//Analysis 1A is learning to take the derivative of exponentials Rose: Nicole Choi, you're like one of those people who goes into the forest and gathers beetles. Every time you encounter a new beetle, you just pull out your little book of photos and see if it looks kind of like a beetle you've seen before. That's not going to work here. This is a new beetle.

Student: So you're the one they're calling Mr. Rose's son, eh? PBE: Yeah.  I think of it more as being like Boba Fett and Jango Fett in Star Wars.  You know, a partially aged clone.

PBE: Yeah Rose: You know how I know?  'Cause you have ash on your face!  [laughs]   //Later... Rose: We'll have to do something during this class [Mag Geo] to top that. PBE: Flaming triangles!

//Giles is teaching Euler's Method for differential equations when Rose walks in //Giles is doing the whole thing out on the board. Rose: You should make a chart. Do you know how to make a chart? Giles: Yes, but I like teaching them to understand it first. Rose: It makes things so much simpler. //Giles keeps writing on board while Rose makes chart on paper Giles (to class): And that's the Euler's method. It's really annoying and we're never going to do it out like this ever again. Rose: And now you can make a chart. //class laughs Rose (pauses): Thanks, by the way. I never really understood how the Euler's Method worked. Giles: (!) You never understood how Euler's worked? Rose: Yeah. I always made a chart. It just made things simpler. Giles: ... //turns to board Giles (to class) : We're going to make a chart.
