S2: Looka her! She's a teacher?

S3: Who she?

T: My name is on the board.

S5: I can't read your writing.

T: You want me to alphabetize for you?

S6: Is this 304?

T: Yes. You're late.

S6: I'm not late. I'm absent.

S6: Ferone. You gonna send a letter home? Take away my lollipop? Lecture me? Spank me?

T: I don't allow anyone to talk to me like that.

S6: So you're lucky—you're a teacher!
