"And nothing says 'help' like a horrific car crash," you tell your sister and Jodie.
"It's what Pollock would've wanted," says Jane. "Help, I mean."
"At least the blood would form a Pollock painting."
Quinn would complain more but it turns out the rest of your school think the decorations are "cool". Jodie sees the funny side in the end. With your work done, you and Jane veg out watching the dancers (Quinn's making a circuit of all the guys).

Brett and you keep talking and Cumberland High seems to be full of just as many interesting idiots as Lawndale. There's even a dance party there next week, a 'school pride' event that Brett and Brad plan to "do an elaborate tribute to Carrie" at.
Weeee-eeell...

IF YOU THINK THIS SOUNDS LIKE A BAD IDEA, GO TO 38
