[Lucas quietly joins the kids in the cafeteria, sad over the distance between him and Maggie]
Ben : [Ben shouts out to Lucas] Lucas! We're over here.
Ben : Sit down. We're trying to figure out how to get rid of this jackass band teacher. I hate the idiot's guts.
Tonto : Too bad Treichel had to kill himself.
Ben : Yeah, Why'd he have to kill himself and leave us with this jackass.
Tonto : Sex-crazed, that's why.
Rena : He wasn't sex-crazed, he was in love.
Tonto : With a dental technician?
Rena : Not everybody has to be glamorous to have someone fall in love with them.
Tonto : You don't kill yourself over a dental technician.
Rena : You ever hear of Romeo and Juliet?
Tonto : Was she a dental technician?
Rena : No, but people do kill themselves when they can't have who they love.
Ben : I thought he had a heart attack.
Tonto : No heart attack, my man. He blew his brains out with a book of poetry open and a rose in the page.
Rena : I think it's kind of beautiful, the poetry, I mean. It was probably Keats or Shelley.
