I'm Charlie Bartlett.

"And if there's one thing

I want you to walk away with tonight,

"it's that the sky is the limit.

"So, for those of you with troubles,

for those of you feeling scared,

"or confused or angry,

"remember, you are not alone."

And then they go nuts again.

(PEN SCRATCHlNG)

Charlie, how are you feeling

about your father these days?

Are you angry that he's gone?

-Gas prices.

-Excuse me?

I also worry a lot in class

about rising gas prices.

Charlie, I'm going to write you

a prescription for Ritalin,

and what I'd like you to do

is start taking the low dose

and if after a few days

you feel no side effects,

then I would like to see

you start taking a higher dose.

So you think I have ADD, or...

We won't know that until the Ritalin

helps this concentration problem.

You mean, if I take the medicine

and it helps me concentrate,

we'll know I have ADD?

That's the idea.

Welcome back, professor.

-F*** you.

-Yeah. F*** you.

Can anyone tell me why Mercury

has only one day per year?

HENRY:
Because Mercury is the only planet

that does not rotate on its axis.

Hello, Good morning,

The word of the day is "gratitude, "

"Gratitude:
The quality of being thankful,

"readiness to show appreciation for

and return kindness, "

As in, if you would all sit down

and shut up,

I am prepared to express my gratitude,

Thank you,

A lot on the agenda today,

Our superintendent, Mr, Sedgwick,

is paying us a visit,

so for my sake,

let's be on our best beha vior,

First off, the student lounge will be

closed Monday,

while we install security cameras,

(BOOlNG)

Yes,

How can you do that?

That's, like, invasion of privacy.

(STUDENTS SHOUTlNG AGREEMENT)

There's a liability issue,

and I'm afraid the board

has already passed the motion,

Anyway, I would now like

to give Mr, Sedgwick the floor

to discuss our cell phone policy,

But the student lounge is the only place

we can hang out without teachers.

Are there cameras in the teachers' lounge?

(ALL LAUGHlNG)

Hang out?

Okay, we've already moved on

to the cell phone policy,

There will be ample opportunity

to discuss that later, but right now,,,

This is total and absolute bullshit!

Come on.

(STUDENTS SHOUTlNG AGREEMENT)

Right, Right,

You know, you kids really need to

find appropriate ways

to express your ingratitude,

Mr, Sedgwick?

The,,,

GARDNER:
Come on, guys, it's nothing,

It's just a fire drill,

Proceed outside in an orderly fashion,

Let's not have a stampede,

They don't have much

respect for you, do they?

In case you haven't noticed,

they're not too fond of you, either.
