Teacher (Mr. Russell): You were doing so well, has there been any misunderstandings?

Luke: Wait, what?

Teacher (Mr. Russell): Here, -passes him his test-

Luke: -surprised- A D minus?

Teacher (Mr. Russell): That was my expression too, I'll give you a free retake next week if you want?

Luke: Sure -looking at test-

Teacher (Mr. Russell): Study harder. -walks away-

Luke: I don't understand, I did everything wrong on this test. I mean how is this possible?

Student (Jackson): Maybe, if you stopped crushing on Jess, man.

Luke: What? -turns around-

Student (Jackson): It's obvious, you have a major crush on her, dude.

Luke: You think that's whats messing up my grades.

Student (Jackson): Totally.

Teacher (Mr. Russell): -yells- Luke, quiet!

Luke: It's probably because I talk to you. -turns around-

Student (Jackson): That's offense, dude.

Teacher (Mrs. Rose): Michelle, read please.

Teacher (Mrs. Rose): Giving you an F+ for the semester.

Michelle: Wait! No! -runs to the teacher's desk-

Teacher (Mrs. Rose): Michelle, go back to your seat.

Michelle: Please, Mrs. Rose. I can't afford another F or I'll flunk! -on her knees-

Teacher (Mrs. Rose): Then, take out your book and read pg. 170 paragraph one.

Teacher (Mrs. Rose): Page 170, paragraph one.

Michelle: -reading- “What a lovely autumn it is, walking on the brightly colored colored streets” said Jane. -stops- This is really boring, Mrs.

Teacher (Mrs. Rose): Michelle, read!

Michelle: Ugh! Fine -reads- “Oh yes, miss Jane. It really is,” said the maid. -stops- “Oh yeah, I agree 'cause I'm boring and fat for sitting on this stupid window instead of going outside to see better for myself.”

Teacher (Mrs. Rose): Why Michelle, why?

Michelle: Well, it's pretty self explanatory.

Teacher (Mrs. Rose): -sighs and smiles- Oh, Michelle.

Michelle: -smiles-
