What if this is our last chance?

Would you rather I lose if to some a**hole

after a bunch of beer bongs?

Is that really the only other option?

Probably.

If just feels wrong.

I don't see the difference

between this and the other stuff.

Well, you might when you're a little bit older.

Nice.

Condescending, or what?

Don't be childish.

Mommy and Daddy are probably looking for me.

Wouldn't want to keep them waiting.

I need you to delete those text messages now.

You okay?

Supposedly, she got a huge tattoo of a pentagram

on her back right above her ass.

What's up with that?

Sierrds a witch.

Her parents are witches too.

It's like witch pride or something.

Yeah, but a big witch tattoo at 16?

Isn't that a little nutso?

God, I mean, why do people feel this constant need

to shove their beliefs down everyone's throat?

Like mine?

You know, atleast Sierra

wouldn't stop being a0 witch

'cause some guy came around.

Yeah, she wouldn't, like,

ditch her witches.

I love the violin.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay. okay?

All right? Okay.

It's okay.

It's Spencer.

You want to tell him you're okay?

Don't

Okay.

Tic-Tac.

You need some greasy brunch to soak up that hangover?

Go away.

Ben Carter has resigned.

What?

This isn't even on school property.

You want to talk about that?

I was practicing making a fake photo.

Ben's super imposed.

Molly.

This isn't a take photo, is it?

Well, that doesn't prove anything.

Molly, the fact is, leaving school

property with a student, alone,

without the permission of your parents,

is a serious enough offence just on its own.

We were just taking photos.

Nothing happened.

What could have happened?

Are you gonna bring out

the bad-touching doll now?

Give me a break.

Molly! Show him some respect.

Okay, look, this happens all the time, okay?

In fact, just last week, I met a girl your age

who was being taken advantage of by her basketball coach.

She thought she was special,

Thought she was the only one

he'd ever break the rules for.

Turns out he'd done it four times.

No one took advantage of me.

We need to discuss if you and your parents

want to press charges

against Ben Carter.

For-No!

Maybe we just need some time

alone with our... our daughter.

Wait, wait, wait, not so fast.

Mr. Maxwell, we really don't have

any evidence if she doesn't cooperate.

Who's Spencer?

He's my boyfriend.

No, he isn't

I say we call this Spencer

and see who? he knows...

You know...

I don't think that's necessary.

Why not?

Because I don't think we should get Spencer involved.

You know this Spencer guy?

He goes to Parkdale High.

He plays the trumpet

Hey, Molly.

So, is it true?

That's so f***ing awesome.

Totally knew, by the way.

Didn't I tell you?

No.

Ben's like, what, 26?

Why can't he get a girl his own age?

My parents are, like, 10 years apart.

My mom was, like, 18.

Yeah, but she's 16.

I mean, she just got her braces off,

like, what, six months ago?

Think he's done if before?

Hey, your favourite movie's on.

It's not my favourite movie.

What are you talking about?

Of course it is.

No, it isn't.

Well, you're grounded,

so don't even think about going out.

Okay.

Did he take this?

Yeah.

You look beautiful.

Look...

I don't know this guy like you do.

But I do know that teachers aren't supposed

to mess around with their students.

You're a smart kid.

An amazing young woman, actually.

You're gonna make your own mistakes.

You'll live.

Call me if you need me.

Or text me, or...

email me, or...

or write on my wall.

Thank you.

Okay.

You're here.

Here I am.

Your parents didn't barricade you in your room?

My dad's actually probably

taking this opportunity to fit the locks.

How have you been?

You know...

Relieved not to be in jail.

Thanks for that, by the way.

Welcome.

I think you're gonna like this first song.

It's called Hand Grenade.

Ben, I just wanted to say I'm really sorry.

Sorry for what?

For developing the rolls.

And everything.

Ain't no thing.

Maybe we could get something to eat after.

I don't think so.

Yeah.

Probably not.

I have to go now.

Hi.

This is my first ever solo show.

And this is gonna be the first song

that I have ever written,

so I hope it's not too painful.

ID?

Pardon me?

Do you have any ID?

Oh, I'm not drinking.

Seriously?

Sorry.
