[Danielle, Giovanni and Max enter the classroom, with Giovanni holding Danielle's handbag]
Giovanni Capello : [to Max] Eh, next time you carry the handbag, huh?

[Max wolf-whistles]
Juan Cervantes : [nudging Giovanni] Hey, give me a kiss!
Giovanni Capello : [hits Juan with Danielle's handbag, walks off, and hands it to her] Your hand-a bag.
Danielle Favre : Thank you Giovanni.
Ranjeet Singh : [to Danielle] You just missed it!
Anna Schmidt : We are having our photographs taken by Taro.
Danielle Favre : [intrigued] Taro. I would very much like you to take a photograph of me.
Giovanni Capello : [approaches Danielle] Eh, I take-a your picture.
Danielle Favre : You have not a camera.
Giovanni Capello : Sure I got a camera at home. You come back with me after the class, and we take lots of pictures. And then we can see what develops. Eh? what you say?

[Mr. Brown asks each member of the class a question from the blackboard, based on their homework]
Jeremy Brown : All right now, Ranjeet, question 2. Name the three classes of gender, and give an example of each.
Ranjeet Singh : [stands and puts hands together] Thousand apologies, but I have answered the question with nothing.
Jeremy Brown : You mean you haven't answered the question?
Ranjeet Singh : That is the gist of what I am saying. I am not comprehending the meaning of the word 'gender'.
Jeremy Brown : Gender is the grammatical classification of the sex of proper nouns.
Ranjeet Singh : [slightly confused] But we are learning about English, not about sex!
Danielle Favre : [turns to Ranjeet] You cannot learn sex from books Ranjeet, you either have it or you don't have it.
Giovanni Capello : [to Ranjeet, smirking] I have it, I know all about sex.
Maximillian Papandrious : [puts hand on Anna's and grins] Me too!
[Anna says nothing and smacks him for being rude]
Jeremy Brown : [to the class] Yes well may I remind you that we are not here to discuss sex.
Danielle Favre : Why not? it is a very interesting subject.
Jeremy Brown : Yes I'm aware of that, but there's a time and a place for everything.
Danielle Favre : [smiling at Mr. Brown] You tell me the time and the place, and I shall be there.
[approving whistle from Giovanni at Danielle's seductive suggestion to Mr. Brown]
