MADDY:

You two look like that soap

commercial. Which one's the

daughter and which one's the

mother?

ARTHUR:

You took this seriously. You're a

real blast from the past.

PEGGY:

It was Beth's idea.

MADDY:

I wish I had the nerve. And the

figure.

ARTHUR:

You always were a crazy little gal,

Peg.

PEGGY:

Arthur, please don't call me Peg.

INT. SCHOOL HALLWAY — NIGHT

A large table in the lobby holds plastic nametags. A sign

reads:
LADIES IF YOU CAN'T FIND TOUR TAG, LOOK UNDER YOUR

MAIDEN NAME. Several people are bending over the table

looking for their tags. A HOSTESS is sitting behind the

table. Peggy, Beth, Maddy and Arthur enter. Hellos all

around.

PEGGY:

Beth's boyfriend is playing in the

band.

MADDY:

It must run in the family.

BETH:

What does?

ARTHUR:

You and your mother both seem to

fall for musicians.

Maddy and Arthur laugh. Peggy is not amused. The hostess

hands them their name tags and turns to welcome new arrivals.

As they proceed down the hallway, Peggy SEES a distinguished

man enter, RICHARD NORVIK. With him is his pregnant wife

SHARON. Richard smiles at Peggy. She can't place him. Peggy

turns back to her group and continues down the hall. The

fifties MUSIC GETS LOUDER AND LOUDER.

INT. GYM

The gym is packed with people dancing, chatting, greeting

lost friends. A bar is set up at one end. On the walls are

black and white blow—ups of the 1960 yearbook. On a table is

a buffet and Peggy' s cake. The BAND is PLAYING and SINGING

old rock and roll songs. Couples slow dance, jive and stroll.

Peggy, Beth, Maddy and Arthur enter. Beth leaves the group.

ARTHUR:

Hey, there's Terry and Leon.

MADDY:

Peggy, would you find a table?

We'll see you in a little while.

PEGGY:

Okay.

They walk away into the crowd, leaving Peggy alone.

INT. GYM NEAR WALL

CL0SE VIEW — A photo of the majorettes. Peggy is in the

middle, twirling her baton.

Her reverie is interrupted by:

RICHARD (0.S.)

Are you Peggy Sue Kelcher?

PEGGY:

I was once. Richard!? Richard

Norvik? I didn't recognize you.

RICHARD:

You look exactly the same.

PEGGY:

I just did it for tonight. I don't

normally dress like this.

SHARON:

It's adorable.

RICHARD:

Oh, I'm sorry.. Peggy Sue Kelcher,

my wife Sharon.

PEGGY:

Hello. Nice to meet you. Please

call me Peggy. I'm Peggy Bodell

now.

RICHARD:

Where's Charlie? I was in town

about a year ago and caught one of

his commercials. Really made me

laugh.

PEGGY:

He's not here. We're getting

divorced.

RICHARD:

Gee. I'm sorry to hear that.

NEW VIEW — A large, beefy HAND is THRUST INTO FRAME.
