Abner Flashcards
Nice to see you too abner
What are you doing asking questions about me?
Leave him alone abner
Listen girlie, and listen good. You better-
Listen and listen good? Who writes you’re dialog?
Look-
And look good
Knock it off
And knock it off good
Quit it
And quit it-
Enough (laugh) don’t even ( help Drexton up) I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to lose it
No harm no foul
Seriously, why are you asking questions about me?
Heard you got expelled
Yeah, got a Hoover factor of about 9.8
For stealing the answers to the decathlon meet?
I didn’t steal those
Did you tell the principle that?
Told everybody that, you think they listen to me?
Did you tell ‘em to listen good?
Really hopin’ you’ll stop that
That was the last one I promise
I was set up, man. I was framed
Sure. How’d they find the answers on you?
I don’t know, I just opened my locker on Monday morning and these pages spilled out onto the floor. You know my locker is right by the front doors, so like 50 people saw them fall out
Hand in the cookie jar
Come on man, you think I’m stupid enough to leave the pages in my locker?
Smart guy might, then claim he was innocent because he couldn’t be that stupid.
Man, you’ve got a twisted mind.
Welcome to high school
Now you’re poking around, digging all this up. Why?
Thought that maybe I could help.
Yeah, right. Why didn’t you come to me in the first place? Instead of asking all around the school?
I promised you’re girlfriend I wouldn’t talk to you.
(Turn towards Sylvia) Did you tell him to not talk to me?
You think I should get somebody else to do it?
What are you doing asking questions about me, man? Huh? Huh? What are you doing?!-push him down-
Why are you asking questions about me?
Oh no there abner, I wouldn’t a done something like that
(Drexton) are you lying to me?
Sorry, not her. Your girlfriend
Sylvia is my girlfriend
You went and got yourself another girl?
No, baby. No!
Abner Johnson, don’t you go toying with my heart there, you big lug
I’m not baby. You’re the only girl for me
(Grab Drexton again) what game are you playing? Sylvia and I have been together 18 months
Girls keep track. It’s a chick thing
What are you up to?
Sorry, someone CLAIMING to be your girlfriend hired me to prove you innocent.
Claiming to be? Who?
Carmen. Her name is Carmen Hardstone
Never heard of her. Have you Sylvie?
Not ringing any bells
So this mystery lady asks you to clear my name?
Pays me
Why?
That’s the question, isn’t it?
So what are you going to do?
Earn my money
Prove I didn’t do it.
But I am going to figure this out
Thanks Drexton. You always were aces
Then why not just steal the answers? Why frame abner?
Yeah, why me?
Someone specifically wanted to set you up.
But who?
They shove the answers into a nearby locker.
Hey, my locker is right by the front door.
Exactly.
Could have been anybody’s locker
A smart guy caught with the pages would cry frame. Anybody would. What if it wasn’t
What? You saying I really did do it?
If y got sloppy and got caught with the pages, you’d cry frame. But none of the adults would listen to you.
We’re teenagers, man. They’re scared of us.
There was no way to throw suspicion to Hammet high.
Maybe. There’s only one flaw in your theory.
Sure
I didn’t do it
Where’s he going to run?
So reg really did it?
Yeah
Thanks man
