Revenge of the Nerds III: The Next Generation Page #8

Synopsis: The third movie in the Nerds series: The nerds are now in control of the university, as a result of Lewis Skolnick and the rest's actions in the two previous movies. A new generation of sportsmen arrive, however, determined on winning the school back. The principle, himself an ex-nerd fighter, helps them, and the nerds return to suppression. Harold Skolnick needs help from his uncle Lewis, the hero of the first two movies. Lewis, however, are not too proud of his nerd past, and won't reveal any of it, much less help his nephew.

- Of course you didn't.

- I can't believe they pulled this.

- Of course you can't.

You were right, Betty.

I was a fool.

Stan was duping me all along.

I'm gonna be ruined now.

Everything I've worked for my whole life

is gonna be destroyed.

No matter what happens,

we still have each other.

Betty.

[Clears Throat] Excuse me,

but as your attorney, I've got to know.

Did you do it?

I mean, it's cool if you did.

I'd have done it myself if I'd had the chance.

I'm just curious.

No, I didn't do it!

I'm innocent!

Of course you are.

[All] Adams college blew it!

Lewis didn't do it!

Adams college blew it!

Lewis didn't do it!

Adams college blew it!

Lewis didn't do it!

Adams college blew it!

Lewis didn't do it!

Adams college blew it!

Lewis didn't do it!

Adams college blew it!

Lewis didn't do it!

Adams college blew it!

Lewis didn't do it!

- [Knock On Door]

- [Beeps]

One second.

Come in.

Betty.

What are you doing here?

He thought you were

his friend, Stan.

Well, who has friends?

Everybody uses everybody else.

Nobody has friends.

Lewis does.

Oh, yeah, sure.

He had a lot of friends during the strike.

But where are they now?

You know he's innocent, Stan.

I want you to tell the truth

and get Lewis released.

You really love

this guy, don't you?

He means everything to me.

I'd do anything to save him.

Anything?

Is that what you want, Stan?

No.

I don't want it like that, Betty.

Believe it or not, I still

have a little pride left.

- [Woman] Come over here. Did you get that?

- [Crowd Chattering]

Mr. Dawson,

any more nose-picking...

and I'll hold you in contempt.

Your witness.

Thank you, Your Honor.

Mr. Gable...

how did you get your job?

I applied for the job, and I got it.

- Mm-hmm.

- Mm-hmm.

Were you qualified to be dean?

Sure. Yeah.

I arrested a lot of kids...

when I was with

the highway patrol...

did a lot of volunteer work with the police

athletic league-stufflike that.

Well, that certainly qualifies you...

to be the dean of a major college.

What was your

grade point average, Stan?

- I had a "C" average.

- "C"?

Was it not in fact a C-minus...

just this side

of the D-plus border?

Yeah!

I don't see what my grade point has to do

with this case.

Just answer the question,

Mr. Gable!

I agree with the witness,

Mr. Dawson.

I don't see what

his grade point has to do...

with that nerd

embezzling funds.

- [Spectators Murmuring]

- [Booger] Your Honor, I intend to prove...

that there were

shenanigans involved...

in the very appointment

of Stan Gable...

- as dean of Adams college.

- Overruled.

Dean Gable isn't

the one on trial here.

Your Honor, this line of questioning...

is the cornerstone

for my entire defense.

Overruled.

Well-Well, I call for a mistrial.

Clearly my client

can't get a fair trial...

in this anti-nerd atmosphere.

- Yeah!

- Overruled!

- Come on. Please, Your Honor?

- Any more outbursts, Mr. Dawson...

and I'll throw your whole damn gaggle

of nerds in jail for contempt!

- [Sighs]

- [Murmuring]

Yeah, right.

- [Clears Throat] Mr. Gable-

- Yes?

When did you learn...

of my client's alleged misuse

of Adams college funds?

- Just recently.

- Oh, well, wasn't that a coincidence?

That you should discover this...

at the very height of a nerd strike

led by Lewis Skolnick-

A strike which threatened

to topple...

your tower

of totalitarian tyranny!

Yeah!

- [Judge] Quiet!

- Thank you. Thank you.

- Thank you.

- Quiet!

Silence in my court!

Mr. Dawson, I'm warning you.

- I've had it with you.

- Psst!

Dad!

Who is this geek

in my courtroom?

- I thought you were on your honeymoon.

- Well, your stepmother and I...

have the rest of our lives

for honeymooning.

We want to be here to support you.

We're behind you 100%.

I'm really glad you're here.

I need all the help I can get.

- Well, son, I believe help's on the way.

- What do you mean?

Free Lewis! Nerd power!

- Lamar!

- Lewis!

Order! I demand order!

- [Laughing]

- So what are you doing?

Well, I live in Milan now.

I'm a model.

You know- strike a pose.

Oh, what is that?

- Wormser.

- What is a Wormser?

When a Tri-Lamb's in trouble,

I'm there.

[Nerdy Laugh]

You're so grown up.

- And so handsome.

- [Laughs]

- Are you married?

- Better.

I'm a gynecologist.

Your Honor, this is a mockery

of the judicial system!

- Silence!

- Banzai! Flee Rewis!

Takashi?

- [Laughing]

- [Nerdy Laughing]

U.N.

We're here, baby.

Power to the nerds! Yeah!

[Cheering]

Quiet! I've lost control.

- Lewis, good to see you.

- Oh, U.N., thank you for being here.

- Oh, this is so wonderful.

- I know. If only-

Gilbert!

Hi, Lewis.

Gilbert.

I can't believe you're here.

I thought you never wanted

to speak to me again.

I didn't.

But... I heard

you were a nerd again.

Forever this time.

- [Laughs]

- [Nerdy Laughing]

[Cheering]

- [Gavel Banging]

- Order!

Order!

- Your Honor-

- I demand order!

- Your Honor-

- What is it?

I'd like to make a statement.

Lewis Skolnick had no idea

what was going on.

Are you saying this nerd

is innocent?

- Yes.

- [Spectators Gasping]

Yes. The money was misappropriated

by Orrin Price.

- This is preposterous!

- You're worse than they are, Price!

Lewis, I'd like to be your friend.

Seeing you here with the rest of your

Tri-Lamb brothers and sisters-

Well, it makes me see

what real friendship is all about.

My whole life

I've hated your kind.

When really I-

I hated myself.

And as I sat last night

at the computer...

I realized that-

that I was a nerd.

Yeah. And that there's

a little bit of nerd in everyone.

I guess I was just afraid to face that part

of myself, but now I'm not.

I'm a nerd- trapped in a beautiful body,

but I'm a nerd nonetheless.

You're not a nerd!

You're an idiot!

Idiots are people too,

Orrin.

It's not how smart you are

or how good-looking you are...

or how much money

you make.

It's what's in your heart

that counts.

I'm sorry, Lewis.

I'm so sorry.

I just hope that one day you'll be able

to forgive me for what I've done to you.

I love you, Stan.

Oh, brother.

You guys want to be alone?

[All]

Shut up, Price!

I'd also like to point out...

that it was Orrin Price that planted

the marijuana in the Tri-Lamb house...

and that the Tri-Lambs are completely

innocent of all charges.

Whoo!

Bailiff, handcuff that man.

Oh, I'm gonna get even with you, Gable.

You can bet on it!

I'll get even with all you nerds!

[Laughing]

Does this mean I win?

Case dismissed.

[Laughing]

Booger!

[Man]

Greatjob. Greatjob. Greatjob.

[Malcolm]

Congratulations.

- Oh, man. [Sighs]

- Oh! Oh!

Stan, I am so proud of you.

Oh, it feels so great

to come out of the closet.

I have always had these feelings

ever since I was a little kid.

I always wanted to read

and get good grades...

but my parents, they just wanted me

to be popular and play sports.

Oh! You don't have

to pretend anymore.

- Yeah.
