INT. LINCOLN HIGH - GIRLS' BATHROOM - CONTINUOUS

LISA (V.O.)

She got life without parole, so Kansas

lives with her grandparents.

The next stall door opens and LUCY - cute, smart, very tidy -

EXITS, suddenly stopping to look down.

LISA (V.O.) (CONT'D)

Then there's Lucy...

She takes out a WHITE-OUT BOTTLE and touches a spot on her

already white Keds... stands... looks... then touches a spot

on the other shoe...

LISA (CONT'D) (V.O.) (CONT'D)

Geek extraordinaire - a walking left

brain. She's supposed to have this

genius I.Q.?

She then starts an obsessional frenzy of "whiting out" spots

all over her Keds. DIANE exits the final stall and takes

away Lucy's white-out.

LISA (V.O.) (CONT'D)

Truth is, she's an obsessive-compulsive

little freak.

DIANE/LISA

Squad joins Diane in a circle, putting their hands over her

hand - a la Madonna, backstage.

DIANE:

INT. LINCOLN HIGH - GYMNASIUM - DAY

PRINCIPAL SMITH, a man who burned out long ago, stands behind

a microphone on a small stage as he's done for 45 years.

The LINCOLN HIGH "FIGHTIN' LOG" MASCOT (looks like an angry

Tootsie Roll with legs and overly muscular arms) stands

beside him, pantomiming everything he says. STUDENTS fill

bleachers on either side.

LISA (V.O.)

The school year started off like normal.

Principal Smith gave his pep talk --

PRINCIPAL SMITH:

(reading from a list)

... and if you are approached to buy

drugs, let someone you trust know. If

you are thinking of harming yourself or

others, let someone know. If it burns

when you urinate, have milky seepage or

are being touched by an uncle - let

someone know...

Mascot looks at him, tries to pantomime.
