(Colorful party lights. Loud music. Laughter. There is a small bathroom stage right. Stage left is a living room. There is a couch with a table in front of it filled with beer bottles, plastic cups, and two bongs. On the couch sits AMY and DULANEY, each with a beer in hand. On the floor sits JOHN and MITCH, passing a bowl back and forth. The boys in this scene are very dorky, not your average douchebag. THOMAS and RACHEL stand up in the bathroom putting on clothes.)
THOMAS
God, that was so fucking good.
RACHEL
I’ve been told that.
THOMAS
Ugh, slut. You’re so good.
(THOMAS kisses RACHEL.)
RACHEL
Thomas, I...
THOMAS
Shh. Now remember don’t make this obvious.
RACHEL
This?
THOMAS
Hey, shut up. Just keep this private. Alright?
RACHEL
Yeah, sure.
THOMAS
Okay, I’m going to go out first then just take a couple minutes then you can come out after.
RACHEL
Yeah, okay.
(THOMAS exits the bathroom.)
RACHEL
Shit.
(RACHEL stays in the bathroom. Anxious. Finally decides to exit.)
RACHEL
Hey guys!
DULANEY
Rachel! Where did you go?
RACHEL
Oh, my mom called. Just told her I won’t be back tonight.
(RACHEL joins her girl friends on the couch, they hand her a beer.)
JOHN
Thomas, you were gone for like thirty minutes. Are you seriously not going to tell us where you
went, bro?
THOMAS
Shit, man, where do you think?
MITCH
Are you fucking kidding me!?
THOMAS
Hell yeah, man. I swear, it’s the ones with the shitty lives that are the best. They open up so easy,
man, I swear.
MITCH
Lucky bastard, I had my eyes on her.
JOHN
Well... We’ve got three perfect pairs. And all of those bitches seem to be whiny whores with daddy issues...
