flower shop was out of my way

safekeeping we wanted to break that be a
heartbreaker that wasn't the only one
trying to impress miss Robertson it's
two-ply thank you this morning I'd like
to introduce you to a very special
author his name is William Shakespeare
and he wrote some of the world's most
beautiful stories can anyone name one of
them um there's one about the guy and
other guy oh you must mean to Gentlemen
of Verona
well done Louie even though I didn't
know the answer I didn't feel silly miss
Robertson had a way of making me feel
special
I imagined she had the same effect on
the other boys I loved
Louie Louie just gonna tie my shoe
[Music]
let broom roll bring her flowers and
Scott formaldehyde jars I was gonna
learn Shakespeare and be Miss Robertson

exactly what we'll be laughing when the
big one here meanwhile we'll be sitting
pretty in our temperature-controlled
radiation-proof air nice bombs out

[Music]
after dad's brief career as an oil
tycoon the busted sewer pipe forced him
to venture into plumbing and since any
trip to the hardware store was
considered part of my formal education I
was recruited how's your b*mb shelter
coming along I drafted some of the
neighbors will have it finished in no
time I take a gander at my baby walnut
paneling track lighting sauna I'm
thinking you're moving in hey mister
flying again guys shanks bear around
here
Shakespeare you're not into that too my
oldest has them teaching that nonsense
down at the cedar no military academy
when I thought he was a military man he
is
he runs the joint so what's with the
Shakespeare well that's what I keep
asking him those kids should be learning
something useful like cooking riveting
or grading oh yeah Rama did a noble in
speaking of work are you gonna help the
old man with the shop you later
tomorrow tomorrow and tomorrow not
tomorrow today the enemy's wrath shall
wait my father for I must tend to issues
present an easier time understanding the
Germans in Salerno who's teaching him
this garbage anyway why the fair maiden
Miss Robertson teaching him the floors
reading three years why she took away
one of the arse
questions anyone why didn't Shakespeare
give anyone a normal name like Bob or
Phil or Ted or Cindy splendid question
Louie well I believe Romeo and Juliet
isn't more romantic title than Bob and
Juliet I'm glad to see you're taking
such an interest in your reading
Shakespeare stuff is so hard how's this
something's rotten in the state of
Denmark interesting interpretation can
anyone help mr. Glen out something's
rotten in the state of Denmark heaven
will direct it very impressive for your
exceptional knowledge of Shakespeare
I can't things couldn't have been any
better really necessary Andy private
move your tail to the shelter double
time pitiful just pitiful officially
we're all goners good maybe now we can
all rest in peace
all right everybody spread out come on
[Music]
I thought this shelter was supposed to
protect us from the enemy
[Music]
friends Romans countrymen lend me your
ears
Windom what is he talking about what the
kids trying to say is that we need a
system families are the last things a
through em have the shelter Monday
Wednesdays and Fridays smart kid you got
there Andy come father yon breakfast
away well you sure are chipper this
morning person no I mean we're all your
helpers after last night's little Malkin
cookie party we decided it's every man
for himself so much for strength and
numbers wow you and I make too that's
all the numbers I need sorry dad I'm
busy I gotta finish my oatmeal and after
that I gotta brush up on my Shakespeare
the Shakespeare keep a roof over your
head and food on the table does
Shakespeare pay your allowance but Dad
I'm in the middle of King Henry before
I'm the king and King and II the first
says he needs to uneasy lies the head
that wears the crown and that means it
means go easy on your kids or they'll
take over your kingdom that's mutiny
Wow this is a surprise huh I haven't
seen you in what to roll hours I didn't
do it I swear you know the routine me
hardly think Shakespeare it's can't a
man can't run a family on it like that
mr. Anderson a family is a group of
people living together to offer one
another love support and understanding
not an elite tactical squadron well I
say she's filling his head with all
sorts ideas and it's your job to get rid
of her excuse me
make your calls hello miss Anderson let
me start by saying how much I enjoy
having you in my class
so you can greenwashing with all that
Shakespeare propaganda Shakespeare's
plays are hardly don't get me wrong
security he's got no respect for who's
boss and it ain't going over too good
with me ain't it's not a word mr.
Anderson what do you know anyway you're
a principal not a teacher
sound exactly like my father you must be
a military man fighting 5th regiment we
proud of it then I was an army brat
myself father there was a full-bird
Colonel well I'll bet my Purple Heart
for citations and three traffic
violations then he doesn't go for this
Shakespeare sound either contrary mr. a
he's a big fan especially Richard the
third Henry the fifth Macbeth anything
with a sword and
to Shakespeare run about w*r with a
marine or something
not exactly but you'd have a hard time
finding an author who wrote about Wars
vividly as William Shakespeare a horse a
horse my kingdom for a horse horse
widely just use a tank they didn't have
tanks in those days just bows arrows and
the occasional Louie dad is a Benedict
Arnold any chance of getting here to
replace Tyler in here excuse me these
crumpets keep coming up on me too so
what about it how about giving miss
Robertson oh I'm sorry mr. Anderson but
we just can't afford it but I know
someone who might be able to use you
full-time make some real done that would
be smashing my pal son runs the Cedar
Knoll military academy with that
interest you
[Music]
well it's nice to see you too what are
you doing here good news
I passed my stone worth miss Robertson
she's moved on now let's open our math
books and begin yeah Louie way to go
what you think monkey bars 3:30 and
don't be late King Louie here got miss
Robertson fired again not
why would Louie do a thing like that he
worshipped her well just to get my
belongings so you are leaving
they've offered me a full-time job at
the military academy place of course
you'll be 21 by then where's my little
room you know here tasty mom what's the
matter Louie
dad got miss Robertson fired
hey smart how was school today what's
the matter cat got your tongue to brood
what do you call me names for my
favorite teacher fired your father did
no such thing
you ruined my life he's gonna teach me
Shakespeare now it's not Shakespeare he
loves you dole OE everyone gets a crush
on a teacher at least once in their
lives I don't have a crush on her it's
hard when someone you like so much has
to go away isn't it one couldn't mr.
Lamberg be the one who got fired I can't
be Romeo if he's Juliet I remember when
my favorite art teacher left I thought I
would never enjoy life drawing again but
after a short time I noticed my drawings
became richer and more complicated and
there's somehow relates to me the truth
is I remembered what he taught me long
after he was gone my mom the point is
well I wouldn't be surprised at all if
Shakespeare became your favorite author
even without miss Robertson because of
Miss Robertson
how's your shelter coming along miss
Robertson I'm sorry my dad got you fired
your dad gave me the old heave-h* I mean
not at all oh he got me hired at the
academy full time and everything when I
thought mr. Lambert was coming back as
soon as he got well anyway your dad has
been a great help to me tell you what
anytime you get stuck you just come
round the academy and we'll figure it
out together how's that
absolutely toss me in the Thames if I
don't yeah
- my favorite king louie the first
[Music]
welcome and thanks again to you mr.
party that I shall say good night till
it be morrow
not bad reading Shakespeare sure I
thought any fellow who wrote a book
about w*r was worth taking a peek sorry
dad
I should have known you wouldn't have
done anything to hurt miss Robertson
she's a real peach makes pretty weak
coffee though so you ready to help the
old man with the shelter father knows
his own child dad and I finished the
b*mb shelter that afternoon there's
nothing like a good incentive hopefully
we never had to use it in fact two weeks
later we turned it into a pool for now
biggest in thine own backyard yon Hall
is always best suited for a swimming
pool and that's not Shakespeare that's
Louie
hey buddy Jenny don't burn me
