2:37 Page #2

Synopsis: A contemporary, ensemble drama telling the complex tale of six high school students whose lives are interwoven with situations that so many of today's youth are faced with.

As the story unfolds, the individual stories of the six teenagers are revealed, each with its own explosive significance. An unwanted pregnancy unravels a terrible, dark secret; all is not as it appears for the seemingly confident school football hero; an outcast must deal with everyday taunts from his peers; a beautiful young girl battles an eating disorder; a stellar student constantly struggles to win his parents' approval; while another uses drugs to escape from his own demons.

Your story...

Was it... personal?

Of course it was personal.

Oh.

Who was it about?

Look, I've gotta go.

Marcus. Come on, I didn't...

BO Y:
Hey, Luke. What happened

at the party after I left?

LUKE:
Oh, I was f***ing gone, man.

BO Y 2:
You were f***ed!

I'd gone into the corner to

take a slash, right,

'cause I was f***ing parro,

and this little bastard

taps me on the shoulder...

What - Dino?

Nah. Yeah, Ben.

So I turn around

while I'm taking a piss

and just piss all over this guy, man.

You f***ing pissed all over him?

What did Ben do?

What could he do, man?

He was covered in piss.

Hey, Seanie!

Hey, Sean.

How's it going, buddy?

You get f***ing sh*t on your dick?

Hey, you like taking it

or giving it, eh?

I could give it to you, Seanie.

Oh, yeah. Oh! I'm gonna come.

Yeah. You like that?

Hey. Oh, come on. Give us a kiss.

SEAN:
Get the f*** off me.

Oooh!

What - we're not good enough

You're f***in' pathetic.

F***ing cock jockey!

GIRL:
Hey, babe.

Hey, guys.

She's always looking at him.

Oh, whatever.

She is!

What the f*** are you doing?

Get out!

What IS wrong with him?

Probably stoned.

It's disgusting.

F***.

Did you hear about

Griggs having cancer?

Sh*t - is it bad?

I don't know. Think so.

That's sad.

It is.

Alright. How do I look?

You look hot.

Alrighty. I'll see you after.

Alright. See you later.

GIRL:
Hey, Sarah!

Hey!

Can you wait two minutes?

Yeah. I'll meet you down there.

Alright. See ya.

See ya!

BO Y:
Come on, give us a kiss.

What - we're not

good enough for you, Seanie?

SEAN:
You're f***in' pathetic.

BO Y:
F***ing cock jockey!

Hey, babe.

Hey, guys.

We're gonna cruise, Lukey.

See ya.

Uh... I gotta go.

Oh, I just got here!

See ya.

Hey. Where's Luke going?

His class or something.

Where were you?

Oh, this student video thing.

Oh.

Are you gonna do it?

No.

So, uh, how are things with Luke?

Mmm, yeah, OK.

What is wrong with him?

I know. It's disgusting.

That... that is gross.

I'm not touching that rail.

WOMAN ON PHONE:

Shouldn't you be at school?

Yeah. I AM at school.

I'm at a payphone.

So, how's your holiday?

Oh, God. It's so sunny down here.

I wish you were here with me.

Yeah.

How's your father?

He's OK.

I haven't really seen him.

He's interstate at the moment.

What?! He left you guys alone?

No...

Please don't tell him.

I wasn't meant to say anything.

Unbelievable.

How did you get to school?

Marcus drove us.

Typical.

Anyway, I just...

...I just rang to say that I miss you.

Is everything alright? Are you OK?

Yeah.
