00:01:20,887 --> 00:01:22,287
LUCE:
So even though

8
00:01:22,289 --> 00:01:23,956
it appears as if
an evening like this

9
00:01:23,958 --> 00:01:26,457
is meant to honor us
for our academic achievements,

10
00:01:26,459 --> 00:01:29,293
I instead ask
my fellow classmates

11
00:01:29,295 --> 00:01:31,463
to honor the generals
that lead us.

12
00:01:31,465 --> 00:01:33,799
Without our parents
and our teachers,

13
00:01:33,801 --> 00:01:35,968
we would be troops
unprepared for the battles

14
00:01:35,970 --> 00:01:37,839
that lay ahead of us.

15
00:01:38,905 --> 00:01:41,175
We know the road won't be easy.

16
00:01:42,542 --> 00:01:44,909
But with your love
and your faith,

17
00:01:44,911 --> 00:01:46,748
we can be certain
we'll find a way.

18
00:01:48,381 --> 00:01:50,515
So I hope it's not going
too far out of line

19
00:01:50,517 --> 00:01:52,387
to ask my classmates to rise...

20
00:01:53,886 --> 00:01:58,356
and to take this opportunity
to thank you...

21
00:01:58,358 --> 00:02:00,592
our teachers...

22
00:02:00,594 --> 00:02:02,360
and our parents...

23
00:02:02,362 --> 00:02:05,664
for helping us become
who we're meant to be.

24
00:02:05,666 --> 00:02:11,973
[applause]

25
00:02:17,945 --> 00:02:20,611
I hope you enjoyed that
because tomorrow

26
00:02:20,613 --> 00:02:22,414
we'll be back
to driving you crazy.

[laughter]

28
00:02:25,618 --> 00:02:26,985
It was incredible.

29
00:02:26,987 --> 00:02:29,354
Here's my question:
How do we clone this guy?

30
00:02:29,356 --> 00:02:31,390
- [laughter]
- How do we clone him?

31
00:02:31,392 --> 00:02:32,456
Great job.

32
00:02:32,458 --> 00:02:34,058
- Thank you.
- WOMAN: Excuse me.

33
00:02:34,060 --> 00:02:36,295
- Mr. and Mr. Edgar?
- LUCE: Ms. Wilson!

34
00:02:36,297 --> 00:02:37,663
Guys, this is Ms. Wilson,

35
00:02:37,665 --> 00:02:39,397
my history
and government teacher.

36
00:02:39,399 --> 00:02:40,699
A pleasure.

37
00:02:40,701 --> 00:02:42,300
We've heard
so much about you.

38
00:02:42,302 --> 00:02:44,002
- Have you?
- Well, your class.

39
00:02:44,004 --> 00:02:45,903
Luce can't stop
talking about it.

40
00:02:45,905 --> 00:02:47,605
Is that so?

41
00:02:47,607 --> 00:02:50,308
Ms. Wilson's tough,
but still one of my favorites.

42
00:02:50,310 --> 00:02:51,443
Did you like my speech?

43
00:02:51,445 --> 00:02:52,544
I did.

44
00:02:52,546 --> 00:02:53,912
Ms. Wilson's
always saying

45
00:02:53,914 --> 00:02:55,980
we should speak our minds
no matter the cost.

46
00:02:55,982 --> 00:02:57,883
Amen to that.

47
00:02:57,885 --> 00:02:59,918
Well, it's great
to finally meet you.

48
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:02,020
You too.

49
00:03:02,022 --> 00:03:04,423
Luce is, uh, one of our best.

50
00:03:04,425 --> 00:03:06,791
He's an important
example to the school.

51
00:03:06,793 --> 00:03:07,925
We're very
proud of him.

52
00:03:07,927 --> 00:03:09,527
You should be.

53

[Amy chuckles]

54
00:03:12,366 --> 00:03:14,268
Excuse me. Dan...

55
00:03:15,969 --> 00:03:17,902
LUCE: I don't want
to give another one.

56
00:03:17,904 --> 00:03:20,438
Why? It makes sense
they asked you.

57
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:21,706
You did
a great job.

58
00:03:21,708 --> 00:03:23,608
I literally just
gave a speech.

59
00:03:23,610 --> 00:03:25,509
The more public
speaking you do,

60
00:03:25,511 --> 00:03:26,980
the better it'll look
for college.

61
00:03:28,449 --> 00:03:29,884
You told them you'd do it,
right?

62
00:03:31,652 --> 00:03:33,352
What do you think?

63
00:03:33,354 --> 00:03:34,355
[Amy chuckles]

64
00:03:35,556 --> 00:03:37,291
So Ms. Wilson seems nice.

65
00:03:38,392 --> 00:03:40,057
Stern...

66
00:03:40,059 --> 00:03:42,060
- Don't you mean a bitch?
- Peter!

67
00:03:42,062 --> 00:03:45,029
When people say stern, they
mean bitch. You meant bitch.

68
00:03:45,031 --> 00:03:46,931
- You didn't want to say bitch
- No, I said stern.

69
00:03:46,933 --> 00:03:49,433
because you didn't want
to be politically incorrect

70
00:03:49,435 --> 00:03:50,968
- but you meant bitch.
- No.

71
00:03:50,970 --> 00:03:52,903
I know what stern
means, thank you.

72
00:03:52,905 --> 00:03:54,105
She is a bitch though.

73
00:03:54,107 --> 00:03:55,607
AMY:
Can we not denigrate a woman

74
00:03:55,609 --> 00:03:57,608
who probably had
to assume characteristics

75
00:03:57,610 --> 00:03:59,577
- [snores]
- [laughing] in order to attain

76
00:03:59,579 --> 00:04:02,381
a leadership role?

77
00:04:02,383 --> 00:04:04,915
Anyway, I thought you said
it was your favorite class.

78
00:04:04,917 --> 00:04:07,685
- I like the subject.
- He liked the subject.

79
00:04:07,687 --> 00:04:10,521
In spite of
the bitch thing.

80
00:04:10,523 --> 00:04:13,792
Okay, it's fine to
criticize powerful women.

81
00:04:13,794 --> 00:04:16,927
Just don't use
the sexist language.

What?

90
00:04:46,826 --> 00:04:48,492
The next speech
they want you to give,

91
00:04:48,494 --> 00:04:49,596
make it about you.

92
00:04:51,465 --> 00:04:52,767
Okay. [chuckles]

93
00:04:54,468 --> 00:04:55,602
And listen...

94
00:04:57,838 --> 00:04:59,870
You're a really good
public speaker

95
00:04:59,872 --> 00:05:02,440
and you're an
excellent debater.

96
00:05:02,442 --> 00:05:04,074
But you have
your own story to tell

97
00:05:04,076 --> 00:05:05,677
and I think
you should tell it.

98
00:05:05,679 --> 00:05:07,915
It gives people
something to grab onto.

99
00:05:09,816 --> 00:05:11,485
Am I overstepping?

100
00:05:12,953 --> 00:05:14,722
It's good advice.
[chuckles]

101
00:05:15,655 --> 00:05:16,887
Just want to be helpful.

102
00:05:16,889 --> 00:05:17,623
You are.

103
00:05:20,026 --> 00:05:21,728
I'm going to get
back to work now.

104
00:05:23,797 --> 00:05:24,766
Okay.

You're gonna lose
a limb like that.

111

See my trig textbook?
I stashed it here yesterday.

112
00:05:51,792 --> 00:05:53,725
No, it's not here, Orlicki.

113
00:05:53,727 --> 00:05:55,026
- Fuck me.
- You do realize

114
00:05:55,028 --> 00:05:56,761
everyone gets their
own locker, right?

115
00:05:56,763 --> 00:05:58,196
Mine's on the other
side of the building,

116
00:05:58,198 --> 00:06:01,766
- makes me late all the time.
- Ah, shit! Orlicki!

117
00:06:01,768 --> 00:06:04,870
Heard our boy here got asked to
give another speech last night?

118
00:06:04,872 --> 00:06:06,670
- Seriously?
- Oh, motherfucking

119
00:06:06,672 --> 00:06:08,607
Nelson Mandela over here!

120
00:06:08,609 --> 00:06:10,108
I don't get why
I never get asked.

121
00:06:10,110 --> 00:06:11,709
'cause you're a C+ student.

122
00:06:11,711 --> 00:06:13,944
The entire speech would be
about porn and blunts.

123
00:06:13,946 --> 00:06:15,613
ORLICKI: Ah! Fair enough.

- Stephanie Kim, what's good?
- Let's go.

128
00:06:24,758 --> 00:06:26,557
Why you staring at Luce,
Stephanie?

129
00:06:26,559 --> 00:06:27,725
I'm talking to you.

130
00:06:27,727 --> 00:06:29,261
Not everyone likes
your big mouth.

131
00:06:29,263 --> 00:06:30,661
Your mama does.

132
00:06:30,663 --> 00:06:31,963
She loves my big mouth.

133
00:06:31,965 --> 00:06:33,732
Loves it all
over that pussy!

134
00:06:33,734 --> 00:06:35,966
Man, you're so gross!

all at practice.

FEMALE STUDENT:
A law is a law.

139
00:06:44,677 --> 00:06:46,845
Pole-tests used to be law.

140
00:06:46,847 --> 00:06:48,879
So was segregation.
Red lining.

141
00:06:48,881 --> 00:06:50,682
FEMALE STUDENT:
That's not the same.

142
00:06:50,684 --> 00:06:52,117
Explain why.

143
00:06:52,119 --> 00:06:53,685
FEMALE STUDENT:
It's just not.

144
00:06:53,687 --> 00:06:55,153
Things were
different back then.

145
00:06:55,155 --> 00:06:56,588
Different how?

146
00:06:56,590 --> 00:06:58,723
Well, like that was
a different time.

147
00:06:58,725 --> 00:07:00,057
Social norms were different.

148
00:07:00,059 --> 00:07:01,692
People's expectations,

149
00:07:01,694 --> 00:07:02,863
their attitudes...

150
00:07:09,670 --> 00:07:11,605
MS. WILSON:
Is this not important to you?

151
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:14,775
Well?

152
00:07:15,708 --> 00:07:16,975
It is.

153
00:07:16,977 --> 00:07:19,076
You might want
to speak more clearly.

154
00:07:19,078 --> 00:07:20,114
I can't hear you.

155
00:07:21,982 --> 00:07:23,682
It is.

156
00:07:23,684 --> 00:07:26,884
Keep in mind,
that for her,

157
00:07:26,886 --> 00:07:28,920
this knowledge is
incidental but for you

158
00:07:28,922 --> 00:07:30,622
it can be
life or death.

159
00:07:30,624 --> 00:07:33,290
So you might want
to treat this material

160
00:07:33,292 --> 00:07:36,196
with the seriousness
it deserves, Mr. Meeks.

161
00:07:44,937 --> 00:07:48,807
Which reminds me,
I'm almost done

162
00:07:48,809 --> 00:07:50,874
grading your assignments.
I apologize,

163
00:07:50,876 --> 00:07:52,944
it's taking me a little
longer than usual but,

164
00:07:52,946 --> 00:07:54,211
you'll have them

Does that feel funny?

Hey.

How do you feel about
a weekend trip to Cornell?

- Yeah.

I don't want to go. I mean,

But you hate babies.

- Hi.

I appreciate you coming
back down here.

00:10:11,818 --> 00:10:14,184
Well, you have to make time
for what's important.

Ain't that
the truth.

- Thank you.

- Luce too.
- Oh, we're lucky to have him.

We care a great deal
about his success.

- Peter and I too.
- Of course.

215
00:10:26,833 --> 00:10:29,466
And I know
context matters.

Please, sit.

217
00:10:32,072 --> 00:10:34,438
Given Luce's
background,

218
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,109
you and Peter must have faced
quite a few challenges.

219
00:10:38,111 --> 00:10:40,110
the language barrier,
the culture shock.

220
00:10:40,112 --> 00:10:41,346
He's a resilient kid.

221
00:10:41,348 --> 00:10:43,248
He is.
But it's also

222
00:10:43,250 --> 00:10:44,816
a testament to
your parenting.

223
00:10:44,818 --> 00:10:46,918
Well, thank you.

224
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,153
We had a lot of support,

225
00:10:48,155 --> 00:10:50,488
especially in the
early days. I mean,

226
00:10:50,490 --> 00:10:52,389
you don't pull a kid
out of a war zone

227
00:10:52,391 --> 00:10:54,826
and have him turn out like
Luce without a lot of help.

228
00:10:54,828 --> 00:10:56,260
I bet.

229
00:10:56,262 --> 00:10:58,264
Which is why this
is so difficult.

230
00:10:59,266 --> 00:11:00,200
Difficult?

231
00:11:04,838 --> 00:11:07,905
Last week, the class
was given an assignment

232
00:11:07,907 --> 00:11:10,908
to write in the voice
of an historical figure.

233
00:11:10,910 --> 00:11:14,979
Some students picked FDR at the
start of the Great Depression

234
00:11:14,981 --> 00:11:16,214
or even Fidel Castro

235
00:11:16,216 --> 00:11:18,249
at the Bay of Pigs.

236
00:11:18,251 --> 00:11:21,852
The goal was to get them
to think outside of the box.

237
00:11:21,854 --> 00:11:24,357
Want to make sure you understand
where I'm coming from.

Who is this Frantz Fanon?

243
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,626
He was a pan-African
revolutionary.

244
00:12:02,628 --> 00:12:06,630
He argued that violence was
a necessary cleansing force,

245
00:12:06,632 --> 00:12:08,466
that it was needed to
free colonized people

from their rulers.

Look,

00:12:14,306 --> 00:12:17,041
I won't pretend
to know what it's like

250
00:12:17,043 --> 00:12:19,977
for Luce to confront
certain aspects of who he is

251
00:12:19,979 --> 00:12:22,246
and it's not
within my purview

252
00:12:22,248 --> 00:12:25,582

his first 10 years in...

Eritrea.

254
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:28,919
Right.

255
00:12:28,921 --> 00:12:30,321
What that might
have been like,

256
00:12:30,323 --> 00:12:32,956
what kind of adjustments
he must have made

257
00:12:32,958 --> 00:12:34,124
in order to fit in here.

258
00:12:34,126 --> 00:12:36,027
And I don't know

259
00:12:36,029 --> 00:12:38,495
- the details of his treatment...
- I'm sure you've heard

260
00:12:38,497 --> 00:12:40,298
he went through
years of recovery

261
00:12:40,300 --> 00:12:43,067
- and he showed no signs of...
- I-I didn't mean to imply...

262
00:12:43,069 --> 00:12:45,068
I just want to be clear
that whatever

263
00:12:45,070 --> 00:12:48,339
violence he both suffered and
inflicted during that time

264
00:12:48,341 --> 00:12:51,042
was dealt with,
it's been processed.

265
00:12:51,044 --> 00:12:52,342
Of course.

266
00:12:52,344 --> 00:12:55,312
But with the climate
around school security

267
00:12:55,314 --> 00:12:58,249
the way it is right now,
you can understand my concern.

268
00:12:58,251 --> 00:12:59,517
Yes.

269
00:12:59,519 --> 00:13:00,951
Which is why I felt

270
00:13:00,953 --> 00:13:02,953
I needed to search
his locker.

271
00:13:02,955 --> 00:13:04,956
- I'm sorry?
- Amy...

272
00:13:04,958 --> 00:13:06,256
He wrote a paper.

273
00:13:06,258 --> 00:13:08,293
A paper in which
he describes

274
00:13:08,295 --> 00:13:10,695
his belief that the solution
to a political problem

275
00:13:10,697 --> 00:13:12,964
is to gun down those
with whom you disagree.

276
00:13:12,966 --> 00:13:14,631
Right. But he was
assuming a character.

277
00:13:14,633 --> 00:13:17,103
The assignment called
for this and you...

278
00:13:21,107 --> 00:13:22,876
I found this in his locker.

279
00:13:26,713 --> 00:13:28,012
- No.
- Amy.

280
00:13:28,014 --> 00:13:29,013
No, I'm sorry.

281
00:13:29,015 --> 00:13:31,249
I respect my son's privacy.

282
00:13:31,251 --> 00:13:33,384
Now, he wrote a paper
that scared you. Fine.

283
00:13:33,386 --> 00:13:34,552
That's between
you and him.

284
00:13:34,554 --> 00:13:36,354
But I won't,
I will not violate

285
00:13:36,356 --> 00:13:38,456
his right to the privacy
he's owed.

286
00:13:38,458 --> 00:13:40,390
They're fireworks.

287
00:13:40,392 --> 00:13:42,994
Illegal and very dangerous
fireworks.

288
00:13:42,996 --> 00:13:45,196
They could put a hole
in the wall, let alone...

Where are you going with this?

Right now I'm the only one
who knows about them,

291
00:13:49,569 --> 00:13:52,102
but what if someone else
were to find them?

292
00:13:52,104 --> 00:13:55,139
If someone who didn't know
Luce the way you and I do

293
00:13:55,141 --> 00:13:58,176
were to stumble on this within
the context of his background

294
00:13:58,178 --> 00:13:59,612
having written this...

295
00:14:00,579 --> 00:14:01,547
Take them.

296
00:14:02,415 --> 00:14:03,349
Talk to him.

297
00:14:05,452 --> 00:14:08,352
Who he is is too important
to this school

298
00:14:08,354 --> 00:14:09,721
for him to fuck it up.

299
00:14:09,723 --> 00:14:12,092
He can't fuck it up.

300
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,194
Talk to him, please.

301
00:14:20,699 --> 00:14:21,701
I will.

Yeah.

00:15:03,309 --> 00:15:05,676
Okay, yeah, kids get
taken with ideas.

318
00:15:05,678 --> 00:15:07,144
Look, he probably stumbled

319
00:15:07,146 --> 00:15:09,080
across Frantz Fanon
on the internet

320
00:15:09,082 --> 00:15:10,581
and went overboard.

321
00:15:10,583 --> 00:15:13,116
I read the Communist Manifesto
when I was an undergrad

322
00:15:13,118 --> 00:15:15,219
and called people
comrade for a month.

Yeah, well, I think he's

and no one really
could prove anything

but she kept using Stephanie
as like an example.

into a victim.

in Middle East or something

00:19:10,822 --> 00:19:13,490
"We all know firsthand
how important it is for women

between punishing someone

rewarding them if they're not?

One of the two
comes with benefits.

What you'd call a benefit,

is benefit of the doubt.

might not. So...

00:24:01,981 --> 00:24:04,181
is premised on
two court cases:

Goss v. Lopez,
1975,

and New Jersey
v. T.L.O., 1985.

482
00:24:09,855 --> 00:24:12,990
In Goss, an Ohio school
suspended nine students

483
00:24:12,992 --> 00:24:14,223
for delinquent behavior,

484
00:24:14,225 --> 00:24:15,992
but the Supreme Court found

485
00:24:15,994 --> 00:24:18,628
that depriving students of
their right to an education

486
00:24:18,630 --> 00:24:19,762
without
due process

487
00:24:19,764 --> 00:24:21,932
is a violation
of their civil rights.

488
00:24:21,934 --> 00:24:23,701
Ms. Wilson,
do you agree with that?

489
00:24:23,703 --> 00:24:25,336
I'm sorry?

490
00:24:25,338 --> 00:24:27,070
LUCE:
Do you agree that those kids

491
00:24:27,072 --> 00:24:29,740
were deprived of
their civil rights?

492
00:24:29,742 --> 00:24:32,875
I don't know the specifics
of the case but

493
00:24:32,877 --> 00:24:35,311
- the principal...
- Principal makes sense, right?

494
00:24:35,313 --> 00:24:36,814
Education is a civil right.

495
00:24:36,816 --> 00:24:38,147
Everyone should have
civil rights.

496
00:24:38,149 --> 00:24:40,217
- Right.
- In the second case

497
00:24:40,219 --> 00:24:43,953
a student is accused of smoking
in the school bathroom,

498
00:24:43,955 --> 00:24:45,623
but there's no proof.

499
00:24:45,625 --> 00:24:48,025
The charge is premised
on a teacher's suspicion.

500
00:24:48,027 --> 00:24:51,194
So the principal searched
her purse and found cigarettes

501
00:24:51,196 --> 00:24:53,196
and marijuana-related
paraphernalia.

502
00:24:53,198 --> 00:24:54,664
Do you agree with that?

503
00:24:54,666 --> 00:24:56,299
What did the court say?

504
00:24:56,301 --> 00:24:57,901
The court found that students

505
00:24:57,903 --> 00:25:00,807
have a reduced expectation
of privacy in schools.

506
00:25:01,406 --> 00:25:02,405
It makes sense.

507
00:25:02,407 --> 00:25:03,941
Does it?

508
00:25:03,943 --> 00:25:08,778
A school is a unique
social institution.

509
00:25:08,780 --> 00:25:10,847
It's populated by people
who aren't adults

510
00:25:10,849 --> 00:25:13,651
in the eyes of the law.
People who have to be here.

511
00:25:13,653 --> 00:25:15,752
- Students.
- Yes.

512
00:25:15,754 --> 00:25:16,953
Students are half people.

513
00:25:16,955 --> 00:25:18,255
LENA:
Luce,

514
00:25:18,257 --> 00:25:20,223
is there a specific
question you have

515
00:25:20,225 --> 00:25:22,393
that Ms. Wilson
might be able to address?

516
00:25:22,395 --> 00:25:23,394
Totally.

517
00:25:23,396 --> 00:25:25,695
Thanks Ms. Tennyson.

518
00:25:25,697 --> 00:25:27,431
Um, basically my question

519
00:25:27,433 --> 00:25:29,732
that I hope Ms. Wilson
can help me with

520
00:25:29,734 --> 00:25:32,769
is around this idea
of reduced expectation

521
00:25:32,771 --> 00:25:35,939
versus the affirmation by the
court of student civil rights.

522
00:25:35,941 --> 00:25:37,941
Like what are the criteria
for evaluating

523
00:25:37,943 --> 00:25:39,742
what's a violation
of privacy?

524
00:25:39,744 --> 00:25:41,345
Is privacy a civil right?

525
00:25:41,347 --> 00:25:42,813
LUCE:
I think so.

526
00:25:42,815 --> 00:25:44,651
Maybe the law isn't so sure.

527
00:25:47,086 --> 00:25:49,385
If I went through your desk
without you knowing,

528
00:25:49,387 --> 00:25:51,323
would you feel like
your privacy was violated?

529
00:25:53,792 --> 00:25:55,425
Yes, I would.

530
00:25:55,427 --> 00:25:57,361
So?

531
00:25:57,363 --> 00:25:59,730
Feelings aren't
a legal argument.

532
00:25:59,732 --> 00:26:02,700
In the New Jersey case,
the teacher assumed

533
00:26:02,702 --> 00:26:04,902
the girl was guilty
because of her feelings.

534
00:26:04,904 --> 00:26:07,871
That's called
reasonable suspicion.

535
00:26:07,873 --> 00:26:10,807
It's all the police need
to search your car.

536
00:26:10,809 --> 00:26:13,242
LUCE:
So it's about what's reasonable.

537
00:26:13,244 --> 00:26:15,781
That's what courts are for.

538
00:26:17,316 --> 00:26:20,183
Really it's just about
people though, right?

539
00:26:20,185 --> 00:26:22,388
Whether they conform
to what we think they are.

540
00:26:24,155 --> 00:26:25,258
It's not that simple.

541
00:26:26,357 --> 00:26:27,761
Nothing ever is.

I wanted to talk to you about

What about it?

591
00:28:39,457 --> 00:28:41,557
I assumed you spoke
to your mother...

I haven't gotten it back yet.
How could I talk my mom of it?

Well, I'll just say, uh...

After reading it,
I have some concerns

I believe that stuff?

The lights.

646
00:30:54,225 --> 00:30:55,328
Poof!

647
00:30:57,195 --> 00:31:00,297
Luce, I'd like to remind you
that you're still a student here

648
00:31:00,299 --> 00:31:02,432
and I am your teacher.

649
00:31:02,434 --> 00:31:06,603
And regardless of what you may
view as some sort of injustice

650
00:31:06,605 --> 00:31:08,605
- What are you talking about?
- ...or unfair,

651
00:31:08,607 --> 00:31:11,344
just remember how things
are organized around here.

652
00:31:13,278 --> 00:31:15,248
Totally.
I'll see you around.

653
00:31:26,492 --> 00:31:29,358
- The financials from Cusack.
- Thanks, Beth.

654
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,228
Quarter end payments
went out, right?

655
00:31:31,230 --> 00:31:35,101
- Yes.
- [cell phone vibrating]

656
00:31:38,069 --> 00:31:39,038
Yeah?

657
00:31:41,373 --> 00:31:44,010
Ms. Wilson.
How are you?

658
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:50,713
Why is she calling you?

659
00:31:50,715 --> 00:31:53,349
Well, last I checked
I'm one of two parents.

660
00:31:53,351 --> 00:31:55,352
Yeah, but she was
communicating with me

661
00:31:55,354 --> 00:31:56,752
and now she's calling you?

662
00:31:56,754 --> 00:31:59,489
Well, we're both available
to talk about our son.

663
00:31:59,491 --> 00:32:03,226
This woman has some kind
of vendetta against Luce.

664
00:32:03,228 --> 00:32:04,594
- Vendetta? Really?
- Yeah.

665
00:32:04,596 --> 00:32:07,096
She has some <i>thing</i>
with him and now,

666
00:32:07,098 --> 00:32:09,132
now she's trying to
divide and conquer.

667
00:32:09,134 --> 00:32:10,499
Nice word choice.

668
00:32:10,501 --> 00:32:12,134
What she did
with Stephanie Kim

669
00:32:12,136 --> 00:32:14,203
and what she's trying
to do now with Luce,

670
00:32:14,205 --> 00:32:17,074
this woman holds different kids
to different standards based...

671
00:32:17,076 --> 00:32:19,476
Did you see or hear what
she did to that girl?

672
00:32:19,478 --> 00:32:22,311
- I've heard enough to know.
- From Luce, yeah.

673
00:32:22,313 --> 00:32:26,215
Yes, from our son, who has
always been honest with us.

674
00:32:26,217 --> 00:32:28,684
Except about having illegal
fireworks in his locker.

675
00:32:28,686 --> 00:32:30,453
He didn't lie about that.

676
00:32:30,455 --> 00:32:32,622
- Is that so?
- Not telling us

677
00:32:32,624 --> 00:32:34,758
and lying are two
different things.

678
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,160
And what if there's
a pattern here?

679
00:32:37,162 --> 00:32:38,528
- A pattern?
- Yeah.

680
00:32:38,530 --> 00:32:40,430
The paper, the fireworks,
the threat...

681
00:32:40,432 --> 00:32:42,699
Peter...

682
00:32:42,701 --> 00:32:45,102
- We have to be at least open to
- Absolutely not.

683
00:32:45,104 --> 00:32:47,269
the possibility that
our son is capable of...

684
00:32:47,271 --> 00:32:50,207
Of what? Capable of what?

685
00:32:50,209 --> 00:32:52,142
Tell me you know
he's a good kid, Pete.

686
00:32:52,144 --> 00:32:53,710
Tell me if shit
hits the fan,

687
00:32:53,712 --> 00:32:55,479
we aren't about
to abandon our son.

688
00:32:55,481 --> 00:32:57,480
- We're not going to abandon him.
- Our black son to a system

689
00:32:57,482 --> 00:32:59,684
that already wants
to shit all over him.

690
00:33:01,686 --> 00:33:04,753
It's our job to protect him,
to have his back.

691
00:33:04,755 --> 00:33:06,423
That's part of it.
It's our job

692
00:33:06,425 --> 00:33:08,157
- to do what's right.
- By him.

693
00:33:08,159 --> 00:33:09,726
To do what's
right by him.

694
00:33:09,728 --> 00:33:11,327
[keys jangling]

695
00:33:11,329 --> 00:33:12,662
- Luce!
- Yeah?

696
00:33:12,664 --> 00:33:14,498
- Got a minute?
- You said you'd do this my way.

697
00:33:14,500 --> 00:33:16,365
- PETER: Yeah.
- What's up?

698
00:33:16,367 --> 00:33:17,733
Did you threaten
your teacher?

699
00:33:17,735 --> 00:33:18,768
- Honey...
- Excuse me?

700
00:33:18,770 --> 00:33:19,769
You heard me.

701
00:33:19,771 --> 00:33:20,769
Did I threaten...?

702
00:33:20,771 --> 00:33:23,173
Ms. Wilson called.

703
00:33:23,175 --> 00:33:24,673
Ms. Wilson said
I threatened her?

704
00:33:24,675 --> 00:33:25,842
Did you?

705
00:33:25,844 --> 00:33:27,344
- What did she say?
- She said...

706
00:33:27,346 --> 00:33:29,311
Never mind what she said.
What did you do?

707
00:33:29,313 --> 00:33:30,814
She asked me
to come and see her.

708
00:33:30,816 --> 00:33:32,449
And?

709
00:33:32,451 --> 00:33:34,750
I thanked her for helping
me with my debate case.

710
00:33:34,752 --> 00:33:36,886
- She helped you?
- Yeah, her and Principal Dan.

711
00:33:36,888 --> 00:33:39,155
Why would I
threaten her?

712
00:33:39,157 --> 00:33:41,157
What did she want
to talk to you about?

713
00:33:41,159 --> 00:33:43,225
A paper.
We had a misunderstanding.

714
00:33:43,227 --> 00:33:45,194
I apologized for it.

715
00:33:45,196 --> 00:33:46,930
You say anything about
the 4th of July?

716
00:33:46,932 --> 00:33:48,365
- What?
- Honey...

717
00:33:48,367 --> 00:33:50,366
- About fireworks?
- How is that a threat?

718
00:33:50,368 --> 00:33:52,736
Did you or did you not say
something about the 4th of July?

719
00:33:52,738 --> 00:33:54,770
I said the 4th of July
was my favorite holiday.

720
00:33:54,772 --> 00:33:56,272
Why would you say that?

721
00:33:56,274 --> 00:33:57,807
I thought we were
having a conversation.

722
00:33:57,809 --> 00:33:59,475
She says I threatened her?

723
00:33:59,477 --> 00:34:01,343
I need you to be straight
with me for a second.

724
00:34:01,345 --> 00:34:02,747
- When am I not?
- Hey!

725
00:34:06,484 --> 00:34:07,419
Sure.

726
00:34:09,687 --> 00:34:12,724
So is there anything
you want to tell us?

727
00:34:13,792 --> 00:34:15,258
- No.
- You sure about that?

728
00:34:15,260 --> 00:34:16,892
Am I sure about what?
Jesus, if you guys

729
00:34:16,894 --> 00:34:18,627
- want to ask me...
- Why did you have

730
00:34:18,629 --> 00:34:20,663
illegal fireworks
in your locker?

731
00:34:20,665 --> 00:34:21,964
- LUCE: What?
- Why did you have

732
00:34:21,966 --> 00:34:23,866
illegal fireworks
in your locker?

733
00:34:23,868 --> 00:34:26,269
- I didn't.
- Luce, don't lie to me.

734
00:34:26,271 --> 00:34:27,604
- I'm not.
- Luce!

735
00:34:27,606 --> 00:34:29,272
How would you know
what's in my locker?

736
00:34:29,274 --> 00:34:31,808
- Harriet told us.
- Harriet has a lot to say.

737
00:34:31,810 --> 00:34:34,310
Never mind what she said.
Did you or didn't you?

738
00:34:34,312 --> 00:34:36,779
- Not that I know of.
- Oh, you know what?

739
00:34:36,781 --> 00:34:39,515
- Fuck this.
- We share lockers.

740
00:34:39,517 --> 00:34:41,517
The guys on the team
share lockers.

741
00:34:41,519 --> 00:34:44,321
Half my shit is in Orlicki's,
half his shit is in mine.

742
00:34:44,323 --> 00:34:46,323
I don't know what 90%
of the crap at the bottom is,

743
00:34:46,325 --> 00:34:48,325
- let alone who it belongs to.
- So...

744
00:34:48,327 --> 00:34:50,396
So not everything in
my locker belongs to me.

745
00:34:51,597 --> 00:34:52,665
Okay, good.

746
00:34:54,265 --> 00:34:55,265
That's good.

747
00:34:55,267 --> 00:34:56,566
Now, you understand

748
00:34:56,568 --> 00:34:58,334
why it's important
to know

749
00:34:58,336 --> 00:35:00,870
not only what's in your locker,
but who it belongs to.

750
00:35:00,872 --> 00:35:02,404
- Yes.
- Right?

751
00:35:02,406 --> 00:35:03,673
You can't blindly
trust people to...

752
00:35:03,675 --> 00:35:06,812
Okay. You seriously
buy this shit?

753
00:35:09,548 --> 00:35:10,616
Seriously?

754
00:35:12,883 --> 00:35:15,986
So someone just happens to leave
a bag of illegal fireworks

755
00:35:15,988 --> 00:35:18,520
in your locker
and you have no idea?

756
00:35:18,522 --> 00:35:22,491
And then this teacher,
who you don't like,

757
00:35:22,493 --> 00:35:25,861
unjustifiably searches
your locker and finds them.

758
00:35:25,863 --> 00:35:27,529
You're just an
unlucky victim

759
00:35:27,531 --> 00:35:29,732
- of circumstance, right?
- It's the truth.

760
00:35:29,734 --> 00:35:31,700
That doesn't sound
like the truth to me.

761
00:35:31,702 --> 00:35:33,371
That sounds like bullshit.

762
00:35:40,778 --> 00:35:41,813
You believe me?

763
00:35:48,452 --> 00:35:49,754

on my fucking neck.

where he's coming from.

to Dartmouth.

went to Dartmouth.

get into Dartmouth.

someone's gonna stop you?

I'm not interested in being
the next Deshaun either.

783

You're not like Deshaun.

Yeah, but he's
like black-black.

Then what am I?

to apologize

for before.

00:49:14,392 --> 00:49:18,794
I was walking and I was trying
to make it there and then...

962
00:49:18,796 --> 00:49:22,098
the food, the food was...

963
00:49:22,100 --> 00:49:23,432
Shhh!

964
00:49:23,434 --> 00:49:26,368
- I'll clean it. I'll clean up.
- You're okay.

965
00:49:26,370 --> 00:49:29,571
- I'll clean it up.
- Shhh.

966
00:49:29,573 --> 00:49:32,674
Breathe. Breathe.

967
00:49:32,676 --> 00:49:34,576
[Ms. Wilson exhales]

[door opens and closes]

970
00:49:39,550 --> 00:49:41,216
Hey! Sorry I'm late.

971
00:49:41,218 --> 00:49:43,821
No. Please, sit.

972
00:49:45,522 --> 00:49:48,124
They screwed up the order.
I asked for cappuccinos

973
00:49:48,126 --> 00:49:49,625
and they gave us
Frappuccinos.

974
00:49:49,627 --> 00:49:51,526
- I like these more.
- Oh, you do?

975
00:49:51,528 --> 00:49:54,395
Can't make it to the dinner
without at least three of them.

976
00:49:54,397 --> 00:49:57,500
- Okay.
- [both laugh awkwardly]

977
00:49:57,502 --> 00:50:00,903
- Thank you.
- No, thank you for, um,

978
00:50:00,905 --> 00:50:03,571
meeting me.
This must be a little weird.

979
00:50:03,573 --> 00:50:05,573
It is.

980
00:50:05,575 --> 00:50:08,377
Okay. Um, yeah, well
I guess I was hoping

981
00:50:08,379 --> 00:50:11,647
you could help me with
something to do with Luce.

982
00:50:11,649 --> 00:50:13,415
We don't really
talk a lot anymore.

983
00:50:13,417 --> 00:50:17,886
- Oh, you don't?
- Not since we broke up.

984
00:50:17,888 --> 00:50:19,388
What?

985
00:50:19,390 --> 00:50:21,189
You didn't know
we broke up?

986
00:50:21,191 --> 00:50:22,760
I didn't know you dated.

987
00:50:23,660 --> 00:50:24,662
Oh.

988
00:50:26,531 --> 00:50:28,533
Um, for how long?

989
00:50:30,834 --> 00:50:32,700
Um... Mrs. Edgar,

990
00:50:32,702 --> 00:50:34,336
I don't feel
comfortable

991
00:50:34,338 --> 00:50:36,171
- telling you about me and Luce.
- Yeah, of course.

992
00:50:36,173 --> 00:50:39,341
Because I don't know
why you want to know.

993
00:50:39,343 --> 00:50:42,511
- Okay. Let me explain myself.
- Yeah.

994
00:50:42,513 --> 00:50:45,513
- This is about Harriet Wilson.
- What?

995
00:50:45,515 --> 00:50:47,683
I need to know
what she did to you.

996
00:50:47,685 --> 00:50:49,384
Because Luce told us

997
00:50:49,386 --> 00:50:52,321
that when she found out
what happened at the party...

998
00:50:52,323 --> 00:50:55,290
Luce swore he wouldn't tell
what happened at the party.

999
00:50:55,292 --> 00:50:57,328
I thought he didn't know
what happened.

1000
00:50:59,530 --> 00:51:00,562
I should go.

1001
00:51:00,564 --> 00:51:02,464
No, wait.
Stephanie, please.

1002
00:51:02,466 --> 00:51:04,265
Listen to me.

1003
00:51:04,267 --> 00:51:07,636
I just want to know
the truth, Okay?

1004
00:51:07,638 --> 00:51:10,872
Now, if Ms. Wilson made you
feel like whatever happened

1005
00:51:10,874 --> 00:51:14,276
should be some kind of
a political statement,

1006
00:51:14,278 --> 00:51:15,711
then that's wrong of her.

1007
00:51:15,713 --> 00:51:19,314
As women what we need to do
is support each other.

1008
00:51:19,316 --> 00:51:20,351
Do you understand?

1009
00:51:22,252 --> 00:51:23,451
I'm not sure.

1010
00:51:23,453 --> 00:51:25,553
I want to support you.

1011
00:51:25,555 --> 00:51:27,458
You deserve to be supported.

1012
00:51:32,263 --> 00:51:33,231
Okay.

1013
00:51:37,535 --> 00:51:40,569
But for me to do that
I need to know what happened.

1014
00:51:40,571 --> 00:51:43,439
It's easy to say that.

1015
00:51:43,441 --> 00:51:46,875
But once you know something,
you can't un-know it.

1016
00:51:46,877 --> 00:51:49,581
I want to know,
no matter what.

1017
00:51:51,281 --> 00:51:52,450
Please.

1018
00:51:58,555 --> 00:52:02,359
[crickets chirping]

1019

[engine cuts]

1020
00:52:12,535 --> 00:52:15,870
Harriet, please...

1021
00:52:15,872 --> 00:52:18,906
I'm sorry. I can't think of
any other way to resolve this.

1022
00:52:18,908 --> 00:52:22,278
You suffer from
a condition, Ro.

1023
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,281
And it's clear my home is no
longer an ideal environment.

1024
00:52:25,283 --> 00:52:26,682
You sound like
one of them doctors

1025
00:52:26,684 --> 00:52:27,950
she about to
dump me with again.

1026
00:52:27,952 --> 00:52:30,519
- I'm not dumping you.
- Oh really?

1027
00:52:30,521 --> 00:52:31,923
That's what it
feels like, Harriet!

1028
00:52:34,357 --> 00:52:35,890
- [whimpers]
- Come on, now.

1029
00:52:35,892 --> 00:52:38,294
Don't make a scene.
Don't make a scene.

1030
00:52:38,296 --> 00:52:39,864
Harriet!

1031
00:52:41,464 --> 00:52:42,730
- Ro...
- It's fine.

1032
00:52:42,732 --> 00:52:44,433
It's fine, it's fine...

1033
00:52:44,435 --> 00:52:45,570
It's fine!

1034
00:52:55,312 --> 00:52:58,916
Harriet!
[whimpering]

1035
00:53:03,653 --> 00:53:05,022
Orlicki had a party.

1036
00:53:07,892 --> 00:53:09,558
I was drunk.

1037
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:11,859
I had gone with two friends.
All three of us were drunk.

1038
00:53:11,861 --> 00:53:14,395
Please don't tell anyone
this, it's embarrassing.

1039
00:53:14,397 --> 00:53:17,368
No, no, this is between us.
I promise.

1040
00:53:18,935 --> 00:53:24,073
People kept having shots of
stuff that tasted like syrup

1041
00:53:24,075 --> 00:53:28,042
and I just kept drinking it
because it was easy

1042
00:53:28,044 --> 00:53:30,781
but I got dizzy.

1043
00:53:31,848 --> 00:53:33,484
I lost my friends.

1044
00:53:35,419 --> 00:53:37,955
Orlicki found me and told me
to go lie down in the basement.

1045
00:53:40,390 --> 00:53:42,124
It was dark.

1046
00:53:42,126 --> 00:53:43,694
I couldn't see.

1047
00:53:45,428 --> 00:53:46,895
I felt my way
over to the couch

1048
00:53:46,897 --> 00:53:48,767
but there were
people there.

1049
00:53:50,868 --> 00:53:53,736
Next, someone said we should
play the Santa Claus game.

1050
00:53:53,738 --> 00:53:54,472
What's that?

1051
00:53:55,906 --> 00:53:59,441
It's this stupid game
that guys play

1052
00:53:59,443 --> 00:54:02,444
where a girl gets passed
around from lap to lap

1053
00:54:02,446 --> 00:54:04,379
and depending on how far
she lets them go

1054
00:54:04,381 --> 00:54:06,647
or how much they like you
sitting on them,

1055
00:54:06,649 --> 00:54:08,816
they rate you
from one to three.

1056
00:54:08,818 --> 00:54:10,051
Ho ho hos.

1057
00:54:10,053 --> 00:54:11,655
My God, that can't be real.

1058
00:54:12,990 --> 00:54:14,426
There are worse games.

1059
00:54:15,993 --> 00:54:16,928
Anyway,

1060
00:54:18,461 --> 00:54:19,997
they started
passing me around.

1061
00:54:21,531 --> 00:54:24,767
I kept thinking,
"God,

1062
00:54:24,769 --> 00:54:26,935
what if I throw up
right now?

1063
00:54:26,937 --> 00:54:28,807
How embarrassing
would that be?"

1064
00:54:31,075 --> 00:54:33,645
When they started,
they were laughing.

1065
00:54:34,711 --> 00:54:36,480
But the longer
it went on...

1066
00:54:38,115 --> 00:54:42,386
And it felt like
it went on forever.

1067
00:54:44,588 --> 00:54:47,992
All I could hear
was breathing.

1068
00:54:50,428 --> 00:54:52,127
Breathing,

1069
00:54:52,129 --> 00:54:54,997
and counting.

1070
00:54:54,999 --> 00:54:57,068
One, two,

1071
00:54:58,468 --> 00:55:00,002
two,

1072
00:55:00,004 --> 00:55:01,106
three...

1073
00:55:02,071 --> 00:55:04,908
One, two...

1074
00:55:06,176 --> 00:55:07,176
At some point

1075
00:55:07,178 --> 00:55:08,676
I definitely said

1076
00:55:08,678 --> 00:55:10,044
I wanted them to stop.

1077
00:55:10,046 --> 00:55:12,180
But maybe it sounded
like I was joking

1078
00:55:12,182 --> 00:55:15,486
or maybe it was just something
I said to myself in my head...

1079
00:55:17,588 --> 00:55:21,091
There were hands
everywhere.

1080
00:55:23,593 --> 00:55:25,829
It was like
they were swallowing me.

1081
00:55:28,999 --> 00:55:31,535
And sometimes
in their laps

1082
00:55:33,102 --> 00:55:36,441
I could feel...
[sniffles]

1083
00:55:37,841 --> 00:55:39,109
Oh!
[sniffling]

1084
00:55:40,044 --> 00:55:40,979
Oh.

1085
00:55:42,646 --> 00:55:43,948
Gross.
[nervous chuckle]

1086
00:55:47,051 --> 00:55:48,683
Um.

1087
00:55:48,685 --> 00:55:52,154
When I woke up,
Luce was there.

1088
00:55:52,156 --> 00:55:54,089
He said he found them
and told them to stop.

1089
00:55:54,091 --> 00:55:55,691
[laughs nervously]

1090
00:55:55,693 --> 00:55:57,861
And he stayed with me
the rest of the night.

1091
00:56:00,731 --> 00:56:02,434
Is it possible that...?

1092
00:56:03,968 --> 00:56:05,200
Was Luce one of the guys?

1093
00:56:05,202 --> 00:56:07,069
He wouldn't do that.

1094
00:56:07,071 --> 00:56:08,773
- But he...
- He just wouldn't.

1095
00:56:14,678 --> 00:56:16,047
What happened
with Ms. Wilson?

1096
00:56:17,714 --> 00:56:20,117
There were
a lot of rumors.

1097
00:56:21,852 --> 00:56:23,584
It was
at the same time

1098
00:56:23,586 --> 00:56:25,254
Deshaun Meeks got
kicked off the team

1099
00:56:25,256 --> 00:56:28,290
because Wilson found
weed in his locker.

1100
00:56:28,292 --> 00:56:31,759
She searched
Deshaun's locker?

1101
00:56:31,761 --> 00:56:33,694
And called
the cops.

1102
00:56:33,696 --> 00:56:36,765
I didn't want that.
What would I say?

1103
00:56:36,767 --> 00:56:38,200
I couldn't
remember anything

1104
00:56:38,202 --> 00:56:42,169
and I definitely didn't tell
everyone I was drunk.

1105
00:56:42,171 --> 00:56:43,240
What did Luce say?

1106
00:56:44,575 --> 00:56:47,245
He said I was right
not to tell.

1107
00:56:48,812 --> 00:56:51,013
Because he was protecting
his friends.

1108
00:56:51,015 --> 00:56:52,881
Because he was
protecting me.

1109
00:56:52,883 --> 00:56:55,587
He didn't want me to do
anything I didn't want to do.

1110
00:57:00,990 --> 00:57:02,493
Why did you two break up?

1111
00:57:03,894 --> 00:57:04,863
I don't know.

1112
00:57:06,796 --> 00:57:07,932
I miss him.

1113
00:57:09,300 --> 00:57:11,535
He's the best boyfriend
I ever had.

1114
00:57:15,673 --> 00:57:16,640
[sniffles]

1115
00:57:18,908 --> 00:57:20,144
Stephanie...

1116
00:57:21,578 --> 00:57:23,712
I'm really sorry
for what happened.

1117
00:57:23,714 --> 00:57:24,712
Don't be.

1118
00:57:24,714 --> 00:57:25,649
[chuckles]

1119
00:57:27,117 --> 00:57:28,586

Look, we made a choice.

1149
00:59:22,765 --> 00:59:25,403
I'm okay with that as long
as you recognize it cost us.

1150
00:59:26,403 --> 00:59:27,405
Which means?

1151
00:59:28,872 --> 00:59:31,372
I did want something
different once.

1152

Ten years and
you're trapped.

Your words.

1154
00:59:35,211 --> 00:59:37,845
Well, you said it.
You wanted something different.

1155
00:59:37,847 --> 00:59:40,314
- I did, yeah.
- Like what?

1156
00:59:40,316 --> 00:59:44,155
Look, I'm proud of our son.

1157
00:59:45,756 --> 00:59:48,990
Okay, I love him.
I love him

1158
00:59:48,992 --> 00:59:52,294
more than I'll ever
understand, okay?

1159
00:59:52,296 --> 00:59:55,464
But we spent years
with him in therapy

1160
00:59:55,466 --> 00:59:57,299
and rehabilitation.

1161
00:59:57,301 --> 00:59:58,933
Our friends
couldn't understand

1162
00:59:58,935 --> 01:00:01,837
why we didn't just
have a kid of our own.

1163
01:00:01,839 --> 01:00:03,337
And so while they
fell away doing

1164
01:00:03,339 --> 01:00:06,741
what normal
fucking people do,

1165
01:00:06,743 --> 01:00:09,111
we worked our asses off
to give him a life,

1166
01:00:09,113 --> 01:00:12,480
at the expense of our own.
So to pretend that

1167
01:00:12,482 --> 01:00:14,348
that didn't
cost us anything

1168
01:00:14,350 --> 01:00:15,850
- is bullshit.

You want so
desperately for him

1172
01:00:24,294 --> 01:00:26,060

in front of you.

to this school,

1186
01:01:06,135 --> 01:01:07,404
and I found myself.

1187
01:01:11,941 --> 01:01:14,845
When I first met my mother,
she couldn't pronounce my name.

1188
01:01:16,245 --> 01:01:19,814
She tried over and over
to get the emphasis

1189
01:01:19,816 --> 01:01:22,484
on the syllables
correct, but...

1190
01:01:22,486 --> 01:01:23,821
she just couldn't.

1191
01:01:26,423 --> 01:01:29,127
So my father suggested
that they rename me.

1192
01:01:38,001 --> 01:01:40,067
They picked Luce,

1193

1197

I am to be an American.

Because here I got
the chance to start over.

01:07:14,571 --> 01:07:17,571
It was insane.

1281
01:07:17,573 --> 01:07:20,276
Who knew that Ms. Wilson's
family was so fucked up?

Where's Harriet?

1287
01:07:39,729 --> 01:07:41,796
Um, I think she spent
most of the day

1288
01:07:41,798 --> 01:07:44,232
at the police station
with her sister.

Nothing, it's just...

1292
01:07:49,673 --> 01:07:52,506
You never really know what's
going on with people.

she was a bitch.

1295
01:08:01,717 --> 01:08:05,155
Well, I think I owe you
an apology, Luce.

1296
01:08:06,256 --> 01:08:07,822
- For what?
- Really.

1297
01:08:07,824 --> 01:08:09,823
You've never given me any
reason to doubt your integrity.

You should know
we got your back.

- No matter what. Asshole.

I need to talk to you
about Luce.

1310
01:10:07,377 --> 01:10:09,710
Harriet, if you Googled
"model student"

1311
01:10:09,712 --> 01:10:12,080
Luce Edgar's picture would
come up on the computer

1312
01:10:12,082 --> 01:10:15,383
and now you're telling me that
this kid, graffiti-ed your home?

1313
01:10:15,385 --> 01:10:16,850
It's not just
the graffiti, Dan.

1314
01:10:16,852 --> 01:10:18,719
No, he also wrote
an upsetting paper.

- He argued violence...
- A paper

that you no longer
have a copy of.

1317
01:10:21,458 --> 01:10:22,622
I gave it to his mother.

1318
01:10:22,624 --> 01:10:24,091
An upsetting paper
where it sounds

1319
01:10:24,093 --> 01:10:26,827
like he did exactly what the
assignment asked him to do.

1320
01:10:26,829 --> 01:10:28,895
I know the difference
between miscommunication

1321
01:10:28,897 --> 01:10:31,666
and provocation. I can tell
the difference between them.

1322
01:10:31,668 --> 01:10:33,968
Isn't there a chance,
just maybe,

1323
01:10:33,970 --> 01:10:37,804
that what he wrote
just went over your head?

I don't mean that
as a dig.

Then when that doesn't
work she goes to Dan.

She's having a personal crisis,
she's taking it out on our son.

- You see Dan's email?
- Yeah.

I'm not sure
what it's about.

I guess we'll just
wait and see.

your advice you know.

About what?

1357
01:12:40,629 --> 01:12:42,496
The speech.

1358
01:12:42,498 --> 01:12:45,903
I'm making it more personal.
I think you'll be proud.

I'm sure I will be.

1360

So, um,

01:12:52,208 --> 01:12:53,707
I'll see you
at the meeting.

- Six o'clock sharp.
- Great.

1363
01:13:01,551 --> 01:13:03,754
Why didn't you tell me
you talked to Stephanie?

1364
01:13:05,521 --> 01:13:07,457
You didn't think
she would tell me?

1365
01:13:09,758 --> 01:13:11,826
I don't think either of us
have been great

01:13:11,828 --> 01:13:13,294
at keeping each other
in the loop, Luce.

1367
01:13:13,296 --> 01:13:15,062
What are you
trying to prove?

1368
01:13:15,064 --> 01:13:16,563
What are you
trying to hide?

1369
01:13:16,565 --> 01:13:18,032
I'm not trying
to hide anything.

1370
01:13:18,034 --> 01:13:20,734
That's not the impression
I got from Stephanie.

1371
01:13:20,736 --> 01:13:22,670
- What did she say?
- You tell me.

1372
01:13:22,672 --> 01:13:24,205
You're the one
that talked to her.

- Stop it.
- Stop what?

- This game.
- What game?

- What did you do to that girl?
- What, you think I...?

Never mind what I think.
What did you do to her?

1377
01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:33,613
- I did the right thing.
- By lying?

1378
01:13:33,615 --> 01:13:35,550
She threatened to kill herself.
Ms. Wilson kept pushing...

1379
01:13:35,552 --> 01:13:37,885
By protecting
the people who hurt her?

1380
01:13:37,887 --> 01:13:39,120
I wanted her
to get better.

1381
01:13:39,122 --> 01:13:40,688
Then why didn't you
ask for help?

1382
01:13:40,690 --> 01:13:42,188
- She was better.
- I think you're lying.

1383
01:13:42,190 --> 01:13:43,890
- I'm not lying.
- Tell me the truth.

- I'm telling you the truth.
- Stop lying to me.

- I'm not lying.
- Tell me the fucking truth!

Why did you write that paper?

What if I told you
it's what I believed?

1388
01:14:04,913 --> 01:14:06,013

you're all waiting for me
to confirm this thing...

1395
01:14:32,374 --> 01:14:34,243
that no one wants
to say aloud.

so hard

not to be that.

1398

help but think that maybe

Hey, guys. Come on in.

01:17:22,878 --> 01:17:24,111
How you doing, Amy?

1451
01:17:24,113 --> 01:17:26,013
How you doing, Peter?
Good to see you.

1452
01:17:26,015 --> 01:17:27,915
- Hey, Dan.
- Dan.

1453
01:17:27,917 --> 01:17:29,550
- You all right?
- Been better.

1454
01:17:29,552 --> 01:17:31,518
- How's the clinic?
- Busy. Always busy.

1455
01:17:31,520 --> 01:17:33,353
- Busy is good.
- Yeah.

1456

Busy is always good.

Good to see you.

So we're just, uh, missing
the man of the hour here.

1463
01:17:52,007 --> 01:17:53,840
He should be along here.

Ah-ha!

1465
01:17:54,843 --> 01:17:56,977
- Hey!
- Hey. Sorry, sorry.

1466
01:17:56,979 --> 01:17:59,279
- I lost track of time.
- Lost track at the track.

1467
01:17:59,281 --> 01:18:01,314
- Sounds like the Luce I know.
- [chuckles]

- How are you?
- Principal Towson.

1470
01:18:05,020 --> 01:18:07,487
Notice he's all formal
now that he's a senior.

1471

Getting ready

Go ahead.
You first.

1478
01:18:21,937 --> 01:18:24,537
Well, I guess
first things first.

1479
01:18:24,539 --> 01:18:28,175
There have been a series
of miscommunications

1480
01:18:28,177 --> 01:18:31,845
and I think rather than try
to hash all that out,

1481
01:18:31,847 --> 01:18:36,317
it's probably more productive
to just acknowledge

1482
01:18:36,319 --> 01:18:38,885
some tension has developed
between Luce and me.

1483
01:18:38,887 --> 01:18:40,321
MS. WILSON:
It happens.

1484
01:18:40,323 --> 01:18:42,355
Signals get crossed
and we have to find

1485
01:18:42,357 --> 01:18:44,191
a way to untangle the knots,

1486
01:18:44,193 --> 01:18:47,294
even if we're not sure how those
knots got there in first place.

1487
01:18:47,296 --> 01:18:48,495
LUCE:
Definitely. And, um.

1488
01:18:48,497 --> 01:18:50,630
Um, I just want to apologize

1489
01:18:50,632 --> 01:18:53,200
for making you feel
disrespected.

1490
01:18:53,202 --> 01:18:54,934
I've taken on a lot
this semester,

1491
01:18:54,936 --> 01:18:57,438
and not that that's an excuse,
it's not but...

1492
01:18:57,440 --> 01:19:01,111
I haven't been my best self
lately and I'm sorry for that.

1493
01:19:03,378 --> 01:19:05,015
- Thank you, Luce.
- You're welcome.

1494
01:19:06,449 --> 01:19:08,415
This is going really
well, I think, so far.

1495
01:19:08,417 --> 01:19:10,084
Let's talk about
the threat.

1496
01:19:10,086 --> 01:19:12,252
Oh, I'm sorry for that too,
Ms. Wilson.

1497
01:19:12,254 --> 01:19:13,254
Sorry?

1498
01:19:13,256 --> 01:19:14,554
Are you admitting it now?

1499
01:19:14,556 --> 01:19:16,156
Like I was saying, uh,

1500
01:19:16,158 --> 01:19:17,892
given the stress
I've been under,

1501
01:19:17,894 --> 01:19:19,660
I'm sure what I said
sounded a bit...

1502
01:19:19,662 --> 01:19:22,595
No, no, no. I'm sorry,
but this isn't about some

1503
01:19:22,597 --> 01:19:24,965
stress-induced
problem of tone.

1504
01:19:24,967 --> 01:19:26,166
This is about
one person

1505
01:19:26,168 --> 01:19:27,635
suggesting violence
against another.

1506
01:19:27,637 --> 01:19:29,569
- Excuse me?
- You weren't there, Mr. Edgar.

1507
01:19:29,571 --> 01:19:31,938
There are interactions
that must be experienced

1508
01:19:31,940 --> 01:19:33,439
in order to appreciate
their intent.

1509
01:19:33,441 --> 01:19:35,041
Respectfully,

1510
01:19:35,043 --> 01:19:37,210
I think you should choose
your words more carefully.

1511
01:19:37,212 --> 01:19:39,612
- My son has just apologized.
- Has he?

1512
01:19:39,614 --> 01:19:42,582
I-I think in the interest
of moving forward, Harriet,

1513
01:19:42,584 --> 01:19:45,318
it would be helpful for you to
acknowledge Luce did in fact

1514
01:19:45,320 --> 01:19:47,621
- apologize.
- Where were you last night?

1515
01:19:47,623 --> 01:19:50,991
- LUCE: What?
- My home was vandalized.

1516
01:19:50,993 --> 01:19:52,326
Uh, just a second...

1517
01:19:52,328 --> 01:19:53,661
I want to know
where you were between

1518
01:19:53,663 --> 01:19:55,562
when school let out
and I got back to my house.

1519
01:19:55,564 --> 01:19:58,098
- I was out.
- Where?

1520
01:19:58,100 --> 01:19:59,465
Is my son being
accused of a crime?

1521
01:19:59,467 --> 01:20:01,001
He sure as hell
is about to be.

1522
01:20:01,003 --> 01:20:02,236
Because if he is,

1523
01:20:02,238 --> 01:20:03,636
if he is being
accused of a crime,

1524
01:20:03,638 --> 01:20:04,971
I want a lawyer.

1525
01:20:04,973 --> 01:20:06,206
It's fine.
I didn't do anything.

1526
01:20:06,208 --> 01:20:07,942
This woman's sister,

1527
01:20:07,944 --> 01:20:10,411
this woman's sister has just
gone through a very public

1528
01:20:10,413 --> 01:20:12,712
- mental breakdown.
- All right.

1529
01:20:12,714 --> 01:20:14,380
How do you know
she's not responsible?

1530
01:20:14,382 --> 01:20:15,683
- My sister wouldn't do that.
- Neither would my son.

1531
01:20:15,685 --> 01:20:16,684
All right, okay.

1532
01:20:16,686 --> 01:20:18,955
Everybody just... Luce,

1533
01:20:19,989 --> 01:20:21,554
Can you help us out here?

1534
01:20:21,556 --> 01:20:23,592
Can you tell us where you
were after school yesterday?

1535
01:20:26,294 --> 01:20:28,364
- I don't want to say.
- Where were you?

1536
01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:33,003
- With friends.
- MS. WILSON: Who?

1537
01:20:34,971 --> 01:20:36,202
See, he's lying, Dan.

1538

Harriet!

1539
01:20:37,739 --> 01:20:39,406
Principal Towson,
I can explain where I was

1540
01:20:39,408 --> 01:20:41,675
but I do not want to
get people in trouble.

1541
01:20:41,677 --> 01:20:43,643
I respect
your discretion, but,

1542
01:20:43,645 --> 01:20:46,013
Luce, your mom,
your dad, Ms. Wilson,

1543
01:20:46,015 --> 01:20:50,317
we're all just trying to pin
down what's going on here, okay?

1544
01:20:50,319 --> 01:20:53,120
And if you know anything,
if you could help us with that,

1545
01:20:53,122 --> 01:20:54,557
it's-it's only going
to help you.

1546
01:20:56,191 --> 01:20:57,624

Please don't tell anyone
I'm showing you this.

You told her

Right, Ms. Wilson?
You're confused.

Luce, I'm going to need you
to step out for a moment.

to say to us,

you can say
in front of him.

01:22:50,405 --> 01:22:53,607
Your son brought illegal
fireworks onto school property.

1748
01:32:31,953 --> 01:32:33,289
Look at Luce.

1749
01:32:34,256 --> 01:32:35,688
Be like Luce.

1750
01:32:35,690 --> 01:32:37,322
Yes.

1751
01:32:37,324 --> 01:32:39,294
And I remember them all
looking at me.

1752
01:32:40,729 --> 01:32:42,231
They weren't jealous.

1753
01:32:43,864 --> 01:32:45,900
They were just trying
to figure it out.

1754
01:32:46,802 --> 01:32:48,304
How do I get that?

1755
01:32:50,372 --> 01:32:52,805
And all I can think about
was Deshaun.

1756
01:32:52,807 --> 01:32:55,075
All he had was that
athletic scholarship

1757
01:32:55,077 --> 01:32:56,809
and you took it
from him.

1758
01:32:56,811 --> 01:32:58,444
You took it from him
because he wasn't me.

1759
01:32:58,446 --> 01:33:00,145
- Yes.
- Why?

1760
01:33:00,147 --> 01:33:02,415
Because for every Deshaun
Meeks I don't come down on,

1761
01:33:02,417 --> 01:33:04,149
there's a Luce Edgar
I can't lift out.

1762
01:33:04,151 --> 01:33:05,751
That's bullshit.

1763
01:33:05,753 --> 01:33:07,252
Why do we have to be
perfect to be accepted?

1764
01:33:07,254 --> 01:33:08,921
Boy, that's our life!

1765
01:33:08,923 --> 01:33:10,756
No, you're so
desperate for approval

1766
01:33:10,758 --> 01:33:12,125
that you'll eat your own
just to get it.

1767
01:33:12,127 --> 01:33:13,763
- Whose approval?
- Who do you think?

1768
01:33:15,763 --> 01:33:18,333
Everyone who made you feel like
being black wasn't good enough.

1769
01:33:20,435 --> 01:33:22,902
But I don't need their approval.
I'm not going to be

1770
01:33:22,904 --> 01:33:25,471
somebody's symbol just to
make them feel better.

1771
01:33:25,473 --> 01:33:27,842
You still don't get it.

1772
01:33:28,843 --> 01:33:30,844
You don't get it.

1773
01:33:30,846 --> 01:33:33,947
It's not just about you
and it's not about me.

1774
01:33:33,949 --> 01:33:38,117
America put you in a box.

1775
01:33:38,119 --> 01:33:41,821
And it's tight and it's dirty
and you can't move.

1776
01:33:41,823 --> 01:33:43,990
But guess what? Too bad.

1777
01:33:43,992 --> 01:33:47,195
We're all in there together,
whether you like it or not.

1778
01:33:48,896 --> 01:33:53,435
And only so much light
gets in that box, Luce.

1779
01:33:55,070 --> 01:33:57,770
Some people get it,
and some people don't.

1780
01:33:57,772 --> 01:34:00,139
But it's not on you to decide
who gets it and who doesn't.

1781
01:34:00,141 --> 01:34:02,410
You're damn right
it's on you!

1782
01:34:04,178 --> 01:34:05,448
It's on you.

1783
01:34:06,847 --> 01:34:10,849
After all,
who did you use to

1784

do your little errands while you
were busy establishing alibis?

Hm!

1788
01:34:25,167 --> 01:34:26,901
You got a lot to learn,
little man.

1789
01:34:28,837 --> 01:34:32,174
Now you get the fuck
out of my house.

1790
01:34:34,810 --> 01:34:36,278
Get out of my house!

[items clattering]

Are you hiding
Christmas presents?

1810
01:39:44,151 --> 01:39:46,788
That's where you used
to hide my Christmas presents.

1811
01:39:50,557 --> 01:39:52,461
You were always
so surprised.

1812
01:39:54,262 --> 01:39:56,198
I'm good at
acting surprised.

LUCE: Remember Dennis?

1818
01:40:49,449 --> 01:40:50,651
AMY:
Yeah.

1819
01:40:52,654 --> 01:40:54,823
Of course
I remember Dennis.

1820
01:40:58,493 --> 01:41:00,562
I thought
we could try again.

1821
01:41:06,534 --> 01:41:08,303
Thanks...

1822
01:41:10,238 --> 01:41:11,539
Mom.

1823
01:41:18,212 --> 01:41:20,815
You have your whole
future ahead of you.

1824
01:41:22,583 --> 01:41:24,352
Full of potential.

1825
01:41:26,988 --> 01:41:28,624
Hope you're right.

1826
01:41:29,556 --> 01:41:30,892
I know I'm right, honey.

1827
01:41:33,494 --> 01:41:34,930
I know.

[applause]

1831
01:42:10,931 --> 01:42:12,965
Hi, everyone.

1832
01:42:12,967 --> 01:42:16,434
I want thank Principal Towson
for giving me this opportunity.

1833
01:42:16,436 --> 01:42:19,037
It means a lot to be able
to talk with each of you

1834
01:42:19,039 --> 01:42:20,773
about my story,

1835
01:42:20,775 --> 01:42:22,774
which I'm told
is pretty unique,

1836
01:42:22,776 --> 01:42:24,745
even though I still feel
pretty regular.

1837
01:42:26,881 --> 01:42:31,684
I'm lucky enough to have
two amazing parents

1838
01:42:31,686 --> 01:42:32,984
who when they saw
my picture

1839
01:42:32,986 --> 01:42:35,587
at seven years old
weren't scared.

1840
01:42:35,589 --> 01:42:38,758
Or if they were they did a
good job of hiding it because

1841
01:42:38,760 --> 01:42:41,393
the parents I grew up with were
nothing but loving and brave.

1842
01:42:41,395 --> 01:42:43,264
AUDIENCE:
Aww!

1843
01:42:45,033 --> 01:42:47,903
I came here
to America,

1844
01:42:48,903 --> 01:42:50,338
to this school,

1845
01:42:51,372 --> 01:42:52,841
and I found myself.

1846
01:42:55,810 --> 01:42:59,812
When I first met my mother,
she couldn't pronounce my name.

1847
01:42:59,814 --> 01:43:02,682
She tried over and over
to get the emphasis

1848
01:43:02,684 --> 01:43:05,417
on the syllables correct,
but she just couldn't

1849
01:43:05,419 --> 01:43:08,356
so my father suggested
that they rename me.

1850
01:43:09,690 --> 01:43:12,994
They picked Luce,
which means light.

1851
01:43:14,061 --> 01:43:15,760
Because my mom always said that

1852
01:43:15,762 --> 01:43:18,663
there was a little beam
of light shone inside me.

1853
01:43:18,665 --> 01:43:20,099
If only they could
sweep the darkness

1854
01:43:20,101 --> 01:43:21,703
of those first
seven years away.

1855
01:43:23,503 --> 01:43:25,337
I thought of that
as I was figuring out

1856
01:43:25,339 --> 01:43:27,342
what to say to you all tonight.

1857
01:43:29,343 --> 01:43:33,614
And I realized how lucky
I am to be an American.

1858
01:43:36,717 --> 01:43:38,819
Because here I got
the chance to start over.

1859
01:43:40,587 --> 01:43:43,089
Here we get to be who we are
and still be accepted

1860
01:43:43,091 --> 01:43:44,359
despite our flaws.

1861
01:43:45,659 --> 01:43:47,495
Here we get to tell
our own story.

1862
01:43:49,963 --> 01:43:51,429
This is mine.

my new name,

1865
01:43:55,970 --> 01:43:58,036
I was still just
learning English,

1866
01:43:58,038 --> 01:43:59,772
so I took it to be
the word "loose,"
