MR. BURLEY
Mr. Burley - Ian Harcourt
Mr. Burley is a teacher at Harwood County High School. It was the first day of school. Mr. Burley places his book bag on his desk and walks to the front of the class. Mr. Burley: "Okay class, let's start the year with a science brain teaser. What species will outlast all others on Earth?" Emma's hand quickly shot up into the air. Mr. Burley: "Emma?" Emma: "Insects. They'll survive all the bad stuff we're doing to the environment. Some of them have lots of legs. They'll be the last ones standing." Noah's hand shot into the air. Jake sat behind his friend, Noah, and leaned forward in the seat. Jake: "Dude, calm down. You're going to hurt yourself." Noah: "She's wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong." Mr. Burley: "Yes Noah. You have a different answer." Noah: "Robots. Robots powered by perpetual motion engines." Gia: "Robots are machines, so technically they're not a species." Jake is smitten with Gia. Jake: "Beautiful and smart." Noah: "And wrong." The door opened and a teen entered the room. Mr. Burley: "Ahh, you must be Troy. Nice of you to join us." Troy makes his way to his desk. Mr. Burley: "Maybe you can answer our brain teaser. What species will survive all others?" Troy had reached his desk and answered the question. Troy: "Us, humans." Mr. Burley: "How's that Troy?" Troy sat down and then answered. Troy: "If humans work together, we can overcome anything." Mr. Burley: "Okay...interesting. I certainly hope Troy's right."
Mr. Burley is passing out pop quizzes to the students. Jake is not happy about it. Jake: "Dude, I hate pop quizzes." Noah: "Stop complaining. Besides you know this stuff." Mr. Burley finished passing out the quizzes and walks to his desk. He faces the class behind his desk. Mr. Burley: "No talking during the test. Come up to see me if you have any questions." Mr. Burley sits down and starts working on his Rubik's cube. The class begins working on their quiz. After awhile, Mr. Burley falls asleep and is snoring softly in his chair. The bell rings. The students start to gather their stuff. The noise abruptly wakes up Mr. Burley and he falls backwards in his chair. Noah sees Mr. Burley fall. Noah: "Mr. Burley!" Noah hurries over to Mr. Burley. Noah: "Are you alright?" Mr. Burley tries to compose himself as he scrambles to stand back up. Mr. Burley: "No, I'm....I'm just fine." He picks up the Rubik's cube off the floor and straightens up to address the class. Mr. Burley: "Have a scienficeric weekend everyone!" Mr. Burley sees the class is empty except for Noah. He hurries out of the class, working on the Rubik's cube. Later, Mr. Burley is sitting at his desk, staring at the Rubik's cube with a magnifying glass. A knock on the door startles him, causing him to drop the Rubik's cube. The door opens and it reveal Noah. Noah: "Mr. Burley?" Mr. Burley: "Oh, hi Noah!" Noah picks up the Rubik's cube. Noah: "You left your scarf in the classroom." Mr. Burley: "Did I? Yes, it certainly sounds like me." Mr. Burley motion with his hands for Noah to hang up the scarf. As Noah hang up the scarf, he noticed the large pictures on the wall. Noah: "Wow. Crypto zoology...ESP...extraterrestrials." Mr. Burley: "Yes, I'm convinced that science will one day find the answer to these great mysteries." Noah: "Me too! I've always been fascinated by this stuff." Mr. Burley stood up in surprise. Mr. Burley: "You have?!" Mr. Burley walked over to Noah. Noah: "Absolutely! The Marfa Lights, the Piri Reis maps, the Jersey Devil." Mr. Burley: "My boy, I have some pictures of the Loch Ness monster that will blow your mind." Mr. Burley hurried off to get the pictures out of his filing cabinet. Mr. Burley is digging through his file cabinet as he and Noah continue to talk about the pictures on the wall. Mr. Burley gets distracted by what he sees out his window. Mr. Burley hurries over to the window, to get a closer look at the flying saucer. Mr. Burley asks Noah if he is seeing this, when he notices that Noah is gone and also his Rubik's cube is solved. Mr. Burley comments, what an extraordinary young man. (The flying saucers turn out to be Yuffo which the Rangers finally destroy with the Gosei Great Megazord.)
Dizchord is in the city, playing his music, which causes everyone a great deal of pain, except for a few. The music reaches Harwood County High School and everyone quickly covers their ears. Mr. Burley dances down the hall. Mr. Burley: "People say that I'm tone deaf, but I know what I like and this music rocks!" Eventually the Rangers destroy Dizchord.
Mr. Burley has his class outside on a field trip. The students are enjoying a day out of the classroom. Mr. Burley: "Okay class." No one is paying him any attention. Mr. Burley: "Okay! Everyone find a study buddy to partnered up with." Noah and Emma glanced at each other and smile. Noah gives a small nod. Jake looks around until he spots Gia. Gia is looking around, but has no one to partner up with. Jake grins and tries to make his way over to Gia. Mr. Burley: "Alright! Your assignment today will be to collect interesting plant samples." Jake accidentally bumps his bucket into another student. Gia glances over. Mr. Burley glares at Jake and then continues. "So that we can bring them back to school." Jake bumps into more students with his bucket, which he then clutches to his chest. Gia grins. Mr. Burley: "For analysis!" Mr. Burley throws the rake he was holding onto the ground. Mr. Burley: "Away you go!" Students begin to walk off in different directions. Some of the students pick up various hand rakes, shears, shovels, and buckets as they walk along. Mr. Burley: "Remember keep your eyes peeled. If you don't really watch where you're going, you might miss something important." Mr. Burley then steps forward onto the rake and it hits him on his forehead. Mr. Burley: "Mommy!" Mr. Burley falls onto the ground. Jake walks over. Jake: "Mr. B, are you okay?" Mr. Burley lifts up his arm and gives Jake a thumbs up. Jake grins and then looks around at the students. His grin fades when he no longer sees Gia. After awhile, Mr. Burley heard a scream. He quickly join the students who had gathered in a circle staring at two large footprints in the mud. Mr. Burley: "Oh! Great Caesar salad! Big Foot was here!" Mr. Burley realized what he had said and quickly covered his mouth. After a moment, and in a more calm manner, Mr. Burley instructed his students. "We better get back to the bus. Quickly kids. Follow me." Everyone boarded the bus and headed back to Harwood County High School.
