Geography Club Page #2

Synopsis: "GEOGRAPHY CLUB" is based on Brent Hartinger's best-selling critically acclaimed novel: "What am I looking for?" asks 16-year old Russell Middlebrook of himself as he heads off on his newest adventure. Russell is still going on dates with girls, while Kevin will do anything to prevent his football teammates from finding out what he is concealing, Min and Terese tell everyone they're really just good friends, and Ike can't figure out who he is or what he wants to be. But the truth is too hard to hide - at least from each other - so they form the Geography Club. Nobody else will discover the truth about them as no other students in their right minds would ever join a club that sounds so boring. Their secrets will be safe from classmates. But are they? "Geography Club" is a smart, fast, moving and funny account of contemporary teenagers as they discover their own sexual identities, dreams and values and not merely live out their parents' desires and ambitions.

GEOGRAPHY CLUB:

Nah... I can not decide. Ike?

- He totally has DQF. It's a 's'.

- What's DQF?

Dark Queen Face.

It is when a that guy has naturally thin eyelashes...

...and super pronounced cheekbones.

Oh! My Dad totally has that.

Hey.

- Hey.

- Glad you came.

I'm... I don't mean to be rude but... what is this?..

I will explain...

Because the sign on the door says 'Geography club'...

- I know....

- And I don't see any maps...

- Russell? I knew it.

- Hey...

- He knew what?

- This is not a geography club.

- That's obvious.

- Oh... We are a group...

- Like a band?..

- Like a secret support group.

For what?

For gay teens.

You have no right.

- Russell, stop.

- Why do you do that?

- Russell, just listen...

- No.

- I treat me and now they know that I'm...

- Gay?

I don't know... ok?.. I don't know what I am...

...and it's not your business anyway.

You're right. And whatever you decide

to do I would not say anything.

About either of you.

You do know it just because you saw what happened.

It doesn't mean you get to say.

I'm really sorry, Russell. But, please,

just come inside, check it out...

You stay out of my sh*t, alright?

- It was nothing.

- Yeah?

She just wanted to say that we've

got nothing to worry about.

- For real?

- Does it matter?

You're right... You're right!

Ah... Dude, I was almost hallucinating.

That day at the park... Was that you?

'Cause it just... some coincidence?

No, I... I recognized you from school.

- I was gonna say something... you know... I just a...

- Freaked down.

- Exactly.

- And then you made me feel like a complete idiot. Ok, then.

Russell... you know... I'm sorry.

I am. I'm just... Wait a second! Wait... Wait a second.

What's this?

I want to hang out with you. In school and stuff.

Ok.

But I don't... but I don't want people gain suspicious.

You know, like, "What are they doing

together outside?", you know.

- So... you got me a jersey?

- No. I got you joined team.

- Good morning.

- Morning.

So I thought to ride to school together today.

Ah... cool. Ah... what's that?

- Ah... That is Florence Carsi.

- Ah... You named it Flo?

Yeah, after my grandmother Florence.

So lame.

It's not lame!

Air is crisp, my friend! Crisp.

Why are you so happy this morning?

No, nothing. You know, just Kimberly

said she goin' on date with me.

So what made you to finally change her mind?

No, no. It's just she came out with her senses.

It's awesome, man!

Oh, and... Kimberly also said that I ought to

come along with her friend Trish or canceling it.

- No way!

- Oh, come on, Russell!

I do not wanna to do that!

Why? Because she wears a promise ring?

Who cares? Trish is hot!

I don't care! The answer is 'No'.

- What the hell are you doing?

- Russell... You have to do this for me.

- Friend, it's all that ever matters!

- Well, I do not wanna...

Please... Please, I'm begging you as a friend!

If I go on date with Kimberly...

For the first time in my life I will have a girlfriend.

How, do you know, important is that for me?

Ok.

- Oh, dude, thank you very much!

- No problem.

Thank you so much!

Feeling dizzy, itching crazy, having ceases...

...feeling lazy, cold and clammy skin...

- Oxicom!

- Yeah!

- Hey, how was the test?

- Know that, babe.

They are my Mom's pills in replace with other medicines.

Those are just the empty bottles.

- She's going freak.

- I know.

No. She looks beautiful.

Stop.

Ok, so... let's a buzz set.

Feel I aged Arina last night good?

So my Mom finds me in my room... and

tells me she's gonna give me $100.

Nice!

But says I'm only allowed to buy a dress with it.

That girl as pretty as me shouldn't

be wearing jeans all the time.

Ok, or maybe she's just trying to be nice?

Or maybe she's just trying to be a b*tch.

- Do you think that's bad? Listen to this.

- What?... Ah...

- Upsi... Yeah...

- Upsi...

So, after weeks of talking this boy

online, we finally met up. Hmm.

So what I think:
let's see how far I can take this.

Then I'm all. I mean to put my hands

down his pants and see what happens.

- And here's a surprise!

- Big package?

- Try no package.

- What?

- He was totally a 'she'.

- Look, ok... I don't get it.

He's this girl. Her name is Samanta. She is a les.

When she told her parents, they hit the road.

She came back a day later and told

them that she was just confused...

...and approved to them she'd go out

and promised to find a boyfriend.

I know, tragic, right?

She said she did not want a straight dude...

...said she felt safe with a gay guy instead.

I mean, I did tell her that I

was 80-20, but she didn't mind.

80-20?

80% straight, 20% gay.

- Ok.

- So what happened?

We went and got coffee. Talked for hours. Beach is fierce.

So I'm gonna be her fake boyfriend until

she figures it's just a wish now.

- It's awesome, dude!

- It's really cool.

Well, I have an exam which to prepare.

- Ah... I can help a little.

- Thanks.

Hey... I'm... just curious. What

made you decide to come back?

I don't know... You're like not telling anyone, are you?

You know about us, too.

It's tideous.

5 minutes late!

- Hi, Russell.

- Hi, Trish.

I bet you are great at bowling.

I'm ok.

Yeah!

Thought that we gained cheese?

- They ran out of cheese... So...

- That's ok, Gunnar.

It is?

Well, I can go and... slice a pizza that's got cheese on it.
