Scenes 1-5 (P. 1-20) Flashcards
Scene 1:
Who’s she?
I don’t know. She’s always there.
She’s beautiful.
Stuck up and egocentric if you ask me.
Who says?
Simon Tremblay. […] She’s not interested in any of the boys from oir school.
Oh yeah? Why’s she standing there then?
Hey.
What’s up?
“What’s up?”
Nothing.
No. I’m trying to give it up.
Cool.
Yeah, cool, because this isn’t a Juul anyway. I just put my pencil lead in it.
Why aren’t you at school?
I’m a model.
Cool. Like, for magazines and stuff?
There’s nothing interesting for me here.
Yeah… me too.
But I mean, if you want to work, I’m filming a video. It’s for my band.
You’re in a band?
Yes. And we need a girl for it. There’s like a story. It’s called a “story-board” video. You could be the girl. In the story. If you’re free. Have you been in a video before?
No. Is that a problem?
I hope not. I’ll ask the producer.
Who’s the producer?
That kid behind me.
When are we shooting? I’m pretty busy.
Saturday. I mean, next Saturday. I could text you the details. If I had your number.
So if you’re in a band, sing me a song.
I’m not singing here.
I’m just one. Sing.
Sing what?
I’ll text you tomorrow.
[Conor, to Darra]
We need to form a band.
Alter the education situation.
What education situation?
She means your school. They’re taking you out of school.
What?
You’re welcome, Noa.
Cuts, how many more cuts can we take? I’m already wearing three sweater indoors. And a hat. And since you cut the Wifi, I’ve been paying the kid next door for his password every month. He makes them all Strangers Things spoilers! Which I haven’t been able to finish because you cancelled our Netflix.
So do the Viatorians.
Who are the Viatorians?
Well, they didn’t BEAT me.
They’ll beat me?
You’ll settle in no time.
You can’t just change in the middle of the year. Just when I’m making friends, and settling in. This could scar me! Long term!
We’ll be sorry to be losing you. […] The Viatorians can be a little tough in my opinion, but they get the job done.
No more Lacrosse. No fencing, debate club… Do they even have school plays?
They’ll have their own extracurricular activities, I expect.
Yeah, like switch blade practice. And corporal punishment 101.
I’m sure that’s not true.
I heard it is! I can’t do corporal punishment! I’m too light-boned!
Adaptability.
[End of Father Roy dialogue, Conor’s friends]
So guys, I’m not coming back after Friday.
They hell? What for?
Parents are moving me to a different school.
Dicks. Did they say why?
They say we have no money.
(beat)
But we’ll still hang out, right?
Yeah, for sure.
On weekends and stuff?
So where are you going? Is it close?
It doesn’t matter.
Come on, where? It can’t be that bad.
No really…
Where are you going, Conor?
Synge Street.
What?
[Beginning scene 4, with no wait you’re tiny]
You doing anything?
What does it look like?
Like you’re not.
Find a way of distracting the thugs from noticing you.
How do I do that?
How would I know?
I feel like I’m going to prison.
Part of the bigger picture? This school move?
What do you mean?
I hear them fighting, in the middle of the night.
You do? Why aren’t you asleep?
Under threat. Of monsters.
What monsters?
Fear, infidelity, ego and materialism.
That’s a four-headed monster.
This is YOUR time. I had my time.
And what happened?
[Baxter]
Good morning.
Good morning, Brother Baxter.
Point to Spain on a map, let alone speak the language.
Yes?
In Western Europe, east of Portugal. It borders France to the north and Gibraltar in the south.
And how do you know that?
Well… We learn it in geography class. In sec 2…
So you’re the new kid then, from the jesuits?
Yes.
Yes Brother. What’s your name?
Conor Lawlor.
Your peers will show you the ropes. I’m sure. Welcome.
Thank you… Brother.
We’ll let it go for today, but from tomorrow on…
I don’t have black shoes, sir.
Report to me first thing in the morning with them. Good man.
(Conor turns to Barry)
Sorry, where did he say the cafe was?
[Barry]
The wha?
The cafe. Where we get lunch.
You mean the cafeteria?
Yeah. Of course.
You’re not in Spain right now, dickhead.
Where are you from?
What?
Where you from?
I’m from here.
I heard you’re a gay.
What?
I heard you’re a little gay?
No. You must have me confused with someone else.
I don’t think so. Dance.
What?
Dance. Like a gay.
Are you serious?
Now dance with your pants down.
What?
Get up on that ledge. And dance with your pants down.
No.
What did you just say?
No, I’m not doing that.
You should’ve just danced.
What would you know?
Darra’s the name.
Conor. Who is that psycho?
That’s Barry Bray. He eats hair gel.
What?
The only problem is, now he’ll be out for your blood.
Why?
Stop by anytime.
There’s no address on it.
That’s because it’s down the road. Just ask the other kids.
You aren’t staying for class?
I can’t really read well.
Right. So, how’s that going to work out, in business?
You won’t survive in here unless you deal with Barry.
What if we told Baxter?
Oh no. Hide.
What?
Ah, Mr. Lawlor. The boy from Spain, correct?
No, incorrect actually, Brother. I’m not FROM Spain…
[Brie]
This is the way of the future.
Yeah, Noa.
