You'll Never Ever Get A Chicken In Your Whole Entire Life [7.07]
- [Frank and Liam arrive at his school for the first day only to discover the school deserted]
- Frank:Holy shit. Place is a ghost town. I think someone's in there.
- [Knocks on door]
- Custodian:I'm coming, I'm coming. [Opens door] What's going on? They sent out letters letting folks know the school was closed.
- Frank:Why?
- Custodian:Not enough kids to keep the place open.
- Frank:Since when?
- Custodian:Since the new private school opened up. Bourgie parents sending their kids over there now.
- Frank:A private school in this neighborhood?
- Custodian:A lot of new money moving into the Yards. Bunch of Richie Riches.
- Frank:Where's my son supposed to go?
- Custodian:Oh, they're bussing kids over to Lincoln Douglas Elementary.
- Frank:That's a 30-minute bus ride.
- Custodian:Not counting the stops. Probably overcrowded. Forty kids to a class, I hear.
- Frank:So this private school, where is it?
- Custodian:Took over the Blessed Virgin from the Dioceses.
- Frank:The B... I went there. The archbishop sold it? What happened to the nuns?
- Custodian:Ah, they shipped them off to assisted living. They were all a couple of hundred years old. Not enough poor kids in the neighborhood to keep the doors open.
- ...
- Liam:Whoa. Oh, cool. Chickens.
- Frank:Go play with them, son.
- Teacher:Excuse me. Hey.
- Frank:Why aren't you going to public school? Afraid of being exposed to regular kids?
- Teacher:I'm sorry?
- Frank:Is it because my son is poor? Or black?
- Teacher:Children, let's go inside.
- Frank:The public-school system is being gutted by you sending your kid to this expensive private school.
- Teacher:Please, sir.
- Frank:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You'll pay taxes to support public schools...
- Teacher:Don't listen to him. Let's go.
- Frank:But God forbid you or your husband, or your wife, would actually send your child to one.
- Teacher:Sir, this is private property. You need to leave.
- Frank: This is just the 21st-century version of segregation.
- Teacher:I'm gonna call the police.
- Frank:I'm leaving. Come on, Liam, let's go.
- Liam:Can I have a chicken?
- Frank:No, you can't have a chicken. And do you know why? Because these people don't want you to ever have a chicken. In fact, they've spent thousands of dollars a year so that they can buy up all the chickens in the whole world to guarantee that you will never, ever get a chicken ever in your whole entire life.
