you guys should be studying.
-Fine.
Let's review our notes.

How could this happen?
-It's not our fault.
Mr. Prusko is the most
boring teacher ever.
-If you guys don't study,
you're going to fail this test.
-If I fail this test,
it'll bring down my average.
And in a world
without high grades,
I don't even know who I am.
-I am not gonna
let that happen.
You've been helping me
with school
since you taught me
how to use a glue stick.
-You were using the wrong end.

We still have a few days
before the test.
We'll work together
