Miss Meadows Page #2

Synopsis: Prim schoolteacher Miss Meadows (Katie Holmes) is not entirely what she appears. Well-mannered, sweet, and caring, yes, but underneath the candy-sweet exterior hides the soul of a vigilante, taking it upon herself to right the wrongs in this cruel world by whatever means necessary. Things get complicated, however, when Miss Meadows gets romantically entangled with the town sheriff (James Badge Dale) and her steadfast moral compass is thrown off, begging the question: "Who is the real Miss Meadows and what is she hiding?"

as leaving a vehicle unoccupied.

But I was concerned

for the safety of this toad.

And there was no on-street parking.

Do you think if I kissed it,

it would turn into a prince?

Maybe.

Or it'll just be one lucky toad.

This is a '56 Metropolitan Nash?

Yeah, it reminds me of an old pair

of saddle shoes I once had.

Reminds me of my grandmother's

kitchen floor.

So clean you could eat dinner off it.

I prefer a table setting.

Right.

Can you... One... Don't move.

Do you think that's really true? That you

can make a difference in this world?

I think it's impossible not to try.

I feel the exact same way.

- What is it you do for a living?

- I teach kids.

- Oh, that's nice.

- My pleasure.

All right, so I think

I'm gonna let you off

- with a warning this time, Miss...

- Meadows.

- Meadows. That's a beautiful name.

- Thank you.

Can I ask where you're from?

"Can ask" is if you're physically able;

"may ask" is permission.

Toodle-oo, Sheriff.

C-Carry on.

I know it's hard but although

Mrs. Dodd has left this world

and is teaching in another,

we're never going to forget her, right?

And she's never going to forget

any one of you.

I can feel her spirit in this classroom

right now, especially if I close my eyes.

I see her.

She's wearing that blue dress.

She looks so pretty.

And she's smiling at all of you.

Do you see it?

- Yeah.

- Do you see her pretty smile?

Yeah.

See, we're starting to remember her.

If we do this every single day,

she'll always be with us.

- Okay?

- Yeah.

You're probably wondering

why I passed your cards back out?

I was thinking that we should paste them,

each one to its own balloon,

and then one day,

we're going to release them.

Yeah.

- You said she'd come back.

- I know, sweetheart.

I was wrong. Sometimes Miss Meadows...

Lie! You lied!

Heather. Excuse me, children.

Why don't you get started?

Heather, sweetheart.

Heather, sweetheart. Heather.

Come here, come here. Heather.

It's okay, sweetie. I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

All the bad people stay

and all the good ones die.

I hate the world. It's a terrible place.

I know.

Sometimes it is but not all the time.

And it's our responsibility...

to make it a better place.

Hey, Miss Meadows,

do you want to come to Happy Hour?

Hey, Katharine.

I don't see how Happy Hour

will make much of a difference...

- Bye, Miss Meadows. I like your outfit.

- Well, thank you. Have a good afternoon.

- Toodle-oo.

- Miss Meadows.

- May I?

- Sheriff.

An absolutely splendid edition

that is essential to all.

If this doesn't make you proper,

nothing will.

Thank you.

I've always wanted my own copy.
