Superbad — The R1CKY Cut
INT. GRAHAM'S CAR - MORNING
Graham, seventeen, a bit heavyset, in the midst of a sad
attempt at growing a goatee and clearly a terrible driver,
cruises along while fiddling with the CD player. He pulls out
his cell and dials.
GRAHAM
Yo.
INTERCUT WITH:
INT. RICKY'S HOUSE - KITCHEN - CONTINUOUS
2 2
Ricky, seventeen, a little too tall and slim, a boy who
clearly never figured out how to style his hair, is finishing
off a bowl of cereal. He is on his cell phone.
RICKY
What's up?
GRAHAM
I was doing research last night, for next
year, and I think I'm gonna go with Bang
Bus.
RICKY
Which one's Bang Bus?
GRAHAM
The one where they bang the chicks on the
bus. Thirteen bucks a month. Total
access, live Web Cam feed. The works.
It'll be like I'm on the bus, banging
them myself.
RICKY
That stuff's bullshit, they're all faking
it. And plus, your parents are gonna look
at the bill.
GRAHAM
It shows up under a different name.
(beat)
I hope. Bang Bus.

GRAHAM (CONT'D)
That wouldn't look good. Maybe I should
just pick the one with the least dirty
sounding name.
RICKY
Weapons of Ass Destruction's out then.
Graham pulls up in front of a house.
GRAHAM
I could tell my parents I'm doing a
project on Rome and I have to research
orgies.
EXT. RICKY'S HOUSE - CONTINUOUS
3 3
Ricky walks out his front door. WE REVEAL he is walking
towards Graham's car.
RICKY
(still into phone)
Yeah. Just tell them your taking a class
on blow jobs.
They both hang up and Ricky gets in the car. Graham is about to
pull away, when RICKY'S MOTHER comes out the front door.
RICKY'S MOM
Thanks for taking him, Graham.
Ricky changes the radio station. Graham slaps his hand.
GRAHAM
Don't touch that!
RICKY'S MOM
You two are so funny. I can't imagine
what you'll do without each other next
year. Ricky told me you didn't get into
State.
GRAHAM
Yeah, you know. I got some other places.
Good places. I think we'll be fine.
RICKY'S MOM
Are you going to miss each other?
RICKY
Miss each other? No!
(CONTINUED)

GRAHAM
That's disgusting.
MOM
Bye, boys.
Graham and Ricky drive off.
GRAHAM
I am truly, truly jealous that you got to
suck on those tits when you were a baby.
RICKY
Fuck you, man.
EXT. CLARK SECONDARY- SOON AFTER
4 4
They drive up to Clark Secondary. There is a giant sign that
reads "Seniors - Two Glorious Weeks Until Graduation". Graham
turns into the STAFF parking lot.
INT/EXT. 7-11 STORE - MOMENTS LATER
5 5
Graham and Ricky walk past a group of smokers, towards the 7-11.
RICKY
You're being an idiot, man. You really
shouldn't park there.
GRAHAM
Fuck it. I'm a senior about to graduate.
They should be suckin' my balls. It's the
least they can do for stealing three
years of my life.
They walk past DIMITRI (18, big Native American guy) as they
enter the store. Dimitri aggressively bumps his shoulder into
Graham.
RICKY
What the hell's wrong with Dimitri?
GRAHAM
Oh, yeah dude, I forgot to tell you. I
knocked the fuckin' shit out of him in
capture the flag last week.
RICKY
Good! 9th Grade Camp he gave me whiplash
in "King of the Ring." I fucking hate
that guy.
They go to the magazine rack and stare at a Maxim cover.
(CONTINUED)

5 CONTINUED: 5
RICKY (CONT'D)
Look at those nipples.
GRAHAM
They're like baby toes.
RICKY
It's not fair. I have to hide every
erection I get.
GRAHAM
Sometimes I get boners so big I can't
hide them. And then I get nervous and my
heart starts pounding, and it all just,
like, feeds my boner. It just becomes
this...thing...that's attached to me. And
it won't go away.
RICKY
Just imagine if girls weren't weirded out
by our boners and they actually wanted to
see `em, like this shit.
GRAHAM
You know it's been, like, a year and a
half since I've seen an actual human
female nipple. Besides my mom's. I saw it
last month, and it was sick.
RICKY
Holy shit. Liat was two years ago? I
guess so. She was insanely hot, though.
GRAHAM
Exactly. Too hot. That's what sucks.
RICKY
How can that possibly suck? I'd be
fuckin' psyched if I'd gotten with a girl
that hot. You got, like, two dozen
handjobs!
GRAHAM
And three quarters of a blowjob, But that
was fuckin' it. It was the peak of my ass-
gettin' career, and it happened way, way,
way too early.
RICKY
You're like Orson Welles.
(CONTINUED)
5.
5 CONTINUED: (2) 5
GRAHAM
Exactly! If I'd built up to it, I'd
probably at least be having steady sex
with a mediocre-looking girl at this
point. I honestly now see why Orson
Welles ate his fat ass to death.
RICKY
You'll have sex in college. Everyone
does. And if not, you'll have the Bang
Bus.
GRAHAM
But the key is to be good at sex by the
time you're in college. You don't want
girls to think you suck dick at fucking.
RICKY
I still think you've got a chance with
Jules. She got mad hot over last summer,
and clearly hasn't realized it, `cause
she still flirts with you.
GRAHAM
Are you joking, man? Let's see here...she
dated Dan Remick, Matt Muir, Josh Corber
and what's-his-face. All of those were
cool guys. She's been hot way longer than
you think. Why would she end her high
school career with me?
RICKY
Well, Helen got with Ariel Shafir.
GRAHAM
Yeah, and he was a complete fucking
loser. You're a step up from that. Which
is why you should stop being a pussy and
do her! You could nailthe shit out of
her for, like, two months before you
leave. That bitch looks like a good
fucker.
RICKY
Hey! I'm sick of you talking about her
like that, man!
Ricky starts to walk out. Graham follows.
GRAHAM
What, you can talk about that bitch all
day every single day, but I can't say one
thing about her?
(CONTINUED)
6.
5 CONTINUED: (3) 5
RICKY
I don't constantly insult her.
GRAHAM
I didn't insult her! I said she looks
like a good fucker! She looks like she
can take a dick. That's a good thing.
Some women pride themselves on their dick-
taking abilities.
EXT. 7-11 - CONTINUOUS
6 6
Graham and Ricky come out the front doors. TERRY, one of the
rough-looking smokers, calls out.
TERRY
Yo. Graham. Did you hear I'm having the big
grad party?
Ricky, a little scared, keeps his distance.
GRAHAM
No.
TERRY
Yeah.
Terry spits on Graham's shirt.
TERRY (CONT'D)
And you're not coming. Tell your fucking
faggot friend he can't come either.
Graham wipes the spit off. He looks at Terry and seems as
though he's about to say something, but is interrupted when
Terry starts hocking up more spit. Graham runs away as Terry
and his friends laugh. He catches up to Ricky and they head
back to school.
RICKY
Wow. You really bitched out on that one.
GRAHAM
I bitched out? You bitched out! You were
across the street before I even realized
what was going on.
(beat)
That guy's such a douche bag.

BIRD'S EYE VIEW OF A P.E. CLASS
There are 30 guys standing behind the starting line of the
school's track. We hear a TEACHER yell "Go!" and the boys
start running.
We FOLLOW them from above. All the boys keep pretty much the
same pace except for one runner who slowly lags behind. The
group gets so far ahead of the him that he is alone in the
frame. He stops.
CLOSE UP OF THE RUNNER:
Kneeling on the track breathing heavily. It's Graham.
GRAHAM
(panting)
This...is...bullshit.
A moment later a KID with prosthetic leg jogs by.
KID

Poo-say.
INT. CLARK SECONDARY CLASSROOM - DAY
8 8
Ricky is sitting in math class staring at HELEN'S breasts.
She`s a very tall girl and is athletic in a sexy way, wearing
volleyball team sweat pants and a tank top. He looks up from
her breasts to her face: she is staring right at him. He
immediately looks to the front of the class, embarrassed.
The bell rings and everyone leaves. Helen walks up to Ricky as
they enter the hallway. He's really nervous. She offers him a
pen.
HELEN
Hey Ricky, thanks for the pen.
RICKY
Oh, don't worry, no worries. Just keep
it. Then you'll just have it, and you
won't have to borrow another pen.
HELEN
Thanks...uh...I was going to ask you, did
you hear about Terry's grad party? It's
going to be so insane.
RICKY
Yeah, it's a maybe. But, you know, I
gotta, I got my...

RICKY (CONT'D)
there's so much other fun shit that is
going to be going on that night...so, you
know...
HELEN
Fun shit? But I, like, never see you at
any parties or anything.
RICKY
Because of all the other fun shit I'm off
doing.
HELEN
(playful)
Okay. So why weren't you at Dimitri's
party on Saturday?
RICKY
Dimitri's? I uh...didn't want to go,
because, well, I did other stuff.
Saturday...
(nervous, he desperately
thinks)
Oh yeah! Saturday night was awesome!
(The real version of Ricky's story is shown through a montage
of quick flashbacks.)
RICKY (CONT'D) (V.O)
First my parents went out to a double

Graham is there. Ricky and him are surfing the Bang Bus web
site. ROB arrives with a bottle of Sambuca. Rob is one
of those seniors who looks like he's thirteen years old.
RICKY
...and we had a couple drinks in my
basement...
An empty bottle of Sambuca in front of them and empty beer
cans at their feet, the three boys each shotgun a beer.
RICKY (CONT'D) (V.O)
...and Graham's parents were having this
cocktail party, and we went over there

Graham's parents are having a fancy cocktail party. The boys
are drunk as hell.
RICKY
...and there were actually some really
interesting and, like, entertaining
people there...
The boys laugh hysterically as they each shake Tobassco Sauce
onto their tongues. They writhe around in agony as several
adults look at them like they are morons.
RICKY (CONT'D) (V.O.)
...and, uh, then we saw some, uh, live
music.
INT. GRAHAM'S HOUSE - BASEMENT - NIGHT

something like that.

14 CONTINUED: 14
RICKY
Yeah...well, you know, me and Graham are
always cooking up...uh...fun
little...events.
Helen is disappointed in his response.
HELEN
So, are you guys going to the same school
next year?
RICKY
Nah. We were going to but, uh, we got
into different ones.
HELEN
What are you going to do without him?
RICKY
Same shit I've always been doing. It'll
be fine. Don't worry about it. I'm not.
INT. FOODS AND NUTRITION ROOM - NEXT PERIOD
15 15
Students file into the home economics room. The blackboard
reads, TODAY: TIRAMISU. The ingredients are listed below.
Graham is talking to the cooking teacher.
GRAHAM
Mrs. Grier, I joined this class because I
thought I'd be cooking with a partner.
It's not fair. She's never here. I don't
get twice the marks for doing all the
work.
MRS. GREIR
I didn't invent odd numbers, Graham.
GRAHAM
Look at Ricky.
Ricky is playfully throwing flour at a tiny Japanese boy. They
both laugh hard.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
While I'm over in my unit, isolated and
alone, eating my terrible-tasting food
because I can't even properly mix
ingredients by myself, I gotta look over
at that.
(CONTINUED)
11.
15 CONTINUED: 15
The Japanese boy ties Ricky's apron. Ricky then turns around
and ties the boy's apron. They both look happy.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
I wash and dry. And that is B.S. I'm like
a single mother.
MRS. GREIR
Well, save it for next week. Today Jules'
partner isn't here either. Pair up with
her. Station four.
GRAHAM
Jules?
The teacher walks away. Graham looks over to station four,
nervous as hell.
ANGLE ON: Jules, well-dressed and "popular" looking. She
stands alone at station four, laying out utensils.
Graham musters his courage and walks towards Jules. He stops,
unsure of what to say.
JULES
Hey Graham, your partner didn't come again?
GRAHAM
That's kind of a personal question.
JULES
What?
GRAHAM
(nervous)
Nothing. It was my attempt at humour.
JULES
Well, uh, maybe I kidnapped her so you'd
be forced to work with me. There's my
attempt at humour.
GRAHAM
Well, I would call that a success.
(reading recipe sheet)
Marscampone... scamponee cheese? Is that
some kind of new cheese or something?
JULES
All cheese tastes the same to me anyway.
GRAHAM
Except blue cheese. That stuff is sick.
(CONTINUED)
12.
15 CONTINUED: (2) 15
JULES
Thank you! Yes! My older brother always
eats blue cheese. You know that stuff is
actually moldy. Like, they tell you it's
moldy, then they tell you to eat it
anyway.
GRAHAM
Well whoever "they" are, they can eat my
dick.
INT. FOODS AND NUITRITION ROOM - LATER
16 16
Jules watches as Graham awkwardly removes the tiramisu from the
oven and places it on the table.
JULES
What are you doing tonight?
GRAHAM
I don't know, probably nothing. Why?
JULES
My parents are out of town and I'm
thinking of having a party. I don't know
how big it'll be, but you should come
anyways.
GRAHAM
Yeah. Sure. That sounds fun. I love
parties.
JULES
Really? I don't usually see you at them.
GRAHAM
Oh, uh. It's more of, like, a love-hate
thing. Right now I love them, though.
Uh...how do I do this?
JULES
I'll write down my address and number.
ANGLE ON: Ricky.
Ricky is standing by the sink scrubbing a tray. Behind him, at
the table, is the small Japanese boy eating the tiramisu.
RICKY
That's good shit. Huh, Miroki?
Graham walks up to Ricky.

GRAHAM (CONT'D)

Don't tell Rob about the party.
ROB
Hey guys, I was walking here, and on the
way, I saw Nicola, and she was wearing
these tight white pants and a black g-
string and you could see it right through
the pants.
INT. HALLWAY (FLASHBACK) - EARLIER
17 17
We see Rob, looking at the ass of NICOLA, an incredibly
hot girl who exudes sexual vibes and looks a little skanky;
you can see her black g-string through her tight white pants.
She turns and notices Rob. He gives an awkward look.
ROB
It's nine thirty.

Back to Rob, Graham and Ricky.
ROB
I told her what time it was. It was

ROB
Ha ha. I'm really gonna miss your knee-
slappers when me and Ricky are at State.
GRAHAM
(pissed)
Yeah, well I'll be at Junior college
where the girls are half as smart, and
thus twice as likely to blow me.
ROB
What are you guys doing tonight?

GRAHAM
Nothing. Sorry. You'll just have to
fingerbang yourself.
RICKY
(to Rob)
What you doing?
ROB
Well, Graham always said I was too much of
a pussy, but he was wrong. It's been
arranged. At lunch, I'm going to the same
place Mike Snider went to pick up my
brand new false identification card.
GRAHAM
Dude! That's perfect, `cause, Ricky,
didn't you just say that you heard about
a party?
ROB
(to Ricky)
Why didn't you tell me?
GRAHAM
Shut up. Who cares? Just be happy he
told. And hey! Now you can buy the booze.
ROB
Sounds cool. Cool.
MRS. GREIR (O.S.)
If you're not in this class, leave this
class!
RICKY
Well done, man. We'll see you after
class.
Rob leaves.
GRAHAM
Did you tell that nimrod you're not going
to room with him?
RICKY
Uh...no, not yet.

RICKY
Actually, we're going to different
schools.
JULES
Really? You're cutting the cord? What's
going to happen?
GRAHAM
Nothing! Jesus.
RICKY
Yeah? What do people think is gonna
happen? That's what I don't get.
GRAHAM
We're not, like, dependent on each other.

Graham and Ricky are eating together.
RICKY
So it looks like we get a little
graduation party after all.
GRAHAM
I would do terrible things to get with
Jules tonight. Terrible things.
RICKY
No shit. I'd give my left foot to start
dating Helen. She's killin' me.

RICKY
I'm fuckin' sick of this shit, man!
Seriously. Why do you hate her? Is there
even an actual reason? Because seriously,
I'm beginning you think you like her.
GRAHAM
Hell no! I hate her.
RICKY
Why?
GRAHAM
I was never going to tell you this story,
because I knew that if you heard it you
would never want to get with Helen, but
over the last few weeks I've been having
a hard time thinking of a reason not to.
So, here it is. Helen and I went to
elementary school together, right?
(beat)
Well, in the third grade, I
had...like...an odd problem. For some
reason, I don't know why, I used to have
this thing...where I would...like,
kinda...sit around all day and draw
pictures of dicks.
RICKY
What?

I'd just sit there for hours on end
drawing dicks. I don't know what it was.
I couldn't touch the pen to paper without
it drawing a penis.

Shirley is offended. Jules laughs a little. Graham laughs too
hard.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
Ha! Alright, sure. I can do that. What do
you guys want?
JULES
Well, this is actually, like, a big
favor, but, well, my parents gave me like
a hundred bucks to feed myself for the
week, but the house if full of food, so I
figure I should just spend all of it on
extra drinks for the party.

Wow. I would never even think of doing
something that nice.

Man, just - Ricky, listen to me. You know
Jules? You know what she just did? She
came up to me and asked me if I would buy
her alcohol. Not just her, her whole
party. Do you know what that means? It
means that by some miracle, we were
paired up, we talked, and she actually
thought of me afterwards. Thought of me
enough to decide that I was the guy that
she was going to trust the fun-ness of
her party with. She wants me! She fucking
wants my dick!

Make her your girlfriend? Of course!
That's good. So, hypnosis, love potion,
or mind-control helmet?
GRAHAM
Once I've gotten with her, I write her
love letters, flowers, I'll do anything -
I'll be the most pussy-whipped guy in the
universe - what chick wouldn't go out
with a guy like that?

The soccer ball rolls towards them. They both watch as it
rolls by.
CLASSMATE
What the hell, Ricky?
Ricky shrugs back.
CLASSMATE (CONT'D)
Fuck you, man.
GRAHAM
Fuck off, Greg. Why don't you piss your
pants again?
CLASSMATE
That was, like, eight years ago, asshole!
He runs off.
GRAHAM
(to Ricky)
Wanna hear the best part?
RICKY
(sarcastic)
Oh, I haven't?
GRAHAM
Helen!
Ricky looks upset, assuming that Graham is about to trash-talk
Helen, as usual.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
You do the same thing, man! Buy Helen her
alcohol. Then, tonight, when you guys are
both drunk, get with her! This is the
last party we're ever going to go to as
high school people! I've fully ignored my
hatred for Helen in coming up with this,
which is a big ass deal. We need to stop
being pussy and for once just goes balls
out, man!
Ricky seems to be swayed.
RICKY
I should get Helen alcohol?
GRAHAM
Of course! It'll be pimp, and then you
know she'll be drunk.
(CONTINUED)

RICKY
Have you talked to Rob?
GRAHAM
You talk to Helen, I'll find that retard
Rob.
INT. HALLWAY - LATER

Everyone is rushing to class. Ricky hurries through the halls
and finds Helen at her locker.
RICKY
Hey Helen! Hold up. Did you hear about
the party tonight?
HELEN
Yeah, I just heard. It sounds sweet.
You're not coming, are you?
RICKY
No, no, I am. That's why I came looking
for you. Me and some guys are going to
the liquor store after class, so I was
thinking I could buy you yours, if you
needed someone to.
HELEN
Yeah! That'd be great, that'd save me
such a hassle, cause I was going to beg
my sister, but yeah, could you get me,
like, a bottle of Goldschlager? I'll pay
you back tonight.
RICKY
You will absolutely not. It's my treat.
HELEN
Wow. Thanks, Ricky.
Ricky swings a friendly little punch at Helen's shoulder, but
someone walks into him, causing him to nail her in directly
in the tit!
HELEN (CONT'D)
Hey! You punched my tit!
RICKY
(mortified)
I'm sorry! Shit, shit. I'm so sorry! I
just wanted to give you a friendly nudge
in the arm, you know? I'm so sorry.
(CONTINUED)
24.
34 CONTINUED: 34
HELEN
(giggling)
Don't worry about it. So I'll see you at
the party?
RICKY
Yeah. I'll see you then. I'm so sorry
about that.

Graham is waiting angrily in front of the school. Ricky comes
out the front doors.
GRAHAM
That douche bag isn't back yet, I've been
standing here with my thumb up my ass.
RICKY
I did it, dude. I even offered to pay for
it. It was pimp.
GRAHAM
Whoa. That is fucking pimp. Why didn't I
do that? Shit.
The bell rings.
INT. WOODSHOP CLASS - CONTINUOUS

Graham and Ricky work side by side in the woodshop.
GRAHAM

That's what we get for trusting a mental
midget! He's fucking it all up! I bet he
pussied out, just like I said he would!
EXT. CLARK SECONDARY - AFTER SCHOOL
37 37
Graham and Ricky walk out the front door.
GRAHAM
I mean, what are we going to tell the
girls? "Sorry, we couldn't do what we
promised because we're dickless
incompetents!" We'll never get laid
because of that little ass-fuck. How did
he get in to State?! He's got shit for
brains! Shit! How else can we get liquor?
ROB (O.S.)
Hey guys!

37 CONTINUED: 37
Graham and Ricky turn around to see Rob running after them.
RICKY
Where have you been?
GRAHAM
Yeah! You almost gave me a goddamn heart
attack! You better fucking have it, where
is it?
ROB
I got it. It's flawless! It's great, man,
look.
Rob reaches into his pocket and pulls out the fake ID.
Ricky grabs it.
RICKY
(reading the card)
Okay Mr..."McLovin"? What kind of a
stupid name is that? What are you
trying to be, an Irish R&B singer?
ROB
Well, they let you pick any name you want
when you get there.
GRAHAM
So you picked McLovin?
ROB
It was between that or Muhammad.
GRAHAM
Why was it between that or Muhammad? Why
didn't you just pick a common name?
ROB
Actually, Graham, Muhammad is the most
commonly used name on earth.
RICKY
Have you ever actually met a guy named
Muhammad?
ROB
Have you actually ever met a guy named
McLovin?
GRAHAM
No! That's why you picked a bad name.
(CONTINUED)
26.
37 CONTINUED: (2) 37
RICKY
You probably have federal agents tracking
you for even considering the name
Muhammad on a fake ID!
GRAHAM
Look at this shit man, you don't even
have a first name. It just says "NAME:
MCLOVIN"
RICKY
One name?
ROB
I just thought McLovin sounded old, and
the chicks would dig it.
RICKY
Under what circumstances would you ever
have to show a chick your ID?
ROB
She could ask. Or, I could just show it
to her.
GRAHAM
Holy shit! I don't believe this. This
says you're fucking 25! Why didn't you
just put 21?
ROB
I knew you would ask that. Look, every
day, dozens of kids roll into the liquor
store with fake ID's trying to act like
Joe Casual. Each and every one of these
kids just so happens to be 21 years old.
Just how many 21 year-olds do you think
there are?
GRAHAM
Fool!
RICKY
Calm down! It's not terrible! This might
work, but it's up to you, Rob. They'll
either think, "Oh, it's another punk kid
with a fake ID." Or, "Look, it's McLovin,
the twenty five year-old organ donor".
What's it gonna be?
Rob takes a deep breath.
(CONTINUED)
27.
37 CONTINUED: (3) 37
ROB
I am McLovin.
GRAHAM
You're not McLovin. No one's McLovin and
this is never going to work. We need a
new way to get alcohol. Could we drive to
Canada or something?
ROB
I still think it's going to work.
They walk into the staff parking lot. Graham stops.
GRAHAM
What the fuck? Where's my car?
RICKY
I told you, man! What did I say? I told
you that was a dumb idea.
ROB
Why would you park in the staff-
GRAHAM
Shut up, Rob.
ROB
`Cause you're not staff.
GRAHAM
I am aware of that, Fagell.
Graham storms off. Ricky follows him.
ROB
(yelling)
Will you still pick me up from work?
Ricky and Graham round the corner, leaving Rob behind.
GRAHAM
Let's go to your house.
INT. RICKY'S BEDROOM - SOON AFTER

Graham puts on a shirt that is way too small and he's wearing
pants that are too tight. Ricky is playing the video game
Grand Theft Auto.
(CONTINUED)

38 CONTINUED: 38
GRAHAM
Now we wait for your Mom to piss off and
steal your parents' booze like your
brother always does. Take a bit from
every bottle. Piece of cake. It's not
exactly what Jules wanted, but it'll do,
right?
RICKY
Come on! Just wear what you wore to
school.
GRAHAM
I told you I can't do that. I can't let
Jules see me in the same shit I wore at
school. It's completely unbecoming.
RICKY
Why don't you just go to your house and
get your own clothes? `Cause this is
stupid.
GRAHAM
You're stupid! I can't go home. Then my
mom will know the car got towed and I'll
be grounded tonight. I'll just stay here
all weekend and pick it up on Monday.
RICKY
(RE: video game)
Where the fuck is the dirt bike?
(beat)
Ah, screw it. I'm just gonna kill
everyone. Boom! Die, piggies!!!
GRAHAM
Don't you have bigger clothes?
RICKY
See what my dad's got.

Graham is wearing Ricky's Dad's clothes: a 70s style cowboy
shirt, just barely pulling it off, as well as slacks.
GRAHAM
Not bad, eh?
RICKY
It's, like, 7:30 and my Mom's still here.
(CONTINUED)
29.
39 CONTINUED: 39
GRAHAM
Alright, here's what we'll do. I'll fuck
your Mom in the basement while you steal
the liquor.
RICKY
Fuck you, asshole. Let's just sneak down
there and grab it.
INT. RICKY'S HOUSE - LATER
40 40
Ricky and Graham, carrying an empty two liter bottle of Coke,
cautiously descend the creaking staircase. Their eyes watch
the TV room, where Ricky's mom is on the phone. The boys enter
the dining room and cautiously open the liquor cabinet. Graham
enthusiastically reaches for a bottle.
GRAHAM
(whispering)
Alright, dude. Get ready to receive.
Ricky begins unscrewing his bottle, when he notices a little
black line marking where the liquor bottle is filled to.
Then, he realizes that every bottle has it.
RICKY
(whispering)
I can't believe it. They marked them.
GRAHAM
(whispering)
What do you mean they...oh, man! Your
parents are fuckers. What do we do now?
RICKY
(whispering)
Shh!!! We...we...take some and fill it
back up with water. Get ready, I'll get
water.
Ricky hurries off. Graham looks at the liquor cabinet, trying to
choose the best booze. He grabs a massive bottle of gin. Ricky
reappears.
RICKY (CONT'D)
(whispering)
Gin? That stuff is literally undrinkable.
GRAHAM
(whispering)
It's the biggest bottle, you douche. Just
do it! She's right in the other room!
(CONTINUED)
30.
40 CONTINUED: 40
Ricky reluctantly holds an empty Coke bottle as Graham shakily
pours the gin in. Ricky starts refilling the gin bottle with
water, when suddenly they both hear his mom coming.
RICKY
(whispering)
Run!
GRAHAM
(whispering)
But, the booze?
RICKY
(whispering)
Take it!
Graham runs off with the gin and Coke bottle. Ricky quickly
closes the cabinet and sneaks off right before his mom
enters. Through the window she see's that Graham is already on
the front lawn and thinks nothing of it.
RICKY (CONT'D)
Bye, Mom! Love you.
RICKY'S MOM
Love you, sweety.
Ricky leaves.

Ricky and Graham triumphantly walk away. Graham holds up the gin.
GRAHAM
Look at this mother. Smell it's glory.
He opens it up and takes a whiff.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
Mmm. It's good. Barely a scent.
He takes a crazy big swig.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
See that? I always said I had the highest
alcohol tolerance. I'm like Superman.
Graham taste another swig, but makes a strange face. Ricky grabs
the bottle and takes a swig.
RICKY
It's fucking water!

31.
41 CONTINUED: 41
GRAHAM
Water?
(drinks again)
Fuck. Your brother beat us to the punch.
We have to go back!
RICKY
We can't go back! She totally knew,
she'll bust us for sure, and we have to
meet Rob.
GRAHAM
Well, fuck...fine. Text your brother he's
a stupid piece of crap.
Ricky pulls out his cell and chuckles as he types.
EXT. SHOPWELLS - DUSK

Ricky and Graham walk off the bus. They see Rob walking
towards them. He's in his uniform holding a hanger with a
shirt and a vest.
GRAHAM
What the hell is that?
ROB
A vest.
GRAHAM
You're gonna look like a Pinocchio.
RICKY
What? It's just a vest.
ROB
Yeah. How many high schoolers you see in
vests?
GRAHAM
(eyeing Shopwell's)
You know, they got a ton of liquor right
in there. If we get it now we can get to
the party faster with all of Jules' shit.
ROB
No way! I work there. They know I'm not
twenty-five.
GRAHAM
Nobody said anything about you, dick-
mouth. You have one name on your ID. It's
out of the equation!
(MORE)
(CONTINUED)
32.
42 CONTINUED: 42
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
And now I'm gonna have to take drastic
measures. I'm gonna steal the booze.
ROB
What?! No! Hell no! You can't do that!
RICKY
(mocking)
Yeah, right!
GRAHAM
That's right. And that way I give Jules
back her money, like you did with Helen.
That was good thinking, that's fucking
pimp. That's how you seal a deal. It
won't be hard. Remember Dan Vertlieb
stole a keg from here and he's got, like,
really bad scoliosis!
RICKY
You're not gonna steal it. Rob, he's
not going to steal it.
ROB
Please. Don't do this! I promise. I'll
get the liquor later.
GRAHAM
I'm stepping up. And once I'm up, I don't
step back down. Maybe you "State" boys
don't understand that.
Graham walks to the store.
INT. SHOPWELL'S - CONTINUOUS

Graham enters the store, looking determined. He spots a
SECURITY GUARD standing by one of the registers.
GRAHAM
(to himself)
Hope piggy can run.
He walks past the registers, which brings him in front of the
long liquor aisle. He surveys the scene. There is an OLD
WOMAN browsing the shelves. Graham looks over to the registers.

The old lady is browsing. She drops her big purse. A hand
reaches down and picks it up. It's Graham.
GRAHAM
Excuse me, ma'am. You dropped your purse.
Would you like me to help you to your
car?
OLD LADY
That would be lovely, young man. Would
you like me to buy you alcohol?
GRAHAM
That would be lovely!

He arrives at a fancy looking bottle. He takes it and looks
down at it in his hands. A big golden label reads,
"GOLDSCHLAGER."
SECURITY GAURD (O.S.)
Don't do it kid.
We see that the Security Guard is right behind him. Graham
doesn't look up, he just stares at the bottle dramatically.
GRAHAM
I never had a choice.
He throws the bottle at the guards face. The guard blocks it
with his billy club, grabs another bottle, and hurls it at
Graham. Graham dodges it by an inch; the bottle hits the OLD LADY
in the head.
OLD LADY
(in agony)
AAAHHHHH!!!
Before Graham can do anything, the guard smashes a 40-ounce
bottle of beer across his face. The guard SWINGS the broken
end of the bottle and cuts Graham's throat. Blood spurts out.
Graham drops his bottles and falls to the ground.

Ricky sees Graham coming out of Shopwell's.
RICKY
Shh. Graham's coming.
ROB
You still didn't tell him we're rooming-
RICKY
No. Shut up.

So, where's all the stolen liquor?

Fuck you! I was gonna do it, but security
was tight as shit. I was gonna do it

Graham heads towards the bus stop.
ROB
Wait! I'm gonna put my vest back in my
locker!

RICKY
Well, here we are. Rob, are you ready?
GRAHAM
Here's the list.
ROB
A list? Why?
GRAHAM
We're getting girls their booze so
they'll get with us. I put a lot of
thought into that list. It's the perfect
party bar, so don't mess it up and get
Sambuca again.
Rob reads the list. A worried look sweeps across his face.
ROB
Ouzo, Drambuie, Jager, Gold-shlay-ger-
RICKY
Goldschlager. That's for Helen, so do not
forget it.
ROB
-Alize, Captain Morgan Rum, Smirnoff
Rasberry and a big ass bottle of Popov-

This is too much. I can't get away with
this much!
RICKY
What's the difference?
Graham hands Rob the money.
ROB
I don't know, man. I'm getting, like,
really nervous.
Rob starts breathing very hard and making an ODD NOISE
while doing so.
RICKY
Are you okay?
GRAHAM
What the hell are you doing?
ROB
I don't know if I want to do this.
GRAHAM
What are you talking about? You just
promised you would. What is this shit?
ROB
What if they turn me down?
GRAHAM
Then we're in the same place that we're
in right now!
ROB
It's fucking humiliating! Everyone in the
store sees them kicking me out. What if
they make me put all the liquor back on
the shelf? I can't do that!
GRAHAM
This whole thing is bigger than you,
asshead! Just go in there and buy the
damn alcohol!
ROB
What if I don't feel like it anymore?
(CONTINUED)
37.
51 CONTINUED: (2) 51
GRAHAM
Then I will kill you! How's that? If you
don't buy the alcohol, I will kill you!
ROB
Killing me won't get you any alcohol,
jerkoff! I'm the one with the ID!
GRAHAM
Then I will kill you, cut off your ugly
face, put it over mine, and buy it my
fucking self.
ROB
You don't have the technology or the
steady hands to pull off a procedure like
that!
Graham stands for a moment, then suddenly rushes Rob. Ricky
stands between them and breaks it up.
RICKY
Graham, calm down! Rob, stop being a
baby and go buy the alcohol! You said
you'd do it, so do it. It's why you
bought the ID, so just go do it.
ROB
(beat)
I'll try.
Rob walks into the store.
INT. LIQUOR STORE - CONTINUOUS

At first it all seems overwhelming. Rob is confused,
dizzy, and sweating. He steps behind a large beer display and
takes a few deep breaths.
CLERK
Hi there.
Rob flinches, shocked someone spoke to him. He keeps
walking. He nears a mother and her 17 year old SON. As Rob
passes them, the son seems to recognize him. Rob clearly
recognizes the son. Their eyes meet. Rob looks in the
opposite direction.
SON

Uh...nothing. Not Rob...

Shut up, Moscovitch. You don't know me.
MOSCOVITCH
(knowingly)
Oh, oh. Cool, cool. Good luck.
He puts his head down and quickly walks away. He arrives at
the beer and cooler section. Clearly intimidated, he slowly
opens a beer fridge. He grabs one beer attached to a six-pack
and pulls it forward. The beer comes loose in his hand as the
other five fall to the ground, cracking on impact, and
spraying beer all over the place. Rob scrambles to stop
the beers from spraying, but soon finds that it is
impossible.
ROB
Fuck.
A CLERK approaches Rob.
CLERK
Is there a problem, sir?
ROB
Umm, nope, no problem whatsoever.
CLERK

floor)
Sir, did you do this? On the floor?

Um, yes, may I please see some ID?
OLD-LOOKING GUY
No problem. Heh. I haven't been ID-ed in

RICKY
Calm down.
(beat)
Did you remember a condom?
GRAHAM
You brought a condom?
RICKY
Yeah, I figured, you know, might as well.
I brought one of those little things of
spermicidal lube too.
He takes them out of his pocket.

You asshole! You laughed in my face when
I said we'd be having sex tonight.

GRAHAM
No. That wasn't the plan! We had a plan!
I can't believe you did that without even
consulting me about it!
RICKY
I don't really even understand what your
plan is.
GRAHAM
I'm gonna go down on her for, like,
hours. She'll love that. She'll want to
go out with that.
RICKY
Yeah, but I figured there's no harm in
bringing just one little condom.
GRAHAM
And one little bottle of spermicidal
lube. That's nuts. You can't let her know
you brought that! These girls are 18, not
dried up old ladies. They're ready to go.

RICKY
I haven't seen her since she switched

GRAHAM
She had the biggest tits in the universe.
Down the block there is a girl walking a dog.

Graham and Ricky walk down the street towards the liquor store.
RICKY
That was a waste.
GRAHAM
But she fully looked way better before. I
thought when they reduced them, they just
kind of reshaped them nicer. Made them
more supple.
RICKY
I can't even begin to imagine the
justification for making breasts smaller.

I can't do this, okay!?! I told you, I
have an exam tomorrow! Can you understand
that? A goddamn exam!
The cashier breaks down crying and walks off to the back of
the store. The officers look at each other.
OFFICER MICHAELS
Apparently, she has an exam.
They chuckle. Then they turn to Rob.
OFFICER SLATER
(turn to Rob)
So then, son, you're the one that got
punched?
Rob looks down to his bags of liquor at his feet. Then
back at the cops. He nods.
OFFICER MICHAELS
We'd like to ask you a couple questions.
The officers each take out a note pad and a pencil.
OFFICER MICHAELS (CONT'D)
Okay, first things first. What's your
name?
(CONTINUED)
44.
59 CONTINUED: 59
Rob looks like his heart is about to explode out of his
chest.
ROB
My name, it's...it's..
(tripping over his own words)
Mc..mac..laddle...
OFFICER SLATER
MicMac what?
ROB
No, no I said, "McLovin".
OFFICER MICHAELS
McLovin?
ROB
McLovin.
The officers both write down some information.
OFFICER SLATER
Cool name. And your first name?
Rob looks twice as scared.
ROB
Oh...that's uh...a good one...it's a...an
interesting...uh...event...
Rob trails off mumbling and starts to breathe heavily,
making an ODD NOISE. Behind him, in the window of the store,
we see Graham and Ricky peeking through.
EXT. LIQUOR STORE - CONTINUOUS

Shocked, Graham and Ricky walk away from the window. Graham starts
to pace in anger.
GRAHAM
I don't believe this bullshit! I
can't...this isn't happening! I didn't
even know you could get arrested for this
shit! WE NEED THAT FUCKING LIQUOR!
RICKY
Oh my god. Are they gonna take him
downtown?
GRAHAM
Fuck Rob! He got arrested! We're on
our own.

GRAHAM (CONT'D)
We need a new way of getting liquor.
(realizing)
AAAHHH!! The money! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! How
much money can you get?
RICKY
What are you talking about? Money? What
about Rob?
GRAHAM
That doesn't matter anymore. I just lost
a hundred dollars of Jules' money!
RICKY
We have to help him!
GRAHAM
Help him? What are we gonna do? Bust him
out of jail? I don't even know where jail
is! What we need is the alcohol, which is
impossible because we don't have any
fucking money!
Graham steps into the driveway leading to the parking lot.
RICKY
Fine. Just...calm down. We need to think.
We need to think.
GRAHAM
Fuck thinking! We need to act!
Suddenly, a car pulls out of the lot going 10 mph and knocks
Graham down!!!
INT. LIQUOR STORE - CONTINUOUS
61 61
The cops are still talking to Rob. He looks completely
flustered. He's lost his composure.
OFFICER SLATER
Okay, your name is just McLovin, there's
no need to get irrational.
In the BACKGROUND (not in the view of Rob and the cops) we
see DRIVER of the car, a shady-looking guy in a hockey
jersey, gets out of his car and walks over to where Graham is
lying, apologizing frantically.
OFFICER MICHAELS
A lot of people have strange names these
days.
(CONTINUED)

61 CONTINUED: 61
OFFICER SLATER
I once arrested a man-lady who was
legally named "Pearl Necklace."
ROB
It's just... I changed my name. I was
going to be a singer. R&B.
OFFICER MICHAELS
Fine. That's not illegal.
OFFICER SLATER
And, how old are you McLovin?
Rob looks down at the bags of booze again.
ROB
Old enough.
OFFICER SLATER
Old enough for what?
OFFICER MICHAELS
Can I see your ID?
ROB
Um...okay...
Rob takes his shaking, sweaty hand, sticks it in his
pocket, and pulls out his fake ID. He slowly hands it over to
Officer Slater. The cops both look at it, then Rob. Beads
of sweat are running down Rob's face.
In the background, Graham pops up and starts kicking the guy's
car out of anger. Ricky and the driver both restrain Graham.
OFFICER SLATER
You're an organ donor?
ROB
What?
OFFICER SLATER
I didn't want to be one but my wife
insisted.
OFFICER MICHAELS
Just like a woman. Even after you're
dead, they want to tear your heart out.
The officers start laughing. Rob is shocked. They hand
back the ID.

61 CONTINUED: (2) 61
ROB
Look. I'm really sorry, but I don't
really have any information. I didn't
really see him. His fist hit here.
Rob points at his giant black eye.
OFFICER MICHAELS
Are you in a hurry or something?
ROB
Uh, yeah... kinda. I kinda had to catch a
bus.
OFFICER SLATER
Where were you going?
ROB
Umm... near thirteenth and Granville.
OFFICER SLATER
We'll take you there, get your
information on the way. Sit tight.
Rob is completely dumbfounded.

The driver is pleading with Graham and Ricky.
DRIVER
I'm so sorry, man! I'm so sorry! I didn't
see you at all. Are you okay? Are you
okay? I'm sorry, man. Look, what can I
do? Are you okay?
The driver glances at the cop car.
DRIVER (CONT'D)
I mean, please don't report me, we can
figure this out, okay?
GRAHAM
Why wouldn't I report you?
DRIVER
Because I'll do anything! Please!
Anything! What can I do?
GRAHAM
You have any money?

62 CONTINUED: 62
RICKY
(quietly to Graham)
What are you doing?
DRIVER
(beat)
Fine. Just take it.
The driver reaches into his pocket and hands Graham some money.
Graham looks at it. It's seven dollars.
GRAHAM
What is this? This isn't enough.
Graham stuffs the money in his pocket.
DRIVER
It's all I have.
GRAHAM
Well, you just came from the liquor
store, give us your liquor.
DRIVER
I didn't get any. They're not letting
anyone in. They're arresting someone or
something.
GRAHAM
Well, they'll be arresting somebody else
if you don't do something quick. Ow! My
shoulder! It's killing me.
Graham, acting poorly, pretends he's way more hurt than he is.
DRIVER
No! Wait! Okay, you want alcohol? I can
get you alcohol. I'm on my way to this
party right now. There's gonna be tons of
liquor. I will definitely get you plenty.
GRAHAM
You better.
RICKY
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on. Come here.
Graham goes over to Ricky.
RICKY (CONT'D)
What are you doing?

GRAHAM
What? Jules' money is gone, Rob's out,
we've got no other option. Let's go.
RICKY
I don't....I don't like this idea at all.
I'm just not feeling it. That guy's
fucking creepy. Just look at him.
They look at the Driver, who is staring at Ricky with a dumb
expression on his face.
DRIVER
(to Ricky)
You know a guy named Jimmy, perchance?
Cause you totally look like his brother.
GRAHAM
He's an idiot. And he's our only hope.
Come on, don't break your promise to
Helen.
EXT. LIQUOR STORE - MOMENTS LATER
63 63
The Driver's car pulls away with Graham and Ricky sitting in the
back seat. A few moments later, the cops walk out with Rob
right behind them carrying the bags of liquor.
OFFICER SLATER
(to Rob)
Man, that lady just wouldn't stop crying,
huh? And you're the one that got punched.
Did you hear her say she has an exam
tomorrow? Boo-fuckin'-hoo. Am I right?
ROB
(afraid)
Heh. Good one.
OFFICER MICHEALS
Could we have taken her in? Just to scare
the shit out of her?
OFFICER SLATER
Hah. Probably could have found a way. But
a good general rule is only take people
in you want to ride with. And whiny
bitches don't make that cut.
The cops chuckle as they all get in the cop car.

GRAHAM
Aaah!
Graham fishes his cell phone out of his pocket and looks at it.

GRAHAM
Jules! I just got in a cab and I'm going
to the liquor store as we speak.
JULES
Awesome. I can't wait for you to get

A huge smile sweeps across Graham's face.
GRAHAM
Really?

65 CONTINUED: 65
JULES
Yeah. It looks like it could actually be
a great party. I think, like, tons of
people might show up. I hope they don't
trash my house.
GRAHAM
Well, if they want to do that they're
going to have to get through me.
JULES
So I guess I don't have to worry then.
I'll see you soon.
Graham hangs up the phone, completely elated.
GRAHAM
She called, man! That's insane! She's
practically begging for it. She said, "I
can't wait for you to get here."
DRIVER
That sounds like she fully wants it.
Where's she gonna get it from, huh, my
man?
Graham and Ricky are very weirded out.

The Driver's car pulls up in front of a house. The three get

RICKY
Hey, are you sure that it's cool we're

Oh, definitely. I'm essentially best

The boys enter the house and stand by the front door of the

INT. HOUSE PARTY - KITCHEN
68 68
They enter the kitchen, where Graham spots what they've been
looking for. There are big buckets of ice filled with beer,
coolers, wine, vodka, everything.
GRAHAM
Holy shit! Let's grab one of these
buckets and go.
MARK (O.S.)
What the fuck do you think you're doing?
DRIVER (O.S.)
What, man? It's nothing.
The guys turn and see that in corner of the kitchen, the
Driver, holding a phone, is being yelled at by a massive
brute, MARK.
MARK
You calling more of your stupid friends
again? Ya prick.
DRIVER
Mark, calm down, okay? Just relax.
MARK
Get the fuck out of my house.
DRIVER
Mark, come on. What the heck? Don't be a

stands up.
DRIVER (CONT'D)
Fuck you, man. I'll fucking do this!
Suddenly, Mark becomes enraged. He takes a big step forward
and brutally KICKS the Driver square in the nuts!
The Driver clutches his nuts and falls to the ground.
MARK
Francis, you and your idiot friends stay

Mark and his buddies head back in, leading them towards Graham

The frightened boys walk into one of the first rooms and hide
in the corner. They have a hushed discussion.
RICKY
Dude, let's slip out the back.
GRAHAM
Why? Come on, we're here. Let's just
hurry up and do this.
RICKY
You want to end up like that guy? Not me,
I need my nuts.
GRAHAM
We need this liquor!
RICKY
You need it! I don't need it. I'm going
to tell Helen I like her, and then maybe
she'll get with me; not after I get her
stinking drunk.
(CONTINUED)
54.
70 CONTINUED: 70
GRAHAM
Then why haven't you ever made a move,
you pussy?
RICKY
Because I respect her! I'm not going to
put that kind of unfair pressure on her.
GRAHAM
These aren't girls, they're women! They
need our dicks as much as we need their
poons - and we all love liquor, so
where's the fucking beef?!
RICKY
We're leaving, okay? These guys could
kill us. You want to get killed for
liquor?
GRAHAM
You're really gonna bail on me?!
RICKY
(rolls eyes)
Jesus...
Ricky walks out the door.
GRAHAM
Okay, okay...if that's how you're going

And you're not getting any. And neither
is Helen!
Graham storms off.

Rob sits in the backseat. The cops are in the front. There
is silence for a few beats.
ROB
Um...hey...uh, officers. I could answer
those, uh, questions now if you want.
OFFICER SLATER
We get the gist of it. You were buying
some beer, some guys came in and robbed
the place. I don't think we're gonna find
`em this time.
The officers start to chuckle.
(CONTINUED)

71 CONTINUED: 71
ROB
It was only one guy.
OFFICER SLATER
Only one guy? Well, fuck that. We could
never catch one guy.
OFFICER MICHAELS
You see, McLovin, if it was two guys,
we'd have twice the chance of catching
one of them. But just one guy? I mean,
how are we supposed to find one guy in
this whole city?
OFFICER SLATER
Yeah, McLovin. You know how many people
there are in this city? I have trouble
finding people I know.
ROB
Aren't you guys supposed to be trained or
something? Don't you have a computer?
OFFICER SLATER
Yeah, that stuff can help, but if someone
walks up to me on the street, and is
like, "Hey, find Bob." Well, how the hell
am I supposed to do that?
ROB
Who's Bob?
OFFICER SLATER
Exactly. If I don't know who he is, then
how am I supposed to know where he is?
OFFICER MICHAELS
When you're new to the force, like I am-
OFFICER SLATER
Only six months in.

locates a cooler full of it across the dance area.
He tries to make his way through the sea of dancing. A hot,
sorority-type WOMAN drunk out off her ass dances over to him

ROB
You've been in shoot-outs!

Nope.

Oh!!! Right? I fucking said that. Then,
she slaps me, throws me out. I'm telling
you McLovin, stay out of bars.
ROB
Hey, you don't need to tell me.
OFFICER MICHAELS
So, yeah, you gotta look in different
places. The gym, an art class, you know,
shit like that.
OFFICER SLATER
I met the Missus at paint ball. Can you

we just hit it off. And my first wife --
who is a whore -- where do you think we

I don't know. I find they're always good

Yeah McLovin, how's it going with the
ladies?
Rob thinks for a moment, he is feeling rather comfortable.

Well, officers, it's not the going with

He spots a fridge in the corner and walks over to it. As he
opens it, a look of awe sweeps across his face. Every shelf
is completely filled with beer.
GRAHAM
Jesus's tits!
He grabs as many bottles as he can and starts sticking them
in his pockets, when he notices two large jugs of detergent

Helen is in a cab with BECCA, her best-friend, and two other

HELEN
Hello?
BECCA
Is it him?
HELEN
(whispering to the girls)
Shut up.
RICKY
Hey! Helen. Hi. I had bad reception. Are
you at the party?

RICKY
What's going on there?
HELEN
Oh, nothing, I just wanted to make sure
you were still coming, you know, and that
you didn't get caught up at a cocktail
party or some club.
RICKY
Nope. I'm gonna be there.

Well, I can't wait to see you.

Ricky hangs up the phone. A huge smile crosses his face. As he
turns around to exit, five older, unbelievably drunk DUDES
wander into the room.
DUDE 1
They're going to kill that guy, man. That
bitch's boyfriend is so pissed.
DUDE 2
Yeah. And he's a beast.
They start pouring a baggy of coke on the table when one of
them notices Ricky standing in the corner.
DUDE 3
Hey! Was it you? Are you the guy? The kid
with the splotch on his crotch?
Ricky glances down at his crotch. He is confused and
horrified.
RICKY
No. What splotch-

I know you! Guys! I know that guy, he was
at that party with me.
DUDE 4
Who's he?
DUDE 2
He's Jimmy's brother. The dude with the
crazy raps, the one I told you about!
They draw the coke into lines as Ricky slowly heads for the
door.
RICKY
Oh no, that's not me either. Wrong guy,
man. Sorry.
Dude 3 gets up and blocks the door.
DUDE 3
No. No, that's you, man. You are fully
Jimmy's brother! You were just so messed
up you can't remember.
RICKY
Trust me, man. That wasn't me. I don't
even listen to rap.
DUDE 3
It was you! I know it! Come on! Rap! I've
been telling these guys about you. Just
give them one rap. Come on. Rap. Rap.
They start doing the lines of coke. Ricky is very afraid.

There! That's the guy!
Graham turns and sees Mark, the guy who assaulted the Driver,
walking towards him. He notices Mark has a splotch on his
leg, too.
GRAHAM
Hey! You got one, too! We're blood
brothers.
MARK
Shut it, you little shitter! What the
hell were you doing dancing with
Jacinda?
Horrified, Graham scrambles for excuses.
GRAHAM
I...I didn't dance with her! I don't even
dance! Never even tried it!
MARK
(point at Graham's splotch)
Then where did that come from, asshole?

I supposed to know?

There is a crowd gathered around Graham and Mark. The Enormous
Guy and Mark's friends are gathered beside Mark.
GRAHAM
I swear to God it wasn't me!
Ricky and the four dudes who were doing coke walk into the
room. Ricky is shocked to see Graham at the center of so much
commotion. Mark notices the detergent bottle in Graham's hands.
MARK
And what the fuck is this?
GRAHAM
It's nothing. It's detergent.
MARK
Yeah. And what are you doing with it?
GRAHAM
I...uh, I got blood on my pants.
Mark sees the bottle of MIKE'S HARD LEMONADE in Graham's pocket
and takes it out. He looks at it, then looks at Graham with a
look of death.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
I brought them from home.
Suddenly, Mark violently SHOVES Graham and throws the beer
bottle at his face!!! Graham holds up a detergent jug and
deflects the beer bottle.

Dude 1 clutches his bloody head as the other Dudes charge at
Mark! A full on brawl breaks out! Everyone starts fighting!
Two of the Dudes beat on the Enormous Guy. They throw him
into Ricky.
DUDE 3
Hold him!
RICKY
What?
DUDE 2
HOLD HIM!!!
Ricky reluctantly holds the Enormous Guy up as the two Dudes
pound on him.
ANGLE ON: Graham, cowering in the corner
Mark runs at Graham and is about to punch him, when suddenly
Dude 1 tackles him onto the kitchen island! Graham turns and
faces Mark's girlfriend, JACINDA.
JACINDA
You motherfucker!
She grabs a lamp, still plugged in, and swings it at Graham.
She hits him square in the chest and the light bulb explodes!
GRAHAM
AHH!!!
JACINDA
You ruined my birthday!!! You humiliated
me!!!
GRAHAM
You're the one who used my leg as a
tampon!
She charges at him again, arms flailing. Graham scurries around
the room, shielding the blows with the detergent bottles.
Ricky throws the Enormous Guy to the ground and runs. Ricky
backs off, spots Graham, and follows him out of the party.

OFFICER SLATER
You've been saying some bold words, my
friend. Better not mess up.
ROB
You can do it, officer.
BLAM!!! Michaels blasts off a round, which punches a hole
right through the center of the "O" in the stop sign.
OFFICER MICHAELS
Boo-yaka-sha!!! Suck it, Slater. Suck my
nuts. Long, but gentle.
ROB
Yeah! And eat his ass!
They all laugh hysterically.
ROB (CONT'D)
Can I shoot one?
The cops look at each other and shrug.
OFFICER SLATER
Yeah. Sure. Here. Go nuts.
Slater hands Rob the gun, when suddenly a SIREN can be
heard in the distance getting closer.

RICKY
No I didn't!
GRAHAM
Of course you did! We were supposed to do
something and you left instead of doing
it! That's the definition of bailing!
RICKY
If you said we should burn our dicks off
and I didn't, that's not bailing!
GRAHAM
It is bailing, if you promised to burn
your dick off!
RICKY
What?!
GRAHAM
The bottom line is you're a bailer. You
just bailed on me, you bailed on me this
morning when Terry spat on me, and you're
bailing on me next year!
RICKY
Oh! Okay! There it is! It finally comes
out!
GRAHAM
We were supposed to go to college
together! Since elementary school! What
ever happened to that!
RICKY
What happened to that, is that you're too
stupid to get into the schools I did!
GRAHAM
I was not too stupid, I was too lazy!
RICKY
You've wasted all my time, you selfish
bastard!!! Instead of chasing girls and
making friends, I threw away the last
three years talking bullshit with you!
And now, because of you, I'm going to
college a fucking friendless virgin!
Graham can't believe it. He's extremely hurt.

desk.
ROB
So, like, what does that computer do?
OFFICER SLATER
Pretty much anything, if you're smart
enough to figure it out. Like, who do you
really hate? Gimme a name.
ROB
Um...my French teacher. Mrs. Graham.
Susette Graham.
OFFICER MICHAELS
Can I do it?
Slater nods. Michaels bring her file up, then punches a few
buttons and smiles.

Slater gets his flashlight and points it out the window.

bit more awake than before.
OFFICER MICHAELS (CONT'D)
Are you awake, sir?
The guy starts to open his eyes a little. Michaels grabs the
guy's face and slams it back, knocking him out again. Rob
jumps a little.
OFFICER MICHEALS
I'm sorry, McLovin. But I really need
this to be a private thing.

ROB

Umm, yeah, sure. You guys are great.
OFFICER MICHAELS
Yeah, well, we're also on probation. You
see, we've actually trashed two other
cars. The first time wasn't our fault,
and the second time a bee flew in and I
freaked out. Point is, we trash another
car, without a good reason, we're fucked.
Know what I'm saying?
Rob continues to painfully suck back on the cigarette.
ROB
Sure.
OFFICER MICHAELS
Now, we're going to arrest these guys,
and if you don't mind, which you
shouldn't, we'd like you to write a fake
witness report saying they jumped out in
front of our car. Cool, McLovin?

Everyone starts cheering! Graham sets it out on the kitchen
table; it is an impressive array of inebriates.
GRAHAM
The bar is open!
EVERYONE
(ecstatically cheering)
Yeah Graham!/Clutch!/Nice!/I can't believe
it!/Graham did that?!/ Who the fuck is
Graham?
In the background, we see Ricky and Rob wander into the
party as Jules approaches Graham.
JULES
This is awesome. Thank you so much.
GRAHAM
Sorry it was late.
JULES
Yeah. To be honest, people were starting
to get seriously pissed off. Listen, I've
got to go tell everyone the drinks are
here. Don't go anywhere. Promise?
GRAHAM
I'll be right here.
Jules walks off.
INT. JULES' KITCHEN - MOMENTS LATER

Tons of kids pour themselves drinks. Graham and about six other
kids all have overflowing shots of Jaeger.
GRAHAM
To Jules!
Everyone drinks and recoils from the taste. A random guy
refills everyone's shot glasses.
RANDOM GUY
(pointing to Graham)
Another one, but to you, man! Everyone,
to this guy! Who the fuck are you, man?
GRAHAM
(exuberant)
Graham!

Ricky walks out onto the back porch, looking for Helen. He
sees Becca.
RICKY
Becca! Hey.
BECCA
Where have you been, you almost blew it.
RICKY
What?
BECCA
Helen. She's been waiting for you. She's
right over there. She's been yammering
about you all night.
RICKY
What? What did she say? Does she think
I'm a good guy? What did she say?
BECCA
It was something like, "I'll fully blow
him tonight."
RICKY
What?!?
Ricky looks over and sees Helen standing on the balcony with a
big group of people. He gets really nervous.
RICKY (CONT'D)
Oh man. This is too much. Oh god. What do
I do? I lost the Goldschlager I was
supposed to bring her!
(CONTINUED)
89.
120 CONTINUED: 120
BECCA
Well, Jordana stole a bottle of tequila
from her parents and her and Helen have
been going at it. I think she'll be fine
in that department. I'd just go over
there and invite her upstairs, pronto.
RICKY
What? Oh man...
(so nervous)
But...she's totally hammered. If I get
with her, and I'm not drunk, isn't that,
like, date rape?
BECCA
It's not date rape if you're drunk, too.
RICKY
I guess.
Ricky looks at Helen and takes a deep breath.
INT. JULES BATHROOM - MOMENTS LATER
121 121
Ricky enters the bathroom and slams the door shut, a bottle of
Ouzo in one hand and a beer in the other. He looks at himself
in the mirror, seeming as though he's on the verge of a full-
on panic attack.
RICKY
(panting)
Calm down, Ricky. She likes you. She wants
to suck on your penis. That's a good
thing.
He opens the Ouzo and smells it, recoiling in disgust.
RICKY (CONT'D)
Down the hatch.
Ricky takes a mighty swig, then gags and spits it out,
spraying it everywhere.
INT. JULES' DEN/ DINING ROOM- CONTINUOUS
122 122
Rob sits bored in front of the TV, drinking a beer. He
watches a bunch of girls flirt with some boys. Everyone is
talking and laughing while he sits alone.
He walks over to the doorway of a room filled with girls
dancing. In the corner dancing is Nicola. He stares at her
for a moment, then goes back and sits in front of the TV.
(CONTINUED)
90.
122 CONTINUED: 122
He changes the channel and "COPS" comes on the screen. It
shows two cops chasing a crack head, tackling him and knee
dropping him. Rob ponders as he watches "COPS." He throws
back the rest of his beer and marches into the room Nicola is
dancing in.
He walks up to Nicola, who is by far the best-looking girl in
the room, and starts dancing with her. She looks a bit thrown
at first, but after a few beats, she seems to like it.
ROB
They call you Nicola, right?
NICOLA
And they call you Rob.
ROB
Some do.
They continue dancing.

drunk, stands up, arms reached out, and tries to walk in a

blue-tinted beer from the detergent jug.
INT. JULES BATHROOM

- Ricky can't keep his balance as he tries to touch his nose

steps out of the bathroom.
EXT. BACKYARD - CONTINUOUS
129 129
Ricky walks out on the balcony. He spots the circle of people
Helen was standing in, only now Helen is laying on the
ground, laughing hysterically. Everyone in the circle is
looking at her and laughing as well. Ricky is extremely
nervous. Helen looks up and spots him.
HELEN
(laughing)
Ricky!!! Hey! Come here!!!
Ricky takes a deep breath walks up to where she's laying. She
extends her arms.
HELEN (CONT'D)
Help me up! None of these people will
help me up!
Ricky notices that she seems a little drunk. He helps her up
and she collapses onto him, forcing him to hold her up.
RICKY
Hey, Helen. Sorry I was-
Helen laughs hysterically as she latches onto Ricky. He smells
her breath. It reeks of alcohol.
Ricky's drunk, but Helen is completely fucking shit-faced!
HELEN
Ricky! Oh my god! You are so fucking
hilarious!
(to the group)
Do you goes know how fucking hilarious
Ricky is?
(to Ricky)
Tell them how hilarious you are!

Helen starts laughing hysterically.
HELEN (CONT'D)
See?!! He is so cute!
The group chuckles a little. Helen puts her arms around Ricky.
HELEN (CONT'D)
I've been waiting for you for, like,
ever. What took you so long? Do you have
my Goldschlager?
RICKY
Oh man, it's a crazy story-
Helen picks up a bottle of tequila and shoves it into Ricky's
hand.
HELEN
Here! Don't worry, we can drink this.
RICKY
I'm already pretty wasted.
But...uh...here's to you.
Ricky takes a much-unwanted drink and gags.
HELEN
Light-weight!
Everyone laughs.
HELEN (CONT'D)
Hey...me and you should go upstairs now.
I really want to...tell you something.
RICKY

JULES
Hey, I'm back. I had to thank the peeps
for comin' out.
GRAHAM
(really, really, drunk)
Jules! The hostess with the most-est! The
woman of the hour!
Graham takes a swig of a beer.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
This party's blowin' my ass off! I want
you to have a drink with me.
Graham offers her a beer.
JULES
No, thanks. I'm good. But, seriously,
thanks for getting all the drinks. It
really made the night.
GRAHAM
It's just how I roll, Jules. No problems,
no problems.
Jules laughs and Graham sees that his charm is working.
(CONTINUED)
94.
131 CONTINUED: 131
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
Uh...you know...I love talking, and
conversing with you, you're so good at
it, but I can't hear you. Could we just
go on the...uh...balcony or something?
Jules eyes Graham suspiciously. Graham just looks at her, smiling
drunkenly.
JULES
Why not? I haven't conversed in ages.
Let's do it.
Jules walks out of the kitchen. He finishes off his beer and
then, happy as shit, drunkenly dances out of the kitchen and
after Jules.
INT. JULES' BEDROOM - CONTINUOUS
132 132
Ricky practically holds Helen up, almost dropping her several
times, as they stumble into Jules' bedroom. Helen puts down
the tequila and starts kissing Ricky, but it's not nice
kissing, it's sloppy porno kissing with way too much tongue.
After a few moments Ricky pulls away and looks at the
remarkably drunk Helen.
RICKY
Are you okay?
HELEN
I so flirt with you in Math.
RICKY
Oh man. Helen...I want to tell you, I
mean, I've wanted to tell you, for a long
time-
HELEN
I know. I've wanted to get with you so
hard.
Helen kisses him.
HELEN (CONT'D)
Like...so hard.
Helen yanks him onto the bed and starts sloppily kissing him
again. Ricky doesn't know what to do. She tries to take off
Ricky's shirt, but is way too inebriated to undo the buttons.
Ricky yanks it off.
HELEN (CONT'D)
Good...
(CONTINUED)
95.
132 CONTINUED: 132
Helen stands up and starts to waver back and forth. She looks
like she's about to tip over, but she catches herself and
sloppily tries to strike a sexy pose like a model.
Ricky watches in dread as she starts to strip, pulling her
shirt over her head, completely failing to look sexual.
As Ricky watches the tragedy unfold, he grabs the bottle of
tequila and takes a big swig. Helen sits on the floor and
concentrates on untying her shoes.
HELEN (CONT'D)
What the fuck...stupid shoe...
Ricky moves over to help her. He can't do it either.
RICKY
Shit. Can you, like, slip out?
Helen tries to squeeze her feet out, but she can't. She grabs
a pair of scissors off a desk.
RICKY (CONT'D)
Whoa. Fuckin'...careful.
She snips off the knot and slips her shoe off.
HELEN
You...take off your pants...
(drunkenly waving the scissors)
Or I'll cut `em off.
Helen laughs as she staggers to her feet and start kissing
Ricky. He starts taking off his pants.

ROB
Well, you're about to learn a few things.

EXT. JULES' FRONT PORCH - CONTINUOUS
134 134
Jules and Graham step out onto the front porch. There is no one
else out there. The moment the door closes behind them, Graham
turns to Jules and puts his hands on her hips. He stares into
her eyes and moves in for the kiss.
Jules instantly pulls back.
JULES
Whoa! Whoa! Slow down.
GRAHAM
What? What's wrong?
JULES
I'd...uh...prefer if we did this at some
other time.
GRAHAM
(confused)
But...there is no other time. School's
up! This is the only time...what's wrong
with now?
JULES
Well, you're drunk. Like, really, really
drunk.
GRAHAM
So? So are you.
JULES
I'm not drunk at all. I don't even drink.
Graham is absolutely shocked. It takes his remarkably drunk
mind a moment to process this information.
GRAHAM
You don't drink? But...but, you told me
to get the liquor!
JULES
Yeah, I'm...uh...throwin' a party,
remember?
GRAHAM
You don't drink!?!
JULES
No. I don't drink.

GRAHAM
And you, don't want to...uh, you know...
JULES
Uh, no. Not right now, thank you very
much.
Graham looks at Jules and realizes that he's screwed up. His
eyes start to water.
GRAHAM
Ahhh....man...fuck....
Graham starts to cry.
JULES
Are you crying?
GRAHAM
No! Yeah, so what if I am? I'm a fucking
idiot and it was my last chance! So I
should be crying.
JULES
Last chance to do what?
GRAHAM
To make you my girlfriend for the summer,
okay? There! You're, like, the coolest
person that's ever talked to me, and I
thought we'd both be drunk, but...
JULES
What would me be drunk have anything to
do with it?
GRAHAM
`Cause you'd never get with me in your
right mind! Look at me!
(beat)
And now look at you!
Suddenly, the front door opens, and a RANDOM GIRL walks out.
RANDOM GIRL
(yelling into the house)
Hey, Ricky! Was it a quarter, or an
eighth you want?
RICKY (O.S.)
A fat eighth!
The Random Girl notices Graham and Jules.

Ricky sitting on the bed in only his boxers, and Helen is just
getting her pants off, leaving her only in her lingerie.
Ricky's eyes widen. She looks at Ricky and rubs her breasts in
a very un-sexy way.
HELEN
I wore this for you. Here we go...
Helen crawls onto the bed, pushes Ricky down, and starts
seriously making out with him, drunker and sloppier than
ever.
HELEN (CONT'D)
Ricky, I'm so wet.
RICKY
(still nervous)
You're so beautiful.
Helen shoves her hand down Ricky's boxers. Ricky jolts,
terrified!
HELEN
You've got such a smooth cock.
RICKY
Um...thank you. I've thought you were a
really incredible person for a really
long time.
Ricky looks really nervous as Helen's hand starts moving up
and down.
HELEN
You've got to get hard for me...real
hard.
RICKY
I'm...I'm..I'm about to. But first I just
want to tell you exactly how I-

I'm gonna suck your dick so good.
Ricky is taken aback.

You don't have to do that, you know, we
can start this relationship on something
more than just that.

I need you to eat my hairy love crack.
RICKY
Jesus Christ.
Ricky sits up.
HELEN
What's wrong?
Beat.
RICKY
You don't want to do this.
HELEN
Yeah I do, I want to fuck you.
RICKY
Look, you know I really like you, Helen,
but this is...it's just too intense. And
I'm so drunk I don't even know how to,
like, process-
HELEN
You're just being a pussy.
RICKY
What? Did you just call me a...pussy?
HELEN
Yeah...a scared little pussy-
PUKE! Ricky watches in horror as Helen vomits all over Jules'
bed.

JULES (CONT'D)
You didn't blow it, you're a-
Graham blanks out and falls forward. BAM! He head-butts Jules
in the face!
JULES (CONT'D)

cop car pulls up in front of the house. Graham opens his eyes
and sees the cops.

No...I'm helping you, man! Just listen...
Graham grabs Ricky's wrists and tries to pull him to his feet.

Fuck off, jerk! You're hurting my
shoulders!
Just then, Terry (the guy who spat on Graham in the beginning)

can only mean one thing. Someone opens the door, revealing
Officer Slater and Officer Michaels! They talk to whoever
answered the door, oblivious of Ricky and Graham.
OFFICER SLATER
We had a complaint about the noise. It
looks like you're having a nice little
party here.
OFFICER MICHAELS
A nice little underage drinking party.
Ricky points at the cops.

of the living room just as the cops step into it.
OFFICER SLATER
Okay, everyone out. Party's over. Get out
of here.
Michaels turns to Slater.
OFFICER SLATER(CONT'D)

OFFICER SLATER
Alright, boys. What I'm about to show you
is pretty much the greatest move in donut-
spinning history. Behold: the reverse

Slater drives to the other side of the lot.
ROB
So, like, what's your official position?
OFFICER MICHAELS
If you were in, you were in. You are no
longer a virgin, end of story. Screw
cumming.
Suddenly, Slater guns it and speeds across the lot, slamming
the breaks, spinning wildly in several erratic donuts
backward donuts.
Slater completely loses control of the car. He smashes
through a bunch of shopping carts and slams into a light
post, completely fucking up the cruiser.

Of course. That mugger had nothing but
murder in his eyes. I owe you my life.
Rob signs the pad.
OFFICER MICHAELS
Can we do this already?
The cops and Rob push the cruiser towards a small, but
steep, hill. They shove it over the edge and watch it roll.
It gains speed and smashes into a tree, shattering the
windows and crushing the front of the car.
OFFICER MICHAELS (CONT'D)
Can we shoot at it?

I can't believe she said that shit.
RICKY
Oh my lord. You have no idea!
(CONTINUED)
108.
147 CONTINUED: 147
They laugh harder.
RICKY (CONT'D)
And then you saved me, man! I fucking
love you!
GRAHAM
I fucking love you, too, man! I'm not
embarrassed, I just love you!
RICKY
Why don't we say that more? It feels
good! I love you more than my brother,
man. Like, when you went away for Easter
last year, I, like, missed you. You know?
GRAHAM
I missed you, too. Come here, man.
Graham grabs Ricky and they hug.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
We'll always be friends. `Cause we love
each other.
They stop hugging and sit back down. They're laughter slows
down and there is a moment of silence.
GRAHAM (CONT'D)
Like, three weeks ago I was in you room
and, like, you were taking a dump and...I
saw your residence placement thingy. I
totally saw you're living with Rob.
So, like-
RICKY
I'm sorry, man.
GRAHAM
Don't be! Don't be! I'm sorry. I was
being a bitch.
RICKY
I need you to know that it's not like I
even want to live with Rob; it's just
that I'm really afraid of living with
strangers.
There is a moment of silence.
(CONTINUED)
109.
147 CONTINUED: (2) 147
GRAHAM
You know...I was pissed off I didn't get
with Jules, but, like...we really got
through a lot of our shit, you know?
RICKY
Yeah, me too. Like, yeah...at least we
kind of came together, again.
Beat.
RICKY (CONT'D)
Good night, Graham. I love you.
GRAHAM
Night, Ricky. Love you, man.
INT. RICKY'S HOUSE - BASEMENT - THE NEXT MORNING
148 148
Ricky wakes up and looks over at Graham, who is also waking.
They look at each other extremely awkwardly, almost as though
they drunkenly had sex with each other last night.
RICKY
Oh...uh...hey. Morning.
GRAHAM
Uh...morning.
They stare at each other, uncomfortable.
RICKY
You sleep good?
GRAHAM
Yeah. This is a really good pillow.
RICKY
Um...
Graham looks at his watch.
GRAHAM
Maybe I should get going.
RICKY
You don't have to. I'm not, like, doing
anything.
Beat.
(CONTINUED)
110.
148 CONTINUED: 148
GRAHAM
Oh...do you want to hang out? I
was...gonna go to the mall, actually.
RICKY
Oh. Cool, well, can I come? I need a
comforter. For college.
GRAHAM
Yeah. That'd be nice. I'd really like
that.
INT. DEPARTMENT STORE - NEXT DAY
149 149
Ricky is standing in the pants section of a department store.
Graham walks out of the dressing room wearing jeans that are
way too small.
RICKY
Don't ask me. I don't give a shit if your
pants look good.
GRAHAM
Well, I need someone's opinion.
RICKY
Fine. They're way too small.
GRAHAM
Yeah, but when I was wearing your dad's
pants last night I realized that if I buy
pants that are too small it'll encourage
me to lose weight. And in tight pants
chicks'll kind of see my dick a little.
RICKY
Yeah, the male camel toe look is really
big this year.
Graham goes back into the dressing room and wriggles out of the
pants. He walks out.
GRAHAM
These pants suck. Let's the get the fuck
out of here.
INT. DEPARTMENT STORE
150 150
They walk through the department store, when suddenly, Ricky
sees Helen and Jules looking at comforters.
ANGLE ON: Helen and Jules
(CONTINUED)
111.
150 CONTINUED: 150
HELEN
Again, I'm so sorry. I can't believe I
actually did that.
JULES
I feel sorry that I'm making you buy me a
new one.
HELEN
I have to. It's puke.
ANGLE ON: Graham and Ricky
RICKY
Holy shit!
Helen looks like hell and Jules has a horrible black eye.
GRAHAM
Is that them?
They stare at the two girls from afar.
RICKY
Should we hide?
Helen looks and notices them. She waves and points them out
to Jules. Graham and Ricky wave back. The girls get up and start
to walk over.
GRAHAM
(pretending to smile)
Fuck that, man. I can't talk to her, look
what I did to her!
RICKY
(pretending to smile)
Helen called me a pussy to my face! What
am I going to say to her?
The girls walk up to them.
HELEN JULES
Hi Ricky, Graham. Hey guys.
RICKY GRAHAM
Hi Helen, Hi Jules. Jules. Helen. Hi.
Everyone looks very embarrassed.
GRAHAM
Oh my god. I'm so sorry, Jules.
(CONTINUED)
112.
150 CONTINUED: (2) 150
JULES
It's okay.
RICKY
(to Helen)
How are you feeling?
HELEN
Not bad, but not great, how about you?
GRAHAM
(to Jules)
That looks terrible. No! I mean, it
doesn't look terrible, it looks-
JULES
Don't worry about it, Graham. It was an
accident.
RICKY
(to Helen)
Did you have fun last night?
JULES
(to Graham)
Do you remember much?
HELEN
(to Ricky)
I really don't remember much.
GRAHAM
(to Jules)
Not really. I remember looking up, and
you screaming at me. That's about it.
Jules laughs.
HELEN
(to Ricky)
I didn't puke on you, did I?
Ricky laughs.
RICKY
No, I dodged it. Whizzed right by me.
GRAHAM
(to Jules)
But seriously, I acted like a fuckin'
idiot last night. I'm really sorry, you
didn't deserve that.
(CONTINUED)
113.
150 CONTINUED: (3) 150
HELEN
(to Ricky)
Yeah, I...um...I'm sorry, about all that.
Thanks for being such a gentleman.
There is a moment of silence.
GRAHAM
You look good with a black eye.
They all chuckle a little.
JULES
Thanks, smart guy. That's why I'm here. I
have to go to Macy's to get a shitload of
cover-up for the grad photo.
GRAHAM
(mortified)
Oh man...
HELEN
Yeah, and I'm going to Linen Brothers to
buy Jules a new comforter.
RICKY
Oh! I have to get a comforter too, for
college.
JULES
(flirtatiously, joking)
So, you gonna come with me to Macy's and
buy me my cover-up, or what?
GRAHAM
Yes! Definitely. I'd love to. I had such
bad acne last year, I became an expert on
the stuff.
RICKY
You could get your college pants there.
GRAHAM
Yeah, but wait...you drove me here, Ricky
drove me here, how do we-
JULES
I've got my dad's car. I'll take you
home, and Ricky can give Helen a lift.
HELEN
That sounds good.
(CONTINUED)
114.
150 CONTINUED: (4) 150
RICKY
Maybe we can go eat after?
HELEN
Sweet.
Graham and Ricky look at each other, odd smiles on both their
faces. They didn't blow it.
GRAHAM
So, uh, I'll call you later.
RICKY
Yeah man, have a good one.
JULES
Come on, Graham. Let's go.
Jules pulls Graham away. Ricky and Helen start walking in the
opposite direction.
As they walk away from one another, Graham and Ricky look back
and give each other a small and yet emotionally-charged wave.
A SLOW, GUT WRENCHING SOUL SONG STARTS TO PLAY. They look as
though they're never going to see each other again.
INT. MACY'S ESCALATOR
151 151
As Jules and Graham walk into Macy's and Helen and Ricky descend
an escalator, the music swells to a mind-fuckingly awesome
crescendo, and we humbly fade to black...
THE END
END CREDIT SEQUENCE:
We flip through Graham's seemingly endless penis drawings from
childhood. They are hilarious.
