Petter: Yeah, he hit the ceiling when he found out that a student plagiarized an essay.
Lucas: Remember what he said about plagiarists? It just slipped my mind.
Petter: Man, he said that plagiarists are robbers or something like that. Anyways, I think he overexaggerated.
Lucas: You can say that again. I just hope all this affair fizzles out. Nobody can put up with Mr. James when he’s angry.
New expressions and Vocabulary!
On a roll
That expression can have two different meanings. One of those, which is used more commonly, means to be “in a spell of good luck or good fortune”, to be “having a successful period”. The other meaning, which we find in this episode, is that someone is “going on and on about something”, talking a lot about it.
