A

Take it slow, Ram. Strip for me.
Oh, I liked the tie.

132

Dear Diary:

A

Take the hint.

137
Q

jd: okay, you’re mad. i get it

A

No, I don’t think you do. “Ich luge” bullets?! You lied to me!

138
Q

I did not!

Q

A

Did not!

140
Q

Did not!

Q

jd: can they make you cry now?

No. But you can.

143
Q

jd: just wait till you see the good that comes of this

A

What good could possibly come of this?

144
Q

jd: call me an optimist

A

Dear Diary: My teenage angst bullshit has a body count.

145
Q

jd: well what is that i smell in the air? tolerance? inclusion? love? how often can you say its a good day in sherwood ohio? youre welcome town

A

You don’t have to be so smug about it.

146
Q

jd: your love keeps me humble. so whos next? heather duke?

A

What?

147
Q

jd: she started that rumor about you. we could underline meaningful passages in her copy of moby dick if you know what i mean

A

No!
Three people are dead. This ends here.

148
Q

jd: or what?

A

…Or I’m breaking up with you.

149
Q

jd: any war has casualties. doesnt mean its not worth fighting. but what youd rather go to jail? and give a free pass to the cannibals? the assholes who make the world so unbearable you cant stand to go on living?

A

J.D., how did you mother die?

150
Q

jd: you really want to know?

A

I do.

151
Q

jd: kaboooooooooom. she left me

A

I’m really sorry.

152
Q

jd: the pain gives me clarity. you and i are special. we have a lot of work to do

A

What work?

153
Q

jd: making the world a decent place for people who are decent

A

And when does it end?

154
Q

jd: when every asshole is dead

A

Aaagh!

155
Q

chandler: oh dont give me that wounded look. you know exactly what he is. and you love it

A

Just stop talking.

156
Q

martha: veronica can i talk to you? in private

A

Sure, what?

157
Q

chandler: nancy drew is onto you veronica

A

Why would you say that? They found a suicide note.

158
Q

chandler: i am in love with this fat girl!

A

Who’d want to kill Ram and Kurt?

159
Q

chandler: i bet theres all kinds of interesting things in that locker. maybe some ich luge bullets?

A

Martha…this is a pretty wild theory.

160
Q

martha: he kissed me remember? on the kickball field

A

Yeah, in kindergarten!

161
Q

martha: im gonna confront jd

A

You floor me, Martha. You really do.

162
Q

martha: what do you mean?

A

Ram didn’t write that love note. I did.

163
Q

martha: no

A

Yeah, the Heathers put me up to it. The whole school was in on the joke. And nobody laughed harder than Ram. He didn’t love you. He was a dick, he’s dead, move on!
martha walks away
Shit.
I had to hurt her. You see that, right? If J.D. ever caught her snooping around his stuff, he’d…

164
Q

chandler: …kill her? is that what youre afraid of?

A

I…

165
Q

chandler: thats what i thought. cmon assholes

A

Dear diary. What am I doing?

166
Q

ms fleming: heather mcnamara, share that pain!

A

Heather, don’t do this. Not here.

167
Q

ms fleming: no no no. dont stop heather

A

Let’s go somewhere and talk. Just you and me.

168
Q

ms fleming: thats it young lady-one months detention! turn off the cameras! turn them off god dammit!

A

Is that all you care about? TV cameras?

169
Q

ms fleming: i care about saving lives. heather duke ruined a valuable teaching moment-

A

– Valuable?! None of us want this spectacle. To be experimented on like guinea pigs, patronized like bunny rabbits!

170
Q

chandler: this is their big secret. the adults are powerless

A

Heather trusted you! You said you’d protect her!

171
Q

chandler: they cant help us. nobody can help us

A

You’re useless!

172
Q

end of shine a light (reprise)

A

Heather, no!

173
Q

chandler: we’re alone in the ocean!

A

You’re all idiots! Heather Chandler was a bully, just like Kurt and Ram! They didn’t kill themselves! I killed them!

174
Q

duke: god! some people will say anything if they think itll make them popular. youre worse than mcnamara

A

Heather. Heather!

175
Q

mcnamara: suicide is a private thing

A

Throwing your life away so USA Today can print your picture under the headline “troubled teens” – that’s the least private thing I can think of.

176
Q

mcnamara: but what about heather and ram and kurt?

A

If everyone jumped off a bridge, young lady, would you?

177
Q

mcnamara: probably

A

Oh. Well, if you were happy all the time, you wouldn’t be human. You’d be a game show host.

178
Q

mcnamara: thanks for coming after me

A

You’re welcome.

179
Q

top of scene 4

A

So I’m guessing you’re mad about that confession, huh?

180
Q

jd: not mad. confused. you wanted us to be normal teenagers. i did that. i joined the goddamn AV club for you!

A

I know.

181
Q

jd: do you know what would’ve happened if theyd actually believed your confession? handcuffs. separate cells. cops trying to turn us against each other. right before they ship us off to different prisons. is that what you want? be honest

A

Of course not.

182
Q

jd: well what then?

A

Everyone’s cashing in on these fake suicides, making it about them. It’s a sick trend and we started it.

183
Q

jd: turning ourselves in wont stop human nature

A

Then what? Fleming’s little kumbaya party almost ended with Heather Mac dead on a bathroom floor.

184
Q

jd: fleming’s not the problem. heather duke is. shes the one who made mcnamara want to die. if you want to slay the dragon, cut off its head

A

Stop.

185
Q

Jd: but no, youd rather treat bubonic plague with bandaids. we had the power to change things. but we gave that up to be “normal teenagers.” good luck at school tomorrow heather mac, hope you dont die!

A

We are out of the change business.

You made me a promise remember? I’m holding you to it! Are you even listening? Stop talking over me!

You promised!

186
Q

jd: what? it pissed off my dad. its funny

A

None of this is funny! Why are you carrying a loaded weapon?

187
Q

jd: protection

A

From what?

188
Q

jd: we gotta stop pretending. this is who i am. if you dont like it, take it up with him. he made me.

A

Ohh. Martha was right about you.

189
Q

jd: now lets have a real conversation

A

She was right and I broke her heart.

190
Q

jd: lets talk about heather duke

A

No, let’s talk about you!

191
Q

jd: but i love you!

A

Dude.

192
Q

top of scene 6

A

Martha wasn’t in homeroom today.

193
Q

mcnamara: well did you try calling her house?

A

It just goes straight to her answering machine. Where the hell could she be?

194
Q

duke: hey guys! missed you after third period

A

We were avoiding you because you’re a terrible person.

195
Q

duke: fine skip the foreplay. sign this

A

What is this?

196
Q

duke: its a petition to have mtv throw a spring break blowout to raise suicide awareness. i got everybody to sign. people love me. im gonna make an inspirational speech about it at the pep rally tonight

A

Ucch, count me out.

197
Q

chandler: ooh the plot thickens

A

J.D.?

198
Q

chandler: did you hurt your finger veronica? cause i notice you still haven’t dialed the cops.

A

Listen, I don’t know what J.D.’s up to, but if you know what’s good for you, you’ll throw that clipboard away.

199
Q

duke: not a chance. this is very important work we’re doing. i mean now martha dumptruck. where does it end?

A

What about Martha?

200
Q

duke: they haven’t announced it yet, but i hear last night she did a belly flop off the mill creek bridge holding a suicide note

A

Oh my God.

201
Q

chandler: huh. i wonder what was upsetting her

A

…Is she alive?

202
Q

dead teens (SUNG): smell how gansta you are

A

Martha, I’m so sorry.

203
Q

mom: we’ve been worried sick. your friend jd stopped by. he told us everything

A

…Everything?

204
Q

mom: he even showed us your copy of moby dick

A

This is not my handwriting.

205
Q

chandler: he’s thought of everything veronica

A

What kind of doctor?

206
Q

dead teens (SUNG): guess whos right down the block

A

You’re sending me to a shrink?

207
Q

dead teens (SUNG): guess whos picking your lock

A

I am not the problem!

208
Q

jd: knock knock! sorry to come in through the window. dreadful etiquette i know

A

Get out of my house!

209
Q

jd: hiding in the closet? cmon unlock the door

A

I’ll scream and my parents will call the police.

210
Q

jd: all is forgiven baby! come out and get dressed! youre my date to the pep rally tonight!

A

What? Why!

211
Q

mom: veronica! i made you a snack. veronica?

A

Mom, Mom. It’s okay!

Mom! Stop! I’m fine. Look! See? Just a joke.

212
Q

mom: its not funny!

A

I love you, Mom.

213
Q

ms fleming: veronica! jason dean told us you just committed suicide.

A

Yeah well, he’s wrong about a lot of things.

214
Q

ms fleming: i threw together a lovely tribute. especially given the short notice

A

Ms. Fleming, what’s under the gym?

215
Q

ms fleming: the boiler room

A

That’s it!

216
Q

top of scene 7

A

A Norwegian in the boiler room. Just like your dad.

217
Q

jd: huh. and here i thought youd lost your taste for faking suicides

A

Step away from the bomb.

218
Q

jd: was it good for you? kinda sucked for me

A

It’s over J.D. Which wire do I pull? Which wire? J.D.!

Everybody get out! There’s a bomb! You’ve got to evacuate!

Hello! I don’t know how much time we’ve got! Can anybody hear me?

Okay. Think. If I move the trigger bomb far enough away…
…it can’t set off the thermals. Right? Right.
Ow!

Dear Diary.
I still believe there’s good in everyone, even the worst of us.
I believe we’re all worth saving. And I guess that’s a belief I’m willing to die for.

219
Q

jd: youll never make it in time. not on that ankle

A

How much farther?

220
Q

jd: middle of the football field should do it. let me take it the rest of the way

A

No way. It’s a trick.

221
Q

duke: you look like hell

A

Yeah? I just got back.

222
Q

martha: what?

A

My date for the pep rally kind of blew…me off. SO I was wondering if you weren’t doing anything tonight, maybe we could pop some Jiffy Pop, rent some new releases? Something with a happy ending?
