:13:00
Yes, I did.
:13:02
The bastard tells
the whole world before he tells you.

:13:05
He's not...
:13:08
Whatever.
:13:11
At least if they're eloping,
you won't have to go the wedding.

:13:14
Weddings are the worst.
:13:17
Me? I've had to go to,
like, five between my parents.

:13:21
Don't ask.
:13:25
Listen, M. T. Wasn't giving you
a hard time back there, was she?

:13:30
'M. T. '?
:13:31
Mrs. Toussaint and l...
we're on close terms.

:13:34
You get to know
your guidance counselor really well

:13:37
when you're clearly
in desperate need of guidance.

:13:40
See, I've got it
down to a science.

:13:43
You try the Jedi mind trick.
:13:47
What's that?
- You never saw Star Wars?

:13:50
No, I saw it. I guess I just
didn't memorize it like you did.

:13:54
Well, that's your loss, isn't it?
:13:56
Because the Jedi mind trick
is when you tell someone what to think,

:13:59
and they think it.
:14:00
For example, M. T. Says,
:14:03
'Macon, you're already in trouble,
and it's the first day of school.

:14:07
Is this any way
to start the new year? '

:14:10
Pretend you're me.
Now what do you say?

:14:12
Okay. I say...
:14:16
No. I wanna be someone else.
:14:19
Cute. No. You as me say...
:14:24
Mrs. T, you're gonna
let this one slide

:14:28
because it was
an honest mistake,

:14:30
it's only the first day of school,
:14:33
and the fire was put out
as quickly as it was started.

:14:37
You didn't really
start a fire, did you?

:14:42
The point is that you put
the words into somebody's mouth

:14:45
and they give them back
like they've come up with the idea.

:14:48
Like when I ask you
to go out this Friday night,

:14:50
you're gonna think you're
asking me because you're gonna say,

:14:53
'I would love to go out with you
:14:55
'because I know
we'll have a great time together.

:14:57
In fact, I've been hoping
you'd ask me all week. '
