Drillbit Taylor Page #2

Synopsis: Homeless veteran Bob 'Drillbit' Taylor manages to enjoy life anyhow and even saves some cash for his dream, an 'all-paid' move to Alaska, even if that may take many years. His dream comes within reach when clever nerd Wade, has fat friend Ryan 'T-dog' and cocky shrimp Jim, all new to high-school, are bullied so badly by emancipated Filkins and his buddies that they advertise for a bodyguard. Only Drillbit seems affordable and not crazy, so he's hired and drains their pocket-money and home content. He's clueless how to protect them but gives them (bogus) self-defense classes.

but now we'll probably have to sit

in the front with the losers.

We'll be all right.

You have to have a proactive attitude

if you wanna be popular in high school.

People decide what they think of you

in the first five seconds.

I think you're a dork.

Oh, Wade.

- Oh, no.

- This is uncool.

We can't start high school like this.

You got to be shitting me. Come on.

- Please, am I dreaming here?

- No.

We're never allowed

to buy the same shirt again!

Whoever sees it first gets to buy it.

You guys should wear

red ribbons in your hair, too.

See? We both look like dorks.

Go change.

No! I'm the one who was

planning on wearing this.

Wade, I run the mile in 21 minutes!

How fast do you think I can go?

- Go! Hurry!

- I'm going!

Wade, bus!

- Perfect!

- Come on!

What a way to start high school, huh?

Let me guess.

Two-for-one sale at Hot Topic?

- Losers!

- Dorks!

We're dead.

First day of our high school careers.

All right, let's light this fuse

and see what happens.

- Let's go, man.

- All right.

Are you guys part of a bowling team?

Last one.

Hey, at least it'll be easy

to find each other.

Yeah. I'll just look

for the kid with the same shirt.

- Come on!

- No, you have to spin it a few times first

to get it to work.

Thank you.

No, wait! Wait!

- What are you guys doing? Guys!

- Now, shut it. Move!

- No, thanks.

- Guys!

- Get out of the way!

- Man!

- Here we go.

- But that... That's not for me.

- That's for my books!

- Okay, here we go.

- In there.

- I am not a book!

- Get in there!

- This is bad.

- This isn't my locker! Please!

- No, this is good.

At least we know we're not

the biggest dorks in school.

- Please, please, please!

- Maybe we should say something.

It's survival of the fittest.

I've got to say something.

I got to. I have to.

Say something? It's hilarious.

The kid fits in the locker. Come on.

- That's not funny.

- Somebody, help!

This is the dumbest thing

I've ever done.

- Help! Please!

- Stop!

- I mean, you don't have to, but...

- Harry Potter.

You need to keep your big mouth shut.

Yeah, that's what

I've been trying to tell him.

- Hey!

- Run! Everybody run! It's not safe here!

Hey, check this out.

Matching shirt geeks.

Oh, my God.

Yo, Ron, these b*tches

really wanna wear the same shirt.

Let's make them

wear the same shirt, huh?

Sounds good. Yeah.

The fat one here, the skinny one there,

and just let go.

There.

You better keep that sh*t on,

'cause if I see you trying to take it off,

you're dead.

And you know what happens

if one of you dies? Both of you dies.

'Cause you're Siamese queers, b*tches!

That's very cute.

You look like those Velcro monkeys
