Transcript:
Dusty: Dagnabit!! Professor: What's wrong, Dusty? Dusty: Feller can't git hisself no customer service by phone, no how! General: You don't speak in a gramatically correct manner. Perhaps you're misunderstood. Dusty: Izzat so? Professor: Indeed! For instance... I've heard you say "the scissors is in the drawer" and "my car don't run so good..." therefore, each time you speak incorrectly, I'll correct you! Dusty: Oh, woe is me!! Professor: Actually, Dusty... to be correct, it's oh, woe is I!

“Woe is me” is a shortened version of “Woe is to me.” “Woe” is the subject and “me” is an indirect object. So the professor has uncorrected Dusty.
