Scenario
Characters:
Rebekah Lawrence
Shannon Gigs
Lenny Morrison
Georgie Harris
Normon Waters
Lauren Potter
Professor Lewis
Scene One:
(Rebekah and Normon are sitting in their Film class at the University of Film of Florida. Professor Lewis is standing at the front of the classroom, talking about Film Projectors. Rebekah looks at Norman with a look of disgust.)
Rebekah:
Film Projectors? If we're using digital cameras, then it doesn't matter, does it? I mean, we have the computer programs for this......
Professor Lewis:
Ms. Lawrence, do you have a question or comment to share with the class? God knows you're full of them.
Rebekah:
No, Professor. I'm content.
Professor Lewis:
Good
(Professor Lewis turns around to the chalk board and Rebekah makes a face.)
Rebekah:
I really don't like this teacher. I mean, he's so old.... look at him. He's talking about Film Projectors and such, and we don't really use them anymore.
Norman:
Yeah, unless you're at home, watching some pointless, horribly filmed home movie.
Rebekah: (laughing)
Exactly.... that's what we have our lame parents for.
Professor Lewis:
They are also why you're here, Ms. Lawrence. You're parents paid for your tuition for this film school, so you should be a little thankful.
Girl One: (raising her hand)
But what if you had a scholarship?
Professor Lewis:
Then, in that case, I guess your parents don't matter. Unless you want financial independence. I don't see why, with today's teens attitudes, we still give out financial aid at our universities and colleges.
Rebekah:
Thank you for that glorious lecture, Professor, but it looks like it's time for the bell to-
(Rebekah is cut off by the bell)
Rebekah:
Ring.
(The class files out of the room. Here, we see Norman and Rebekah in the hallway.)
Rebekah:
Ugh, this teacher is such an asshole. I hate him. He makes me just want to kill.
Norman:
I know what you mean. I had a teacher like him in high school. He disappeared though. We don't know what happened to him. (shrugs) Oh well.
Rebekah:
Well, at least Christmas break is almost here. First, we have to make those lame mid-term movies. I still have to cast mine.
Norman:
Yeah. I love your script. The romantic comedy. Based on actual events?
Rebekah: (blandly)
Ha ha, Norman. It would seem that way, but no. I haven't had a boyfriend in a loooooong time.
Norman: (to himself)
I wouldn't have guessed.
Rebekah:
What?
Norman:
Nothing.
(They turn down another hallway, and they run into Lauren Potter.)
Rebekah:
Hey Lauren.
Lauren:
Hey Bekah. I can't stand Professor Jenkins' class anymore. She's such an eccentric bat!
Rebekah:
Norman and I were just discussing Professor Lewis's class. Ugh, he's so old, he was probably here when the school was built back in 1824.
Voice: (from behind them)
Ahem....
(They all turn around and Professor Lewis is standing behind them.)
Rebekah: (smiling cheesily)
Oh! Um, hello Professor Lewis. See you're leaving early today. Have a nice day.....
Professor Lewis:
Right, Ms. Lawrence. You and your friends seem to be enjoying yourselves. Hope you have fun this weekend casting your movies. (smiles) I'm going out of town this weekend, so I won't have time to grade your papers. Shannon, the student aid, is going to be doing that for me. Anyway, I also won't be getting any e-mails, I'll be camping..... so, enjoy your weekend, and be safe.
(Professor Lewis walks away.)
Rebekah: (sighs)
Shannon? Shannon? She hates me.... she's gonna fail me for sure. He's going camping? Camping? Who in their hundreds goes camping? Shouldn't he be afraid of bears or something?
Lauren:
Well, maybe if the bear comes in his tent, it won't eat him, cause he smells dead......
(All laugh)
