Hey, you know what

a blow-job is?

It's when a girl

puts it in her mouth.

What does it feel like?

Pretty good. My girlfriend does

it whenever I want.

You have a girlfriend?

Don't tell Mom.

Why not?

Don't f***ing tell her!

I think I love you.

You love me?

Yeah.

Are you in love with me?

Yeah, is that bad?

I'm just not ready yet.

What do you mean

you're not ready?

I can't.

Well, when are you

going to be ready?

If you love me then

there's no rush.

People who love

each other have sex.

That's what happens.

I'm just not ready.

Well when are you

going to be ready?

I'm getting tired of waiting.

I just want you so bad,

is that wrong?

No.

Well then I don't see

what the problem is.

I heard it hurts.

It doesn't hurt.

For girls it does.

No it doesn't, it feels great!

How would you know?

I just do.

Will you just please tell me

when you're going to be ready?

I don't know.

Mom?

Yeah?

Can I have some money?

What do you need money for?

I don't know,

I could just really use some.

Well, you have a job, you

could use that money.

Yeah, well I could have enough

if I waited all summer but, I need it now.

Well, you should know,

as an adult if you...

spend money you don't have,

it puts you in a bad situation.

Please can I just have the money

and I'll pay you back as soon as I

get it from my work?

How much do you need?

Maybe, two hundred?

What the hell do you

need two hundred dollars for?

I want to get something

for my girlfriend.

Well I don't have

two hundred dollars.

So I can't give you

anything I don't have...

You can save the money,

then buy whatever it is this

thing you want with your own

money.

Mom?

Yeah?

Can I have

some money too?

No one's getting any money!

But I need some...

Okay, shut up! Eat your food.

Okay, seven basic

principles of the Constitution,

can anyone name one?

- Yes.

- Freedom of speech?

Freedom of speech, yes, but what

principle does that fall under?

Individual rights?

That's right,

individual rights.

Can someone

name another one?

There's one in particular that

I'm looking for- yes?

Separation of power?

There you go,

separation of power.

The reason I was looking for

this one

is because we just

covered this the other day.

Who can give me

a third basic principle?

Stephen, can you stay

for a minute, please?

Can you come over here?

Everyone else, don't forget

your homework for tomorrow.

Okay, first of all,

you're not in trouble.

But I just wanted to talk to you

for a second,

because I've noticed that

you've been drifting in class

and you seem

a little distracted,

is there something on your mind?

No.

Is everything ok?
