Ren goes over to the cd player and puts in her CD of grunge tracks and starts dancing.
ASHLEY: Oh my god! What is this noise?
REN: It’s called music. You should try it sometime instead of your cotton candy crap.
ASHLEY: Well I think I speak for everyone when I say its better than this garbage. Katie, do you have anything? All my CDs are in my car.
Katie has two or 3 CDs. One is not pop and confuses Ashley. One is the latest pop album, and one is the mixtape Lauren made for her 3 years ago with Wannabe on it.
ASHLEY: Omigod, this mix!! Remember the Wannabe dance?
KATIE: No
ASHLEY: Katie! You were the one who taught it to me!
KATIE:
ASHLEY: Whatever, maybe it’ll come back.
She puts on the track. Ren scoffs when she hears it. Stacy gets excited.
STACY: Oh my god! Wannabe?!? Katie! Is this the mix tape Lauren made us freshman year??? Throw focus to Katie, then Ren
KAITIE:
ASHLEY: Wait! Are you saying LaLa’s Dance Mix was made by Ren Davis?! React to Stacy then throw focus to Katie.
KATIE & REBELS:
ASHLEY: I just thought LaLa was like LA vibes or something.
REN: Please don’t!
ASHLEY: To Ren Should I start calling you LaLa now!
STACY: (To Katie ) Do you remember the dance?
KATIE:
STACY: (To Ren ) You were the one who taught us! Do you remember it?
REN: No I don’t remember that lame choreography… You’re the dancer here. Do you remember?
STACY: I think I remember some of it! Let’s try for old time sake. Looking at both Katie and Ren.
ASHLEY: Doing the dance was my idea.
STACY: (oblivious to her shade) Yeah! Let’s do it. Danny/ Sandra you should learn it to.
DANNY/ SANDRA:
STACY: It’s suuuper easy. There’s choreography for like 1 chorus, and then they just like run around and pose for the rest of it.
REN: Sarcastically. Does everyone else wanna learn the dance too?
STACY: Yeah, come on!
Beat for participant reactions. Stacy encourages everyone until most agree. Even Ren says she’ll join although reluctant.
STACY: (to Ashley) Start it back from the begining.
Ren and the rebels, pretend it’s stupid/ mock it, but really they’re enjoying it too.
Whenever participants start to protest that they’ll get in trouble, Rebecca is the only inter-actor character concerned.
REN: Eh, I play music all the time in detention.
ANYONE: If Sharpe is making a call at the pay phone, he won’t hear it from there!
STACY: Besides he wanted us to talk to each other outside of our cliques! That’s what we’re doing.
If ALEX and REBECCA try to turn it off. Ashley gets Jake and Brandon to guard the boombox.
STACY: Oh, come on Rebecca! You’re not gonna go to hell because you danced to the SPICE girls.
Rebecca and Alex finally join in.
Just as they’re getting it, Principal Sharpe returns.
Principal Sharpe: What in the Hell is going on here?
