Act I, Scene III:

Katherina stormed in like a hurricane as she stopped in front of Romeo, who was sulking behind her dumpster and shouted, "What are you doing behind my dumpster?"

"This is my dumpster," Romeo retorted proudly.

"My name's on it!"

"Hey, Katie can be your lover?" Mercutio mused.

"It's Kate, not Kate-ie!" She then kicked Romeo aside who squeaked as she pointed out that her name really was on the dumpster.

"See, it's my dumpster! Mine!"

Mercutio smiled, stepping on Romeo to talk to her as he explained, "I'm sorry Kate-ie but my stupid friend Romeo is illiterate." He pointed to the graffiti, "He can't even spell."

"Well, I guess it's not your fault you're an idiot! Just don't let it happen again!"

Mercutio wrapped an arm around Kate's shoulder as he said, "But you see since Romeo is stupid it will happen again."

"Kitty!" Petruchio cried waving his hand as he ran toward her, stepping on Romeo, who flinched. "I was looking everywhere for you."

"Oh, so he can call you Kitty but I can't call you Katie?" Mercutio questioned, teasingly.

"You call my Kitty Katie?" Petruchio asked surprised.

"You call my Katie Kitty," Mercutio answered.

"I. Am. Kate!" Kate shouted stomping her foot ready to kick both of them.

"See, Katie is my girlfriend," Mercutio said.

"I am not!" she shouted.

Mercutio then shouted at the top of his lungs so everyone in the school can hear, "Katie is my girlfriend! This Katie! Right here!"

Petruchio then smiled and shouted, "But you see Kitty is my girlfriend! She cannot be dating you for she is dating me, for she is my shrew! Unless you are calling Kitty a whore!"

Bianca turned as she stated, "But I'm the whore sister."

Romeo mumbled as he cried, "My sweet Rosaline…how I long for you."

Mercutio grinned as he kicked Romeo and said, "I forgot you were there old buddy." He picked Romeo up and threw him over his shoulder as he stated, "Katie I shall win your heart! For you are a bitch, and I like bitches."

"Yes, and I too like you for being a bitch," Petruchio said, patting Kate on the head. "Do not worry my shrew, I shall stop Mercutio." He then walked past Mercutio who was slowed down by Romeo's weight and taped a piece of paper that read, Kick me I'm a loser, on his back.

Kate frowned, narrowing her eyes as the anger boiled inside. She then picked up the dumpster and threw it, hitting Puck. He was crushed under the dumpster, his feet stuck out and then curled up and dissolved, his shoes the only things to remain. Christopher Sly whistled as he casually walked over and picked up the shoes, scurrying away.
