MISS PERKY:
Katarina Stratford. My, my. You've
been terrorizing Ms. Blaise again.
KAT:
Expressing my opinion is not a
terrorist action.
MISS PERKY:
Well, yes, compared to your other
choices of expression this year, today's
events are quite mild. By the way,
Bobby Rictor's gonad retrieval operation
went quite well, in case you're
interested.
KAT:
I still maintain that he kicked himself
in the balls. I was merely a spectator.
MISS PERKY:
The point is Kat -- people perceive you
as somewhat ...
Kat smiles at her, daring her to say it.
KAT:
Tempestuous?
MISS PERKY:
No ... I believe "heinous b*tch" is the
term used most often.
She grimaces, as if she's referring to a medical condition.
MISS PERKY:
(continuing)
You might want to work on that
Kat rises from her chair with a plastic smile matching the
counselor's.
KAT:
As always, thank you for your excellent
guidance.
INT. SOPHOMORE ENGLISH CLASS - DAY
Bianca ignores the droning teacher as she writes a note in
big flowing handwriting.
TEACHER (0.S.)
Shakespeare makes him a bit daunting,
but I'm sure you're all doing your best.
Bianca folds the note and passes it behind her with a flip
of her hair to CHASTITY. Chastity opens the note and reads:
INSERT - "JOEY DORSEY SAID HI TO ME IN THE HALL! OH! MY
GOD!"
Chastity frowns to herself.
TEACHER (0.S.)
(continuing)
Ms. Stratford, do you care to comment
on what you've read so far?
Bianca looks up and smiles the smile of Daddy's little girl.
BIANCA:
Not really.
The teacher shakes her head, but lets it go.
MANDELLA. a waif-like senior girl who sits off to the side
trying to slit her wrist with the plastic spiral on her
notebook, looks up and raises her hand.
TEACHER:
Mandella -- since you're assisting us,
you might as well comment. I'm assuming
you read the assignment.
MANDELLA:
Uh, yeah, I read it all
TEACHER:
The whole play^
MANDELIA:
The whole folio. All the plays.
TEACHER:
(disbelieving)
You've read every play by William
Shakespeare?
MANDELLA:
Haven't you?
She raises a challenging eyebrow. The stunned teacher
doesn't answer and goes to call on the next student.
EXT. SCHOOL COURTYARD - DAY
Mandella and Kat sit down in the quiet corner. They are
eating a carton of yogurt with gusto.
MANDELLA:
Your sister is so amazingly without. She'll never read him.
She has no idea.
Kat attacks
KAT:
The fact that you're cutting gym so you
can T.A. Sophomore English just to hear
his name, is a little without in itself
if you ask me.
Kat's attention is caught by Patrick as he walks by with his
friends, lighting up a cigarette. Mandella notices her
staring.
MANDELLA:
Who's that?
KAT:
Patrick Verona Random skid.
MANDELLA:
That's Pat Verona? The one who was gone
for a year? I heard he was doing porn
movies.
KAT:
I'm sure he's completely incapable of
doing anything that interesting.
MANDELLA:
He always look so
KAT:
Block E?
Kat turns back to face Mandella and forces her yogurt into
Mandella's hand.
KAT:
(continuing)
Mandella, eat. Starving yourself is a
very slow way to die.
MANDELLA:
Just a little.
She eats. Kat sees her wrist
KAT:
What's this?
MANDELLA:
An attempted slit.
Kat stares at her, expressionless.
KAT:
I realize that the men of this fine
institution are severely lacking, but
killing yourself so you can be with
William Shakespeare is beyond the scope
of normal teenage obsessions. You're
venturing far past daytime talk show
fodder and entering the world of those
who need very expensive therapy.
MANDELLA:
But imagine the things he'd say during
