Monique glared at Trent and choked out "Yea, continue…"

Minister: "I think we'd better start again. Trent, repeat after me. I, Trent..."

Trent: I, Trent...

Minister: "Take thee...Mo-n-i-q-u-e…."

Monique silently mouthed "you dick" to Trent as he repeated after the minister: "Take thee, Monique."

Minister: "As my lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, till death parts us".

Cut to Jane/ Daria:

Jane to Daria: "looks like that might come any minute."

Trent: "As my lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health, until death parts us."

Minister: "May I have the rings?" (He is given the rings) "Monique, place this ring on Trent's finger as a symbol of your bond everlasting." Monique threw the ring on the ground and continued to glare at Trent.

Trent: "I'll uhh just put it on myself."

Minister: "Trent, place this ring on Monique's hand as a symbol of the love that encircles you forever." Monique stubbornly refused to give her hand as Trent reached for it.

Minister prodding; "Monique dear give Trent your hand."

Trent quickly jammed the ring onto Monique's raised middle finger that was directed at him.

Minister, much relieved the ceremony was finally ending: "Trent and Monique have um made their declarations and it gives me great pleasure I guess to declare them husband and wife."

Minister: "You may kiss the bride." As Trent hesitantly leaned in, Monique sucker punched him in the face and quickly fled down the aisle and into the house.

(The recessional starts as the wedding party awkwardly retreated into the house followed by a dejected looking Trent.)

Next scene: Casa lane front room- groups of people are milling around outside and inside the house. Members of the band and wedding party are gathered in groups talking about the wedding, huddle at the foot of the stairs while a screaming Monique and Trent can be heard from upstairs.

Monique: "Trent this is a complete nightmare! My friends and family are out there how could you do this to me? You embarrassed me in front of everyone! What were you thinking?!"

Trent: "I know, I know I really screwed this day up, but it didn't mean anything and I' m sorry, can't we just get past this?"

Monique:" This day meant a lot to me especially now with the baby. I should have known you would somehow screw things up cause that's what you always do; you're a screw up Trent and a loser and you'll always be a loser."

Cut to down stairs: more shouting can be heard from upstairs.

Clearly uncomfortable Tom spoke: "I think we should go Daria, we don't need to be here."
Jane: "Might as well this could go on for hours."

Daria looked upstairs and hesitantly answered:" Yea ok, um I'll call you later Jane. Could you tell Trent I" – Daria paused as she caught Tom's scathing look – "tell him umm congratulations."

They quickly exited as Jesse spoke next, "I'm going to go tell the guests, band and caterers to pack it in." As the group dispersed, Jane slowly walked up the stairs and sat down in the upstairs hallway continuing to listen to the yelling.

Trent: "I screwed up, but I'll fix this ok? We need to work things out especially if we got a kid coming."

Monique shouted a few obscenity's at Trent, and then came flying out of the room past Jane, down the stairs and out the front door. Soon all that could be heard was tires screeching out the driveway.

Trent soon emerged: "Hey Janey, I really messed this up…"

Jane stood up and quietly hugged her brother.

Four weeks later: The Zon. Mystic spiral are performing with a very intoxicated, unshaven and disheveled Trent who was singing off key and random songs. This scene is heavily inspired by the wedding singer, I make no money from this and it is just for fun.

Daria and Jane are observing the band and Trent's drunken antics from the front of the stage.

Jane: "How did you get Tom to come tonight? I mean especially after the wedding fiasco?"

Daria sighed: "He knew I was coming with you tonight and that I wouldn't relent on it, and we had another fight about me being around Trent. But I wouldn't give in to Tom's demands or threats about how upset he would be if I came. I said what I 've been saying in all our fights over Trent that he is my friend and and he needs me right now… and well Tom is here because...well…"

Jane: "To make sure nothing happens between you and Trent."

Jane stopped talking as Tom came over and slid his hand around Daria's waist, kissed her cheek and pulled her close like she was property and warily eyed Trent on stage.

Tom: "So has Trent found Monique yet?" he asked hopefully.

Jane:" Well, Monique's been in hiding since the wedding and her parents won't tell Trent where she's at. He's really worried she's using again and worried about the baby's health."

Loud wailing came from the stage as Trent drunkenly started singing' love stinks 'off key and stumbled around on stage.

Jane continued: "Trent's thinking to hire someone to track her down. He wants the baby and since her parents have filed the annulment papers he might not get custody when the baby is born."

Trent singing more loudly and more off key….

Trent: You love her,(points to tom then Daria)

And she loves that guy (points to Daria then tom)
You just can't win.
And so it goes until the day you die.
This thing they call love,
its gonna make you cry.

Love stinks!
But you know she might really love this guy right here! (Points to himself)

Trent jumped from the stage and got in Toms face: "I hate you!"

Tom threw the first punch at Trent's face.

End scene.

Next scene: Daria is working at Axl's tattoo parlor as a bookkeeper. Her office has a computer, desk, filing cabinets and plushy chairs one of which Jane is seated on. The entire office is filled with stuffed animals, candy and flowers.

Jane eyed the stuffed animals with disgust as Daria sighed heavily clearly embarrassed about the items.

Daria: "Since Trent has hired my mother's firm to represent him with the assault charges Toms filed they can now afford to hire Quinn the private tutor for homeschool."

Jane:" I can't believe he filed charges on Trent when he threw the first punch. Wait her rash isn't getting better I thought the doctor said she should be good by now?"

Daria: "Well the cream isn't working as fast as she liked so she roped my parents into her vanity and they agreed -well -couldn't take the whining anymore about public humiliation and decided on a homeschool tutor until it clears for good."

As Trent and axl walked into the office, Trent looked embarrassed and wouldn't meet Daria in the eye: "I wanted to um say sorry about uh the other night about hitting Tom."

Daria: " Trent I've tried explaining to Tom that it's a misunderstanding, hoping he would drop the charges and that you are going through stuff with Monique. He just won't listen, he thinks some things…ridiculous stuff and I can't seem to change his mind about it."

Trent: "I acted like an ass Daria, it's what I deserve. I'm sorry."

Axl cleared his throat (cockney accent): "Oye, luv do you have those files I was looking for earlier?"

Daria: "Yes, somewhere here on my desk…um just..um its' here somewhere …" her desk was buried with animals, several vases of flowers, large candy boxes.

Axl eyed Daria's desk:"uhh clean that stuff up, its unprofessional like and have that young gent of yours ease up on the gifts here, got it luv?"

As an irritated and embarrassed Daria shuffled several papers aside, found and handed axl his files, a stuffed animal fell to the floor and started to sing the theme song from titanic. Daria responded:" "I'll take care of it axl" and quickly grabbed it and shoved it into a drawer as he exited the room.

Trent: "Hey, Daria I was wondering if we could talk about-"but was cut off by a group of oddly dressed men entering the room up and approaching Daria.

Man: "Are you Daria Morgendorfer?"

Not responding, Daria stared at the man who was wearing an old fashion barbershop outfit and was now being joined by the rest of a barbershop quartet who started to sing in unison.

Quartet-"One…two…three...congratulations on your new job"

It won't be long before your top brass!

and you know who will be there to support you? Your one and only boyfriend thommmmasss!

who really didn't mean to act like and ass!

he promises no more dramas! From your loving supportive boyfriend Thomas!"

Daria cringed, while Jane laughed and Trent looked extremely disgusted.

End scene

Next scene: Morgendorfer home later that day.

Tom: Again I'm sorry! ok I thought you would like the singers it was an apology for the fight with Trent and well, all our fights lately. I care about you! I love you Daria, I don't see the problem with sending you gifts."

Daria: "If you want to apologize for the fight with Trent drop the charges against him, don't send me a singing group where I work! It's like you've pissed all over my workspace, yes I belong to you Tom and everyone knows it! Axl's customers are wondering what my boyfriend will do next; will it be another singing group and next time will they take requests!"

Tom:" I just feel like I don't have you around lately, you are always with Jane or working. It feels like we are just drifting apart."

Daria: "Yea, I have been over Jane's a lot more lately but Jane is going through some stuff right now like her break up with Robert and this stuff with Trent. But there's no reason to be jealous or think of Trent as a threat please for us just get past this jealousy and let's stop our fighting."

Tom: "It would be great to not have to deal with any more fights about Trent. So I think maybe what would help is if you stopped seeing Trent completely. End your friendship and save our relationship."

Daria ignored his ultimatum: "I've told you many times how much you mean to me, but I can't do this anymore if you can't get past this jealous thing; and it seems you can't so I think we need a break."

Tom looked like someone had ripped out his heart: "So you made your choice and it's not me, I get it and I'm out of here. Bye Daria." Tom walked out the door and slammed it behind him.

End scene.

Next scene: lanes kitchen.

Daria, speaking in between bites of pizza: "So then we had this huge stupid fight and I said I wanted a break. I just didn't know how to stop him from going on about me and Trent for the hundredth time! I was frustrated and then somehow we broke up-" Daria's cellphone rang interrupting her while Jane continued eating her slice.

Daria: "hi, um tom I don't-"

Tom: "I've been thinking this is crazy, this fight, don't you think? I love you; we can work on this right?"

Daria: (hopeful) "I want to work things out I-" but was interrupted by a coughing hacking Trent who had just walked into the kitchen.

Trent: "Hey, Janey, hey Daria, did you remember to get wings?"

Tom: "Where are you?! Who was that! Are you with Trent?"

Daria moved quickly away from Trent and out of coughing range; "Well I'm with Jane and Trent, so it's not like um what you think-" gets cut off by dial tone as a sad Daria and a helpless Jane watch Trent chow down on his chicken wings in the lane kitchen.

Cut to club scene later that night: Tom has met Tori Jerico, Lawndale highs biggest gossip; both are dancing very close when a very drunk Tom starts to make out with tori.

Tom's morning: Friday morning. Sloan home/ tom's bedroom.

Tom slowly woke up and felt strange as soon as he moved, he felt the hangover hit but that wasn't surprising with what he drank last night. No what surprised him was the tiny blond next to him sleeping; fully realizing what he did not help with his hangover: "oh shit…"

As Tom padded to the bathroom to look for aspirin, tori woke and realized she was late for first day of classes.

Tori: "I'm so late! God if Ms. Li catches me she will give some horrible punishment I swear only Lawndale high blah blah…"

Tom had stopped listening at this point as he sat on the bed and held his pounding head. He pushed the answering machine to hear his messages mostly to get it to stop the annoying red blinking.

Daria on machine: "I've been trying to reach you all night where are you? I feel awful, please tom you have to know there is nothing between me and Trent and this whole break up/ fight is stupid. I want to be with you. I'm sorry I made you feel like you were not a priority. We should talk about things. I love you and I'm going to bed now but I'll stop by tomorrow around 8:30 before classes start, ok bye."

Tom choked on his water as he looked at the time, 8:20 and he still had Tori in the house.

Five minutes later he was trying to drag her towards the back door.

Tom: "Yea you should get going. Didn't you say you were late or something ?"

Tori: "What's the rush? I'm already late maybe I should just skip out on the entire day at school. Hey you wanna hang out or something? I mean Lawndale high will still be there tomorrow."

Tom not really listening opened the back door and saw Daria walking up the path and hurriedly threw tori behind the door.

Tom smiled nervously as he greeted Daria: "Hi, wow you are exactly on time! That's just so great."

Daria: "I didn't want to wake up anybody by coming from the front door and I know this door is always unlocked so I thought I would just sneak in, hope you don't mind. So where were you last night?"

Tom stuttering: "I just- I was well, I didn't um - I was out on my boat, you know to think. Um anyway, were you serious on your message about us talking things over?"

Daria: "I want to work things out, as long as you do too?"

Tom smiled and pulled Daria in for a warm hug: "I love you Daria that's exactly what I want." Tori who was still behind the door gave Tom a thumbs up sign from behind the door which made him hug Daria even tighter.

After Daria had left for school, Tom allowed Tori to leave when Daria's car was out of sight. Tom knew he was lucky to get Daria back, and lucky that she hadn't caught him in bed with tori. He didn't have to worry about it anyway because as far as he knew Daria and tori didn't know each other, or go to the same school. Tori had told him last night she had transferred to an all-girls prep school for her junior year but something happened… what was that something she said? It was then that something clicked in Tom's brain; Tori also said she transferred back this year… to Lawndale high.

Lawndale! Shit! Throughout Thought Tom as he hurried to dress and to head to Lawndale to track down Tori…

After tracking down Tori, and talking to many, many students later a frustrated Tom was worried when he could not track down Daria. Meanwhile….

Jane's morning: Friday morning. Casa lane driveway. 8:40 am. A sleepy Jane, Trent, jesse, max, nick are all packing and loading food/ luggage/ equipment into three white vans preparing for their weekend gig out of town.- meanwhile….

Daria's morning: Friday morning. 9:00 am Lawndale high.

Throughout the morning, Daria had been receiving many strange stares, whispers and pointing and didn't understand it until she started to hear rumors about tori Jericho and a tom Sloan hooking up through the school gossip trail:

Tori told fashion clubber Sandi who told Brittney Taylor who told her boyfriend Kevin who actually remembered correctly all the gossip about Daria's boyfriend; and when he told Mack he was overheard by man hating Ms. Barch who then tracked down Daria and suggested Daria pull a Bobbitt on her scum sucking cheater of a boyfriend.

The rest of Tom's morning….

Tom spent all morning driving by Daria's house, the park, the quarry, the strawberry, calling Jane's house several times with no luck. Frustrated by three pm, Tom decided to wait for Daria at her house and noticed three white vans parked outside as he pulled up to park.

Jane answered the door surprising Tom: " Is Daria here? I really have to talk to her, is she upstairs?"

Jane: "She's still at school," (letting tom inside) "Me and the band are just waiting to see if she wanted to come with us this weekend."

Tom: "She's not at school, she's not anywhere! She won't answer her phone and I can't find her dammit! I'm really worried Jane."

Jane: "Ok, ok calm down what's wrong; and why isn't she at school? Where else would she be?"

At that same moment Daria walked in, took in Tom's guilty face and knew the rumors were true.

Tom: "Daria I'm so sorry-"

Daria grabbed a heavy volume of Kafka's works off the nearest shelf and started beating Tom nonstop with it.

Jane really confused ran to the kitchen to get Jessi and Trent to either help somehow or just to watch the drama unfold. Jane: "Daria what's wrong? What happened?"

Daria ignored Jane's question and was still hitting tom: " Just! (Wham!) Leave! (Wham! Wham!) Now!" Daria dropped the book and collapsed at the foot of the stairs crying.

Tom: "Daria I'm so sorry please I love you! Let's work this out somehow. Please just talk to me."

Daria: "Just leave. Now. Please Tom just leave, just go… I hate you too much right to talk."

At this Trent pulled a reluctant Jane and Jesse out of the room and back into the kitchen.

Living room- Daria: "Just leave tom, I don't want you here!"

Tom: "No, we need to talk about this! It was a dumb drunken mistake, and it didn't mean anything! I made a mistake ok I know that please Daria let's talk."

Daria: "A mistake! You had sex with tori! You screwed the biggest gossip in my school and you didn't think I'd find out? Just leave now it's over we are done."

Tom: "No, I wanna work this out, I love you, and I wanna talk about this! Look, I'm disgusted with myself ? Daria she meant nothing to me."

Daria: "And yet she was worth messing up our relationship!"

Tom: "Wait you dumped me remember so what relationship? As far as I knew we were over, I thought we were done and that our relationship was dead!"

Daria: "Well you sure had a hell of a time at the wake you didn't you Tom!"

Tom: "Hey I was angry and heartbroken, and you ripped my heart out when you dumped me. Oh this is all Trent's fault, you do realize that right? None of this would have happened if I didn't think at the same moment I was with tori that you and Trent weren't having sex."

Kitchen- Trent's jaw dropped and he looked at Jane in confusion: "What do I have to do with this?"

Living room- Daria: "All right Tom, and if I did have sex with Trent would you have been able to forgive me?"

Struggling to get out an answer but also needing to win the argument, Tom muttered: "Yea sure, complete forgiveness."

Kitchen- Jane: "Well Trent, umm Tom and Daria have been fighting a lot since you said Daria's name at your wedding. Tom thinks you're in love with Daria which I would say is a pretty safe bet…well anyway you have been the cause of many of their fights."

Living room-Daria: "So you would be ok with me and Trent being naked with each other; with me kissing Trent all over his body and with Trent being inside me… you would be fine with Trent's sweaty body being on top of me and inside me and just screwing the hell out of-"

Tom yelling cutting Daria off: "Stop Daria! Dammit please stop, god no I would hate it ok. I hate the idea of Trent being anywhere near you! It would drive me crazy to think of you and him like that."

Kitchen- Jane: "I have to ask, do you have real feelings for Daria, Trent?"

Living room-Daria is near the front door and it looks like she is about to leave.

Tom: "Okay yea I admit it I would be devastated but I would still want to be with you because it's you. I love you. I can't lose you I mean this this was a fluke I don't cheat. I'm not that guy can you imagine me in any other scenario cheating on someone? I was drunk, it was a mistake! Please Daria say something."

Kitchen-Trent: "Jane you should stay here and be around for Daria ok? I need to just go I can't be here right now." Trent and the guys quickly exit through the kitchen door.

Living room-

Tom: "Tell me what you're thinking right now, say something, anything."

Daria: "We're done."

End scene.
