Maddox was not good in school.
So sleeping in class was his number 1 rule.
He would greet the teachers and lay his head on his desk.
And yawn when classes ended after a good day's rest.

Maddox didn't expect to pass because he put forth no effort.
And he didn't try to do his best.
But a teacher told him that even though he slept through class.
At least he wasn't a pest.
