High school Cafeteria
(Farkle, Zay, Riley, Lucas, and Maya all sit at a lunch table eating.)
There is a long dead silence in the room.
Zay: So how about them tacos Maya?
Maya: I can't handle this we are usually the loudest lunch table, and now everyone's barely speaking.
Lucas: Well what do you suggest I say to the girl who just dumped me?
Maya: I don't know huckleberry whatever your little cowboy heart pleases, but if you don't start saying something I'm going to poor this milk carton over your head!
(Maya stands up and tilts milk carton over Lucas's head.)
Riley: Maya stop flirting with Lucas
Maya: Ooh Riley I am so not flirting with Huckleberry of all people.
Lucas: Besides why do you care if Maya flirts with me?
Riley: I don't!
Lucas: well good.
Maya: Could you two be any more boring?
Farkle: Hey guys I hate to break whatever this is up, but has anyone seen Smackle?
Maya: I saw her this morning, but I didn't notice her in history class.
Riley: maybe she went home.
Random Cheerleader 1: Are you talking about that poor pathetic girl we saw crying in the bathroom.
Random Cheerleader 2: yeah it was so totally tragic she stormed out and went home.
Random cheerleader 3: Yeah totes.
Maya: Thanks I guess. Now could you all scurry on back to the set of mean girls where you belong?
(The three cheerleaders flip their hair angrily and storm off.)
Zay: Ha! Good one Maya.
Farkle: I have to find out what could be wrong with Smackle I have to go find her.
(Farkle gets up but Riley pulls him back down.)
Riley: I care about Smackle too Farkle but our presentation on our chemistry project is worth fifty percent of our midterm you can't just miss it.
Farkle: But Riley Smackle needs me.
Riley: But so do I if I get a fifty on this project because you don't show up to present then I'll make a c for the semester, and it won't be good for you either. Are you really willing to risk hurting me, and your 4.0 GPA just to see what's wrong with Smackle?
Farkle: I just can't stand the idea of her hurting.
Riley: you can go find her as soon as chemistry class ends.
Farkle: You're right Riley. What would I do without you?
Maya: Oh get a room you two.
Zay: don't you remember Maya they already did last night.
Riley and Farkle: How many times do we have to tell you two nothing happened?
Zay: Fryer over here has been awfully quiet care to answer?
Lucas: To be honest I don't care to talk to either Riley or Farkle right now.
(Lucas throws away his lunch tray and storms off.)
Riley: Lucas wait.
Zay: You still think you made the right decision breaking up with him Riley?
Riley: I think so, but I still don't like seeing him upset.
(Riley begins to tear up Maya gets up and hugs Riley)
Maya: it's going to be okay sugarplum. He just needs time.
(Farkle hugs Riley too.)
Farkle: It's like your dad said sometimes things have to get worse before they can get better.
Riley: How is it that you always know what to say Farkle?
Farkle: Because I'm a genius.
