Party, The (2023)

Post by bunniefuu »

Oh, f*ck yeah.

What?

I just got a

feeling about tonight.

What do you mean?

Tonight's the night I won.

Dude, you've won,

like, 100 times before.

You bought one a day

since you turned 18.

Yes, but tonight's

the night for her, man.

This is a good sign.

OK, well, that "her" my

over-sized friend here is

referring to is the

girl he's had a crush

on for three f*cking years, but

has had zero interactions with.

That woman is

Beckett Montgomery.

Nah.

Max has never been

much more than nervous

when it comes to

girls, although he did

sign Beckett's yearbook once.

But he said his hands

were shaking so badly,

he doubts she understood

a word he wrote in it.

Man, you wouldn't get it.

My folks met in high school.

Who gives a f*ck?

Uh, I do.

I wanted to meet the

girl in high school

that was going to marry

for the rest of my life,

and that ship f*cking sailed.

Max, you idiot, who told you

to do what your parents did?

Just be yourself,

for Christ's sake.

Yeah, I get that.

But, like, it's so perfect.

Maxie-poo, do you

really think Beckett

is the kind of girl who marries

a high school sweetheart?

You got a stiffy for

her, that's for sure.

But Beckett's a butterfly, man.

And butterflies, they

don't stick around.

So, yeah, I'm the

girl that nobody

knows until she kills herself.

Then suddenly everyone's

had a class with her.

Well, tonight's

the night I'm gonna

put those words to the test.

What kind of kid do

I look like to you?

A pot smoker?

Goth, maybe a nerd?

Yeah, well, the nerds,

they think I hang

out with all the cool kids.

What the f*ck is a

cool kid, anyway?

You know, I actually

hate being alone.

In fact, I love people.

I just don't know how

to tell them that.

You know, I came

here tonight to try

to figure out what I should do.

And there's only

one person I trust

to help me make that decision.

Unfortunately, she

died this year.

And now that school's over,

I'm not sure I'm going

to be returning in the fall.

Mom, I was just wondering

if you were there.

So there's this

big party tonight,

the biggest one of the year, and

everybody's going to be there.

And I want to go.

I'm just scared.

I was just hoping

that maybe you could

give me a sign, help me out,

something, whether I should go

or not.

You know, I miss

seeing familiar faces.

It's just that Ashley will

definitely be there tonight.

Maybe she'll forgive me.

I mean, I completely cut her out

of my life when you got sick.

She doesn't know

that, of course.

Of course not.

Do you know how hard

it's been on my own?

I'm scared.

f*ck it.

I'm gonna go to the

party tonight, mom.

I mean, the money's running out.

This could be my last chance to

enjoy being a kid, so why not?

Are you guys coming, too?

Hey.

What gives?

Put the keys down.

Why?

Give me the keys.

Why?

It hasn't even been five

minutes since I told

you I was going to Ashley's.

And what did we tell you?

You didn't say anything.

You were too busy talking to

Frank about, don't get too

upset, honey, it's just a game.

I waved goodbye.

Frank said nothing, of course.

What is that

supposed to mean?

Is it any secret?

You come home and pour

yourself a scotch.

And you sit and you watch TV

here, always the same thing!

I have warned you

about that attitude.

Mom!

Oh!

You're not even my father!

Thank god for that.

Frank.

It used to be

just me and you, Mom.

Go to your room, kid.

That's the end of it.

Do as you're told, Morrigan.

- I'm sorry.

- Go to your room now!

I'm really sorry.

Mom.

Mom, I'll give you the keys.

Can I please call to Ashley's?

Morrigan, do as you're told.

Here.

Can I please, please,

please, please go now?

Please?

I'm not kidding, Morrigan.

Go to your room.

No.

Excuse you?

No.

Go to your--

Am I blocking your

precious game, Frank?

Yeah, you are.

Move.

Mom, he's a leech.

You can't even

look at me anymore.

I don't know what you're

talking about, Morrigan.

It's like

I lost you, Mom.

Morrigan, go to your room.

And take off your shoes.

Can I please call to Ashley's?

I can't be here.

No.

Honey, listen to me.

Stop.

Honey.

Sweetheart, listen to me.

No.

You brought all

this on yourself.

I hope you're happy.

My damn cookies are burned!

Cookies are burned.

Happy holidays!

sh*t!

Hey

Good morning, good morning

It's time to wake up, yeah

All right, yeah

All right, yeah

All right

Maxie, Maxie, Maxie

You wild for this

Let's go

You thought I was a throw-away

Thought I was a throw-away

Sleeping on your style,

don't mess around

Wrong way down a one-way

Wrong way down a one-way

And I was terrified to

stay by your side, yeah

Living in a dream state, yeah

And you were just

a kid then, yeah

Just a few more

years and you're

out of this hellhole, Morrigan.

You'd do

everything to run away first

Sunset's better

from the top floor

Get it together, Morrigan.

Even when

the win ain't big

Is tonight going

to be f*cking epic?

Let's see.

Now everybody

know your name

Don't go racing for the exit

Yeah.

I'm going to text

my best friend Ashley.

They

never gonna persist

Can't escape it with this

The wrong way down a one-way

Wrong way down a one-way

Ashley's a lot more

cautious than I am.

If she knew I was telling

her to park down the block

and not in my driveway because

I was planning to sneak out,

well, there's no flipping

way she'd go for it.

How am I going to

even get out of here?

Oh.

This is gonna be great.

Take your chances

You better every

chance, heavy on the--

Now, this is my first

time sneaking out.

And I'm not going to pretend

like it's not giving me a rush.

God knows, mom and Frank are

never going to notice I'm gone.

I'll be all

right, all right, all right

I'll be all right, all right

Make sure you can't avoid

For so long, yeah, ooh

I'm just another, heaven help me

Perfect timing.

Ashley's here.

Biggest party of the year.

I'm gonna blow off some steam.

Josh hadn't said anything

now for about five minutes.

He's never been

like this before.

I feel like he

lit a Roman candle

and I didn't know which

end of it he was holding.

And I know what some of

you Boomers are thinking.

We're only in high school.

Wait till we have to

deal with the real world.

Right.

I think a lot of you forget

what it's like to actually

live through high school.

It can be tough,

especially when you're

trying to navigate a storm of

hormones constantly raging.

All I know is that my

best bud was hurting.

And I wanted to do anything I

could to make him feel better.

Yo, Josh.

Yeah?

You know, it's pretty

f*cked up what she did to you,

man, how she just

left you like that.

You keep saying that.

Well, what else

can we do about it?

f*cking k*ll her.

OK.

Lost your spot, bro.

No way, bro, I had

some thinking to do.

The five of us have all been

best buds since the fifth grade.

We've had our fair

share of ups and downs,

but Josh was always the

one that held us together,

always the one to

get us to rally,

even when we didn't

feel like it.

And he didn't even need to

smoke or drink to do it.

Straight edge, as he called it.

That's why he always had those

black X marks on his hands.

But this was

different, you know?

This girl f*cking ripped

his heart out and--

and shat all over it.

So she had to die.

Right?

Yo, Josh, why don't you tell

them what you told me outside?

What, you mean

k*lling Morrigan?

Yeah.

Sure.

Let's get her so drunk, she

chokes on her own vomit.

Why don't we push

her off the bluff?

I mean, you can invite

her there or something.

With Ryan hiding in the bushes,

when the moment's right,

he could push her.

- Yo, why does it have to be me?

Because you've

got looks that k*ll.

Are y'all being

serious about this?

Yo, why not?

I mean, what she did to

Josh was pretty f*cked up.

Why don't we all get some

bats and beat her like a piata?

Yo, antifreeze, we can

put some in her beer tonight

at the party.

Why don't we just,

pow, sh**t her a*s?

Does anyone have a g*n?

Dude, if you shot her,

the news would get involved.

If it bleeds, it leads.

Come on, bro.

Christ, man, why do

you even open your mouth?

Seriously.

I swear that pretty face of

yours turns real ugly the second

that trap starts talking.

f*ck you guys.

Besides, no, no, no.

Seriously, though, like, if you

had just choked her or something

when she was

breaking up with you,

then it'd be a crime of

passion or something.

You know what I mean?

The fact that we're all sitting

around here talking about this,

that's premeditated.

That's first degree m*rder.

And do you know what they'll

do to Ryan in prison?

Not to mention, we'd all

be guilty of conspiracy.

Yo, I never heard

the full story.

I just heard that you two

were done all of a sudden.

So, what happened?

Morrigan asked me why I didn't

want to have sex with her.

I told her, it's not that I

don't want to have sex with her.

I don't want to have

sex with anybody,

at least until I was married.

Then she tried saying sh*t

like, just because I don't have

sex with her, I don't love her.

I told her, I don't

want to have sex

with her because I do love her.

It had nothing to do with her.

Then she said I was

full of crap and never

wanted to see me again.

Was that the first time that

she brought it up with you?

Yeah.

Up until about a week ago,

everything seemed perfect.

--as they bring him

down at the the 28-yard line.

Don't you just kind of wish

that you had sex with her

and got it over with?

No, I don't!

OK, chill.

You know what, bro?

At least I got f*cking morals.

I don't f*ck

everything that moves.

Yo, I hear you.

Just relax, bro.

You see what I mean

about Josh throwing

off the whole vibe of the crew?

So it's all over.

I wanted to smack him

in the head or something.

I mean, Josh was the guy that

we all relied on to get us out

of our sh*t when it went down.

He was the guy whose house you

can go to at 3:00 AM if you

wanted to b*tch

about your parents

or your girlfriend or whatever.

I know because I've

done it more than once.

But I f*cking hated

Morrigan for what

she was doing to him and

for what it was doing to us.

Now our night's

going to be ruined.

You know what?

Forget it guys.

Forget it?

Dude, who gives a

sh*t about Morrigan.

And who cares if she's gonna

be at the party tonight.

There's literally gonna be

so many other people there.

Look, none of us actually

really want to go to the party,

but we can't not go.

Josh, why don't you just

go to the party to show her

what a great time you're

able to have without her?

Nah, bro.

You can't just bail on us.

Yeah, man.

Who gives a sh*t about Morrigan?

You know what?

Just give me a call

in the morning,

see if I'm still around.

What the hell did that mean?

Dude, Josh, tonight's the night.

We gotta go.

Yeah.

Who's gonna drive the getaway

vehicle when we poison her?

Wait, wait, wait.

I thought we were sh**ting

her and then throwing

her body off the cliff.

Guys, guys, can we seriously

stop talking about this sh*t?

Like, for real.

OK, well, whatever we do,

we're gonna need to eat first.

So where are we going?

I think Matt's

up to something.

Sorry, guys, I

don't think I can--

Josh, Josh,

Josh, Josh, Josh.

f*ck you guys.

Josh, Josh,

Josh, Josh, Josh!

Matt gets b*tch seat.

Jesus, Matt, does your

mom know it's Christmas?

Ladies.

The b*tch seat for the b*tch.

Jesus.

Hell yeah, whip it.

Girl, you would not

believe what I just did.

Go, go, go.

Um, what up, girl?

How come you couldn't

use your car?

Oh, just that "we didn't

hear you" bullshit that Frank

and Alice always love to pull.

Are you gonna go visit your

grandma dressed like this?

My god.

Maybe.

But, um, Alice?

You call her mom

most of the time.

And Alice when

she pisses me off.

So then, there's nothing

wrong with your car?

I don't think so, no.

OK, so you had me park a

block away to pick you up, so?

Well, Ash, I

can't exactly have

my getaway car park in the

driveway if I snuck out,

now, can I?

Morrigan, what's

the matter with you?

You snuck out?

You hear how her voice gets

all high pitched like that?

I do that to her a lot.

OK, you snuck out.

That's great.

Oh my god.

OK, well, we could just hang at

my house until the party starts,

but that won't be

for like, two hours.

We can't hang

out at your place.

Why not?

Well, if we went to your place

and my parents were to notice

that I snuck out, your house

would be the first place

they look.

And I've got big

plans for tonight.

Like what?

More like who.

All right, well,

how about burritos?

Oh, f*ck yes.

OK.

Hey, look on the bright side.

We only have one

more year left to go

until we can put these past

four difficult years behind us.

Oh, you don't think it's

just going to get f*cking

worse after we graduate?

Um, no, actually.

I like to look on the

bright side of things,

not be so pessimistic.

Aren't you just

quite the optimist?

Well, we can't

choose our family,

but we sure can

choose our friends.

And I choose you, Ashley.

And I choose you.

So, are you ready?

Yeah, I am f*cking hungry.

Oh, me too.

Let's go then, shall we?

Oh.

- You know what tonight is?

- No.

No.

Oh my god.

Oh, hey.

Hey.

What do you think about Ryan?

Ryan Brunner?

Mm-hmm, yes.

I mean, he's hot, but a bit

of a man-wh*re for my taste.

Not for you, dumbass, for me.

No, no, absolutely not.

It's only been a week since

you and Josh broke up.

Plus, you never want to

go for an ex's friend.

It's-- it's messy.

It makes you look bad.

And it's just--

Josh and I dated

for six months.

And he refused to

have sex with me.

Ryan has sex with girls without

even knowing their last name.

And I want some d*ck.

Yes, I am trying to fill a void

inside of me by having sex.

However, I am going

to be a senior

and I still have

my hymen intact.

You ladies out there can relate.

Well, OK, so try to keep

it in your pants tonight.

Mm.

Or at least for the

next couple minutes.

Why?

Because guess who just

pulled up with his friends?

No.

Oh.

Perhaps I should have second

guessed sneaking out tonight.

Guess who.

Ah, sh*t.

Yo, want to go somewhere else?

Why?

Yeah, bro.

As hungry as I am, I'm totally

fine with going somewhere else.

Yeah, honestly, there's

that pizza place on state

where we can get falafel.

No, it's fine.

We live in the same town.

We're going to see each

other again, right?

Let's go.

All right.

I've known Ashley

since freshman year.

And for some reason, we always

had English class together.

The only thing I

knew about Morrigan

was that she stuck to

Ashley like poop on a shoe,

and that she was my

best bud's girlfriend--

sorry, ex-girlfriend.

What's up?

Oh, god.

I know this guy.

Hey, Ashley.

Hey, Tommy.

How'd you end up doing

on Ms. Corey's final?

Oh, I'd read the book

a bunch when I was a kid,

so I feel pretty good about it.

You?

Uh, pretty good, I think.

You guys going to

that party tonight?

Oh, yeah, we'll be there.

Yeah, she has plans to

get completely wasted

and piss off her parents, so.

One of those nights, huh?

Yup.

Um, so are you guys going?

Yeah.

Uh, I guess we'll

see you guys there.

Yeah.

Whoa, easy, tiger.

Well, boys, I got my plans

all laid out for me tonight.

I'll be clappin' them cheeks.

The old one-pump machine, huh?

Back at it again.

Who are you

disappointing tonight?

None of your business, d*ck.

Oh, sh*t.

Morrigan wasn't just

checking out Josh right now.

She was checking out Ryan.

Wait a minute.

Morrigan wasn't texting

Ryan right now, was she?

No, no, Ryan would never

do that to one of us.

You don't think Ryan would

do that to one of us, right?

Come on.

Watch out.

Sit back down.

All right, all right,

all right, all right.

Where you going, man?

Don't go.

It's fine.

It's fine.

It's fine, trust me.

Hey, Tommy, you want

something to eat?

No, I'm not hungry.

Hey, you going to

the party tonight?

Um, yeah.

Do you think we could talk?

Talk about what?

Us.

There is no us.

If you have something

to say, just say it.

Hey, Morrigan.

I'm sure you have your reasons,

but what you did to Josh

was f*cked up.

I'm f*cked up?

What about him?

I didn't say you

were f*cked up.

Chill.

I said what you

did was f*cked up.

Get your ears checked.

Oh, and go f*ck yourself.

How about you go jerk him off

in the back of his convertible?

I bet his d*ck

would appreciate it.

That was perfectly

good carne, you d*ck.

You good?

Yeah, just help me keep an eye

on Josh at the party tonight.

Yeah, yeah.

I don't want him

doing some stupid sh*t.

Got you a burrito.

How the f*ck did you know?

Hey, let's go.

Say goodbye, gentlemen.

Peace out, b*tch.

Bye, b*tch!

Woo!

Woo!

Oh, f*ck.

What?

Nothing.

What is it?

Nothing.

Oh my god, Beckett,

why is she out?

Who cares?

Beckett!

Beckett!

- Hey!

- f*ck.

Where are

you going, Beckett?

Beckett!

Hey!

Beckett!

I've been meaning to

ask you something.

Sit down.

Azize is the closest thing

I really have to a friend

at school.

I mean, we've never

really talked about it,

but I think because neither one

of us have brothers or sisters,

we just get along well.

Hello, Beckett.

I don't think I've actually

ever been in here before.

I've just ordered for delivery.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you for the order.

This is my father's.

I would like to

own it someday, you

know, and make my father proud.

That's really great to hear.

Do you think you guys

will ever sell pizza here?

Come on, Beckett,

you and your pizza.

We only sell, you know,

falafels and sandwiches.

OK, well, I guess just

give me some onion rings.

Sure.

Anything for you.

Thank you.

So are you going

to the party tonight?

Oh, I don't know.

I was thinking about it.

Are you?

Yes.

Does everybody

know about the party?

Hey, sweet pea,

I like that hat.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Not enough for some

O-rings, but enough

to make somebody smile.

Hurry up, Max.

Hurry up.

Max

Oh, hey, guys.

How may I help you?

Do you have a menu?

Yeah, sure.

This is gonna be fun.

Thank you.

I'll take everything.

Sure.

Thank you.

One special falafel.

Vegetarian.

One vegetarian falafel.

Very good.

Anything more?

No, that's it.

You go to City High?

Yes.

I will be a senior next year.

Cool, man.

Yeah, we both just

graduated from there.

Oh, great.

I'm happy for you two.

You going to

the party tonight?

Yes.

No idea why this

guy's so f*cking happy.

He's probably never

even partied before.

Hey, are you allowed to

drink cause of your religion?

It's gonna suck.

Go easy, Zohan.

You are correct.

My religion does not

permit me to drink alcohol.

But, you know, I'm

still very much looking

forward to go to the party.

Oh, yeah?

Why is that?

I would like to

see someone there.

Ah, a hook up.

Is she, uh-- is she hot?

Sorry, where are you from?

I'm from Turkey.

Where are you from?

I'm from here.

Where do you think I'm from?

So, you are from America.

What was that?

Where

is your skin from?

Listen, Aladdin,

why don't you go

make our food so we can

eat and go to the party

and get f*cking drunk, yeah?

Card, please.

Uh, sign, please.

What?

I gave him a tip.

Thanks, man.

You're an as*h*le.

You deserve to be sterilized.

Look, everyone

in high school is

just trying to find their way.

Same as life, you know?

We're always doing

the best we can.

Problem is, y'all's best is

about as good as t*ts on a bull.

Don't believe me?

Why don't you stare into

the mirror for a bit.

Tell us all what you see.

Go on, do it.

We dare you to.

How much do I owe you

for the beers, dude?

Forget it.

I have my mom's card.

Oh, sweet.

Let's buy more.

Poor guy isn't

having a good night.

He does have a

presence about him.

I'll give him that.

I'm going to talk

to her tonight.

Dude, you said that before.

Tonight's going

to be different.

I just got this feeling.

Max, you've had three

f*cking years to make a move,

and you never have--

why it's not gonna

be any different.

Hello?

Ground control to Maxie-poo.

Is anyone out there?

What?

What is so different

about tonight?

Wait, tonight's the night you're

finally gonna shag her, huh?

It's not like that

for me and Beckett.

How are you going to fit

her on the skateboard, dude?

You know that's not a thing.

Oh, but you're a big boy, Max.

Why don't you carry on

piggyback to your house, huh?

I'm not trying

to sleep with her.

Oh, why, 'cause it's love?

Maybe.

Dude, if it was real love,

your pants wouldn't be bulging.

Made you look.

Hey, young blood,

don't be afraid.

You go after that girl.

Don't listen to him.

Thank you.

Idiot.

I'm just saying, I'm just

gonna miss high school.

You're gonna miss high school?

Why the f*ck would anyone

miss high school, dude?

I had fun.

What do you mean, you had fun?

High school sucks, dude.

Depends how you look at it.

Well, I'm looking forward

to the party, though.

Are you excited?

Yeah, I guess.

What do you mean, you guess?

We're gonna get

f*cking smashed, dude.

Actually, I think

Beckett's gonna be there.

Yeah.

I hope other people are going

to show up, too, not just her.

You know?

I guess I'm only

there for her, though.

Yeah, I got that.

It's such a great day

for skating, dude.

Do you think I'm weird?

You mean, like,

Asperger's or something?

No, dickwad.

Seriously, I don't even know

where I fit in this world.

I tried out for football

because I was big

and that's what

the school wanted.

I got good grades

from my parents

'cause that's what they wanted.

What about what I want?

I know where I can fit, I just

don't know where I want to fit.

And you think that fit

is with Beckett Montgomery?

I could see myself

marrying a girl like Beckett.

Right.

Like Beckett.

Doesn't mean it has

to be her, my dude.

I gotta take a piss.

Ow.

What?

- Look.

Dude.

What?

Where?

Oh, f*ck me.

What do I do?

Of course.

Well, you do not run up

there and talk to her right

now, if that's

what you're asking.

This could be my only chance.

What if she's not

gonna go to the party?

Dude, she will.

OK?

Tonight's the night.

You know?

Tonight's the night.

Can you see me?

Can anybody f*cking see me?

Can you see me, mom?

Mom, can you see me?

Can you see me?

I miss you.

I have nothing left.

Who's gonna love me?

Hey.

That's my boy.

All right, let me join you.

Oh, god, that's foul.

To us, dude.

See that?

I'm really gonna

miss this town.

Who's even having

this party anyway?

Isn't it funny that no matter

what thoughts might be going

through our heads,

that our bodies can

still somehow always guide us

to where it knows we need to be?

You know, this is the first

time in a really long time

that I've had butterflies.

Of course, it's about

seeing Ashley tonight.

It's literally been

forever since I've

seen her or talked to her.

She knows nothing

about me, my mom.

So are you

going to the party tonight?

Oh, uh, I don't know.

I was thinking about it.

Are you?

Yes.

f*ck it.

I'm gonna go to

the party tonight.

f*ck it.

What's there to lose, huh?

What's there to lose?

Oh, hi.

Hi.

That will be 24.42, please.

Of course.

Honey--

- One day--

--do you have any cash on you?

--I'll buy a house

as big as this one.

What for?

And I will make

my father proud

that he brought us to America

all the way from Turkey.

The food's here.

Well, do you?

Do I what?

You can pay with a card.

Oh, just give me

one moment, will you?

Morrigan, I need that 20 back

that I gave you earlier today.

My cheeks are

beginning to hurt.

But my father says

I should always

be smiling in front

of the customer,

so I deal with the pain.

Frank, can you please

tend to our daughter?

Come on.

You know I'm watching

the match here.

Yeah, I know.

It's always your

needs before ours.

Morrigan!

All right.

Morrigan!

If you have a credit

card, I can take that.

Uh, of course.

Oh, thank you.

Well, she's not in her room.

What do you mean,

she's not in her room?

I mean, she must

have snuck out.

Snuck out?

She's never done that before.

That's because you baby her.

She thinks she can

walk all over you.

Me?

Well, at least I'm able to look

at her when I speak to her.

Your head's always glued

to that TV in there.

I feel very uncomfortable

saying anything right now,

but my father says

I should always

get the customer's signature.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm sorry, but I

need your signature,

please, and your card.

Keep smiling, keep smiling.

Oh, thank you so much.

I think it's time

for the party, then.

I hear music, dude.

Oh, great.

Yeah, we're going.

All right, that's it.

What the f*ck?

What the f*ck are you doing?

- You need to get rid of that.

- You look like a f*cking--

f*ck, dude!

--l*sbian bookshelf.

Hey, grab us some beer.

I'll grab some space

on the couch, yeah?

Hey, man, what's up?

- Yo.

- Wait, DH friend, right?

- Yeah.

How's your night going, man?

Actually pretty good.

How about you?

Good.

We just got here.

Time to get smashed, you know?

- Dope.

Yeah.

What's your name again?

Brent.

Gotcha.

Tony.

- Hey.

- Hey, what's up, Anthony?

Oh, nothing much.

How are you guys doing?

f*cking great.

You're gonna be a

senior next year,

and I can't wait

to cheer you on.

Oh, hey, did-- did they

make you captain yet?

Nah, not yet.

Are they still pissed about

the way the season ended?

Who knows?

I haven't really been spending

too much time with them lately.

f*ck those haters, am I right?

There was always one card

that trumps the pecking

order between student.

And that's the f*cking jocks.

It doesn't matter

that I just graduated

or that I'm older

than all of them.

Jocks rule the world, man.

That's mine.

It's mine now.

Fine, you can have it.

All right, look,

I'm playing, here.

No, it's gonna get

me in too much trouble.

Bull sh*t.

You're still trouble without it.

OK, come on.

We should go.

Bye.

Nice seeing you.

I'll take some.

I don't think so, dude.

Max!

Hurry up.

I did xannie-b*mb one of them.

I don't know which one,

because I didn't close my eyes.

So just, uh, you

know, be wary of that.

What'd you b*mb it with?

Xanax.

My mom got it prescribed

when she caught my dad

cheating with his assistant.

Yo, man.

Can I check that out?

Yeah, sure thing.

Thank you.

Hey, didn't you try out for

football a couple of years back?

Did I?

Yeah, yeah, I did.

Why didn't you go out for it?

I mean, you're a big dude.

Because he spent

all of high school

obsessing over some

girl instead, huh?

Oh, sh*t.

For real?

That's false.

Lower your voice.

now controls almost

a third of the country's 400--

Wait, wait.

--mainly in the north.

They took over 13 areas--

Bro, why watch

the news at a party?

--the

biggest single day advance--

Who the f*ck watches

the news at a party, dude?

And it's more than

doubled the number of--

Look bro, there are

people over there dying

to keep your punk a*s safe.

If you weren't such a p*ssy,

you'd do the same thing.

OK.

Oh my god, A-train.

What's up?

I had your number on

my face at every game.

Well, yours and Tyler's,

but I always cheered

harder when you had the ball.

Well, I see y'all

two got chemistry, so.

Wait, wait.

Don't be like that.

No, no, no.

You trying to go upstairs?

OK.

sh*t.

Yo, A-train, nice

seeing you, bro.

Yeah, I'll catch you.

First, a shot.

Do you want to go?

Yeah, I'm down.

All right.

I'll go first.

I think yours is definitely

the xannie-b*mb, by the way.

Here's your ball, dude.

And

now, fear for their safety.

I've got soldiers

surrendered multiple posts

in the Northern province of

Badakhshan at the weekend.

And the Taliban also captured a

strategic district in Kandahar--

The area has been

the heartland for the group--

The

barrage has them cut out.

Abandoned and

empty, families have

been forced to flee Kandahar

after fierce fighting

between Afghan government

forces and the Taliban.

They say they can't leave.

Yeah!

Yeah, I may be three or

four beers deep right now.

But, I mean, everything

just feels so right, right?

Let me tell you, senior

year is about to be fire.

f*ck you!

sh*t.

Hey, Tommy.

What the f*ck, dude?

Yo, who is she talking to?

I don't know.

Do you think it's Josh?

Did he leave already?

- I don't know, Tommy.

I've been sitting here

drinking beers just like you.

I was taking a piss, man.

I didn't hear sh*t.

Man, you got your f*cking

piss all over my leg.

You always do this to me!

It's not fair!

Back off!

Frank, you're not even my dad.

You've turned mom against me.

You never hug me.

I hate you.

What the f*ck are

you guys looking at?

f*ck it.

Oh, f*ck.

Hey, uh, you want another beer?

Yeah.

And some popcorn for this movie.

Look, I'm not saying--

I know.

I'm not saying you

shouldn't be upset.

I'm saying that her coming home

right now isn't good for anyone.

Just let her get this

out of her system,

and I'll make sure

she gets home safe.

Morrigan may be

a b*tch sometimes,

but she's really lucky to

have a friend like Ashley.

Damn, has she always

looked this cute?

Give me this.

You always control my

life, and I hate it!

It's not OK.

Did you see all that?

Yeah.

It's crazy sh*t.

Yeah.

I'm, uh, Daniel, by the way.

I know.

What the hell's going on?

What's wrong with Morrigan?

Well, her parents weren't

going to let her come tonight,

so she snuck out.

She-- she did what?

Yeah.

She knows she's the

worst liar in the world.

How did she think she was

going to get away with this?

Uh, you know how she gets.

Yo, Josh.

You good?

No, I need to fix this, OK?

No, it's fine.

I'll fix it.

I got it.

Get her home, Ash.

Get her home.

Guys, let's go.

I want to get out of here.

I don't want to be--

guys.

We just got these beers, man.

Yeah, I just opened it, man.

I mean, we can find rides,

but check with Ryan, though.

Guys.

Fine.

I'll see you-- I'll

see you around.

Holy sh*t, is it f*cking

Beckett Montgomery?

What you doing?

You just gonna ignore me again?

No.

I was about to head out.

Oh, yeah?

Why are you such a b*tch?

Huh?

What's the problem?

Oh, f*ck.

Don't you f*cking touch me.

No.

Go smoke some weed or something.

Whew.

That Jack's really,

really getting to me.

Do I look OK?

You look fine.

Yeah?

Hey, aren't you guys

friends with Ryan?

Where's he at?

He's f*cking hot.

- He's upstairs.

- Oh, yeah?

Why don't you go find him?

I will.

b*tch.

Hey, f*ck you, pencil d*ck.

How's she know?

Cheers, cheers.

Hey, wait up.

Now, I don't know what

everybody's been telling you.

For me, the goal of a

party is to get laid.

You know Bethany wouldn't even

let me smash without a condom

on?

I hate wearing condoms.

Oh, Ryan.

Oh.

Wow.

Hey, you want a beer?

Yeah.

Yeah, that sounds good.

Don't be judgmental.

I'm nice to the girls.

I may just hit it and quit

it, but I still say hi to them

in the hallways.

Be right back.

Did you see the way she just

kissed me before she left?

She's totally into me.

And that-- instant turn off.

Looks like I'm late.

Look at all these cars.

In Turkey, teenage kids

like me don't have cars.

In America, everyone does.

Maxie, Maxie, Maxie

You wild for this one

Check.

Let's go.

You thought I was a throw-away

I gotta piss.

You do that.

Wrong

way down a one-way

Wrong way down a one-way

as*h*le.

I was terrified

to stay by your side, yeah

Living in a dream state, yeah

Hey.

What's up?

How's it going?

I'm doing great.

Good.

I'm sorry about

my friend earlier.

He's kind of an a*s.

Oh, it is no problem at all.

My name is Azize.

Max.

Nice to meet you.

Have you seen a girl

named Beckett Montgomery?

You know her?

Yeah, she's my friend.

Have you seen her?

I just got here.

I don't know.

Are you two, like,

dating or something?

No,

we're just friends.

Yeah, I haven't seen

much of her either.

Oh.

Well, are you two friends also?

I don't label it,

but, uh, kind of.

You have a crush on her, huh?

Yeah, big one.

Well, if I see

her, I will let her know.

Thanks.

Let me see who

else is in here.

Knock yourself out.

See you later.

See you later.

Poof.

Bye.

We'll

walk in the light

I'll be all right,

all right, all right

I'll be all right,

all right, all right

I'll be all right,

all right, all right

I'll be all right, all right

Maxie, you can't avoid this

destination for so long

Ooh, heaven help

me, I'm so close

Give me just another one, yeah

Man, I made it to this

high place, high place

Man, let that b*tch

vibrate, vibrate

Yeah, got you nervous

like a prom date

Oh, turn on that roaming

was the only way to go

You been on your own now

You been on your own now

You been on your own now

Feeling so alone now

Feeling so alone now

Feeling so alone now

Feeling so alone now

Hey, good morning, good morning

It's time to wake up, yeah

All right, all right

What the f*ck?

There you are.

Yo, what are

you doing in here?

- You don't want this?

- No.

I'm not gonna do that to Josh.

What are you doing?

Josh didn't want this.

You don't want it either?

No, that's not

what I'm saying.

Don't you wanna touch me?

Who is it?

Beckett.

God, you scared me.

Hey, Azize.

What are you doing in here?

Why aren't you in there

with everyone else?

What do you think I'm doing?

I'm hiding.

Are you crying?

No.

Come with me.

And we'll say hi to people.

Yeah.

I mean, I came here to talk to

one of my old, good friends.

But, anyway, when--

when did you get here?

I just got here.

And I made a friend already.

Oh, well, that's--

that's really cool.

His name is Max.

He's an interesting guy.

Come with me, please.

You can read the comics later.

Can you give me a minute?

So there's a part of me

that wants to go back inside

and talk to Ashley.

She seems to be pretty caught

up with her new friends.

Maybe next time-- if

there is a next time.

Oh, my bad.

All right, excuse me.

Oh, I'm-- I'm very sorry.

What the f*ck, dude?

I'm very sorry.

Please excuse me.

Let me just--

No.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

You don't f*ck with

a man's alcohol, dog.

You're f*cking dead.

- Please.

- All right?

Please, let me--

Let me by.

No, no, no, no, no.

You've done too much to me,

too much to everybody here.

Got it?

I just want to get by.

You're f*cking 6 feet deep.

Got it?

You're done.

I just want to get by.

I'm very sorry.

Get by?

Get by?

n*gga, we all trying to get by.

What you even doing here?

This party is for

Americans, got it?

Go back to f*cking Afghanistan.

I'm not from Afghanistan.

Stupid.

What the f*ck you say, b*tch?

Huh?

What'd you say, boy?

Leave me alone.

f*ck you, t*rror1st.

Sand n*gg*r, that's

your name, ain't it?

Sand n*gg*r, answer

to that sh*t.

Don't call me that.

That's your f*cking name.

You gonna answer to

your name, right?

Oh, that's-- is that

not how it works

back where you're from, right?

Leave me alone.

You can say whatever

the f*ck you want.

And you can do whatever

the f*ck you want.

You can drop buildings

on people like me

'cause you f*cking want to.

I'm not a f*cking t*rror1st.

You said that sh*t before.

I don't give a f*ck

about your damn excuses.

Sand n*gg*r.

I'm not a n*gg*r.

Don't call me that.

I'll call you whatever

the f*ck I want,

especially if it's

your g*dd*mn name.

Sand n*gg*r.

You are the n*gg*r!

You are the n*gg*r!

Yo, yo, no!

Leave me the f*ck alone!

I'mma f*ck you up!

You're done!

- He's even worth it!

f*cking dead, m*therf*cker!

Yo, let's go.

Did you just hear

what he just called me?

- You know he's--

- Off me!

He don't even drink.

--f*cking handle

people, all right?

It's not worth it.

Come on.

f*cking dead!

Get the f*ck off me.

Leave me.

Uh, who is it?

Ryan, it's me, bro.

Look, I want to go home.

Do you need a ride or anything?

Uh, uh, no, no no, no.

Cool.

I'm coming in.

No, no, no, no.

Wait, wait, wait.

Bro, it's not what it

looks like, I swear.

Morrigan,

Morrigan, Morrigan.

- What?

- Morrigan!

You never wanted to touch

me, now you're touching me?

What?

Morrigan!

Dude, it's not what

it looks like, man.

Don't!

Stay away from me.

Bro!

Stay away from me!

Now he's gone.

Stop!

Come here.

Yo!

Yo, Josh!

Will someone please tell him

it's not what it looks like?

I can still remember my

father being beaten up.

My father was too

afraid to be there.

That is why we moved down here.

I'm like everyone else.

I'm not a t*rror1st.

We are not a t*rror1st.

I hope I just get the chance

to apologize to Anthony.

What a relief.

sh*t, where's my phone?

You don't think anyone

actually poisoned her, do you?

Oh, f*ck, Morrigan.

What's going on?

What can I do?

Just-- just go get Ashley.

Just-- come on.

Let's get you to the bathroom.

See?

I'm a nice guy.

What are you doing?

Why is her shirt off?

She came in here like this.

Josh saw us, and

he's freaking out.

I'm just trying to

do the right thing.

It's fine.

Just let me help.

All right.

f*ck.

I think it's too

late for an apology.

Thanks, by the way.

I-- I'm sorry if you thought I

was assuming anything earlier.

It's just, you do have

a bit of a reputation.

It's fine.

I mean, 10 minutes earlier,

you would have been right.

Except it wasn't with

Morrigan, it was with Bethany.

You know you don't have to

have sex with girls for them

to like you, right?

Yeah, but I don't know,

maybe that's the thing.

Maybe I don't want

them to like me.

Whatever you want.

But it all starts with

loving yourself first.

- Yeah.

- OK.

Yeah.

I'm done.

I guess I'll take her to my car.

Can you help me--

- Yeah.

- --get her in my car?

Come on, let's go home.

Let's go home.

Come on, Morrigan.

Let's go home.

Let's get you up.

Come on.

1, 2, 3.

There you go.

Do you think I'm sexy?

Feels good to get

it all out, don't it?

It's not right.

Why'd you think I

joined recon, Antho?

There's only so

much Coach will let

you get away with on the field.

It's a totally different

game on a battle

b*ttlefield, b*ttlefield.

Please, just leave me alone.

You're the one that

keeps letting me in.

Let me ask you something.

Did you picture your

dad's face on that kid

you were hitting just now?

'Cause I picture that son of

a b*tch whenever I care about

blew away.

Why'd you have to go die, bro?

I'm not dead!

I live inside your head.

I like it here.

It's nice-- and loud!

Stupid f*ck.

I gotta fess up.

Ooh.

I'm loving this.

They gonna lock a n*gga

like you up for years.

Once you put yourself in a

cage, it's hard to get out, bro.

It doesn't matter.

I could have k*lled that kid.

sh*t.

Ain't nobody gonna say nothing.

He goes to our school.

He ain't coming back

after what you did to him.

He's weak, just like his daddy.

There's a place for

people like them.

Just like there's a

place for me and you.

I don't want to

be like you anymore.

I'm the one in control!

Yeah, uh, I'm at a party.

And I just beat

up a kid real bad.

What are you doing?

Yeah.

Uh-huh.

My name--

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

--is Anthony White.

1250 Hillside Drive,

Hillside Drive.

I'll be waiting for you outside.

You won't be able to bounce

back from this one, Antho.

You got too many shadows.

Maybe you're right.

Maybe I won't bounce

back from this.

Maybe you can.

I'm scared, man.

You ain't got the guts.

Oh, yeah?

Well, let's just

see what happens

when a bunch of scared,

small-town, white-a*s cops

try to pull up on me.

Let them see what

I got for them.

This town ain't

gonna never be the same.

Gotta be remembered

for something, right?

I always thought it would

be for scoring touchdowns.

Can't wait for a show.

I love you, bro.

Dear Jesus, thank you for

ruining my f*cking life!

Brent, you b*stard!

I should f*cking end you!

It doesn't matter.

Nothing matters.

No!

I did nothing wrong!

f*ck!

f*ck.

f*ck!

f*ck.

I'm so f*cked.

Dad's gonna k*ll me.

So long, senior year.

You all right, kid?

What are you doing

out here at this hour?

Just going for

a drive, officer.

You been drinking tonight?

No, not a drop, nothing.

So if I give you a

breathalyzer right now,

everything will come back clean?

I swear.

I don't drink, ever.

Can I take a look at your

license and registration?

Sure thing.

It's in the glove compartment.

I'm just going to reach

over there, if that's OK.

And here's my insurance, too.

Honestly, Officer, I just found

out one of my best friends

was hooking up with

my girlfriend--

ex-girlfriend.

She broke up with me a week ago.

Sorry, kid.

Were you at that party tonight,

the one up on Hillside?

How'd you know

about the party?

You go to City High?

Yeah.

My sister's Ashley Kohler.

She told me about it.

My ex is Ashley's best friend.

Morrigan's your ex?

Sure you haven't been drinking?

I don't drink, ever.

I believe in God.

I don't care if you

believe in Santa Claus.

78-25, code 6.

Excuse me.

105 North Avenue 52.

Yeah, this is 1L19.

Responding now.

Speaking of that party,

something's happened,

so I'm gonna let you go.

I could give you a ticket for

not wearing your seat belt,

but I won't.

Now, next time, don't

unbuckle it before the officer

gets to the window.

Got it?

Yes, sir.

Thank you, Officer.

Officer, hold on.

What's going on at the party?

What's happening?

I don't know.

I guess we're going to

find out pretty soon, kid.

Have a good night.

We got a call there

was a disturbance here.

Yeah, what the

f*ck y'all want?

Huh?

Hey, calm down!

What the f*ck

are you even doing?

Just calm down!

--of me?

Nah, that's the

f*ck y'all want.

Y'all need to get that

m*therf*cker out of here.

Don't be coming to

me like this sh*t.

Yeah, I called y'all to

get his a*s out of here.

Calm down.

No, f*ck you, f*ck you.

- Everybody, f*ck you too.

- He's got a g*n!

Let's go!

He's got a g*n!

Let's go then!

Get off me!

Stop resisting.

Look at me, man.

- Get off!

- Look at me!

- No!

- I get it, OK?

- Ah!

I know why you're doing this.

I know why you're

doing this, man.

All right?

Look at me.

You remember me?

You remember me?

Huh?

Jim something.

What?

James.

It's James.

All right?

I played ball with

your brother, Mike.

All right?

I miss him, too, man.

I miss him, too.

But he wouldn't

have wanted this.

All right?

I promise you that.

Not in a million years would

he have wanted you to do this,

all right?

All right?

Come on, man.

Let it out.

It's OK, brother.

It's OK.

He's all right.

He's all right.

It's all right, man.

It's all right.

It's all right, brother.

All right?

All right, I'm

gonna roll you over.

I'm gonna handcuff

you, all right?

You gonna relax?

You're all right, bro.

You're all right.

All right, come on, man.

You got him?

Yeah, I got him.

They

gonna lock a n*gga like you

up for years.

You OK?

Yeah.

But once you

put yourself inside a cage,

it's hard to get out.

The story's just

gonna wash away--

Hey, code 4.

--just

like blood down the drain.

Put your knee up.

Get you on your knee, all right?

We're gonna bring you

up on the count of 3.

We're gonna get you on your

knee, Anthony, all right?

1, 2, 3.

There you go.

- Come on, bring him up.

Gonna get you all the way up.

Ready?

You got it.

All right.

You're all right, man.

You're all right.

Open the door.

Open the car.

Yes.

Watch your head.

Put your leg up.

Watch your head.

Where are his parents?

I don't know.

Are you all right, man?

That could have

been really ugly.

All right, I'm gonna

call his mom, all right?

It's gonna be all right.

It's party time!

Where is everyone?

The music stopped.

That's never a good thing.

Oh, sh*t.

Are the cops here?

Is she OK?

Yes.

Hey, do you know

what's going on here?

Beckett?

You know-- you know my name?

How?

Yeah, we had, um, AP Bio

together with Mr. Stevenson

your freshman year.

I was a sophomore.

I, uh, signed your

yearbook once, too.

Really?

Oh, were you the,

"have a great summer?"

Yeah, it was

something like that.

Well, thanks.

Of course.

Do you happen to

know what's going on?

Yeah, that kid from

the falafel shop,

Azize or something--

- Azize!

--got the sh*t beat

out of him by A-train.

Azize!

Azize!

Azize, wait.

Azize.

Are you OK?

Is he-- is he OK?

There you are.

I will be fine, Beckett.

It is my fault.

Don't be mad at me.

Please.

It's not your fault, OK?

Give me your phone.

I'm gonna call--

- No.

- I'm gonna call somebody.

- No, no, no.

- Are you OK?

No, Beckett, don't

call my father.

He'll be scared.

Please, I will be fine.

It does hurt a little bit more

in real life than, you know,

in comic books.

You deserve

a drink, Azize.

No, stop.

I will be all right.

Azize.

I'm gonna be right

here with you, OK?

I'm not gonna leave you.

I'm not gonna leave you, OK?

You should enjoy the party.

No, no, no, relax.

I'm right here, OK?

Who's-- who's gonna go with him?

He can't go alone.

Hey, hey, hey.

Hey.

Sorry, this is just a lot.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

He's gonna be fine, OK?

I meant to ask you earlier.

How's your mom doing?

I wanted to ask,

but then you left.

And I didn't know if

you wanted to talk, so.

Yeah.

What?

What is it?

What?

You're making me nervous.

She passed away this year.

She k*lled herself

in my bathroom.

It's OK.

My god, Beck.

It's OK.

I'm-- I'm sorry.

It's OK.

What?

How-- how would I not know?

It's my-- we stopped talking.

And then, I assumed it's

because you're being fake.

But then it's really

because your mom died,

and I was too selfish to ask.

So it's my fault. I'm

always here for you.

I miss you.

I miss you so much.

It's OK.

Just-- just like before.

We'll do it.

We'll get through it together.

OK.

OK?

I'm taking her home.

Do you want to ride with me?

You can stay over.

No, I'm going to go

ahead and follow Azize.

- He'll be fine.

- And then I'll walk home.

- I'll text you tomorrow.

- OK.

You're fine, OK?

I'd like that.

OK.

Be careful.

Yo, Max, we

heading out or what?

Yeah.

Max?

Max?

You think I could

see your phone?

Yeah.

It's dead.

Here, you can use mine.

I swear I'm not gonna

stalk you or anything.

Maybe this year, when

you sign my yearbook,

I'll be able to read it.

Your handwriting

is pretty shitty.

Thanks for knowing who I was.

Give me-- give me a call.

I'm sorry if I

don't believe you

because of all the things

have been going on,

so I'm going to

have to test you.

It's all right, Officer.

She's my sister.

Yeah?

Yeah, I got it.

You OK?

Yeah.

Hey, Beckett.

How you doing?

Good.

All right.

Just wanted to know you

guys are getting home safe.

Did you guys f*cking drug her?

Come on.

I think she got

roofied or something.

Yeah.

We

run and we run and we just

keep running from our problems.

We never really

learn how to just

face them when they come at us.

Instead, we hide everything for

the sake of the people around us

to fit in, to be

somebody, to feel normal.

Why does any of

that matter when--

when all we have in

the end is each other?

Shouldn't that matter?

Shouldn't that be enough?

But right now and right

here, I decide for all of us

to stop running.

Stop!

What a relief.

All right

All right

All right

It's Jimmy

Hey, good morning, good morning

It's time to wake up, yeah

Good morning, good morning

It's time to wake up, yeah

Good morning, good morning

It's time to wake up, oh, yeah
