Hey, back off, or I'ma tell everyone here
that your son is gay."

447
00:18:25,271 --> 00:18:27,064
- You what?
- I mean, he is gay.

448
00:18:27,064 --> 00:18:29,233
It's not lying. You know, it's
just hitting her with the truth.

449
00:18:29,233 --> 00:18:30,901
Some people can't handle that shit.

450
00:18:30,901 --> 00:18:34,113
No, you can't use homophobia
to fight homophobia.

451
00:18:34,113 --> 00:18:36,615
- We work with the tools we have.
- No.

452
00:18:36,615 --> 00:18:39,451
What's the big deal? I did you a--
Come on. Are you mad?

453
00:18:39,451 --> 00:18:41,537
The big deal is I wanted
to win this for real, Markie,

454
00:18:41,537 --> 00:18:43,414
- not with threats from you.
- It's not a threat.

455
00:18:43,414 --> 00:18:46,834
They're all gonna find out eventually.
I just offered to expedite the process.

456
00:18:46,834 --> 00:18:49,128
I-- This is about principles, Markie.

457
00:18:49,128 --> 00:18:53,716
This is about my right to exist
as a man in the modern world

458
00:18:53,716 --> 00:18:56,051
without being harassed by women like this.

459
00:18:56,051 --> 00:18:58,971
This is about ethics and-- and ideals.

460
00:18:59,722 --> 00:19:00,973
Wake up, Evan!

461
00:19:01,473 --> 00:19:04,977
No one gives a shit about
your highfalutin ideals, bro. Okay?

462
00:19:04,977 --> 00:19:07,271
Seriously. Life is a football game,

463
00:19:07,271 --> 00:19:09,899
and you keep showing up
in a goddamn tutu, all right?

464
00:19:09,899 --> 00:19:11,984
We were down, fourth and one.

465
00:19:11,984 --> 00:19:14,236
I called the play, quarterback sneak.

466
00:19:14,236 --> 00:19:16,113
Now we got a new set of downs,

467
00:19:16,113 --> 00:19:19,033
and you can go stand behind
a bent-over dude again, all right?

468
00:19:19,950 --> 00:19:23,454
I saved your job, man,
because you're a friend.

469
00:19:23,454 --> 00:19:25,080
That's what friends do.

470
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:29,293
We help each other out, and if that's
not part of your fucking code,

471
00:19:29,293 --> 00:19:32,379
then I don't know
what else to say to you, dude.

472
00:19:40,971 --> 00:19:43,641
I don't understand the football stuff
you were saying...

473
00:19:44,558 --> 00:19:45,726
but...

474
00:19:47,144 --> 00:19:48,437
thanks.

475
00:19:48,437 --> 00:19:49,772
- Thank you.
- Wait, hold up.

476
00:19:50,439 --> 00:19:51,440
All right.

477
00:19:52,191 --> 00:19:54,276
Hey, anytime.

478
00:19:54,276 --> 00:19:56,070
See? Anytime.

479
00:19:56,654 --> 00:19:57,655
I got you,

480
00:19:58,322 --> 00:19:59,323
Froot Loop.

Evan! What up?

484
00:20:10,042 --> 00:20:11,752
Have you met Harry, the new guy?

485
00:20:11,752 --> 00:20:13,379
He's looking for some dry erasers.

486
00:20:13,379 --> 00:20:15,631
Kids keep drawing bubble butts
on his board.

487
00:20:15,631 --> 00:20:16,966
This guy hoards everything.

488
00:20:18,467 --> 00:20:20,094
I do have an extra eraser.

489
00:20:20,094 --> 00:20:21,929
Hey, I actually forgot
to introduce myself.

490
00:20:21,929 --> 00:20:23,847

- I--
- Nice.

492
00:20:25,015 --> 00:20:26,767
Gwen said you're from Louisiana.

493
00:20:26,767 --> 00:20:28,352
Yeah.

494
00:20:28,352 --> 00:20:30,020
My home got destroyed in the storm so--

495
00:20:30,020 --> 00:20:31,563
Oh, wow.

496
00:20:31,563 --> 00:20:34,400
Tryna build a new home here, you know?

497
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,318
That's great. I'm so sorry--

498
00:20:36,318 --> 00:20:38,445
It's not great. I'm sorry about the storm.

499
00:20:38,445 --> 00:20:40,322
It sucked.

500
00:20:42,157 --> 00:20:43,158
I like your shirt.

501
00:20:44,702 --> 00:20:45,869
This white shirt?

502
00:20:47,079 --> 00:20:48,080
Yeah.
