Yeah, like a toilet, baby.

You're Miss Barrett?
And l'm Ella Friedenberg,
Guidance Counselor.
You'll receive a directive on it, of course,
but with new teachers
l like to warn them personally
to watch for latent maladjustments
and send them to me on alternate
Tuesdays for depth coverage.
Teachers only.
But l... l am a teacher.
Miss Barrett, do you realize
you're going up the down staircase?
l'm sorry, Dr. Bester...
Dr. Bester!
Dr. Bester,
what do l want with basketballs?
Hey, that's the teach
that we saw this morning.
Oh, that's right. Ain't she cute, man?
She's gotta be my teacher.
-Hope so, man.
-Please, she gotta be my teach.
Shades up there.
Windows down four inches from the top.
Mr. McHabe,
l could only find one piece of chalk.
-Our supplies are running low.
-On the first day?
Rubber bands, desk blotters, board erasers
and paper clips are expected next week.
We have blue pencils, no red.
You mean that l can have basketballs
but no chalk?
Well, what do you want
with basketballs, Miss Barrett?
They asked me to fill out this requisition.
Well, it was obviously meant
for the Phys. Ed. teacher.
Shades up there.
Windows down four inches from the top.
Mr. McHabe...
There he is.
Good morning, Mr. Barringer.
l'm Alice Blake.
l had you last term in English.
You mean you were in my class.
This is my friend, Carole Blanca.
She had you, too.
l would have said
your name was Carmelita.
l changed it over the summer.
We wish to express our gratitude
for the way you gave
so unstingily of yourself to us.
Well, l'm glad l taught you
to express yourself so... So well.
Mr. Barringer, l wanted to be in your class,
but they put me in Miss Barrett's.
And l don't even know Miss Barrett,
and l thought maybe l could switch.
Why would you want to switch?
Think of the poetic heritage
of the name ''Barrett.''
Remember, Alice,
it was a Miss Barrett who wrote,
''How do l love thee?
Let me count the ways.''
Now, someone once said
that first impressions...
Please don't block the doorway.
Please come in.
Hey, Lou, no wonder, she's a dame.
l got a dame for homeroom.
Why do l always get stuck with dames?
You want l should slug him, Teach?
Boys!
Please sit down. Yes, it is.
Please, sit down. Sit.
Take your seats, please. Everybody. Yes.
