"Bad Words" is a 2013 Black Comedy starring and directed by Jason Bateman.Guy Trilby manages to qualify himself for the children's Golden Quill Spelling Bee competition, with the objective of making it to the National Spelling Bee. The problem with this is that he's an adult, 40 years old at the time he attempts this plan. Despite initial opposition and his own better judgment, he manages to get in on a technicality with the help of a reporter of an internet news site, Jenny Widgeon (played by Kathryn Hahn). After winning that tournament and the next two subsequent, he makes it to the National Spelling Bee.On the plane, he meets Chaitanya Chopra, a fellow competitor and a ten-year old child, who becomes friends with Trilby more or less against the protagonist's will. During the National Spelling Bee and his stay in the hotel, Trilby shows Chaitanya the wilder side of life while learning a little bit about himself.WARNING: Since the film relies heavily on twists and reveals, this page is a veritable minefield of spoilers. Be cautious. | |

| Bad Words / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: Dr. Bernice Janning tells the crowd complaining to her about Guy's participation in the spelling bee that she would abdicate her position if he made it to the final round. But then he does. She doesn't quit, but it's revealed that she tampered with the list of words, deliberately giving Guy exceedingly long words compared to the other competitors, and she's removed anyway. | |

Disproportionate Retribution: Guy convinces one of the children he's sitting next to, whose dad said disparaging remarks about him that the kid repeated, that he slept with the child's mother and that the kid's parents are getting a divorce. He does so by handing the child a pair of panties (actually Jenny's) and telling him they belonged to his mom. And then the kid had to spell his next word after it was used in a sentence that had the words "her many suitors" in it. Predictably, the kid fails it. | |

The Reveal: Guy's dad is Dr. Bowman, the head of the organization running the Golden Quill tournament.

The entire reason Guy is at the tournament to begin with is to humiliate his father and destroy the integrity of his spelling bee to get back at him. Also, Chaitanya only pretending to be friends with Guy so that he'd deliberately blow it and let him win. | |

The Dog Bites Back: Dr. Bernice Janning spends most of her screentime being a complete ass, most especially to the word announcer at the competition. When she refuses to quit after Guy makes it to the final round, said word announcer reveals that he can prove she altered the word list to stack the deck against Guy, leading to her being fired anyway. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| Bad Words / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: Guy alludes to it numerous times; he never knew his father, and his mother "cussed a lot," moved around a lot to dodge rent, preventing Guy from really having any friends, and when he signed up for his first spelling bee, his mother burned his favorite dictionary. As a result, he acted out in school, by which the counselor of the school during his eighth grade year called him a useless loser note (though, admittedly, after Guy had stolen his bike and shaved his cat). As a result, Guy dropped out of school and never made it past the eighth grade as a result of it. | |
