- Billings's voice: 40 thou.
- 45,
- and I get to see that big hog of yours.
- I'm on it.
(unzipping sound)
Billings's voice: Your hands
are so rough.
Okay, now let me see your vag.
(squishy sounds)
- (people groaning)
- Old Curt:
F***ing embarrassing.It's gross.
- (Billings moaning)
- Parpadelle's voice: We got a deal.
That's enough.
Yeah, it sure is.
You disgust me, Miss Parpadelle.
Me too.
But you should really get that checked out.
I mean, that sounds horrible.
That's no way to talk
to the chairwoman of the school board.
Oh, I don't think you are
in any position to tell us
what to do, Miss Parpadelle.
Here's what's gonna happen:
You're going back to the board.
You're gonna tell them
that we are headed
in the right direction
and as of tomorrow we will be
under new management.
You're in
way over your head, Tom.
- Shut up, Harper.
- Okay.
And the tape?
You do all that
and I'll destroy the tape.
I'll take the tape.
The failed negotiator
learns to negotiate.
Touching.
And I'm assuming
you'll want the principal job?
Actually, no,
not even if you doubled
my miserable excuse
for a salary.
No no, I think
we need someone
from the outside,
someone who is smart,
passionate,
and has just been waiting
for the chance
to stand up
and prove themselves,
someone like you,
Rebecca.
Me?
She's just some drug-addled...
agh! Agh!
Is that all?
And show us your vag.
(all groan)
Okay, maybe that's...
no, we don't need to do that at all.
And your butthole!
Tom:
We don't need to see that either.And your titties!
I'm so sorry.
I don't know what's happening.
We don't need to see any of that.
It's all inappropriate.
- We don't want to see...
- You have a deal, young man.
The school remains open.
(cheering)
Everybody shut up.
Good on you.
Are my eyes closed?
Are my eyes closed?
There are styrofoam peanuts in this.
Sh*t.
I think I'm ready for that beer now.
I think I'll buy it for you.
Come on, let's get out of here.
Radio announcer:
putting the handyback in handicapped.
And breaking word on the story
we told you about this morning:
A scandal is unfolding
at Geraldine Ferraro Elementary
involving millions of dollars
of embezzled district money.
Police raided Principal Harper Billings's
condo late this afternoon.
Students and faculty
were victorious
in their fight to save the school
from closure
and they celebrated with a dance
in the school cafeteria.
- One...
- Two...
Three!
(sighs)
Hey.
You were really great out there, Frankie.
I know,
but that's how you separate a man
from a second-grader, right?
I have no idea, but it turns me on.
Say it slower, girl.
Hello, Nurse Gretchen.
Hi, Mr. Abernathy.
May I have this dance?
Sure.
Oh, sh*t. F***, yes.
Oh. Oh, f*** me, yes.
I thought you'd be totally
creeped out by me now, so I wasn't sure.
Yeah, well, Turner,
you are intense,
but you've got a lot of heart
and your students really love you.
I also love my turtles.
I know.
I love my turtles so much.
Okay, why don't we slow it up a bit,
take it one step at a time?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
Whew.
Um...
Oh. Okay.
There.

# I was once a young man,
smart and patient #
# Went to work,
took an average vacation #
# Now I'm into booze and procrastination
'cause I'm in education #
# Look at me now,
barely paying my rent #
# Got 100 grand in gambling debt #
# Got a bottle of Jack
stashed in my desk #
# Yes, I'm in education #
# I'm an educator, baby,
# We're gonna watch "Big Lebowski"
today, kids #
# Suzie, shut the blinds #
# I take three months of vacation #
# Yeah, I'm in education #
# Well, I teach my kids
to avoid drugs #
# But I got a closet
full of nugs #
# Got arrested for giving
a young girls a hug #
# Yep, I'm in education #
# Been divorced twice
for sleeping around #
# I'm wanted in two other towns #
# Just had sex
in the teachers' lounge #
# Yep, I'm in education #
# I'm an educator, baby,
# I think we'll watch
"Three Amigos" #
# So, Suzie, shut the blinds #
# I'm completely underqualified #
# For this job I'm dead wrong #
# I phone in my lesson plan #
# And get drunk all summer long #
# Well, I organize field trips #
# To the beach #
# Sell kids cigarettes
for 25 each #
# They say, those who can't do well,
we teach #
# I said, yeah, I'm in education #
# Where every day I come in drunk #
# The kids' parents think
I'm a monk #
# If I took my own class
I'd probably flunk #
# Yep, I'm in education #
# Make 10 Gs a year,
I'm full of sorrow #
# My school's named after
Geraldine Ferraro #
# I know I owe you cash, kid,
I'll pay you tomorrow #
# I'm in education #
# I'm an educator, baby #
# We're gonna watch
"Animal House," kids #
# Suzie, shut the blinds #
# I phone in my lesson plan #
# And get three months of vacation #
# Yeah, I'm in education #
# Well, our principal takes himself
chocolate baths #
# Let's blow off science
for some arts and crafts #
# Got a 9 on my SATs,
but I teach math #
# I'm in education #
# The day goes faster
when I'm on speed #
# 28, and I can barely read #
# But I'll give your kids
what they need #
# 'Cause I'm in education #
# Well, I'm off
to the teachers' lounge #
# For some masturbation #
# Yeah, I'm in education... #
E-D-U-K-A-S-H-U-N,
or something like that
How many years
till my tenure?
What?
God damn it.
