Dr. Frank Napier:
Did you see this yet?
[holding up newspaper story about Clark's fight with a former student]
Dr. Frank Napier:
You know, a lot of your shit comes down on my head.
Joe Clark:
Oh, Frank! Look, this is...
Dr. Frank Napier:
No, You let me talk! It's like you're a big bird with radar and I'm tired of getting hit!
Joe Clark:
Th... this is my fault?
Dr. Frank Napier:
This is nothing! I've got union lawyers threatening me and there's talk of a walk-out!
Joe Clark:
Well, let 'em! They're not doing anything down there anyway!
Dr. Frank Napier:
It is your job to...
Joe Clark:
None of them have a personal stake at that school! Not one!
Dr. Frank Napier:
The fire chief was just in here. He said it was illegal to bar those doors. Mrs. Barrett is organizing a parents' group to try and get you removed since you insulted them at that meeting the other night when you suggested they should get off welfare...
Joe Clark:
Oh, I didn't mean all of...
Dr. Frank Napier:
...because the fact is quite a few of them need it.
Joe Clark:
I wasn't talking to all of them, Frank! Look, you came and recruited me, man, but you disappoint me, brother. You disappoint me!
Dr. Frank Napier:
The disappointment here is you!
Joe Clark:
Me?
Dr. Frank Napier:
Yes!
Joe Clark:
You know who I am. You've known me thirty years! You knew what I would do! You know how I operate!
Dr. Frank Napier:
Nigger, will you keep quiet! the fact is you're screwing up! You're alienating everybody! Look at you, you have no life! Your wife left you! Hell, I oughta walk out on you myself!
Joe Clark:
Well, go ahead! Bail the hell out!
Dr. Frank Napier:
But I said I'd back you up!
Joe Clark:
That's what you said, man! That's what you said!
Dr. Frank Napier:
I would go through the... fire with you, but you are not taking care of business! This shit you're pulling now, you've just gone plain loco! Now you suspend Darnell! What the hell was that?
Joe Clark:
Darnell is symptomatic of the disciplinary problems...
Dr. Frank Napier:
He is a good, strong, young Black teacher! So he... dumped that desk right on top of your head. Well, right on! Good for him! You will reinstate that man, you hear? And you fire Mrs. Elliott! Why? Because she didn't want to kiss your ass! I wouldn't neither! How about that?
Joe Clark:
Mrs. Elliott has an ego problem!
Dr. Frank Napier:
Well, you lost the best teacher we ever had! We couldn't get her back now if we wanted to!
