NOTE: In the 4th quarter, the ABCD answers are now 10 points (instead of 3)
ABCD (Above & Beyond the Call of Duty) — the only way to get to 50/50 (A+); you may also need the points if you’ve dropped points for questions 1-10.
The teacher who plays “NSA” was a teacher students feared.
The girls who played Erin, Echo and Ellie were terrified of her!
Imagine you were acting the part of a student up against “NSA,” and “NSA” was played by Mr. Ching (or another teacher/coach/adult you might be fearful of).
How easy do you think it would be to be rude and obnoxious to him, even though you knew you were “just filming” and it was “make believe”?
