Cameron:
What's going on, guys?

Charlie:
You finked, didn't you, Cameron?

Cameron:
Finked? I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

Charlie:
You told Nolan about everything about that club is what I'm talking about!

Cameron:
Look, in case you hadn't heard, Dalton, there's something called an honor code at this school, alright?! If a teacher asks you a question, you tell the truth, or you're expelled.

(Outraged, Charlie bolts towards Cameron to attack him, but the others hold him back.)

Charlie:
He's a rat! He's in it up to his eyes, so he rattled to save himself!

Knox:
Don't touch him, Charlie. You do, and you're out.

Charlie:
I'm out anyway!

Knox:
You don't know that, not yet.

Cameron:
He's right there, Charlie. And if you guys are smart, you will do EXACTLY what I did and cooperate! They're not after us! We're the victims! Us and Neil.

Charlie:
What's that mean? Who are they after?

Cameron:
Why, Mr. Keating, of course! The "Captain" himself! I mean, you guys didn't really think he could avoid responsibility, did you?

Charlie:
Mr. Keating responsible for Neil? Is that what they're saying?

Cameron:
Well, who else do you think, dumbass?! The administration?! Mr. Perry?! I mean, Mr. Keating put us up to all this crap, didn't he?! If it wasn't for Mr. Keating, Neil would be cozying up in his room right now, studying his chemistry, and dreaming of being called doctor!

Todd:
That is not true, Cameron! You know that! He didn't put us up to anything! And Neil loved acting!

Cameron:
Believe what you want, but I say let Keating fry! I mean, why ruin our lives?!

(Charlie, out of rage, slugs Cameron. The others restrain him again.)

Cameron:
You've just signed your expulsion papers, "Nuwanda"! And if the rest of you were smart, you'll do exactly what I did! They know everything anyway. You can't save Keating, but you can save yourselves.
