SIDE 1

JACK SCOTT

Well, folks, there seems to be a problem with the lights. Please make an orderly exit from the gym and head straight to the theater. Move it or lose it people - let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go!

CHAD

Run, Troy - you don't have much time.

(As BRAINIACS exit the lab, TAYLOR sees GABRIELLA dawdling.)

TAYLOR

Gabriella, what are you still doing here?

TROY, GABRIELLA

What do you mean?

CHAD

You want to sing? It's now or never.

TAYLOR

My laptop can only keep the lights out in the gym and chem lab for about five minutes.

GABRIELLA, TROY

You guys are the best!

CHAD, TAYLOR

Run!

END

 

SIDE 2

GABRIELLA

How crazy was that?!? Wow, so this is your private hideout?

TROY

Thanks to the Horticulture Club. I come up here when I want to be alone.

GABRIELLA

Must be tricky being the coach's son.

TROY

He's gonna freak when he hears about the singing thing.

GABRIELLA

You're worried?

TROY

Sometimes I don't want to be "the basketball guy." I just want to be, you know, me.

GABRIELLA

I know what you mean. At my other schools I was always "the freaky math girl." I hated it.

TROY

But you can't let people stop you from doing what you want to do, right?

GABRIELLA

Remember how cool kindergarten was? You'd meet somebody, and ten minutes later you were best friends.

TROY

Yeah, they didn't care if you could shoot hoops or solve equations.

GABRIELLA

Right. So you really want to do the callbacks?

TROY

Hey, just call me "freaky callback boy."

GABRIELLA

Thanks for showing me your top-secret hiding place. Just like kindergarten.

TROY

Be your best friend.
