:32:00
I know, because I wrote it 20 years ago
when I was an undergraduate.

:32:04
Must be a hell of a paper.
:32:07
Yes, I thought it was pretty good.
:32:10
But that is not the point.
Plagiarism is simply not acceptable.

:32:15
I've given Barb an F on that assignment.
:32:17
If she wants to remain on the squad,
or in the school, for that matter...

:32:21
her next paper on Romeo and Juliet
had better be wholly original.

:32:24
I'll explain your position to Barb...
:32:26
and make sure she understands it,
explicitly.

:32:31
Well, good.
:32:33
Fine.
:32:37
Okay, what's the big deal?
Presidents don't write their speeches.

:32:40
When you're President, you can be
as lenient as you want to on plagiarism.

:32:44
But wait. This play has five acts.
:32:46
She can't expect me to read the whole thing.
:32:48
It's all written in ye olde
weird English anyway.

:32:51
- Hey, Barb.
- Hi, Scoot.

:32:53
Besides, people think being a cheerleader
is this nonstop party and everything...

:32:58
but, you know, they're so wrong.
:33:00
- Hey, Barb.
- Hi, Chase.

:33:02
Aside from all my games and my practices...
:33:04
they still expect me to maintain
this 2.0 average, and I can't do that.

:33:08
You need to manage your time better.
:33:09
Time? What time? I don't have any time.
:33:13
- Hey, Barb.
- Hi, Tim.

:33:15
- Tom.
- Shoot! Sorry. Tom.

:33:18
I really liked him, too.
:33:20
You got some admirers on this campus,
don't you?

:33:22
Don't be jealous. They're just silly boys.
:33:25
We can stop this charade
and run away together.

:33:28
You got a paper to write.
:33:29
I know. But if I write it myself,
it'll just be stupid.

:33:32
You don't know that
because you haven't tried.

:33:34
Cheating is a hell of a lot worse
than being stupid.

:33:37
Plagiarism is an academic crime.
It is punishable by academic death.

:33:43
What do you care anyway?
:33:44
I wanna see you stay alive, academically,
physically, and every other way.

:33:48
- You like me, don't you?
- No.
