Kerr:  Some interesting kids, here.

Mr. Sullivan:  You said you wanted them "interesting".

Kerr:  Why do I feel the Junior Gazette is becominga dumping ground for all your problem pupils?

Mr. Sullivan:  Problem pupils? Lynda Day, Kenny Philips,Sarah Jackson... I've given you my star performers.

Kerr:  Sullivan's stars, eh? You've also given meGodfrey Hunter, Frazer Davis...

Mr. Sullivan:  Frazz. He insists. 

Kerr:  Not exactly stars, Bill.

Mr. Sullivan:  Plenty of energy, though. (Sits down) Andisn't that what you said you wanted the Junior Gazette to be? A chance foryouth to channel its energy productively. A chance you seem to think us teachers weren’t quite providing.

Kerr:  You're going to make me regret saying that,aren't you?

Mr. Sullivan:  (laughs) Oh, you never could resist achallenge, Matt! (Opens his briefcase) Andspeaking of challenges, I've saved the besttill last. If you can get this kid to channel his energy productively, I willnominate you for the Nobel peace prize!

Kerr:  Another interesting one?

Mr. Sullivan:  To the point of expulsion.
