Miles Page #2

Synopsis: Miles (newcomer Tim Boardman) is a high school senior who wants nothing more than to graduate, leave his rural town and move to the city to enrol in film school. Unfortunately, Miles' father has squandered his college fund on his mistress. With no cash and staring a dead-end future right in the face, Miles searches desperately for a way out, coming across a volleyball scholarship program that exists between his high school and the well-regarded Loyola University in Chicago. The catch? The only volleyball team that exists at his school is a girls' team.

I will take it myself!

I want it back!

It's my car!

Do that and I'll

call the police

for trespassing and theft!

You should be

ashamed of yourself!

Making excuses

for your daughter!

Breaking up a family!

Your family was

already broken.

You're disgusting!

You are going off the deep

end coming over here like this.

That car is in Jennifer's name,

it's hers!

Shame on you!

You need some help!

You need help!

Get out of my face or

I'll call the police!

I'll call the police on you!

How dare...

Hey, open the door!

Hey miles, Mrs. Armstrong

is waiting to see you.

It's good to see you back.

Thanks.

So how's everything at home?

We're okay.

Oh good, that's great.

We're sure glad to

see you back, miles.

Thanks, Mrs. Armstrong.

So, what can I do for you?

I'm here because I'm

looking for a new college.

Oh, all right then.

Tell me what you're thinking.

Okay, I'm looking for

a school in Chicago.

I wanted to do the film

program at Columbia college

but it's too expensive.

Right, right.

Well it is an arts school.

Um...

You know, Springfield community

has a films studies program.

And I hear the one at

Southern is quite good.

Yeah, but it needs

to be in Chicago.

I'm afraid if I

stay here one more

day than I have to, I'll get

stuck here like everyone else.

Oh, right.

So is it too late

for scholarships?

Well, I have a list.

This is a pretty

common question.

So I keep this list of

college scholarships

that are available in Chicago.

Why don't you have

a look at that?

What's a

national merit scholar?

Oh, uh...

You don't quite

qualify for that so,

we should keep looking.

Oh.

Men's volleyball scholarship

to Loyola university.

What's this?

It's just what it says.

Well that's in

Chicago isn't it?

Yes but you'd have to

be on the volleyball team.

Then I'll get on

the team, I'm good.

Sweetie, it's a girls' team.

Well is there a law

saying that a boy

can't play on a girls' team?

You know, we did

have this come up

with a girl in football

a few seasons ago.

And because of title nine,

we let her play,

but we never had a boy

wanna be on a girls' team.

I mean...

I'm just saying I think that

maybe you should continue to

look for other options.

Yeah, you're probably right.

Yeah.

So, I'm gonna need you

to warm the girls up.

Okay, start peppering...

hey coach.

Is it too late to tryout?

For who, for you?

Yeah I wanna play.

Well this is a girls' team.

Well if there's a boys' team

I'd be there.

Come on, please?

All right, well what the heck.

Go suit up and be back in five.

Okay.

All right, ladies.

Please don't expect any

favors or any free rides.

This is a challenging sport.
