First Day of School!



Following excerpt of Finding Nemo is from IMSDb.

NEMO

First day of school! First day of school! Wake up, wake up! C'mon,
first day of school!

MARLIN

I don't wanna go to school. Five more minutes.

NEMO

Not you, dad. Me!


MARLIN
Okay...huh?

NEMO

Get up, get up! It's time for school! It's time for school!
It's time for school! It's time for school! Oh boy! Oh boy!



MARLIN

All right, I'm up.



NEMO

Oh boy--whoa!



MARLIN

Nemo!



NEMO
First day of school!

MARLIN

[gasps] Nemo, don't move! Don't move! You'll never get out of there yourself.
I'll do it. All right, where's the break? You feel a break?



NEMO
No.

MARLIN
Sometimes you can't tell 'cause fluid is rushing to the area. Now, any rushing
fluids?

NEMO
No.

MARLIN
Are you woozy?

NEMO
No.

MARLIN
How many stripes do I have?

NEMO
I'm fine.

MARLIN
Answer the stripe question!

NEMO
Three.

MARLIN

No! See, something's wrong with you. I have one, two, three--that's all I have? Oh, you're okay. How's the lucky fin?



NEMO
Lucky.

MARLIN
Let's see.

MARLIN

Are you sure you wanna go to school this year? 'Cause there's no problem if
you don't. You can wait 5 or 6 years.



NEMO
Come on, dad. It's time for school.

MARLIN
Ah-ah-ah! Forgot to brush.

NEMO
Ohh...

MARLIN
Do you want this anemone to sting you?

NEMO
Yes.

MARLIN
Brush.

NEMO
Okay, I'm done.

MARLIN
You missed a spot.

NEMO
Where?

MARLIN
There. Ha ha! Right there. And here and here and here!

MARLIN

All right, we're excited. First day of school, here we go. We're ready to learn, to get some knowledge. Now, what's the one thing we have to remember
about the ocean?



NEMO
It's not safe.

MARLIN

That's my boy. So, first we check to see that the coast is clear. We go out and back in. And then we go out, and back in. And then one more time--out and
back in. And sometimes, if you wanna do it four times--



NEMO
Dad..

MARLIN
All right. Come on, boy.
