HE'S LOSING CONTROL,

WAS TALKIN' ABOUT.
THIS IS THE POWER OF THE PRESS.
EXPOSING CORRUPTION,
UNSEATING THE MIGHTY

SEE, HE'S OUT OF CONTROL AGAIN.
THANK YOU, ARNOLD,
HOW THIS ELEPHANT
GOT MY PAJAMAS, I'LL NEVER KNOW.
OH, YES.
USED BY A WOMAN ONCE AGAIN.
WELL, LOOK, YOU'RE A VERY
INTERESTING GROUP OF KIDS
AND I'D LOVE TO GO ON
TALKIN TO YA FOREVER,
BUT IT'S TIME THE PLAY
LET'S GO TO SCHOOL.
I SEARCHED HERE,
AND I SEARCHED THERE.
I'M SEARCHIN' FOR
MY SHANGHAIED ALE.
HELLO.
HOW ARE YA?
I'M ARNOLD HORSHACK.
NOW THIS IS EPSTEIN, THE
REFRIED MATZO BALL KING.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING, KOTTER?
GROUCHO.
♪
WELL, MY MEMORY IS
EXCELLENT, MR. KOTTER,
AND I NEVER WILL FORGET THE TIME
YOU HELPED ME RESCUE MY MANHOOD.
DID I SUCCEED?
ALL MY LIFE, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN
TRYING TO PUSH ME ASIDE.
"ARNOLD, GO TO YOUR ROOM."
"ARNOLD, GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY."
"ARNOLD, WE'LL MEET
YOU AFTER SCHOOL."
MR. KOTTER.
I'M TIRED OF BEING PUSHED ASIDE.
I UNDERSTAND, ARNOLD.
BUT THERE ARE OTHER
WAYS TO PROVE YOU'RE A MAN
BESIDES FIGHTING A
BIG STARK LIKE CARVELLI.
MR. KOTTER, SOMETIMES A MAN
HAS TO STAND UP FOR HIMSELF,
EVEN THOUGH HE
KNOWS HE'S GONNA LAND
FLAT ON HIS BACK.
HAVEN'T YOU EVER FELT LIKE THAT?
ARNOLD, IF YOU REALLY THINK
THAT YOU HAVE TO DO THIS,
I'M BEHIND YOU.
MR. KOTTER, HOW CAN I TAKE
THIS REPORT CARD HOME
AND SHOW IT TO MY MOTHER?
THAT WOMAN'S A SAINT.
I REMEMBER, YOUR
MOTHER THE SAINT.
YOU'RE GONNA BE UPSET, HUH?
YOU PROBABLY GOT NO
IDEA WHAT IT FEELS LIKE
TO GET HIT WITH BEADS.
VINNIE.
DO YOU THINK THAT I
ENJOY FAILING YOU?
YEAH. THAT'S HOW YOU
TEACHERS GET YOUR JOLLIES.
WELL, I DON'T.
VINNIE, YOU
SHOULDN'T BE FAILING,
YOU'RE A KID WITH BRAINS.
LOOK, MAN, IF YOU
DON'T GET IT TOGETHER,
YOU'RE GONNA GET LEFT BACK.
HOW WOULD YOUR MOTHER LIKE THAT?
OH, NO, SHE WOULDN'T LIKE THAT.
VINNIE, I WANT TO HELP YOU,
I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
HEY, HOW ABOUT IF
I GOT YOU A TUTOR?
SOMEBODY TO WORK
WITH YOU AFTER SCHOOL?
HEY, BELIEVE ME, IT'S
NOT GONNA BE THAT BAD.
ALL RIGHT.
BUT IS THERE ANY
WAY WE COULD DO THIS
WITHOUT BOOKS?
YOU KNOW WHAT I SEE
WHEN I LOOK AT YOU?
I SEE A SENSITIVE,
BRIGHT, ENERGETIC KID
THAT HAS A LOT MORE
GOIN' FOR HIM THAN MUSCLE.
YOU SEE THAT? WHERE?
WHERE'S THAT GUY, SHOW ME WHERE.
I'LL SHOW YOU WHERE THAT GUY IS.
THAT GUY IS IN HERE.
AND THAT GUY IS IN HERE.
YEAH, WELL, HOW
ABOUT RIGHT HERE?
THERE'S NOTHING IN THERE, JUAN.
IT'S EMPTY.
NOTHING.
THOUGH YOU A RE GOING TO
MEET A TALL, DARK STRANGER.
FACE IT WASHINGTON,
YOU'RE NOT THAT GOOD.
THERE ARE GUYS
RIGHT HERE IN BUCHANAN
WHO ARE BETTER THAN YOU.
- LIKE WHO?
- WHO?
- WHO?
- WHO?
ME.
YOU?
HEY, MAN, YOU BETTER STAY
AWAY FROM THAT BLACKBOARD,
I THINK YOU MUST HAVE SNIFFED
TOO MUCH OF THAT CHALK DUST.
HEY, I'M SERIOUS, FREDDIE,
BASKETBALL'S MY GAME.
AND I'M CHALLENGING
YOU, ONE ON ONE.
JUST YOU, ME, AND
THE BASKETBALL COURT.
HEY, MR. KOTTER, I MEAN,
YOU OUTTA SHAPE, MAN,
DIG YOURSELF, MAN.
IF YOU WAS A BUILDING,
YOU'D BE CONDEMNED.
3:15 TODAY, 20-POINT GAME.
OKAY MR. KAMIKAZE.
WHY DON'T YOU PUT YOUR
MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS?
TWENTY BUCKS SAY I WIN.
HEY, YOU KNOW I'M NOT
GONNA PLAY YOU FOR MONEY.
HEY, I TELL YOU
WHAT I'M GONNA DO.
IF I WIN, YOU TAKE
THE MAKE-UP TEST.
AND IF I WIN, YOU PASS ME.
I CAN'T DO THAT.
HEY, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING,
MAN, YOU THE TEACHER.
YOU GOT A BET.
OKAY, TAKE IT EASY, TIGER.
GET YOUR WIND BACK,
YOU'LL BE ALL RIGHT
IN A MINUTE.
WHY?
WHAT'S THAT NOISE, KOTTER?
REENA, OY!
IT'S MY FATHER'S NOISE.
HEY, COACH, IS MR. KOTTER HERE?
YES, HE'S ON THE
COUCH, LYING IN STATE.
HEY, YOU MIND IF I
TALK TO HIM ALONE
FOR A MINUTE?
NOT AT ALL, BUT
YOU BETTER HURRY.
I DON'T THINK HE
HAS MUCH MORE TIME.
HI THERE.
LEAST YOU COULD DO IS SWEAT.
I DID.
HEY, LOOK, I'M READY TO
TAKE THAT MAKE-UP TEST
IF YOU STILL WANT ME TO.
HEY, I'M NOT WELSHER.
YOU WIN.
YOU BEAT ME 20 TO 16, YOU PASS.
NO, MAN, THAT WAS NO BEAT
MAN, YOU SCORED 16 POINTS
OFF OF ME, I MEAN, YOU.
YOU TWICE MY AGE, MAN.
I MEAN, YOU OLD
ENOUGH TO BE MY...
OLDER COUSIN.
LOOK, I'VE BEEN THINKING.
MAYBE I DON'T HAVE THAT CONTRACT
ALL SEWN UP WITH THE KNICKS YET.
I JUST THINK I'D BETTER
BE COVERIN' ALL MY BASES.
THINK THAT'S A
SMART MOVE, FREDDIE.
YOU KNOW, MAN,
YOU SOMETHING ELSE.
I MEAN, YOU REALLY SURPRISED
ME DOWN THERE TODAY.
YEAH?
YEAH, YOU STILL
PLAY PRETTY GOOD,
YOU STILL GOT IT.
YEAH, I GOT IT.
BUT I CAN'T GET
IT OFF THE COUCH.
THAT WAS A REAL NICE THING
YOU DID, YOU KNOW THAT?
I CAN'T THINK OF ANYBODY
ELSE WHO COULD'VE,
LIKE, YOU KNOW, LIKE,
DONE THAT KIND OF THING
WITH OUR TALENTS.
HEY, YOU KNOW, IT'S MUTUAL.
I LEARN A LOT FROM
YOU GUYS, TOO.
IT'S LIKE ONE HAND
WASHES THE OTHER.
NOT IN MY FAMILY.
HEY, LISTEN, THANKS
TO THE SWEATHOGS,
I'M HERE TODAY.
REMEMBER THE DAY
I ALMOST GOT FIRED?
OH, YEAH.
AH, WHAT A WONDERFUL
DAY THAT WAS.
I THINK THAT THEY
SHOULD BE HERE.
MAKE WAY FOR THE
PAINTING PAINTER MEN.
JUST A MOMENT.
THERE'S A MEETING GOING ON HERE.
HEY, MAKA.
WHEN YOU HIRE THE
LINGUINI BROTHERS
TO WORK, THE LINGUINI
BROTHERS WILL WORK.
THAT'S RIGHT, GUIDO.
THIS IS ABSURD, WHAT
COULD BE MORE RIDICULOUS
THAN THIS?
♪ DA, DA-DA-DA ♪
KOTTER.
I KNOW THAT FACE.
WHAT?
THAT'S YOU, BARBARINO!
WHERE?
BARBARINO.
ARE IN THERE ALONE?
MR. KOTTER.
ARE THESE YOUR STUDENTS?
YES, THESE ARE MY SWEATHOGS.
THAT'S MO, LARRY, CURLY.
AND THAT'S RAQUEL.
MR. KOTTER, IS THERE ANYTHING
YOU'D LIKE TO SAY
IN YOUR OWN BEHALF?
CERTAINLY.
MS. REILLY, I'M A TEACHER.
THAT'S WHAT IT
SAYS ON MY LOCKER.
"MR. KOTTER, TEACHER."
AND I'M TEACHIN' A GROUP OF KIDS
KNOWN AS SWEATHOGS.
NOW CONTRARY TO POPULAR OPINION,
SWEATHOGS ARE NOT DUMB.
I MEAN, A DUMB PERSON
DOES NOT THINK OF A WAY
TO MAKE IT RAIN
IN THE GYMNASIUM.
I DID THAT.
UNFORTUNATELY, NORMAL
TEACHING METHODS
DON'T SEEM TO
WORK FOR THESE KIDS.
I MEAN, IF THEY DID, WELL,
THEN THEY WOULDN'T BE SWEATHOGS.
DON'T YOU SEE?
THEY'RE GONNA HAVE
TO SURVIVE IN THE WORLD
OF THE FUTURE.
AND IF THEY LEARN HOW TO LEARN,
WELL THEN THEY'LL BE
ABLE TO SURVIVE ANYWHERE.

AND I'D LOVE TO GO ON
TALKIN TO YA FOREVER,
BUT IT'S TIME THE PLAY
LET'S GO TO SCHOOL.
I SEARCHED HERE,
AND I SEARCHED THERE.
I'M SEARCHIN' FOR
MY SHANGHAIED ALE.
HELLO.
HOW ARE YA?
I'M ARNOLD HORSHACK.
NOW THIS IS EPSTEIN, THE
REFRIED MATZO BALL KING.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING, KOTTER?
GROUCHO.
♪
WELL, MY MEMORY IS
EXCELLENT, MR. KOTTER,
AND I NEVER WILL FORGET THE TIME
YOU HELPED ME RESCUE MY MANHOOD.
DID I SUCCEED?
ALL MY LIFE, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN
TRYING TO PUSH ME ASIDE.
"ARNOLD, GO TO YOUR ROOM."
"ARNOLD, GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY."
"ARNOLD, WE'LL MEET
YOU AFTER SCHOOL."
MR. KOTTER.
I'M TIRED OF BEING PUSHED ASIDE.
I UNDERSTAND, ARNOLD.
BUT THERE ARE OTHER
WAYS TO PROVE YOU'RE A MAN
BESIDES FIGHTING A
BIG STARK LIKE CARVELLI.
MR. KOTTER, SOMETIMES A MAN
HAS TO STAND UP FOR HIMSELF,
EVEN THOUGH HE
KNOWS HE'S GONNA LAND
FLAT ON HIS BACK.
HAVEN'T YOU EVER FELT LIKE THAT?
ARNOLD, IF YOU REALLY THINK
THAT YOU HAVE TO DO THIS,
I'M BEHIND YOU.
MR. KOTTER, HOW CAN I TAKE
THIS REPORT CARD HOME
AND SHOW IT TO MY MOTHER?
THAT WOMAN'S A SAINT.
I REMEMBER, YOUR
MOTHER THE SAINT.
YOU'RE GONNA BE UPSET, HUH?
YOU PROBABLY GOT NO
IDEA WHAT IT FEELS LIKE
TO GET HIT WITH BEADS.
VINNIE.
DO YOU THINK THAT I
ENJOY FAILING YOU?
YEAH. THAT'S HOW YOU
TEACHERS GET YOUR JOLLIES.
WELL, I DON'T.
VINNIE, YOU
SHOULDN'T BE FAILING,
YOU'RE A KID WITH BRAINS.
LOOK, MAN, IF YOU
DON'T GET IT TOGETHER,
YOU'RE GONNA GET LEFT BACK.
HOW WOULD YOUR MOTHER LIKE THAT?
OH, NO, SHE WOULDN'T LIKE THAT.
VINNIE, I WANT TO HELP YOU,
I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
HEY, HOW ABOUT IF
I GOT YOU A TUTOR?
SOMEBODY TO WORK
WITH YOU AFTER SCHOOL?
HEY, BELIEVE ME, IT'S
NOT GONNA BE THAT BAD.
ALL RIGHT.
BUT IS THERE ANY
WAY WE COULD DO THIS
WITHOUT BOOKS?
YOU KNOW WHAT I SEE
WHEN I LOOK AT YOU?
I SEE A SENSITIVE,
BRIGHT, ENERGETIC KID
THAT HAS A LOT MORE
GOIN' FOR HIM THAN MUSCLE.
YOU SEE THAT? WHERE?
WHERE'S THAT GUY, SHOW ME WHERE.
I'LL SHOW YOU WHERE THAT GUY IS.
THAT GUY IS IN HERE.
AND THAT GUY IS IN HERE.
YEAH, WELL, HOW
ABOUT RIGHT HERE?
THERE'S NOTHING IN THERE, JUAN.
IT'S EMPTY.
NOTHING.
THOUGH YOU A RE GOING TO
MEET A TALL, DARK STRANGER.
FACE IT WASHINGTON,
YOU'RE NOT THAT GOOD.
THERE ARE GUYS
RIGHT HERE IN BUCHANAN
WHO ARE BETTER THAN YOU.
- LIKE WHO?
- WHO?
- WHO?
- WHO?
ME.
YOU?
HEY, MAN, YOU BETTER STAY
AWAY FROM THAT BLACKBOARD,
I THINK YOU MUST HAVE SNIFFED
TOO MUCH OF THAT CHALK DUST.
HEY, I'M SERIOUS, FREDDIE,
BASKETBALL'S MY GAME.
AND I'M CHALLENGING
YOU, ONE ON ONE.
JUST YOU, ME, AND
THE BASKETBALL COURT.
HEY, MR. KOTTER, I MEAN,
YOU OUTTA SHAPE, MAN,
DIG YOURSELF, MAN.
IF YOU WAS A BUILDING,
YOU'D BE CONDEMNED.
3:15 TODAY, 20-POINT GAME.
OKAY MR. KAMIKAZE.
WHY DON'T YOU PUT YOUR
MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS?
TWENTY BUCKS SAY I WIN.
HEY, YOU KNOW I'M NOT
GONNA PLAY YOU FOR MONEY.
HEY, I TELL YOU
WHAT I'M GONNA DO.
IF I WIN, YOU TAKE
THE MAKE-UP TEST.
AND IF I WIN, YOU PASS ME.
I CAN'T DO THAT.
HEY, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING,
MAN, YOU THE TEACHER.
YOU GOT A BET.
OKAY, TAKE IT EASY, TIGER.
GET YOUR WIND BACK,
YOU'LL BE ALL RIGHT
IN A MINUTE.
WHY?
WHAT'S THAT NOISE, KOTTER?
REENA, OY!
IT'S MY FATHER'S NOISE.
HEY, COACH, IS MR. KOTTER HERE?
YES, HE'S ON THE
COUCH, LYING IN STATE.
HEY, YOU MIND IF I
TALK TO HIM ALONE
FOR A MINUTE?
NOT AT ALL, BUT
YOU BETTER HURRY.
I DON'T THINK HE
HAS MUCH MORE TIME.
HI THERE.
LEAST YOU COULD DO IS SWEAT.
I DID.
HEY, LOOK, I'M READY TO
TAKE THAT MAKE-UP TEST
IF YOU STILL WANT ME TO.
HEY, I'M NOT WELSHER.
YOU WIN.
YOU BEAT ME 20 TO 16, YOU PASS.
NO, MAN, THAT WAS NO BEAT
MAN, YOU SCORED 16 POINTS
OFF OF ME, I MEAN, YOU.
YOU TWICE MY AGE, MAN.
I MEAN, YOU OLD
ENOUGH TO BE MY...
OLDER COUSIN.
LOOK, I'VE BEEN THINKING.
MAYBE I DON'T HAVE THAT CONTRACT
ALL SEWN UP WITH THE KNICKS YET.
I JUST THINK I'D BETTER
BE COVERIN' ALL MY BASES.
THINK THAT'S A
SMART MOVE, FREDDIE.
YOU KNOW, MAN,
YOU SOMETHING ELSE.
I MEAN, YOU REALLY SURPRISED
ME DOWN THERE TODAY.
YEAH?
YEAH, YOU STILL
PLAY PRETTY GOOD,
YOU STILL GOT IT.
YEAH, I GOT IT.
BUT I CAN'T GET
IT OFF THE COUCH.
THAT WAS A REAL NICE THING
YOU DID, YOU KNOW THAT?
I CAN'T THINK OF ANYBODY
ELSE WHO COULD'VE,
LIKE, YOU KNOW, LIKE,
DONE THAT KIND OF THING
WITH OUR TALENTS.
HEY, YOU KNOW, IT'S MUTUAL.
I LEARN A LOT FROM
YOU GUYS, TOO.
IT'S LIKE ONE HAND
WASHES THE OTHER.
NOT IN MY FAMILY.
HEY, LISTEN, THANKS
TO THE SWEATHOGS,
I'M HERE TODAY.
REMEMBER THE DAY
I ALMOST GOT FIRED?
OH, YEAH.
AH, WHAT A WONDERFUL
DAY THAT WAS.
I THINK THAT THEY
SHOULD BE HERE.
MAKE WAY FOR THE
PAINTING PAINTER MEN.
JUST A MOMENT.
THERE'S A MEETING GOING ON HERE.
HEY, MAKA.
WHEN YOU HIRE THE
LINGUINI BROTHERS
TO WORK, THE LINGUINI
BROTHERS WILL WORK.
THAT'S RIGHT, GUIDO.
THIS IS ABSURD, WHAT
COULD BE MORE RIDICULOUS
THAN THIS?
♪ DA, DA-DA-DA ♪
KOTTER.
I KNOW THAT FACE.
WHAT?
THAT'S YOU, BARBARINO!
WHERE?
BARBARINO.
ARE IN THERE ALONE?
MR. KOTTER.
ARE THESE YOUR STUDENTS?
YES, THESE ARE MY SWEATHOGS.
THAT'S MO, LARRY, CURLY.
AND THAT'S RAQUEL.
MR. KOTTER, IS THERE ANYTHING
YOU'D LIKE TO SAY
IN YOUR OWN BEHALF?
CERTAINLY.
MS. REILLY, I'M A TEACHER.
THAT'S WHAT IT
SAYS ON MY LOCKER.
"MR. KOTTER, TEACHER."
AND I'M TEACHIN' A GROUP OF KIDS
KNOWN AS SWEATHOGS.
NOW CONTRARY TO POPULAR OPINION,
SWEATHOGS ARE NOT DUMB.
I MEAN, A DUMB PERSON
DOES NOT THINK OF A WAY
TO MAKE IT RAIN
IN THE GYMNASIUM.
I DID THAT.
UNFORTUNATELY, NORMAL
TEACHING METHODS
DON'T SEEM TO
WORK FOR THESE KIDS.
I MEAN, IF THEY DID, WELL,
THEN THEY WOULDN'T BE SWEATHOGS.
DON'T YOU SEE?
THEY'RE GONNA HAVE
TO SURVIVE IN THE WORLD
OF THE FUTURE.
AND IF THEY LEARN HOW TO LEARN,
WELL THEN THEY'LL BE
ABLE TO SURVIVE ANYWHERE.

WELL, YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE.
WELL, WE DIDN'T.
