Scene 1
Jeremy and Clary enter the room from Centre stage left. They smile mischievously as they walk towards downstage centre to the secretary’s office.
Jeremy: Dude, what’s the time?
Faith: There’s a clock right there.

Faith points to the clock just above the secretary’s office. This is obvious to the audience.
Jeremy glares at Faith

Jeremy: DID I ASK WERE THE CLOCK WAS??!!

Faith turns to face Jeremy and just blows a bubble with her gum into his face. Jeremy crosses his arm then turns his back to the audience and storms off towards the desk.

Jeremy: A late note please.
Miss Maria: Here you go, dear.

He writes down his reason on why he was late. Then turns to face the audience, and leans against the wall waiting for Faith.

Faith: *shrugs* Same thing.

Faith also walks up to the office.

Miss Maria: A late note for you to dear?
Faith: Yea...

Faith writes her reason for being late. A noise from upstage left catches her attention and she turns to face the audience but she and Jeremy is looking in the direction of upstage left.
Matt runs in puffing from upstage left and stops and looks at faith.

Matt: I like your make up Faith.....lol Jokes, it looks like you got gangbanged by Crayola!

Faith glares at Matt as he and Jeremy start cracking up laughing.
Faith then pulls out a book from her bag and walks up to Matt, but makes sure that half her body is turned into the direction of the audience.

Faith: Here’s the deal Matt. Find the nearest book; go to page 170, last paragraph, and 2nd sentence onward. These sentences, WILL DEFINE YOU LIFE.

Faith shoved the Twilight book into his chest and Matt catches it. He eyes Faith then opens the book to the page. Jeremy walks up to the them and stands behind Faith, peering over her shoulder.

Matt: About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him – and I didn’t know how potent that part might be – that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.

Matt looks up at Faith and Jeremy and finds them laughing. He shoves the book back into Faiths chest.

Jeremy: *places his fist over his mouth and makes an OHHH noise* Dude, you just got owned!
Matt: *sarcastic voice* Haha! Very funny!

Matt then walks towards the office as Jeremy and Faith exit the stage from centre stage right.

Matt: Late note please..
Miss Maire: Of course dear.

After Matt writes down his excuse he exits the stage from Jeremy’s and Faiths path.


Stage 2
Faith walks on stage swinging her arms in the air from downstage right towards upstage left. She pulls out her iPod and puts it on shuffle.
Faith: *in a loud rapping voice* I’m nerdy in the extreme and whiter than sour cream. I was in A.V Club and glee club and even the chess team. OH MY GOSH!! It’s my theme song!

Jeremy walks in behind her and chuckles. Faith turns around to meet him, but in a positron were the audience can see her.

Faith: hey! It’s a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious theme song ok!?
Jeremy: *shrugs* yea, whatever.

Matt comes in from centre stage right slides and falls onto his back in on centre stage. Jeremy eyes wide stares at Matt. Faith just cracks a smile.

Jeremy: Did you just fall?
Matt: No. I attacked the floor.
Jeremy: Backwards?
Matt: I’m freaking talented!

Jeremy raises an eyebrow while Faith puts her iPod away. Matt stands up and dust his self off.

Matt: We have a problem guys.

Faith and Jeremy both look at Matt concerned.
Faith: What’s up Matt?
Matt: Were being called to the deputy principles office.

Jeremy looks at Faith then glares at Matt. He crosses his arms across his chest.

Jeremy: What did you do now Matt?
Matt: *puts is hand in the air* Nothing! I swear.
Jeremy: Yea right!
Matt: *glares back* I sai–

Faith steps in-between the boys.

Faith: Cut it out. Why don’t we just go to her office and find out what really happened. It can’t be that bad, what have we did so wrong in the last couple of weeks.

Jeremy looks away and starts to whistle. Matt clears his throat and looks down.
Faith sighs and exits the stage. The boys follow.


Stage 3
The deputy principle waits in her office, sitting behind her desk which is on centre stage right. The students enter and sit down on the chairs that face the audience.
Mrs Peacock: I’m going to read something out to you all so listen carefully.
10:17am Jeremy Faulkner’s excuse for being late was....
-Saving the world-
10:19am Clary Dee’s excuse for being late was...
-Destroying the world-
10:31am Matt Tasoni’s excuse for being late was...
-I was an innocent bystander, it was epic!-

Faith tries to hide her smile by looking down onto the floor. The boys start cracking up laughing. The teacher just glares at them so they stop.

Mrs Peacock: This is inappropriate behaviour. I will let you three off but if I see this again you will be put into detention. I hope you had your fun but your fun...finishes here.

Mrs Peacock stands up and so does the students.
Faith: Thank you Mrs
Matt: Yea thanks

Jeremy just grins and they exit the stage.
