The Math Ain't Mathing

1
Where is he?
He's not here.
Let's go.
Thank you.
What are you playing at?
Why haven't you put
something up on the wall?
I lost my book.
What book? What are
you talking about?
My Raisinette sketchbook. It,
it it has all my secrets in it,
and it's gone.
Could anything link
it to the Raisinettes?
Well, possibly my name,
the fact it's got "Raisinettes"
written in it, and
..a map to the bunker.
HE SCOFFS
You are unbelievably screwed.
HE GRUNTS
PHONE VIBRATES
What?
Who you talk to?!
Erm, sorry.
Good morning, Grandma.
Mm.
I need you to call Caleb.
Why? He's not been himself.
I think he's nervous about
staying with your mum,
and I don't want him to get
there and it all fall apart.
Did you just roll
your eyes at me?
I don't know what
you want me to do.
Call your little brother.
Er, with respect, no.
Oh, wha di ra!
Look, I told you and him
what was going to go down.
I I don't know what you
want me to do about this.
SHE ENDS CALL
Yeah.
Is everything OK?
Yeah.
Something always
calls me back ♪
Always.
Pulling the reins
The mirror's come
to show me things ♪
We said this was going
to be the last time.
Mm, well, we're
here now, aren't we?
Can we just be free? ♪
No.
I'd better get back before everyone
starts wondering where I've been.
I thought you checked
out with Rupert.
I have. It's his mum.
Imagine what she'd think
if she knew you were sleeping
with his beloved girlfriend.
That's a shitstorm
neither of us need.
Goodbye, Jaheim.
The feels I can't deny ♪
Ah!
The feels I can't
deny Deny, deny, deny
The feels I can't deny
Should I? Should I? Should I?
Can't stop. ♪
CHORAL SINGING
Be seated.
And next up, our algebra team
will be competing in this year's
algebra interschool competition.
Please, stand up.
WHISPERS: Leah, get up!
In the competition's
48-year history,
St Gilbert's has only won once.
So, I'm unsure why we've
decided to enter again.
Whatever the reason, it will be
the first competition St Gilbert's
has entered since
I've become head.
So, a loss is not an option.
What have you got me into? We
need to represent our school
You're our secret
weapon. It's coming home.
..so, we're looking for
supporters to go with our team.
It's a whole day off school.
MULTIPLE VOICES: I'll do it!
Man lost his Head Boy
ting and he's smiling?
Just feels like a weight
lifted off, innit?
Mm. Don't know if I should
feel like that, but
Mm, you know what?
Usually, I'm for black
excellence but, brother,
if it's causing you stress,
I vote black mediocrity.
You're an idiot.
Why you smiling so much, though?
Am I not allowed to smile?
Hold on.
Yeah, brother, I can see you
blushing through all that melanin.
Bro, what? What? Just
You got that new pumzy glow.
Oh, my gosh, this
guy! Come on, tell me.
None of your business.
Hey, yo! Who knows who
Marsham's dicking down?
OK! Tell me.
Yeah, I, I, I
I I did a thing
with Florence, innit?
Florence?! Sh!
What's wrong with you?!
Florence! This guy!
What's Beatrix saying, though?
Bro, that's over with.
She was with that Alex guy at
the Florence party. You saw.
I'm just saying, if you
are still feeling her,
this could get a bit messy.
Talking about messy, bro, haven't
you got your own mess to deal with?
Nah, mate.
Sorted it.
Bosh. Wait, that was you?
Mm.
Bro, aren't you worried
that she might find out?
Bruddah, you deal with your
madness, imma deal with mine.
HE EXHALES HARD, FLAPPING LIPS
I have recently
fallen victim Oh.
..to a hate crime Right.
..whereby my laptop was stolen,
so I was wondering if
I could use yours
Bliss, a day off school.
Huh? Mind you don't get
thumped in your face.
Shut up. Move, man.
I can't believe
they signed me up
for this flipping
algebra competition.
Wah-wah!
Algebra? Mm.
Mm.
Looks like you need
the extra credit.
Yeah, my grades have taken a
little bit of a hit recently,
nothing serious.
Mine aren't looking
too good, either.
Ah Oh, yay-yay-yay-yay-yay.
Yeah Pffftt!
How are you lot flopping
so hard, though?
Hey. My mind's just
been elsewhere.
Omar?
Uh, yeah, the same.
Listen, I just need to ramp these
grades up by the end of term,
and I'll be cool. BOY LAUGHS
Yeah, your turn, though.
I don't know why you're
laughing so much.
You're done. I'm done?
Yeah. Squarehead.
What? Mm! Erm
Bruddah, how you doing so well?
Ever since my dad let
me switch subjects,
I've been doing all right.
You're chatting! Yeah.
Hey, this guy might catch up to
you two by the end of the term.
Ha! Oh!
Ah!
Ugh! You have a
whole day off school,
and you decide to
stay behind and work?
Look, my scholarship is on the line,
so it's not like I have a choice.
I swear, you get
weirder by the day!
Well, you don't have masked
men coming after you.
Until my book magically appears,
I've got to stay on my toes.
The House Master and all your
mates are going on the trip.
I have a feeling they're
probably going to use
this opportune moment to
mind-fuck you senseless.
Have fun.
Wait! Wait, wait!
Yeah, hey, Miss Girl, come sit.
Hey! Devonye. What
are you doing here?
I came to support.
Oh, OK. Go, Leah!
Go, Leah, go! Go, Leah!
Go, Leah How did
you make that so fast?
So, I had the
meeting with Carol,
and it turns out the Spring
Ball is a definite no.
Bummer.
I won't be good until I figure
out who snitched us out to Carol.
Mm.
You were up early this morning.
Mm, morning run.
Mm? Is that what
we're calling it?
Come on, Flo, you've had that
new-dick glow for quite some time.
No, no, no, no new dick.
Just same old, slightly
larger than average Rupert.
Thought it might
be someone else.
Someone else like who?
Well Jaheim?
Why would you say that?
Well, I don't know, the two of you
have been getting quite close, babe.
Yeah, we had to. We
literally shared an office.
Sorry, that that was
a weird thing to say.
Yeah.
Why do you care, anyway?
Aren't you sleeping with Alex?
I mean, he's really hot,
but, my God, is he so boring!
The other day when he went down
on me, I fell straight asleep.
And, uh, Jaheim
didn't make you sleep?
Mm-mm.
I thought you were so over him.
No, I was.
But we had this
chat at your party.
He said some stuff and
..I think he still likes me.
And I still like him.
So, what are you
going to do about it?
Talk to him.
Do you think that's
a stupid idea?
If you still like him,
you should talk to him.
Oh!
Hi. There's not really
anywhere else to sit.
Sure.
Oh Yeah OK.
Drama.
Thought you'd be at the algebra
competition, supporting your friend.
Uh Erm Not to
mention a day off.
Yeah, er, since I've
switched courses,
I've been doing really well.
I'm just struggling to
find any decent books.
Yeah, the drama section
here is pretty shit.
LAUGHING: Yeah.
You know, I've got a load
of books like that at mine.
You're welcome to come round
and have a flick through,
see if any take your fancy.
Really? 'Course!
They're in a box somewhere.
I'll dig 'em out.
Thank you, Jude.
Glad I could help.
See you later. See you.
"Flick through mine"?
"See if any take your fancy"?
Mate. Mate!
Oh, you guys are morons.
Seriously, mate, this isn't
even us messing with you.
Teachers don't invite
students to their houses.
It's like an unwritten rule.
She's not a teacher.
Exactly, so let us at least prep
you, just in case something happens.
Nothing's going to happen! OK,
but how sure of that can you be?
100% sure.
You can't be 100% sure.
Graham's right. That's
like predicting the future.
You can say 99% at best.
Fine, fine. 99%.
But what about that 1%?
Like, we're not
saying initiate it.
No, don't initiate it, soft
cheeks. That's fucking dangerous.
But that 1%
Oh, that slim, sneaky,
unpredictable little
1% funilicious.
Yes! THEY LAUGH
You lot are such idiots.
OK, let's talk signs, OK?
She's going to give you signs.
Light touching - that's a sign.
Heavy eye contact -
that's also a sign.
"Would you like a coffee?"
Oh, my God, "Would you like a
coffee?" is a definite sign.
Er, but pace yourself.
Yeah, and make sure that you
let her make the first move.
That's important. Mm.
OK? We love you.
Come here.
INDISTINCT CHATTER
Clearly, we did
not get the memo.
You know state
schools get funding
from winning in
competitions like this?
Guys, you know if I don't win
this, I'm getting kicked out.
Like, please, just don't make
me feel worse than I already do.
Bro, Xiang, relax.
It's just an
algebra competition.
SHE LAUGHS
Sorry, did I miss the joke?
Oh, no.
You said, "It's just an
algebra competition."
It just tickled
me, that was all.
Right, there is
one round of heats.
Top four go first,
followed by the semis,
where there will be
several questions.
There has been some
issues with cheating,
so no bags in the
main auditorium.
And good luck.
And the finals? Presumptuous.
Finals will be one
singular question.
Mannybrook, welcome back!
Whoa!
Do you want to watch
where you're going?
Oh, they talk!
Hey, what, did you
privates come by horseback?
No, actually, we rode your mum.
Yeah.
Oh.
HE MUTTERS
Everyone hates the rich kids.
Maybe we shouldn't have come.
Listen, it's a comprehensive
- they're not the Crips.
And they're only picking on us
cos they think that rich kids
are easy prey but, deep down,
they're just boffins, just like you.
Us.
WHISPERS: Let's
put our bags down.
Let's go.
This is so not going to be
worth the day off school.
I thought you said you
and Beatrix were done.
"Dead", I believe, was
the correct phrase.
We are.
Well, apparently you said
something to her at my party
and you've gone from "dead to
her" to a solid fucking maybe.
Listen, seriously, I ain't talked
to Bea in that way for a time,
I don't know what you
Not according to her.
This is getting messy, Jaheim.
Five minutes remaining.
Get the answer wrong and
you will be eliminated.
MOUTHS: You're dead.
..which means the
coefficient is minus 11.
Wait, are you sure?
Yes, I'm sure.
Minus 11. Can we please
at least double-check?
Xiang, don't make me shove
this marker pen in your skull.
OK, OK, run!
The coefficient is minus 11.
What?!
Correct. Yes!
CHEERING
See? Didn't I tell
you we'd do well?
Yes, you did, but we
haven't won yet, Leah,
so maybe tone it
down a bit in there.
Oh, seems like your
team-mate's running scared.
What?
Xiang, where's Tommy? He went
to get some fresh air. Why?
I told you not to
leave him alone.
Put it down, come on.
Let's go, come on.
Tommy, Tommy, wait! Don't
let them get in your head!
Tommy, come back! Tommy, please!
Oh! Fuck that!
They're picking us off one by
one! No, no, no, it's calm.
It's OK, he was
dead weight anyway.
We can do it without him.
Newsflash - the rules
stipulate four players.
Shit!
OK, I'm going to go
find us a fourth player.
You two stick
together, OK? Yeah?
All right, in a minute.
The semifinals will
begin in five minutes.
That's five minutes
for the semifinals.
Hey, brudda. Pause
but I need your brain.
Bruddah, Abby's on a mission to
find out who got the ball cancelled.
I need to delete
the paper trail.
I need that MI5,
CIA-type deletion, yeah?
It's gone way too deep for
her to be finding out now.
Bruddah!
Look, I know you've got
your problems, yeah?
But I've got mine as well, yeah?
Cos, apparently, I've
fucked up now, too.
Hmm.
Florence came to me and
told me that Beatrix,
all of a sudden, has
feelings for me again.
I thought you two were
done. Yes, we are, bro!
But, but, but now she wants
to say she's got feelings.
Oh And, apparently,
I've even said something
at this flipping fair party that
I don't remember cos I was lit!
Oh, my goodness.
You and Florence ain't
no serious ting, right?
No. She don't want
Beatrix finding out.
She ain't going to say nuttin'.
Just chat to Beatrix, yeah?
Find out what happened
on that day at the party,
and just see wagwan.
But you're not getting my
man's heat, though, like.
If I had ever said something
to Beatrix and she replied
with something in
any of that vein,
I wouldn't have even
touched Florence.
This wouldn't be a thing.
Why would I do that?
Why would I throw everything
away I have with Bea?
It makes no sense.
Just calm, bro.
Just chat to the girl.
But deffo don't take too long,
cos Beatrix getting hella
cosy with that Alex bruddah.
See, this is what
I mean, though.
How can you do that and then come
to me and say you've got feelings?
Jaheim, I need your
help. Get No.
You don't even know what
I'm going to ask you.
I already know, and I
don't want any part of it.
Join the team. HE SIGHS
What? Tommy bailed.
We're a man down.
I beg you, just help
this black woman in need.
First of all, don't ever
play the black card on me.
That makes no sense. Second of
all, you dragged yourself into this
algebra ting, not me. Bro, I'm
just out here trying to survive.
Plus, algebra is a walk
in the park for you.
It's a walk in the
park for him as well.
Toby Don't make me
laugh in your face.
There you go.
Semifinals will begin shortly.
Please, take your places.
Bro, please, take the phone.
Who helped you with
your MIT application?
Me! Who got out of bed
for you, lied for you?
ECHOING: I was on some
espionage Take the phone.
..almost got myself kicked
out-type shit for you!
Ay-yah-yah-yah-yah! Please.
I'm not wearing that
dumb-arse T-shirt.
Hey, yo. Bro! Yes!
Let's go. Bro!
DOORBELL RINGS
Hey.
Hey. Hi. Hello.
Hi.
So, I've got out what I
think will be most useful,
and if you're not connecting
with anything, just let me know
and I can grab some more.
Are you going to
come in? Yeah.
I tend to just put one foot in
front of the other and then repeat.
THEY LAUGH
So, here are the ones
I think you'll like.
Oh, wow. Thank you.
Yeah, there's quite a lot.
Why don't you just have
a quick read of the backs
and see which ones you
want to take? Mm-hm.
Erm, would you like a drink?
I've got some pop in the fridge.
ECHOING: I was just
making myself a coffee.
Should we go to my room?
ECHOING STOPS
Femi.
Erm, yeah. Er, coffee
would be great.
OK. SHE CHUCKLES
Oh, my God, if this
doesn't end soon,
I'm going to throw myself off
the top of their science block.
SHE CHUCKLES Hear, hear.
If I'm still here next year, promise
me we won't volunteer for this.
What do you mean, "if"?
Shit.
What?
Erm
I won the sports bursary.
Wow.
Congratulations.
Wh why didn't you tell me?
I was just trying to
find the right time.
To be honest, Abs, I'm not even
sure that I'm going to take it.
Don't be a dumb bitch, no.
This is amazing.
Seriously, look
I'm so happy for you.
Come here.
I'm going to just pop out.
The smell of Lynx Africa in
here is really overwhelming.
Do you and Jaheim talk?
What about?
Stuff.
You're going to have
to be more specific.
Is he seeing someone?
I think he's into
girls. Don't be a prick.
Rupert, I'm busy.
Yeah, I'm asking you
a simple question.
What, so when I need your
help, you laugh in my face,
and when you need my
help, we're best friends?
HE SCOFFS
Yeah.
Well, here's me being a friend.
You still wondering
where your book went?
Who's the one kid that was jealous
of your shitty little society -
the one kid that didn't hand
in their bag at the door?
He said he didn't take it.
Tell me you don't want
to at least check.
Why?
So I can get caught?
See, that book and the Raisinettes
is the reason why I'm failing
and the reason why I'm
unbelievably miserable.
Frankly, I don't care
if he's got the book.
Sorry to bother you, Miss, erm,
I thought we weren't allowed
to bring bags in here.
Thank you. Right, er, excuse
me, sorry, no bags in the
It must be 0.215!
I'm sure of it.
Xiang I'm not done yet!
Come on, let's go.
Give it to me, Xiang!
Stop! Move! Ow!
The answer is 0.215.
Correct.
CHEERING Yes! Yes!
We're in the final!
Woo!
XIANG GROANS
Woo!
Ah! Ow!
Ah You need to
chill out, you know.
Come on. You know Xiang's slow.
Leah! Hey! You are
smashing it out there.
I had no idea you
liked algebra so much.
Oh, how's Xiang? He
looks pretty shook up.
What's up, Mabel?
It's Devonye.
It's just that she's a really
cool rebel girl, right,
and I wanted to impress her,
so I told her that I got arrested
for hijacking an oil tanker,
which I know she knows
is complete baloney,
but I'm too deep in the lie to
admit that it is complete baloney.
And now I don't know what to do
because I don't want her to think
that lying is my thing and
Oh, I'm just I'm just
I'm stuck and I need help!
I think you're fine.
It's very much a Devonye
thing as well, so
What do you mean?
Um, well this this is
really hard to say, but, um
Devonye's got a girlfriend.
Oh, yeah, Meagan. Her
name is Meagan and
Hold on. How do you
know about Meagan?
Dev told me she had a
girlfriend back home.
I actually met her on FaceTime
the other night. She's
Yeah, she's really cool.
And you're good with that?
What? With a SHE
GASPS SARCASTICALLY
..polyamorous relationship?
OK.
How do you know about Meagan?
Um Before I tell you,
you need to know that I was
just trying to protect you.
Was it you who
stole Dev's laptop?
Took yes. But steal?
Leah, what the fuck?!
What is wrong with you?!
Mabel, I feel like you're
focusing on the wrong thing here.
I literally thought the
girl was cheating on you.
You need to tell her.
And if you don't, I will.
OUT OF BREATH: Hi there.
Um Hello. Sorry.
I know we're not allowed
our bags, but my, um
..my asthma pump's in a black
leather bag with Oh, right.
..graffiti on it in there.
I was just wondering
Right, OK. It's my
asthma pump. Yeah.
Just a moment.
Thank you. Thanks.
That's the one. Thank you.
Thank you so much. I feel a
lot better. OK. Thank you.
Have a nice day.
Have you got
everything you need?
Uh, I'm I'm almost done.
I just need to finish my coffee.
OK.
Oh
Damn, girl!
Been looking all over for you.
Got me running around this
school like one kitty!
You OK?
Beatrix won the sports bursary.
I'm happy for her, but
I am officially out of options.
This is probably where I'm
going to end up, by the way.
In a school where they thought
a red tie would look good
with a green blazer.
Well if you are going to come to
a school like this, there's rules.
And you need to know
them, so listen up.
Rule number one - don't talk ill
of your colours and your uniform.
Cos them your colours now.
And when it pops off
with another school,
you're going to
have to rep them.
Rule number two -
definitely don't tell them
that your favourite
hobby is horse riding,
cos they're going to gut
you for it. SHE LAUGHS
Number three - first thing you
do when you get into the school,
approach the biggest
girl in the canteen.
And hit her over the head
with the dining tray.
No, whoa! Don't do that!
Befriend that bitch. Yeah?
Cos she's going to be the one that
protects your little lighty arse.
Thank you. What for?
Well, Dad not being around
..not being at the
school any more,
Spring Ball being cancelled.
It's just a party.
Yes, I know.
It's just, like,
the one final night with us
all together having fun and
..it meant a lot to me. Mm.
Anyway
..it's nice to know that
you're someone I
can always rely on.
OVER LOUDSPEAKER: The finals
will commence in five minutes
Leah. Come out, please.
Don't make me look like a pervert
lurking in the girls' bathroom.
TOILET FLUSHES
Who told you to come fast
yourself up in here anyways?
Well, the final's
about to start, so
How's Xiang doing?
He's, uh, telling everybody that
he's got swelling in the brain.
St Gilbert's has got
me fucked up, you know.
I'm starting to feel like
I'm just ruthless out here.
Well, have you got 50K
in your back pocket?
Look, feeling guilty about
competing against a state school
is not a luxury you
can afford right now.
Just wondering if
it's all worth it.
Let me tell you something, yeah?
Wherever we came from and all
that don't matter any more,
cos we walk in here
and these state school kids are
going to see that uniform on you,
and we're private school kids.
It's mad to say it,
but this is home.
Then why do I keep
on fucking it up
with everyone I'm
living in it with, like?
Xiang, Mabel
You're ruthless, yeah,
but that's cos you care.
Just talk to them.
They'll understand.
What, you do philosophy now?
The finals are about to
commence. Well, come on.
I hate to be the one to say it,
but let's smack up some
state school yutes.
After you.
Well, this is exciting.
But before we begin,
may I just say
that despite governmental
cuts to many state schools,
it's a real honour to still
be holding this competition.
Two of the three schools on
this stage are an example
of how talented teachers
with very little resources
can produce
schooling excellence.
And I, for one,
couldn't be prouder.
APPLAUSE
Oh, thank you so
much, thank you.
OK, competitors,
are you ready?
Audience, please remember,
no assisting and no noise.
And good luck.
Let the games begin.
Carry this one over here
We are screwed! None
of this makes sense!
Yes, it does. Well
I think it does.
You know, we just need to
get together, we can do this.
Just needs a bit of, um,
you know, black girl magic,
something like that. I
think I might have it.
Let me see.
Xiang. Wait! We need
to hurry up. Wait!
There are eight
possible solutions.
Plus or minus one.
Plus or minus i.
Plus or minus one over root
two, times one, plus i.
And plus or minus one over
root two, times one, minus i.
No, no, no. No.
Incorrect.
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
St Gilbert's and Severstone,
you have one minute 13
remaining on the clock,
and it's all yours
for the taking.
Xiang, I really want
to be a team player,
but please just I
I know what's missing!
Um, uh Shall I check again?
No, no, just go, just
go, just go, just go.
No, but this is your win, Leah.
Can somebody fucking run?!
There are nine
possible solutions.
Plus or minus one.
Plus or minus i.
Plus or minus one over the square
root of two, times one, plus i.
Plus or minus one over the square
root of two, times one, minus i.
And zero.
Correct. Yes!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Congratulations to the
50K-a-year private school!
Yes!
Also, it's all right, cos I'm
actually on a scholarship, so
Yeah!
Woo! Yeah!
I'll talk to her, I promise.
Congratulations.
Can I maybe, uh,
pull you for a chat?
You want to pull me for a chat?
It's about Florence's party.
I, uh, don't exactly remember what
I said, if I did say anything.
Well, maybe it wasn't
worth remembering.
No, come on. Yeah, I
was drunk. Yeah, I know.
I could see all
your dance moves.
I think this one's my
personal favourite.
That's that's
what I look like?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Think the arm
was a little bit faster, though.
I saw you, um, talking to Alex.
Come on, Jaheim.
There's nothing serious
going on with Alex.
You know that I like you, but
..I don't know
anything about you,
and you don't know
anything about me.
I know that, for some
reason, your favourite food
is those Twiglet things
that fucking stink.
You drop everything for
your mum when she calls,
even when we're in the
middle of something.
They're very basic
things, but
..they are things nonetheless.
I'm not good at this.
Obviously.
Um, I'm never used to opening up
and getting to know somebody
on this level, but
I think I think
I want to try,
with you.
So, um, yeah.
That's that's
all I'm asking for.
I'll be in touch.
OK.
See you later.
Hey. Hello.
So, um, apparently I did say
something to Beatrix at the party.
Right.
And this something you said to
her, are you glad you said it?
Yeah, I think so.
You don't make things
easy, Jaheim. Sorry.
No need to say sorry.
I knew what this was.
We won't tell anyone,
and no-one gets hurt,
and just leave it there.
We fucked up, didn't we?
Yeah.
We fucked up.
It was fun, though, right?
Yeah.
We good?
Good.
Cool. Cool.
See you in a bit.
Bye.
LOUD HUBBUB
No, no, no, no,
no. Give 'em back.
Please, they're
not what you think!
You're not supposed to see
these! So, they're yours?
Leah.
Is this you with my
laptop? You stole it?
I literally just took it cos I
thought you were cheating on Mabel.
Why the hell would you think
that I was cheating on Mabel?
Because there's a picture of you
and your girlfriend in your room.
Oh, so you've been going
through my things, too?
It's complicated. No,
it's not complicated.
I've been nothing but
fucking nice to you.
Yo, yo, sorry, I don't
know who you're speaking to
in front of all of these
people. Yeah, no, no,
trust Leah to only worry about
what the white people think, huh?
Oh, my days, Devonye, you need
to take a rest on the whole
Malcolm X thing,
it's getting boring!
I don't know why you're coming for
me, right, cos you stole my laptop!
I'm coming for you because you
think you can talk to me anyhow!
I can! You're a selfish bitch!
That's what you are!
ARGUMENT FADES OU
Bea!
Well, at least I know where
you've been sneaking off to
on all those early mornings.
I didn't know you
still liked him.
We were fucking drunk.
I didn't know. Yes, you
did! I didn't know, Beatrix.
Who the fuck would do this?!
Bea! Bea!
What the hell is this? Gross.
Mental. Ew!
Abby, look. Look at this one.
IN BACKGROUND: Here, pass
that one back to me
Oh, my God!
Abby, I can explain
So, it was you who got
the ball cancelled?!
No, that's not true. No need.
It's very well illustrated.
Wait. Abby, wait! Wait!
Abby, wait!
TEACHER SHOUTS LOUDLY
SHE MUTTERS
Now!
The implication is that
What I'm saying is, if
he's still at her house,
then surely he's
putting it in. No way.
Femi? Come on. Come on.
You have to tell me
No. He's putting
Where's Femi?
Um, he's, uh
HE FAKE COUGHS: balls
..deep in work!
THEY LAUGH
Mr Tramley, I asked
you a question!
He's at Jude's house, Mistress.
Doing what?
Studying, Mistress.
God!
Femi, mate, you've
got to pick one.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Um, I'm I'm sorry.
I think I like the
sound of Brecht.
Brecht could be fun.
Epic theatre. The
alienating effect.
Oh, if you like Brecht,
you will love Grotowski.
OK!
Let's call it a day, shall we?!
Jude, I'm so sorry.
Out of my house now, thank you.
That was That was so, so dumb.
That that was I'm stupid.
I'm such a stupid idiot!
I'm I will never
do that again,
I promise. Out of
my house now, Femi!
Mr Adebayo, button yourself
up and head back to your dorm.
Oh! It's not what you think!
Now, Mr Adebayo!
I want you in my office, now.
Yeah.
I'm so lost I don't
know what to say
They call me down but
they tell me every day
Life's got a price and
we all gotta pay ♪
Jaheim. Jaheim!
Omar. Omar, what's going on?
So, when did this relationship
between student Adebayo
and yourself begin?
Don't be ridiculous, Carol.
I'm just trying to get to the
bottom of what has happened.
I have pictures.
Doodles!
I watched Femi
leave your premises.
I don't even want to say
It was a stupid mistake
to have him at my house.
But you know full well
nothing was going on, Carol.
I'll have to take
this to the board.
Take what to the board?!
A child's drawing, and your
account of what exactly?
Me helping a student
with his coursework?
In your home, Jude.
Then stock better books
for the arts department
and I won't have
to pull in my own!
I'm sure there must be
cash lying around. Hmm!
I know it would solve all
your problems if it was true
so you could send me on my way.
But you know as well as I
do that nothing happened.
So stop clutching at straws.
You've got nothing cos
there's nothing to find.
Tiffany, have Femi come and see
me, first thing in the morning.
Yes.
PHONE RINGS
Hey, this is Bea.
Leave a message.
BEEP
Yo.
Thought I could whack you
up real quick. Shut up, bro.
You already know I've got
your number on this one.
Today's been mad.
What kind of mad?
Oh, you would not understand.
Girls, yeah? I
know them troubles.
How do you know about
girl problems, bro?
You ain't even got balls
yet. You're an idiot.
Let me school you, cos clearly
you don't know what you're doing.
Ah, all right, come on, then.
What if it's weird at Mum's?
Then don't go, innit?
I want to go.
DOOR OPENS Maybe
take some games.
Might make it less weird.
Yo. What?
You ain't checked your
wardrobe yet, today?
Why?
I think you should
check it. Oh
Caleb, hold on one sec.
Ah-ha!
Bro, where the fuck
are my clothes?
I think, uh yeah,
Rupert might have something
to do with this, though.
What the fuck?
Rupert!
