听美剧学英语:《淘小子看世界》 Notorious - 9

（单词翻译）

I'm sorry, I can't do that.
You've thought about this, and that's your final decision?
Yeah.
You've decided¹ that protecting a friendship is more important than the grisly punishment I shall now dispense².
Mr. Feeny, he didn't mean to hurt anyone. He just wanted to do something that would make him somebody special.
Ah, to be somebody special is a quality from within. Mr. Matthews, to give you an example, I think it's a very rare quality for you to put a friend's welfare before your own.
But just a second ago, you wanted me to rat on him.
As the new principal, yes, but as your teacher, as someone who lived next door and watched you grow up, I never expected it for a moment.

So, how long am I suspended for?
You are not, detention³ for five days, one day for each letter in Weeny, which in this instance, should properly be spelled W-e-e-n-i-e, shouldn't it, Mr. Hunter?
You told him?
What do you think?
I think you wouldn't. I am an idiot.
He refused to rat you out, Mr. Hunter. And he now faces a week of detention in your honor. But the punishment for not being caught, Mr. Hunter, is far far worse.
I did it, Mr. Feeny. I confess.
I will be watching you every moment of your high school career, which in your case could be decades.
But I just confessed.
Too late, Mr. Hunter.
You are my new special friend.
Why didn't you turn me in?
