The Preppie Connection Page #2

We searched every alley,

every stoop, every corner.

It wasn't looking good.

We should try those guys.

But you gotta make sure we're

close enough so they can see us.

-Okay.

-Okay.

I'm just gonna nod my head.

Nod your head?

What do you mean?

I saw it in this film.

They're not even

looking at you, man.

Just give it another second.

Just roll down

the f***ing window, man.

Yo! Air Jordan.

What the f***

did you call me?

We're just trying

to buy some green, blood.

What the f***?

What the f*** makes you think

I deal drugs?

-Motherf***er?

-No, no, no.

That's not what we were

thinking. We were just...

We're just looking

to buy some marijuana.

We thought maybe you'd know

where we could get some.

You're such a f***...

Shut up.

Okay.

You got the money?

Yeah. Yeah,

I have some money.

Did he go with you?

What's his name?

Dennis. Yeah. Yeah. He came...

You should've seen him.

He was doing all these signals to the dealer

that I-I guess he learned in some movie.

He's like, "Yo, we're here

to buy some green, blood."

Is your friend

mentally challenged?

Ben and Laura were the other

half of Alex and Ellis.

But Laura was sweet, quiet.

She was always kind to me.

And Ben, her boyfriend, was a prick,

but I kind of liked him anyway.

Even though I was

the 5th wheel, it felt good.

And at the very least I was

speaking and they were listening.

Even if it was mostly

at my expense.

We're blood brothers.

Stop. Toby, just stop.

You're high

as a f***ing kite, man.

Now!

Let's go!

Go. Go.

Open up the door!

I had my foot against

the door that our house master

Mr. Gaines was pounding on.

Let's go.

When she looked at me

I didn't even think about it.

If it had been a train

coming towards her

I'd have laid down

in front of it.

He said he was sorry.

In here.

You see all that in the front?

Yeah, I see it.

In front of the hedge

there's a lot of weeds here.

Just push them to the side.

Make sure.

What are you doing here?

I heard

about your suspension.

I just wanted to come see you.

Toby. What are you doing?

Who are you talking to?

She's selling

Girl Scout Cookies.

You want any?

No, I don't want

any Girl Scout Cookies.

Get back to work.

Yeah, no, we don't want any.

My loss.

I just wanted to tell you

that what you did...

Thank you.

Welcome back.

Everything felt different

the day

I got back from my suspension.

The preppies wanted

to get a look at me.

They were curious.

Who wouldn't be?

By the time I got back to

campus, I'd heard the stories.

I'd blown a cloud of ganja

smoke into Mr. Gaines' face

pushed him out of the room

and told him to f*** off.

None of it was true, but it

took some of the heat off me.

The preppies were appeased.

Hey. Can I,

can I get a minute?

We should go. If not, Stan and

Fred will get the best eppets.

Yeah, I'll be right there.

Take it easy, Zorro.

What's up?

Listen, I-I just, I wanted to

thank you for what, happened.

I mean, I, look, man, I would've

stuck around with you.

But the thing is, I already got

one strike against me

and you know with the two strike

rule around here...

Well, discretion is often

the better part of valor.

Are you f***ing with me?

What do you mean?

I mean, you're a local

bumpkin and all

but... sometimes

sometimes I get the feeling

that you're from far away.

Hey, a bunch of us

are, gonna meet up

on the golf course

after check in.

You up for that?

I mean, one more strike for

either one of us and it's...

Behind the green

on the seventh hole.

Midnight.

Don't be a p*ssy.

"Don't be a p*ssy."

"Don't be a p*ssy."

But the truth was...

I wasn't afraid

of anything...

except losing her.

I don't know, my mom said

she saw on the news that like

if you do this once

you'll get addicted.

-Your mom's a c*nt.

-Her mom loves you.

My mom doesn't love anybody.

I'm guessing, you haven't

done this before.

Come on, Tobs.

It's not gonna hurt.

-Isn't that amazing?

-Look at the moon.

-You feel good.

-You feel really good.

-I don't feel...

-Laura's gonna get addicted.

-No, I'm not.

-You're gonna get addicted.

Shut up!

Something you could

do every day, right?

Wait, the way

you talk is like...

It's like perfect.

It's...

That's exactly how I'm feeling.

Classic.

F***in', turn that f***in'

thing off, you f***in' moron.

Why is it so hard to get?

Because everybody wants it.

Yeah, man, you need...

You need like real...

Real connections to get

this sh*t, you know.

I... I could probably

get some more.

From who?

Y... You're bros in New Haven?

Sh*t, Jack, they wouldn't sell

you anything more

than some stepped on

f***in' Tide.

Those aren't my

only connections.

Come on, man.

I mean...

You'll never get your hands

on good coke.

If anybody can get it

Toby can.

Okay!

Okay!

So now I'm the bad guy?

Pussycat! Pussycat!

Come here, pussycat!

-Where are you going?

-I can't tell you.

It's freezing!

What?

Don't worry.

He's from Maine.

You're crazy.

With the balls

of a polar bear!

It really makes you think.

You know?

It makes me stop thinking.

My God!

I'm in love with you.

I know.

Where have you been?

-School.

-Doing what?

Homework.

What you... hold on.

You want us to believe

you were doing homework?

Your hair's wet.

You know, I... I'm finally

making the kind of friends

you guys want me to make

a... and now, he's giving me

a hard time.

Doing what?

What were you doing?

I was studying!

Just with some friends.

That's a load

of malarkey.

Were you Tobias?

Yeah, I said I was, alright.

Stay out of my f***in' business.

Hey! Hey!

What?

You don't speak

to your mother like that!

You understand?

We have every right to ask

where have you've been.

You just got suspended.

Now, look, you can't

you just can't afford

this kinda trouble.

Then again, we can't really

afford anything.

Right?

No money, no connections.

A pretender. A poser.

That's all I was.

-Hello?

-Dennis, hey.

Hey, man, what's goin' on?

Hey, man. I need your help.

He told me he'd handle it

and I didn't want to know how.

A good friend would've

probably stopped him.

But I wasn't a good

friend anymore.

I didn't know what I was.

Sh*t! What happened?

Next time I'll just hide

the money first.

You alright?

Yeah, I'm okay.

-Good.

-Here.

Thanks.

What's this?

It's the coke.

-What?

-Yeah.

I stole it from 'em.

F***ing pricks.

Dennis!

My God!

Thank you so much.

Yeah.

God, okay...

When we go in there, I need you

to do something for me.

Anything.

Here.

You just look like a badass.

That's it?

That's it.

-Alright.

-Okay, let's do it.

Alright so it's about half

an eight ball.

Each line is a hundred bucks.

Or you can do the whole thing

for five hundred.

F*** you. F*** you

and your mother.

You can get half an eight ball

in this town for two hundred!

Okay, then go get it.

You see my associate here

went through to make

the purchase.

Well, you know,

I take the whole bag.
