Spud Page #2

Synopsis: It's South Africa, 1990. Two major events are about to happen: The release of Nelson Mandela and, more importantly, it's Spud Milton's first year at an elite boys only private boarding school. John Milton is a boy from an ordinary background who wins a scholarship to a private school in Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa. Surrounded by boys with nicknames like Gecko, Rambo, Rain Man and Mad Dog, Spud has his hands full trying to adapt to his new home. Along the way Spud takes his first tentative steps along the path to manhood. (The path it seems could be a rather long road). Spud is an only child. He is cursed with parents from well beyond the lunatic fringe and a senile granny. His dad is a fervent anti-communist who is paranoid that the family domestic worker is running a shebeen from her room at the back of the family home. His mom is a free spirit and a teenager's worst nightmare, whether it's shopping for Spud's underwear in the local supermarket, or sneaking food into her handbag at sc

My quest for sporting success

do not go so well.

Your defense game is just as

through the hole like a whore panties.

In the worst players,

I have been unfortunate enough to train.

I have a greater chance of being

pregnant than being cricketers.

It's time for lunch,

so get with you.

Rain Man and Spud,

rode my bed.

Spud, do you want all at school

must think you're a sissy?

It did not expect to.

And therefore I with a mission.

It becomes dangerous.

It gets crazy.

We can be kicked out of school.

We may even die.

Who is on a prohibited

completely mad dip?

I will not.

But Gekko,

there must be no witnesses.

One for all, all for one.

- Spud?

- No witnesses.

Spud!

Wait!

We did it!

Guys! Where's Cool?

Guys ...

Try to get him free.

Good grief! We get kicked out.

Shut up! We will not be thrown out.

Do not be such a sissy.

Rambo saved the day.

He said that Fede was stuck because

he would visit the Holy Spirit.

It's a miracle!

- Well done.

- Establishing!

I know exactly

what I had last night.

What do you think? We were sleeping.

Ask anyone of us.

Okay? Is it true Milton?

A boy was close to death!

Train in a dip, or did not you?

Six strokes for each of you,

when I come back after the weekend.

Take care,

I will think of you.

Super ... Thank you, Spud.

The 158 km long trip home

felt infinite

- and fattened breath smelled of fish.

did nothing,

I was on my way home.

Get into the car. Your father is gone

mad. I kill him.

Mother not exaggerating. Dad has built

our house into a bunker.

Open the gate!

What is this all about?!

Marge and Denise from book club will

by! How do they come in?

- Remove barbed wire!

- So are we vulnerable to attack!

- From who?!

- Communists!

Maybe the school is not so bad.

Dad was mad. He says that

we will live in poverty.

He fired Innocence.

He thinks she is a terrorist.

Is it really to live in poverty?

And then I saw her.

- There for a lightning bolt through my body.

- This is Marge's daughter, Debbie.

She said a single word, which almost

knocked me over with its beauty.

I promised Debs,

that she could swim in your pool.

Jump in, Johnny, it's hot.

I'm in love with a mermaid.

- I'm really sorry.

- Forget it!

Next!

Think about what you love most,

so overcomes you pain.

Next!

Bend forward.

Jacket.

It's going to hurt.

Kiss me, John.

If we is destined to die, it is

enough to constitute a loss to the country

And if life's undes, the fewer men,

the greater part of the credit

We few, we happy few, we brothers all

For he who today share his blood with

me shall be my brother

Would you repeat that, sir?

Come on, Johnny!

That's my boy!
