[ DISTANT WAILING ] CAN YOU HEAR THAT?
WHAT? YEAH. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE SEA,
BUT MORE PURPLE. WHAT? NO.
YOU'RE RIGHT. IT'S MORE LIKE
THE SOUND OF CHRISTMAS, BUT, LIKE,
IN A DESERT. WHAT DOES THAT
EVEN MEAN?! YEAH, IT'S MORE LIKE THE SOUND
OF A CELLPHONE [ Goofy voice ]
DROPPING INTO AN ICE CREAM CAKE. [ Mimicking goofy voice ]
OHHH! DARWIN WATTERSON
IS MAKING A JOKE. 'CAUSE IT CLEARLY SOUNDS
MORE LIKE A -- [ Normal voice ] YEAH, WE SHOULD
PROBABLY JUST SEE WHAT IT IS. [ WAILING ] WHAT'S WRONG,
MR. SMALL? OH, WILL THIS RAIN
NEVER END? I DON'T THINK
THAT'S RAIN. [ SQUEAK! ] I MEANT THE METAPHORICAL RAIN
IN MY SOUL. [ SIGHS ]
I JUST REALIZED THERE IS NOTHING FULFILLING
ABOUT BEING A TEACHER. OH, COME ON.
I'M SURE THERE'S LOTS TO LIKE. HEY, COACH! WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE THING
ABOUT TEACHING? WATCHING THE MINUTES TICK BY
UNTIL THE DAY I CAN RETIRE. UH, MISS SIMIAN? FOR ME, IT'S THE EXCITED
PITTER-PATTER OF LITTLE FEET... LEAVING MY CLASSROOM! PRINCIPAL BROWN? FREE COFFEE!
[ PANTING ] WHAT COULD POSSIBLY HAVE MADE
YOU ALL FEEL LIKE THAT? All: CHILDREN! YOU SEE?
I CAME HERE TO SHAPE MINDS, CHALLENGE PERCEPTIONS,
AND BE REMEMBERED AS THE SINGLE GREATEST TEACHER
THAT EVER LIVED. IS THAT
TOO MUCH TO ASK? YES.
I MEAN MAYBE. I MEAN [SIGHS]
WHATEVER DARWIN WANTS ME TO SAY. I don't want us
to be the ones to crush
this poor man's spirit.
[ SIGHS ] WHEN I FIRST CAME
TO ELMORE JUNIOR HIGH, I WANTED TO INSPIRE
TROUBLED KIDS FROM DIFFICULT
BACKGROUNDS. I DON'T SUPPOSE
EITHER OF YOU ARE IN AN ILLEGAL
STREET GANG. HE'S IN THE SYNCHRONIZED
SWIMMING TEAM. DOES THAT COUNT?
[ SIGHS ] [ WAILING ] [ THUD ] [ Mumbling ]
I DUNNO. [ SIGHS ] [ SIGHS ] HMM?
UH. UHHH... EH. UMM... What the...? I mean,
ask him to inspire us. Couldn't you have just said that
in the first place? Both:
PLEASE, SIR, INSPIRE US. WHOO, HOO, HOO, HOO! OH, I HAVE SO MUCH
ADVICE FOR YOU. NOBODY EVER USED TO
LISTEN TO ME, SO I MADE
THESE MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES YOU GET
ON THE INTERNET. LOOK! Gumball: OKAY.
[ MOUSE CLICKS ] RIGHT. DO YOU HAVE ANY, LIKE,
UM, BEGINNERS ADVICE? SORT OF...SIMPLER, MORE KIND OF
OBVIOUS ONES THAT... MAKE SENSE? HMM. [ INHALES DEEPLY ] FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS.
