Do you want to see the tape? Do you want to see it? Tawny nods her head. PROFESSOR DOOLEY (CONTINUED) Do I want to see the tape? On second thought, maybe we shouldn't see the tape. Kind of embarrassing. TAWNY First, I am very, very, very, very sorry Professor Dooley. Second, it will never happen again. PROFESSOR DOOLEY Your damn right it won't happen again because I'm recommending that you be expelled from school. TAWNY Please. If you just reconsider. My parents are going to kill me if -- PROFESSOR DOOLEY (laughing) Just kidding. I was acting. My daughter enrolled me in an acting class a month ago. Suppose to help you think clearly. TAWNY If I'm not expelled... PROFESSOR DOOLEY Here's what I'll do. You are demoted from the special project. You will assist Lee, and you will return the cage in the morning or I will have to contact the proper authorities. TAWNY Yes, Professor Dooley. Tawny gets up to leave.

SHELDON Well then, I guess there will be no more papers for you and your frat brothers -- like the one I wrote last week for your investment class. What did you get on that paper? STAN B plus. SHELDON (reaffirming) A B plus. STAN (to Pleg) Let them in. (to Sheldon) In an hour, I'm gonna look up, and you 2 better be gone. Scott pushes his way through the door. He scans the atmosphere -- the lesbian session going on in the living room, people dancing. His eyes stop when he spots Nia and Tawny. NIA AND TAWNY NIA Look who just walked in. TAWNY I'd rather not. NIA I bet you think about him all the time. In the morning, in the shower when you -- TAWNY Shut up. NIA Hold my cell. TAWNY (taking the cell phone) Your not going over there are you?

TAWNY Oh my god! What kind of party is this? OSCAR It's a party. Calm down. TAWNY How could they degrade themselves like this? OSCAR Beer. Drugs. Peer pressure.

Am I supposed to know who you are? OSCAR Well, yeah. TAWNY Get lost. Tawny heads upstairs. She moves down the hallway. She stops at the bathroom door, which is slightly open. She peeks in to find a frat brother getting a blowjob. Tawny moves to the end of the hallway. She hears something pipping out from the behind the door of the last room. Sounds like laughing. Tawny places her hand on the door and slowly pushes it open, just enough to peek through. Her eyes widen at the sight -- Lee doing a line of coke off the stomach of another girl. Thinking quickly, Tawny films the act with Nia's cell phone. ON CELL PHONE SCREEN Lee snorts the last line of coke, then licks the gils belly button. TAWNY (low) Fuck you. FADE TO BLACK.

OLD TOWN TAVERN -- NIGHT Seated at the bar, almost out of place amongst the after work crowd, is Scott. Scott is a master of balancing himself on that thin line of popularity and loneliness.

CAR -- MOVING -- NIGHT Professor Allen reaches for his cup of coffee as the car pulls to a stop at a red light. Professor Allen takes a sip.

(to Scott) They have a squad car in the vicinity. Scott gets out the car and looks over the twisted mess. His eyes move to the trunk, which has been jarred open. Something has caught his eye. It's the ripped box with the towel over it. Intrigued, Scott removes the towel. His eyes widen at the sight -- a box full of kiddie porn tapes. PROFESSOR ALLEN (O.S.) What are you doing?

VICKI I feel the same way sometimes -- Vicki leans in, accidentally knocking over Professor Allen's beer. VICKI Oh my god! I'm so, so sorry. Vicki grabs a towel and cleans up the beer. PROFESSOR ALLEN No problem. Just beer. VICKI How clumsy of me. Let me get you another. Vicki moves to get another drink. She keeps her eyes on Professor Allen, who's wallowing in self-pitty. Vicki returns with a fresh beer. VICKI On the house. PROFESSOR ALLEN Don't worry about it. Accidents happen. They happen to me all the time. VICKI I've been taking acting classes. I saw a guy on Good Morning America, helps to relieve stress and anxiety. PROFESSOR ALLEN What's stressful about being a stripper? VICKI Think it's so easy taking off your clothes in front of these slobs every night? You think these jerks care if I'm getting evicted, or if my car won't start? Think they care if my mother's sick? All they care about is my boobs and ass. PROFESSOR ALLEN Your right. I apologize. VICKI Apology accepted... Cliff. (re: untouched beer) You want another? Professor Allen gets the point. He takes a sip of his beer. VICKI You don't seem like our usual customer. I'm not saying your a fruit, but I have a good sense of people. I can tell this is the last place you want to be... just like me. PROFESSOR ALLEN Your still young to correct your mistakes. Don't think that you can't. Vicki moves to the other end of the bar to tend to a customer, though Professor Allen's words still stay fresh in her head. She comes back, pours herself a shot and downs it. VICKI Want a lap dance? PROFESSOR ALLEN I don't want to be rude. This is your job and... I just want to enjoy my beer and go home. SCOTT What are you fucking kidding me? Of course you want a lap dance. PROFESSOR ALLEN No. Wait... Vicki -- Vicki comes from behind the bar, grabs Professor Allen by the hand and leads him into -- CHAMPAGNE ROOM Vicki pushes Professor Allen on the pink couch. She dances to the music, shaking her ass in the Professor's face. He wipes his brow as Vicki removes his glasses and rubs them against her chest. PROFESSOR ALLEN Be careful. Those are my only pair. Vicki climbs on top of Professor Allen. VICKI I'll be gentle. She takes Professor Allen's hands and places them on her thighs. VICKI Just relax Cliff. Your safe here.

PROFESSOR ALLEN Are you in college? VICKI No. Not now. Just between you and me, I've been saving my money so I can go... go back I mean. I figure I gotta shake my ass for another 5 months before I have enough to quit. PROFESSOR ALLEN What are you going to study? VICKI Art. I was good in high school. The best actually. I even won this competition when I was 16. Then my mother got sick, and I had to help out with the bills. PROFESSOR ALLEN I know someone in the admissions office. If your serious, I can put in a good word for you. VICKI You would seriously do that? Or do I have to do something in return for you? PROFESSOR ALLEN I want to help if I can. If your serious about school, why not. At least I can do something good today. Professor Allen pulls out a pad and pen from his blazer pocket. He jots down a name and number, hands it to Vicki. PROFESSOR ALLEN Call her. Tell her your a friend of mine and that I referred you to this number. BAR Scott pours Berry another glass of wine. BERRY We gonna sit here all night? SCOTT You Batgirl or something? You got some place else to be? BERRY We could go in the back room and I can give you a private showing. SCOTT That sounds good. The only problem is I don't pay for cunt. Why don't you find another prick to squeeze. Berry throws her wine in Scott's face. BERRY Faggot. I wasted 15 minutes on you. SCOTT Bitch. Berry storms off. Scott heads to the bathroom to clean himself off. Berry heads toward BRUCE, one of the bouncers. CHAMPAGNE ROOM Vicki gets dressed. She hands Professor Allen his glasses back. PROFESSOR ALLEN Thanks. VICKI So, how rough exactly was your day? PROFESSOR ALLEN My wife left me for good. I got kicked out my house. My car is totaled, and I have to sleep in a second rate motel for who knows how long. VICKI I get off in 30 minutes. If you want... I can give you a ride. Hearing a commotion, they exit the room. They see Bruce dragging Scott out the bathroom and outside the establishment. EXT.

Professor Allen and Vicki push there way out. PROFESSOR ALLEN Wait! He's just a college student... just a kid. SCOTT Shut up. BRUCE I make my bones beating up college kids like you. (to Professor Allen) You his gay uncle or something? PROFESSOR ALLEN I'm his history teacher. The bouncers share a laugh. BRUCE Get the fuck outta here. Bruce moves to push Professor Allen away. In one motion, Professor Allen grabs Bruce's wrist and flips him over on his back. VICKI Cliff. SCOTT Holy shit. PROFESSOR ALLEN I don't want to hurt you. Just let us be on our way. Bruce gets to his feet. BERRY Maybe he's right Bruce. Let's -- BRUCE This mothafucka's gonna pay. Bruce advances toward Professor Allen. PROFESSOR ALLEN I warned you once. I'm not going to do it again. I'm just defending myself. BRUCE Nobody embarrasses me in front of my girl. Bruce lunges at the Professor, who takes him down rather easily. Two COP CARS pull up. They race over to the pack of people gathered at the side of the building. They find Bruce on his back screaming like a bitch, Professor Allen on top of him, holding him down in an arm lock. The cops whip out their pepper spray and douse Professor Allen. He crumbles to the pavement, crying in pain. EXT. CANDY LAND GENTLEMAN'S CLUB -- NIGHT From the back of a squad car, Professor Allen watches as the cops place Bruce in the back of the other car. Professor Allen's eyes are blood shot red. He glances at the doorway to see Vicki, looking on, worried. Scott approaches one of the cops. After a beat, the cop escorts Scott over to the car. COP Your nephew wants to tell you something. Scott sticks his head through the window and talks low. SCOTT Don't forget about our little arrangement. The cops get into the car and they pull off. SERIES OF SHOTS Professor Allen is taken to the police station and fingerprinted. They take Professor Allen's mug shot. At Candy Land, Vicki leaves for the night.

He runs the cold water, splashing some on his still red eyes. He heads for the fridge, realizing there's nothing in it -- PROFESSOR ALLEN I'm sorry. All I have is water. VICKI (O.S.) That's alright. Professor Allen searches for cups. He takes the complementary coffee pot and fills it with water. PROFESSOR ALLEN I'm terribly sorry Vicki. I just realized I have no cups either. Hope the coffee pot isn't -- Professor Allen re-enters the room to find Vicki sitting naked on the bed. PROFESSOR ALLEN So, I guess your not thirsty? FADE TO BLACK.

PIERCE Can't do that. My brother has a soft spot in his heart. Hell, I wouldn't even be here if it weren't for said soft spot. If it were me, you cocksuckers would pay up front. But it's not up to me. Ergo, our current dilemma. TOMMY Did you just say ergo? You get that from the Matrix Einstein? Pierce throws the soda bottle at Tommy, bursting against the wall above him. PIERCE Where's the fucking money? TOMMY I'm fucking broke, man. PIERCE I'm busting you out Tommy. TOMMY Fine. Take my coat. Tommy points to his leather jacket hanging on the closet door. PIERCE What the fuck do I want with your jacket? It's not even my size. TOMMY Get it tailored. PIERCE Value. I need something of value. TOMMY My grandmother gave that to me on my 18th birthday. PIERCE Like I give a shit. Pierce eyes the computer on the desk. It's state of the art and it's perfect. Tommy follows his eyes to the computer, and he knows there's no way of talking him out of it. TOMMY Fine. At least let me burn a copy of my porno's before you take it. INT. APARTMENT -- DAY Seated on the leather couch is SETH, 23. He's watching sports coverage from 3 different TV's. Scott enters and moves to the refrigerator. He rummages through it's contents. SCOTT When was the last time you went shopping? SETH When was the last time you got laid? SCOTT I don't know. Ask your mother. Scott removes a carton of orange juice and begins to drink it straight from the carton. He sits down next to Seth. SETH How's it looking? SCOTT I heard on the street about you and some football player. You fucking his girl or something? SETH Vincent. SCOTT That asshole linebacker? SETH Which reminds me, I need you to pick up 3 bills from him. Today. SCOTT What? SETH Motherfucker said he didn't bet what he bet. He knows what he bet, and I know what he bet. He doesn't want to pay up. SCOTT I got plans later. SETH How's it going to look if a bookie can't collect? SCOTT Where's Kitty? Why can't she do this? SETH Her mother died. She said she needs a vacation. I gave her 2 weeks off, get her head straight. SCOTT Vacation? All she does is sit around here smoking weed and painting her nails. SETH It's in your job description. SCOTT Since when? SETH Since now, motherfucker. SCOTT Is there a raise involved? SETH Your the worker. Do the fucking work, or I can easily find someone else who will. Scott downs the rest of the orange juice and throws the carton on the floor. He heads for the door. SCOTT I'm tired of your bullshit. SETH Then get a regular job. INT. DORMITORY -- EVENING Pierce and Nate stand in the doorway, Pierce still holding the computer. NATE What am I supposed to do with this? PIERCE Watch porn? NATE I already have a computer. I don't need another. PIERCE Can I at least leave this thing here? It's heavy as a motherfucker. NATE Where's the money? PIERCE (re: computer) Your looking at it. NATE No. Sell it. I want cash. PIERCE Cash? I've been lugging this thing around campus, looking like an ass your you. How come you have to take IOU's from these crackers? You know they ain't good for it. NATE Look, bring back some greenbacks. Nate slams the door in his brother's face. PIERCE Dammitt! INT. RUSTY'S BAR -- EVENING Local blue collar place. Flannel shirts and work boots seem to be the required dress code. In the back of the bar is the pool hall, where Dexter and Sheldon are seated. Sheldon flips through a computer magazine. They seem out of place amongst the older crowd. Sheldon eyes 2 LOCALS at one of the tables, RUSSO, 40, and his girlfriend SHERYL. RUSSO (to Sheldon/Dexter) You kids know how to play? SHELDON (re: Dexter) He does. RUSSO Wanna play? DEXTER Why not. Russo and Sheryl share a chuckle as Dexter approaches the table. He picks out a pool stick from the rack. RUSSO What do you play? DEXTER I don't know. SHERYL How bout 8 ball? RUSSO That's a man's game, fella. This ain't no video game -- DEXTER Let's put some money on it then. RUSSO Name your price.

I thought we weren't going to get close? SCOTT It's something to eat. What's wrong with that? NIA (V.O.) Is there sex involved? SCOTT I hope. NIA (V.O.) Then that's a date. I thought we went over this -- SCOTT Who says it's a date? NIA (V.O.) A meal, then assumed sex. That's a date in my book. SCOTT Fine. I won't pay for your meal then. NIA (V.O.) Forget it then. SCOTT What? Let me get this clear, the only way you'll come is if I pay? NIA (V.O.) Correct. SCOTT But you don't want to go on a date? NIA (V.O.) Correct. SCOTT So I'll pay. Then you can sit on one end of the place and I at the other. We won't even speak or look at each other. NIA (V.O.) Sounds good to me. SCOTT Just be outside. INT. LIBRARY -- SECOND LEVEL -- EVENING Tawny and Oscar are at work. Oscar's cell rings. He answers it, to Tawny's dismay. OSCAR (into cell) Talk to me... hey, Cindy... I'm with my tutor... well, she's not bad looking though. I hope your not jealous... Tawny gets up, arms folded in frustration. OSCAR (CONTINUED) We're on a break... 10 o'clock sounds good... I will. Oscar hangs up. Sensing Tawny's frustration, Oscar turns his cell off. OSCAR It's off. TAWNY Thank you. Should have been off in the first place. Tawny sits back down. TAWNY (CONTINUED) Think we can continue without every bimbo on campus calling you? OSCAR I'm tired of your hostilities. Everyone can't be all buttoned up and tight like you. TAWNY Buttoned up? OSCAR Your angry because you want to live your life like this, but can't. Why? Beats the shit out of me. Maybe your just scared. I'm not here for a lecture on how I should live. I'm here to be tutored. Oscar slams his book shut. He give Tawny a look. She returns the cold look. TAWNY If that's how you want it. Tawny closes her book, and they sit there in silence. INT. DORM ROOM -- EVENING B Boy lays on his bed, music blasting room his stereo. Pierce stands before him, computer in hand. B BOY Do you ever see me on a computer?

The 8 ball is the only ball left. Confident, Dexter chalks up his pool stick. RUSSO This is a big shot. For all the marbles. Dexter takes his shot, slamming the 8 ball into the corner pocket, followed by the white ball, costing Dexter the game. DEXTER Damn. RUSSO You gotta ease up on those corner shots. Best not play at a table less you know that. Russo takes the balls out the pockets. He grabs the 20 off the table and hands it to Sheryl. RUSSO Think it's past your curfew. Better get home. DEXTER I'm not going back without my money. SHELDON (faking) He's right, Dexter. Maybe we should go back. RUSSO How bout we play another? SHELDON (faking) That's not a good idea. We should -- DEXTER Yes. We should. Dexter digs in his pocket and pulls out 8, 50 dollar bills. DEXTER My uncle sent this yesterday. For school supplies. Four hundred bucks. RUSSO I just cashed my check this afternoon. My lucky day. EXT. BAKERSFIELD APARTMENTS -- EVENING Five FOOTBALL PLAYERS stand out front smoking and bullshitting around. Among them is VINCENT, 22. Scott and Nia approach. VINCENT (to Scott) Fuck do you want? SCOTT You know what I'm here for, Vincent. Vincent fishes 3 bills out his pocket and flashes it in Scott's face. VINCENT Here it is. (putting money back in pocket) Tell Seth to go fuck himself. SCOTT Why do you have to be hard? FOOTBALL PLAYER Kick his ass. VINCENT I'm gonna fuck you up in front of your bitch. Think you can live with that? SCOTT That's not my bitch. I just fuck her from time to time. NIA (to Scott) Who you calling a bitch? SCOTT Take it easy. NIA Fuck you. Nia eyes one of Vincent's friends, MILLER. NIA (to Miller) Miller, right? We're in the same American history class. MILLER Yeah. Your the girl who sits in front with the nice ass. NIA Haven't seen you there much. MILLER I dropped the class. Picked up bowling instead. We were just about to go upstairs and play some domino's. You in? NIA Sure. Nia leaves Scott's side and goes with Miller upstairs. SCOTT You gotta be kidding me. VINCENT Not a good day for you. All of Scott's anger boils up. He bitch slaps Vincent. Bad move. Vincent socks Scott in the stomach, then all his buddies join him in stomping the stuffing out of Scott. Through all the commotion, somehow, Scott is able to pull the money from Vincent's pocket. He balls it up in his hand and takes the beating like a man. INT. RUSTY'S BAR -- EVENING Dexter knocks the 8 ball into the pocket. Game over. Russo is surprised. RUSSO I didn't even get a shot. You cleared the god damn table in less then 2 minutes. What kind of shit is this? Last game you couldn't even make a shot. Sheldon quickly gets up and collects Russo's money off the table. RUSSO You played me. DEXTER I won fair and square. Russo moves toward Sheldon and Dexter. Sheryl blocks his path. SHERYL Why did ou put up 400? You said you were going to take me to AC this weekend. Asshole. My mother warned me about you. Once a loser... RUSSO Sheryl, baby -- SHERYL Don't try to sweet talk me -- Dexter and Sheldon take the opportunity to slip out the bar. Another successful night. EXT. RUSTY'S BAR -- EVENING -- CONTINUED Sheldon hands half of Russo's money to Dexter. SHELDON This is getting too easy. Two enterprising guys like us could make a cleaning. Dexter slips on his shades -- even though the sun is going down. DEXTER No. This is good enough. Let's go. INT.

The librarian move on. Tawny begins to pack her things. OSCAR Look, I'm sorry. There's a lot of pressure on me. Coach would have been out of a job if I hadn't come along. My sister's pregnant. I got 5 other siblings at home. I need to pass science so I can keep my eligibility, so I can go to the big league. Your very smart. That's why I picked you -- Tawny jumps on Oscar.

B BOY That was before your time. INT. QUICKIE MART -- CONTINUED A bored CASHIER GIRL, 20, sits behind the counter, text book open, but attention on the TV. B Boy checks her out.

B BOY You look kind of young to be working in a gas station food mart. Give up on life already? CASHIER GIRL It's a part time job dick. Let me see some ID. B Boy throws his ID on the counter.

She bags their stuff and hands it to them. B BOY See ya next week, sunshine. CASHIER GIRL Whatever. EXT. QUICKIE MART -- CONTINUED They exit, passing a guy -- IRVIN -- standing by the pay phone. IRVIN (O.S.) Hey! Stick'em up. The Freshman and B Boy turn to see an ass smiling in their face. IRVIN B Boy isn't it? Irvin. Halloween party. About 6 of us smoked weed in the back of the Western. B BOY You were there? IRVIN Yeah. B BOY Sorry buddy. Can't say I remember you. B Boy and The Freshman turn to walk away. Undaunted, Irvin tags along. IRVIN What are you guys up to?

He passes it to B Boy, who lights it and takes a long pull. IRVIN High school is all about status, and I had a lot of it. B Boy's mind is on the blunt, nobody's paying any attention to what Irvin has to say. IRVIN (CONTINUED) I had every fucking girl. Black. White. Latin. Even the Mexican girls who couldn't speak a lick of English. The joint is passed to Irvin. He takes 2 quick pulls and passes it to The Freshman. B Boy and Irvin sit on the Freshman's roommate bed. B BOY That must have been the shit. Irvin's demeanor changes as his grips his chest. Irvin charges up and pukes out the open window. B BOY Shit man. Can't control your liquor. THE FRESHMAN Please don't throw up in my room. IRVIN I had some chicken earlier. Irvin hurls out the window again. THE FRESHMAN This is sick. IRVIN My head is spinning. I just need to crash for a few minutes. THE FRESHMAN I hope you got it all out? IRVIN I just need to crash. B BOY You can sleep on Lewis' bed. I'm sure he won't mind. THE FRESHMAN No. Sleep on the floor Irvin. It's too late. Irvin is fast asleep on the bed. THE FRESHMAN Why the hell did you tell him he could sleep on Lewis' bed? B BOY Dude needed to crash. Don't worry about Lewis. He's a pussy. THE FRESHMAN A pussy with giant, sharp claws that will gouge my balls clean out there sack. B BOY Look'a here, I gotta take a shit. I'll be back my nigga.

He puts it out, losing the mood to smoke. He stares at Irvin fast asleep. INT. THE FRESHMAN'S DORM ROOM -- AN HOUR LATER The Freshman sits on the floor, Irvin still asleep on the bed. B Boy has not returned, and the Freshman is pissed about the wasted night. He kicks off his shoes and climbs into bed. INT. THE FRESHMAN'S DORM ROOM -- MORNING The door SLAMS! The Freshman rises. Still groggy, he scans the room. Irvin is gone. The Freshman gets out of bed and looks over the remnants of discarded 40 bottles and nacho bags. Something takes his attention away. A smell. His nose searches the air for it's origin. He tracks the smell to Lewis' bed. The Freshman throws back the covers -- THE FRESHMAN What the -- There is a stain on the bed sheet. On closer inspection, it's not just any old stain. It's a shit stain. The Freshman knows the consequences if Lewis comes home to find a shit streak on his sheets. DREAM SEQUENCE Lewis comes through the door and sees the stain. He grabs The Freshman by the throat and throws him out the window like a rag doll. BACK TO SCENE THE FRESHMAN Fuck me. The Freshman rips the sheets off the bed, rolling it up so he won't have to see or deal with the shit stain. INT. DORMITORY -- LAUNDRY ROOM The Freshman throws the sheet in the washer. He puts some quarters in the slot and grabs a discarded bottle of detergent and pours a good amount in. The machine starts to run. THE FRESHMAN'S ROOM He comes back, hit smack in the face with the smell of shit. He moves to the window and opens it. He looks at the mattress and sees problem number 2. The shit stain has seeped through to the mattress, leaving an even worse stain. THE FRESHMAN Fuck me. The Freshman runs out the room -- DORMITORY BASEMENT The Freshman appears at the janitors closet. Knowing the door is poorly secured, he gives it a little shoulder action and it opens. He searches for something. He grabs a couple of bottles of cleaning products, a scrub brush, and heads out the room. THE FRESHMAN'S ROOM The Freshman pours a mixture of the bottles on the mattress and begins to scrub unconsciously -- to no avail. He only succeeds in making more of a mess. THE FRESHMAN Fuck me. INT. DORM ROOM -- DAY Nate is watching the Shawshank Redemption. The slurping sounds of a bong is heard from the corner of the room, where B Boy and Roy take turns. A pounding is heard at the door.

THE FRESHMAN Last night! You had to take a shit. Said you were coming back. I waited for an hour. B BOY Am I your bitch? I gotta tell you everything? I got tired and went to bed.

THE FRESHMAN Let him clean it? He's going to grind my bones into a fine powder and snort me up his nose if he finds his mattress like this. B BOY Did you try to clean it? THE FRESHMAN I've been trying to clean for the past hour. B BOY You didn't do a good job then. INT. DORMITORY -- LAUNDRY ROOM The Freshman takes the sheets out the machine and throws it in the dryer. INT. DORM ROOM -- DAY The Shawshank Redemption is going off. Nate's eyes are red with tears. Roy is passed out on the floor. The Freshman bursts in. Nate quickly composes himself. NATE What the fuck.

THE FRESHMAN Just, please come to my room. It will only take a minute. NATE Well, since you said please. INT. THE FRESHMAN'S ROOM Nate and The Freshman stand before the stain. NATE How did it get there? B BOY Someone shit their pants. NATE Who? B BOY Irvin. NATE Who the fuck is Irvin? THE FRESHMAN What should I do Nate? I've been trying to clean this up all morning, and I don't have the money to buy a new one. The stench is unbearable. Lewis will be back any minute now. If he finds his bed like this... NATE Alright, alright. Nate takes a seat, sinking deep into thought. NATE Steal a mattress from another room. THE FRESHMAN How am I going to do that? NATE Your a smart kid. Think of a way. But it should be from another dorm, where no one know's you. Now I'm leaving. I can't stand that smell anymore. Nate exits. The Freshman contemplates his idea.

INT. WESTERN DORMITORY -- EVENING The Freshman cases the floor. He spots a girl standing by her room door, next to the stairwell at the end of the hall, all dressed up for the night out on the town. The girl's roommate joins her, and they move down the stairwell. The Freshman has found what he was looking for. EXT. DORMITORY -- BACK EXIT -- EVENING B Boy and The Freshman come out the door carrying the mattress. B Boy holds it from the back, far from the stain. The Freshman peeks around the corner. The coast is clear. THE FRESHMAN Come on. They dart across to the opposite building. They move through the back of the buildings, through dirt and mud. INT. WESTERN DORMITORY -- STAIRWELL -- EVENING They lug the mattress up the steps. They place the mattress up against the wall and enter into the 3rd floor. THE FRESHMAN This is the room. It's perfect. Right next to the steps. Two chicks, gone for the night. B Boy reveals a small lock pick and begins to jimmy the door. After a few seconds, they gain access into the room -- which is decorated in pink and sky blue. B Boy moves to one of the beds and picks up a pink nightie. B Boy stuff's it in his pocket as The Freshman removes the sheets from the other bed. THE FRESHMAN Jesus Christ. Give me a hand with this mattress.

ANCIENT NINJA WARRIOR (V.O.) All warfare is based on deception, cunning, smarts, and strength. The general who wins a battle makes many calculations in his temple before the battle is fought. LEE Tawny, can you run down to the inventory room and fetch me a box of beakers. Tawny moves toward the door. LEE (CONTINUED) Be careful Tawny. Things have been disappearing around here. I don't want anything to happen to you. Every one laughs. Undaunted, Tawny continues out the room. ANCIENT NINJA WARRIOR (V.O.) Conceal your disposition. There are many dangerous faults that can affect a warriors thinking. One is a foolhardy temper, which can be evoked by clever insults by ones enemy. Appear where you are not expected. INT. LIBRARY -- MORNING Books are stacked on the table as Lee pours over her notes. Tawny approaches, sits her laptop down on the table. A video starts to play. Lee is surprised to see the video that Tawny shot at the FU party with Nia's cell phone. Lee knows she is in deep shit. ANCIENT NINJA WARRIOR (V.O.) Your best weapon is surprise. That is the warriors biggest advantage and must be revealed at the most opportunistic point. LEE Why are you showing me this? TAWNY Listen and don't speak. You will go to Professor Dooley and tell him you want off the project because you can't handle the pressure. Do you understand so far? Lee nods her head. TAWNY If you do not comply with my demands, this little video will be placed on Youtube and emailed to all 30,000 students and faculty. Got it? Lee nods her head. Tawny closes her laptop and moves off. ANCIENT NINJA WARRIOR (V.O.) A warrior must always stay focused. Once his plans have been revealed, he has little time to waste. INT. CHEMISTRY LAB -- OFFICE -- DAY Lee sits in front of Professor Dooley, explaining why she wants off the project. PROFESSOR DOOLEY'S OFFICE -- LATER Professor Dooley informs Tawny of the sudden change in plans. PROFESSOR DOOLEY So, as you see, I am putting you back in the big spot. You are the head honcho again. Don't disappoint me again Tawny. TAWNY I won't, professor. ANCIENT NINJA WARRIOR (V.O.) Do not overtax youR men or overspread your advantage if one has many enemies to conquer. EXT. CHEMISTRY LAB -- NIGHT Professor Dooley leaves the office. He climbs into his purple, VW Beetle. The car starts to pull off when he notices the car lagging a little. PROFESSOR DOOLEY What in the golly, blue, blazes -- Professor Dooley exits the car and notices he has a flat tire. PROFESSOR DOOLEY God damn motherfucker! Tawny looks on from behind the bushes. A smile of approval etched on her face. She holds a knife in her hand. Tawny folds the knife close and places it in her pocket. ANCIENT NINJA WARRIOR (V.O.) Making no mistake is what establishes the certainty of victory. But be careful, the enemy can come in the form of friend or foe. If friend reveals himself as deceitful, be cautious. INT. CAFETERIA -- MORNING Nia and Tawny eat breakfast. Nia turns her attention away for a brief second, allowing Tawny to slip a white pill into her tea cup -- which instantly dissolves. ANCIENT NINJA WARRIOR (V.O.) Though, keep in mind that if you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a battle. INT. BUILDING -- LECTURE HALL -- DAY Nia sits in class. Suddenly, she feels a pain in her side. Nia moves uncomfortably in her chair. Something is about to explode in her. Nia grabs her books and exits the lecture hall in a cloud of dust. INT. DORMITORY -- BATHROOM Nia takes a monster shit. INT. DORM ROOM -- NIGHT Tawny and Nia lay in bed watching TV. Nia feels something about to explode in her again. NIA Shit. She leaps out of bed and darts out the room. EXT. DORMITORY -- ROOF -- NIGHT Tawny smokes a cigarette in her pajamas, looking out at the vast campus backdrop -- reviling in her private victory. ANCIENT NINJA WARRIOR (V.O.) The most clever warrior fights battles that do not exist. Battles that only one or two people might have some knowledge of. His victories bring him neither acclaim nor courage, nor reputation. For the world at large knows nothing of them. He receives no credit. FADE TO BLACK. INT. EAT & PARK DINER -- NIGHT OF THE FU PARTY -- NIGHT Nate, Wesley, B Boy, and Pierce sit at a booth, halfway through their meals. Everyone eats breakfast: pancakes, waffles, eggs, bacon, sausage, toast. B Boy eats the classic American cheeseburger and fries. The diner is sparsely occupied with nocturnal animals looking for their last meal of the night. B BOY Where the hell is the waitress? NATE (to Wesley) Pass the maple syrup. B Boy spots the waitress, waves her over as Nate drowns his pancakes in syrup. WAITRESS Need anything? B BOY (handing her his glass) Milk. I need a refill. The waitress takes the glass, moves off. B BOY Nice legs. Could'a had a better attitude, though. NATE This is a shit job, making shit money. The last thing she wants to do is smile. She wants to take your plate of food and shove it in your face. B BOY Like I care. Just make sure my meal is hot and drink is cold. The waitress comes back, puts the filled glass on the table. B BOY Milk does a body good. Not amused, the waitress moves on. PIERCE Strike 2. WESLEY She does have a sweet pair of legs though. (beat) You know who I'd fuck? Kelly Clarkson. NATE Whoa! How'd we get from nice legs to you know who I want to fuck? WESLEY That's a seamless transition. Legs, fuck. B BOY Kelly Clarkson doesn't do it for me. WESLEY I love a girl with some meat on her. She's very underrated. B BOY She seems like a phony. PIERCE Everyone's a phony. B BOY Not me. I'm an OG bitch. WESLEY See, you motherfuckers are in love with the Pamela Anderson types. Watermelons for tits, blonde hair, wafer thin waist, wafer thin mind. NATE Step your game up. Pam is old news. I'm talking about Jessica Alba -- but she looks like the type who won't fuck wit a nigga. Know what I'm sayin'? PIERCE Halle. It don't get no better. Face, tits, figure, ass... original tits might I add. They don't make'em like that no more. B BOY Britney. I'm talkin' bout young and cute Britney. Before K-Fag came along and fucked her up. Shit man, I even sat through that dumb as movie she was in, just ta look at her. NATE That cross country shit? B BOY Yep. Seen it twice. PIERCE That's pathetic. B BOY Like you ain't never done some shit like that before? PIERCE Did you pay to see it? B BOY Yeah. I rented the video. PIERCE That's even worse. WESLEY Were you with a girl? B BOY Yeah. It was either that or Robocop, and I know I wouldn'ta gotten laid if I brought home Robocop. NATE You know, I just realized that Robocop is the Bionic Man. The same fucking story. It's like they couldn't get the rights to Bionic Man so they said fuck it, we'll make up some shit, put it in the future, make him a cop, make it gully and motherfucker's won't even know. WESLEY So? NATE Everybody copies. Everybody recycles shit. What we're doing, it's been done before. We think we're saying original, witty shit, but it's been cleaned, washed -- WESLEY (to Pierce) Your brothers nuts. B BOY Right here. Right now. Who are we copying off of? NATE Reservoir Dogs. That scene in the beginning. Pulp Fiction. Shit, any episode of Seinfield or Friends -- B BOY I can't stand Friends -- NATE (CONT'D) All I'm saying is nobody's original anymore. PIERCE I don't know what they put in these eggs but... WESLEY There not that powdered shit they serve in the cafeteria. Oscar enters, piece of arm candy with him -- we recognize her to be one of the girls from the lesbian session at the FU party. They move to the other side of the diner. Before he sits, Oscar spots Nate, moves to him -- OSCAR Gentleman. How's the night treating you? PIERCE Like shit. OSCAR That's good to hear. PIERCE Try the eggs. They're fantastic. Oscar sits down, lights up a cigarette. OSCAR I wonder if I can smoke here? NATE Looking for something, friend? OSCAR Yeah. You got anything? WESLEY I got some E -- OSCAR I ain't no dumb ass freshman. NATE Shops closed for the night. OSCAR Come on Nate. I'm your ace customer. You can't make any exceptions? NATE Shops closed. B BOY I can get high. NATE Shops closed. B BOY You never let us smoke for free. Cheap ass nigga. NATE I'm running a business. If I owned a 7/11 and let you cheap dick beaters take a Coke or a bag of chips for free, pretty soon you'd be doing your grocery shopping there. I would lose money. It doesn't work like that. OSCAR What doesn't work like that? NATE Life doesn't work like that. I have to get mine... know what I'm sayin'? Oscar's bummed out. The waitress comes over. WAITRESS (to Oscar) No smoking here, sir. OSCAR (outing cigarette) No problem. Oscar watches her walk off. OSCAR Nice legs on that one. B BOY See. WESLEY Who's your top hottest bitch? OSCAR I have no preferences, though Salma Hayek is haunting my dreams... is it me or did her jugs get bigger? B BOY They did get firmer, maybe she had a kid. Tits full of milk. PIERCE Maybe she got a boob job. OSCAR I've been watching Ugly Betty like a motherfucker over her. B BOY See that rack on her? Shit, she don't need one. OSCAR Come to think about it. I know this lady. Shirley, works in the admissions office. She's pretty hot. B BOY Admissions office? Those fat broads? What is she, like 65? OSCAR She's forty-something. I've been taping her on the side for about 3 months now. I love older women. They got their own place, make you a little food, wash your clothes. PIERCE Sonovabitch. This motherfucka's got ass in storage and shit. OSCAR Come to think about it, her brother grows in his basement. (pulling out his cellphone) She might even let us hit it. B BOY Really? OSCAR Well, me at least. Nate waves over the waitress. NATE (to waitress) Can we have the check please? OSCAR (into phone) Hello... it's me... Oscar... Oscar... what do you expect?... I'm here with a couple of friends looking to get high... well, you know I love you... alright -- NATE Okay, what about the tip? B BOY She could have been better. WESLEY She was alright. Three dollars. PIERCE That's not enough. WESLEY That's enough for me. PIERCE She's bustin' her ass. Servin' motherfucka's 8 hours a day -- NATE See! See what I'm saying? Everybody copies. Reservoir Dogs. Complaining about the god damn tip. You guys did that subconsciously. OSCAR That's freaky... yeah, I'm sure of it -- NATE (CONT'D) See. Everything's connected. Everyone's connected. Oscar hangs up his phone. OSCAR She's for it. We're all invited. Right now. Waitress comes back with the check. Nate looks it over. Oscar looks back at his arm candy, who's flipping through a menu, waiting. OSCAR Fuck it. Let's go. They divvy up the check and leave. EXT. HOUSE -- NIGHT Oscar rings the doorbell, the gang stands by. PIERCE She doesn't have any cats or little children does she? OSCAR No. Nothing to worry about. SHIRLEY, fortyish, your friends hot mother type, opens the door in her bathrobe, make-up on. OSCAR Shirley. You look lovely. These are some of my people. The gang moves into the living room, get comfortable. SHIRLEY Thought you forgot about me. OSCAR Shirley. How can I forget about you? Oscar cozies up to her, wraps his arms around her waist, begins to kiss her neck. The gang looks on, kind of out of place. B Boy picks up the controller, turns the TV on, starts flipping through the channels. OSCAR (CONT'D) I got practice every day. I had a game 2 days ago, just got back in yesterday... school work. I've been very busy. SHIRLEY I've been busy too. Shirley grabs Oscar in close, hands all over his ass, looks him dead in the eye -- SHIRLEY (CONT'D) Not busy enough. OSCAR I know. I'm sorry. SHIRLEY No. I'm sorry. You know that cute freshman on the basketball team? The kid who plays guard? OSCAR Yeah. Mike. SHIRLEY Mike. He's precious. Met his mother and father. Nice people. They wanted him to go to a place where he could be at home... around good people. I just saw him in the office the other day. Sweet little thing. OSCAR Okay. I get your point. I'll call more... if I can. SHIRLEY I got nothing but time. (to Nate) This ones cute. What's your name? NATE I'm Nate. This is my brother Pierce. That's Wesley, and that sloppy thing over there is B Boy. SHIRLEY (to Nate) Lovely, aren't you? You have a girlfriend? NATE No. SHIRLEY You got a boyfriend? NATE Shit no. Just my brain and my dick. SHIRLEY Then you came to the right place. Shirley and Nate share a laugh, her hands on his shoulder, flipping her hair back. Oscar is a little uncomfortable. B BOY Where's the weed, lady? SHIRLEY Is that all you college boys think of? B BOY No. SHIRLEY Of course. I know. I know. Shirley moves to the dresser in the corner of the room. She removes an old tin can -- opening it to reveal a fat bag of weed. She holds it up for everyone to see. SHIRLEY Is that good enough? Everyone approves. OSCAR Where's the bong? INT. SHIRLEY'S HOUSE -- LATER The SLURP from a bong! A cloud of smoke. Nate passes the bong to B Boy. Like a pro, B Boy loads up another hit. Oscar comes down the steps, looking like he's been through a marathon, putting his shirt back on. He moves to the frig, grabs a beer. OSCAR You guys won't believe what just happened? They pay Oscar little mind. B Boy, Wes, and Pierce are laughing there ass off at an episode of The Twilight Zone. OSCAR Shirley says -- if your up for it -- she say's she is willing to let you guys run train on her. WESLEY Fuck yeah we're up for it. I'm first. NATE She's serious? OSCAR Yeah. I told you she was a freak. Knows how to suck a mean dick too. Fucking cum in my pants just thinking about it. NATE I don't want to get up there, put it down, then find out she's screaming rape. B BOY Stop being a pussy. NATE Pussy? Why don't -- OSCAR Okay, okay. Settle in. I thought you guys were more mature? PIERCE We need a batting order. (pointing to B Boy) Cause I ain't goin' after that motherfucker. B BOY Fuck you, Pierce. I don't want to go after you. WESLEY I already called first. NATE I don't want sloppy seconds. Oscar takes the bong from B Boy, flops down on the couch and takes a hit -- WESLEY Your already getting sloppy seconds. Their argument is interrupted when Shirley comes down the steps, ass naked, sweating -- ready for action. She moves to the refrigerator, gets a bottle of water, moves back up the steps as if nobody was there. NATE Fuck it. We'll draw straws. OSCAR There's no straws here. NATE We'll put our names in a hat. Do it like that. Everybody with? Moans and groans. The best idea yet. Nate fetches the Home and Garden magazine off the table, rips a piece of paper off. He grabs a pen, begins to write down everyone's name. B BOY I don't got a condom. OSCAR She doesn't like condoms. WESLEY I better be going first now. Nate rips the names off and places them in his hat. He begins to shake it around. NATE Oscar. You be the one. Oscar takes a long hit from the bong, holding the smoke in, he reaches in the hat, pulls out a piece of paper. The gang looks on in anticipation when -- The front door opens and in walks Shirley's stocky, blue collar, husband FRANK. He drops his lunch pale and hard hat to the carpet -- eyes drawn to the 5 kids in his living room. FRANK What the fuck -- Everyone's euphoria is instantly gone. The veins start to rise under Frank's skin. He advances towards the boys as Oscar chokes out the smoke, practically vomiting on the floor. NATE Hello... FRANK Hello? Who the fuck are you? NATE I'm -- we're -- FRANK Where the fuck is my wife? NATE She's -- FRANK Why is that spic puking on my god damn floor? NATE He is -- FRANK Why the fuck are you watching my TV? NATE Let me explain. FRANK There's nothing to explain. My whore of a wife. Fucking bitch! WESLEY It's not what you think, sir. We are friends of -- FRANK Friends. I've seen her fucking friends. God damn bitch. Medusa. She's been cheating on me all the time. I was too much of a punk -- god damn bitch. PIERCE (whispering, to Nate) He's just one man. We can take him. Nate blows Pierce off -- "keep your cool." FRANK (CONT'D) I should have killed her 3 years ago when I caught her with the gardener. God damn wetback. He's laughin' at me. She's laughin' at me. Your laughin' at me. NATE Sir. No we're not. I assure you we never had -- With hate in his eyes, Frank stares down the whole gang, figuring out who's first. He looks down the line -- Nate, Pierce, Wesley, B Boy, Oscar... FRANK (to Oscar) Your... Your name is Oscar, right? OSCAR Ugh... FRANK Fuck me. Your Oscar Sanchez? OSCAR Yeah. FRANK This might sound weird. But can I have your autograph? THE END
