"The sun shines during the day."

Ms. Matthews will argue the affirmative.

Good morning, everybody.

You know why people
say that in the morning?

Paam!

Nailed it.

How can you possibly lose?

Like this.

First of all, let's understand
that day and night are

merely words invented by human beings

to communicate simple conceptual
constructs apropos of nothing.

Ooh!

Apropos.

Rawr.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Anyway, science tells us
that the sun is always shining

and what appears to be day and night
is merely our angle of proximity

at a particular time to
the Earth's revolution.

And, for extra credit,
there's no such thing as time.

Time!

Our debate topic therefore, is false.

The sun does not just shine during the
day, it also shines during the night,

just not on us.

I win.

How do you win?

Because I have high hopes.

Because when you believe passionately...

And our debate winner is Farkle Minkus!

I don't understand. I said what I believed.

How could that be wrong?

There's no wrong, Riley. But
there are rules to a debate.

Okay, who cares about the rules

when we know that the
sun shines during the day?

That's interesting, isn't it?

How often do we get so
lost in what we think,

that we refuse to listen to what
the other side has to say, huh?

You guys know why we
debate in history class?

History teaches us that most wars start

because we don't listen
to the other point of view.

I'm not trying to start a war.

I just think it's okay to feel
strongly about what you believe in.

Riley, it's not enough to go through life

without considering
the other point of view.

Oh, I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you.

The sun was in my ears.

- Riley.
- Cory.

Here we go.

I love this class so much.

Being passionate about what you
believe in is the only way to live.

I don't need your facts, and I
certainly don't need your points of view.

- Switch.
- Huh?

Switch sides.

Argue the other side. Farkle?

The sun shines during the day.

You know how I know?

Poom! Hey!

POOM is my acronym for "Polar
oscillation in orbital motion."

Is it hot in here?

It's hot in here, right? What's happening?

Farkle, what do you really believe?

The sun shines all the time.
When we see it, it's day.

So for us the sun shines during the day.

How do we know what you really believe
if you can switch sides that easily?

I'm not changing what I believe.

But a good debater needs to
be able to argue both sides.

Right. And as you continue to grow,

you'll find a benefit to understanding
the other side of an argument.

Because if you know what you're
up against, you'll be ready for it.

Oh, I don't think I'll need to be ready

to argue something as simple as
whether the sun is out or not.

Are people naturally good or evil?

Good.

All of you will argue good.

Only one of you will argue the other side.

Ms. Matthews...

You wouldn't dare.

You will make the case for evil.

(Bell rings)

Boy, you have killed us all.

Yes. Yes, I have.

Let's go.

How could people possibly be evil?

I don't know, man.

(Theme music playing)

Okay, I think it's best that
we do this a little at a time.

Why?

Close it.

You did great. Lollipop?

May I have a red one, please?

Okay, so I wasn't prepared.

But I'm glad you started out
with the worst thing possible.

You know what? You just
tell me when to stop. Okay?

Stop.

Heh! Heh! Heh!

Go.

Please tell me, that is
the worst thing possible.

Yep, it is. There's
nothing worse than that.

I don't want to live in a world like this!

Riley, you're wearing a wool sweater.

Aah!

Oh, get off!

It's looking at you.

Aah! Get it off of me!

That's the last time I
ever loan you anything!

Okay. What else ya got?

You know what? How 'bout we just start

with a small, simple, little
place like New York City.

Let's see what's happening
in our own backyard.

Hi, guys.

That's not nice.

Okay. Today's local item...
"No Day at the Beach."

What's that?

"New York City beaches
are overrun with trash.

"Bottles, cans, wrappers litter our beaches

"to the point where wildlife is endangered
and people no longer go barefoot."

But I like the sand between my toes.

Don't you hate it when people overreact?

You and me, the beach. How 'bout it?

- You mean this weekend?
- I mean now.

The beach needs us, Mommy.

We need to help clean up the trash.

How do you know about that?

I'm a world citizen.

Okay. You and me, the
beach, tomorrow morning.

Do you have any idea how much I love you?

Those are words. Raise my allowance.

(Laughing)

Come here, you world citizen.

So, how do you feel?

I feel transformed.

Evil's gooey tentacles
have squeezed my pure heart.

But I'll never believe
that people aren't good.

You know how I pass the newsstands

and the headlines are screaming
right at you in the face?

I look at the pretty magazines.

But do you ever look at the news?

Mm. I know what's trending.

I know what's up with what's up.

Hmm. So you look at the news every day?

Hmm, not every day, no.

Do you look at the news any day?

Hmm... not any day, no.

Okay.

How about we just look at
the headlines from today.

(Keyboard clacking)

Mm... This is now?

Right now.

(Keyboard clacks)

Where is this?

This is our world.

(Keyboard clacks)

Oh, my gosh.

Do you guys know what goes on out there?

Climate change, poverty, war?

- Yeah.
- This is the way that the world is?

We try to keep it from you.

You're all in on it?

- The Riley Committee.
- I pay dues.

- There are no dues...
- Quiet.

It's worth it anyway.
I think it's wonderful

to have somebody among us who
looks for the good in everything.

- Well, that's over.
- Why?

Because I've seen things.
I'm not Simple Riley anymore.

Riley, don't let reality change you.

Yeah, reality's only as
powerful as you let it be.

Sometimes you can create your own reality.

Right, me and Lucas in Hawaii?

Smackle,
inside-your-head voice.

Knowing things changes you.

I'm supposed to argue that
people are evil, and now I can.

I have started my research, and I
will continue down this dark journey

that I can only call, "Riley
Matthews: evil person."

(Snickering)

What, you guys don't think I could be bad?

Um, okay. Do the worst thing
that you can think of right now.

Hi, to everybody but you!

- I'm sorry.
- It's okay, Riley.

Guys, we're gonna be fine.

My cookie came.

Cookie day!

Everyone say it!

All: Cookie day.

What the... I hold in my hand
one Grandma Gandy cookie.

Now Grandma Gandy could
send me a whole batch,

but she doesn't 'cause then she knows
I wouldn't appreciate it as much.

Looks like she's right.

I mean, grandma says that
there's value in just one thing,

that you appreciate it more
because there's just one.

Maybe so, because when I look at this,
I think about her making it for me,

and her thinking about me the whole time.

That's a good thing she does, Riley.

Doesn't Grandma Gandy
seem like a good person?

My grandma's getting pretty old now.

This could be the last
cookie I'm ever gonna get.

- Riley!
- Are you kidding me?

Okay, that was bad.

Bad? What could she do worse than that?

This cookie is only okay.

(Whimpers)

I'm evil now.

Yeah, you're my new dark leader.

What's next? That heavy metal?

What's next is apologizing to Zay.

The evil don't apologize, Maya.

And now I have to tell you something,
and it's gonna shake you up real good.

Riley, your five evil minutes are up. Okay?

- Snap out of it.
- Maya...

there is part of me that liked it.

Seeing that look on everybody's face...

there was a part of me that liked it.

You shook?

I'm a little shook.

Riles, we all have that,
okay? That's how we're made.

We all have a little
angel and a little devil

that sit on our shoulders
and try to win us over.

- I have a devil?
- Even you.

She's wearing a red, sparkly halter top.

What's her name?

Sassy Haltertop.

Mine's Stabby McGee. We
should get 'em together.

Riley, apologize.

We came over to give you
the chance to apologize.

Came in through the front door
'cause I'm wearing a skirt.

Didn't know it was window day.

We know you feel awful about what you did.

Doesn't look like she feels awful.

Would you just say you're sorry?

- I can't.
- Why?

It wouldn't be honest.

- You ate my cookie, man!
- And I liked doing it, okay?

I've never done anything like that before

and I would never do
anything to hurt anybody,

but something red and
sparkly inside of me liked it.

Well, okay for you, then.

Riley, please apologize.

- I'm going through the front door...
- Yeah, skirt.

Yes. Skirt.

Maya, I don't get it.

I've seen headlines now. I know things now.

Why is this such a big deal?

Because...

Because you see that door?

When it's shut, it's shut.

I can pull on it as hard
as I can, it doesn't open.

But just the slightest crack...
throws the door wide open.

You opened the door, Riles.

And the first bad thing makes it
easier to do the next bad thing.

I think I already did the next bad thing.

What'd you do?

I didn't give Two Shoes
Louie a dollar today.

What?! You love Two Shoes Louie.

You give him a dollar whenever you see him.

You go, "Here you go, Two Shoes Louie."

And he goes, "Thanks, Bright Eyes.

Now I'm one dollar closer to getting
my new pair of matching shoes."

But, Maya, he asked for two dollars today.

And tomorrow is spaghetti and hot dog
day, and I want me some of that.

So you didn't give him anything?

No, Maya, an extra dollar wasn't
going to change anything, okay?

And besides, it's a scam.

- What?
- Yes, it's a scam, okay?

We don't know what he does with that money.

Riley, it's possible he's saving
up for a new pair of shoes.

Or it's possible people are evil.

Okay, this is all just to prepare
you for the debate though, right?

Yes. And life.

Nice breakfast. You making good choices?

- Nope.
- Why not?

Because I'm inherently
evil and I'm out of control.

Well, pay attention, my evil darling,

because I have spent my
entire life meeting the world,

and I know something about it.

Riley, you get this cast
of characters in life, okay?

You get friends and you get family, and
they help you make it through the day.

But the world is a
character in your life, too.

And how it treats you has everything
to do with how you treat it.

It teaches me good lessons.

- That'll stop.
- Why?

People who are evil don't believe
those lessons anymore, Riley.

They stop thinking the world
has anything to teach them.

What if being evil is
more fun than being good?

What if being evil changes your
understanding of what fun is?

We got up at four o'clock!

Yup. Auggie and I had a little
beach adventure this morning.

What is all of this?

- I got it.
- Good. Tired. Four o'clock.

Why'd you get up so early, Bubba?

I wanted to help clean up all the trash.

Are you off your rocker?

No, I am on my rocker, Riley.

Did you know that there's
so much trash at the beach

that people can't even
go barefoot in the sand

because they might step on something bad?

Well, how much did you pick up?

I cleaned up a little area.

What good is that going to do?

I found out that you can't
clean up the whole beach, man.

But I did my part.

Auggie, do you really think
that what you did means anything?

Riley!

Mom, did we waste our time?

No. We didn't.

There's a story that I know.

Sometimes starfish wash up on the
beach, miles and miles of starfish.

And the sun rises and it dries
them out and then they die.

So a little boy picks one up, and
he throws it back into the water.

And someone standing there says,
"What do you think that's gonna do?

"There's too many of them to pick up.

Do you really think you made a difference?"

And the little boy says, "I
made a difference to that one."

So... I did good?

So you did very good.

So, what did you find out?

Are people good, or evil, or what?

We miss Riley.

That's your opening statement?

Yes, and it's genius.

Why is that?

Because the change in Riley's behavior
has changed the world we live in.

And if we didn't notice
the change, it would mean

we are not possessed of a natural goodness
that helps us recognize it in others.

I was gonna say that.

Zay, what have you found out?

I noticed she ate my cookie.

Do you forgive her for that?

No.

And do you not forgive her
because you're an evil person?

No. I do not forgive her because I'm a
good person who lost a good cookie.

Well, do you think you
could ever forgive her?

It's possible I might forgive her in time.

Why do you think that is?

'Cause I was raised right.

I don't know who raised her.

Okay. Why do you think
you might forgive her?

Because I know what she
did isn't who she is.

Sometimes good people do bad things.

Thank you.

So, can I hear from the other side?

This is a world of poverty,
hunger, and climate change.

And we know it, and we tolerate
it, and we have not changed it.

So if the world creates
opportunities for us

to do something good or
something evil every day,

and that world is full of
poverty, hunger, and war...

then doesn't the state of
the world answer the question?

Doesn't it prove that the world is evil?

That we are evil?

You win, Riley.

Oh, I didn't want to.

Excellent debate, Ms. Matthews.

It was, Riley. You beat us.

So, that's it? People are evil?

Well, let's find out.

Switch sides.

This is a world where children wake up
at 4:00 in the morning to save starfish

because something in them knows
that it's the right thing to do.

Why do we lose that? Where does that go?

We are born with the choice
of good or evil inside of us

and as much fun as it was
yesterday to do something bad,

now it's today, and I know that
doing a bad thing isn't fun at all.

She feels bad, man.

I don't care. I want my cookie back.

Zay, I feel terrible.

But I know that you're going to forgive me.

I know that you're a good person.

(Scoffs) Possibly. In
time. In a thousand years.

Now. I am asking for you forgiveness now.

No.

So I wrote this cookie song.

I forgive you!

Please, really forgive me.

Ugh, why?

There are two voices in us.

Both sides know how to present their point.

Which voice wins?

That is the only debate that matters.

That's the only reason the sun
shines in the middle of the night.

There is good and there is evil.

I found that if you choose good,

the world is more than
willing to help you out.

Zay, this is the fault of Sassy Haltertop.

She sits on my shoulder and
she told me to do a bad thing.

Yeah, I think everyone has
that, but why did you listen?

Because I never did before.

There are two sides. You consider
both, and you decide who you are.

Look, Riley, I know who
sits on your other shoulder,

and Sassy Haltertop doesn't
stand a chance against you.

So, you forgive me?

Yes, I do.

Because I know who you really are.

So I forgive you right now.

Thank you.

Let go, woman!

Lucas!

You gotta sing, man.

Two Shoes Louie.

Maya, Papaya! Bright Eyes!

Hi. I'm really sorry that I didn't
give you the two dollars the other day.

But I brought you spaghetti and hot dogs.

I love spaghetti and hot dogs.

Listen, Bright Eyes, I asked you
for two dollars because I was only

two dollars away from being able to
afford a pair of matching shoes.

- You were?
- Yeah.

And I wanted it to be
you that gave it to me.

But it wasn't you. It was
somebody that I didn't know,

whose eyes didn't shine at all...

who didn't even look at me.

But you're still wearing
your same different shoes.

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

So, uh, would you take this two dollars?

Oh, come on, take it. Come on.

(Chuckling) Here.

Nice seeing you. You too, Papaya.

Bright Eyes!

Do you have two dollars?

Hmm. Well, I believe I do.

I wanted it to be you.

You're a good man, Two Shoes Louie.

I'm trying every day.

Me too.

Me too.
