Lean On Me

Fair eastside

by thy side we'll stand

and always praise thy name

and ever lend our hearts and hands

to help increase thy fame

the honor of old eastside high

brings forth our loyalty

so cheer for dear old eastside high

lead on to victory

man: As the tension mounts throughout the free world,

the ladies have a surprising 15-0 lead over the boys.

Now next question, bonus question for 20 points.

What is the origin of our civil rights?

The magna carta.

No, tom, no.

Ellen, take it.

English common law.

20-point bonus.

Boys lose 10 points for ringing the bell

without knowing the answer. It's a 10-point loss.

The magna carta was a document guaranteeing rights,

but the rights of whom? Uh, stacey.

The aristocracy.

10-point bonus for the girls.

The aristocracy vis-a-vis the king.

The people got their rights from the common well.

The common well. Hence... come on, who knows?

Uh... anthony.

Commonwealth?

10-point bonus for the boys.

Good, but, guys, watch out.

Girls have a 45-0 lead. You're not doing too well.

Next two. Come on. Quickly.

All right. Here we go.

Bonus question for 10 points.

Define the word "imbrue."

Aha. I'll spell it for you.

L-m-b-r-u-e. Imbrue.

Mr. Clark, could your class spare you for a minute?

Surely. Kids, take your seats. Quickly.

Come on. Quickly.

Take out your pencils. Write this down.

Imbrue-to taint, to stain.

The cancer of racism

imbrues our national character.

It stains the spirit,

taints the soul.

It is a blot,

a shameful, greasy spot

on the fabric of our national conscience.

Imbrue-to taint, to stain.

30 words tomorrow. Test.

What's the matter?

They're holding a meeting

of the union executive board.

Without us?

They didn't tell me, either.

I told you we couldn't trust them.

Keep it down.

Those no-good bastards sell us out-

out of a union we started?

Betray us like a bunch of judases?

They won't crucify me.

No, sir. I got the hammer and nails.

I won't be anybody's martyr, frank.

I'm sick and tired of spineless jellyfish.

Save it for the meeting.

Why, man? I got plenty.

I'm the rockefeller of outrage.

What the hell are you people doing?

We're having a meeting.

You're selling us out.

We cannot have an effective voice.

Our curriculum will be impotent

if we sell out every time they threaten us.

You want to talk, about this, call me in

we have to stick together.

What we have to do is pay our bills.

You want to carry picket signs.

We just want to work.

We're tired of the agitation,

the posturing of crazy-

how can you talk about posturing

when you're always bent over

kissing posteriors at the school board?

You want to step outside?

If you had any nerve at all,

you'd be fighting on my side.

Mr. Clark, i'm afraid that's a moot point.

We just found out that the board of education

will grant our salary increments

if we agree to accept their condition

that you be transferred to school 6,

and we agreed.

God bless you, man.

Pay your bills.

Joe.

They can go to hell.

Come on, joe.

This place deserves exactly what it gets.

I've got an election coming up,

and you hit me with this now?

The state report came from trenton just now.

And we... well, actually, they ranked the schools.

We were last in the state.

Oh, that's a crock.

They can't just take my schools away.

You're quite right.

That's what i thought.

But, well, no, see, now, actually, they can.

What?

The house passed a bill last week.

75% of high school students

must pass the minimum basic skills test,

or the state takes control by the end of the school year.

Well, how many passed last year?

About 38%.

38%?

What in god's name are they doing

down there at eastside?

They were your appointees, don.

Don't try pinning this on me.
