Mr. Shorofsky?
Mr. Shorofsky:
Ms. Cooper?
Hannah:
I think I should accompany the chamber piece.
It's one of my favorites.
Mr. Shorofsky:
I don't fault your taste, Ms. Cooper.
However I have assigned you to play the solo.
Hannah:
But I really don't want to.

I wouldn't mind going to the Zoo.

I don't think he's going to be able
to get transportation for us everyday guys.
Jesse:
He's not coming.
Reggie:
Of course he is.
Why wouldn't he?
Jesse:
You don't see him do you?
Reggie:
So he's late. That's all.
Mr. Dyranforth:
I have a message from Mr. Seager

Maybe he's sick.
Mr. Dyrenforth:
Let me read it to you.
"Dear Bob,
I regret that personal matters
will prevent me from honoring
my committment at
The School of the Arts.
I will not be back.
My best to your fine students.
They deserve better.
Sincerely, P.L. Seager"

The Death of Mr. Buck.
Let's talk about it.
You haven't been working on it
Mr. Valesquez?
Jesse:
No.
Paul:
Good.
Won't have over-worked it.
Get up there.
Hope you don't mind Mr. Ware
- I'll be doing your role.
Valesquez -I'm waiting.
Jesse:
Can I ask you something first?
Paul:
No.
From the top.
Ready.
Good.
Go.
Jesse:
What are you doing here Ed?
Paul:
He was my father.
I had to come back.
Jesse:
I don't want you here.
I don't want you here!
I want to cry with him.
You can just get out of here.
Disappear. You're good at that.
Paul:
As soon as I heard - I came right away.
Jesse:
He asked for you all the time.
He died talking to you.
Only it was a one way conversation.
Paul:
I know. They told me.
I stopped at the cemetary
on the way to see him.
Jesse:
Oh yeah, what a reunion that must have been.
You broke him. You broke him and
you left me with all the pieces.
Paul:
Is that why you're angry? Because I left and you didn't?
I'm sorry I left it was a mistake.
Jesse:
It was a real cold move man.
Paul:
This time I'm staying. For now anyway.
Jesse:
For now?
Paul:
Take it or leave it.
Jesse:
Why should we?
Paul:
Coz I want to be here.
Jesse:
Why? Can't make it on the outside?
Paul:
Oh - I can make it on the outside.
But I like this better.
Jesse:
Oh right.
Paul:
Believe me. I'm not used to connecting.
But I want to try.
Jesse:
What's in it for us?
Paul:
I'm good. I'm damn good.
And I can make you better.
But you have to give back.
You have to give back as good as you get.
Deal?
Jesse:
Deal.
