Scene 5 Flashcards
CQ: what song are you doing tonight?
I-I don’t-
SE: what song are you doing for freestyle tonight the Nina?
Guys-I really- I don’t know if I can do this.
CQ: oh fuck he got to you.
I have pages and pages of notes and I’ve watched every video and I’ve rehearsed for hours, but I’m terrified I’m going to get up there and shut down again.
CQ: like you did at the Hungry Brain two years ago?
How do you? You watched our band videos?
CQ: why is everyone so shocked?
But why?
CQ: do you know what your problem is?
I’m sure you do.
CQ: I can put that shield down and let all my darkness come rushing out.
Wow
CQ: when’s the last time you felt that free the Nina?
Um before puberty?
CQ: tell that voice in your head to go fuck itself and raise hell.
But why would anyone want to see me up there, when they could see you?
GT: so get your head outta your notes and your ass up onstage. Otherwise what has this all been for the Nina?
You’re right. I have to do this. It’s been months since Staten Island. I’m basically a new person now.
CQ: and what is this new person’s song?
Crowd Chant. What? What? It kills? Shreddy you know that track kills.
CQ: oh girl.
What?
FB: is it possible that you are only playing this song as a way to thumb your nose at one particular person in the crowd?
What? No. What does that even mean.
CQ: you know that song almost got him fired from his Sprite commercial. Just admit it.
Joe Sa-tri-an-ee
GT: denial!
Why are you so upset?
CQ: and he can change it at any time.
So?
CQ: so do you really want to provoke him?
I don’t care what Vicious thinks.
GT: uh clearly you do.
Crowd Chant. Joe SA-tri-an-ee. It’s gonna slay, I’m gonna win. End of discussion.
You give love a bad name plays
Oh. Very mature
SE: heartless
Hopeless
