EXT. HAMILTON POOL

Mike Damone yells "banzai!" and dives into the

small pool. At one end of the pool is the jacuzzi,

which is separated by a tile wall. Damone has

already poured the Wisk into the jacuzzi, and the

detergent has created a huge bubble bath effect.

Damone surfaces and flips into the jacuzzi.

Stacy, looking great in a green bikini, sits

kicking her legs by the side of the pool. Linda

stands on the board. She is poised to dive. The Rat

treads water and stares at both girls. Inside the

Hamilton living room, the family stereo plays the

music of Deep Purple's "Woman From Tokyo".

DAMONE:

Hey, Linda! I'll judge your dive.

I'm a champion diver myself.

Brad arrives home by the side gate and slams it

behind him. He is home from a bad day at work. He

walks out onto the patio and stands with his hands

on his hips. For the first time, our former campus

hero looks absurd. He is still in his uniform from

Captain Kidd Fish and Chips -- it is a blue and

white striped Pirates of the Caribbean outfit,

complete with black plastic sword at the side, and

a ridiculously large Ponce de Leon-esque hat. Brad

carries the hat under his arm.

BRAD:

Does Mom know you have company?

STACY:

It's just Linda. And Mark from

school.

Brad ignores the underclassmen, and notices Linda

on the board in her maroon bikini. He smiles.

BRAD:

Hi, Linda.

LINDA:

Hi, Brad.

BRAD:

Well, you guys, keep it down. I've

got some work to do upstairs.

Brad turns and heads back inside. He is just out of

earshot when they begin talking about him.

LINDA:

God, he hardly even talks anymore.

STACY:

I know. He hates to have to wear

uniforms.

DAMONE:

Poor guy.

THE RAT:

Really.

Stacy breaks the spell by jumping into the water,

surfacing, and flipping over the tile wall into the

Jacuzzi. She sits next to Damone, looking

mischievous.

ANGLE ON DAMONE AND STACY IN THE JACUZZI

talking while the others are at the other end of

the pool.

ANGLE ON THE RAT

casually catching sight of them together from the

other side of the pool. We can read the emotions on

The Rat's face. He is still taken with Stacy, but

his big moment for her appears to have passed.

ANGLE ON DAMONE AND STACY IN THE JACUZZI

as they talk.

Underneath the water, her leg accidentally knocks

against his. Then he feels her continue. Damone

feels Stacy's cool hand on his inner thigh. Moving

upwards, stopping just short of the bulge in his

trunks.

ANGLE ON DAMONE'S FACE

as it loosens and quivers just the slightest bit.

This is uncharted territory, even for Mr. Attitude.

ANGLE ON LINDA:

who is now sunning herself by the side of the pool.

She rubs her legs against each other, slowly,

enjoying the hot afternoon.

EXT. BRAD'S WINDOW - ANGLE ON BRAD

who is watching Linda from the window in his room.

We see him from behind, peeking out the curtains.

EXT. POOL - ANGLE ON LINDA

who smiles at Damone and flips back into the pool

with a splash. Damone steals a look down at his

swimsuit. He's popped a big one.

THE RAT:

Why don't you get up and do a dive,

Mike?

LINDA:

Go ahead.

ANGLE ON DAMONE'S FACE

and we know he can't get out of the water yet.

DAMONE:

No. I don't think so. Not right

now.

THE RAT:

Chicken!

Linda, for one, loses interest quickly. Standing by

the side of the pool, she jams a finger in her ear

and wiggles it.

LINDA:

Stacy! I've got water in my ears.

Do you have any Q-Tips?

STACY:

God, I don't think so. Better look

in the house.

Linda towels off and heads back inside the Hamilton

house. She knows how to walk.

INT. BRAD'S BEDROOM AND BATHROOM - AFTERNOON

We see Brad's room. The Carl's burger picture on

the wall is conspicuously missing. There is music

playing from his stereo -- Pink Floyd's "You and

Me".

We see Brad. He is kneeling on the bathroom floor,

his back to us. His green T-shirt is on, his

underwear in a pile on the floor behind him. His

arm is pumping slowly. Brad is jacking off.

DISSOLVE:

TO:

EXT. HAMILTON POOL - BRAD'S DAYDREAM

It features Linda Barrett, just as she stood on the

diving board a moment ago. She is gorgeous. Her

breasts seem even bigger than usual. Her nipples

are hard, poking through the film maroon string

bikini. Water rolls slowly down her cheeks, into

the corners of her mouth. Her lips are parted

slightly. Her eyes are filled with desire as she

says...

LINDA:

Hi, Brad.

(pause)

You know how cute I always thought

you were. I think you're so sexy.

Will you come to me?

ANGLE ON BRAD IN DAYDREAM

in a nice shirt, his hair combed back and looking

great. He walks to Linda. She reaches out and grabs

him for a kiss, pulling him close. Then she pushes

him away, so he can watch as she carefully unstraps

the top of her bathing suit. The incredible Linda

Barrett's breasts fall loose.

She takes Brad's hands and places them on her, as

she begins unbuttoning his shirt. They are just

about to fall into passionate lovemaking when we

hear...

LINDA (O.S.) (CONT'D)

Hey, Brad! Do you have any Q-Ti...

The daydream evaporates and we see real life again

with an...

INT. BRAD'S BATHROOM - ANGLE ON LINDA'S FACE

in the doorway of Brad's bathroom as she watches

the sight before her.

ANGLE ON BRAD:

trying to cover himself and act nonchalant and keep

his back turned at the same time. The words barely

escape his mouth.

BRAD:

Wait just a... minute.

LINDA:

Sorry. I didn't know anybody was in

here.

Linda turns and goes immediately, as if she wants

to forget what she saw as quickly as possible. She

closes the door behind her.

ANGLE ON BRAD:

still kneeling. It had all happened so quickly, so

fast

BRAD:

Doesn't anybody f***in' knock

anymore?

He slams the toilet seat down and we...

CUT TO:

INT. U.S. HISTORY CLASS - DAY

The third attendance bell rings, and Mr. Hand

strides to the front of the class. He locks the

door. Then he takes the front of the class and

notices something very different.

ANGLE ON JEFF SPICOLI

bright and clear-eyed, sitting in the front row.

His hands are clasped in front of him on the desk.

His textbook is open to the proper page.

Mr. Hand is suspicious, but continues with class.

MR. HAND

Now in 1898, Spain owned Cuba.

Outright. Think about it. Cuba,

owned by a disorganized parliament

4,000 miles away. Cubans were in a

constant state of revolt.

Mr. Hand begins pacing the aisles as he talks.

MR. HAND (CONT'D)

In 1904, the United States decided

to throw a little weight around,

and...

There is a brief, sharp knock at the door. Mr. Hand

whips his head around, like McGarrett. He

approaches the door like a cat.

MR. HAND (CONT'D)

(sweet voice)

Who is it?

VOICE:

Mr. Pizza.

MR. HAND

Again?

VOICE:

Mr. Pizza, sir!

Hand swings the door open, out of curiosity. In

walks a young Man in a Mr. Pizza delivery shirt.

PIZZA MAN:

Okay, who had the double cheese

sausage and bologna?

Jeff Spicoli speaks up.

SPICOLI:

That's me.

The Delivery Man takes the pizza, sets it on the

desk, as Spicoli whips out some crumpled dollars.

Then he produces yet another crumpled dollar, and

presses it into the Delivery Man's hand.
