:28:00
Specifically...
Excuse me.

:28:05
- Can I help you?
- Yes. I have two months to live...

:28:08
and I would like to teach
before I die.

:28:17
I don't think you understand me,
Sparky.

:28:20
It's all yours.
You got it.

:28:26
Hello, class.
My name is Adrian Cronauer.

:28:30
I'd like to get to know
all of you by having you
write down your name, address...

:28:35
and your home and work phone on a
piece of paper and passing it forward.

:28:37
Sergeant Sloan our teacher.
You not supposed to be in here.

:28:40
I was sent here on very
strict orders from a colonel.

:28:43
First thing I'd like to know is,
what subject this is.

:28:47
- Is it English?
- Yes, it is.

:28:49
And how lucky for me.
Thank you very much for playing.

:28:52
Now, let's start off with the fact
that English is a fantastic language.

:28:56
Let's try a little phrase,
uh, I like to call...

:29:00
"My boyfriend's back
and there's gonna be trouble.
Hey-nah, hey-nah, my boyfriend's back."

:29:02
Can we try that one?
:29:05
Can we try "My boyfriend's back"?
Anybody?

:29:10
This is not for you.
:29:12
Why do I feel like
the Miracle Worker up here?

:29:17
- This is a nightmare.
- Uh, I don't know dick.

:29:20
Even saying that means
I don't know dick. L...

:29:22
I can't really teach English.
That's what Sergeant Sloan's going
to do when he comes back.

:29:26
I can only tell ya
about how you can talk on,
maybe, the real streets of America.

:29:31
Like, if you're walking on the streets
of New York and someone says, "Hey!

:29:34
Excuse me. I would like to buy
some cheese and some butter."

:29:38
No. No, come on.
:29:40
Basically, we talk, "Hey, man,
what's happening? Ahh, you look
hip today. Slip me some skin."

:29:45
Now, if someone in
America comes up and says, "Hey,
slip me some skin," don't be afraid.

:29:48
They're not a leper,
and they're not gonna go...

:29:50
No. It means, "Hey, baby,
slip me some skin." It's a greeting.

:29:53
It's like, "How're you doin'?
Nice to meet you. Slip me some skin."

:29:56
Now, here's how you do it.
You say, "Slip me some skin."
Put your hand out there.

:29:59
Then you go, "Yeah, there's some skin."
Now you do it to me.
