And I seriously think that the...

personal development

of children...

should come before the

school's reputation.

Hogwash.

The kids cannot be harmed by a

couple of pornographic pictures.

A couple of

pornographic pictures?

This school is filled with porn.

I know you don't think that we

should have that gymnasium.

It has nothing to do

with dismissing Ole.

Was it you or I that showed

around the municipality people?

I know exactly what I'm

doing, Mr. Karstensen.

Not by dismissing Ole.

We cannot let them tyrannize us.

We must set an example.

Imagine if all the kids just

went and pasted porno.. .

wherever they felt like it.

It was exactly not wherever.

It was first in the rooms,

which should and.. .

must remain the children's

private quarters.

And then in the bathroom.

After Mortensen had prohibited it,

don't forget that.

No, I agree with the headmaster.

We should not be too forgiving.

We should also think of

the other children.. .

who are not used to this stuff,

who come from good

Christian families.. .

who might feel that their

modesty is being impinged upon.

What crap!

In today's world, children are used

to seeing pictures of naked girls.

There are loads of them

all over the newspapers,

and if I recall, you yourself.

Mr. Justisen, read Extra Bladet.

Definitely not to look at

naked girls, Mr. Karstensen.

Mr. Justisen, no one is

saying that you sit.. .

and study the naked pictures.

It is just said that

children are used...

to seeing those kinds of pictures...

and don't feel that their

modesty is being impinged.

Anderson, what do you think?

I think that it was

wrong of the children.. .

especially after

having been warned.

I don't think that it

should go unpunished.

But could you not give

a firmer warning.. .

and then speak to the parents?

No, no, Andersen.

You know the parents

aren't any better.

We have to hold onto

our principles.

I implore that you understand

that we will have.. .

a better working

environment if we all agree.

Then let us agree on

not dismissing him.

Impossible.

Then there is nothing

we can do, but to vote.

Who votes to dismiss Ole?

Do you mean that I am

thrown out of the school?

Call it what you will.

School is almost over.

You should have thought

about that earlier.

We will make sure your

parents are advised tonight.

Kiss my ass, you idiot!

Who the hell do you think you are?

What do you stand for?

Do you know what

you voted yes to?

Do you know Ole?

Do you know about his

background at all?

Yes, yes, you can talk.

You are a permanent employee

with living quarters.

What the hell am I?

A stinking substitute with

a family to take care of.

It has nothing to do with that.

This concerns Ole.

- -I am aware of that!

You have to take a little

consideration, all right!

And even though a

warning had been issued,

it is evident that a

warning was not enough.

We had to therefore get

rid of the rotten apple,

which you would think is a little

harsh on your fellow student,

but it was the only thing to

do under the circumstances.

Yes, Aske, what is it?

I would like you to leave the room.

What do you want?

I would like you to leave

so that we can discuss.. .

the dismissal of Ole.

I do not agree with

you and I bet that.. .

there are several others here

who do not agree with you.

You must be crazy.

Leave?

Do you know who

you are talking to?

I am the headmaster here.

Leave?

I make the decisions.

You are not leaving then?

No.

By my God-given right, I won't.

Well, then I'll leave,

and all those who have.. .

the same opinion as me

can just follow me.

And those who dare to have

an opinion can also come.

Shouldn't we just turn

it into a brothel?

Piss off!

Can you remember when you were

making out in the forest?

Shut up.

Can't you just shut up?

Where are we going

to get the paint?

And the money?

I'll arrange that somehow.

What are you doing here?

I just thought that I should

tell you that I support.. .

your action and if there is

anything I can do to help,

please let me know.

Yes, please.

There is the door

right there...use it.

Shut up, Ole.

If you could get the others

to come over to our side.

That would be great.

Shoot the headmaster.

If you could get us some paint.

Regarding getting others

to come over to your side.

I would think it best that

you do that yourselves.

But I really think that

I can get Conradsen.. .

to find you some paint

and if you have time,

paint this room as well.

I think it would be a

great student lounge.

Yeah, make out room!

Haven't you ever drunk before?

Yes, but suddenly I just got dizzy.

The last I can remember is that

my dad got really upset with me.

Here is the hole.

Hold it.

Could you not

remember anything?

Yes, I remember when you

blew my belly button.

I ran into Rohin one day and

they said my dad was stupid.. .

to have some stupid Copenhagen

communists here at the school.

What happened then?

- -Then I left.

You think I want to

fight with that kind?

.' And we raise to our fatherland,.'

.' that lies behind the river..'

.' There the waves rush in

across with warm waters....'

.' over the old golden sands..'

.' So there we will

stay for all times,.'

.' and the lights

will always shine..'

Yes, it is nice to see that there

are some responsible ones.. .

who prefer education

instead of boyish tricks.

I can assure you that you are

the ones who have chosen.. .

the sensible alternative.

Where the hell are the thermoses?

I don't know.

Kirsten?

Isn't this still leisure night?

No, the headmaster has

prohibited me from serving.. .

coffee until you guys

go back to class again.

How primitive!

Does he think we will fall for that?

Yeah, well.. .

I did make you two thermoses, if

you guys can shut up about it.

Cool!

It will cost you a kiss.

- -Okay.

Can't I get one too?

Of course you can.

Don't tell anyone though.

- -Okay.

Who called?

Petersen from the municipality.

What did he want?

He wanted to know what was

going on at the school.

Is it really right to send Ole

home right before graduation?

It should be a festive day.

You know it's not just up to me.

It has to be brought up at

the next teacher's meeting.

It would be a catastrophe if the...

students lose respect

for the teachers.

Young people must live

with consequences,

so I intend to stand my

ground, in any case.

Where is Kim?

He's gone to bed.

- -Really?

.' Here we see one of

your small ones..'

.' Here, each, to collect..'

.' He gets a life that has a

little bit more meaning,.'

.' that lo v e is more than

Christian stories..'

.' One of them that shouts..'

.' One of the young losers..'

.' One of them that

doubts the truth..'

.' We hear you..'

Bo, where are you?

- -Right here.

.' Losers..'

.' Stand there and mope..'

.' Creates themselves

in the chaos..'

.' There is nothing to believe in..'

.' Losers..'

.' Shouts for hope..'

.' Gets kicked out of heaven..'
