later that month
With my junior midshipmen group.
Your old man had to have been
in the navy
To join the midshipmen,
So I was the only one
in my class going.
Surely I'd be the envy
of everyone,
Especially Rosalie Twerski.
Felix Funicello.
Felix Anthony Funicello,
the first.
I was ready.
Hey, ma.
Hey, honey.
Oh, hey, listen,
Tomorrow your father is headed
into town to the wholesaler's,
And I'm gonna take your sister
shopping after school.
So chino will be watching you.
Chino?
Yes, what's wrong
with chino?
He's a responsible adult figure.
You might as well hire oddjob
to babysit me.
Whatever was I thinking?
Dinner was always
an important part of the day.
by the bus station
on the day's dirt.
Christ, our lord,
amen.
- Amen.
- Amen.
So the minister's wife
comes in,
And she sees I'm trying
For his missionary work,
And she...
Felix, how was school today?
Next week, we're gonna have
a new teacher.
That's great.
Yeah, we're really excited.
Yeah?
Why's that?
Did you hear
what Agrippina said?
A lay teacher.
Yeah, I heard.
You know what that means, right?
'Cause all us guys
are gonna get laid.
Sal, maybe you can
take Felix outside
And finish the Christmas lights
after dinner.
Yeah, pop.
I was thinking of waiting
on that.
Sounds good.
So, uh...
Felix, what you said
about your teacher...
What about it?
Do you know what that word
you used means?
I clearly wouldn't
have said it if I did.
No.
See,
When you get to a certain age...
oh, man.
I had an uneasy
feeling pop
Was stirring the conversation
toward the birds and the bees.
And, hey, it's not that I didn't
need information on the subject,
enlighten me by talking about...
Toilet seats
and drinking fountains.
So...
sometimes you have a lot of
people taking a sip out of them.
And you don't...
want to touch
your lips on the metal.
You understand
what I'm talking about?
I think so.
Good.
Great talk, son.
Are you getting a drink
or what?
No.
The day our new
substitute teacher arrived,
I smelled her before I saw her...
Lily of the valley perfume,
A scent that would open a flood
of memories anytime
I smelled it for years to come,
A scent that...
I was definitely allergic to.
Bonjour.
Je m'appelle Marguerite Irene
Dubois Frechette.
But you can call me
Madame Frechette.
Madame Frechette
was unlike any teacher
I'd ever seen.
She was energetic, alive.
You could tell she was excited
By the way she would clasp
her hands together,
Causing all of her jewelry
to ring in unison.
Je viens Du Quebec, Canada.
