Trent Please lemme drive it!

Trent If i remember my car dosen't holds itself with steel wire.

Daria What they would do for cars. (she looks at Jane, she's drooling over the car) Nevermind

Tom Sure

Daria Sometime they make me sick

Trent Yeah, me too

Daria Common you can have any girl you want.

Trent I know but i'm tired of of dating just to have sex.

Daria Why?

Trent I'd like to do something else than making out with my girlfriends. It's frustrating, you try to talk to them but all they see in you is a talking vibrator. i'm not like that you know it.

Daria I know

Cut to the FC. They're at the drink table without their dates. There is a ice sculpture on the table.

Sandi How can she dare to wear the same dress as I?

Tiffany That's soooo bad.

Sandi I dunno she looks different than you in that (Sandi glares at her) Maybe not.

Quinn Don't worry, you look better than her and she's just a looser. let her be no one'll notice.

Sandi I did. That's enough. I'll make so no one else will.

She grabs the ice sculpture

Cut to Trent & Daria

Trent You know you look really good in that?

Daria (blushes)You're saying that just to be kind with me

Trent No. Really. I just never noticed that you were that beautiful

Daria (blushes harder) Thanks

(O/S SFX: Smash)

They turn to see from where it comes. Jane is laying down uncouncious. Sandi is still holds the ice sculpture. Tom looks schocked.(Wrath Within - Children of Bodom)

Trent What the fuck?

Daria Jane?

They run to her side Tom holds Trent back before he decks Sandi. Daria gets up and faces Sandi

Daria What the hell was that for?

Sandi I had to

Daria (looks like Jack Nicholson in the Shining, but worse) Cause she's got the same goddam dress than you? I always tought you were a little fucked up but that goes far beyond what i tought

Sandi (Faux-cool) The bitch had just to choose an other one.

Daria looks at her a moment then punches her in te face. Sandi falls down and Daria starts to kick her with her boots. De Martino comes to restrain her but she pushes him away and continues to kick at the girl. De Martino and Coach Gibson succes at restraining her

Daria (Yelling at the top of her lungs) Next time you call her bitch i'll kill you i swear it on my boots understood you goddam fuckin slut?

Trent takes her by the soulders

Trent (Whispering) calm down Daria, she's not worthy.

Later at the Hospital, Waiting room (One - Metallica)

Tom Why did that girl hat to snap like that?

Daria (Still enraged) cause she just a goddam brainless fashion nazi

Trent (senses Daria's wrath) Uh Tom i think you should get the Stang back.

Tom (Picks up) I should

Trent (tosses his keys to Tom) Here take my car, I would not ride in your wheeled junkmobile

Tom Ok. Anyway I would not have a ride in it. I'd slam the gas too hard and blow the carburetor. Later

Trent & Daria Later

Trent takes Daria's hand.

Trent Why are you so upset.

Daria Why? Cause my only friend lies in a freaking hospital bed and I cannot do anything about it.

Trent You could't have done anything. You can't watch every noe she does.

Daria I know that but i still feel guilty

Trent You don't have to. It was a stupid accident. Sad, but it happened. You know if Tom hadn't been there I would have kicket that girls ass to. You know how i feel about Janey. She sure can be a pain in the ass sometimes but she's still my sister. I'm glad to have her in my life. our other siblings never really cared for us. And the 'rents are never home anymore. She's the only family member I really relate to.

Daria I know. She's the one of the few who I really care of, her and you, and Tom in a certain way.

Trent Wanna come outside I have to take some air, that place creeps me out.

Daria Ok.

Ouside

Trent lights a cigarette

Daria Since when d'you smoke?

Trent I only smoke in stressful moments,and this is one. Want one

Daria I don't smoke (bt) what the hell if it can calm me

Trent Here

She lights up

Trent You know i'm glad you came into Janey's life. She was pretty lonely. Before she used to hang with us. I don't think that's so good.

Daria You're not that bad. And the guys are kinda funny. even if they can be dumb sometimes.

Trent Yeah I know, but i think sometimes I have a bad influence on her.

Daria Nah, you're a really nice person. A little Lazy maybe but nice. You're wise and you have the guts to hold on your ethics.

Trent You really think that?

Daria Yes. I think you're the kind of man every sensed woman would like to have in her live.

Trent You know i really like you? I like the way you can make me think, your wicked sense of humor and all that. And I love that smile of yours.

Daria (Blushing) don't say things you don't mean

Trent Read my lips, you're the coolest girl I know. You know when i said you were beautiful, i really meant it.

Daria (Blushing harder) Trent...

Trent (Cups her face with his hand) You know that girl I said I was in love with?

Daria (Feeling her heart sinking in her chest) yeah

Trent I'm holding her beautiful face right now

He kisses her lightly on the lips. She blushes beet red
