action
One class surprisingly receives a substitute teacher. He immediately confiscated a ball that a fat student and his friends had played soccer with. The student asks to get the ball back because Del Piero signed it. The teacher keeps the ball and acts very unusually during the lesson. With exaggerated facial expressions and gestures, he eats a donut that belongs to the fat one, shows the biggest slipper among the students how well he can imitate a snake - the boy only gets a 3 for his skills - and the worst student in the class a goat imitate what he received the best grade 9 for. The students realize that if they do the unusual prompts well, they can quickly get a good grade and they all want to be next. Only one student keeps aloof and writes a poem. Although the teacher wants the poem, she refuses to hand it over (“No!”). When the fat man offers to get the poem to return the ball, the teacher instructs the class to chase the fat man. He takes refuge in a closet until suddenly another teacher appears in the classroom. He asks the teacher who he is, and he escapes through the window.
It turns out that he is an employee who has his office directly opposite the school and has briefly broken out of his everyday life to implement a spontaneous childish idea. A distinguished businessman is already waiting in his office to watch a presentation from the man. The business negotiations begin when suddenly the fat man stands in the door and demands the return of the ball from the man, which was finally signed by Del Piero. He offers the man to imitate various animals in order to finally get the ball. The man pretends to throw the ball on the street and the fat man runs off. The important business partner, whom the man has annoyed by being late, is interested in the ball. It is becoming clear that if he received the ball, the negotiations would be greatly simplified. Because the ball means a lot to the student, the man refuses ("No!").
