Politeness is one of the communication strategies that emphasize on how to be polite in words and actions. People usually use politeness in order to maintain and develop their relationship. If the individual can use politeness, automatically the individual can reach a running well and going smoothly of life.

As results of this research, the writer found 90 data which contain politeness strategies and about 16 data has been analyzed by the writer. All the data belong to the four politeness strategies as being proposed by Brown and Levinson, namely bald on record, positive politeness, negative politeness and off record. Bald on record strategy is used by Harry in the situation of urgency. In positive politeness, Harry uses it to people around him in order to satisfying their positive face. Negative politeness also used by Harry as he wants to satisfy the hearer‟s negative face. While off record strategy used by Harry because he wants to be indirect and gives the hearer clues. Harry used those strategies to his friends, teachers and character around him.
