we're gonna have to hear about

these desperate characters of yours.

The same characters from

the last story that you brought in.

I mean, when are we gonna hear

something good for a change, something...

- What?

- ...with more levels.

More... I want more... I want more.

I'm so sorry, Mr. Herman Melville.

I wouldn't be caught dead

reading Melville.

Excuse me, Ackley?

Ackley, we could do without that.

Well, the whole function

of this creative writing class

is to learn and experience and to grow.

I... yeah, I...

We do not need to criticize

to the extent that you take it to.

- Oh...

- Jackie? What do you...

What were you feeling when you wrote

this particular passage to your story?

"The lonely girl in apartment 3F."

No, it was "The girl in apartment 3J".

But I like that.

"The lonely girl in apartment 3F."

But, she's afraid of being an old maid

and all her friends are wondering...

Okay, Jackie, thank you, thank you.

Does anybody else have

anything they'd like to read?

No?

- I would like to read...

- Yes, Ackley?

I would like to read

my piece for the class.

- Can you make it quick?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure, sure.

So, this is an ongoing...

this is part of a trilogy.

I'm... you speak of one and...

Okay, alright, class dismissed!

Frank!

Frank!

Frank! You listening to me?

I know you hear me.

I know you hear me.

There are certain things in life.

There are certain things that are

passed down in life, you know?

Like father and son.

In our case...

headmaster to a...

Orphan.

Like...

Like... the love of huntin'.

Yeah, killin'!

That was a good one. That was a good one.

Fishin'? Fishin'? Yeah, fishin' will work.

Yep, today, though,

I'm gonna do some new tradition.

From a long line of traditions

between a headmaster and orphan.

That's called sharing a bottle of bourbon.

It's good. Good for ya.

It's good, you know, I mean...

Take your mind off of things that...

You know, get your mind

off of things that...

bother ya.

About yourself and stuff.

Purify your soul!

Got one.

What do you think them priests be doing

in church with their wine? Drunk.

Want a taste?

Here, here, have a taste.

I said to... to have a taste.

Here...

go on.

There you go. Not too strong, huh?

Too strong?

Whoa, hey, that's enough there.

Come on, give it back.

Give it back, it's mine.

It's mine, give it back!

It's a gift.

It's a gift to you, it's mine.

Take your pants off.

Yes, may I help you?

I would like to take

your creative writing class.

Great.

Have a seat.

Thanks.

Is there any particular reason you'd like

to join my creative writing class?

No.

- Have you ever written anything before?

- No.

Nothing? No poetry or news articles?
