- That teacher's here with those kids. - What?
That teacher you talked to on the phone, about coming in, having a tour.
Oh, God, that's today?
- They're here. - Oh, no.
Okay, uh, just pretend that you're me and take them around and... Hi.
- There they are. - Ben Wrightman. We talked on the phone.
- Nice to meet you. - Yes, yes, I've been waiting for you.
Hi, I'm Lindsey Meeks.
Excuse me.
Can I get anyone something to drink?
Vodka martini, straight up. Three olives, please.
Hey, I asked you to behave.
Uh, are you allowed to hit them?
Yeah, actually. Do you wanna take a swipe at him?
I'll hold him if you want.
- Maybe later. - Uh, okay, as I said on the phone, Lindsey,
I teach honors geometry, ninth grade.
And every year I pick a few promising math students
to meet someone who's pursued mathematics as an educational discipline
and has made practical use of that education.
So, thanks for having us.
All right, the client I'm working for right now
is this really cool company called Marquis Jet,
and they're trying to figure out how to make
renting private jets more affordable.
Wow. Now that's the way to go.
Yeah, and they're growing like crazy,
so they'd have to buy more jets in order to meet the demands.
Now let me ask you guys a crazy question.
Are any of you in the habit of looking at numbers,
you know, addresses, license plates, phone numbers, and adding them up
and rearranging them in your head to make more interesting patterns?
Oh, my God, she knows my secret shame.
Well, step into the light, my friend, because this is the church of numbers,
and every day is Sunday.
- She was a major hottie. - Major?
- Colonel hottie. - Yeah, she went optic for you, Mr. Wrightman.
- Optic? - Yeah, I saw her glance to the pants.
- No way. - Yeah.
What do you mean?
- I mean she was totally... - No, no, not you.
You. What, what did you mean?
Nothin', you know.
Well, come on, man. You saw her.
Are you saying that she's out of my league?
She is bringing some serious heat, man.
I don't know if you got the bat speed.
Oh, I got the bat speed.
I got plenty of bat speed. I could hit her best cheese.
