(The next day after School Reggie heads out to the soccer field just like
she said she would. She came a little late but she was still there. She
watched from the side as Lars scored goal after goal he was really the best
player on the team, in fact, he was the team. The coach called a five-
minute break and then told the team to take a lap. While he talked to Lars
and two other players about the plays, they should have for the games on
Saturday. Then the coach called for a huddle Lars listened and then walked
over to his position passing Reggie, he pauses finally noticing her)
Lars: I didn't think you'd show
Reggie: I told you I would
Lars: Well you didn't have to no one ever comes to see me play
Reggie: no one what about your parents
Lars: to busy
Reggie: your brother
Lars: right my brother
Reggie: Your friends
Lars: They think soccer is lame because it's not on wheels or a board
Reggie: Well I think you play very well you're so awesome
Lars: Thanks (He says looking away embarrassed) we only running this last
play then we'll get started ok
Reggie: sure Lars
Lars: Ok later wife (he runs on to the field and they run the play Lars
passes to this guy and he trips over the ball Lars rolls his eyes and
recovers the ball scoring)
Coach: That was awesome Lars way to recover ok that's a day hit the locker
rooms boys. (He walks over to Lars) you wouldn't miss Saturday will you.
With you on the team, we'd make it to state
Lars: No way
Coach: that's great. Remember we're counting on you Lars
Lars: yeah whatever (he heads over to Reggie) lets go
Reggie: the Pressures on
Lars: oh that I can deal with it so what event are we practicing
Reggie: well Otto helps me with swimming, and Twister helps me with biking
Lars: So I have running well let's start
Reggie: Sam always rides on the tourist bus and I run behind
Lars: ha that's good Reggie. I have a better idea we have to run together
Reggie: together
Lars: (Starts running) yeah now hurry up
Reggie: I'm coming (She catches up to him and then keeps going in front of
him) I'm beating you
Lars: Reggie we're going to run to the end of Ocean Shores and back twice
so don't go so fast
Reggie: Lars I want to win
Lars: Reg you need to tone
Reggie: huh?
Lars: You want to be in the best shape possible when you race and running
faster doesn't help it just tries you out but you do what you want
Reggie: fine but can you go a little faster
Lars: Yeah
(At the Shack a while later)
Otto: Where's Reg we should be training
Twister: Not sure but all the JR. High kids seem to be hanging out with
their pretend spouses
Otto: Reggie hanging with Lars? Yeah right not unless she has to
Twister: But dude she does
(Sam and Trish walk in)
Sam: Trish that's not fair I made the money and you want to spend it on a
trip to Sherry's
Trish: I miss her
Sam: you saw her five minutes ago
Trish: You never do what I want
Sam: Fine but no Monkey
Trish: Thanks Sammie, now about the boat
Sam: What boat?
Trish: The one I brought
Sam: Trish, we're supposed to discuss these things!
Trish: Okay Mr. Drum set
Sam: I said I was sorry
Trish: Well I'm not
Sam: Trish!
Trish: Sam (She glares and Sam backs up)
Twister: This is good (He laughs)
Otto: Yeah just so long as we don't have to live it
Sherry: (And Trent come in) I should have listened to my mother and waited
before getting married
Trent: Well I'm not thrilled either
Sherry: Sam would be a better husband then you
Trent: I'm so sure
Sherry: Anyone would
Twister: My brother?
Sherry: Well no, I'm so glad I'm not Reggie
Trish: Same here, think about the trouble we're having she must be dying
Sam: Yeah we're so better off
Twister: You'd be surprised (He had been in the house last week when Reggie
and Lars would work on the project he didn't see any problems)
Otto: Yeah Reggie can handle that dork
(Lars runs in)
Trish: Speaking of which just watch Otto you'll eat your words
Lars: Hurry up Reg
(Reggie drags in)
Reggie: Can't Go any further
Lars: You don't have to we're here
Reggie: (Sits at a table) I'll feel this tomorrow
Lars: Sorry I was so tough
Reggie: It's cool; I just can't move a finger
Lars: That's why I'm here I think husband equals personal slave, even a
pretend one
Reggie: Okay, personal slave, get me a soda, with a Hawaiian burger and
fries
Lars: Do you really think that will help you win what you need is a salad
with water and...
Reggie: Fries
Lars: Fine fries (he walks to the counter) Mr. Rocket Reggie says she wants
a salad, fries, and water
Ray: Reggie wants a s-s-s-Salad?!
Lars: She does
Tito: One salad coming pronto
Ray: And you?
Lars: I have no money on me
Ray: you're with Reggie so you eat free
Lars: Serious!
Otto: No, Dad that's Lars
Lars: I'll just have water then
Ray: Don't listen to Otto, besides we owe you from dinner
Lars: Then I'll have the same no fries (He turns around to wait. Everyone
is gawking at him) What? (He looks toward Twister)
Twister: Are you and Reggie getting along?
Lars: Sure I guess
Twister: Are you friends?
Lars: Uh I don't know Twister who cares
Otto: I do she's my sister!
Lars: Yeah I know
Twister: Well you aren't our friend
Lars: So, that means that I can't be nice to the person that I happened to
be paired with?
Otto: Is nice even part of your vocabulary
Lars: I could be mean if that's what you want?
Otto: Just lay off Lars she's not your friend this is only pretend. It's
just a grade
Lars: Grades are important
Otto: Leave her alone or I'll ruin your rep
(Reggie walks over)
Reggie: Are they giving you a hard time
Lars: Reggie I uh...have to g-go I'll see you uh...later, I think (He leaves)
Reggie: What did you do? (Reggie asks Otto)
Otto: I saved you
Reggie: Lars didn't do anything
Otto: Reg he's Lars he does everything
Reggie: Otto you're judging based on what the few times you've talked to
him oh wait you've never talked to him
Otto: Reg I understand you have this assignment, but Lars is a blackmailer,
he's deceitful, he's evil. You can't have fun with him
Reggie: That's not fair
Otto: If you're friend with him forget the ice hockey team this year. I'll
get Trent to play
Reggie: Otto that's not fair
Otto: Do I hear and echo? Take it or leave it come on Twist you too Sam
(He and Twister leave)
Sam: Saved! (He runs out)
Trish: Samuel Dullard get back here right now Urggh (She chases after them)
Sherry: Trish (She follows)
Trent: Urggh not again (he goes)
(Reggie sits at the counter)
Reggie: Otto's never fair
Ray: Reggie I see what's happening but this is really your fight. I'm not
getting involved. I know you can handle Otto and Twist.
Reggie: Yeah (She leaves)
(Reggie walks home but before she gets there she sees Lars pacing his yard
she goes over)
Reggie: You ok?
Lars: I had fun
Reggie: Fun?
Lars: You know hanging out you and me. Reg did you?
Reggie: Yeah
Lars: Then what's your brother's problem he doesn't think we can have fun
Reggie: We can't hang out anymore not unless it's for the assignment
Lars: That's crazy Reg; you've made it on my potential friend list
Reggie: List? Is that good?
Lars: Never mind it's just something I do. Sometimes I think Pi and Sputz
aren't very good friends, but you are, wife. I have fun with you, we talk,
and well that's more then I ever had with those two
Reggie: SO what I could be your friend
Lars: (nods) Reggie I like hanging with you so don't stop hanging out with
me cause of Otto
Reggie: I don't know (She wants to be his friends but she wants on the
hockey team)
Lars: Fine I get the hint; forget I said it (He leaves)
(The next day on the way to school Reggie and Sam walk alone)
Sam: Lars and you are good for each other
Reggie: Sam do you think Lars could be my friend?
Sam: Lars a friend?
Reggie: Sam he's cool to hang with, he listens to me, he makes me laugh,
Sam I think of him as a friend, but Otto oh...
Sam: Reg Otto's stubborn; if you think Lars is cool ignore Otto. He can't
live without you.
Reggie: Do you think?
Sam: Yup, just because you're friends with Otto doesn't mean you can't be
friends with anyone else you want including Lars.
Reggie: Thanks Sam
(After school Reggie heads over to the soccer field to watch the practice.
Lars again is amazing scoring nearly all the goals he is the best on the
team; after practice Lars runs over to Reggie)
Reggie: That was so awesome
Lars: (Looks suspicious) what are you doing here wife?
Reggie: I came to watch you practice. Will you help with the swimming part
of the triathlon? You're a better coach then Otto (She pleads)
Lars: (Thinks carefully before answering) Of Course, but what about
running?
Reggie: I have to train for all the races
Lars: Ok race you to the beach
Reggie: You're on (They race to the beach. Then Reggie and Lars spend 3
hours swimming in the Ocean. After Lars offers to walk her home) can you
carry me back?
Lars: very funny
Reggie: I'm serious. I'm exhausted.
Lars: Good
Reggie: Will you help me with biking tomorrow?
Lars: For you anything
Reggie Wow
Lars: What?
Reggie: I never thought you could be nice
Lars: Well I never thought we could get along but we have so much in common
it's scary
Reggie: After the assignment is over we can still hang out and stuff
Lars: I'd like that
Reggie: Cool well later (She goes in her house)
Otto: Where were you?
Reggie: Oh training
Otto: By yourself
Reggie: You weren't there; beside I don't need your help
Otto: But Reg we always train together
Reggie: Not this time I'm calling Twister and bailing
Otto: You sure?
Reggie: Sure I am you can just go back to having fun
Otto: Okay cool Reg. I'll call Twist for you (He grabs the phone Reggie
goes upstairs) Hey Twist
Twister: What's up?
Otto: Reggie says we're off the hook for training
Twister: Really that's cool
Otto: No, its weird we have to follow her tomorrow
Twister: Oh my Shoes!
Otto: Shoes?
Twister: Lars is whistling I think something is wrong
Otto: Whistling?
Twister: Close to you that's just weird
Otto: What?
Twister: The song close to you
Otto: What's that?
Twister: Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near; just like me
they want to be close to you Just like me they long to be,
Close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky?
When you walk by
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Otto: Okay, Twister stop something's up you follow your brother tomorrow I
have my sister
Twister: No way, you follow my brother I'll get my sister
Otto: You're sister?
Twister: Reggie's my pretend sister
Otto: Twister!
(The next day right after school Twister followed behind Reggie to the
soccer field where she of course was waiting for Lars to finish up.
Twister was getting bored just watching Reg so he sort of watched the
soccer game from under the bleachers when someone puts a hand on his
Shoulder)
Twister: Ahh! Oh Otto it's just you (He sighs)
Otto: Twister what are you doing here your suppose to be following my
sister
Twister: I am she's right over there I just stopped to watch Lars play I
never knew he was good at soccer
Otto: Reggie's here (He looks over) I told her
Twister: Chill Otto I think they're just getting the hours they have to
spend over with
Otto: Well why isn't she training
Twister: Because she doing H-h-h I can't say it
Otto: Homework (Twister shutters) alright well lets see what they do next
(They wait for fifteen more minutes the coach called practiced and Lars
headed over to Reggie)
Twister: I can't hear what they're saying
Otto: Then get closer
Twister: No way, if Lars sees me I'm burnt toast you go
Otto: Look (he points as three of the other players on the team sneak up
behind Lars with a cooler full of water to pour on him)
Twister: Oh man there so dead (They pour the water all over Lars. Who
clenches his fists and turns around very angry)
Lars: What are you Kooks trying to pull (He yells so Twister and Otto can
hear)
Guy 1: Lars buddy we were just having fun you know like pouring water on
our captain
Lars: Fun you think getting me all wet is fun, I pour water on my brother
for fun but no one ever pours water on me
Guy 2: Okay, okay chill it wouldn't happen again
Lars: No I'll make sure of that (He grabs one of the guys by the shirt and
is ready to womp)
Reggie: Lars lets go
Lars: Go (He looks over surprised he had forgotten she was there)
Reggie: Yeah I need to train and these lame-Os are just slow us down
Lars: (Drops the guy) Alright let's get out of here (He and Reggie head
towards the bike racks)
(To Twister and Otto who follow at a distance)
Twister: I c-cannot believe that once Lars has you in his clutches he
doesn't let go until your black and blue but Reggie got him to stop with
out even a blow to the head
Otto: I know Twister I know I told you something was up
Twister: You told me, right. You didn't even know what 'close to me' was.
Otto: Shh (He says pulling Twister into the bushes as Reggie and Lars ride
by) lets go (They follow behind on their skateboards)
Lars: (From in front of the guys) I can't believe them I'm soaked
Reggie: Calm down, Lars. It was water; you'll dry
Lars: Reggie I have a rep nobody gets away with these things I could womp
someone right now I'm so mad (He clenches the handles of his bike)
Reggie: Lars come on enough talk lets train
Lars: Alright, but I have to warn you bikes are my specialty (He rides
circles around Reggie's bike)
Reggie: Cut that out your going to make me crash
Lars: Reggie I'm not going to make you do anything only you can do that
Reggie: well you're in my way
Lars: Like this (He passes her so close she swerves)
Reggie: Lars you not trying to womp me because of that guy
Lars: No (He looks behind them and sees nothing but he had this weird
feeling something was following them) Let's go faster
Reggie: What happened to tone?
Lars: Tone faster wife lets go
Reggie: Where
Lars: The California Incline we're going to go up it
Reggie: What!
Lars: think Reg that's the steepest hill if you make that you'll make
anything
Reggie: Whatever you say coach
Lars: (glances back again but there was nothing who ever was there was good
but he knew he, she, it was out there) come on lets go (He speeds up and
Reggie follows then quickly turns onto the incline) ready
Reggie: (Looks up it) I guess you know Twister never made me do this
Lars: Did you win with Twister?
Reggie: No okay, I'm ready (They begin up the incline Twister, and Otto
come out from behind a newsstand)
Twister: She would have won last year
Otto: Come on let's follow them
Twister: No Otto, Lars knows we're here. If he sees us, we're dead
Otto: Then he wouldn't see us let's go they're getting away (He speeds
after)
Twister: Do we have to go up the incline? (He asks but Otto doesn't
answer) I'm coming
(Reggie and Lars made it up but not without Lars looking back about 10
times every minute)
Reggie: What's wrong with you? (Lars looks up as they turn off the incline
towards the right)
Lars: Some one is following us Reg I know it
Reggie: What you sense it
Lars: No Reg I hear them they're on skateboards but every time I turn
around, there is no one there
Reggie: (Looks back and then looks in front of her) better get your ears
checked
Lars: I'm not kidding Shhh, listen
Reggie: (listens) I don't hear it
Lars: I do ride faster Reg we'll lose them
Reggie: Whatever (She peddles faster although she's tired from the ride up
she's not sure why but she believes him after about five minutes of
peddling fast and not talking she begins to slow)
Lars: Reg follow me (He turns into an alley and stops she follows as he
turns to look back at the road) Shhh
(Twister and Otto skate by looking very confused. How can two people just
disappear?)
Lars: I knew it only Twister is that good
Reggie: Why were they following us?
Lars: Not us you and because your not suppose to be with me
Reggie: Oh man
Lars: I'll womp them for you
Reggie: No thanks Lars I can handle those two. How come I didn't hear
them?
Lars: Twister's practiced he follows me all the time well not anymore but
he use to
Reggie: That's cause he loves his big brother. (Reggie says making the
loves and big brother in a baby voice)
Lars: You have the wrong brother Reg. Come on lets go before they decided
to come back (He heads out going the opposite way)
(To Twister and Otto who have stopped three blocks away)
Twister: I told you he knew now we lost him and I'll probably be paying for
this tonight bro
Otto: Well this stinks on ice I told Reggie she couldn't hang out with that
dude
Twister: Chill Otto it wouldn't last they have to hang out it's the rules
and there's two things I know about Lars never get on his bad side and he
takes school way too seriously like it actually matters in real life
Otto: so he's like Sam, he's (Otto looks around) a nerd?
Twister: No, Lars isn't a nerd, and don't let people hear you say that
Otto. He's just smart okay
Otto: Okay well if you're sure it's just because he's a nerd then I guess
it's alright
Twister: That's good because I don't think Trent is as good of a hockey
player as Reggie
Otto: I wasn't really going to replace her I just said that so she'd stay
away from Lars
Twister: Oh did it work?
Otto: Does it look that way
Twister: I don't know hey let's skate down the incline (He heads back)
Otto: You're so on
(The next day Lars had just finished practicing)
Reggie: two days until the competition
Lars: Yeah I know so today we'll work on everything and then have practice
race tomorrow you'll chill so Saturday you'll be rested for the race
Reggie: Sounds good so, what first coach
Lars: keep up (He begins to run and Reggie follows they practice all day
until it gets darker and then they continue they were having such a good
time they didn't realizes that it was nearly 11 O'clock and tomorrow they
had school)
Reggie: I think I'm going to do it I'm really going to do this
Lars: I think you are too. You're good at these events
Reggie: Thanks to you
Lars: No it's all you I just helped.
Reggie: well I'm sticking to my story all right coach
Lars: Please Reg I can't let it get around that I helped you out
Reggie: Oh (She looks away) I understand so I guess you wouldn't be there
to see me win
Lars: Reg I have a soccer game if I'm not there we'll never make it to the
state tournament next weekend
Reggie: What does it matter if no one is there to watch you win?
Lars: (Tries not to look hurt by this comment) it matters to me. (He says
sounded hurt then he add defensively) I don't do things for other people I
do it for me.
Reggie: Yeah well what did you gain from helping me?
Lars: A grade Reggie that's it just a grade
Reggie: That's what I am to you a grade what happen to you having fun with
me
Lars: with you, ha you're a Rocket last time I checked we were still rivals
Reggie: So you made all that up for a grade
Lars: (Still on his defense says with out thinking) Clever huh?
Reggie: And to think that I believed you (She says with tears in her eyes
she walks away)
Lars: Urggh, Reg, oh man Lars you really blew it this time (He says heading
home which is in away following her) Later (He says as he head towards his
house she shrugs and goes in her house)
Reggie: That liar Otto was right I bet he lied about everything I bet he
doesn't remember my Mother and I bet he has been to my house
Ray: Reggie (He walks in) You just getting home
Reggie: Sorry I was training and lost track of time
Ray: well okay but you better get some sleep sweet heart
Reggie: I will night Dad (She heads upstairs)
(At Twister's house)
Lars: (Is in his room he kicks the wall that is between Twister and his
room) I can't believe I said that
(Twister comes in sleepy)
Twister: Would you mind kicking that wall
Lars: I'll kick your head if you don't leave
Twister: Sheesh Lars I'm trying to sleep what's your problem
Lars: Nothing now leave
Twister: Leaving (He heads out)
Lars: Urggh I have to talk to some one but who (he picks up his phone) who
would understand (he dials a number without thinking about who it is he was
calling he puts the phone to his ear)
Girl: hello
Lars: Hey
Girl: Lars?
Lars: Yeah can I talk to you Clio
Clio: Well I guess but it isn't like you
Lars: Shhh I know that but I need to talk to some one
Clio: Well about what
Lars: I...I...I... never mind (He hangs up) I can't even talk to my cousin I'll
just have to figure this out on my own
(The next day on the way to school)
Sam: That doesn't seem like the Lars you talked about a few days ago
Reggie: It isn't it's a jerk
Sam: So the marriage boat is beginning to rock (Reggie glares) Okay look
I've put together from what Twister's said Lars is really emotionally,
angry, mad, sad, and happy. He'll take it to the limit and take it out on
who ever is nearest so maybe it wasn't you maybe it was just something you
said.
Reggie: You think it was defense?
Sam: maybe you know whom he hangs with, maybe you just were joking but he
took it seriously
Reggie: Maybe that makes me feel better Sam so how's Trish
Sam: She's scary, exhausting, and not anything like a girl I'd like but
we're cool I guess
Trish: Sammie (She runs over) today after school we have to get our
shopping thing in so I planned to meet up with Sherry and we can all do it
together
Sam: Did I mention that Sherry and Trish are attached at the hip
Reggie: Can I come
Trish: With (She looks around and whispers) Lars?
Reggie: Well yeah
Trish: No way Reg
Sam: Sorry Reg but Lars isn't one of us I mean you might like him but we
don't
Reggie: I understand I guess (She sighs)
(Sherry walks up Trent comes up behind)
Sherry: Okay did you tell him
Sam: She did
Sherry: guess what happened
Trish: What
Sherry: well Maria told Josh who told Alexa who told Julia...
Sam: here they go again
Trent: Tell me about it, I don't even know these people
Reggie: Too bad you guys didn't get stuck with someone like...
Sam: You
Trent: Yeah Lars seems like he has no problem with you I mean except that
he hates you guys but I think you were paired on purpose because no other
girl would want him
Reggie: Why he's cute
Sherry: Sure he's cute but he's a jerk how do you manage
Reggie: I'm the Reginator I can do anything (She heads to her locker as the
bell rings)
(After school, Reggie takes a break for the day to rest for the
competition, at the shack. She feels bad she was left out because of Lars
in fact she had no idea where Lars was they had already done the budget
thing because they were so busy they decided to get it over with during one
of their classes early that week. So now she was alone everyone else
seemed to be hangout with the person they were paired with. She sighed.
Why did she have to get the biggest jerk in the school?)
Twister: (And Otto skate up) hey Rocket Girl!
Otto: Long time no see
Reggie: I've been busy training
Otto: Alone
Twister: No dude, with Lars remember, we followed them
Otto: Twister!
Reggie: Chill I knew but don't worry Lars is just a big jerk who knows what
to say when he's in trouble
Twister: Told you it was about the grade bro
Otto: she didn't say that
Twister: Oh well let's hang out I'm bored everyone is all paired it's so
gross
Otto: We're not
Reggie: You two have always been paired
Twister: Well let me tell you its not fun hanging out with just Otto for 12
hours a day for 2 weeks
Otto: there are 24 hours in a day
Twister: Oh man you know that too now you'll be sleeping over every night.
It's like one of those marathons and next is Otto and after that Otto and
then...Otto Ahh I'm going crazy
Otto: I thought you liked me
Twister: I do (He smiles) think about what would happen if I didn't
Otto: (Rolls his eyes) so hang with us Reg
Reggie: I can't I have to rest until Saturday
Otto: That only means one thing
Twister: Otto Moviethon at my house next up is Otto followed by Otto and
then more Otto
Reggie: Wait I thought you said that was a bad thing
Twister: Oh yeah well when you're watch Otto on TV you can hit him with
those sticky darts and he wouldn't womp you
Reggie: (Laughs) Okay I'll come but I want my own dart gun
Otto: Hey lets watch Twister instead then
Twister: Sorry bro I can't tape myself (They head towards Twister's house)
(At Twister Reggie and Twister have dart guns and there are darts all over
the TV screen Otto groans he likes watching himself but not when Twister is
throwing darts at him. He stands up for the third time and removes the
darts)
Otto: No more please
Twister: No this is fun
Otto: Guys this is cruel
Reggie: Otto it's not personal you're just a camera hog
(Lars walks in and stands in front of the TV)
Twister: Yes and the problem this time would be
Lars: What shoes (Twister looks at his shoes they look almost the same
except for the logo)
Reggie: You're a lame-o (She hits him with a dart Otto and Twister gasp)
Lars: Reggie! I should womp you
Reggie: Can't! Can you? or your little grade will go down the drain?
Lars: Urggh forget about the grade the shoes
Twister: The left one
Lars: You're left or mine
Twister: mine now move
Reggie: Jerk (She says as Lars leaves)
Lars: Urggh! (They hear him say)
Otto: That was sweet Reg what happened
Reggie: That jerk was using me to get him a good grade
Twister: Told you so (he hits the TV Otto with a dart)
Otto: Oh man I'm sorry Reg but I did say he was a Jerk (Twister hits the TV
Otto with a dart)
Reggie: I know Otto, but it's cool. I still have you guys (Twister hits
Otto with a dart)
Otto: Twister!
Twister: Opps I forgot which one was the real you Otto
Otto: The one with three sides! (He jumps at Twister and it fades to the
next day)
(Lars is at his game he dominates the field and the other team's coach has
noticed and they are all over Lars three guys are on him, but he still
manages to score with the help of his team. It is 16-0 at half time it's
the highest scoring game in the schools record the Coach huddles them in
for a talk.)
Coach: You guys are doing great out there just keep it up
Chris: yeah let's win this and we'll go to the State competition (he puts
his hand in the circle and the other guys and the coach follow then
everyone looks at Lars who has not put his hand in. He has glanced at the
clock again) Lars
Lars: Oh right let's uh...I have to go
Coach: You have to what
Lars: I have to go I have something important to do
Coach: What's more important then soccer
Lars: I got to go you guys can do it I know you can they're all over me so
if I'm not in there it will surprise them so much they wouldn't know what
to do and we're up high enough you can't lose now I have to go
Coach: But Lars
Lars: I have to go (He runs out towards the beach)
Coach: Okay umm...Mike you're in
Mike: Yes, Yes Mom, and Dad always come and this is the first time I'm
playing
Coach: All right guys, good luck you'll need it (It fades out)
(To Reggie she waits for the race to start next to Twister and Otto)
Otto: You can beat them Reg
Twister: Yeah although Trish trained hard and Sherry is awesome you'll
still win
Otto: Nice Twist
Reggie: I know I'll do fine where Sam is
Otto: With Trish he was over here but then Trish came over and asked him
what he was doing rooting for some one else he was suppose to be Trish's
biggest fan Sam tried to explain that it was just a assignment but Trish
wouldn't listen
Twister: Where is Sam's on button I'm hot
Otto: Twister!
Twister: Just kidding bro
(A Judge blows a whistle)
Judge: race will start in five minutes
Reggie: Later guys (She heads to the start line and stretches out)
Otto: I hope she trained hard enough
Lars: Oh she did (He says come up from behind them Twister and Otto jump)
Twister: You're here
Lars: Yeah I'm here
Twister: To watch Reg so you lied about lying
Lars: I guess so am I too late to wish her luck
Otto: Of course, you are (He glares)
Twister: I don't think so Reggie! Reggie!
Lars: It's cool Twist
Twister: Reggie! (Reggie looks up and walks over)
Reggie: You okay
Twister: Yeah
Lars: Good Luck Wife
Reggie: Lars! What about Soccer
Lars: No one was there to watch me win
Reggie: So you left
Lars: Yup at half time 16-0 us I thought they could handle it
Reggie: Cool thanks for coming coach
Otto: Reggie! Are you racing or talking?
Reggie: Later (She runs to the starting line)
(Afterwards at the Shack there is a celebration for Reggie she hadn't just
won, she creamed them. Lars hung around for a while and then went on to
the boardwalk and looked over at the Ocean. Inside Otto, Twister, and Sam
were still doing their victory dance on the counter)
Sam, Otto, and Twister: Go Reggie Go Reggie it's your birthday it's your
birthday
Reggie: Guys stop
Sam: (Sits on the counter) Reggie that was so awesome you creamed them I
knew you would (He looks towards Trish) I mean it was okay, I've seen
umm...better
Reggie: Thanks Sammie
Twister: Yeah you were like fast almost as fast as a turtle
Reggie: Thanks Twister I think
Otto: I couldn't have done it better well I could have, I mean I'm Otto I'm
the best
Reggie: right Otto thanks
Otto: No problem
Trish: You really did awesome Reg (Trish says walking up) I didn't even
think you had a chance at beating me. I'm glad you beat me you deserved it
you must have practiced for weeks
Reggie: Not really I just had an awesome Coach who isn't here at the moment
(She looks around) I'll be back (She heads out) what's up Coach
Lars: Oh hey Reggie (He says as she walks up to him she gazes to the ocean
as well)
Reggie: Thanks for showing
Lars: No sweat Reg. It was worth it
Reggie: Yeah you know if you go to your state thing Saturday I'll come and
watch
Lars: You're serious (he looks at her)
Reggie: yup
Lars: but Reg it's a tournament
Reggie: And?
Lars: Like a Hockey tournament 8 teams go in one comes out that's 7 games
Reggie: I'll come
Lars: Thanks Reg I'm sorry I said those things
Reggie: You didn't mean it
Lars: Yeah well I said them I just I didn't mean it
Reggie: Well I did mean to throw that dart at you but I'm sorry too
Lars: we call it even
Reggie: Okay come back to the party
Lars: Nah I'm going home. Congratulations though you deserve it
(Reggie felt that that might have been the single most rewarding thing
anyone had said to her all night everyone else had meant to say that but it
just didn't come out that way. Reggie smiled she thought that is must be
good to be on Lars' good side)
(The next Monday on the way home from school)
Sam: so nothing new on your assignment thing
Reggie: Nope
Sam: Oh well Trish moved us closer to Sherry so I lost my job now I have to
be a computer...
Reggie: Saturday I'm going to the school Soccer tournament you want to come
with me
Sam: You are why?
Reggie: Lars came to root me on I'm going to root him on
Sam: Count me out
Reggie: Sam Lars told me that no one ever came to see him play
Sam: No wonder Reg Lars is the most feared guy in Ocean Shores every kid is
afraid of him and most adults are the only people who aren't are his
parents, and Mackenzie
Reggie: I'm not Lars is sweet once you're on his good side
Sam: Well getting there is murder so I wouldn't risk it and please don't
use Lars and sweet in the same sentence unless you're talking about sweet
revenge
(Otto and Twister skate up)
Twister: What's up?
Sam: Nothing much I moved
Twister: Oh no where!
Sam: not in real life
Otto: Oh that's good
Reggie: Twister, will you go with me Saturday
Twister: Where?
Reggie: To the soccer games to cheer on your brother, he says you've never
been to any of his games I think he'd like it if you came
Twister: Like it?
Otto: Or womp you think Twister you owe him nothing but a black eye
Twister: Otto's right Reg I don't
Reggie: Awe come on maybe he'll lay off
Twister: Sorry Reg I can't I wouldn't and unlike Otto, you can't talk me
into it
Reggie: Fine, I'll just go alone
Otto: Why
Reggie: He came to watch me
Otto: So
Reggie: So that's why (She walks away)
Otto: Oh that jerk Reggie's my sister
Twister: Mine too and don't worry this could be a good thing
Otto: How
Sam: Yeah explain
Twister: Lars has eased up
Sam: Huh?
Twister: when we were following them he almost womped those kids who poured
water on him Reggie stopped him, Reggie got him to ditch his soccer game to
see her compete if Lars is busy with Reg he can't be busy womping us.
Besides what harm can they do?
Otto: That's right! Say hello to a Lars free zone
Sam: Don't push it Otto Reggie can only do so much
Otto: Okay
Sam: I got to go Trish want to go Urggh Shopping at the mall with Sherry
and Trent later (He leaves)
Otto: You know this marriage thing could be a good thing Madtown is empty.
All JR. High kids no Lars this is starting to look good
Twister: I know and Reggie's my sister
Otto: thanks for spoiling the moment
(Reggie was heading to the Shack after telling Otto that she was going when
she noticed Lars who seemed not to notice her at all. It was as if he was
deep in thought about something so deep that he nearly crashed into
everyone he past, Reggie grabs him as he passes by)
Reggie: What is wrong Lars?
Lars: Reg (He jumps he looks around like he had no idea where he was) did
we plan to meet
Reggie: Nope I just say you skating what's wrong you look worried
Lars: It's well uh nothing I can't tell you
Reggie: Of course, you can
Lars: No
Reggie: Well okay you want to hang out
Lars: Sure I was well I was going to go mountain boarding I have no idea
how I got here
Reggie: You skated but lets ride bikes instead come on (She leads him home
to grab their stuff the head out toward the forest behind their houses) So
I tried to get Twister to come with me on Saturday he said no
Lars: That's not a surprise (He sighs)
Reggie: Twister bugging you
Lars: Sort of I just no Reg I said I couldn't tell you
Reggie: Come on I'll weasel it out of you anyway, just spill (Lars stops)
Lars: Okay, it's Twister I just want him to like me. Well maybe not even
like me but to look up to me
Reggie: But Lars he does (She stops next to him)
Lars: No he doesn't. He hates me
Reggie: I'm serious Lars he admires you more then any brother, and more
then he should. A month ago you told him that he was a good brother and he
went crazy we couldn't get him to keep quite about it for weeks.
Lars: Really?
Reggie: Lars you have a big impact on Twister when you're in bad way so is
he and when you're cool he is super cool
Lars: I didn't know that
Reggie: Of course not
Lars: Wait I never said that I said that at least I my brother wasn't as
bad as Otto and I wasn't even talking to him
Reggie: Well to him you gave him the best compliment
Lars: How
Reggie: Well Otto's always been better then him, and to be a better brother
then Otto well that's almost like calling Twister a god. See all you have
to do is slip a compliment into everyday conversation and you'll make his
week
Lars: Thanks Reg I can do that I think
Reggie: Just don't scare him by saying too many things at once
Lars: Okay sounds good
(Late that night as Lars, Twister, Sandy, and Raoul eat dinner.)
Sandy: So what did you boys do today?
Lars: Well...I was skating Madtown (He lies) and this guy comes up and nearly
makes me trip so I was all going to bust on him. He said he was all, sorry
he was just excited because he won this contest. I asked him which and he
was like a sandcastle contest what a freak I thought. But then I told him
that my little brother could make a better sandcastle then him so the next
time he won one of those things he might think twice about cutting me off.
Sandy: Oh that's nice (Twister's mouth drops open) chew your food Maurice
we don't want to look at it
Twister: You really said that
Lars: Or something like it
Twister: Cool
Lars: Yeah you should have seen him run
Raoul: Now Lars was that nice
Lars: No sir
Raoul: What did we say about picking on the little kids?
Lars: Don't, sir
Raoul: That's better
Sandy: Mi Hermona called today. She said we should visit her Saturday
Raoul: That sounds good
Lars: I have a State Soccer game
Raoul: Well you can stay here we will go
Lars: Yeah okay (He frowns and goes back to eating)
Twister: Maybe I could stay here with the Rockets
Raoul: Maurice this is your family
Sandy: Scottie said he was excited about seeing his favorite cousin
Twister: Oh (he rolls his eyes) could I go to Lars' game he's family!
Lars: Serious I mean it would be cool of you
Sandy: I don't know he was looking forward to it
Twister: But Lars is my brother and Scottie's just my cousin
Raoul: If the boys want to hang out
Sandy: All right then
Twister: Later Mom I have to call Reggie (He leaves) yes out of Scottie
duty
Lars: I get it (he mumbles standing up and clearing the table)
(In Twister's room Twister is talking to Reggie)
Reggie: So you're coming that's cool Twister
Twister: I had to I didn't want to see Scottie
Reggie: So you're not going because you want to
Twister: Well kinda Lars told this guy today that I was the best sandcastle
builder on the planet
Reggie: he said that
Twister: yup cool huh
Reggie: Yeah sweet
Twister: Yeah, see you tomorrow Reg (he hangs up and quickly falls asleep)
(The next day, after school Reggie, Sam, and Otto are hanging out at the
Shack)
Sam: I am so glad Trish just wanted to hang with Sherry
Otto: Me too the four amigos together
Reggie: Four? Otto I think you didn't count right
Otto: Yeah where's Twister
(Eddie skates in)
Eddie: Otto master of the skateboard, and the hockey stick I was sent to
fetch you
Otto: Ok Fido but what's up?
Eddie: It's the Twisted one he's doing something Gnarly at the beach
Reggie: Twister Gnarly
Eddie: Come the kids sent me to retrieve you
Sam: Coming
Otto: Is Eddie, part dog
Reggie: Otto (They follow Eddie out to the beach. Twister was in a trance
building a sandcastle)
Otto: What in the name of all skateboards are you doing
Twister: Oh hey guys I'm making a sandcastle
Sam: what's that?
Twister: Oh that's a town's person's hut and this is a town's person. This
is the castle where the king lives
Reggie: King Lars?
Twister: No King Fredrick
Otto: Fredrick?
Twister: Short for Freddie
Sam: Twister it looks like you build a medieval city
Twister: No, no it's from the enlighten period see, see I made sure
Reggie: So (She laughs)
Otto: What's so funny? And why are you doing this
Twister: Lars said I was an awesome Sandcastle
Reggie: The way you said it last night he called you the best in the world
Twister: So he did
Sam: Twister we were going to go surfing
Twister: Go I have to finish the baby's room in the castle
Reggie: Okay have fun we'll be ripping it in the water
Otto: You know (They head towards the water) I really hate Lars even when
he's nice its annoying Twister isn't going to stop building sandcastle for
weeks
Reggie: Yeah but its kind of sweet if I said you were an awesome
snowboarder what would you do
Otto: Of course, I am Reg is there a question
Reggie: Urggh
Sam: I don't think it's healthy for Twister to do this
Reggie: Sure it is
(Back to Twister who is working hard some kids gawk they can't understand
it how could one person do this just then a shadow falls on Twister)
Twister: (Looks up) Ahh!
Pi: Nice to see you too
Sputz: You messed up the beach bad bro
Twister: Messed it up?
Pi: What's with the sandmen?
Twister: pretty cool huh I'm the best
Pi: Watch I have something to show you (Twister watches as Pi kicks the
main castle)
Twister: Hey, look what you did!
Sputz: Look what I did (He points to the crumbled village)
Twister: You ruined it now it's just
Pi: Dirt like what you live in you worm
Sputz: Worm that's a good one Pi (Twister tears and then runs off)
Reggie: Hey that was so not cool
Pi: What do you care?
Otto: You messed with our bro
Sputz: Oh sorry
Pi: What are you going to do about it shrimp?
Sam: well nothing really
Reggie: Lars wouldn't like this
Pi: What are you talking about Rocket busting on little worms is what we
do?
Reggie: Not when the Worms Twister
Sputz: We're just not allowed to womp him
Otto: Reggie what are you doing?
Pi: Do you have a problem with it Rocket? (He glares at Reggie)
Reggie: Guys chill I'm just saying
Pi: You're asking for a knuckle sandwich
Lars: What are you guys doing?
Sam: Ahh!
Pi: Well see that Twisted punk was here and he was building this sand thing
Sputz: Like a freak
Otto: So they kicked it down
Reggie: And called Twister a worm
Lars: Okay so umm...
Reggie: Lars he made the sandcastle for you and your lame-O friends messed
it up
Lars: Oh...wait, what am I suppose to do about that it's ruined
Pi: Yeah, cool huh
Lars: Urggh Pi just chill for a second where did Twister go?
Sputz: I don't know
Otto: I know lets surf
Reggie: Otto!
Sam: Sounds good to me come on Reggie
Lars: Let's go too
Reggie: What about Twister?
Pi: What about him?
Lars: Deal with that later, now I have to show Otto whose king of those
waves (The guys run out)
Reggie: Urggh, boys (She heads out and passes Lars heading back in) What
are you doing?
Lars: I can't let them know I'm being nice to Twister keep my guys
distracted Wife Later
Reggie: Yeah later. (He paddles back) Hey Boys can you keep up
Otto: You're so on
(To Lars who's looking for Twister he almost gave up when he tripped over
him)
Twister: Lars! (He looks sad)
Lars: Twister (He glares)
Twister: I didn't mean to be in your way
Lars: You okay?
Twister: No I made this cool thing for some one cause I knew he liked it
but some guys ruined it now it's nothing but dirt
Lars: What did you make?
Twister: a Sandcastle
Lars: Make a different one
Twister: no they'll just mess it up again and it was too much work
Lars: here I'll help you
Twister: Really
Lars: are you really going to my soccer game?
Twister: Yeah
Lars: Then there's your answer
Twister: Cool
Lars: So show me how I've never done this
Twister: Okay (So they build a sandcastle not as good as the other but some
how better just then Reggie, Otto, Sam, Pi and Sputz walks up)
Pi: What's up with this bro?
Lars: Hey umm... (He takes his bucket of Sand and pours over Twister's head)
Twister: Hey (He jumps)
Lars: Haha got you bro
Sputz: Nice one
Twister: (Spits out sand) Thanks bro
Lars: No sweat
Reggie: Real nice guys I like this castle
Pi: me too, but its missing the footprint (he picks his foot up)
Lars: No you don't (He pushes him and he falls being on one foot)
Sputz: What was that about?
Lars: Uh (He takes a bucket of sand) I decided that it was Twister day and
since you're all Twister I have to mess with you
Pi: Oh great not again (He stands up and runs Lars chases after Pi and
Sputz)
Twister: Twister day!
Otto: Again
Sam: I suppose Lars gets bored easily and so he makes it Twister day to
pull pranks on his bros
Reggie: Makes sense to me
Otto: Look I'm Twister and I have no brain cells
Reggie: Look I'm Twister and I lost my hat
Sam: No wait I'm Twister and I uh...wait I forgot
Twister: Hey wait I was, Twister remember you guys can't be Twister too
Otto: Let's hit the shack for Grindage I need a fish taco
Twister: Hey you don't like fish tacos (The gang walks away acting like
Twister) Stop it guys I'm serious (he catches up to them and it fades out)
(The next day after school Twister is on the Rocket's half pipe Otto went
inside for some Grindage and Reggie walked over from Twister's house she
had been practicing guitars with Lars)
Reggie: Hey Twistamond-O
Twister: Reggie what's up?
Reggie: You know Twist you're not suppose to be at some ones house when
they're not
Twister: Otto just went inside Reg and plus I'm not inside I'm out and plus
I'm family you're my sister
Reggie: Right so you're really going Saturday right?
Twister: I wasn't but well Lars was cool to me yesterday so yeah I'll be
there
Reggie: You know I've seen him practice he's their best player
Twister: Really, he doesn't talk about it much
Reggie: Have you asked him?
Twister: Well no but what if he tries to womp me?
Reggie: Twister every time you get womped for asking him something it's
because you want something but if you asked him about something that he
liked something he was good at I think you'd find he'd be less likely even
to raise a fist
Twister: Well I don't...
Reggie: (Interrupts) don't you think its sort of sad that no ones ever been
to one of his games. I mean he's there best player and no one not his
friends, his parents, or his brother has even gone to see him play. Even
players who never set foot on the field in a game have their parents there
for every game. I kinda of feel sorry for the guy, no one even cares about
him enough to see him in one game. How can some live like think that no
one cares about him that he's not wanted, if it was me I'd quit but not
Lars. Instead of doing things for other people he does it for himself and
he's the best player on the team. What if he was doing this for some one
what would he be, the best in California. Think how awsome he'd be if he
had one person to cheer him on if he's that awesome with one what would
happen if more people came. I can't even beginning to image it. I still
feel sorry for him cause even if he wins it will never feel great because
there would be anyone there to tell him how amazing he is. (Reggie walks
away shaking her head)
Twister: (Stops skating a the top of the pipe. He sits down and beginnings
to think about that what if no one ever came to see him play it would be a
nightmare. He'd never be able to handle it. He began to fell sorry for
his brother who had no one and Twister had everyone) Por' Lars
Otto: Ha poor Lars (He comes out) Are you crazy
Twister: Otto you think Lars gets sad because no one goes to his soccer
games
Otto: Twister this is Lars remember you don't owe him anything. He never
goes to your things and remember he has Reggie going
Twister: Oh yeah I forgot lets skate
Otto: That's better
(It fades out to later that night Lars is in conversation with Clio. Lars
is in his room so no one can hear)
Lars: So I apologized to her for being a jerk and you know what happened
she forgave me it was amazing. She's coming to my soccer game I'm really
excited about it and maybe a little nervous. Oh She came over today and we
spent the whole time playing our guitars. She's amazing I didn't know she
was that good she taught me this song,
Hast Du etwas Zeit für mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Denkst Du vielleicht grad' an mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Und daß sowas von sowas kommt
99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Hielt man für UFOs aus dem All
Darum schickte ein General
'ne Fliegerstaffel hinterher
Alarm zu geben, wenn's so wär
Dabei war'n da am Horizont
Nur 99 Luftballons
99 Düsenflieger
Jeder war ein großer Krieger
Hielten sich für Captain Kirk
Das gab ein großes Feuerwerk
Die Nachbarn haben nichts gerafft
Und fühlten sich gleich angemacht
Dabei schoß man am Horizont
Auf 99 Luftballons
99 Kriegsminister
Streichholz und Benzinkanister
Hielten sich für schlaue Leute
Witterten schon fette Beute
Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht
Mann, wer hätte das gedacht
Daß es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 Luftballons
99 Jahre Krieg
Ließen keinen Platz für Sieger
Kriegsminister gibt's nicht mehr
Und auch keine Düsenflieger
Heute zieh ich meine Runden
Seh' die Welt in Trümmern liegen
Hab' 'nen Luftballon gefunden
Denk' an Dich und laß' ihn fliegen (99 red balloons German)
Clio: Lars this is amazing
Lars: What? (he questions with his eyes even though she couldn't see him)
Clio: You like her
Lars: Clio I told you we were friends
Clio: No Lars you're crushing on her
Lars: Reggie! Its not possible Clio
Clio: Lars it is possible and its true. You just spend the last two hours
telling me about her and I just called to ask you what the weather was like
for when I come for thanksgiving in a couple of weeks. I know you Lars you
don't talk that much and not about one person.
Lars: Reggie, no Clio I don't I can't its not p-possible
Clio: Well Lars I say you do, just open your eyes because apparantly your
hearts seen what your eyes, don't or can't your heart sees the not
possible, believe me Lars I didn't think it was possible that that black
coal heart of yours could have any room to Love anyone but you're showing
the signs man
Lars: Clio if you say anything to anyone
Clio: I'm zipped up and besides no ones going to believe it lover boy later
Lars: Yeah later (They hang up and Lars walks out of his room passing
Twister's room on the way to the kitchen)
Twister: Clean up Maurice that's all they ever tell me. Don't you need to
clean your room (Lars walks in Twister doesn't notice until he goes over
picking up clothes) I thought I put my shoes away (He grabs them and tries
to lift) Ahhh my shoes grew feet
Lars: Hey Twist
Twister: Ahhh my shoes grew a Lars
Lars: These are my shoes and you're over due
Twister: No bro I have to c-clean
Lars: Yup (He grabs Twister and clenches his fist)
Twister: I'll do anything, I'll give you my skateboard, my room, please.
Lars: Say your prayers
Twister: Oh man (Then it hits Twister shakily says) Can I have a last
question?
Lars: Go on
Twister: When you play soccer do you ever trip over the ball?
Lars: Only if I'm you, Twister only Lame-os trip over the ball
Twister: Right how many positions are there?
Lars: Ten and a goalie what are you getting at
Twister: What position do you play?
Lars: Center, sometimes I'll play the wings why
Twister: I want to know when I go and see you play Saturday
Lars: You're coming? (He lets Twister go)
Twister: Yeah so what does the Center do exactly?
Lars: (Looks Twister over surprised) Do you really want to know?
Twister: Yeah and what do those other things do?
Lars: Come on I'll show you (Lars leads Twister into his room and pulls out
a pad of paper and then sits on the floor and leans against his bed Twister
sits next to him but not too close. Lars begins to draw a soccer field
putting the different position on there) This is the center I can go any
where right along with the wings they are all forward positions meaning
there in the front
Twister: I can't see
Lars: Move closer braincase. Ok they're all called forwards or Strikers.
Now these are the middle fielders, they can't cross the midpoint in the
field understand they there to stop the other forwards from getting to the
goal understand? Now these are the defenders they all have special names
like the stopper they have to they support the midfielders while protecting
the goal and try to keep me away from the goal. These are the fullbacks
they make the defense zones they defend the goal from the center and the
wings. The sweeper stands here and protects the goalie. Now you know what
a goalie does right?
Twister: Yup, what kind of plays do you do? Do you have to wear a helmet?
How come none of these guys have skates?
Lars: No you don't have to wear a helmet its soccer not hockey we don't
have skates. Here look this is a play (he starts drawing arrows all over
the page) I go here and then here and pass to him and then
Twister: Where is your stick?
Lars: You pass with your feet no one can touch the ball while it's in play
unless it's the goalie
Twister: Oh Lars what's that?
Lars: Oh that's the stands
Twister: Oh where are all the screaming fans?
Lars: Well...I...I don't have fans Twister (He says quickly)
Twister: Oh does it make you sad
Lars: Sad?
Twister: That you don't have any fans?
Lars: Well...That's a dumb question Twister I don't get sad you should know
that if you're going to be stupid you're going to have to leave
Twister: No Lars I want to hear more about this sport before Saturday.
Lars: Okay this is... (They go on until Twister falls asleep on Lars at two
in the morning)
(The next day at school)
Lars: There is no (Yawn) way. I don't like her (He looks down the hall
where Reggie was with her friends) No way, I don't like her, not her or her
smile, or how she makes me laugh or (he shakes it off as she comes by) Hey
R-Reggie
Reggie: Lars I'm so excited about Saturday, but there sort a problem
Lars: Of course (He frowns)
Reggie: I just need you to tell Ray its cool he doesn't want me there alone
and if you're there then he'll chill
Lars: How do I do that?
Reggie: Today after school come to the Shack ok
Lars: I (Yawns as he says) can do
Reggie: You look thrashed
Lars: Yeah I'm exhausted Twister spent the whole night wanting me to
explain the whole of the game of Soccer to him
Reggie: Wasn't his way of getting out of a womping was it (She grins a
little)
Lars: Uh (He starts) actually he did get out of my womping but whatever it
was still cool of him. Personal I think he'd rather have the few minutes
of pain then the hours I spent confusing him
Reggie: (Laughs) Sounds like you might be getting along
Lars: Reggie, quiet will you. What if people heard you?
Reggie: Sorry (The bell rings) I'll see you in 5th period then later (She
waves as she walks away)
Lars: (gets a weird feeling) No, you don't like her (He heads to class)
she said she would. She came a little late but she was still there. She
watched from the side as Lars scored goal after goal he was really the best
player on the team, in fact, he was the team. The coach called a five-
minute break and then told the team to take a lap. While he talked to Lars
and two other players about the plays, they should have for the games on
Saturday. Then the coach called for a huddle Lars listened and then walked
over to his position passing Reggie, he pauses finally noticing her)
Lars: I didn't think you'd show
Reggie: I told you I would
Lars: Well you didn't have to no one ever comes to see me play
Reggie: no one what about your parents
Lars: to busy
Reggie: your brother
Lars: right my brother
Reggie: Your friends
Lars: They think soccer is lame because it's not on wheels or a board
Reggie: Well I think you play very well you're so awesome
Lars: Thanks (He says looking away embarrassed) we only running this last
play then we'll get started ok
Reggie: sure Lars
Lars: Ok later wife (he runs on to the field and they run the play Lars
passes to this guy and he trips over the ball Lars rolls his eyes and
recovers the ball scoring)
Coach: That was awesome Lars way to recover ok that's a day hit the locker
rooms boys. (He walks over to Lars) you wouldn't miss Saturday will you.
With you on the team, we'd make it to state
Lars: No way
Coach: that's great. Remember we're counting on you Lars
Lars: yeah whatever (he heads over to Reggie) lets go
Reggie: the Pressures on
Lars: oh that I can deal with it so what event are we practicing
Reggie: well Otto helps me with swimming, and Twister helps me with biking
Lars: So I have running well let's start
Reggie: Sam always rides on the tourist bus and I run behind
Lars: ha that's good Reggie. I have a better idea we have to run together
Reggie: together
Lars: (Starts running) yeah now hurry up
Reggie: I'm coming (She catches up to him and then keeps going in front of
him) I'm beating you
Lars: Reggie we're going to run to the end of Ocean Shores and back twice
so don't go so fast
Reggie: Lars I want to win
Lars: Reg you need to tone
Reggie: huh?
Lars: You want to be in the best shape possible when you race and running
faster doesn't help it just tries you out but you do what you want
Reggie: fine but can you go a little faster
Lars: Yeah
(At the Shack a while later)
Otto: Where's Reg we should be training
Twister: Not sure but all the JR. High kids seem to be hanging out with
their pretend spouses
Otto: Reggie hanging with Lars? Yeah right not unless she has to
Twister: But dude she does
(Sam and Trish walk in)
Sam: Trish that's not fair I made the money and you want to spend it on a
trip to Sherry's
Trish: I miss her
Sam: you saw her five minutes ago
Trish: You never do what I want
Sam: Fine but no Monkey
Trish: Thanks Sammie, now about the boat
Sam: What boat?
Trish: The one I brought
Sam: Trish, we're supposed to discuss these things!
Trish: Okay Mr. Drum set
Sam: I said I was sorry
Trish: Well I'm not
Sam: Trish!
Trish: Sam (She glares and Sam backs up)
Twister: This is good (He laughs)
Otto: Yeah just so long as we don't have to live it
Sherry: (And Trent come in) I should have listened to my mother and waited
before getting married
Trent: Well I'm not thrilled either
Sherry: Sam would be a better husband then you
Trent: I'm so sure
Sherry: Anyone would
Twister: My brother?
Sherry: Well no, I'm so glad I'm not Reggie
Trish: Same here, think about the trouble we're having she must be dying
Sam: Yeah we're so better off
Twister: You'd be surprised (He had been in the house last week when Reggie
and Lars would work on the project he didn't see any problems)
Otto: Yeah Reggie can handle that dork
(Lars runs in)
Trish: Speaking of which just watch Otto you'll eat your words
Lars: Hurry up Reg
(Reggie drags in)
Reggie: Can't Go any further
Lars: You don't have to we're here
Reggie: (Sits at a table) I'll feel this tomorrow
Lars: Sorry I was so tough
Reggie: It's cool; I just can't move a finger
Lars: That's why I'm here I think husband equals personal slave, even a
pretend one
Reggie: Okay, personal slave, get me a soda, with a Hawaiian burger and
fries
Lars: Do you really think that will help you win what you need is a salad
with water and...
Reggie: Fries
Lars: Fine fries (he walks to the counter) Mr. Rocket Reggie says she wants
a salad, fries, and water
Ray: Reggie wants a s-s-s-Salad?!
Lars: She does
Tito: One salad coming pronto
Ray: And you?
Lars: I have no money on me
Ray: you're with Reggie so you eat free
Lars: Serious!
Otto: No, Dad that's Lars
Lars: I'll just have water then
Ray: Don't listen to Otto, besides we owe you from dinner
Lars: Then I'll have the same no fries (He turns around to wait. Everyone
is gawking at him) What? (He looks toward Twister)
Twister: Are you and Reggie getting along?
Lars: Sure I guess
Twister: Are you friends?
Lars: Uh I don't know Twister who cares
Otto: I do she's my sister!
Lars: Yeah I know
Twister: Well you aren't our friend
Lars: So, that means that I can't be nice to the person that I happened to
be paired with?
Otto: Is nice even part of your vocabulary
Lars: I could be mean if that's what you want?
Otto: Just lay off Lars she's not your friend this is only pretend. It's
just a grade
Lars: Grades are important
Otto: Leave her alone or I'll ruin your rep
(Reggie walks over)
Reggie: Are they giving you a hard time
Lars: Reggie I uh...have to g-go I'll see you uh...later, I think (He leaves)
Reggie: What did you do? (Reggie asks Otto)
Otto: I saved you
Reggie: Lars didn't do anything
Otto: Reg he's Lars he does everything
Reggie: Otto you're judging based on what the few times you've talked to
him oh wait you've never talked to him
Otto: Reg I understand you have this assignment, but Lars is a blackmailer,
he's deceitful, he's evil. You can't have fun with him
Reggie: That's not fair
Otto: If you're friend with him forget the ice hockey team this year. I'll
get Trent to play
Reggie: Otto that's not fair
Otto: Do I hear and echo? Take it or leave it come on Twist you too Sam
(He and Twister leave)
Sam: Saved! (He runs out)
Trish: Samuel Dullard get back here right now Urggh (She chases after them)
Sherry: Trish (She follows)
Trent: Urggh not again (he goes)
(Reggie sits at the counter)
Reggie: Otto's never fair
Ray: Reggie I see what's happening but this is really your fight. I'm not
getting involved. I know you can handle Otto and Twist.
Reggie: Yeah (She leaves)
(Reggie walks home but before she gets there she sees Lars pacing his yard
she goes over)
Reggie: You ok?
Lars: I had fun
Reggie: Fun?
Lars: You know hanging out you and me. Reg did you?
Reggie: Yeah
Lars: Then what's your brother's problem he doesn't think we can have fun
Reggie: We can't hang out anymore not unless it's for the assignment
Lars: That's crazy Reg; you've made it on my potential friend list
Reggie: List? Is that good?
Lars: Never mind it's just something I do. Sometimes I think Pi and Sputz
aren't very good friends, but you are, wife. I have fun with you, we talk,
and well that's more then I ever had with those two
Reggie: SO what I could be your friend
Lars: (nods) Reggie I like hanging with you so don't stop hanging out with
me cause of Otto
Reggie: I don't know (She wants to be his friends but she wants on the
hockey team)
Lars: Fine I get the hint; forget I said it (He leaves)
(The next day on the way to school Reggie and Sam walk alone)
Sam: Lars and you are good for each other
Reggie: Sam do you think Lars could be my friend?
Sam: Lars a friend?
Reggie: Sam he's cool to hang with, he listens to me, he makes me laugh,
Sam I think of him as a friend, but Otto oh...
Sam: Reg Otto's stubborn; if you think Lars is cool ignore Otto. He can't
live without you.
Reggie: Do you think?
Sam: Yup, just because you're friends with Otto doesn't mean you can't be
friends with anyone else you want including Lars.
Reggie: Thanks Sam
(After school Reggie heads over to the soccer field to watch the practice.
Lars again is amazing scoring nearly all the goals he is the best on the
team; after practice Lars runs over to Reggie)
Reggie: That was so awesome
Lars: (Looks suspicious) what are you doing here wife?
Reggie: I came to watch you practice. Will you help with the swimming part
of the triathlon? You're a better coach then Otto (She pleads)
Lars: (Thinks carefully before answering) Of Course, but what about
running?
Reggie: I have to train for all the races
Lars: Ok race you to the beach
Reggie: You're on (They race to the beach. Then Reggie and Lars spend 3
hours swimming in the Ocean. After Lars offers to walk her home) can you
carry me back?
Lars: very funny
Reggie: I'm serious. I'm exhausted.
Lars: Good
Reggie: Will you help me with biking tomorrow?
Lars: For you anything
Reggie Wow
Lars: What?
Reggie: I never thought you could be nice
Lars: Well I never thought we could get along but we have so much in common
it's scary
Reggie: After the assignment is over we can still hang out and stuff
Lars: I'd like that
Reggie: Cool well later (She goes in her house)
Otto: Where were you?
Reggie: Oh training
Otto: By yourself
Reggie: You weren't there; beside I don't need your help
Otto: But Reg we always train together
Reggie: Not this time I'm calling Twister and bailing
Otto: You sure?
Reggie: Sure I am you can just go back to having fun
Otto: Okay cool Reg. I'll call Twist for you (He grabs the phone Reggie
goes upstairs) Hey Twist
Twister: What's up?
Otto: Reggie says we're off the hook for training
Twister: Really that's cool
Otto: No, its weird we have to follow her tomorrow
Twister: Oh my Shoes!
Otto: Shoes?
Twister: Lars is whistling I think something is wrong
Otto: Whistling?
Twister: Close to you that's just weird
Otto: What?
Twister: The song close to you
Otto: What's that?
Twister: Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near; just like me
they want to be close to you Just like me they long to be,
Close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky?
When you walk by
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Otto: Okay, Twister stop something's up you follow your brother tomorrow I
have my sister
Twister: No way, you follow my brother I'll get my sister
Otto: You're sister?
Twister: Reggie's my pretend sister
Otto: Twister!
(The next day right after school Twister followed behind Reggie to the
soccer field where she of course was waiting for Lars to finish up.
Twister was getting bored just watching Reg so he sort of watched the
soccer game from under the bleachers when someone puts a hand on his
Shoulder)
Twister: Ahh! Oh Otto it's just you (He sighs)
Otto: Twister what are you doing here your suppose to be following my
sister
Twister: I am she's right over there I just stopped to watch Lars play I
never knew he was good at soccer
Otto: Reggie's here (He looks over) I told her
Twister: Chill Otto I think they're just getting the hours they have to
spend over with
Otto: Well why isn't she training
Twister: Because she doing H-h-h I can't say it
Otto: Homework (Twister shutters) alright well lets see what they do next
(They wait for fifteen more minutes the coach called practiced and Lars
headed over to Reggie)
Twister: I can't hear what they're saying
Otto: Then get closer
Twister: No way, if Lars sees me I'm burnt toast you go
Otto: Look (he points as three of the other players on the team sneak up
behind Lars with a cooler full of water to pour on him)
Twister: Oh man there so dead (They pour the water all over Lars. Who
clenches his fists and turns around very angry)
Lars: What are you Kooks trying to pull (He yells so Twister and Otto can
hear)
Guy 1: Lars buddy we were just having fun you know like pouring water on
our captain
Lars: Fun you think getting me all wet is fun, I pour water on my brother
for fun but no one ever pours water on me
Guy 2: Okay, okay chill it wouldn't happen again
Lars: No I'll make sure of that (He grabs one of the guys by the shirt and
is ready to womp)
Reggie: Lars lets go
Lars: Go (He looks over surprised he had forgotten she was there)
Reggie: Yeah I need to train and these lame-Os are just slow us down
Lars: (Drops the guy) Alright let's get out of here (He and Reggie head
towards the bike racks)
(To Twister and Otto who follow at a distance)
Twister: I c-cannot believe that once Lars has you in his clutches he
doesn't let go until your black and blue but Reggie got him to stop with
out even a blow to the head
Otto: I know Twister I know I told you something was up
Twister: You told me, right. You didn't even know what 'close to me' was.
Otto: Shh (He says pulling Twister into the bushes as Reggie and Lars ride
by) lets go (They follow behind on their skateboards)
Lars: (From in front of the guys) I can't believe them I'm soaked
Reggie: Calm down, Lars. It was water; you'll dry
Lars: Reggie I have a rep nobody gets away with these things I could womp
someone right now I'm so mad (He clenches the handles of his bike)
Reggie: Lars come on enough talk lets train
Lars: Alright, but I have to warn you bikes are my specialty (He rides
circles around Reggie's bike)
Reggie: Cut that out your going to make me crash
Lars: Reggie I'm not going to make you do anything only you can do that
Reggie: well you're in my way
Lars: Like this (He passes her so close she swerves)
Reggie: Lars you not trying to womp me because of that guy
Lars: No (He looks behind them and sees nothing but he had this weird
feeling something was following them) Let's go faster
Reggie: What happened to tone?
Lars: Tone faster wife lets go
Reggie: Where
Lars: The California Incline we're going to go up it
Reggie: What!
Lars: think Reg that's the steepest hill if you make that you'll make
anything
Reggie: Whatever you say coach
Lars: (glances back again but there was nothing who ever was there was good
but he knew he, she, it was out there) come on lets go (He speeds up and
Reggie follows then quickly turns onto the incline) ready
Reggie: (Looks up it) I guess you know Twister never made me do this
Lars: Did you win with Twister?
Reggie: No okay, I'm ready (They begin up the incline Twister, and Otto
come out from behind a newsstand)
Twister: She would have won last year
Otto: Come on let's follow them
Twister: No Otto, Lars knows we're here. If he sees us, we're dead
Otto: Then he wouldn't see us let's go they're getting away (He speeds
after)
Twister: Do we have to go up the incline? (He asks but Otto doesn't
answer) I'm coming
(Reggie and Lars made it up but not without Lars looking back about 10
times every minute)
Reggie: What's wrong with you? (Lars looks up as they turn off the incline
towards the right)
Lars: Some one is following us Reg I know it
Reggie: What you sense it
Lars: No Reg I hear them they're on skateboards but every time I turn
around, there is no one there
Reggie: (Looks back and then looks in front of her) better get your ears
checked
Lars: I'm not kidding Shhh, listen
Reggie: (listens) I don't hear it
Lars: I do ride faster Reg we'll lose them
Reggie: Whatever (She peddles faster although she's tired from the ride up
she's not sure why but she believes him after about five minutes of
peddling fast and not talking she begins to slow)
Lars: Reg follow me (He turns into an alley and stops she follows as he
turns to look back at the road) Shhh
(Twister and Otto skate by looking very confused. How can two people just
disappear?)
Lars: I knew it only Twister is that good
Reggie: Why were they following us?
Lars: Not us you and because your not suppose to be with me
Reggie: Oh man
Lars: I'll womp them for you
Reggie: No thanks Lars I can handle those two. How come I didn't hear
them?
Lars: Twister's practiced he follows me all the time well not anymore but
he use to
Reggie: That's cause he loves his big brother. (Reggie says making the
loves and big brother in a baby voice)
Lars: You have the wrong brother Reg. Come on lets go before they decided
to come back (He heads out going the opposite way)
(To Twister and Otto who have stopped three blocks away)
Twister: I told you he knew now we lost him and I'll probably be paying for
this tonight bro
Otto: Well this stinks on ice I told Reggie she couldn't hang out with that
dude
Twister: Chill Otto it wouldn't last they have to hang out it's the rules
and there's two things I know about Lars never get on his bad side and he
takes school way too seriously like it actually matters in real life
Otto: so he's like Sam, he's (Otto looks around) a nerd?
Twister: No, Lars isn't a nerd, and don't let people hear you say that
Otto. He's just smart okay
Otto: Okay well if you're sure it's just because he's a nerd then I guess
it's alright
Twister: That's good because I don't think Trent is as good of a hockey
player as Reggie
Otto: I wasn't really going to replace her I just said that so she'd stay
away from Lars
Twister: Oh did it work?
Otto: Does it look that way
Twister: I don't know hey let's skate down the incline (He heads back)
Otto: You're so on
(The next day Lars had just finished practicing)
Reggie: two days until the competition
Lars: Yeah I know so today we'll work on everything and then have practice
race tomorrow you'll chill so Saturday you'll be rested for the race
Reggie: Sounds good so, what first coach
Lars: keep up (He begins to run and Reggie follows they practice all day
until it gets darker and then they continue they were having such a good
time they didn't realizes that it was nearly 11 O'clock and tomorrow they
had school)
Reggie: I think I'm going to do it I'm really going to do this
Lars: I think you are too. You're good at these events
Reggie: Thanks to you
Lars: No it's all you I just helped.
Reggie: well I'm sticking to my story all right coach
Lars: Please Reg I can't let it get around that I helped you out
Reggie: Oh (She looks away) I understand so I guess you wouldn't be there
to see me win
Lars: Reg I have a soccer game if I'm not there we'll never make it to the
state tournament next weekend
Reggie: What does it matter if no one is there to watch you win?
Lars: (Tries not to look hurt by this comment) it matters to me. (He says
sounded hurt then he add defensively) I don't do things for other people I
do it for me.
Reggie: Yeah well what did you gain from helping me?
Lars: A grade Reggie that's it just a grade
Reggie: That's what I am to you a grade what happen to you having fun with
me
Lars: with you, ha you're a Rocket last time I checked we were still rivals
Reggie: So you made all that up for a grade
Lars: (Still on his defense says with out thinking) Clever huh?
Reggie: And to think that I believed you (She says with tears in her eyes
she walks away)
Lars: Urggh, Reg, oh man Lars you really blew it this time (He says heading
home which is in away following her) Later (He says as he head towards his
house she shrugs and goes in her house)
Reggie: That liar Otto was right I bet he lied about everything I bet he
doesn't remember my Mother and I bet he has been to my house
Ray: Reggie (He walks in) You just getting home
Reggie: Sorry I was training and lost track of time
Ray: well okay but you better get some sleep sweet heart
Reggie: I will night Dad (She heads upstairs)
(At Twister's house)
Lars: (Is in his room he kicks the wall that is between Twister and his
room) I can't believe I said that
(Twister comes in sleepy)
Twister: Would you mind kicking that wall
Lars: I'll kick your head if you don't leave
Twister: Sheesh Lars I'm trying to sleep what's your problem
Lars: Nothing now leave
Twister: Leaving (He heads out)
Lars: Urggh I have to talk to some one but who (he picks up his phone) who
would understand (he dials a number without thinking about who it is he was
calling he puts the phone to his ear)
Girl: hello
Lars: Hey
Girl: Lars?
Lars: Yeah can I talk to you Clio
Clio: Well I guess but it isn't like you
Lars: Shhh I know that but I need to talk to some one
Clio: Well about what
Lars: I...I...I... never mind (He hangs up) I can't even talk to my cousin I'll
just have to figure this out on my own
(The next day on the way to school)
Sam: That doesn't seem like the Lars you talked about a few days ago
Reggie: It isn't it's a jerk
Sam: So the marriage boat is beginning to rock (Reggie glares) Okay look
I've put together from what Twister's said Lars is really emotionally,
angry, mad, sad, and happy. He'll take it to the limit and take it out on
who ever is nearest so maybe it wasn't you maybe it was just something you
said.
Reggie: You think it was defense?
Sam: maybe you know whom he hangs with, maybe you just were joking but he
took it seriously
Reggie: Maybe that makes me feel better Sam so how's Trish
Sam: She's scary, exhausting, and not anything like a girl I'd like but
we're cool I guess
Trish: Sammie (She runs over) today after school we have to get our
shopping thing in so I planned to meet up with Sherry and we can all do it
together
Sam: Did I mention that Sherry and Trish are attached at the hip
Reggie: Can I come
Trish: With (She looks around and whispers) Lars?
Reggie: Well yeah
Trish: No way Reg
Sam: Sorry Reg but Lars isn't one of us I mean you might like him but we
don't
Reggie: I understand I guess (She sighs)
(Sherry walks up Trent comes up behind)
Sherry: Okay did you tell him
Sam: She did
Sherry: guess what happened
Trish: What
Sherry: well Maria told Josh who told Alexa who told Julia...
Sam: here they go again
Trent: Tell me about it, I don't even know these people
Reggie: Too bad you guys didn't get stuck with someone like...
Sam: You
Trent: Yeah Lars seems like he has no problem with you I mean except that
he hates you guys but I think you were paired on purpose because no other
girl would want him
Reggie: Why he's cute
Sherry: Sure he's cute but he's a jerk how do you manage
Reggie: I'm the Reginator I can do anything (She heads to her locker as the
bell rings)
(After school, Reggie takes a break for the day to rest for the
competition, at the shack. She feels bad she was left out because of Lars
in fact she had no idea where Lars was they had already done the budget
thing because they were so busy they decided to get it over with during one
of their classes early that week. So now she was alone everyone else
seemed to be hangout with the person they were paired with. She sighed.
Why did she have to get the biggest jerk in the school?)
Twister: (And Otto skate up) hey Rocket Girl!
Otto: Long time no see
Reggie: I've been busy training
Otto: Alone
Twister: No dude, with Lars remember, we followed them
Otto: Twister!
Reggie: Chill I knew but don't worry Lars is just a big jerk who knows what
to say when he's in trouble
Twister: Told you it was about the grade bro
Otto: she didn't say that
Twister: Oh well let's hang out I'm bored everyone is all paired it's so
gross
Otto: We're not
Reggie: You two have always been paired
Twister: Well let me tell you its not fun hanging out with just Otto for 12
hours a day for 2 weeks
Otto: there are 24 hours in a day
Twister: Oh man you know that too now you'll be sleeping over every night.
It's like one of those marathons and next is Otto and after that Otto and
then...Otto Ahh I'm going crazy
Otto: I thought you liked me
Twister: I do (He smiles) think about what would happen if I didn't
Otto: (Rolls his eyes) so hang with us Reg
Reggie: I can't I have to rest until Saturday
Otto: That only means one thing
Twister: Otto Moviethon at my house next up is Otto followed by Otto and
then more Otto
Reggie: Wait I thought you said that was a bad thing
Twister: Oh yeah well when you're watch Otto on TV you can hit him with
those sticky darts and he wouldn't womp you
Reggie: (Laughs) Okay I'll come but I want my own dart gun
Otto: Hey lets watch Twister instead then
Twister: Sorry bro I can't tape myself (They head towards Twister's house)
(At Twister Reggie and Twister have dart guns and there are darts all over
the TV screen Otto groans he likes watching himself but not when Twister is
throwing darts at him. He stands up for the third time and removes the
darts)
Otto: No more please
Twister: No this is fun
Otto: Guys this is cruel
Reggie: Otto it's not personal you're just a camera hog
(Lars walks in and stands in front of the TV)
Twister: Yes and the problem this time would be
Lars: What shoes (Twister looks at his shoes they look almost the same
except for the logo)
Reggie: You're a lame-o (She hits him with a dart Otto and Twister gasp)
Lars: Reggie! I should womp you
Reggie: Can't! Can you? or your little grade will go down the drain?
Lars: Urggh forget about the grade the shoes
Twister: The left one
Lars: You're left or mine
Twister: mine now move
Reggie: Jerk (She says as Lars leaves)
Lars: Urggh! (They hear him say)
Otto: That was sweet Reg what happened
Reggie: That jerk was using me to get him a good grade
Twister: Told you so (he hits the TV Otto with a dart)
Otto: Oh man I'm sorry Reg but I did say he was a Jerk (Twister hits the TV
Otto with a dart)
Reggie: I know Otto, but it's cool. I still have you guys (Twister hits
Otto with a dart)
Otto: Twister!
Twister: Opps I forgot which one was the real you Otto
Otto: The one with three sides! (He jumps at Twister and it fades to the
next day)
(Lars is at his game he dominates the field and the other team's coach has
noticed and they are all over Lars three guys are on him, but he still
manages to score with the help of his team. It is 16-0 at half time it's
the highest scoring game in the schools record the Coach huddles them in
for a talk.)
Coach: You guys are doing great out there just keep it up
Chris: yeah let's win this and we'll go to the State competition (he puts
his hand in the circle and the other guys and the coach follow then
everyone looks at Lars who has not put his hand in. He has glanced at the
clock again) Lars
Lars: Oh right let's uh...I have to go
Coach: You have to what
Lars: I have to go I have something important to do
Coach: What's more important then soccer
Lars: I got to go you guys can do it I know you can they're all over me so
if I'm not in there it will surprise them so much they wouldn't know what
to do and we're up high enough you can't lose now I have to go
Coach: But Lars
Lars: I have to go (He runs out towards the beach)
Coach: Okay umm...Mike you're in
Mike: Yes, Yes Mom, and Dad always come and this is the first time I'm
playing
Coach: All right guys, good luck you'll need it (It fades out)
(To Reggie she waits for the race to start next to Twister and Otto)
Otto: You can beat them Reg
Twister: Yeah although Trish trained hard and Sherry is awesome you'll
still win
Otto: Nice Twist
Reggie: I know I'll do fine where Sam is
Otto: With Trish he was over here but then Trish came over and asked him
what he was doing rooting for some one else he was suppose to be Trish's
biggest fan Sam tried to explain that it was just a assignment but Trish
wouldn't listen
Twister: Where is Sam's on button I'm hot
Otto: Twister!
Twister: Just kidding bro
(A Judge blows a whistle)
Judge: race will start in five minutes
Reggie: Later guys (She heads to the start line and stretches out)
Otto: I hope she trained hard enough
Lars: Oh she did (He says come up from behind them Twister and Otto jump)
Twister: You're here
Lars: Yeah I'm here
Twister: To watch Reg so you lied about lying
Lars: I guess so am I too late to wish her luck
Otto: Of course, you are (He glares)
Twister: I don't think so Reggie! Reggie!
Lars: It's cool Twist
Twister: Reggie! (Reggie looks up and walks over)
Reggie: You okay
Twister: Yeah
Lars: Good Luck Wife
Reggie: Lars! What about Soccer
Lars: No one was there to watch me win
Reggie: So you left
Lars: Yup at half time 16-0 us I thought they could handle it
Reggie: Cool thanks for coming coach
Otto: Reggie! Are you racing or talking?
Reggie: Later (She runs to the starting line)
(Afterwards at the Shack there is a celebration for Reggie she hadn't just
won, she creamed them. Lars hung around for a while and then went on to
the boardwalk and looked over at the Ocean. Inside Otto, Twister, and Sam
were still doing their victory dance on the counter)
Sam, Otto, and Twister: Go Reggie Go Reggie it's your birthday it's your
birthday
Reggie: Guys stop
Sam: (Sits on the counter) Reggie that was so awesome you creamed them I
knew you would (He looks towards Trish) I mean it was okay, I've seen
umm...better
Reggie: Thanks Sammie
Twister: Yeah you were like fast almost as fast as a turtle
Reggie: Thanks Twister I think
Otto: I couldn't have done it better well I could have, I mean I'm Otto I'm
the best
Reggie: right Otto thanks
Otto: No problem
Trish: You really did awesome Reg (Trish says walking up) I didn't even
think you had a chance at beating me. I'm glad you beat me you deserved it
you must have practiced for weeks
Reggie: Not really I just had an awesome Coach who isn't here at the moment
(She looks around) I'll be back (She heads out) what's up Coach
Lars: Oh hey Reggie (He says as she walks up to him she gazes to the ocean
as well)
Reggie: Thanks for showing
Lars: No sweat Reg. It was worth it
Reggie: Yeah you know if you go to your state thing Saturday I'll come and
watch
Lars: You're serious (he looks at her)
Reggie: yup
Lars: but Reg it's a tournament
Reggie: And?
Lars: Like a Hockey tournament 8 teams go in one comes out that's 7 games
Reggie: I'll come
Lars: Thanks Reg I'm sorry I said those things
Reggie: You didn't mean it
Lars: Yeah well I said them I just I didn't mean it
Reggie: Well I did mean to throw that dart at you but I'm sorry too
Lars: we call it even
Reggie: Okay come back to the party
Lars: Nah I'm going home. Congratulations though you deserve it
(Reggie felt that that might have been the single most rewarding thing
anyone had said to her all night everyone else had meant to say that but it
just didn't come out that way. Reggie smiled she thought that is must be
good to be on Lars' good side)
(The next Monday on the way home from school)
Sam: so nothing new on your assignment thing
Reggie: Nope
Sam: Oh well Trish moved us closer to Sherry so I lost my job now I have to
be a computer...
Reggie: Saturday I'm going to the school Soccer tournament you want to come
with me
Sam: You are why?
Reggie: Lars came to root me on I'm going to root him on
Sam: Count me out
Reggie: Sam Lars told me that no one ever came to see him play
Sam: No wonder Reg Lars is the most feared guy in Ocean Shores every kid is
afraid of him and most adults are the only people who aren't are his
parents, and Mackenzie
Reggie: I'm not Lars is sweet once you're on his good side
Sam: Well getting there is murder so I wouldn't risk it and please don't
use Lars and sweet in the same sentence unless you're talking about sweet
revenge
(Otto and Twister skate up)
Twister: What's up?
Sam: Nothing much I moved
Twister: Oh no where!
Sam: not in real life
Otto: Oh that's good
Reggie: Twister, will you go with me Saturday
Twister: Where?
Reggie: To the soccer games to cheer on your brother, he says you've never
been to any of his games I think he'd like it if you came
Twister: Like it?
Otto: Or womp you think Twister you owe him nothing but a black eye
Twister: Otto's right Reg I don't
Reggie: Awe come on maybe he'll lay off
Twister: Sorry Reg I can't I wouldn't and unlike Otto, you can't talk me
into it
Reggie: Fine, I'll just go alone
Otto: Why
Reggie: He came to watch me
Otto: So
Reggie: So that's why (She walks away)
Otto: Oh that jerk Reggie's my sister
Twister: Mine too and don't worry this could be a good thing
Otto: How
Sam: Yeah explain
Twister: Lars has eased up
Sam: Huh?
Twister: when we were following them he almost womped those kids who poured
water on him Reggie stopped him, Reggie got him to ditch his soccer game to
see her compete if Lars is busy with Reg he can't be busy womping us.
Besides what harm can they do?
Otto: That's right! Say hello to a Lars free zone
Sam: Don't push it Otto Reggie can only do so much
Otto: Okay
Sam: I got to go Trish want to go Urggh Shopping at the mall with Sherry
and Trent later (He leaves)
Otto: You know this marriage thing could be a good thing Madtown is empty.
All JR. High kids no Lars this is starting to look good
Twister: I know and Reggie's my sister
Otto: thanks for spoiling the moment
(Reggie was heading to the Shack after telling Otto that she was going when
she noticed Lars who seemed not to notice her at all. It was as if he was
deep in thought about something so deep that he nearly crashed into
everyone he past, Reggie grabs him as he passes by)
Reggie: What is wrong Lars?
Lars: Reg (He jumps he looks around like he had no idea where he was) did
we plan to meet
Reggie: Nope I just say you skating what's wrong you look worried
Lars: It's well uh nothing I can't tell you
Reggie: Of course, you can
Lars: No
Reggie: Well okay you want to hang out
Lars: Sure I was well I was going to go mountain boarding I have no idea
how I got here
Reggie: You skated but lets ride bikes instead come on (She leads him home
to grab their stuff the head out toward the forest behind their houses) So
I tried to get Twister to come with me on Saturday he said no
Lars: That's not a surprise (He sighs)
Reggie: Twister bugging you
Lars: Sort of I just no Reg I said I couldn't tell you
Reggie: Come on I'll weasel it out of you anyway, just spill (Lars stops)
Lars: Okay, it's Twister I just want him to like me. Well maybe not even
like me but to look up to me
Reggie: But Lars he does (She stops next to him)
Lars: No he doesn't. He hates me
Reggie: I'm serious Lars he admires you more then any brother, and more
then he should. A month ago you told him that he was a good brother and he
went crazy we couldn't get him to keep quite about it for weeks.
Lars: Really?
Reggie: Lars you have a big impact on Twister when you're in bad way so is
he and when you're cool he is super cool
Lars: I didn't know that
Reggie: Of course not
Lars: Wait I never said that I said that at least I my brother wasn't as
bad as Otto and I wasn't even talking to him
Reggie: Well to him you gave him the best compliment
Lars: How
Reggie: Well Otto's always been better then him, and to be a better brother
then Otto well that's almost like calling Twister a god. See all you have
to do is slip a compliment into everyday conversation and you'll make his
week
Lars: Thanks Reg I can do that I think
Reggie: Just don't scare him by saying too many things at once
Lars: Okay sounds good
(Late that night as Lars, Twister, Sandy, and Raoul eat dinner.)
Sandy: So what did you boys do today?
Lars: Well...I was skating Madtown (He lies) and this guy comes up and nearly
makes me trip so I was all going to bust on him. He said he was all, sorry
he was just excited because he won this contest. I asked him which and he
was like a sandcastle contest what a freak I thought. But then I told him
that my little brother could make a better sandcastle then him so the next
time he won one of those things he might think twice about cutting me off.
Sandy: Oh that's nice (Twister's mouth drops open) chew your food Maurice
we don't want to look at it
Twister: You really said that
Lars: Or something like it
Twister: Cool
Lars: Yeah you should have seen him run
Raoul: Now Lars was that nice
Lars: No sir
Raoul: What did we say about picking on the little kids?
Lars: Don't, sir
Raoul: That's better
Sandy: Mi Hermona called today. She said we should visit her Saturday
Raoul: That sounds good
Lars: I have a State Soccer game
Raoul: Well you can stay here we will go
Lars: Yeah okay (He frowns and goes back to eating)
Twister: Maybe I could stay here with the Rockets
Raoul: Maurice this is your family
Sandy: Scottie said he was excited about seeing his favorite cousin
Twister: Oh (he rolls his eyes) could I go to Lars' game he's family!
Lars: Serious I mean it would be cool of you
Sandy: I don't know he was looking forward to it
Twister: But Lars is my brother and Scottie's just my cousin
Raoul: If the boys want to hang out
Sandy: All right then
Twister: Later Mom I have to call Reggie (He leaves) yes out of Scottie
duty
Lars: I get it (he mumbles standing up and clearing the table)
(In Twister's room Twister is talking to Reggie)
Reggie: So you're coming that's cool Twister
Twister: I had to I didn't want to see Scottie
Reggie: So you're not going because you want to
Twister: Well kinda Lars told this guy today that I was the best sandcastle
builder on the planet
Reggie: he said that
Twister: yup cool huh
Reggie: Yeah sweet
Twister: Yeah, see you tomorrow Reg (he hangs up and quickly falls asleep)
(The next day, after school Reggie, Sam, and Otto are hanging out at the
Shack)
Sam: I am so glad Trish just wanted to hang with Sherry
Otto: Me too the four amigos together
Reggie: Four? Otto I think you didn't count right
Otto: Yeah where's Twister
(Eddie skates in)
Eddie: Otto master of the skateboard, and the hockey stick I was sent to
fetch you
Otto: Ok Fido but what's up?
Eddie: It's the Twisted one he's doing something Gnarly at the beach
Reggie: Twister Gnarly
Eddie: Come the kids sent me to retrieve you
Sam: Coming
Otto: Is Eddie, part dog
Reggie: Otto (They follow Eddie out to the beach. Twister was in a trance
building a sandcastle)
Otto: What in the name of all skateboards are you doing
Twister: Oh hey guys I'm making a sandcastle
Sam: what's that?
Twister: Oh that's a town's person's hut and this is a town's person. This
is the castle where the king lives
Reggie: King Lars?
Twister: No King Fredrick
Otto: Fredrick?
Twister: Short for Freddie
Sam: Twister it looks like you build a medieval city
Twister: No, no it's from the enlighten period see, see I made sure
Reggie: So (She laughs)
Otto: What's so funny? And why are you doing this
Twister: Lars said I was an awesome Sandcastle
Reggie: The way you said it last night he called you the best in the world
Twister: So he did
Sam: Twister we were going to go surfing
Twister: Go I have to finish the baby's room in the castle
Reggie: Okay have fun we'll be ripping it in the water
Otto: You know (They head towards the water) I really hate Lars even when
he's nice its annoying Twister isn't going to stop building sandcastle for
weeks
Reggie: Yeah but its kind of sweet if I said you were an awesome
snowboarder what would you do
Otto: Of course, I am Reg is there a question
Reggie: Urggh
Sam: I don't think it's healthy for Twister to do this
Reggie: Sure it is
(Back to Twister who is working hard some kids gawk they can't understand
it how could one person do this just then a shadow falls on Twister)
Twister: (Looks up) Ahh!
Pi: Nice to see you too
Sputz: You messed up the beach bad bro
Twister: Messed it up?
Pi: What's with the sandmen?
Twister: pretty cool huh I'm the best
Pi: Watch I have something to show you (Twister watches as Pi kicks the
main castle)
Twister: Hey, look what you did!
Sputz: Look what I did (He points to the crumbled village)
Twister: You ruined it now it's just
Pi: Dirt like what you live in you worm
Sputz: Worm that's a good one Pi (Twister tears and then runs off)
Reggie: Hey that was so not cool
Pi: What do you care?
Otto: You messed with our bro
Sputz: Oh sorry
Pi: What are you going to do about it shrimp?
Sam: well nothing really
Reggie: Lars wouldn't like this
Pi: What are you talking about Rocket busting on little worms is what we
do?
Reggie: Not when the Worms Twister
Sputz: We're just not allowed to womp him
Otto: Reggie what are you doing?
Pi: Do you have a problem with it Rocket? (He glares at Reggie)
Reggie: Guys chill I'm just saying
Pi: You're asking for a knuckle sandwich
Lars: What are you guys doing?
Sam: Ahh!
Pi: Well see that Twisted punk was here and he was building this sand thing
Sputz: Like a freak
Otto: So they kicked it down
Reggie: And called Twister a worm
Lars: Okay so umm...
Reggie: Lars he made the sandcastle for you and your lame-O friends messed
it up
Lars: Oh...wait, what am I suppose to do about that it's ruined
Pi: Yeah, cool huh
Lars: Urggh Pi just chill for a second where did Twister go?
Sputz: I don't know
Otto: I know lets surf
Reggie: Otto!
Sam: Sounds good to me come on Reggie
Lars: Let's go too
Reggie: What about Twister?
Pi: What about him?
Lars: Deal with that later, now I have to show Otto whose king of those
waves (The guys run out)
Reggie: Urggh, boys (She heads out and passes Lars heading back in) What
are you doing?
Lars: I can't let them know I'm being nice to Twister keep my guys
distracted Wife Later
Reggie: Yeah later. (He paddles back) Hey Boys can you keep up
Otto: You're so on
(To Lars who's looking for Twister he almost gave up when he tripped over
him)
Twister: Lars! (He looks sad)
Lars: Twister (He glares)
Twister: I didn't mean to be in your way
Lars: You okay?
Twister: No I made this cool thing for some one cause I knew he liked it
but some guys ruined it now it's nothing but dirt
Lars: What did you make?
Twister: a Sandcastle
Lars: Make a different one
Twister: no they'll just mess it up again and it was too much work
Lars: here I'll help you
Twister: Really
Lars: are you really going to my soccer game?
Twister: Yeah
Lars: Then there's your answer
Twister: Cool
Lars: So show me how I've never done this
Twister: Okay (So they build a sandcastle not as good as the other but some
how better just then Reggie, Otto, Sam, Pi and Sputz walks up)
Pi: What's up with this bro?
Lars: Hey umm... (He takes his bucket of Sand and pours over Twister's head)
Twister: Hey (He jumps)
Lars: Haha got you bro
Sputz: Nice one
Twister: (Spits out sand) Thanks bro
Lars: No sweat
Reggie: Real nice guys I like this castle
Pi: me too, but its missing the footprint (he picks his foot up)
Lars: No you don't (He pushes him and he falls being on one foot)
Sputz: What was that about?
Lars: Uh (He takes a bucket of sand) I decided that it was Twister day and
since you're all Twister I have to mess with you
Pi: Oh great not again (He stands up and runs Lars chases after Pi and
Sputz)
Twister: Twister day!
Otto: Again
Sam: I suppose Lars gets bored easily and so he makes it Twister day to
pull pranks on his bros
Reggie: Makes sense to me
Otto: Look I'm Twister and I have no brain cells
Reggie: Look I'm Twister and I lost my hat
Sam: No wait I'm Twister and I uh...wait I forgot
Twister: Hey wait I was, Twister remember you guys can't be Twister too
Otto: Let's hit the shack for Grindage I need a fish taco
Twister: Hey you don't like fish tacos (The gang walks away acting like
Twister) Stop it guys I'm serious (he catches up to them and it fades out)
(The next day after school Twister is on the Rocket's half pipe Otto went
inside for some Grindage and Reggie walked over from Twister's house she
had been practicing guitars with Lars)
Reggie: Hey Twistamond-O
Twister: Reggie what's up?
Reggie: You know Twist you're not suppose to be at some ones house when
they're not
Twister: Otto just went inside Reg and plus I'm not inside I'm out and plus
I'm family you're my sister
Reggie: Right so you're really going Saturday right?
Twister: I wasn't but well Lars was cool to me yesterday so yeah I'll be
there
Reggie: You know I've seen him practice he's their best player
Twister: Really, he doesn't talk about it much
Reggie: Have you asked him?
Twister: Well no but what if he tries to womp me?
Reggie: Twister every time you get womped for asking him something it's
because you want something but if you asked him about something that he
liked something he was good at I think you'd find he'd be less likely even
to raise a fist
Twister: Well I don't...
Reggie: (Interrupts) don't you think its sort of sad that no ones ever been
to one of his games. I mean he's there best player and no one not his
friends, his parents, or his brother has even gone to see him play. Even
players who never set foot on the field in a game have their parents there
for every game. I kinda of feel sorry for the guy, no one even cares about
him enough to see him in one game. How can some live like think that no
one cares about him that he's not wanted, if it was me I'd quit but not
Lars. Instead of doing things for other people he does it for himself and
he's the best player on the team. What if he was doing this for some one
what would he be, the best in California. Think how awsome he'd be if he
had one person to cheer him on if he's that awesome with one what would
happen if more people came. I can't even beginning to image it. I still
feel sorry for him cause even if he wins it will never feel great because
there would be anyone there to tell him how amazing he is. (Reggie walks
away shaking her head)
Twister: (Stops skating a the top of the pipe. He sits down and beginnings
to think about that what if no one ever came to see him play it would be a
nightmare. He'd never be able to handle it. He began to fell sorry for
his brother who had no one and Twister had everyone) Por' Lars
Otto: Ha poor Lars (He comes out) Are you crazy
Twister: Otto you think Lars gets sad because no one goes to his soccer
games
Otto: Twister this is Lars remember you don't owe him anything. He never
goes to your things and remember he has Reggie going
Twister: Oh yeah I forgot lets skate
Otto: That's better
(It fades out to later that night Lars is in conversation with Clio. Lars
is in his room so no one can hear)
Lars: So I apologized to her for being a jerk and you know what happened
she forgave me it was amazing. She's coming to my soccer game I'm really
excited about it and maybe a little nervous. Oh She came over today and we
spent the whole time playing our guitars. She's amazing I didn't know she
was that good she taught me this song,
Hast Du etwas Zeit für mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Denkst Du vielleicht grad' an mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Und daß sowas von sowas kommt
99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Hielt man für UFOs aus dem All
Darum schickte ein General
'ne Fliegerstaffel hinterher
Alarm zu geben, wenn's so wär
Dabei war'n da am Horizont
Nur 99 Luftballons
99 Düsenflieger
Jeder war ein großer Krieger
Hielten sich für Captain Kirk
Das gab ein großes Feuerwerk
Die Nachbarn haben nichts gerafft
Und fühlten sich gleich angemacht
Dabei schoß man am Horizont
Auf 99 Luftballons
99 Kriegsminister
Streichholz und Benzinkanister
Hielten sich für schlaue Leute
Witterten schon fette Beute
Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht
Mann, wer hätte das gedacht
Daß es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 Luftballons
99 Jahre Krieg
Ließen keinen Platz für Sieger
Kriegsminister gibt's nicht mehr
Und auch keine Düsenflieger
Heute zieh ich meine Runden
Seh' die Welt in Trümmern liegen
Hab' 'nen Luftballon gefunden
Denk' an Dich und laß' ihn fliegen (99 red balloons German)
Clio: Lars this is amazing
Lars: What? (he questions with his eyes even though she couldn't see him)
Clio: You like her
Lars: Clio I told you we were friends
Clio: No Lars you're crushing on her
Lars: Reggie! Its not possible Clio
Clio: Lars it is possible and its true. You just spend the last two hours
telling me about her and I just called to ask you what the weather was like
for when I come for thanksgiving in a couple of weeks. I know you Lars you
don't talk that much and not about one person.
Lars: Reggie, no Clio I don't I can't its not p-possible
Clio: Well Lars I say you do, just open your eyes because apparantly your
hearts seen what your eyes, don't or can't your heart sees the not
possible, believe me Lars I didn't think it was possible that that black
coal heart of yours could have any room to Love anyone but you're showing
the signs man
Lars: Clio if you say anything to anyone
Clio: I'm zipped up and besides no ones going to believe it lover boy later
Lars: Yeah later (They hang up and Lars walks out of his room passing
Twister's room on the way to the kitchen)
Twister: Clean up Maurice that's all they ever tell me. Don't you need to
clean your room (Lars walks in Twister doesn't notice until he goes over
picking up clothes) I thought I put my shoes away (He grabs them and tries
to lift) Ahhh my shoes grew feet
Lars: Hey Twist
Twister: Ahhh my shoes grew a Lars
Lars: These are my shoes and you're over due
Twister: No bro I have to c-clean
Lars: Yup (He grabs Twister and clenches his fist)
Twister: I'll do anything, I'll give you my skateboard, my room, please.
Lars: Say your prayers
Twister: Oh man (Then it hits Twister shakily says) Can I have a last
question?
Lars: Go on
Twister: When you play soccer do you ever trip over the ball?
Lars: Only if I'm you, Twister only Lame-os trip over the ball
Twister: Right how many positions are there?
Lars: Ten and a goalie what are you getting at
Twister: What position do you play?
Lars: Center, sometimes I'll play the wings why
Twister: I want to know when I go and see you play Saturday
Lars: You're coming? (He lets Twister go)
Twister: Yeah so what does the Center do exactly?
Lars: (Looks Twister over surprised) Do you really want to know?
Twister: Yeah and what do those other things do?
Lars: Come on I'll show you (Lars leads Twister into his room and pulls out
a pad of paper and then sits on the floor and leans against his bed Twister
sits next to him but not too close. Lars begins to draw a soccer field
putting the different position on there) This is the center I can go any
where right along with the wings they are all forward positions meaning
there in the front
Twister: I can't see
Lars: Move closer braincase. Ok they're all called forwards or Strikers.
Now these are the middle fielders, they can't cross the midpoint in the
field understand they there to stop the other forwards from getting to the
goal understand? Now these are the defenders they all have special names
like the stopper they have to they support the midfielders while protecting
the goal and try to keep me away from the goal. These are the fullbacks
they make the defense zones they defend the goal from the center and the
wings. The sweeper stands here and protects the goalie. Now you know what
a goalie does right?
Twister: Yup, what kind of plays do you do? Do you have to wear a helmet?
How come none of these guys have skates?
Lars: No you don't have to wear a helmet its soccer not hockey we don't
have skates. Here look this is a play (he starts drawing arrows all over
the page) I go here and then here and pass to him and then
Twister: Where is your stick?
Lars: You pass with your feet no one can touch the ball while it's in play
unless it's the goalie
Twister: Oh Lars what's that?
Lars: Oh that's the stands
Twister: Oh where are all the screaming fans?
Lars: Well...I...I don't have fans Twister (He says quickly)
Twister: Oh does it make you sad
Lars: Sad?
Twister: That you don't have any fans?
Lars: Well...That's a dumb question Twister I don't get sad you should know
that if you're going to be stupid you're going to have to leave
Twister: No Lars I want to hear more about this sport before Saturday.
Lars: Okay this is... (They go on until Twister falls asleep on Lars at two
in the morning)
(The next day at school)
Lars: There is no (Yawn) way. I don't like her (He looks down the hall
where Reggie was with her friends) No way, I don't like her, not her or her
smile, or how she makes me laugh or (he shakes it off as she comes by) Hey
R-Reggie
Reggie: Lars I'm so excited about Saturday, but there sort a problem
Lars: Of course (He frowns)
Reggie: I just need you to tell Ray its cool he doesn't want me there alone
and if you're there then he'll chill
Lars: How do I do that?
Reggie: Today after school come to the Shack ok
Lars: I (Yawns as he says) can do
Reggie: You look thrashed
Lars: Yeah I'm exhausted Twister spent the whole night wanting me to
explain the whole of the game of Soccer to him
Reggie: Wasn't his way of getting out of a womping was it (She grins a
little)
Lars: Uh (He starts) actually he did get out of my womping but whatever it
was still cool of him. Personal I think he'd rather have the few minutes
of pain then the hours I spent confusing him
Reggie: (Laughs) Sounds like you might be getting along
Lars: Reggie, quiet will you. What if people heard you?
Reggie: Sorry (The bell rings) I'll see you in 5th period then later (She
waves as she walks away)
Lars: (gets a weird feeling) No, you don't like her (He heads to class)
