• Dr. Nelson Guggenheim: We're putting you on what we call sudden death academic probation.
  • Max Fischer: And what does that entail?
  • Dr. Nelson Guggenheim: It entails that if you fail another class, you'll be asked to leave Rushmore.
  • Max Fischer: In other words, I'll be expelled.
  • Dr. Nelson Guggenheim: That's correct.
  • Max Fischer: Can I see some documentation on that, please?

  • Dr. Nelson Guggenheim: Too many extracurricular activities, Max. Not enough studying
  • Max Fischer: Dr. Guggenheim, I don't want to tell you how to do your job. But the fact is, no matter how hard I try, I still might flunk another class. If that means I have to stay on for a post-graduate year, so be it...
  • Dr. Nelson Guggenheim: - We don't offer a post-graduate year.
  • Max Fischer: Well, we don't offer it yet.
