How many people were killed?
OK, not quite 10 million.
Somewhere between 10 and 10 million--

Joe, hi.
Come in, come in.
Quickly, quickly.
Open your books then, please.
Page 28.
Open your books to page 28 for me please, nice and quickly.
- How are you?
- Really good.
[SCHOOL BELL RINGING]
[CHATTER]
- Joe?
Are you sure you should be here?
- Yeah, yeah, it's OK Sir.
- OK.
- Joe!
Why won't you talk to me?
We used to have chemistry.
- We do have Chemistry.
Next lesson.
- Joe, that's not funny.
You're meant to be sad.
- It's all good.
[CHATTER]
- What a mess!
Come on, get your back into it.
Uh, no lumps in the flour, thank you.
Keep sieving.
We want a fine product.
Joe, where are your ingredients?
Did Mum forget to pack them?
- Miss, his mum's died.
- Oh, I'm so sorry.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
I know exactly what you're going through.
I want you to know my door is always open.
Always.
- Did you see the game last night?
- Yeah.
- How are your family?
Yeah, cool.
They're fine.
Thanks, Miss.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
- Come on.
Bedtime.
[COUGHS]
- Oh, are you sure you're all right?
You must be so sad.
- I know how you feel.
My hamster died.
- At least you've got a girlfriend.
- Give it time.
- Pain is weakness.
Man up and get on with it.
- John 14 always works for me.

[CHATTER]
- Oi!
You forgot Ellie's birthday.
- She's really mad at you.
- Jack in the year above just asked her out.
- She's going to pie you.
- You two are over.
- Dumped, mate.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[CHATTER]
- Really, really good.
Really good analysis.
That was wonderful.
One of the best ones you've done.
We need to talk about this, OK?
Pick it up.
Watch them.
Joe!
Joe, you can't run away from me.
- Miss, you don't understand.
- I do understand.
- Everybody thinks they understand, but they don't.
And it's just one essay.
It doesn't even matter.
- It's not about the essay.
It's about you.
- Miss, I don't even know what to say.
Everyone thinks it's fine and they
think that they're helping, but they're not,
and you don't understand.
Nobody understands, Miss.
- Listen, you're OK.
You're OK.
- Hey, Joe?
- Thanks, Miss.
- Yeah.
- Dear Mum, remember that time we went to feed the ducks
and my hands got so cold that I cried?
But it was all right because you brought my mittens.
I miss you so much.
I'd give anything for us to go to the chip
shop together one more time.
I'm sorry if I was ever selfish.
I miss you asking us to rate our day out of 10.
Mum, today, it was a 7.
