Hey, how's that script?
Heartless Romantic says:
..
Heartless Romantic says:
-cough-
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Did you talk to Jen?
Heartless Romantic says:
Yeah.
Heartless Romantic says:
She told me what to write about.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
And what are you supposed to write about?
Heartless Romantic would like to send you the file "script.txt" (2
Kb).
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Everyone leaves and Jim and Gwen are left behind to talk about it.
People are comforting one another, etc. etc. etc.
..Ou..
Heartless Romantic says:
Yeah.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
-chants-
Melodrama, melodrama
Heartless Romantic says:
yep.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Max Power totally has to mention Trent Steele.
Heartless Romantic says:
HAHAHA.
Heartless Romantic says:
"My partner, Trent Steele, could not join me."
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Yes.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Adam's gonna fuck it up though.
Heartless Romantic says:
So?
Heartless Romantic says:
It's for you and I.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
-I- should be the detective.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
And everyone else.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
..I'm really hyper.
Heartless Romantic says:
Yes.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
I also think that either Gwen or Jim should flip out at the
detective:
"Kill him!?! I/He didn't kill him; all I/he did was egg his car..
-detective stares at him/her, obviously isn't buying the story-..
LOOK OUTSIDE, IT'S EGGED!!!
Heartless Romantic says:
HAHAHAHA.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Or something like that.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
And then Coach Reeves or Ms. Jackson should come in and be like,
"someone egged my car".
Heartless Romantic says:
hahaha.
Heartless Romantic says:
And Jim would be like, "I KILL JAMES!" and run away.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
We're brilliant.
Heartless Romantic says:
YES!
Heartless Romantic says:
He says, "i KILL James" too. Without the 'ed.
Heartless Romantic says:
Because he's smart.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
He should say it like Renfield (from Dracula Dead and Loving It)
and then run off into the corner all crazy like.. with shifty eyes.
Heartless Romantic says:
HAHAHA.
Heartless Romantic says:
Fabulous!
Heartless Romantic says:
Like the evil dog! You knew that dog was evil!
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
He was the evilest dog I've ever seen.
Heartless Romantic says:
Can I empty my "tmp" folder?
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
..?
Heartless Romantic says:
n/m..
Heartless Romantic says:
I'll figure it out.
Heartless Romantic says:
We rule.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Yes.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
I think at the end Prudence should have a monologue lamenting about
how awful he was to her and now he's dead and she's weirded out by it
and she should leave and Jim and Gwen should be left talking about how
crappy life is and by the end of it everyone in the audience should
want to die.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
-does death dance-
Heartless Romantic says:
..
Heartless Romantic says:
I really like that.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
That's right.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Use it.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Use everything.
Heartless Romantic says:
I might.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
It will be quite the entertaining script.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
and you -points- better use everything, cause I swear, if that
brilliant Renfield scene isn't in there -shakes fist-
Heartless Romantic says:
...
Heartless Romantic says:
-runs away- NEVER!
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
-shakes fist, runs after-
Heartless Romantic says:
AIE!
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
You'll get yours!
Heartless Romantic says:
No one's ever run after me before!
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
I don't think that anyone's ever really threatened like I have
before.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
*threatened you
Heartless Romantic says:
That's true.
Heartless Romantic says:
Are you going to post this conversation on your site? I think you
should.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
I think I will.
Heartless Romantic says:
Excellent.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
..You know.. I could print the script for you when you finish..
-smirk-
Heartless Romantic says:
You could.
Heartless Romantic says:
And I could freak Jen out..
Heartless Romantic says:
And not send her it.
Heartless Romantic says:
And be like, "OMG!
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Yes.
Heartless Romantic says:
....
Heartless Romantic says:
wait.
Heartless Romantic says:
No.
Heartless Romantic says:
You're going to change it.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
No.
Heartless Romantic says:
I can't write the detective's lines...
Heartless Romantic says:
lik,e, what's he supposed to say!!
Heartless Romantic says:
JESUS!.
Heartless Romantic says:
*Lights come up once more. It is still the Gymnasium. However, an
authoritative figure stands among the students. They are huddled
together appropriately. Jim and Gwen are standing off to the sides,
whispering to one another. The detective, Max Power, is holding a
notepad. He looks around.
Heartless Romantic says:
That's what I got.
Heartless Romantic says:
-waits for brilliancee-
Heartless Romantic says:
-sigh and looks at watch- Tsk. Brilliance is late again today.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
No, the lights should come up and the detective should walk into
the gym with his notepad, writing stuff and Ms. Jackson should walk up
to him and say "Thank god you're here" (or something like that)
and he should be like, I came as soon as I could ma'am, my partner,
Trent Steele, was just called down for another case, it slowed me
down. Now, where is the body?
Ms. Jackson leads him to the body.. doesn't go near it (perhaps
it's in a different room) just points (she's really traumatized).
......
Heartless Romantic says:
Cool!
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
The detective, takes a good look at the body (I'm assuming we
don't see the body), so we see him looking offstage..? Maybe we do see
the body.
..How did Denise kill him..?
Heartless Romantic says:
Knife.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Ouch.
Heartless Romantic says:
Yeap.
Heartless Romantic says:
She lost it.
Heartless Romantic says:
We don't see the body or the detective.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
So they're both offstage?
Heartless Romantic says:
Yes.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Then we can't see him poke it.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
or step in blood.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Damn.
Heartless Romantic says:
lol
Heartless Romantic says:
*Lights come up once more. Still the gym. Ms. Jackson is looking
worried. A man enters. MAX STEELE! He crosses to her.
Ms. Jackson: Oh, thank god you're here.
Max Power: I came as soon as I could ma'am, my partner, Trent
Steele, was just called down for another case, it slowed me down. Now,
where is the body?
Ms Jackson (clearly shaken by what she has witnessed): F-follow me…
*They exit, go offstage to view "the body". Students begin
murmuring and eyeing one another.
Brent: It wasn't me! I was here the whole time!
*Jim drags Gwen upstage.
Jim: I didn't do it.. did you?
Gwen: No! Of course not..
Jim: Everyone's going to say it's me…
Gwen: So? I know it wasn't. What are you going to do?
Jim: I don't know…
*Just then Max Power and Ms. Jackson reenter.
Heartless Romantic says:
I got that so far.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Okay, he's seen this sort of thing before so he's not really
shocked, just amazed at the amount of blood, he mumbles to himself,
well, this is quite the bloody mess now isn't it. Then he could call
in the homicide unit to clean the body up.
"yes, this is detective Max Steele, I'm here at Birmington high, a
student has been murded, I need homicide clean up"
..Or something that sound more official than homicide clean up.
Heartless Romantic says:
Great!
Heartless Romantic says:
Max Power (more to himself): What a bloody mess… (he pulls out a
talking device thingy) Yes, this is Detective Max Power, I'm going to
need a forensics team down at Burmington High. There's been a murder..
(pauses, listening) .. yes, several stab wounds. (more pausing) Yes,
thank you.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Great.
Heartless Romantic says:
I've been watching CSI.
Heartless Romantic says:
Good thing.
Heartless Romantic says:
-taps forehead-
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
He can walk back onstage where Ms. Jackson is standing (trembling
maybe), back against the wall beside the doorway or whatever.
"I'm going to need to ask you a few questions.."
And then we focus in on someone else's conversation.. Billy and
Britney, they can talk about it for a while and then the detective
could come and talk to Britney.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Or we can do Gwen and Jim first.
Heartless Romantic says:
..
Heartless Romantic says:
Um, I think she wanted Jim and Gwen first.
Heartless Romantic says:
THe order is in the file I sent you.
Heartless Romantic says:
Who should be the first to accuse Jim of the murder?
Heartless Romantic says:
(to Ms. Jackson) May I speak with you outside briefly?
Ms. Jackson (flustered): Why yes.. of course.
*They exit once more. Students start murmuring again.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Go to the skaters and they can be talking about how they think Gwen
and Jim did it.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Or just Jim.
Heartless Romantic says:
Just Jim. "til Gwen starts defending him.
Heartless Romantic says:
Then they're like, "Oh! It was Jim AND Gwen" and Daryl can be like,
"..I can't believe I asked her out."
Heartless Romantic says:
What a psycho.
Heartless Romantic says:
Which reverses YOUR damage to my character.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Then he could talk to the skaters, then Gwen or Jim.
Heartless Romantic says:
What s ec.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
..?
Heartless Romantic says:
Focus on Kyle, Shauna and Daryl. Kyle has his arm around Shauna (dur).
Kyle: I don't know.. I know that we were all here… but.. I don't
know….
Shauna: What about that quiet nerd?
Daryl (thinking): You mean Jim?
Kyle: …He hated James more than anything. Damn.. I think it was
Jim…
Shauna (agreeing): You're totally right Kyle.
Heartless Romantic says:
How's that?
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
..I don't think Kyle should say damn..
Heartless Romantic says:
Okay. But, how is it?
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
It's good..
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
I don't know about nerd either.
Heartless Romantic says:
Wait.
Heartless Romantic says:
I got it.
Heartless Romantic says:
Focus on Kyle, Shauna, Daryl and Victoria (she was dancing with
Daryl last we saw her). Kyle has his arm around Shauna (dur).
Kyle: I don't know.. I know that we were all here… but.. I don't
know….
Shauna: What about that quiet nerd?
Daryl (thinking): You mean Jim?
Kyle: …He hated James more than anything…
Victoria: I think you're absolutely right. There's no one more
perfect for it.. and besides, did he or did he not leave the dance? I
think so. (pleased with herself) We've found the murderer already.
(pulling out a compact to fluff her hair. Kyle, Shauna and Daryl are
staring at her) What? It's too look good for my photo in the paper. I
can see the headlines now, "Victoria Grayson solves Murder at
Burmington High!". (pleased with herself)
Heartless Romantic says:
Fine. guy.
Heartless Romantic says:
That way, Jade gets more lines as well.
Heartless Romantic says:
And it's kinda funny.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
I think you should cut out, "I think you're absolutely right."
Heartless Romantic says:
Fine.
Heartless Romantic says:
Okay.
Heartless Romantic says:
But, that's good>?
Heartless Romantic says:
So where should I go from there?
Heartless Romantic says:
The Detective returning and then going, "Did anyone noticee any one
else leaving the general vincinity before the murder?"
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Go with that for now.. I'm getting tummy pain, and cramps.. shit..
I'll be back in half an hour.. will still be here?
Heartless Romantic says:
Yes. I will.
Heartless Romantic says:
I'll try and write it. But it's hard.
Heartless Romantic says:
You're good.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Alright.
Heartless Romantic says:
Wait.
Heartless Romantic says:
Did you wanna phone me?
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Umm.. I don't know.
Maybe, just write whatever, I'll help edit it when I get back.. I
need tylenol.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Okay. I'm back.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Whatcha got?
Heartless Romantic says:
I MISSED YOU!@
Heartless Romantic says:
Okay.
Heartless Romantic says:
*Victoria strides forward, half facing Jim as she extends her arm
and points to Jim.
Victoria: He did, detective.
*More murmuring. Jim looks a little angry. Gwen just shakes her
head and sighs. Brittany bounces in. She is shaking pom-poms. She
notices everyone's quiet. She walks over to Billy.
Brittany (whispering): Gee Billy! What's wrong with everyone…
Billy: I dunno Brit… (he notices her pom-poms) But hey! You found
your pom-poms!
Brittany: You're right, I did! That meany James took them but I
found them.. (idiot grin)
Billy: Brit, I think James was homicided. (yes, that mistake is
correct. Homocided, like homogenized?)
Brittany: What's that Billy?
Billy: I think it's like milk!
Brittany: Oh, okay!
*They bounce happily amongst themselves. Victoria is still staring
down Jim. She continues talking to Max Power.
Victoria: Yes, Detective. It was that man right there before you
that did it. He killed James Riley. He hated James Riley and there's
no denying it.
Jim (quietly): You're right Victoria.. I did hate James Riley. But
I didn't kill him.
Heartless Romantic says:
Jim (quietly): You're right Victoria.. I did hate James Riley. But
I didn't kill him.
Victoria (hands on hips): There's no denying it Jim. You always had
it in for James.
Max Power (clearing throat): I think I can take it from here.
(walking closer to Jim, who's stepped away from Gwen a bit) So, where
did you go when you left the gym?
Jim: Not to kill James Riley.
Gwen: He's telling the truth. He was with me!
*more murmurs. Gwen was in on it too? Dare I say it? SUSPICION
ABOUNDS!
Max Power: Then, what exactly were you two doing then?
Heartless Romantic says:
Jim: We got a bit bored of the dance and went to talk and get air.
Is that a crime?
Max Power: No, but murder is. And quite the serious one at that.
(glances to Gwen) For both of you.
Jim: Listen.. what can we say that will prove we didn't do it?
Max Power: Tell me, what else were you doing and where were you?
Gwen: We were sitting on the front steps of the school.
Jim: Just talking. As I said.
Max Power: You didn't feel the need to inform anyone of where you
were going?
Gwen (acidly): We're seventeen, I think we can handle going outside
for a few moments.
*Jim touches her arm to be quiet. Everyone is just staring at them.
Brittany waves her pom-poms.
Brittany: Well, James left! I saw him leave! I saw him in the
hallway too.
*Attention turns to Brit.
Max Power: You mean, you saw James Riley alive?
Brittany: Well, sort of. He looked like he was sleeping in red
paint. Maybe it was for art class? (looks to Billy then shrugs).
Max Power (almost dumbfounded): Red paint? Like blood?
Brittany: Exactly!
Max Power: Miss… who was standing by him? Anyone?
Brittany: Well, it was kinda dark. An
Heartless Romantic says:
And besides, I had my pom poms! I was thinking of a new cheer for
Billy! Seeing as James was becoming an artist and all.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Great.
Heartless Romantic says:
You like?
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:

Heartless Romantic says:

beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Sure.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
It's good.
Heartless Romantic says:

Heartless Romantic says:
-sigh-
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
I'm too tired to critique
Heartless Romantic says:
alright.
Heartless Romantic says:
I'm almost finished. This doesn't have to be long.
Heartless Romantic says:
Did we give Denise a last name?
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Umm..
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
i don't know.
Heartless Romantic says:
I don't think so.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Max Power (clearing throat): I think I can take it from here.
(walking closer to Jim, who's stepped away from Gwen a bit) So, you're
name's James, and the murder victim's name was James..?
Jim: ..yes..
Detective: Intriguing
Heartless Romantic says:
Hahahah.
Heartless Romantic says:
Fabulosu.
Heartless Romantic says:
*Just then, Denise enters. She is looking slightly disheveled, as
if after a scuffle. Perhaps her T-shirt is twisted or something.. as
if someone was grabbing at her.
Lana: Denise! Where have you been! (walking to her) Gwen and Jim
killed James…
Denise (casually): Oh.. they did? Gee… (walks over to Jim and Gwen,
looks at Jim) Jim.. (then Gwen) Gwen… why are you taking credit for my
handiwork? That's very, very rude.
Jim: Denise, what are you talking about?
Denise: Taking credit for killing James…. (she turns away) It was
all my idea! (back to them) And you two are trying to take credit it
for it when everyone should be thanking ME for ridding the world of
James Riley.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
..I wanna be Denise..
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
I can be crazy.
Heartless Romantic says:
Jim (shocked): Denise.. you killed James?
Denise: I did. And I'd do it again if I had the chance.
*Everyone is silent. Denise continues.
Denise: What? You all expected me to continue to take abuse from
him? You should all be ashamed. You saw what was happening yet did
nothing to stop it… tsk tsk tsk! Horrible human beings, you are!
Heartless Romantic says:
Please, PLEASE see the irony in that.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
hahaha
Heartless Romantic says:

Heartless Romantic says:
Liz is gunna fuck it up.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
Yeah.

Heartless Romantic says:
I'm sorry.
Heartless Romantic says:
I'm writing like a manic.
Heartless Romantic says:

Heartless Romantic says:
Fin!
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:

Heartless Romantic says:
I have to format it still.
Heartless Romantic says:
Then I'll send it to you.
Heartless Romantic says:
There's a very touching scene at the end.
beauty's just another word I'm not certain how to spell. says:
With Gwen and jim, I'm assuming.
Heartless Romantic says:
Yep.
