I'm not 100% sure of what Ms.
Baker wants, so that's why we really need to get down to it.
Are you kidding me? We have all weekend to figure it out! It's poor practice to leave work till the last minute.

We're just wasting time! I've had enough.
I'm leaving.

Okay, thank you, Percy.
Great stuff, everyone! All right, that's all the presentations, right? It's me and Sumo and Jeff, Ms.
Baker! Okay, sure.
Lights! Hey! No, no, no, the numbers are all wrong! The president will not be pleased! Ding-dong! Ding-dong! That's him now! Mr.
President, you're looking a little green today.
I don't even know what you're talking about! These numbers are terrible! No turtle hats this year! You hear that? The wolves are near.
Hurry, to bear force one! Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, these turtles are clearly guilty! Don't my turtles have a right to a fair trial? Mr.
President, there's been some speculation that you're a giant turtle.
How do you respond? Lies! All lies, I tell you! He's destroying the city! No, he is saving the city.
Mr.
President, you may be a giant turtle, but you're the greatest president we ever had.
Please, giant turtle, won't you accept this as a token of our love and admiration? Huh? Oh.
Guys, we pulled off the performance of a lifetime.
This is not what I was expecting at all! I know, I know.
Okay, I can explain.
It was just okay, it was all a really silly - misunderstanding.
Uh - "Misunderstanding"? Why, you may be apologizing for the most creative, refreshing example of interdisciplinary curriculum that I've seen in all my years! Congratulations.
Well done, Ms.
Baker.
Oh well, thank you.
I mean, yes, yeah.
Uh, I just wanted to e-encourage independent thinking and, yeah, uh, turtle hats.
Well, my turtle hat's off to everyone in this room.
This is the kind of stuff we need to implement in everyday learning.
- Expect a glowing review.
- Hmm.
Okay, great job, everyone! Okay, well, how about now we put our heads on our desks and take a little nap? Hmm?
