Episode 9- The Event

Seth and Marissa are in Seth's room hanging out before school.

Se: Don't you love Newport Charity events?

Seth asks sarcastically.

Ma: Oh yeah, I can't think of a better way to spend my time.

Se: I can, the dentists office.

Seth says sarcastically. Marissa nods.

Se: Then again, at least after a dentist's appointment you get a lollipop, all you get after Newport charity events is a sharp pain in your head...

Seth puts on his shoes.

Ma: Who are you inviting?

Seth looks at Marissa.

Se: Summer of course. You and I both know how whipped I am...

Marissa nods. There's a pause.

Ma: What about Alex?

Marissa asks. Seth looks at Marissa confused.

Se: What about her?

Ma: Well you have been hanging out with her at the Bait Shop every day during your free period...

Marissa points out.

Se: We're just friends.

Ma: Yeah... okay.

Marissa says unbelieving. Seth looks at Marissa.

Se: Seriously, I'm not Alex's type.

Seth insists.

Ma: You mean she doesn't have a thing for the geeky and sarcastic?

Seth looks at Marissa.

Se: Let's put it this way... you are more her type.

Seth hints. Marissa looks at Seth confused.

Ma: Hot and sarcastic?

Se: You have breasts.

Seth says bluntly. Marissa understands.

Ma: Ahhh, I got it now.

Se: God, I thought I was going to have to draw you a picture.

Marissa looks at Seth. There's a pause.

Ma: Are you sure?

Se: Yeah, I'm sure. No penis for her...

Marissa looks at Seth disgusted.

Ma: Ah god Seth, was that necessary?

Seth smiles and nods.

Se: Yes it was.

Marissa smiles. There's a pause.

Ma: Maybe I should meet Alex.

Seth looks at Marissa.

Se: What?

Ma: Yeah, I mean I missed her at the funeral, and I think I should meet her.

Marissa raises her eyebrows. Seth looks at Marissa.

Se: Please don't tease.

Ma: Is she hot?

Marissa teases. Seth looks at Marissa.

Se: Marissa no, I will not have this conversation with you.

Marissa laughs.

Se: Actually, it would be kind of hot.

Seth admits. Marissa stares at Seth. She hits him with a pillow. Seth laughs.

Ma: Since when can't you take a joke?

Marissa asks. Seth shrugs.

Se: I can always take a joke…but actually I think I'm better at giving them if you ask me.

Ma: Okay, Mr. Humble.

Marissa jokes.

Se: Hey, Someone should believe in me, why not me?

Seth asks. Marissa looks at Seth.

Ma: Oh, poor baby.

Marissa says with a fake pouting face. Seth stares at Marissa.

Ma: I'm inviting Ryan, so we can all hangout, it'll be great.

Seth looks at Marissa skeptically.

Se: If you say so...

Marissa grabs her coat.

Ma: Come on, we have to get to school.

Marissa grabs Seth's hand and pulls him off the bed. They leave Seth's room.
