• [Headmaster Trask drives into the Baird School driveway in his brand-new Jaguar. He gets out, to hear a voice on a loudspeaker] 

  Jimmy Jameson : [on loudspeaker, but unidentified]  Mister Trask is our fearless leader.

  [students hear this and gather, looking on at Trask] 

  Jimmy Jameson : A man of learning, a voracious reader. He can recite "The Iliad" in ancient Greek, while fishing for trout in a rippling creek.

  Trent Potter : [Trask grins slightly, trying to figure out where the voice is coming from]  Endowed with wisdom, of judgement sound, nevertheless about him, the questions abound.

  [We now see the same three Baird guys who set up this prank the night before; Harry opens the valve to an oxygen tank connected to a large balloon on a lamppost as Trent passes the microphone to him] 

  Harry Havemeyer : How does Mister Trask make such wonderful deals? Why did the trustees buy him Jaguar wheels? He wasn't conniving, he wasn't crass... he merely puckered his lips... and kissed their ass!

  [balloon spins around to reveal a cartoon bearing the words being spoken; the students laugh and mock Trask] 

  Harry Havemeyer : [Trask pulls out his car keys and opens the Jaguar door, then jumps up to try to pop the balloon with the key. He misses on the first try. On the second try, he succeeds, and a flood of white paint splashes down onto him and all over the car. The students applaud loudly and shout obscenities at him as this catastrophe concludes with Trask kicking the car door closed and attempting to dry his face with handkerchief]
