I'm good. Well?

We're all set For saturday night. Oh!

Earthquake!

[thud]

Take cover!

Ow!

Why aren't you under the table?

If I'd wanted to play dust mop, I'd have worn your clothes.

Miss julian, this is An earthquake drill.

If you stay there, You will be crushed by six tons

Of falling plaster and other Assorted roofing materials.

Hmm.

On second thought, don't move.

[both] I declare a thumb war.

You find natural disaster funny? [both] No, sir.

You do know when The earth cracks open,

Young lovers Are swallowed up first!

Something wrong? What? No. No.

They're really cute together. Aren't they?

Yeah. Mickey's Found his minnie.

Ah! No talking, people!

This is a simulated disaster.

Hello there.

Are you bobbi glass?

I am.

Who might be asking?

Falling bricks, cherry! Take cover!

I'm calvin krupps, The new vice principal.

Thank you, jesus.

I didn't mean To interrupt you here.

Oh, gosh, no. Pish posh.

No interruption here. I'm just...

Preparing the small Fry for the big one. Ah.

And he is here.

Do you mind if I say A few words to the class?

Let's go, people! Back to your seats!

Thank you.

Good morning.

As some of you May already know,

In light of the recent Harassment problems

And smackdown in the girls' lav,

Your principal Is currently attending

A sensitivity seminar At chino state prison.

In her absence, I have been invited

To join kennedy's staff

To deal specifically With disciplinary problems.

Now, let me just start By saying, I am not a policeman.

But I bet You own the outfit.

Sorry. [coughs] Sure.

I happen to be a firm believer In preventative measures.

If you mop up the gasoline, you Don't have to fear a lit match.

Any questions so far?

- yes. - yes.

Um, sir, what exactly Would one have to do

To get spanked?

♪ think it over once or twice ♪

♪ what lasts the longest in this life ♪

♪ character or rock-hard thighs ♪

♪ in the end do you believe ♪

♪ that beauty lies in what you see ♪

♪ 'cause if you do, then, baby ♪

♪ you've been deceived ♪

♪ well, me and b ♪

♪ we hate supermodels ♪

♪ it's just that I'm tired of being compared ♪

Ah. More questions.

Let's say some dude Breaks into your locker

And steals your Mary j. Blige calendar.

Has that happened to you? Me?

Yo. Tango with sugar d.,

Your butt goes Flyin' off a "T."

That is not the way we deal With conflict, mr. Daddy.

Any student Who would do such a thing

Is clearly off-balance.

Any negative energy you toss out There comes right back at you...

Twofold.

If every individual In this room found their center,

The need to attack others would Disappear, along with confusion

And self-doubt.

Now, have any of you ever Studied the martial arts?

Ah. Good. And-and what

Attracted you to That discipline, mr...

Uh, dick. I'm a devoted fan Of mr. David carradine.

His brilliance has never been Fully appreciated by the public.

O-

Kay.

Well, I happen to be A devoted fan of tai chi.

Practicing this Ancient chinese art

Has made me master Of my own realm.

It has given me direction, Purpose, confidence.

Now, when you Get up in the morning,

What is the first Thing you think about?

Changing his sheets. [laughter]

I wasn't speaking to you.

But you will at some point. Right? Please.

Again, what is the first...

How I can't wait To get outta here.

And what do you plan On doing after graduation?

Uh, sleeping till 9:00. Is that it?

I find it hard to believe Your goals are no loftier

Than that of a siamese cat.

What are you passionate about?

What do you want To do with your life?

What makes your heart race?

Can you, like, Ask somebody else?

I'm not trying to embarrass you. I'm trying to open doors.

Help you not be afraid Of your dreams.

If you had a driving force...

Yeah. Well, I don't. Okay?

Then I suggest you-- All of you--

Join my tai chi Class tomorrow.

5:30 a.M.

"5:30 a.M. Be there."

Who died and made him buddha?

So he's A little dudley do-right.

In some Tight chinese pajamas.

Bring on the soy sauce.

Tell me you find him sexy.

[both] I find him sexy.

[sighs] How's the loaf?

What?

Meat loaf. You taste the dill?

Uh...

Can't say that I did, mrs. Krupps,

But, uh, thanks for asking.

Mrs. Krupps,

You're not, By any chance, related to...

Calvin? He's my nephew.

Easy on the eyes, huh?

See? It's all in The wrist. Ooh! Look.

Who taught you to do that? My grandma.

She's, like, Super-talented with a knife,

Which is probably why My grandfather won't get

Within ten feet of her.

Do you want a piece?

Yeah. Okay.

Ah! Ooh! Careful.

[popita] You guys, I'm telling you. She's his aunt.

I asked her.

No way vera and calvin Are swimming In the same gene pool.

Vera krupps Is one of god's typos.

It happens. In 8th grade I was Best friends with the flawless

Tiffany tilly, Miss junior texas.

Her mama had a hump The size of a mercedes air bag.

- brooky, you okay? - I'm fine.

Can I have a jelly bean?

Take two. Starve yourself tomorrow.

Brooke, my hat's Off to you, darlin'.

If I had to watch My ex playin' footsie,

I'd be revvin' up My chain saw.

Is seeing them together just Killing you? Guys,

I broke up with josh, remember?

And I think carmen's great.

And?

And...

I've already moved on myself.

Since we sat down?

Why, brooky mcqueen, You raw-boned, randy vixen!

You've set your sights On calvin krupps, haven't you?

Maybe.

Did you see him between classes? Was there a connection?

Relax. When something Newsworthy happens,

You'll get the first flash.

no. you'll get the first flash, miss pixie stick.

that man is mine.

back off now, before I snap you in half, bone butt.

I know I promised to stay away from your boys, brooky,

but he's hardly a boy.

thank you.

Where have you been?

Computer room. I figured I'd Do some last-minute hacking

Before calvin krupps Installs martial law.

Yeah. He may perceive my passion For blackmail... As negative.

Hey, at least You've got a passion.

All right. Check it out.

I downloaded our progress Reports from taft elementary.

Who cares? You might.

Miss bacon thought You were a genius.

Miss bacon? Our fifth-grade music teacher?

[clears throat]

"In all my years, I've Never come upon a student

"Who displays such Extraordinary gifts.

"I'm convinced that h.J. Could make a major contribution

To the world of music."

It's not possible. I mean...

I played the recorder Like a spaz.

Not according to b. Bacon.

She refers to your fingers As "Golden digits." page two.

You have question?

Many.

Master only have time For one. Speak up.

Uh, okay. Um, here's the thing.

It's just... I only Started playing recorder

Because it was cheaper Than the french horn...

This a question?

No. I... I mean, yeah.

Do you think miss bacon Was on to something?

Do you think I have musical genius?

Everybody has a talent.

Genius is the ability To follow this talent

Wherever it may lead.

It may take you to dark place.

You see mr. Ripley?

Oh, you should. Matt damon very good.

[toilet flushes]

Hey, carm.

H-hi.

What is that?

Nothing. It's just a drawing.

I was thinking about, um... I'm gonna get a tattoo.

Really? Can I see it?

Yeah.

Did josh draw this?

Yeah. It's just a doodle.

He had this idea for us To get matching... Oh.

This is really awkward for you.

What do you mean?

We already talked and I don't Wanna beat a dead horse...

Carmen, I'm really Happy for you. Okay?

Yeah.

But, um...

Can... Can I share One teeny piece of advice?

Skip the tattoo.

Why? Is it, like, super painful?

[sighs] Yes.

And getting it removed?

Even worse.

You got it removed? Why?

Well, why would I want One of josh's designs

Permanently carved Onto my body?

Relationships Don't last forever.

But he said This was the first...

I'm sure he did, and...

I'm sure he'll probably deny The fact that I ever got one.

But believe me, I've got the scars to prove it.

See ya.

[toilet flushes]

I've been looking for these.

Hey, aren't you gonna Wash your hands?

Y'all, do you think Brooky would mind

If we spent some quality Time with calvin k.?

All is fair in love and war.

However, as head of the Glamazons, I insist that

When in brooke's presence, We defer to her brookeness.

What does that mean?

It means she's got First dibs, desdemona.

Okay. On to more Important things, like...

How are we gonna score Some major detention?

I say we stir-fry bobbi glass.

That's a lotta oil.

We should show up To his tai chi class.

Oh, please. Get up at sunrise To do chinese aerobics?

That is so 20th century.

It could be fun. It relaxes you.

If we wanna go juvy, we're gonna Have to have another smackdown.

Can we keep it In the family this time?

I can't lose any more flesh to That li'l lily's ferret teeth.

Nic, can I talk To you a second?

Yeah. What's going on?

I just did The most terrible thing.

Hey, sam. Sam. Do you remember that recorder

You borrowed From me in fifth grade?

You were doing that skit On harriet tubman.

I said keep it.

Harriet tubman Played the recorder?

Yeah. I gave that To my cousin.

He turned it into A bike muffler.

You gave away my recorder? How could you do that?

She looked like She was gonna cry.

I don't know why I made that stuff up.

Is that not evil?

Not evil enough.

Mcqueen wants to steal her beau Back from what's-her-face.

I forget her name, But I like her.

She's a big fan Of my creamed corn.

- what else? - cheerleaders are Plannin' to rumble.

- who's the ringleader? - can't say.

I can't be ahead of the game If I don't know who's pitching.

It's probably nicole.

The boys? Waters are calm,

And I'm sensin' a storm.

Stay on it.

You bet.

[carmen] Lil?

Yeah.

Okay. You busy after school?

I promised sam I'd visit Cranky's record store.

It's her first day. She got the job?

Uh-huh. Is she excited?

No. Freaked. She's afraid she's gonna file

The soundtrack To chitty chitty bang bang In the salsa section.

What's up?

I got this weird Feeling that, um...

That brooke wants josh back.

Did she say that?

No. Uh, not in those words.

Are you sure you're not Wasting away in paranoiaville?

No.

I don't know... I... I just...

Mr. Krupps is right. If you put That kind of energy out there,

It's gonna come back at you.

Okay.

Why do I suddenly feel worse?

Because you're Letting brooke mcqueen

Become the master of your realm.

Knock it off.

Okay. Okay.

Yeah.

Hey. Could you Sign me up, too?

For tai chi?

I didn't think You'd be into this. Why?

I could use more Passion in my life.

[clears throat, giggles]

[knocking]

Who is it?

Carm, it's me. Harrison.

Come in.

Hey. You busy?

Please do not tell me That lily sent you here

To give me another lecture.

I cruised past paranoia, Like, two hours ago

And have crossed the border Into full-on psychotic.

Don't tell me It is all in my head,

Because... It's The only head I've got,

And it is screaming, "Brooke wants him back."

You gonna put me In a straitjacket?

You wanna Have me committed?

Is that what you Came here for?

For? For? For?

I came here To borrow your guitar.

What?

Oh.

May need some tuning.

Thanks.

When you look At me and josh together,

Are you Constantly thinking,

"What is he doing with her?"

No.

I mean, it seemed A little odd at first.

Because he's perfect, Can have any girl he wants?

I didn't say that. But you were thinkin' it.

Just like the entire school.

Nobody has the guts To say it out loud.

I heard nicole say it Right to your face.

Oh, yeah. Right.

[sighs]

Carm.

Hey. What's on Your mind, huh?

What would you wear To a tai chi class?

[screaming] You guys, stop it!

That's it, cherry!

Bring it on, nicole! Bring it on!

I actually have a minor In french literature.

Mostly soft-core stuff.

Mr. Krupps, come quick. Nicole's Knocking out mary cherry's teeth

With the eiffel tower!

Hurry!

Miss fresh, since you Weren't directly involved,

You don't have to stay.

I started it.

It's not necessary.

It is! soy un animal!

I kicked nicole In the kidney. Twice.

I suggest all three of you Join my tai chi class.

Ladies, I was hoping you'd Wear something loose-fitting.

That's going To restrict your movement.

Not the ones that count.

Before we begin,

I'd like to say A few words about yin and yang.

The tension between These two opposing forces

Is what gives something life.

Sorry.

The term "Tai chi" Means the "Ultimate."

It means improving,

Progressive toward The unlimited.

The human body

Can be pushed far beyond the Commonly conceived potential.

Let's start with Some basic moves.

Watch and follow.

I'm sorry.

Sorry.

Circulate the energy From the fingertips

Upward to the shoulders.

I'm sorry. It's just... It's when I-I stretch...

And that's why I bombed that french test.

You should go, carm.

Believe me, I wanted to.

I bought A kung fufu and everything.

Then he showed us This one move where we...

Josh. Are you And brooke really over?

What?

Why would you Ask me that, carmen?

I-I still think that she Thinks about you in that way.

Has she said Something to you?

No. It's just... I don't know. The way she looks at you.

You wouldn't Notice it, but...

I have.

Oh.

And it's Definitely kinda weird.

Well, first, I-I... I wanted to apologize

For disrupting Your tai chi class.

I-I guess I was acting Kind of immature.

And I really wanna use My positive energy.

But I just suck at meditating, And I was thinking

That if I found The right music, I could...

Music helps.

Right. Well, when I go To the record store,

I just get so overwhelmed...

I could give you a list.

That'd be great. That's great.

But you know What would be even better?

This friend I know, uh, is Singing at cranky's tonight,

And he's supposed to be amazing.

And I was thinking that Maybe if you came with me,

That you could help me Pick out some cds.

What time should we meet?

[gasps]

I have a date.

Thank you.

You have question? I do.

To be master of my realm,

This must be at proper level. I don't want him to squeak.

You're hurtin' my eyes.

Okay, is it just me,

Or do you Smell major disaster?

Or are you done Using me for the night?

Is this your idea of putting out Positive energy, brooke?

Making someone Unnecessarily jealous,

Preying on the insecurities Of a new relationship,

Drawing innocent bystanders Into your web of deceit?

Stop me when I hit Something that's positive.

I, um...

I-I-I-I have to go.

You know, brooke,

You might wanna try honesty.

It's lighter to carry around Than your karmic backpack.

Uh, audio cassette? No, thanks.

Uh, makes the perfect gift.

Emory, you can't Sell those in here.

Why not?

If you do, I will rip off your head.

Shh.

Shh.

Good show, captain.

Could you hear me? Unfortunately, yes.

Can I talk to you?

Yeah.

What is going on?

How could you do this to her? Do what?

Did you really think

Carmen wouldn't realize That song was about her?

What is the difference?

I never mentioned Her name. It's a song.

It's her life! It's a theme!

A story! A subject!

Lots of great art Comes from personal pain.

Then use yours.

Here. These are From carmen. A gift.

Lily.

What?

Forgetting about Carmen for a second...

What did you think of the song?

Who are you?

Carmen, are you okay?

[lily] Where did you go?

I took a walk.

I stopped at Mr. Clucks, and, um,

I wrote this letter.

When it dries, I want you To give it to harrison.

You wrote it on a place mat?

Want some tea?

I wanna disappear.

It's not nearly as heinous As you think. Josh...

Stop. Okay?

One of my best friends Just completely humiliated me.

You wanna tell me that Was all in my head, too? Hey.

I thought you were still Out with mr. Krupps.

I got home an hour ago.

Are you two Officially a thing now?

Lily, he just met me there To help me pick out some music.

For the wedding?

He's the vice principal, sam.

I'm not looking to become The story on dateline.

Besides, he's not my type.

Who is your type, brooke? I mean, besides josh.

Carmen, maybe it's time

You stop blabbing about your Personal life to your friends.

Do yourself a favor.

Buy a diary... With a lock.

It's hard to know Who my friends are these days.

Especially the ones who say that They are really happy for me.

I think harrison Skipped a verse.

'cause sometimes The rebound girl wins.

She doesn't always Roll over and give up

Without a fight.

Good luck.

You know, the harrison song Is available on cassette.

I can sell you all 20 At a substantial discount.

Why would I want all 20?

I assumed you and your valentine Would want them off the market.

What?

Isn't that Why she's so upset?

Personally, I think She should be honored.

Can you imagine if mona lisa Had that reaction?

Or anna karenina.

Michelle my belle.

Harrison. Can we talk To you for a second?

More reviews?

We didn't come here To critique.

This is from carmen.

Wow.

My first piece of hate mail.

According to Hootie and the blowfish,

This means I've officially made it.

She's really bummed, Harrison.

You are blowing This out of proportion.

That song could've been About a million people.

But it's not.

I am not going to apologize.

What should I be writing songs About, huh? Let's see.

Driver's ed? Locker mildew. Jock itch.

You just don't get it. I get it.

If this song was wrapped up In touchy-feely crap

And coming from dudley Do-krupps, it'd be the bomb.

You can't handle the fact That a guy our age

Might have an insight Into the human condition

And who also happens To be a damn good musician.

Who is feeding you this crap?

Emory dick?

Forgive me, harrison. I like you very much,

But you play that guitar Like someone with a wooden hand.

Sam,

You also think I'm talent-free?

Um...

I think that The subject is carmen.

You little creep.

Oh, another groupie.

That song was about me, Carmen, and brooke.

Who do you think you are? Back off.

You wanna get in touch With your inner nerd, Get the jeopardy! home game.

Gimme that. Let go!

Stop it!

Let go! That's carmen's guitar!

[crash]

Oh, no.

[krupps] Frankly, I am blown away that nothing

I have said these past few days Has hit home for you guys.

You tell me you wanna Be masters of your realm

And you both Act like slaves.

Can we skip this lotus talk And move on to the suspensions?

And what are you Gonna learn from that?

The last person you wanna spend Time alone with now is yourself.

You might have to deal with your Conscience once you find it.

Now, I want You to read this.

siddhartha by hermann hesse.

[josh] The whole book?

You will have plenty Of time during detention.

The story of a man in search Of his place in the world.

A journey that takes A lifetime, but he...

Takes the first step By being honest with himself.

- is there gonna be a test? - every day, mr. John.

For the rest of your life.

"From that hour

"Siddhartha ceased to fight against his destiny.

"There shone in his face the serenity of knowledge

"Of one who is no longer confronted

"With the conflict of desires, who has found salvation,

who is in harmony with the stream of life..."

You have question? Yes, master.

What do you do when your head

And your heart are living In different zip codes?

I mean, I'm With carmen, right?

And that's who's in my head, But then brooke walks in,

And I get this feeling in here.

That's not your heart. That's your stomach.

Oh. But you know What I'm saying, though.

- where do you live? - what?

I see carmen. I see brooke. I see no josh.

He lives somewhere Out there like the wind.

Everywhere and nowhere.

It was wild, carm.

The guys started fighting, Your guitar went flying,

And the next thing we knew, We were watching miss glass

Scrape vera off the floor With her spatula.

She gonna be okay? Yeah. I think so. But...

You might wanna pack Your own lunch for a while.

[door opens]

- hey. - hey. Hey.

I thought you had detention. I did.

Carmen, can we go Somewhere and talk?

[carmen] Don't worry About the guitar.

My brother bought it used.

It's not about the guitar.

You guys can talk here. I've got To get ready for work, anyway.

Okay.

Do you want some? The bag's kinda burnt,

But I can just Pick out the bad ones.

No. Carmen.

[sighs]

I think we need To cool off for a while.

Why?

It's just...

I think I'm confused, you know?

I love being with you, carmen,

But I just don't feel Like I'm completely with you.

If this is about that stupid Song, I did not say any of...

It has nothing To do with that. It's me.

I'm all over the place And I'm nowhere.

I just feel like I'm not being Honest with myself, carmen.

I can't figure out What I really want.

What? Or who?

Perfect. Perfect.

What's going on?

You won, brooke.

That's what's going on.

This princess just Turned back into a frog.

Carmen! I don't Wanna be with brooke.

Excuse me?

I just wanna be by myself.

What makes you think I wanna be with you?

I don't know. It's just a hunch.

I got all these Things in my head,

And I need To sort 'em out.

Carmen, you deserve To be with someone Who's clear and centered.

You both do.

I'm sorry. That person's just not me.

I'm sorry.

[snoring]

Psst.

I've got some bad news.

That file I hacked into, I didn't check the date.

That report from Miss bacon was from 1972.

"H.J." was a student Named harvey jacknow.

Evidently, harvey's genius Did pay off, though.

He now plays clarinet, Full-time,

At knott's berry farm.

Something I can do For you, mr. Dick?

Uh, no, sir. I was just leaving.

Uh, sweet dreams.

[knocking]

I'm not hungry.

That's okay.

You'll find it kind of hard To digest this, anyway.

What are you Listening to?

What do you want, harrison?

I, uh, wanted to return this.

I know it's not Exactly what I borrowed,

But I managed to get A deal on a new one.

You didn't have to.

It's from me and josh.

We both pitched in.

I don't know What to say, carmen.

I've done some pretty Asinine things in my life,

But this one deserves an award.

Can you forgive me?

I guess I borrowed your drama

Because I was scared To deal with my own.

At least, that's what Calvin krupps thinks.

I'm like one of those cheap Chocolate easter bunnies.

Tasteless On the outside,

Hollow on the inside.

Josh broke up with me.

What?

When did this happen?

Like, three weeks later Than I thought it would.

Oh, man.

Carmen, I'm really sorry.

Don't be. Maybe now I can get A decent night's sleep.

Living in constant fear Of being dumped

Can make a person really tired.

If it's any consolation, Carm, you don't need him.

You have the center that mr. Krupps is making us look for.

Oh. Whoopee.

That can be the subject Of your next song.

Only if you Write it with me.

No, thank you.

Come on. You can do The music... And the lyrics.

What are you gonna do?

Watch.

My music stinks.

Yeah. It really does.
