DIANE:

(taking the hand-piece)

I'll just ask the question myself... "Is

Jack Bartlett interested in me?"

As the hand-piece starts to move on the board, we:

INT. JACK'S SPLIT-LEVEL - GARAGE - MORNING

Jack (with a red Ked print on his cheek) stands with THREE

FOOTBALL PLAYERS looking under the hood of his '75 GTO.

They've all got one hand in back pocket, the other wrapped

around a beer.

FOOTBALL PLAYER #1

You do the bondo yourself?

JACK:

Yeah.

FOOTBALL PLAYER #2

Sure-is-sweet.

FOOTBALL PLAYER #1

What'll she do?

JACK:

Never opened her up.

FOOTBALL PLAYER #2

S-weet.

JACK:

Who was the girl who kicked me in the

head yesterday?

FOOTBALL PLAYER #1

Diane Weston.

FOOTBALL PLAYER #2

Now she sure is sweet.

DISSOLVE TO:

INT. LINCOLN HIGH - AUDITORIUM - DAY

SIGN hangs above the stage. "HOMECOMING KING AND QUEEN

CANDIDATES." A row of STUDENT CANDIDATES, including Jack,

Diane and Lisa, sit behind a BUTCH GIRL at the podium.

LISA (V.O.)

Look, I'll be honest with you. Most of

us realized we didn't have a whore's

chance in heaven with Jack the day of

candidate speeches.

As the Butch Girl concludes her speech, she holds a sign over

her head which reads, "4-H - A WAY OF LIFE!"

INT. SCHOOL AUDITORIUM - LATER

A GEEKY GUY stands at the podium.

GEEKY GUY:

As the A.V. Club candidate, I think, for

the first time in fifty years, we should

say --

(nervous)

NO to a football player as king!

Two HIGH-PITCHED MALE VOICES cheer O.S.

GEEKY GUY (CONT'D)

Vote brains over braun!

A FOOTBALL flies INTO FRAME, hitting Geeky Guy on the

FOREHEAD.

INT. SCHOOL AUDITORIUM - LATER

Jack stands at the podium, unable to speak because the CROWD

IS CHEERING! He's handsome as hell, sweet and genuine. You

can't help but love him and you really want to f*** him.

LISA (V.O.)

It was the first time most of us even

heard Jack speak.

JACK:

Whoa...Thanks, uh - WOW. Uh, hey,

alright...okay, uh --
