sign of defeat."

Pretty funny, isn't it, Tiff?

Almost as funny as those wedges.

What are you trying

to do with those things?

- Kill a family of rats?

- Don't you dare.

One must always dare, darling.

Or else we'd all end up

looking like you.

Well, this has been fun.

We should do it

again sometime, okay?

Kisses.

I know I just signed

my own death warrant.

But sometimes, you just

gotta dress a b*tch down.

What is it this time, Bloom?

I am being

practically terrorized out there

and you won't lift

a fetal pig's brow

to stop it.

Is someone teasing you?

Yes, uh, Bernie, Bib

Tiffany, Lynnette Franz

all day, every day.

Aren't you being

overly dramatic?

Normally, I would take

that as a compliment

but, no, I'm not, look at this.

Mr. Reamer.

You have to transfer me

out of that class.

Nothing I can do.

So, you're just gonna

sit there and watch

like a good German?

If Mr. Reamer won't

transfer me out of Biology

I'm gonna get myself

kicked out of Biology.

How?

It's Lindsay Lohan

that gets kicked out

of all those four-star

hotels and strip clubs,

not Taylor Swift.

The pussiest pimple gets popped.

Okay.

Billy, you're starting

to scare me.

What're you gonna do?

I'm gonna get popping.

What?

Weeks rolled by

as I slalomed through

the daily shitshow

of masticated spitballs.

Total war.

What're you lookin' at, f*ggot?

You, Bernard.

The f*ggot is clearly

looking at you.

If you losers

can't see..

The hash-fag.

Life is hard, Billy.

Yes, but it's beautiful too.

Don't you know

your queen?

Whipped

Should we slow down, Muv?

Heaving

Slow down?

Oh-ho-ho.

To slow down would be

a fatal mistake.

Don't you know

your queen?

Cracked

Peeling

Slop on that gunk.

Hide that desperation.

Goal?

To erase Billy Bloom completely.

Let someone else

take over for a while.

When Billy looked around

and saw all he created

he said..

"It is good."

It is very good.

No family is safe

When I sashay

That's messed up.

What are you doin'?

Hey hey hey hey

Hey hey hey hey

Hey hey hey hey

Don't you know

your queen?

Gleaming

Wrapped

in golden leaf

Don't you know me?

Rank

Ragged

Skin sewn on sheets

Are you happy, Billy?

Me?

I've never been happier.

...the barracks

It's hard to be happy

when you're

a chrysanthemum in a coal mine.

You know what I mean?

Into the fold

Marry

No family is safe

When I sashay

Hey! Move!

Listen, I've gotta

prepare you

for this world.

The world can be a cold,

hard, humorless place.

No! Move!

That's why..

You must always

let your fancy roam.

Yeah, I want you

to learn to take

a deep breath.

- And if life kicks you..

- Muv.

You just kick harder!

Higher!
