All language subtitles for The Substitute (1996).ENG

Comin' in!

Come on!
Double time!

Let's go! Let's go!
Come on!

Come on!

Come on.

Steady! Steady!

All right, guys.
Move out! Let's go!

Where's stark
and westlake?

Didn't make it.

Rudy too?

All three.

Oh, man!
What happened?

Cuban soldiers caught us in a
cross fire on the beach an hour
after you guys took off.

Shit, man.
That's bad, man.
We're fucked now.

Fidel Castro, today, accused
the United States of being
behind yesterday's raid

On what appears to have been
a drug processing plant
some 30 miles south of Havana.

A force of some 20 men landed
secretly--

twenty? What an insult, man.
It sure felt like 50.

Three of the men were killed
by Cuban military forces.

They've been tentatively
identified as James stark,
Kevin westlake

And Rudy Garcia,
all from the U.S.

Why don't you talk about
how many of them we killed,
you bureaucratic bitch?

U.S. officials flatly deny
any American involvement--

como tu madre,
fidel, maricon?

which they believe
was an independent venture
utilizing mercenaries

And possibly financed
by anti-Castro forces.

Officials went on the say
that there was no way

Such a raid
could have been launched--

in other words, we're
out of a fucking job.

Shit, man! I got
a mortgage to pay, bro.

Congress will launch a full
investigation into the raid.

Deny American involvement?
Deny that, motherfucker!

Hey, that's my TV, man!
You couldn't just change
the fuckin' channel?

I fuckin' changed
the channel, motherfucker.
Me and fuckin' Elvis.

Shit.

So what do we do now?

Nothin'.

We just wait.

Something'll come along.

Who is that?

Hey, get that fool!
Get him!

I'll teach you, man!

Now I'll show you!

Ohhhh!
You ain't done yet.

Stop it!

Who the fuck are you?
Get the fuck outta my face!

Jerome, are you okay?

Get off of me, man.
I don't need your
help, dude.

Why don't you try me, man?
Why don't you try me?

Mr. Tay!
I want you out of here!
Both of you, out!

Fuck you!
Go to class!

You're not supposed to be here.
Please go to class.

Go on!
Get outta here!

What is it with you?
You're determined to be o-t'd?

What? I'm standin' here.
Why you always hasslin' me?

I'm not hassling you,
Mr. Lacas.

I'm speaking to you because
you're an intelligent man.

I need you to look at me
for two minutes, Juan.

I've heard
the speeches, Jane.

I don't make speeches.
I'm speaking to you with
respect as a person.

Well, you're no person to me,
so back the fuck off.
'Cause if you don't--

if I don't what?

You'll fuckin'
wish you did.

What were his exact words?

That if I didn't back off,
I'd wish I did.

No, fucking
wish you did.

Yes.

That's terrible.

But technically speaking,
it doesn't constitute
a direct threat.

You mean he didn't say
he was gonna stab me with
a kitchen knife at 4:15 P.M.

No, he didn't say that.

But his attitude was
definitely threatening.

Come on. I can't
o-t him for attitude.

Look, Claude, you know me.
I don't quit on my kids.

But this guy is dangerous.
The kids are scared of him.

And believe it or not, some
of them are here to learn.

I agree. But I can't boot him
out without definite proof of wrongdoing.

I don't want a lawsuit
on my hands.

Fine.
You want proof?
I'll get you proof.

♪

Sorry.

Cute, sweetheart.
All for nothin', mama.

Why don't you stay
and have a beer with us?

Move your briefcase.
I wanna see that
beautiful ass, mama.

Fuck you up, bitch!

I'm gonna lick
your pussy like this.

Get the fuck outta the car,
you fuckin' bitch!

See you later, hetz!
We'll drop by the house.

You bastard. Ohh!

I've never been so happy to see
anybody in my whole life.

I missed you too.
What's going on?

Oh, nothing.
My students are trying
to kill me. How are you? Mmm.

Hey, come here.
Let me take care of it.

Come here.

Ohh! Ohh! Ohh!

Oh, shale!

Shale, you always had
the greatest hands.

I missed you, carina.

Hey! What are you
doing here anyway?

Aren't you supposed to be off
on some secret mission?

No, they retired us.

Really?
You okay with that?

No.

Ohhh! Ohhh!

What are you going to do?

I guess I'll be
a stockbroker.

Yeah, right.

I could be a stockbroker.

Shale? Joey.
Got a gig, man.

Meet me at 10:00
at the strip joint
lickety split.

Hey, it's uzi night.

♪

Try your luck.

Joey. Joey!
Tell me about the gig.

This guy's name is wolfson.
He's a lawyer.

I hate lawyers.

He's money.

This guy's got a client who's
looking for a trained crew.

Wants to meet you
tomorrow, 10:00.

Trained crew for what?

That's what
the meeting's for.

Aw, I don't know.
I don't like it.

You don't even know
what it is yet.

Drugs?

It's not drugs!

Now come on.
I busted my ass
to set this shit up.

Don't go in there
and fuck it up.

When the world is giving
you trouble, think John janus.

Soldier of fortune
magazine calls him
the ultimate mercenary.

And from Tripoli to Panama,
he's proven it.

Piano wire,knives,artillery,

land mines, bayonets,
helicopter repelling,

smoke jumping,
parachuting, karate,

missiles, guns
and his bare hands.

They don't call him
a one-man army for nothing.

So when you want clean,
private mercenary work

At reasonable rates,
think John janus.

That was so hot!

Yeah, it really was.
Who was the editor?

The guy that does
rock videos.

Thanks, John.

Thank you.

Why don't you stay and
watch Mr. Shale's reel?

I don't have a reel.

I see. Well,
why don't I show John out?

Yeah.

All right.

John.

Thank you, Matt.

Get yourself a video,
old timer.

Yeah.
Thanks for coming.

Hey, really very impressive,
we'll be in touch very soon.

All right.
Thank you very much.
See you now, sweet thing.

See ya soon, John.

Oh, god, that's better.
I've been holding that
for 20 minutes.

Thank you for sharing.

Ten grams of fiber
every morning.

Flushes all the toxins
right out of your system.

It's great.
Regularity is the key.

You want some?

No, thanks.
I flushed this morning.

Orange juice, decaf, tea?

No, thank you. Can we talk
about the job at hand?

You're a real cut-to-the-chase
kind of guy, huh, shale?

That's me.
Thank you, dierdre.

Sure, Matt.

Well, good.
I like that.

All right.

My client runs a large
import business dealing
in south American goods.

And obviously, his business
depends on a steady
flow of product.

Regularity's the key?

Very good. Exactly.

I mean, delays can cost you
a large chunk of the market.

We're looking
for trained soldiers who
can guarantee the shipments

And who also have the ability
to deal decisively with anyone
who tries to interfere.

Like who, for instance?

Well, our competitors,
certain government agencies--

which sometimes amounts
to pretty much the same thing.

Ahhh. So, what
you're looking for

Is a crew to protect
your drug shipments,

possibly kill
any rival dealers?

And maybe even government
agents if they happen
to get in the way?

Didn't I say you were
a cut-to-the-chase kind of guy?

You don't want soldiers.
You want killers.

You'll have to excuse me
here, shale,

because I wasn't aware
there was a difference.

Oh, there's a difference.
You wanna know what
the difference is?

Yeah. I'll play.
You tell me what
the difference is.

But I don't want any--

the difference is--
the difference is
you're still breathing.

Hey, that cereal
really does work.

What's with you?

I told you no drugs.

Did the plate in your head
shift or something, shale?

That's all that's out there.
What am I supposed to do?
At least it's a job.

A job, Joey? A job?

You ever look up
the word mercenary?

It's someone who works
merely for money.

Everybody works for money.

It's not the money
that bothers me.
It's the merely.

My name's Smith.
I'm her substitute.

Ah, Claude rolle.
I'm the principal.

Oh, good to meet you.

You're not one

She wanted Michael Jones,

So he called me.

Well, good. I'll point you

Thank you.

Janie's ill?

She got mugged.

No? That's terrible!

Hey, hey, hey! Put that
skateboard in your locker.
Is she okay?

Well, apparently.
But I don't really

Can't be too careful.
She's a fighter, though.
She'll pull through.

Don't start with me, Darryl.

I know it's yours.
It stays black after
you pour the cream in it.

Hey! You're subbing
for Jane hetzko, right?

Right.

Right. Darryl sherman.
English and drama.

I'm Jim Smith.
Good to meet you.

You too.

Is it true
they broke her kneecap?

Uh, that's what I heard.

Sons of bitches.
I get my hands on 'em,
I'll show 'em a thing or two.

Life it too short
to mess with the k.O.D.

I'm Hannah Dillon,
school librarian.

I'm Jim Smith.
Good to meet you.

Stay away from the coffee.

You drink it.

I'm immune.

Excuse me.
What is the k.O.D.?

The kings of destruction.
They're the top gang
in the school.

Posse, please.
You're so unhip.

Could they possibly have been
responsible for what happened
to miss hetzko?

It's possible.

Possible?

Nothing happens around here
that isn't inspired
by the k.O.D.,

or kod as I like
to think of them.

Why would they
have been after her?

Lacas threatened her.
She wanted him transferred.

Juan lacas?

Yeah. Yeah, he's
the leader of the k.O.D.
He's a pain in the ass.

Why wasn't he
just transferred?

Ask rolle.
It was his decision.

Criticize rolle all you want.
He was a cop. He knows the law.

No evidence, no case. Period.

That's right, Darryl.
You keep the faith.

You know, if Hannah had her way,
we'd go back to the days

When you could bludgeon a kid
for lookin' at you cross-eyed.

I know.
I went to school here.

So rolle was a cop, huh?

Yeah, the gang unit. You know,
he's an amazing man, rolle.

Now.

Excuse me,
Mr. Rolle?

I'm looking for Juan lacas's
file, and the secretary
said that you had it.

The file is under review
at the moment, Mr.--

Smith.

Smith, right.

If it was petarusky,
I'd remember. Come on.

Have a seat.

Speaking of
unusual commitment,

how is it that a cop
becomes a high school
principal?

You want the short version?

I was at the Liberty city
riots in 1980.

Not the best time to be
a black cop in Miami.

You watch your own
neighborhood burn down,

people you grew up with
getting shot and busted.

You suddenly face

devastation or education.

I chose the latter.

Went to night school,
got my certificate,

got my masters
and now here I am.

And running for
city council, I hear.

Well, if the voters are wise.

And what's your background,
Mr. Smith?

Oh, standard
liberal arts education.

I was a government
bureaucratic worker,

mostly in health, education
and welfare department.

Then, uh, well, I guess
like you, I wanted to teach.

Won those scars
in the halls of academe?

Nah. Nuns, eighth grade.

Well, you better
get back to work.

About those files,
I really can't issue them
to a temporary employee.

Sorry.

No problem at all.
Thanks for your time.

Oh, I gotta ask.

Doesn't it make you nervous
wearing a watch like that
around here?

This watch was a gift
from the junior league.

Anyone trying to take this watch
is gonna have to take this arm.

It's been known to happen.
Hell, they hack 'em off
with chain saws now.

Students in wood shop
make these for me.

Every year at first assembly,
I give a little demonstration.

Power perceived
Is power achieved.

I'd remember that
little truism, Mr. Smith.

It will assist you greatly
in your teaching.

Nice tie. Don't think
we're gonna need insurance.

You haven't heard
the gig yet.

Come on.
Tell us what it is.

It's something
a little different.

Who gives a shit, man?
I just wanna get back
in the action.

It's a school.
Damn, that is a school!

I told you, man.

What kind of school?

A high school.
I'm substituting there.

Substitute for what?

For Janie. She got
kneecapped by a gang.
She's in the hospital.

Oh, shit!

And we all feel bad
for Janie, right?

But a high school?

What's in it for us?

Well, probably nothing up front,
but there might be something on
the back end.

Maybe something
on the back end.

You mind tellin' me
what the fuck is wrong
with this picture, man?

First you turn down wolfson.
Now you want us to go do a job
at a high school on deferment!

Hollan! Chill out, man.
Chill out yourself!

High school is bullshit, man!
You all know what's wrong here.

Well, why don't you
tell us, hollan?

I'll tell it, man.
Cuba wimped you out.

You lost your mind
and your fucking balls!

Aahhhh, fuck!

Maybe I'll borrow yours.

Goddamn it!

On second thought,
maybe they're too small.

Fuck you, man!
Fuckin' queers.

Look, no promises,
but I'm telling you there's
somethin' wrong there.

They're not doing
their homework?

Look, all I can tell you is
these kids are walkin' around

With cellular phones and pagers,
and driving $50,000 bmws.

There's drugs here, and where
there's drugs, there's cash.

We're not gonna walk out

You had to be resourceful

You a dead motherfucker, man!

Shut up, Jerome!
And you, hand over

What ice pick?
I ain't got no ice pick.

This is my class, Rodriguez.
I know everything, and I
don't allow weapons in here.

This ain't your class, bitch.
I'll carry what the fuck I want.

Aahhh!

It's impolite to stick your

Would you like it

All right, hand over

Thank you.

Yeah, sure, Rodriguez.
Go ahead. Take tay with you.

Come on, bitch.

Here, man,
take this with you.

Anybody else want to go?

Okay, let's get back
to Vietnam.

Would anybody happen
to know where it is?

It's in Korea, right?

We facilitated
a day care program

So that our young mothers
can come back to school and
still see their children.

Fuck! God, no!

Excuse me.

Get me some ice or somethin'.
This shit is killin' me.

What's going on here?

Yo, ask Mr. Smith. I'm
suing this fucking place!

Owww!

Stop that language!

Marvin, we got trouble
in room 3-b.

Hey! Get to class.

I was a member of a special
ops team called mercs.

Long-range reconnaissance
teams that were choppered out
to the jungle,

in areas along
the ho chi minh trail.

Fighting with these
native mountain tribes.

So when we'd run out of
bullets, we'd have to take
the weapons--

their ak-47's off the enemy
dead-and use their ammo.

That way we could keep
fighting, keep advancing.

That sound like a Saturday
night in Miami, you know?

My uncle got his legs
blown off in Vietnam,

but he doesn't
talk about it.

We was over there
'cause of Hitler, right?

Fuck no, dog.
That's world war I
you talkin' about.

No, no, those were earlier
wars. We were in the 'nam to
fight communism.

That's why my family left Cuba,
because Castro turned communist.

Uh-huh.

Yo, Mr. Smith.

How many people
did you kill in Vietnam?

Si. Cuantos?

I never counted, Martinez.

Mr. Smith?
You lost any homeboys?

Yeah, I lost some homeboys.

Me too, dog.
Mostly drive-bys though.
You know what I mean?

You ever been shot,
Mr. Whatever-your-name-is?

Sucker.

Yeah, I've been shot.

Yo, check this out.
I've been sliced and shot.

Fuck that shit, kid.
I got shot. Can you know
what I'm saying?

I got a ak in the leg, man.
That's what I'm talkin' about.

See ya.

Two of your students
are in the nurse's office
talking a lawsuit right now.

Why, is the nurse a lawyer?

Corporal punishment
is no longer allowed in
the dade county school system.

It wasn't corporal punishment,
it was self-defense.

And power achieved
is power perceived.

Well, I will admit
you got their attention.

Uh-huh.

Which is good, but I
can't afford a lawsuit.

Now if you were to apologize
to these two young men--

that'll be the fuckin' day.

Then you leave me no choice.
I'm gonna have to let you go.

No, no, no, no, wait a minute.

You can't fire me
without two weeks notice.

Not unless you want a hearing
in front of the school board.

Hey, you do
what you have to do.

On the other hand,
I want to be fair.

You go ahead
and take your two weeks.

Thanks.
That's all I wanted.

James Smith.

Here we are.

He's in the computer?

Yes.

What's his background?

Smith, James.

He's a Harvard grad
with a masters from Yale.

Wait, make that
two masters from Yale.

This guy's amazing.

Wow, a phd from Princeton.

Laid it on a little thick,
didn't you, rem?

Yeah, well, what do you want
on such short notice?

Damn, man,
if I didn't know better,

I'd think he was startin'
to take this teaching shit
seriously, man.

You don't have to help me.
I'm okay. I'm not a baby.

Get it. Easy.

Ohhh. I'm home!

I don't have any groceries.
I don't have any Percocet.

My god, look at the mail!

Can you just come over here
and get something to eat?

Why didn't you bring it
to me in the hospital?
I could've done something.

Just sittin' there.
I'm doing nothing.

Miss hetzko, this is Jim Smith.

I just want to tell you that
everything is under control
at school,

and for you to get better
and not to worry.

What's he doing?
Teaching them at gunpoint?

This is themiami herald, and--

What is it?

Hey, miss h.
What's with you?

You were the only teacher I had
who really cared about me.

Please get well
and don't give up on us.

Love, Lisa Rodriguez.

That was very nice.
Yeah.

Come on, Janie. Don't cry. Sit
down and have a shrimp roll.

I'm not crying.

Smith probably made her
send it anyway.

Oh, no he didn't.

Ohhh!
How do you know?

I don't know!
But it just goes to figure

There might be a few kids that
send you a card on their own.

Well, it's obvious
you have never taught
at Columbus high.

So, the war in Vietnam
was about turf.

The gangs in the north
wanted to take over the turf
of the gangs in the south.

Oh, look who made it!

You're late, Juan.
That'll be one demerit.

One demerit?

What do I do, write
I'm sorry 10 times
on the blackboard?

No. You're gonna
write it 100 times.

Let's go.

Life is a chess game, Juan.
This is a crucial move.

I want you
to think it over.

No, you're the one
who should have thought it
through, motherfucker.

Oh, believe me,
I have, Juan. I have.

Yo, Freddy krueger,
knock it off. This is not
a manicure shop.

Get some real nails, girl.
These are real, baby, okay?

Fuck you all.

Hey, really?

Jerome, do you know what
your name means in apache?
No, what it mean?

Geronimo.

Geronimo.

That word apache in their
language means the outcast,
the shunned ones.

Like their emblem,
like players today.
Outlaws, bandits.

And that translates easy enough
into the biker gangs of the
'50s and '60s-my times.

The beaver days, yo.

Yeah. Yeah, I belonged
to a group called the dragons.

All right, what were
the black bikers?

Yeah, what were
the brothers?

They were called the chaplains.
Chaplains?

The chaplains
were black?

What they wore, penny loafers?

No. But there were the biggest,
baddest black group of the '50s.

And where I grew up, it was
the dragons and the enchanters.

And the enchanters
were the girls.

Mr. Smith,
how old were you?

Uh, I was 12 years old
when I became a junior dragon.

Oh, I see.

Mr. Smith
was a badass, huh?

So, Mr. Smith, what were some of
the other black gangs?

Well, gangs died out a little
bit in the late '60s, but, um,
came back in the '70s.

There was a gang
called the black spades.

So these black spades, they
was all, like, homeboys?

All homeboys.
Five thousand strong
all over the city of Miami.

Dang!

Five thousand!

Yo, Mr. Smith.
If there was 5,000, why are we
sitting in this classroom?

Okay. What's the future
of staying in a gang?

Bitches, dog. Bitches.
Money, hos and clothes.

Yeah, yeah.

Maybe a one-way ticket
to the joint?

Gotcha.
I wanna get high, high, high.

Straight up, smoking.

No, I didn't mean that,
Rodriguez. I'm talking
aboutthe joint.

You know,
raeford prison, upstate?

Nah, that can't happen,
Mr. Smith. We're all juveniles.

Until you're 18. Then they throw
your ass in a cell, and you
become somebody's sweet boy.

You're gonna get fucked
in jail, yo.

They've gotta
catch me first.

What are we supposed to do?
Work in some fast food joint
makin' some minimum wage?

Better than
a gang funeral, isn't it?

How many of those
you been to?

Too many.
Too fuckin' many.

Is that what you want
for yourselves?

What you want for you kids?

How many of you in here
have kids?

You got a kid, yo?

How many want them
to be in gangs?

No? Why not?
If it's so great.

Yeah, but it's different
when you talk about your kids.

Oh, yeah? Why?

'Cause you don't want to see
your kids get into trouble
or get hurt or get busted.

Well, I don't want to see you
kids get hurt or get busted.

So what are we
supposed to do?

Well, I'm not gonna
bullshit you. I don't
have all the answers.

But I'd like to see
all of you survive.

Mr. Smith.

I want to commend you
on the way you handled lacas.

And the best part is, you did it
without violence. I like that.

Tell you what.
Come by my office
after the faculty meeting.

We'll talk. Okay?

Okay.

Put those out
and get to class.

Today after the faculty meeting.

Oh, man.
Oh, they're so beautiful.
I need them.

Thank you. Hi.

How you doin'?

Oh, thank you so much.

Let me take those.

No. No. Let me
hold them. You just
go sit on the couch.

Okay. All right.
You got that?

Yeah, I'm better.

Look at me,
I'm so strong.

How's your knee?

It's great.

Yeah? I'm sorry
I didn't get by sooner.

Oh, that's okay.

Hey, you look

What's that?

What's what?

Oh, these are the hairdos

Uh-huh.

Yeah, that's you.

I wanted my hair to be just

do it for me.

Anyway, forget
about that. Let's
talk about school.

Everybody missing me?
Everybody thinking about me?
Nope.

That substitute
you hired is amazing.
Where'd you find him?

Oh, I didn't find him.
Shale found him.

Shale?
Yeah, the guy I met
in Nicaragua.

Yeah? Nicaragua?

Is that picture

Yeah.

What were you doing
in Nicaragua?

I was teaching.
He was in the military.

You know.
One of those on-again,

What'd you tell him?
You tell me what happened.

I don't know.
But I say something's
going on, man.

This ain't

He can't be.

I'll worry about him.
You just do what

Hello.

Hi, Joey.

Fine. Yep.
He's here.

Yeah.

Where are you?

Okay. I'll be there
in 10 minutes.

Gotta go.
Mm-hmm.

Janie.

Yeah?

About the teaching,
I'll do whatever
you want me to do.

I just want
the same thing
I always wanted,

which is that you just
be straight with me.

I guess that's kinda hard
when your whole life's
a covert operation.

Where is this guy?

You can always
count on him.

What's goin' on?

The little banger pulled
a car switch at the fruit
stand on Griffin road.

It's owned by an Indian
named Johnny glades.
You heard of him?

Yeah.
The drug dealer?

No. Reputed.
He's never
been convicted.

The police surveil
his ass all the time
and never turn up shit.

Hey, hey.

That's the Indian
that hit Janie.

Yeah. He's the muscle.

The other asshole
must be the one
who knows how to count.

Arms out at your side.

Fuck. Fuck!

Payback time. Come on.
Get up, linebacker boy.

Yeah, you, dummy!
Go on. Get up!

It's your lucky day, man.
Come on. Kick his ass.

Oh, man.
That looks like it hurts.

Go on.
Lay into him, boy!

Come on.
Kick yourself

I'll be damned.
The son of a bitch
can kick too.

No, no, no, no!

Early morning joggers
made a grisly discovery,

the results
of what police believe
was a drug deal gone bad.

Now, detectives
have been combing
the scene all morning.

They're looking
for clues.

What they're trying
to establish is
were the victims killed here?

Or were they killed
in another location?

Toxicology tests
will be performed
on the bodies.

Hello.

Claude?

Yeah?

Half a million bucks.
What's going on, Claude?

I wish I knew.

You know
they shot bull?

I'm sorry
to hear that.

Hold on. I want you
to hear somethin'.

Hear what?

No. Come on, man.
He was my buddy.

Hear what happens
to the guy responsible
if I don't get my money back.

What was that all about?

Nothing.

Lacas!

Did you rip off
Johnny glades
last night?

You lie to me
and I'll rip
your fuckin' head off.

Me?

Did you tell anybody
about the buy
last night? Anybody?

Look at me,
goddamn it!

I did what the fuck
I was supposed to,
man, and I split.

You think those
fuckin' Indians want me
knowing their business?

Yeah, well,
somebody found out.

And we could be
in real deep shit.

Everybody, listen up.
We've got some
announcements here.

The reclamation committee
has generously donated

Some equipment
to Columbus high school.

They'll be giving it out

We've got

vcrs, laptop
computers and books,

musical instruments,
art supplies
and lab equipment.

And, oh, yeah,
pizza for everybody.
No anchovies.

You don't teach history
anymore, Smith.
You are history.

Don't these people
belong in class?

Yo!

Let's go!

Don't drop it!

Brand new tubas
for the band.

That's right on.

Yeah, right on.

Jerome, find your homes with
your wife or somethin'?

Yeah, that's why
I divorced her.

What's up, man?

Hey, Jerome.

What's goin' on?

All right.

I saw how you handled
them boys yesterday.
I liked that.

I liked--
matter of fact,
you're my dog now.

As a matter of fact,

s-dog.

Thanks, Jerome.

I'll take that
as a compliment.

No doubt.

Check you
later, man.

What?

Mr. Shale.

It's Smith.
Be cool, all right?

Nah, I'm cool.
So this is
a personal mission,

or a joint operation
between the c.I.A.
And the p.T.A.?

Okay.
Look, I'm just messin'
with you, all right?

You're tryin'
to get the k.O.D.,
and I wanna help.

Forget it.

What do you mean,
forget it?

You think you're
the great white hope.

You gonna come in here
and show us how to clean
things up?

This is my school, shale.
I'm the one that's still gonna
be here after you leave.

So if there's
a problem,
I wanna help.

All right,
Mr. S-dog.

All right.
All right.

So what do you
want me to do?

Nothing.

Well, the next move
is rolle's.

Rolle?

Uh-huh.

What's he got
to do with it?

He's in business with lacas
and a drug dealer
named Johnny glades.

No, man.
That's bullshit.

No, it's true. I don't know
how they work it yet,
but it's a matter of time.

The man has done
too many things
for the community--

what do you want
me to say?

I don't want you to say
anything, 'cause now
I know what this is about.

Oh, yeah.
What's that?

Politics. Every time
you got a black man
running for office

Trying to make a change,
you got a white man
trying to run him down.

He's dealing
drugs, Darryl.

That's bullshit.

Johnny?
That money you lost,

I know
where it went.

Ahh.

Beautiful.

Tilt those little puppies
over here, baby.

One for you.

Mm-hmm.

And one
for me.

To the very, very
generous Mr. Smith.

Well, hey, what do
you expect from
a Harvard, Princeton,

Cornell, rutgers,
Yale grad?

You know, it's too bad
that most of my students
think that Yale is a lock.

Okay. Okay.
Now, let's talk about this
parent-teacher conference thing.

Oh, come on, Janie.
I don't wanna talk
shoptalk tonight.

Shale, it's tomorrow night.
You've gotta be briefed.

I know. I just tell the parents
what the kids are doing.
Come on. It's so easy.

I want you to be positive.
I want you to think about one
good thing for every student.

There's at least one good
thing for every student.

You have to educate
and encourage the parents
as much as the kids.

Oh! Oh, god.
Oh, itchy!

Oh, not again.

Oh, why does it always
have to itch at a spot
where I can't reach it?

Oh, please.

Here. Let me--

I can't get it.
I can't get it.

Let me get it.
Let me try from the
other end. Here.

Here. Here.
It's right here.

Okay.

Oh, please
hurry, shale.

Ohh! Ohh.
Higher. Higher. Higher.

Okay.
Okay.

Ah. Ah. Ahh.

Oooh.
Oooh. Ahh.

I can't get higher

Through here--

I'm gonna have
to come in from up top.

You dog.

What?

What?
You know what.

Come over here.

Attention, parents
and teachers.

School will be closing
in five minutes.

Five minutes.
Thank you.

Lisa, you're
still here.

Yeah, I was helping
miss Adams with some refreshments.

Look, there are
some boys outside
that are bugging me.

Do you mind if I just
wait here for a while?

Sure. Have a seat.

Uh, I got some papers
to finish. I'll be done
in a minute.

And that's about
all I got on young Arturo.

Miss hetzko'll
have to fill you in
on the rest.

Anyway, thanks for coming in,
miss Suarez.

Thank you.

Yes.

Good.

I think I'm doing good,
so I don't know what else
I'm supposed to do.

Well, if you want,
I'll be happy
to talk to her.

That'd be good.

Huh?

What the hell
is this?

You know,
have your mom
call me

And we'll set up
a time when
we can get togeth--

these doors
shouldn't be locked.

Come on. We'll go out
through the basement.

There's a security
office down here,
and they'll let us out.

You need a ride home
or anything?

You sure it's not
out of your way?

No. Not at all.

At least an hour and a half.
Shit.

Lacas.

Come on, come on!
Down here!

You guys go that way.
You come with me.

Whatever happens,
stay put!

But, Mr. Sherman--

no, listen.

Tell Smith.
Tell him everything.
Okay?

Got the guy!
Over here!

Oh.
Here we go.

Come down.
You gonna make me
come up there and get you?

Where you going,
Darryl?

Fuck you, rolle.

You're going down, rolle.
Smith is puttin' you away.

Smith's dead, Darryl.
Drive-by, very ugly.

You're a liar!
I know.
It upset me too.

Give it up, Darryl.

It's over.
Get it?

Aah!

Nice aim.

Fuck you, rolle.

Shame you have
to end up this way.
Crawling like a worm.

But that's how you lived,
so why not?

At least I didn't sell out
my own people, motherfucker.

Sell out?

I look at you,
and you know what I see?

I see me when I was
young and stupid.

I see me when
I was soft.

And that just
don't cut it.

Young man,

I'm just
doing you a favor.

Who died?

You did, sir.

I guess I am
a little late.

Mr. Smith.

What's goin' on?
They sayin' you got wasted
in some drive-by.

Yeah!

Who said that?

Rolle. The principal
made an announcement
this morning.

That's what we heard.

Told us about sherman too.

What? What about Mr. Sherman?

Somebody found his body
off the palmetto.

Wasted.

Shot in the head
and all that.

What happened?

I don't know.

I say we take this guy
out right here.

Like you did last time?

Look,
either he's an undercover cop
or he's workin' for the mob.

How did he become
hetzko's substitute?

Maybe you should
ask her.

Harvard, Princeton, my ass.
I oughta have my goddamned
head examined.

I don't know
where he is, Mr. Smith.

He has nothing
on his calendar
until 3:30.

What's at 3:30?

Let's see.
A Mr. Wolfson
at the jai alai fronton.

Thanks.

Jerome.

Look, I have to go someplace.
I need you to take over
my class today.

You're fuckin'
with me, right?

No. I'm counting
on you, son.

Yo, yo. Mr. Smith
asked me to teach you
motherfuckers today.

Oh, babe, you the teacher?

Yo, Mr. Smith hitting
that crack rock?

The only crack around
here's in your head, dude.

I'll keep it open for you
real good, you don't pay
attention to what I got to say.

I'm Mr. Brown to you now.
I'm the substitute
for Mr. Smith.

You dis me,
you dissin' Mr. Smith.

Rodriguez, you're late.
That's one demerit.

Jerome, I need
to see Mr. Smith.
Where is he?

Jerome,
it's important.

Wolfson!

Shale.
What a surprise.

Tell me about rolle
and Johnny glades.

Who? I never
heard of them.

You ever heard
of getting a cesta
shoved up your ass?

Jesus Christ, man.
What are you, nuts?

You can't come
into a public place
and threaten people.

I mean,
there's a phone.
I'll call the police.

Go ahead.

Just hold it.
Right there.

I mean, what the fuck
do you think
you're doing?

I will
defend myself.
Wha--

Okay. Okay.
You got me.

Can we be reasonable
about this?

Sure.

Tell me about glades
and rolle.
I don't know anything.

Aah! God damn!

God, i'm
enjoying this!

Listen, listen.
Listen to me now.

All I know
is they wanted me

To hire some people
to bodyguard
the incoming shipment.

Is that the gig
me and janus
were up for?

Yeah. And I wanted you, shale.
I swear to god I told him
this guy's the best--

oww! Aah! Jesus--
flattery's gonna
get you killed.

How long has rolle
been on glades's
payroll? Huh?

I don't know.
No, no, no!

I know he was
gettin' paid off
when he was a cop.

And then, when he
became a teacher,
they just started

Funneling the drugs
through the school.

How'd they do it?
They, uh-they--

the k.O.D.
The k.O.D., I guess.

The k.O.D., they said.
But I don't know
how they store it.

I don't know how they
transport it. I don't
know any of that shit.

You're killing me
here, man.

You have no reason
to kill me.

Once, I'm gonna be reasonable.

You're gonna leave the country
tonight and you're not coming
back, or I'm gonna kill you.

Otherwise, I'm gonna
be unreasonable.
Am I clear?

Yeah, if you
don't hit me again.

Hey!

This the one?

Yeah. Three.

Hello.

It's Jerome and Lisa,
miss hetzko.

Mr. Smith,
this is Jane hetzko.

I've got those
papers graded

If you could drop by
and pick them up.

Thank you.

Come here.

Okay. Okay.

Don't be stupid,
you hear me?

Who is it?

Shale.

Who's shale?

He's a friend of mine.

Yeah, well,
get rid of him.

I can't talk to you now.

I brought you something
from Smith.

Okay, buzz him in.

I'll be right here.

All right.
Take the package.

Hi.

Hola!

Shale, the kids!
The kids!

Mr. Whatever-your-name-is,
you in my classroom now, motherfucker.

You're no fuckin' teacher.
Who the fuck are you?
Leave him alone!

Stay down.

Who is he?
He's a merc.

A merc?
You hired a fuckin' merc?

Get me the phone.

I don't know who he's
working for. He wanted to
know if you two had a deal.

What'd you tell him?

Nothing.
You think I'd be here
if I told him anything?

Do you know
this shale guy?

Yeah, he did the Cuba raid.
He's the guy I told you about
at wolfson's place.

Oh, the guy that made
you shit in your pants!

Shit, man.
Again with that.
That was the fiber.

I need my money now.
What's the hurry?

I have a plane
to catch in 40 minutes.

My father, he's--
he's extremely ill and
I have to go see him.

Get him his money.

Sounds like
this Smith and shale
are working together.

Yeah, right. A merc working
with a high school teacher?

He's not a teacher.
That's a cover.

He's either
a narc or a dealer
trying to muscle in.

Yeah. Hello. Talk.

You're shittin' me.

You've got to be
shittin' me.

I don't care who he is.
When we hang up, kill him.

Are we enjoying this?

Jane, what's all the racket?

It's my landlady.

Will you open up?

Come on.

Get rid of her
or she dies too.
You hear me?

What's all the banging
in there?

I'm sorry, Mrs. Andrewson.
I had the TV on too loud.

What's wrong
with your face, dear?

I'm fine, I'm fine.
I'll turn te TV down.

Take him out!
Goddamn it, take him out!

Give it up!

Drop it
or she dies.
Now!

Slow. Okay.
Now back up.

Keep your hands
where I can see them.

Lights out, motherfucker.

Jerome.

It's not your fault.

What the hell
were you two
doing here anyway?

Looking for you.

Why?

Rolle was bringing in dope
on buses and storing it
in the boiler room.

Mr. Sherman led them
away from me so they
wouldn't find me.

And then that's when
they killed him.

I want you
to stay here.
It'll be safe.

Where are
you going?

I have to go
to the high school.
Gotta get the drugs.

You think that rolle
and Johnny glades

Are gonna let you
just walk in
and take their drugs?

If we get
there first.

There's a key
to the house.

If anything
happens to me,

I want you
to have this place.

I don't want
you to go.

I don't want
you to go.

I'll be back, Jane.

You better.

I will.

Goodness!

Thinks he's funny,
don't he?

Joey, get that.

Uh, hello?

Yeah.

It's Louie beaver.
He says he's seen

Shale and some
other guys going
into the school.

Tell him to sit tight
and keep a lookout.

Oh, shit.

Car approaching north perimeter.

Be right there.

Looks like we
got our company.

Yeah, well, don't worry.
I'll throw them a real
nice surprise party.

Good.

That's far enough
right there, rolle.

Just take it easy.

I just wanna
make a deal.

Your deal sucks,
Mr. Principal.
Okay. Tell us your terms.

Quite simple.
I want it all.

Keep him talking.

You can't
do that, shale.

It's done, Claude.
You start anything now,

all you'll do
is bring the cops
down on all of us.

Don't worry about the cops.
They're taken care of.

Anyway, you
need us, shale.

For what?

You won't be able
to work it without
our distribution system.

What's so good
about it?

It's foolproof.
We bus it in, store it,

use the k.O.D.
To mainline it directly
into the school system.

You can't do
better than that.

And they said busing
would never work.

Sniper in palm tree.

Ohh!

There's more company moving in.

There are two groups.

Janus and his men
are going around the back.

Hollan, watch
your back down there.

And also
around the side.

Ohh!

Aah!

Move it!

Aah!

Let's go!
Let's move!

Aah!

The lock is broke.
Check the stuff.
Hurry!

Smile. You're
oncandid camera.

All right, shale.
You got me.
What ya gonna do?

I'm gonna put you
on my demo reel.

Now walk over
to the blackboard
and face it.

Easy.

I'm sorey.

It's a special mantra
for flunk-ees.
Put the weapon down.

Boom.

Rem?

Wellman.

Wellman? Shit.

Shale, I got four
dead cowboys here.

And one very fucked-up
looking Indian,
Johnny glades.

Can I put him out
of his misery,
pretty please?

No! Wait'll
I get there, hollan.

You hear that, Johnny?

As soon as shale gets here,
I'm gonna scalp you, motherfucker.

You know what you look like
with that shit
all over your face?

You look like a little snow
angel at the top of a Christ--

ugh.

Shale, watch out.
It's a trap.

Watch that door.

Where the fuck
is he?

Drop 'em!
Drop 'em!

Where's my guy?

Get up!

Get up.

Who you working for, shale?
Who you working for?

Myself.

Oh, yeah, right.
A great teacher.

You're a mercenary.
You're in it for the money.

It was never about money.

It's always
about the money.

If it's not about the money
what the hell else is there?

I'd try to explain it to you,
Claude, but some things
just can't be taught.

Oh, god.

I thought
I lost you, man.

Not this time, Joey.

Rem and wellman?

Hollan too.

So you're just gonna
stand there, shale?

Bleeding and shit.
Making a mess.

Let's get
outta here.

Cops have got great
response time.

What did it take 'em,
three hours?

Rolle said they were on his
payroll. What do you expect?

Uh, it's definitely
time to relocate.

Yeah.

It's too bad we had
to fuck up the school.
I feel bad for the kids.

They'll be okay.
At least it's
their school again.

Yeah. Where the hell
we gonna go, man?

Oh, how's
L.A. sound?

Like more
palm trees.

I hear the schools
out there have
a major drug problem.

No, uh. No more
schools, man.
Forget it.

You could
teach p.E.

P.e? Ho. What,
I look retarded?

Okay, math.

Fuck that.
