Fast Times at Ridgemont High Page #14

STACY:

Are you really a virgin?

DAMONE:

Come on...

He could feel his leg starting to shake the

slightest bit.

STACY:

It's okay if it's your first time.

She gives him a kiss.

DAMONE:

Listen. I feel pretty strange here.

Because Mark really likes you, and

he's my friend.

STACY:

He's my friend, too.

She gives him another kiss. He kisses her in

return. Standing there, feeling Stacy in her

bikini, feeling her kiss him, Damone also felt some

of his reservations slip away.

DAMONE:

You're a really good kisser.

STACY:

So are you.

(pause)

Are you shaking?

DAMONE:

(shaking)

No. Are you crazy?

It is clear that this is as far as Mr. Attitude has

ever gotten with a girl. Stacy takes the

initiative, rubbing her hands through his hair,

rubbing his sides, kissing his neck, then pulling

away.

STACY:

(whispers)

Why don't you take off your

clothes, Mike?

DAMONE:

You first.

STACY:

How about both of us at the same

time?

Damone nods, and watches as Stacy unhooks her top

and steps out of her bikini bottom. She stands

naked in the shadows of the afternoon sun. She sits

down naked on a red changing room couch, and

gathers her legs up to her chest. She watches as

Damone struggles with his clothes.

ANGLE ON DAMONE:

hopping on one leg, pulling first out of his pants,

then his jockey underwear. Bashfully, he goes to

sit next to Stacy on the couch. They begin to kiss,

and it quickly escalates into heavy petting. Stacy

pulls away.

STACY:

I want you to know that it's your

final decision if we should

continue or not.

DAMONE:

Let's continue.

Stacy leans back and pulls him on top of her. He

enters her and begins pumping so hard, so fast,

that he doesn't notice he's banging the sofa into

the wall of the changing room.

But just as quickly as Damone starts, he stops.

STACY:

(whispers)

Hey, Mike?

DAMONE:

What? Are you all right?

STACY:

I think we're making a lot of

noise.

DAMONE:

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

He has a strange look on his face.

STACY:

What's wrong?

DAMONE:

I think I came. Didn't you feel it?

STACY:

I guess I did.

They lay there, Damone still on top of her on the

red couch.

ANGLE ON DAMONE:

as we read the confusion on his face. He is

embarrassed, a little confused... mostly he just

wants to be alone.

DAMONE:

I've got to get home. I've really

got to go, Stacy.

ANGLE ON STACY:

as she looks up at him. She gives him a kiss.

Damone gets up puts his pants and shirt on. He

leaves the changing room.

DISSOLVE:

INT. BIOLOGY CLASS - AFTERNOON

We see Stacy sitting at her usual seat, and she's

wearing a bright spring dress with a slight amount

of makeup.

She looks at Damone's seat with anticipation, but

it remains empty as other students file in.

Finally, she turns to The Rat.

STACY:

Where's Mike today?

THE RAT:

Today's April 16th. Damone never

comes to school on April 16th.

STACY:

What's April 16th?

THE RAT:

It's John Bonham's birthday.

STACY:

John Bonham?

THE RAT:

John Bonham. The drummer for Led

Zeppelin. He died a couple years

ago. Every birthday he stays home

and plays everything John Bonham

ever recorded. It's like his own

holiday.

STACY:

Oh. I see.

The bell rings, and Mr. Vargas enters the room with

his Sanka cup.

INT. COLLEGE COUNSELOR'S OFFICE - AFTERNOON

Seated at the desk is Mrs. O'Rourke. There is a

knock at the door.

The door swings open. Brad Hamilton holds out his

yellow slip.

MRS. O'ROURKE

Have a seat, Brad... Brad have you

got your list of college

applications?

BRAD:

Well, to tell you the truth Mrs.

O'Rourke, I've kind of been putting

it off. I'm not sure what I want to

do yet.

MRS. O'ROURKE

(by rote)

All right Brad. Let me ask you like

this. If I were queen of the world,

and I could make you whatever you

wanted to be, what would it be?

BRAD:

I don't know... Burt Reynolds.

There is no humor on Mrs. O'Rourke's face.

MRS. O'ROURKE

I realize it's important to have

fun in your senior year, with your

friends, but there comes a time

when you have to get serious about

your future, think about college,

and put aside all this fun.

Brad looks up suddenly.

BRAD:

You know what, Mrs. O'Rourke? I

broke up with my girlfriend this

year. I lost my job at Carl's, and

two other places. I wake up at 5:30

to work at 7-11, then I go to

school, then I go back to 7-11. I

have to pay rent, you know. My

grades haven't been that bad, and

now you're telling me that the fun

is over. Well, I'm still waiting

for the fun to start.

MRS. O'ROURKE

Brad, I'll see you when I'm through

with the rest of the seniors. If

you want to visit the career

office, go right ahead. I'll talk

to you when you're more prepared.

Brad gathers his books and opens the door to leave.

MRS. OIROURKE

Next!

An absolutely exuberant Cindy Carr pops her head in

the door.

CINDY:

Hi-yeeeeeeee!!!

DISSOLVE:

TO:

EXT. RIDGEMONT HALLWAY - MORNING

The bell has just rung, and Mike Damone comes out

of Youth and Law class. He has an absorbed, driven

look on his face. He walks past the rows of

lockers, and doesn't even notice as he passes Stacy

Hamilton standing by her locker. She smiles, grabs

his arm affectionately.

STACY:

Hi Mike!

Damone turns to see her, is thoroughly unimpressed.

DAMONE:

Oh. Hi.

STACY:

I didn't see you this morning.

DAMONE:

Look, I'm kind of in a hurry.

STACY:

I'm in a hurry too. I just thought

I could say hi to you.

DAMONE:

Hello.

He pulls away, leaving a bewildered Stacy standing

by her locker. She grabs some books and hurries in

the other direction.

EXT. SCHOOL BUS - DAY

The bus pulls up to the front entrance of

University Hospital. The students file out and

collect next to the front door. Mr. Vargas

gleefully addresses the class. This is his favorite

field trip.

MR. VARGAS

Today we're going to explore how

this hospital works to preserve

human life.

We'll be visiting every floor,

every level where these fine

doctors and nurses take care of us,

in life... and in death.

INT. MATERNITY WARD

The class exits from a hospital elevator, onto

another floor. They are now standing outside the

maternity ward. We hear the loud noise of babies.

MR. VARGAS

Over thirty children are delivered

here each day...

The class moves on.

INT. THE BOTTOM FLOOR

The class exits another hospital elevator.

MR. VARGAS

This is part of your third quarter

exam, and I'd advise you to take

careful notes on what we're about

to see.

ANGLE ON DR. MILLER

a young intern who has joined the class for the

last part of their tour.

MR. VARGAS

May I just ask you one last time to

conduct yourselves with the utmost

maturity...

The kids are beginning to get very nervous now as

they are led down the hall to the "Cold Room." The

door to the "Cold Room" has only one sign on it. It

reads:
CADAVERS -- MEDICAL EXAMINATION ONLY. Mr.

Vargas opens the door, and the class seems to gasp.

INT. THE COLD ROOM

There are six examination tables in the "Cold

Room". Each of them contains a cadaver covered by a

white sheet. Mr. Vargas has gathered the class

around one table in particular. He fingers the edge

of the white sheet as he talks.
