- Hey, Zack, awesome race.

- Thanks.

I guess you're looking good

for the nationals, eh? Congratulations.

Thanks. You coming to the party tonight?

Oh, yeah, yeah. As if I'd miss that!

We'll find a nice quiet corner

and you can blow me, then.

You know what, man? F*** you, eh!

Oh!

Sorry, I didn't hear. What was that?

- Got you, sweetheart.

- Excuse me?

Hey, Dazza. Good race, man.

Yeah, I suppose seventh is

an improvement.

You going to step things up for

the trials when they come round?

I'm not really in it

for the competition.

It's the shower time he likes.

Watch your arse around this one!

- Don't worry about him.

- Do I look worried?

You're two unit physics, aren't you?

- OK, that question makes me nervous.

- No, let's walk.

I can give you my notes.

Why don't you just look over

my course journal?

Look over? You mean complete.

Why not? You're good at that stuff.

- That's a whole term's worth of work.

- I just need a pass.

- Study?

- Look, look, listen, listen.

I'm actually making you an offer.

You understand me, right?

I'm not going to be responsible

if you fail.

I'll probably fail it anyway.

- Fine. Give me your notes.

- Man, you f***ing rock the planet.

You coming to the house?

Sh*t, man, I've got work to do.

Don't be such a f***ing martyr.

Enjoy yourself for once.

Well, that probably sucked for you, man.

- He giveth, he taketh away.

- Yeah, I reckon.

- Do you know what can be fun.

- What?

The sense of freedom - it's like

you can finally connect with people

because they let go of their barriers

and just be themselves.

But sometimes people can be

really scary when they're like that.

Yeah, I guess it depends.

- I'll see how I go, OK?

- OK.

Hey, he's coming.

- Hey.

- Hey.

I'll see you tonight?

Uh, maybe.

An improvement on last time.

Out of the car! Everyone out!

Out, out, out!

Techno music

Hi. What's your name?

- Nikki.

That's a nice name.

You are gorgeous. Do you model?

Dude, where are you?

How's the party, you big nerd?

Man, why aren't you down there?

Yeah, right.

Get out! Get out.

Get out!

Yes.

- Hey.

- Hey, what's up?

- I'm getting sponsors.

- Oh.

OK, what's the cause?

Well, if we raise enough money,

a group of us are going to South America

to build houses for children

whose parents have been killed

by whatever crime,

natural disaster, you know.

That kind of thing.

- Cool. Are you going?

- Yeah! Yeah, yeah.

- Oh!

- Will you sponsor me?

- Sure.

- Cool.

- It's not Christian or anything, right?

- No.

- Sweet. So, do I put in, like...

- Whatever you can.

Thanks for that.

You know that swimmer guy

with the big head

who keeps sending me pictures of his...

Yeah?

So check studentremains.org.

- Why?

- Just...

Oh, my God!

Oh, my...

- It's not even that impressive!

- I know.

He totally had this coming.

Who do you think posted it?

My secret protector?

He's all yours, is he?

You're crushing.

I'm...a little crushie, but shut up.

'Now I stand where I struck

and the deed is done.

This was my work.

I cast my net,

wrapping him in a robe rich in evil.

He collapsed, gasping out

his last breath, his life ebbing away.

And I rejoiced

just as the newly sown earth rejoices.'

Zack? Zack! I'm talking to you.

Hey, where you been, man?

I'm thinking about finals, actually.

God. Why? It's like half a year away.

Is that Shay O'Brien?

Shay!

Shay, what are you doing here?

Nothing. I'm just walking.

So which was it?

Come on.

I don't know. It's like...

Just really feels like

it's our last year, that's all.

Ow!

Does it make you sad?

There's no need to f***ing analyse it.

It makes me sad.

F*** school. I just want to party.

This weekend.

You know that Xandrie chick

wants to go, right?

She can come.

She asked if your brother

was going to be there.

Really?

Yeah.

Now that does upset me.

That would be a messed up couple.

Yep.

You don't look like your brother.

Uh...

'Cause he's not my brother.

Really? What's with your name?

Uh... My mum married his dad

so I'm stuck with it.

I used to be a Hayward.

Where's your real dad?

Fleeing responsibility.

I'm Xandrie.

Yeah, I know. We're in history.

I know. You never speak to me.

At first I thought it was 'cause of

the whole swimming-team cool factor.

Then I realised

you don't speak to them either.

Uh, I actually swim because I like it.

- Crazy.

- I know.

So I'll see you Friday?

Uh... Yeah, I don't think I'll go.

It's your house.

Yeah, it's also a big house.

Well, text me. I'll be in it.

Do I ask for your number?

Here.

Look, I'll do it.

I'll see you later, Mr Hayward.

OK.

I'm dying over here

and I'm totally sick of...

Darren?

Laters.

Techno music thumps

Yeah, great. Just put your shoes in.

Awesome.

Woo!

- Hey, Ella.

- Hi.

- Want to do a line with me?

- What?

You want to do a line with me?

No, thanks.

OK, cool!

Hey, hey, awesome party, man.

Hey! Zandrea, right?

Xandrie, yeah.

- Zandrea?

- Xandrie, yeah.

Guess who's here.

Would you cheer up, for f***'s sake?

People are watching us.

He's gonna get with her.

Oh, my God. Who cares?

She's just a snack b*tch.

Who's that girl who's always with her,

anyway?

She dresses like my mum.

- You having a good time?

- Yeah. My God. This is awesome.

I should give you the tour.

- Hey, have you seen your brother?

- No. No.

You really like him, don't you?

A girl doesn't tell.

That's great. He's a good kid.

Aren't you kind of the same age?

Hey, listen, listen.

If you want me to sort you out too,

let me know.

Maybe later. We're going upstairs.

Thanks.

You want to have some fun?

Aren't we having fun?

Oh God, not K. I'm smashed!

Whoops!

- Zack, have you seen Xandrie around?

- Who?

She's in our history class.

Used to go out with Brad. Big smile.

I don't know, man. Maybe try out back.

Hey, Daz!

Has your brother f***ed her yet?

Would I want her if he had?

You know, I think I'm maturing.

I've got this new thing for older women.

That explains the smile

on your mother's face.

That explains the smile on your

mother's... F*** off!

Seriously, have you seen

Zack's step-mum?

That b*tch is off the hook. I'd go her.

Watch your f***ing mouth.

That's my dad's lady friend.

Excellent.

Take it. I'm gone. Thanks!

Hello! We got you these.

You seemed lonely, ladies.

Oh, thanks.

- Hi, I'm Ella.

- Oh, biology. Right.

Where do you live?

So, man, are you taking anything?

Nuh. It's too risky.

My old man used them when he turned pro.

It's ancient herbal sh*t.

They don't test for it anymore.

- I'm still going to kick your arse.

- Yeah, whatever.

I just need a state place to keep out

of the army. Got this deal with my dad.

Brooky, my dad is

going to cut me off at the knees

if I don't get an 85-plus on my TER.

He started caring

when he married a new son.

Now he knows what a f***ing student's

meant to look like.

- Fathers, huh?

- Yeah.

My God. It's boring out here.

You guys should come inside

and dance or something.
