Beware the Gonzo Page #5
ended up in jail because of it
And now it's all of our responsibility
to spread the word, okay!
Are you with us, brother?
That's what I'm talking about.
We got 97 signatures.
Roy's gotta know how we feel, man.
No justice, no peace!
Who said the revolution wouldn't be televised?
Now that's what I call lunch.
- Are you watching it?
It's insane.
27 code violations in this school's cafeteria
but Principal Roy still refuses to comment.
It's insane.
27 code violations in this school's cafeteria
but Principal Roy still refuses to comment.
We'll be making a full statement.
We're not gonna do it in the parking lot.
Meanwhile Gonzo Gilman is sweating out the 4th day
of a week-long suspension that many feel is unjust.
The question must be asked.
Is the wrong person being punished here?
Does Parker Prep even have the right to censor him?
This is Charlie Ronald for New York Free News.
On the streets and in your face.
Charlie Ronald is your old college buddy.
You made him do this, didn't you?
You know how Eddie gets carried away.
You're just setting him up for a fall.
-I know your early decision at Brown, Evie.
But check this out.
The dean from Columbia finally wrote me back.
He's impressed with my stuff and
apparently, I'm on the shortlist.
I know, it's huge.
Dean f***in Herbert on the Gonzo
Who says he's gonna fall?
Come back and see us again.
I sing on Thursdays.
That's a good cup of coffee.
Busy day, huh?
Just like the old days before McDonald's
You couldn't get a table in this place.
This whole Gonzo thing must be good for you, huh?
Saved my business. I'll tell you that.
For now anyway.
Cuts both ways, doesn't it?
- What do you mean?
- You are his biggest advertiser,right?
First advertiser too.
I'm the one that got the whole ball rolling.
You see?
He couldn't do it without you.
I'll say you have.
We're open in the backroom
We're gonna have a big party.
Why don't you come.
Saturday night?
- Yeah. It'll be fun.
Is Gonzo here? He's coming, right?
He said he was coming but
he's grounded so who knows.
Hey, dude!
We got Gonzo
30 seconds to stage.
Alright Melnick.
Get his ass off the stage!
Ladies and gentlemen,
the moment you've all been waiting for.
My man, the freedom fighter from Parker Prep.
Give it up for Gonzo Gilman!
My people!
What schools, and police and governments
fail to realize
is that we've got the power!
You know what's a damn shame
is when we forget that too.
You know what I'm seeing right now?
I'm seeing that we're starting to realize.
Do you see that?
Do you see what we can do?
You gonna print another issue?
What do you think?
I'm from North. He's from Central.
She's from GW.
We wanna go Gonzo on our schools too.
We wanna really blow some sh*t up that way.
Right on. We can just send you the lay-outs.
All you have to do is pull 'em out.
Just tell the truth, brothers and sisters.
That's all I ask.
Even if the truth hurts.
What's up, Gilman?
Riley?
I came to congratulate you, man.
You had an idea. You followed it through.
And it worked.
That's pretty cool, man.
Uh...Thanks, man.
Our humble little paper is coming out on Monday.
It's not the Gonzo but
There's a really interesting article in there
Okay.
Evie.
Evie Wallace!
You are glowing.
For both of you.
Monday.
We should get outta here, right?
This party's totally dying down.
We can go back to my place. My parents are gone.
After after party. Just the staff.
Yeah. Rally the troops.
You know, I've been working it
-I think tonight it's finally going down.
-What?
Every man's fantasy
You know what the French call "eating for three?"
Robbie ...
I'll be right there.
Oh sweet Jesus, no.
- Oh yes.
Pretty nervous.
It's my first time but
I put my camera in there, I set it up
so I'm just gonna film myself and
watch it later and see how I did.
-Hey, I'll s how it to you if you want.
-Oh no. That's really okay.
Wish me luck, man.
Prayin for you.
-Let's hope there's enough of me to go around, right?
-Yeah.
Are you a virgin?
What?
Have you ever had sex?
We're just really divin in there, aren't we?
Remember Elizabeth Frankel?
She moved away last year. She's in our grade.
We've been best friends since elementary school.
We made this pact to get it over with.
How was it?
Embarrassing...if truth be told.
There I was humping away
Thought I was doing great.
Really thought I was championing that sex
see how she was liking it...
She had this confused,
sorrowful look on her face
Turns out my dick was actually
caught in her comforter.
- Get out!
- I won't.
It was a really soft and satiny comforter.
Anyway, then we finally got it in for real
You know that whole awkward dance
Just really trying to keep my flag flying
Finally she gets into it
and she starts moving around and
It was over in like
Ten seconds...Seven seconds.
Yup. I was a real pleasure machine that night.
What about you?
You ever do it?
Evie, c'mon. I told you mine.
You gotta tell me yours.
- Law of reciprocation.
- Oh really, I didn't realize there are laws involved here.
Well now you know.
It's not a good story.
I think you brought it up because
Evie, my first time was with a blanket.
Gonzo! Are you up there?
I need water!
Let's get some air.
Last year, I had to take this science
class with Riley.
And I had this mad crush on him
like all the girls.
And I was trying to flirt with him and everything
Finally he invited me to this really cool party
And I wore this little dress
And I got really drunk
It was stupid but
I was just really nervous, y'know.
Anyway, I wind up losing my virginity to the guy...
Which was okay.
It was sort of what I wanted.
But it turned into this total nightmare.
I was so messed up that
I didn't notice his jock buddies
And after he was finished
This other guy tried to get in on me
I had to fight him off
I was crying. I was trying to get my clothes on.
I was trying to get out of the house.
It was horrible.
He didn't defend me or anything
He laughed
He totally disputes it at school the next day
and all these rumors started that
I did the whole wrestling team.
He ruined my life.
Son of a b*tch.
Ever since then not only
have I not had a boyfriend
I really don't have anybody.
Just sort of shut down, I guess.
Evie, listen...
Not everybody in this world
is an a**hole like Gavin Riley.
I'm not.
I know.
-Let's go slow, okay.
- Yeah
Eddie! Breakfast!
Hey Mr. Sandman, get up! Get up!
Gilman!
You need a life.
- Gonzo, is it true?
- Did you really do it, Gonzo?
Do what?
- What the hell?
