大意:
執教鞭20年,對教育心灰意冷的麥克歐康納,打算在教滿20年當天辭職。不料在當日下午遭一對名為小魯與丹妮葉的少年男女綁架,受逼開車至華盛頓湖。途中言談間,丹妮葉發生麥克是自己的高中老師,興奮之餘不願繼續綁架。冷酷無情的小魯遂半途逼麥克進入車後行李箱,持續前行。麥克的命運會如何?一路隨行的蒙妮卡,該如何協助麥克?

短評:
咱們中國人所謂「師者,傳道、授業、解惑也。」生長於書香世家的我,父母均為教師,故我自幼即相當敬重老師,對本劇內容特別能體會,莫大感動自不在話下。本劇內容頗似美國影星蜜雪兒菲佛之作<危險遊戲>(Dangerous Minds)、<春風化雨1996>與法國電影<放牛班的春天>(Les Choristes)與<山村猶有讀書聲>(Être et Avoir)。前者敘述前海軍陸戰隊退役女軍官轉執教鞭,另類教育感化一班叛逆、狂野的學生;後三者中的教師以音樂與身教感動學生,進而影響學生的人生。而早年好萊塢名作<吾愛吾師>(To Sir, with Love)更透過黑人老師在白人學生之間,在當時種族觀念強烈的美國如何自處,並感動學生。 (影評-劉鴻輝)


老師對學生的影響無遠弗屆。得遇良師,如獲良朋。本集在麥克歐康納老師被關在行李箱內觀賞攝影機中學生對他真摰的祝福,明白自己的付出有價值,不斷對神謝恩的場面,是全劇最高潮。劇末蒙妮卡對羅比說明歐老師未在攝影機失竊報告中指明他行竊,展現了願給他自新機會的用感;結局在醫院內脫離險境的歐老師向學生微微揮手致意,學生揮手回應的片段,更是令人熱淚盈眶…師生之情何等溫馨,歐老師不虛此生。

(值得一提的是,麥克歐唐納老師一角由美國知名影集<三人行>男主角約翰里德飾演。之後他又參與了第五季<黑白之間>的演出。)

萬世師表孔子「有教無類」的崇高思想,恰恰形容了咱們的主耶穌基督。凡來到祂面前的,祂總不離棄,總以完全的愛與豐沛的靈糧餵養,使我們得以成長茁壯。看完這一集,真要大大讚美祂!願榮耀與感恩歸與主耶穌,這位最有教無類,千秋長存的萬世師表!



A solemn Monica stands in the woods, reflecting on the events that transpired there earlier. Tess appears, reminding Monica that some "days humans behave so badly to one another that it's all an angel can do to keep loving them." The caseworker recalls how this assignment began.
Fed up with the "Yeah, whatever"generation, Mike O'Connor questioned the significance of his career on the eve of his 20th anniversary as a teacher. Into his life walked Monica, his new student teacher. Unfortunately, so did Lucas Tremaine and Danielle Dawson, two petty criminals who randomly targeted Mike for kidnapping. Monica tacitly revealed herself to Mike, giving him counsel during his ordeal. The situation began to look less grim when the teacher recognized Danielle as a former pupil. But the volatile Lucas forced Mike to get into the car's trunk while en route to steal the teacher's boat at Lake Washington. Unable to free Mike from the trunk, Monica encouraged him by playing the videotape his class made to commemorate his anniversary. Afterwards he prayed, thanking God for his life and for his students. Irritated that he couldn't find the boat, Lucas hauled the teacher out of the trunk and shot him--despite Danielle's protests. Monica, however, managed to record the event with Mike's video camera. Frustrated with Lucas after the shooting, Danielle punched him, causing the car to swerve. A state patrolman pulled them over and inspected the trunk. Seeing that the camera's record light was still on, the strung-out woman confessed to the patrolman, who apprehended the pair. Discouraged by her inability to help Mike, Monica received a revelation from Tess to use her gift "words"to help him. She confronted Robbie Hawkins, one of Mike's problem students who had withheld information about his possible whereabouts. A search party eventually found the unconscious teacher.

The reminiscence complete, Tess affirms that Monica was the right angel for the job. Mike recovers from his injuries and is visited by his students, including Robbie, who sympathizes with his teacher's ordeal.
