The Good Student Page #2

and I am serious

this time!

You see what

you're doing to me?

You're making

a big mistake.

Miss Palmer?

Is everything all right?

I just lost my ride home.

Come on.

We were gonna get out

of this stupid town together.

I guess that was

just my crazy dream.

As you get older,

you'll find your dreams change.

How do you mean?

Well, we all make

grandiose plans--

great job, big money,

nice house.

The problem is that

what seems perfect one day

may not be so great

when we actually get it.

So we got to get what we want

to know it's not what we want?

Something like that.

But don't get me wrong.

Unexpected things can happen

for the better sometimes too.

Something amazing

might fall into your life

when you least expect it.

Can I ask you

a personal question?

Are you married?

Was.

Things...

didn't work out for us.

My mom died when I was five.

It sucks.

I'm sorry.

When you get to be my age,

you accept

that a lot of things suck.

They say life always

gets in the way of living.

I like that.

You know, you're a lot cooler

than I thought.

Well, thanks for the ride.

I guess

I'll see you tomorrow.

Ally, wait.

I really

shouldn't be doing this.

Your graded test.

Look, I-l tried

to study last night.

I really did, but--

Take a look.

An A?

My God.

I can't believe it!

You earned it.

Thank you!

My bad.

Probably shouldn't have

done that.

You rock, Mr. Gibb.

By the way,

love the truck.

Mad sexy.

Dad?

Morning.

Morning, Marge.

Beautiful day.

Certainly is.

Close the door, Ron.

These men are police.

They need to ask

a few questions.

Mr. Gibb,

name's Dick Moon.

That handsome devil there

is my partner Karl.

He's a lover,

not a talker.

Everything's gonna be fine, Ron.

Just take a seat.

Damn, you got some hot girls

in this school.

You want to tell me what you did

with Allyson Palmer?

What do you mean?

Seems she's disappeared.

What?

Several eyewitnesses say she

got into your truck yesterday.

Last time anyone saw her

at all...

except you,

of course.

She lost her ride,

and I gave her a lift home.

And then?

She got out of the car

and went into her house.

Is it customary for you

to chauffeur around

your students, sir?

The administration

does frown on it.

Sometimes...

a teacher...

needs to be a friend too.

But I'm just as concerned

for her safety as you are.

Thank you

for your time.

We'll be talking with you again

real soon.

Search and rescue

efforts have officially begun

as local high school

cheerleader

Ally Palmer is missing.

Father Phil Palmer

of Palmer Dodge

told police Ally never came home

after school.

Police are asking if anyone

has any information

about Ally's whereabouts
