Brick: Hi, Mrs. Hilsabeck. Graduation's coming up, and I just want to get some parameters on my valedictorian speech. Don't worry. I'm gonna steer clear of any political issues. Eh, except maybe library hours. I'm not ready to give up that fight.
Mrs. Hilsabeck: Well, I'm sorry to tell you this, Brick, but I don't know that you're a shoo-in for valedictorian. Last I heard, it was still between you and another student.
Brick: So who is it?
Mrs. Hilsabeck: It's against school policy to give out that kind of information.
Brick: Of course. And I would never ask you to do anything against such policy. So I'm just gonna leave this dollar bill here on the counter, and if it finds its way into your coin purse and the information mysteriously ends up in my locker... so be it.
