| 00:00 - 00:03 | Well, the English exam overall is looking good. |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | Paper 1 was passed without a hitch, |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | and we've prepared ourselves for the Modules. |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | Module A asks us to analyse the central values of the two texts |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | and Module C wants us to analyse divergent viewpoints in relation to human behaviour. |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | Good, good... |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | Very good, what about Module B? |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Oh... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | Well... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | Module B wants us to explain how our appreciation of T. S. Eliot's poetry |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | is achieved through studying fatalism in Journey of the Magi. |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | Anyone who developed the theses and quotes for Paper 1, Module A, and Module C may leave. |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | We were supposed to be prepared! |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | Our teacher told us to memorise all the poems! |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | And here you idiots are, having had us focus on one or two poems!! |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | We had all the quotes... |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | From half the bloody poems! |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | Seriously, I trust you guys to cover all possiblities, |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | And you repay my kindness by having me forget about the other poems |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | and prancing around holding onto your prepared-essay charm necklaces!! |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | But all the past exams we got through using this tac- |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | The HSC is not! A goddamn past exam yet, dumbass! |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | I'm sorry. Maybe we can gather our quotes and- |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | Yes, let's gather them, so we can toss them into a f***ing pit! |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | Coat them in gasoline! |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | Then we'll drop a handful of live grenades in there |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | Toss in a match and throw daggers at them |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | Call in an airstrike and nuke them into oblivion! |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | Because that'll help us more than you have you idiot! |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | I can't believe I trusted you assholes with my goddamn ATAR! |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | How do you expect me to learn Law at UNSW now? |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | I could've gotten notes from f***ing Standard more useful than you lot! |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | I'm gonna have my Xbox thrown onto a fire... |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | All those years of MLG-360-noscoping... |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | to be lost forever because of you assholes! |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | Some day... |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | My friends will point and laugh at the dunce that couldn't write a bloody checklist if he tried! |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | Rolling up in their bloody Lamborghinis and throwing pennies at me like snobs! |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | Then they'll be like |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | "Oh hey man! Can I get some fries with my burger?" |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | And it'd make my day because I could pretend I had a job!! |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | It's okay, you've got a good thesis. |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | I suppose I should give it a shot... |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | Snatch up... what few marks I can get... |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | ...if any. |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | You... can go. |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | I'll improvise what I can, and hand it in. |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | It'd be better than your crap anyway. |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | Better than last year's. |
