The Good Student Page #4

Synopsis: Ron Gibb is a widower, solitary and depressed, teaching history at an upstate New York high school. He has a small crush on Ally, a cheerleader, which is noticed by another student and the janitor. After Ally breaks up with her boyfriend, Ron drops her off at home, and a few minutes later she's kidnapped. The police are alternately suspicious of Ron and baffled because there's no ransom demand. Her father, a used car salesman, turns it into a sales event. Ron confronts Ally's dad over his business practices and offers his own reward for her return. Who has her, and why? And will Ron eventually notice a neighbor who's been trying to get his attention?

I'm curious about.

Smart fellow like you

stuck in a town like this.

It's almost like

you're hiding out or something.

Is that a question

or a statement?

You paid cash for that truck,

but your bank records show

no recent large withdrawals.

I don't like banks.

Karl prefers credit unions.

Where'd the money

come from, Gibb?

My savings.

That's a lot of savings.

It's insurance money.

Insurance money?

There was a car accident.

My wife died.

What does this have to do

with Ally Palmer?

You tell me.

Her father's

not pressing charges,

so you're free to go,

just not too far.

Yo, Mr. Gibb.

I heard about

what you did.

Awesome!

Mr. Palmer is

a major dick sometimes.

Guy hates my guts.

He was gonna give me cash

to stop dating Ally.

He said that?

Well, he offered me

a new transmission, actually.

Didn't you and Ally

break up?

Who told you that?

Ally.

Nah, we break up

all the time.

See, she's all about

the makeup sex.

The girl's an animal.

Good night, Brett.

Wait, hang on.

Do you think someone

actually took her?

It looks that way.

Hey, you okay?

You don't look so good.

You want a ride home?

Administration frowns on it.

Well, okay.

Hey, thanks for the talk,

Mr. Gibb.

Now I feel

a lot better.

Um, let's go around to the back.

Pervert.

Disgraceful.

Shame on you.

Ronnie...

we got to talk.

Nice.

Now, that is one

sweet little cupcake.

Hey.

I'm dying to know, Ronnie.

What flavor's her frosting?

Amber Jinxs?

Where is she?

Where's Amber?

Amber?

I know you're in here.

Freeze!

I want you all to hear this.

Why did you print

that picture?

You took something innocent

and turned it into pornography.

Kind of like

Young, Blonde, and Ready?

You should have come to me first

and given me a chance

to explain.

A man has a right

to defend himself.

You're a dirty old man,

Mr. Gibb.

Probably

a kidnapper too.

Girls, get to class now.

Amber, you too.

You're going

to pay for that.

Now.

This craziness,

it's disruptive.

Just tell me.

Am I fired?

The board is concerned

about the students.

Your presence

is upsetting everyone.

I have to suspend you,

give it some time

to pass.

Time to pass.

A girl is missing.

Is the board concerned

about that?

The police are doing

everything they can.

Unfortunately, you're the one

who looks the most suspicious,

and frankly,

I can understand why.

I admit...

I had a crush on her,

a completely inappropriate

but innocent crush.

What were you thinking?

It's been over three days

since local high school

cheerleader Ally Palmer

went missing.

Volunteers are coming out

in full force

in hopes of finding

any evidence

to bring this little girl home
