I mean...

why?

What is...

what is an "X"?

Like...

You don't get what the "X" is?

Perhaps if you spent less

time gabbing and a little

more time listening...

"Gabbing?"

I consider that word

a punch in the face, Ms. Bannet.

I beg your pardon, Pauline?

It's a word males use

to shoot us down.

To trivialize

our talking to each other.

You want to be part

of that sh*t, huh?

Pauline Oster, you will not

use that kind of language

in my class again.

Do you hear me?

Do you hear me?

I have had it up to here...

Up to my eyeballs

with your disrespect.

-What do you think you're doing?

-Teaching. What you should've done.

Paulie, please.

-It's okay.

-Out of my classroom!

You will go to Miss Vaughn's

and explain why you are not in my

class and suffer the consequences.

Do you hear me?

Am I not clear?

You have a nice day now, Eleanor.

-So what's your next class?

-Reading.

-Down the hall. On your right, okay?

-Yeah.

you'll be fine.

Bye.

That's it. You know you don't own

her. Victoria can speak for herself.

Do you understand?

-Do you understand?

-She wasn't thinking. She...

She wasn't saying anything.

-She was saying what she wanted to.

-She wasn't. She was just saying...

It is her class.

I will not have you terrorizing

my school. Do you hear?

Who wants to hear the letter

to my blood mother?

You wrote it?

Did they actually

give you her address?

No. But they said

they'd send it on to her.

And then if she's into it,

we can have like... a meeting.

I know.

That would be so

f***ing...

"Dear my real Mother,

Don't be scared.

It's totally okay

that you gave me up.

You were only a kid,

I totally understand.

Don't be scared of me.

I'm not scary.

I know you had a hard life.

And I have had a pretty good one.

Comfortable, you know,

if a little chilly.

Well, I imagine you living in some

apartment in Gerard and Parliament

selling your ass for a living.

And I just thought

I'd get in touch and we could

go for a beer sometime.

Your loving daughter,

Paulie.

P.S. Janet,

my fake mother, she smiles without

her eyes and her hands are cold."

I really hope she answers, P.

When she's old, I'm gonna

carry her around on my back.

You've never even met her?

Children's Aid took me

away from her in hospital.

She held me for one whole day.

Every minute.

That's what they told me.

I never write to my mom.

We always like talk on the phone.

Maybe that's why you

never say what you mean?

I can't say what I mean, P.

I mean, how could I ever

really say to her what I mean?

Even in a letter.

I mean like,

"Dear Mommy, I hate you.

The most recent reason being that

you went on about my teeth at Easter

in front of all your gross friends.
