hard drive, taking two days.
Before we get sidetracked
with viruses and TSR programs...
...yesterday we were talking
about e-mail.
So if you click the icon
at the bottom of your screen...
...you'll be able to
send and receive mail.
Go ahead and click the white envelope.
You've got mail.
Okay, someone's way ahead of me.
All right.
Double click "open/read. "
That person isn't as anonymous
as they think they are.
You've got mail.
That's bullshit!
Better step off, Mrs. H!
You can't f***ing prove anything!
And I know you can't afford
to lose this minimum-wage job of yours.
You know, you're right.
I can't afford to live in a big house
south of the boulevard like you do.
F*** you!
- Have you seen Stevie Littleton?
- No, haven't seen him.
You're not supposed to leave
your classroom unattended.
Sue me!
Benny Chacon's mother.
I told her Garcia had to leave early,
but she just sits there.
She's been saying
some pretty crazy things.
Mrs. Chacon?
I'm Ellen Henry. Benny's in my class.
I'm sorry, I don't understand.
What is she saying?
You heard about that body
they found in the L.A. River?
She says she thinks it's Benny.
You say he's been missing
approximately four weeks?
Four or five weeks.
She speak English?
No.
We get 80 to 90
bodies a month sometimes.
Gangbangers, illegals...
...floaters.
Nobody's even looking for them.
But if you ask me, this kid was dead
before he got his head caved in.
Overdose of morphine.
That's what it looks like to me.
On the phone you said that...
...the mother mentioned
some identifying marks.
Yes.
She said he had pockmarks on his chest
from a bad case of chicken pox...
...and a bar-code tattoo
on the back of his neck.
Did you find any rosary beads
on the body?
No.
Who is it?
It's me.
What's the matter?
I just want you to tell me one thing.
If you had any idea what I was thinking
lately, you'd think I was crazy.
You remember the body
that they found in the L.A. River?
It was Benny.
Who told you that?
Benny's mother identified the body.
You know Benny was no saint.
He hurt a lot of people.
Before we go shedding tears over him,
we should remember that.
In an odd sort of way
he may be better off.
I know we are.
Don't you feel safer with Benny gone?
Don't you think he deserved to...
You don't know anything...
...about Cesar's finger, do you?
Did you know...
...Cesar beats his mother?
He was here the night Jack died.
In the back.
What are you talking about?
Jack was provoked.
It was no accident. Cesar killed him.
What happened to Cesar was inevitable.
At some point, people have to take
responsibility for their actions.
I mean, he and Benny were takers.
They want what they want
when they want it.
And we can't expect the system
to protect us.
Where did you get these?
I admire you.
Like you, I used to think
the world was this great place...
...where everybody lived
by the same standard I did.
Then some kid with a nail...
...showed me I was living in his world.
A world where chaos rules, not order.
A world where righteousness
is not rewarded.
That's Cesar's world.
And if you're not willing
to play by his rules...
...then you're gonna
have to pay the price.
I don't know you.
I don't know who you are.
I don't know you!
You do know me. I'm a teacher.
Just like you.
I'm talking to you, Garfield.
I know what you did to Cesar.
I'm thinking maybe you did Benny too.
Is that possible?
Did you bash his skull in?
What did you f*** him up with?
You killed my friend!
Let me by.
I want an answer!
Leave me alone!
I'll kill you...
Schoolgirl b*tch!
What the f*** is your problem?
You're f***ing maestro!
What you talking about?
- Garfield killed Benny.
- You're crazy!
Don't turn your back
when I'm talking! Come here!
You think you better
than everybody else?
Because you ain't!
Shut up!
You forget all the good times we had?
We all had our time with you.
What the f***
you f***ing that n*gger for?
Keep me from doing
what I want with you?
F*** you! Stupid little b*tch!
You want some meat on a roll?
Come on!
Rita!
Garfield better watch his back!
What the f*** you gonna do?
F*** you, b*tch!
The death of Benito Chacon
is not gang-related.
That is something you heard on the news.
It is wrong. It is misinformation.
Wait a minute.
How can you be so sure? We're talking
about the safety of my kid.
Everyone, please just stay calm.
Thank you, Mrs. Ford.
The police at this point aren't
even sure if it's a murder case.
The reason we're meeting...
...is to quash all rumors
that may be floating around out there.
This is what we do know.
Benny Chacon ultimately died
of a drug overdose.
Technically, it was morphine,
which is what heroin breaks down into.
That's bullshit!
Benny was no junkie!
I know who did it. It ain't
the gangs you gotta be worrying about.
It's the teachers!
That's exactly the kind of rumor
we don't need.
It was Garfield!
Sit down!
Say one more word and you're suspended.
You're a f***ing murderer, Garfield!
Maybe I can't prove it, but
he f***ed up Cesar and killed Benny!
Victor, please.
It's the truth, ain't it, G?
Ask him.
Touch me and I'll sue your ass!
You're dead, G! You're f***ing dead!
Garfield, wait up, man!
Come on!
You're not gonna let that
punk get to you, are you?
He's a tweaker, a speed freak.
Don't let that punk scare you.
What do you want?
How can I help you?
How about you give me a ride home?
My old lady wouldn't give me
the car this morning. She's a b*tch.
You smell like beer.
I only had two.
I swear that's all I had.
Come on, give me a ride.
I live right over here off Chandler.
I'll buy you a drink.
Come on!
Get in!
What do you drink?
Scotch? Bourbon? Beer? Gin?
Hurry up, will you? I gotta pee.
I had a similar situation happen to me
about the time of the Night Stalker.
Whole city was scared shitless.
My old lady thought that the mailman was
the Stalker for a couple of weeks there.
But then some mental midget
from my 4th period...
...gets this idea. He starts this rumor
that I'm the Night Stalker.
I mean, even after
they caught that Ramirez.
I could still hear this guy saying,
"No, no, you got the wrong guy.
Childress is the stalker, ese. "
Idiots!
It's getting late. I better go.
Thanks for the soda.
Hold your horses, man!
Can't let you leave...
...without meeting the kids.
Come on. Come on back.
What we got here? Well, this gun...
...is from Czechoslovakia.
This is a CZ.22 automatic
10-round clip.
Glow-in-the-dark sights.
Ain't that a beauty?
All right.
I got a custom Smitty 9 milli...
...with extended grip.
Because as you know...
...them Smith & Wesson...
...they kick like a mother!
Here it is.
This is a beauty.
This is a Glock. 21.
The lightest handgun...
...in the world.
The barrel, firing pin are made out
of metal, but everything else on this...
...is made out of plastic.
