Geek Charming Page #4

Synopsis: Dylan Shoenfield is the pink princess of the upscale Woodlands Academy. She has the coolest boyfriend, the most popular friends, and a brand-new it bag that everyone covets, but when she accidentally tosses her Serge Sanchez bag into a fountain, this princess comes face-to-face with her own personal frog - self-professed film geek Josh Rosen. In return for rescuing Dylan's bag, Josh convinces Dylan to let him film her for his documentary on high school popularity. Reluctantly, Dylan lets F-list Josh into her A-list world, and is shocked to realize that sometimes nerds can be pretty cool. But when Dylan's so-called prince charming of a boyfriend dumps her flat, her life and her social status comes to a crashing halt. Can Dylan win the Woodlands Academy Spring Formal Blossom Queen crown? Can Josh win the Woodlands Academy 5th Annual Film Festival? Can Dylan, with Josh's help, pull the pieces together to create her own happily-ever-after?

Aren't you already popular?

Let me ask you this,

does Sunshine Lemonade advertise?

Yeah, they have the commercials

with the waterskiing penguins.

Oh, I like the penguins.

Sunshine is already number one.

They don't need to advertise.

But they do it to stay number one.

Get it?

- Got it.

- Good.

Everyone thinks

it's so easy being the popular girl.

- It's so not easy.

- Girls, this is moi's movie.

- If they wanna add something, that's fin...

- But being popular is so not easy.

It's like royalty.

Or being the first lady.

You have to live up

to impossible standards of beauty

and you're expected

to be a good influence.

Like I help out the less fortunate.

Oh, you have a charity.

Absolument, fashion victims.

Hannah, the yellow scarf you're wearing

is washing you out.

Here.

Wear mine instead.

See?

I just sacrificed my own outfit for hers.

But it was worth it.

Oh!

Josh.

Sorry.

Oh!

Hey.

If you're a ten, you can only date a ten,

like Asher.

- Coming to watch me play volleyball?

- Mm-hm.

Dylan, he's blocking your light.

Why is there a talking nerd here?

Asher, we downloaded this.

Josh is making a movie

about me winning Blossom Queen.

Play nice?

Does it mess with my volleyball sched?

Oh, never. We'll work around it.

Got it. Thank you.

So this is what you do after school?

Shopping improves the economy.

Oh, how thoughtful.

I know, right? I care.

Right. So in a scientific sense,

how does popularity work?

Are the other Blossom Queen

candidates...?

There are levels of popularity.

Anywhere from

student-council-president popular

to only popular with your parents.

Sure, Nicole's cheerleader popular,

but is she Blossom Queen popular?

Doubtful.

So how does one move up

this social scale of popularity?

Well, one way

is hoping it'll rub off on you.

Popularity's contagious.

What? Like a cold?

Duh.

It's why Hannah and Lola battle

to be my better friend.

Their popularity comes from mine.

- Six-point-five percent sales tax on 395...

- Um...

Twenty-five sixty-seven.

Hate it, have it, have it, have it, have it,

hate it, I'll try some on just for fun.

How many shoes do you need?

One pair for each day of the year.

Why, how many do you own?

You're looking at them.

Clearly. Totes tragique.

So how long's this gonna take?

No filming in here.

Hey, here's your chance

to tell me something about Dylan.

Oh. Like what?

Like does your popularity really come

from hers?

We may not be as popular as Dylan,

but we do know some stuff.

Like, when Dylan doesn't get her way,

she goes full-on DQM.

Drama queen mode.

And Asher only dates Dylan

because she worships him.

And Asher loves being worshipped.
