ANDY
May not be as bad as you think.
TOMMY
It’s worse! I didn’t get a fuckin’ thing right! Might as well be in Chinese!
ANDY
We’ll see how the score comes out.
TOMMY
I’ll tell you how the goddamn score comes out…
Tommy grabs the test, wads it, slam-dunks it into the trash.
TOMMY
Two points! Right there! There’s your goddamn score!

Goddamn cats crawlin’ up trees, 5 times 5 is 25, fuck this place, fuck it!
Tommy is gone. Red and others stare. Andy gets up,usb flash drive, pulls the test from the trash, smoothes it out on the desk.

and shattered on the floor. The kid’s gone white as a sheet.
TOMMY
