Bridgett Newton: Ms. Tidy

Quotes 

• Ms. Tidy : [in class]  We're ready when you are, Kaitlin.

  Kaitlin Cooper : [the speech that Will supplied is only a jumbled mess]  Miss Tidy, there's... there's been some kind of a mix-up,

  [as Will is beaming at her] 

  Kaitlin Cooper : and Will here...

  Ms. Tidy : [impatiently]  No excuses, Kaitlin, let's go.

  Kaitlin Cooper : [going to make a try of this to show them all, but waffling]  Buck is, like, this spoiled and pampered dog who lives the sweet life in a big house in California.

  [coming from her, that sounds all too familiar to the class] 

  Kaitlin Cooper : And also he's got really pretty hair.

  [as teacher, Will and rest of class do not go for this autobiographical story, she sighs] 

  Kaitlin Cooper : Then one day, like the book says, the facts of life take a fiercer aspect, and things just kind of start to suck. Buck goes through so much crap that he goes to live with some wolves. And he'd rather kill for his own food than talk to other people. I mean, not talk to other people, because he's a dog and he doesn't...

  [class is getting fed up with her tale, especially Will] 

  Kaitlin Cooper : You guys know that.

  [regains some composure] 

  Kaitlin Cooper : I think that... that Buck's story is kind of like a metaphor... a metaphor for being a teenager.

  [onlookers starting to see it her way, Will too] 

  Kaitlin Cooper : Just like, the more crap you go through, the more you kind of wanna be alone.
