Black screen slowly fades to reveal a teacher being interviewed in a classroom, by an interviewer. The teacher will be facing slightly to the right of the camera, at interviewer.

Teacher fiddles with microphone and seems not to know how it works. Cut to shot a minute or so later where teacher is ready for the interview

Teacher 1: My class is well behaved, I think I've got them under my total control.
