Julianne?

Nicola?

Stacy?

Stuart?

Natalie?

- Go!

- But if I could just...

But nothing. I'm not interested.

Go and get a green slip. Go on.

- Morning Ms Hive.

- Mike.

Ms Bee.

I was after a late slip.

That's the third this week, Mike.

I'm sorry.

Right. Well, moving on...

Now, class. In the 17th century,

Shakespeare wrote a lot of famous plays.

Now here are some handouts.

I'd like you to read them. Pass them on.

Hand them out, and pass them on.

Now, 'Romeo and Juliet' is

considered to be one...

...of the most famous

love stories of all time.

Look at all that carrot and alfalfa

just going to waste!

- If you're not gonna eat it, can I have it?

- Sure thing.

Look at this.

This is Mum's way of making

me eat this crap.

And it only makes me wanna

eat more junk!

At least she's not like

Jenny Vrabovski's mum.

She gets a can of mixed beans every

day for lunch.

I'd be pretty depo if she was!

Hey, look. It's the new kid.

Why don't we ask him to come

and sit with us?

No. Not right now.

Let's just make it us.

Okay.

F***in' faggott!

Hola, amigo, cmo te va?

Hey man, how ya goin'?

Have you got 'The Peanut Butter Solution'?

No, I don't have 'The Peanut Butter

Solution'. Okay?

That's the same 'no' I gave you last week

and the week before then.

I don't have it, mate.

Now just skedaddle, will ya?

Yeah, right-O.

Hi Jeff. Have you got time to

help me look for some videos?

I'm sorry Ursula, I'm really

busy right now.

I'll get Mike to help you out though...

Mike?

Yes, Jeff?

Can you just help this

lady out, please?

- Do you see anything you like?

- I sure do!

You know, if you told me what you

were into, it might help.

Well, I like romance mixed with

a bit of action.

What do you like?

You keep looking. I'll be back.

I'll be waiting.

Okay class. Can everybody get their

books out, please?

Act I, Scene I...

Hi Mike. Nice to have you

with us!

William, you're gonna have to

share with someone...

...until you get your own copy.

In fact, Mike, can you share

with William?

Great. Thank you.

- Hey, I'm Mike.

- Yeah, I got that.

Oh, yeah.

When you're ready, Mike.

Hayley, could you please read from

where we left off yesterday.

Out loud?

Yeah. In fact William, can

you read please?

Same spot.

Top of page 46.

Alas, that love whose view is muffled still

Should, without eyes,

see pathways to his will!

Where shall we dine? O me!

What fray was here?

Yet tell me not, for I have heard it all.

Here's much to do with hate,

but more with love.

William, we're going to have

to leave it there. Thank you.

I prefer Will, Miss.

Will, it is! Okay, class...

...I want you to get into groups

of two and three.

Your assignment is 'Romeo and 'Juliet'.

But your own modern interpretation.

It's due at the end of semester,

and it'll go towards your final mark.

Well, what are you waiting for?

Get into your groups!

Hey, everyone else has a

partner, so...

- do you wanna work together?

- Yeah, guess so.

Cool.

This is great.

Can I ask you a question?

Yeah, sure. Ask me anything.

What do you wanna ask me?

- Do you like this school?

- Do I like this school?

Yeah, sure I like this school.

It's actually, you know, it's actually

a pretty good school.

Yeah, I dunno. It's not really

doin' it for me.

I'm not sure I like it at all, to be honest.

Yeah, I know what you mean. It is

a little shonky in a way.

But it's not that bad!

You know, I think that's the most

anyone's spoken to me all week!

Yeah, gets a bit like that around here.

But you'll get used to it.

You guys have a media room here?

No, not really. Why?

Ah, at my old school I did media,

short films and stuff.

Cool. Do you have a camera?

Yeah, it's a cheapo, but it

still does the job.

You know, we should make our

project into a film.

Really?

Yeah! That's something I've always

wanted to do. Make a film.

- Would you be cool with that?

- Yeah, I guess so.

- Cool. I'm excited!

- Yeah.

But what kind though?

The only kind that can be so bad,

but still be good.

- A horror movie?

- That's so grouse!

Yeah, it's with the new kid.

Ah, I'm so jealous. He's like the

hottest guy at school right now.

Nothing special, so...

don't get too excited.

- Hi.

- Hey.

- So, how's your week been?

- Yeah, not too bad.

Still tryin' to get my head round

a few things, but...

Waiting for a lift?

Yeah, from Dad, but he's always late.

Me too. Mum. It's late.

So, we should probably get

started on this film.

Yeah. I can't do anything tonight.

- Um, but tomorrow?

- Tomorrow, yeah, cool.

I'll give you my number.

- I'll give you a call tomorrow, then.

- Cool.

There's Dad. See you tomorrow.

See you.

When you finishing with all

this school?

You should be out there in the real world,

mate, making money like me. Good money.

Should I be pissing it away

like you as well?

Pissing it away! Don't you be

a f***ing smartarse.

Listen mate, I gotta drop some sh*t

off at the bridge,

and you're gonna give me a hand.

If that's alright.

And then later we'll go and see her...

...and it's gonna be in,

and it's gonna be out.

I'll be back in a minute.

Cherry, how is she today?

Will, my friend, I'm very well.

Did you bring me a sweet today?

Well, that's what I wanted

to talk to you about.

I couldn't get you a bag of snakes...

...so I got you a big snake instead!

You tricked me! You always do that!
