On My Own
(via forever90s)
Mr. Feeny: What?
Cory: We’re leaving.
Mr. Feeny: I know.
Topanga: We wanted to know if you had anything else left to teach us.
Mr. Feeny: No. My work with you is done.
Shawn: I donno…it’s pretty scary. Goin’ into a whole new world.
Mr. Feeny: And you are ready to go into that world.
Eric: Even me?
Mr. Feeny: Even you. [pauses] Believe in yourselves. Dream. Try. Do good.
Topanga: Don’t you mean do well?
Mr. Feeny: No, I mean do good.
Eric: Well, I guess there’s just one thing left, then. Tell us you love us.
Mr. Feeny: Now, look. If there’s one thing I’ve taught you is that there is a line between teacher and student that must never be crossed.
Eric: Tell us you love us.
Mr. Feeny: I regard all my students equally.
Shawn: Oh, you know we’re your favorites.
Cory: C’mon Feeny. You haven’t even talked to another student for 7 years I mean (you might as well) (covered by laughter)…
Eric: TELL US YOU LOVE US!
Mr. Feeny: I surely will not.
Eric: Okay for you, then.
(Topanga hugs Feeny, crying.)
Topanga: I will NEVER forget you. You were more of a father to me than my own dad.
(Topanga walks out)
Shawn: You, uh…never gave up on me. Never once. I’m, uh, I’m not gonna forget you. You’re the best person I know. (Hugs Feeny who is expecting a handshake. Shawn leaves the room.)
Eric: I don’t know what’s gonna happen to me. But I do know that I’m gonna be a good person who cares about people. And I blame you for that. (Shakes Feeny’s hand, who is expecting a hug. Then he walks back and hugs him and then leaves the room)
Mr. Feeny: So, Mr Mathews.
Cory: You think we know each other long enough for you to call me Cory?
Mr. Feeny: I think we know each other long enough for me to call you Cornelius.
Cory: Shhhh! Mr Feeny, c’m—not even Topanga knows that!
Mr. Feeny: Your secret is safe with me.
Cory: Well, I got Topanga to go to New York.
Mr. Feeny: Good for you.
Cory: She’s not even scared anymore.
Mr. Feeny: Nor should she be.
Cory: (Pause) I am.
Mr. Feeny: Well, you have a right to be. (Hugs Cory)
Cory: You comin’ with us, Mr. Feeny? You gonna sneak up on us in Central Park or something?
Mr. Feeny: No, I shall remain here.
Cory: No, you’ll always be with us. As long as we live, okay? (Walks out of room)
(Everyone’s gone.)
Mr. Feeny. I love you all. Class dismissed.i just cried…
I loose it every time I watch this!!
“I love you all. Class dismissed.”
I cry every single damn time.

“Mom, listen, I haven’t been together with topanga for 22 years, but we have been together for 16. That’s a lot longer than most couples have been together. I mean, when we were born, you told me that we used to take walks in our strollers together around the block. When we were two, we were best friends. I mean, I knew everything about this girl. I knew her favorite color, her favorite food. Then we became six, Eric made fun of me because it wasn’t cool to have a best friend that was a girl or even know a girl. So for the next seven years I threw dirt at her. I like to call those “the lost years”. Then when I was thirteen, mom, she put me up against my locker and she kissed me. I mean, she gave me my first kiss. She taught me how to dance. She always was talking about these crazy things and I never understood a word she said. All I understood was that she was the girl I sat up every night thinking about, and when I’m with her, I feel happy to be alive. Like I can do anything. Even talk to you like this. So that’s, that’s what i think is love, mom.. When I’m better because she’s here.”
