the revenue curve
you will get exactly the same
amount of revenue as at this point
Does anyone know
what Bush called this in 1980?

Jeanie, I'm really sorry
about your brother
What are you sorry for?
I have to live with him
- I heard he's really sick
- Who said he's sick?
A bunch of people
say he's close to death
I heard that if Ferris dies,
he's giving his eyes to Stevie Wonder
He's such a sweetie Got to go
- Hi, Jeanie
- Shut up
How desperate is the situation?
Did you see "Alien"?
When the creature
was in that guy's stomach?
It feels like that
Freshman
- Are you kidding?
- Do I sound like I'm kidding?
- It's Ferris Bueller
- He got me out of summer school
We appreciate you letting us
know how you're doing.
I hope he doesn't die
I can't handle summer school
- Give me somebody else
- Sure, hold on
- Did you see "Alien"?
- Yeah, why?
Hello? Hi, Ferris, how's your bod?
You're dying?
- Is it serious?
- I hope not
- I may need a kidney transplant
- Shit! Are you upset?
- Excuse me
- Will you be alive this weekend?
- Yeah, I'd say so
- Great Maybe I'll see you
I don't trust this kid
any further than I can throw him
With your bad knee, Ed,
you shouldn't throw anybody It's true
What is so dangerous about him
is that he gives good kids bad ideas
The last thing I need is 1,500 Bueller
disciples running around these halls
He jeopardises my ability
to govern this student body
- He makes you look like an ass
- Thank you, but you're wrong
He's very popular
Sportoes, motorheads, geeks,
sluts, bloods, wasteoids, -
- dweebies, dickheads,
they all adore him
That is why I have got to catch him
To show these kids that his example
is a first-class ticket to nowhere
Ed! You sounded
like Dirty Harry just then
Really?
Thanks, Grace
- You can't make me wait like this
- (CAMERON) Let me rot in peace.
It's my ninth sick day If I get caught,
I won't graduate I'm doing this for you
- Do you know what my diastolic is?
- Take some Pepto Bismal
- Get dressed and come on over
- Shut up
Hold your water for a second
I've got another call Hello?
- Ferris. You sound terrible.
- Darn, I thought I was improving.
- Were you sleeping?
- Dad, can you hang on for a second?
- Sure, pal
- Hang on
- Cameron, it's my dad
- Great Keep me out of it
If you're not over here in 15 minutes,
you can find a new best friend
Dad, all this talking has made me
kind of light-headed
- I think I ought to lie down
- Wrap a hot towel round your head
- Wrap a hot towel round my head?
- Make some soup, then get a nap
- Ferris, I love you, pal
- I love you, too
I bet Cameron is sitting in his car
debating whether or not to go out
He'll keep calling me until I come over
He'll make me feel guilty
This is ridiculous I'll go I'll go
I'll go Shit!
Goddammit!
Forget it That's it
In what way
does the author's
use of the prison
symbolise
the protagonist's struggle?
And how does this relate
to our discussion
of the uses of irony?
Mr Nolan, may I interrupt, please?
Sloane Peterson,
may I have a word with you, dear?
I'm afraid that I am the bearer
of bad tidings
Your father called
Your grandmother has just passed
- No
- Oh, darling! Honey
- Dead grandmother?
- That's what Mr Peterson said
I had Florence Sparrow
notify the poor little lamb
- Who is this girl going out with?
- It's so hard to tell these days
I do see her with Ferris Bueller
quite a bit
Would you get me
Mr Peterson's daytime number?
- Ed Rooney's Office
- This is George Peterson.
Please hold
What do you know, it's Mr Peterson
Do you still want
his daytime number?
- Ed Rooney
- Ed, this is George Peterson.
- How are you today, sir?
- Well, we've had a bit of bad luck.
Yeah, I heard I'm all broken up
Boy, what a blow
Yeah, it's been a tough morning.
We've got a lot of family business.
