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?
