WARNER (CONT'D)

(continuing)

It's not like I have a choice, sweetheart

He follows her out.

8 EXT.' STREET - NIGHT 8

Elle teeters down the sidewalk as best she can in her three

inch heels, sobbing. Warner pulls up alongside her in his

convertible Saab.

WARNER:

C'mon. Let me take you home.

ELLE:

No.

WARNER:

Elle -- it's twenty miles back to campus.

Elle stops, thinks a minute, then gets in, still crying.

Catching her poofy little purse in the door. She re-opens

i t, yanking the purse back in. Warner pulls out.

9 EXT. DELTA GAMMA HOUSE - USC - NIGHT 9

Warner pulls up in front. It's a starry, romantic night.

Everything should be perfect. It's not.

Elle sits, still in shock, as tears continue to eke out.

WARNER:

Elle, believe me, I never expected to be

doing this, but I think it's the right

thing to do.

(CONTINUED)

10.

ELLE:

How can it be the right thing if we're

not together?

WARNER .

I have to think about my future. And what

people expect from me.

ELLE:

So you're breaking up with me because

you're afraid your family won't like me?

(through her tears)

Everybody likes me!

WARNER:

East coast people are different.

ELLE:

Just because I ' m not a Vanderbilt, all of

a sudden I ' m white trash? I grew up in

Bel Air, Warner! Across the street from

Aaron Spelling! I think most people

would agree that's way better than a

Vanderb ilt --
