First Scene

(A normal sixteen’s students  classroom of a High Technical School. When the curtain opens Prof. Loi is already in class and checks the register. In the background a closet and a blackboard. On the wall an inscription in block letters " I.T.S. "E. Mattei- Decimomannu" )

Prof. Loi (asking for attention)

    - But the appeal hasn't been made?

First Student (without almost stopping to chat with his classmate)

    - In fact, no one's missing today...

Prof. Loi (indicating a free school desk)

    - What about those  empty chairs?

Second Student

    - It's the usual bench of the two comrades who retired...

Prof. Loi (in annoyed tone)

    - Ah! Haven't they  picked it up yet?

Third Student (sarcastically)

    - Hey, teacher! Are you kidding? They have surely been very busy!

Prof. Loi (in a resigned tone)

    - Oh, yeah! Too much an effort to move it up... Whatever! Who has to justify the absences and delays?

Fourth Student

    - I've forgotten my booklet...

Fifth Student

    - I lost it instead…

Sixth student

    - I haven't been given the booklet  yet...

Seventh student

    - Wait, teacher! I'm filling it out!

Eighth student (approaching professor Loi)

    - Can I see the register, Professor? I don't remember my absences anymore!

Prof.  Loi (between annoyed and resigned, handing over the class register)

    - Every day I have to waste a quarter of an hour with this bureaucracy! But why don't you make these blessed justifications at home?

...to be continued...
