Yeah.
Oh, Bert, you don't mind, do you.
Just for the looks of it
Can't tell who it might be.
Sure. Don't worry about it, Mort.
All right,
All right.
Who is it
Mort
Rachel.
Come on in.
Ahh, you got a present for Bert, huh
Mort, don't let my father know
I came here.
Well, the Reverend don't tell me
his business.
I don't see why I should tell him mine
Is Bert all right
Oh, of course he's...
The safest place in the world's in the jail.
Come on in. Come on.
Tell them you're sorry.
Tell them it was all a mistake.
Please te...
tell them if they let my body out of jail
I'd lock up my mind
Could you stand that, Rachel
at least we'd be together.
It wouldn't be the...
It wouldn't be the same.
Rachel, do you remember
those warm, dark nights down
by the riverbank,
just watching the water,
wondering about the... the
miracle of it,
wondering what the stars were for...
what's on the other side of the moon
There'd be no more of that, Rach.
No, we couldn't.
That would be in the locked-off part...
for both of us.
Well...
So, this is where the fate of learning
will be decided for the next 10,000 years.
O tempora, o mores.
Well, I see we have
both beauty and biology on our side.
Who are you
This your writing
Yes.
This is mine.
Hornbeck. E.K. Hornbeck,
Baltimore Herald.
I've been waiting to hear from you.
Read it.
My typewriter's been singing
a sweet, sad song about the
Hillsboro heretic...
B. Cates, latter-Day Dreyfus
want a bite
Oh, don't worry.
I'm not the serpent, little eva.
This isn't from the tree of knowledge.
Oh, no.
You won't find one growing
in "Heavenly Hillsboro. "
A few ignorance bushes, perhaps,
but no tree of knowledge.
Ask adam.
You make me sound like a martyr.
You could be.
Martyrs always have a point to prove,
and so do you,
but you haven't won your halo yet.
that won't come until they've tossed you
into the arena...
with the lion.
You mean Brady
I don't want Bert to be a martyr.
What are you trying to prove, anyway
Rach, I'm not trying to prove anything.
All I want to do is teach my students
that man just wasn't planted here
like a Geranium in a flowerpot
that life comes from a long miracle.
It just didn't take 7 days.
But it's against the law.
a schoolteacher's a public servant.
He should do what the law and
Has the accused anything
to say in his own defense
If not, I sentence you to life
as a public servant,
a silent butler in the service of
your school board.
Wastebaskets for ideas on sale
in the outer lobby.
I don't see anything funny in this,
Mr. Hornbeck.
Objection sustained.
