When Ferris call off him up to link him on a day of risky venture , he repeatedly say no and continues to say no to — and be afraid of — every proposition Ferris make throughout the day .

Ben Stein portray a dull economics teacher inFerris Bueller ’s Day Off . The movie often intercuts between shots of his dull , droning speech and Ferris ’s risky venture .
After the tedious roll call , the teacher is explaining something about tariffs . The straight meaning gets lost between his frequent pauses to inquire " anyone " if they can fill in the blanks . The pupil , quick-frozen or numb , can only stare blankly as he repeatedly ask for participation from his world-weary class .
“I Don’t Trust This Kid Any Further Than I Can Throw Him.”
Principal Ed Rooney is a bit of a creep . Besides his unhealthy obsession with Ferris , he speaks to scholar in a very unprofessional manner , accidentally hits on an unsuspecting young woman , and separate into the Bueller household . Early in the film , Ed is telling his repository how he does n’t hope Ferris any more than he can " throw him " .
Grace responds that with his bad stifle , he should n’t be fuddle anybody . Ed goes on to describe the " 1500 Ferris Bueller disciples " he fears will hazard his power to govern the school .

" They could be fascists for all he give care , he tell , then elaborates so that viewer do n’t imagine he ’s totally without a moral sense .
“Adams? Adamley? Adamowski? Adamson? Adler? Anderson?”
The aforementioned teacher put as much excitement into read the bankroll as he does giving lectures . Here , we see him going through his course list , robotically reading off the last names of the students with as little enthusiasm as a human being can rally .
When he baffle to the names of the missing student — Bueller , Frye — he senselessly repeats them as he awaits their reply , not even bother to put forth the crusade of noticing that they are n’t actually there .
“My Best Friend’s Sister’s Boyfriend’s Brother’s Girlfriend Heard From This Guy Who Knows This Kid Who’s Going With A Girl Who Saw Ferris Pass Out At 31 Flavors Last Night.”
When the teacher gets to Bueller , he repeats the name four times , almost as if he ’s a robot . He ’d credibly stay if Simone Adamley did n’t interrupt him .
Overly joyful , she explains that Ferris is nauseated through what is patently eighth - hand data . The instructor sighs and give thanks her for the more - than - passable explanation . She cheerfully responds , " No job whatsoever ! "
“Frye? Frye? Frye? Frye?”
The next name on the list is Frye . This prison term , nobody interrupt the instructor ’s monotonous repeating of Cameron ’s last name . Unlike Ferris , Cameron is actually sick in bed , as viewer see when the shot cuts from the teacher to the Frye house .

“I’ll Go, I’ll Go, I’ll Go, I’ll Go, I’ll Go.”
Perhaps the funniest scene in the film is when Cameron is debate with himself as to whether or not he should go and conjoin Ferris , knowing that he will keep call him if he does n’t .
He ’s sit alone in his car , tell himself this situation is stupefied . He tries to motivate himself by reprize the word " I ’ll go " until leave alone the car in frustration and stamping his metrical unit on the ground . ultimately , he relents and gets back in the car , already regretting the decisiveness .
