Killing Mr. Griffin is a 1997 American television film directed by Jack Bender and starring Jay Thomas, Scott Bairstow, Mario Lopez, and Amy Jo Johnson.

Mark pitches the idea of kidnapping and humiliating Mr. Griffin to his friends: Dave, Jeff, Tori, and Bree.

Mark chooses Susan McConnell, a dedicated student who longs to be part of the popular crowd.

Once everyone has left, Susan walks him to his car in the empty parking lot, where he acknowledges he has been tough on her and recognizes her potential.

He reveals that he has a heart condition and requires his medication, but they are unable to find it, believing it was lost during the struggle.

Mr. Griffin is reported missing by his wife, and the police question Susan, as she was the last person to see him before his disappearance.

They go to the police, and Susan expresses her regret over what happened, citing her desperation for acceptance and belonging as her reason for going along.
