Stand and Deliver Page #4

There's no way around it.

I understand that,

but you have to bring him in.

Try the shortcut.

This is easy. Baby stuff for Boy Scouts.

My mind don't work this way.

Tic-tac-toe. It's a piece of cake,

upside down. Watch for the green light.

I've been with you guys for two years!

Everyone knows I'm the dumbest!

I can't handle calculus!

They have a better chance

on the A.P. Test without me.

Don't laugh!

Laugh! You're breaking our hearts.

Don't do this.

He'll sacrifice himself to benefit the team.

Do you have the ganas!

I have the ganas.

- You want me to do it for you?

- Yes!

You're supposed to say no!

I'm going to have to get tough.

We'll have to work

right through Christmas break.

The counselor was just here

looking for you.

Something about cosmetology classes.

He says, there's three different levels.

One for boys, one for girls and one

for I don't know what. Go find out.

Kimo, listen. It's cool.

- My grandmother...

- Clock out.

Game's over. You lose.

You never listen to nobody, man!

Adis. Why don't you...

...send me some postcards?

Or call me on the phone, let me know...

...how you're doing? We love you.

Kimo Sabe this, cabrn!

Pancho, that guy has a bigger problem

than you.

Tic-tac-toe.

Simple.

No. She's a little sloppy

with her homework.

Dad, get off the phone so we can eat.

No, she's a top student.

You're father works 60 hours a week,

then volunteers to teach night school.

Merry Christmas to you, too.

Now he's visiting junior high schools

in his spare time.

Corn and potatoes?

What happened to the lomo montado

pica a lo macho?

Jaime, I don't want you to teach

this holiday.

No teaching.

I don't understand this problem.

His own son has problems with math.

Give me that book.

- No books at the table.

- Go wash your hands.

I'll get it.

You see what I mean?

I've seen you do a lot

of underhanded tricks...

...but bringing your abuelita

to my house at Christmastime, come on.

I need calculus to take me

to a good career, Johnny.

Something smells good.

"On the first day of Christmas

A cholo came to me"

This is what's given.

We're looking for the area

in the first quadrant bounded by the curve.

What are the limits? Anybody.

0 to pi/2, sir.

Wrong. Lupe.

0 to pi/2?

What is wrong with you? This is review.

I checked my work twice.

Check it again.

I got the same answer as the gordita.

Don't call me gordita, pendejo.

It's 0 to pi/2, sir.

Yeah, I got the same thing.

You should know this!

What is wrong with you? This is review!

You act like a blind man in a dark room...

...looking for a black cat that isn't there!

I don't believe it. It's giving me a shot

from the back! No way!

Kimo finally blew a head gasket.

It's a pen.

It's a pencil.

It's a chair.

It's a light.

It's a window.

It's in the room, on the table.

It's 10:
00.

Un momento, por favor.

One moment, please.

Page 456, please.

Come on, Page 456.

Shut up and sit down.

We told him to take it easy.

It's our fault.

We sit back and watch him burn in.

It's "burn out. "

The man brought it on himself.

He was asking for trouble.

How can you say that?

You wanna-be cholo a**hole.

That's disgusting!

You want me? I'll kick your ass!

It's Molina!

Break it up! Pancho, just break it up.

Settle down.

- Later, dude.

- Settle down, Angel.

Mr. Escalante is okay.

He had a mild heart attack

and he's under observation.

Mr. Schloss is your substitute.

Out of respect to Mr. Escalante,

please give him your undivided attention.

I don't want any more trouble

from this room.

Pancho, you come with me.

Angel, let's go.

Tito, take your seat.

Mr. Molina has informed me that...

...you have your A.P. Calculus exam

in two weeks.

To be honest, I've never taught calculus.

I'm really a music teacher.

Are you mad at me, Mommy?

If I thought it would help, I would be angry.

The doctor says no stress.

No job-related activity for at least a month.

I want another doctor.

I have to go.

I left Fernando with a neighbor.

- I'll stay with Dad.

- No, go with your mother.

Don't forget to take out the trash.

What time do you get off work?

I'm still alive! I'm a hard-dying guy.

Shouldn't you be in the hospital?

No, I should be here with you.

Bulldogs!

Dog, dog, dog, dog.

Thank you for baby-sitting my canguros.

Have a good day.

How are you?

You should take it easy.

Go back to bed, man.

No, I should be here with you.

You already forgot to stand up!

Everybody!

No, against the wall like a snake! Hurry!

We've practiced for this all year.

You're the best!

You guys are the best!

This will be a piece of cake!

Upside down.

And...

Step by step.

You got it now. Open your eyes.

Y = In...

...What is the domain?

X - 1.

No! End of the line!

I'm gone two days and you forget.

What's the domain?

All real numbers greater than one. X 1.

I told you, you could do it. Okay!

Be sure each mark is black

and completely filled-in.

If you make an error...

...save time by crossing it out

instead of erasing.

It is not expected that you will

answer all multiple choice questions.

When you're told to begin,

open your booklet.

Tear out the green insert and start work.

You may begin.

Let's go!

I like to keep my pants dry.

The water is great! Come on!

Okay, fine!

This is so stupid!

I'm coming!

Orale, Grandpa!

We, being teachers...

...know the Advanced Placement Tests

are very difficult...

...especially in mathematics.

Less than two percent

of all high school seniors nationwide...

...even attempt

the Advanced Placement Calculus Test.

You've been drinking!

I am proud to announce...

...that no other high school

in Southern California...

...has more students passing...

...than Garfield High School.

No, he just walks like that.

Eighteen students took the test.

Eighteen passed.

We have an announcement to make.

We, the A.P. Calculus Class...

...would like to present this plaque

to our teacher...

...Jaime A. Escalante.

Yes, this is Guadalupe Escobar.

Is this some kind of joke?

Who is this?

For real?

What?

You're crazy, man.

"Tests are graded with the identity

of the student concealed.

"Only after irregularities were found

was it determined...

"... That all the students were

from Garfield High. " You all got this?

"Based upon the unusual agreement

of incorrect answers...

"... E.T.S. Must question the scores...

"... Of all students with

such unusual agreement. "

What does it mean in English?

They think we cheated because

we all had the same wrong answers.

We're too stupid

to know how to cheat correctly.

Let's sue them.

"The board doubts the grades are valid

because of these unusual circumstances. "

These people are human.

They can make mistakes.

Kimo, these people are calling us cheaters.

This is where we keep

all confidential material...

...S.A.T. And A.P. Tests included.

Only my secretary and I know

the combination.

This controversy is officially

between the E.T.S. And the students.
