:58:03
No problem.
:58:04
They're takin' a break,
that's all.
:58:08
In 1971, the United States
accumulated deficits...
:58:12
greater than the supply
of gold the country held.
:58:15
In that year, Richard Nixon...
:58:18
took the United States
off the gold standard.
:58:21
In doing so, he disrupted...
:58:26
the entire international
monetary system.
:58:29
What is that clicking noise?
:58:37
Are you a student
in this class?
:58:40
No.
:58:42
Who are you?
:58:44
I'm Marge Sweetwater...
:58:48
Mr. Thornton Melon's
private secretary.
:58:57
What are you doing here?
:59:00
I'm taking notes for Mr. Melon.
:59:07
He told you to write down
everything I say?
:59:12
Yes, he did.
:59:14
Good.
:59:18
Take this down.
:59:23
Mr. Melon,
no matter what you do...
:59:28
no matter what stunts
you pull...
:59:31
no matter how hard you try...
:59:34
you will never, ever
pass this course.
:59:42
Make sure he gets that.
:59:47
Yes, sir.
:59:49
I'll tell you what.
:59:50
It's for Barbay.
Make it an "A."
:59:53
Where's the lab report
on psychology?
:59:55
Here.
:59:58
It's too light.
It feels like a "C."
