Ted tells his parents he did poorly on his chemistry test. They tell him he needs to get serious and study more.

　　Susan: How was your day at school today, Ted?

　　Ted: Bad. I had a chemistry test, and I blew it!

　　Susan: Maybe if you didn't cut class so often, you'd do better.

　　Bob: That's right, son. Stop slacking off and start hitting the books!

　　Ted: But I can't stand chemistry class. Besides, it's a lost cause. That class is way over my head.

　　Susan: You need to buckle down.

　　Ted: When I'm a famous musician, people won't give a hoot about my knowledge of atoms and molecules.

　　Bob: That's beside the point.

　　Susan: We know you have your heart set on going to New York University.

　　Bob: And you don't stand a chance of getting in there with such poor grades!
