- I love you.

- I love you, too.

All right.

Can you turn off the light, babe?

Yeah.

And what do we make of Semyon?

The man Raskolnikov meets in the bar.

He's very pitiful.

Uh, he's got some, uh...

He's got some family problems.

And, uh, what happens to Raskolnikov?

He goes home after the bar,

right? And he gets a letter.

Let's pick the next big

thing that happened...

The Chicago Bulls. Michael Jordan.

Chris. May I have a word?

I just couldn't help but notice that

you were speaking a lot during class

and I have to say,

it was disrupting a learning environment.

Are you telling me to shut up?

Oh, I would never use such crude verbiage.

But I would ask that

you refrain from speaking

while class is in session

as a common courtesy

to your lecturer...

- and to your fellow classmates.

- Look.

Lucas, I talk when I wanna talk.

And if you got a problem with that,

- then maybe I should...

- Maybe I should jab my pen

through your windpipe, and staple

your tongue to the roof of your mouth.

Hey, is everything okay, fellas?

Everything's great, Mr. Butler.

Just wishing Chris good

luck on the game tonight.

Oh, yeah. Hey, good luck, Chris.

As we go in to the weekend...

Paige, not now.

I want you to keep in mind

what we talked about earlier, right?

But in the very next scene,

he's like, giving his money away.

He doesn't even have a lot of money, so...

And I want you to... I want

you to really appreciate

Dostoyevsky's structure 'cause

there's a symmetry to it.

And, uh...

Thanks. That's it for

today, but it is Friday.

I know you've been, uh, waiting to

handest in thou Othello papers.

Thank you.

Thanks, Paige. All right. Looks good.

All right, thanks, Jessie.

Becca, oh, very nice.

All right, thanks, Malcolm.

Thanks, guys. Thank you very much.

Chris, good job.

Whoa.

What... are you...

This isn't a paper, Lucas.

This is a dissertation.

Oh, my gosh.

I... I can't wait to read it.

I...

Thank you very much, Mr. Butler.

- See you in chess club?

- I'll see you there, buddy.

Check.

Checkmate.

Wow.

Heck of a game, guys.

That was just exceptional

playing. All around.

You know what? It's getting

late. Let's call it a night.

Can you guys put away the pieces,

put the tables back where they go.

Friday, Glendon High.

First seed, Alex. Second seed, Lucas.

- Third seed, Sammy.

- Excuse me, Mr. Butler.

Did you say I was second seed?

I did, buddy.

You're doing great.

You came up really fast.

- I'm proud of you.

- I'm seeded behind Alex,

even though I just defeated him?

W... uh,

Lucas, you're new to the team,

okay? Alex has more seniority.

And second seed's no joke.

Especially against Glendon.
