[V.O.] It was the first day of school after the new year. And I finally had everything I’d ever wished for. [to Jules] You know you’re like a dream?
[chuckles] I didn’t know you were such a romantic, Rue.
[Rue sees Elliot walking down the hallway and immediately gets tense]
[V.O.] Oh, fuck… I completely forgot he goes to our school.
[V.O.] If this asshole says anything about doing drugs, I will literally slit his throat in the quad.
You kinda checked out for a second.
[Elliot notices Rue and makes his way towards her]
[V.O.] Please, God, do not fuck up my life.
EElliot
Hey, I'm Elliot. Nice to meet you.
Sorry, introductions are usually very overwhelming and… debilitating for me… at least.
...Uh, so, how do you know Elliot?
EElliot
We met on New Year’s.
[beat; chuckles] Oh shit, yeah. That was it, New Year’s. That’s… That’s where we met. [pause] Jules is my girlfriend.
EElliot
Wow… I didn’t know you were, um…
[V.O.] The other thing I wish I could mention is I sort of spent the last few days hanging out with Elliot. Which was cool ’cause he makes a ton of money selling music stems online, and we bought a bunch of drugs.
Um… it was nice to meet you, and I’ll see you later, Rue.
EElliot
Nice to meet you.
[to Jules] I love you. Bye.
[Rue just stands still in the hallway with Elliot as Jules walks off]
[V.O.] Fuck. Was it just me or was that super awkward?
EElliot
That was awkward.
And like with Jules, right? Like, when I first met her, I was just immediately in love.
Yeah. When you say it out loud, it kind of sounds small.
EElliot
What's a bigger feeling than love?
Yeah, I think so. Yeah. I don't know, maybe that's what it was, right? Like, as soon as I saw her, I was just immediately afraid to lose her.
EElliot
Yo, Jules. I dare you to take a piss in the middle of the street.
Alright. [gets out vehicle] Sure, yes! [Elliot chuckles] Gender-fuck me, please!
[Jules starts pissing]
Oh. Okay, Jules. [Elliot chuckles]
EElliot
[laughs when a vehicle is oncoming] Hey! Car! [motorist honks]
Oh... my God. [turns to face Elliot's vehicle]
EElliot
[repeatedly] No...!
[repeatedly] Not on the car...!
[walks up to jock and two friends] Hey, look, I, uh, I noticed the way that you’ve been lookin’ at me you know, past couple days, and I... I wanted you to know, I too, I’m into scat play, and if you wanted to, like, poop on each other–
[The jocks shout and chase Ethan]
JJock
I’ll fuckin’ kill you, goddammit!
EElliot
[loitering in hallway with Rue] That’s a good-ass plan.
Thank you. Fuckin’ Fez didn’t even wanna hear it.
Ego shit, man. [to Lexi in hallway putting up flyers over the official "Oklahoma" play production calling for auditions of her original play also entitled Oklahoma] Yo, Lex, what're you doin'?
Oh, just putting up fliers for this play I'm doing.
What play? [V.O.] The only thing is... Lexi hadn't told anyone about the play... including Cassie.
I'd actually love for you to read it. [aloud] Yeah, for sure. Just, uh, send it to me. [enters washroom]
[enters washroom] Hey, Rue-Rue.
Hi, Cass. Wait, are you in the play?
What do you mean, Lexi's play?
Uh, the play that Lexi wrote.
The play's called "Oklahoma"?
No, the drama club's doing "Oklahoma."
Oh my god. Do I look like I'm in "Oklahoma"?
Why would your play be set in Oklahoma?
[facing Rue with Lexi making a slash throat (meaning; stop talking) gesture behind her] You thought I was auditioning for "Oklahoma"?
[Lexi frantically makes waving gestures (meaning; PLEASE stop talking) behind her] Are you making fun of me, or did you actually think I was auditioning for "Oklahoma"?
[walks up with Kat] Why the fuck would you audition for "Oklahoma"?
Then why the fuck do you look like you're auditioning for "Oklahoma"?
Has everyone read "Oklahoma" but me?
"Oklahoma"'s not like a play you read.
Oh, I've just... nah, I've just been smokin' a little bit of weed.
Wait, I don't understand. If you're not auditioning for "Oklahoma," then why do you look like that?
Like a country music star.
In a good way or a bad way?
Bitch, you better be joking. Are you okay, Cass?
No! Yes, fuck it! I am in love with Nate Jacobs and he is in love with me! And don't you fucking give me that look, Maddy, because I didn't fuck your boyfriend! You two were broken up for three weeks and three days before we even had sеx, so I didn't betray you! Plus, you guys are terrible for each other and you know I'm right and you guys can all judge me [turns head over left shoulder to Rue then back at Maddy and Kat] if you want, but I do not care! I have never, ever been happier!
[V.O.] But she didn't say that. In fact, it was much weirder. She just stared straight ahead like she's doing now and didn't say a word.
