User blog:Cdc1998/Charles' Time at Bullworth: Chapter 40-

By now it's saturday and Charles has detention for causing a fake alarm to get out of his last bell class. And of course it's saturday detention. Charles then reports to the libary, where the detention is being held. When he walks in he sees Ted, Mandy, Pinky, and Patrick are also there. Charles then sits down and Assistant Principal Johnson walks in. "Well well. Here we are. I want to congratulate you all for being on time. It is now 7:06. You have exactly 8 hurs and 54 minutes to think about WHY you are here- to ponder the error of your ways. You will not talk... you will not move from these seats. (now adressing Charles) And YOU... will not sleep. All right people we're going to try something a little different today. We are going to write... am essay... of not less than a thousand words... describing to me who you think you are. And when I say 'ESSAY', I mean 'ESSAY', NOT one word repeated a thousand times. Is that clear, Mr. Caldwell?" Johnson says. "Crystal" Charles says. "Good. You might learn a thing or two aboutb yourself. You might even decide wheater or not you'd care to return I will be standing in the doorway. Any questions?" Johnson says. Nobody answers until Charles says something. "Yeah, I have a question. Does Barry Manilow know that you raid his wardobe?" Charles says, being a smartass.

"You'll get the answer to that question, Mr. Caldwell, next saturday" Johnson says, and walks out of the room.
