It's probably my only

shot at that, you know?

- Do you have a pen?

- Yeah.

LADY BIRD:

- Mom...

- We don't need to buy that.

It's only three dollars.

I'm having a hard week.

If you want to read it, we can

go down to the public library.

I want to read it in bed.

That's something that rich people do.

We are not rich people.

Stop!

Stop it! Stop it!

Listen, stop.

- Hey!

- Hi.

Come here often?

Excuse me?

I'm Lady Bird, we're gonna be in

the musical together.

Oh, yes, I remember you!

You were wearing that dress.

I just wanted to say what's up and

I'll see you in rehearsal.

Thanks, I am super excited.

You live in the neighborhood?

Nah, I'm from the wrong side of the

tracks.

What?

- Is that your family?

- Yeah.

Wow!

There are so many of you!

Irish-Catholic!

It's hard to find a girl...

to date that's not my cousin.

Well, okay. You're going to make a

great Franklin.

Oh thanks! I want my hair, his hair

to be curly, though.

Yeah!

Like Jim Morrison. Very '70s.

- Like Jim Morrison, exactly.

- Yeah.

Danny!

I gotta go!

Goodbye.

Who is Jim Morrison again?

He was in a rock band, moron,

The Doors.

I knew that.

This is with your employee

discount?

Yeah, it's already included.

Oh my God! Okay.

- Ma.

- Ma.

- Ma-Na.

- Ma-Na.

- Ma-Na-la.

Because it's not important to

be right, it's only important to be...

- Two.

Two.

Because today is done

See the pretty countryside.

To get our emotions going,

we're going to play

first one to cry wins.

Starting, now.

I'm playing too.

So is Miss Patty.

I'm sorry! I'm sorry.

I heard that before he became a

priest he was married

and he had a son

named Etienne...

who died at 17 of a drug overdose

which maybe was

a suicide but my mom says...

same difference if you are

that careless with your life.

Oh that's her!

Gotta go, bye guys!

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

Oh, I almost forgot. I brought you

these hot rollers.

For your Jim Morrison hair.

- Thank you so much.

- You're welcome.

You'll have to show me

how to use them.

It would be my pleasure.

They look like sperms.

Hey! I just remembered I had a

dream about you!

- Really! What happened?

- Yeah.

We were flying to Disneyland on a

giant carrot.

That's awesome!

I love Disneyland.

Yeah me too, I think it's kind of scary

but I also love it.

So pretty clear on applying the rules

of the exponents. You guys with me?

Don't leave me hanging.

Give me a nod?

That is good. Maybe even

a verbal confirmation?

Yes.

Thank you, that's what I like to hear that.

Alright, so, I am gonna be passing

back the graded quizzes.

I urge you to find the problems
