VERNON
Well...well. Here we are! I want
to congradulate you for being on
time...Claire raises her hand.
CLAIRE
Excuse me, sir? I think there's
been a mistake. I know it's
detention, but...um...I don't think I belong in here...Vernon doesn't care. He just continues to talk.
VERNON
It is now seven-oh-six. You have exactly eight hours and fifty-four minutes to think about why you're here. To ponder the error of your ways...Bender spits into the air and catches the spit in his mouth again.
Claire looks like she is going to gag.
VERNON
...and you may not talk. You will
not move from these seats.He glances up at Bender and points at him.
VERNON
...and you...Vernon pulls the chair out from under Bender's feet.
VERNON
...will not sleep. Alright people,
we're gonna try something a little different today. We are going to write an essay--of no less than a thousand words--describing to me who you think you are.BENDER
Is this a test?Vernon passes out paper and pencils and takes no notice
of Bender.VERNON
And when I say essay...I mean essay. I do not mean a single word repeated a thousand times. Is that clear Mr. Bender?Bender looks up.
BENDER
Crystal...VERNON
Good. Maybe you'll learn a little
something about yourself. Maybe you'll even--decide whether or not you care to return.Brian raises his hand and then stands.
BRIAN
You know, I can answer that right now sir...That'd be "No", no for me. 'cause...VERNON
Sit down Johnson...BRIAN
Thank you sir...He sits.
VERNON
My office...Vernon points.
VERNON
...is right across that hall. Any
monkey business is ill-advised...He looks around at them.
VERNON
...any questions?BENDER
Yeah...I got a question.Vernon looks at him suspiciously.
BENDER
Does Barry Manilow know you raid his wardrobe?VERNON
I'll give you the answer to that
question, Mr. Bender, next Saturday. Don't mess with the bull young man, you'll get the horns.Vernon leaves.
BENDER
That man...is a brownie hound...
