Dakota Skye Page #2

Synopsis: For as long as she could remember, Dakota Skye has been cursed with a super power. She has the ability to see the truth in any lie she hears. From small, harmless white lies, to the more devious kind, they have come from the people that she should trust the most; her family, friends and teachers. These lies have snowballed, leading to her becoming bitter and apathetic towards the world around her. Now seventeen, Dakota just watches the world happen around her, unmotivated to join it. She has a boyfriend who plays in a semi-popular local rock band and her best friend from childhood, but finds little joy in her own life. One day, Jonah comes into town. It only takes a few days before Dakota notices something about him that sets him apart from the other people in her life. He doesn't lie. Through her friendship with Jonah, her eyes are opened to the world around her and she sees that there is something out there more than all the lies. There is a possibility of something different... some

I'll bring it back tomorrow, okay?

Yeah. Sure.

Hey, guys.

Hey, Denise.

So, what time tonight?

- Say, like, 5:
00?

- 5:
00's good.

Do you want us to bring anything?

- Soda, maybe snacks.

- What are you guys talking about?

We're studying for the S.A.T.'s

at my house tonight, remember?

You said you'd come.

That does not sound like me.

The test is in 2 weeks.

We really need to study.

Oh, what is this? An intervention?

No.

- Let's go.

- So, you'll be there?

I don't even know

if I want to go to college.

Well, we already signed you up

for the next test.

That can't be legal.

- So, you'll be there?

- Sure.

Good.

Come on, guys.

God, it's hot here.

Hey, little girl.

You want some candy?

I don't know. My mommy told me

never to talk to strangers.

Oh, I guess it will be

our little secret, then, huh?

Mm, okay, if you got candy.

What time is it?

I don't know.

Like, 11:
00. 12:00, maybe.

- Don't you have school?

- Not until morning.

Where were you?

Where was I what?

Tonight. Denise's.

Oh, I guess I forgot. I'm sorry.

Oh, I was worried.

Why?

Well, for starters, you're not studying,

you're not sleeping,

you're barely keeping a C average,

it's 1:
00 in the morning,

and you're at freakin' Jim's.

Hey, leave Jim's out of this.

And you make a C average

sound bad.

Beth, seriously, I'm fine.

I am fine.

Kev, will you please

tell your girl to straighten up?

Well, she's sitting right there.

You tell her.

All right, fine. We're doing another

S. A. T. thing on Thursday night.

Will you please just come?

Oh, wow. Yeah. That's amazing.

I got to piss. Could you scoot?

Thanks.

You piss more than a girl.

Well, f*** me with a stiff midget.

Yo, T!

Holy sh*t, dude!

When the f*** did you get in town?

How did I know

I'd find you a**holes here?

Broadway Danny Rose.

- Hey.

- Good to see you.

You too, man.

Good to see you, Terry.

Oh, Jonah! it's been so long!

Yeah, yeah. How you been?

It's a pleasure.

Hey, Heather! Cup of coffee?

Sure thing, Jonah.

This is so weird.

- When did you get into town?

- Uh, last night.

- I started driving Sunday.

- You drove across country?

This kid's crazy.

Jonah's from New York.

My name is Jonah,

and I'm a starving actor.

Jonah's, like, one

of my best friends, too.

I thought I was your best friend.

You are, baby.

How long are you in town for?

Tell I get sick of you fucks.
