You'd better start whipping your ass
around campus now...
-or you'll wind up going with Eric there.
-You can fly to the fair with him.
Okay, girls. Cut the crap and warm up.
Will anybody volunteer
to warm up with Eric?
Anyone?
Come on.
l'll do it.
Thank you, Milly.
Remember, he won't catch the ball
when you throw it to him.
-So just be gentle, but be persistent.
-Okay.
Thanks.
Okay, everybody.
Let's see some warm-ups!
Lauren, you take the ball out.
lt's your turn to serve.
Hi, Eric.
Want to catch the ball?
Eric?
Hello?
Okay. l'll roll it to you,
and you catch it, okay?
Eric...
you can do it.
You've just got to try.
''Your son refuses to join
in classroom activities.''
l'm not going to sing. No way!
''lf his behavior does not improve...
''we'll have to have a conference
with the principal.''
Louis, how can you do this?
This is the first week.
You sign it.
You can do Mom's signature great.
''PS:
Toy guns, knives, grenadesand flame throwers...
-''are not allowed on the school premises.''
-Don't show it to Mom.
Louis, could you get the dog?
Sure. Come on, Max. Come on, boy.
-l think l'm going to vacuum my room.
-Sounds good.
Yeah, l'll vacuum my room.
Mom will love it.
God.
Eric.
How'd you get in here?
Milly!
Milly, come quick.
The vacuum cleaner's eating my shirt!
Thanks.
What do you know about Eric?
Have you ever seen him
do anything weird?
-That is all l've ever seen him do.
-No, l mean really weird.
Dinky Patterson told me
something weird about him once.
Who's Dinky Patterson?
had your room.
Dinky used to get really annoyed
with Eric climbing outside his window.
So he took his BB gun,
stuffed the barrel with wet Kleenex...
-and started shooting at Eric.
-That's sweet.
He said he kept it up for about an hour.
But Eric wouldn't budge, so he gave up.
Here's the weird part.
The next day,
Dinky's looking around for his BB gun.
You know where he said he found it?
See that telephone pole?
Dinky said it was up there,
up on top of that box.
That, somehow, Eric put it there.
Of course,
Dinky was the biggest liar l ever knew.
-Probably.
What happened to Dinky?
Why did he move?
His dad got some hotshot job in Atlanta.
Took the whole family.
So, where's your dad?
He died.
What of?.
Cancer.
Everyone in my family dies of cancer.
My grandmother had stomach cancer.
She lost 300 pounds before she died.
Never looked better in her life.
What kind did your dad have?
-l don't know.
-They didn't tell you.
They never tell the kids.
-Did it take a long time?
-Can we drop the subject?
