  • CURTAINS PART, REVEALING:

    INT. HIGH SCHOOL -- CLASSROOM -- DAY

    A DARK CLASSROOM. Only three spots are lit: THE TEACHER, fast asleep at his desk. A WHITEBOARD, reading DETENTION. And TWO DESKS in the middle of the room. Seated at them are a GIRL IN BLUE and a GIRL IN PINK.

    They sit in silence at first, before PINK decides to speak.

    PINKI like your headband.

    BLUEThanks! Yours is cute too.

    PINKWere like, twins!

    They chuckle.

    PINK (CONTD)Youre new here, right?

    BLUENot really. I mean Ive lived around here like my whole life.

    PINKOh, where?

    BLUEOak Street?

    PINKMe too!

    BLUENo way, thats crazy!

    PINKMy whole life, too.

    BLUE(shriek)

    Sisters!

    More chuckles. Pink notices stars all over Blues papers.

    PINKWait -- are you drawing stars on your notebook?

  • BLUEYeah, I always do that when Im bored --

    BOTH(at once)

    Its a distraction that provides focus!

    Pink shows off her own notebook, covered in stars.

    BLUEOkay, we are just two peas.

    PINKYou can say that again!

    BLUEOkay, we are just two peas.

    Laughs. Then, the two notice a guy walking in --

    PINKUgh. Look who turned up.

    The guy leaves a note with the teacher, who momentarily wakes up. Then the guy leaves.

    BLUEConnor Flynn? Not a fan?

    PINKOf course not.

    BLUEMe neither. One time, at this party --

    PINKHe tried to put your foot in his mouth? And when you said no, he asked if he could just --

    BLUEDraw faces on my toes with a Sharpie then smell them to get high?

    BOTH(at once)

    So lame!

    BLUEHow much can we have in common!

    2.

  • PINKWe are literally the same person.

    BLUEWe are like, one.

    They both get a text at once and check them.

    PINKGod.

    BLUEWhats wrong?

    PINKMy dad just being so overbearing.

    BLUEUgh, mine too!

    PINKYeah, its like everydays an interrogation with him.

    BLUETruuu.

    PINKAnd hes like that with my mom, too. Shell just be like, Terry...

    BLUETerry?

    PINKYeah, thats my dads name.

    BLUEThats my dads name, too!

    PINKTerry... Winfield?

    BLUEThats him!

    PINKNo freaking way. Me too!

    BLUEAnd your mom wouldnt happen to be Lisa-Ann, would it?

    3.

  • PINKShe totally is.

    BLUEAnd they met at --

    BOTH(at once)

    The Chicago World Fair in 89!

    BLUEOh. My. Gosh. So the same guy. Got the same woman pregnant. And she gave birth to both of us.

    PINKGuess that makes us --

    BLUESisters!

    They laugh, hugging even. THE BELL RINGS. The teacher remains asleep. Pink gets up packing her things, Blue stays.

    PINKWe should totally hang out more often.

    BLUEUm, Mr. Trebeck, Ill take Yes Please for 500!

    PINKI think were in jeopardy of becoming best friends.

    BLUESisters one minute, best friends the next.

    PINK(laughs)

    Bye-eee!

    BLUEBye-eee.

    They head out.

    BLACK.

    ROLL CREDITS.
