SHELBY: MUCHAS GRACIAS!

RILEY AND SHELBY SPIT OUT THE SUBSTANCE THAT WAS IN THEIR MOUTHS THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ROOTBEER.

SHELBY: UMM…THIS DOES NOT TASTE LIKE ROOT BEER TO ME! RILEY AGREES.

ERIKA: YOU’RE JUST REALLY EXHAUSTED FROM DANCING; WATER PROBABLY DOESN’T EVEN TASTE LIKE WATER.

SHELBY: YA, YOU’RE PROBABLY RIGHT.

ERIKA: I AM. WANT ANOTHER GLASS.

SHELBY: YA, SURE WHY NOT! WHAT’S ROOTBEER THAT TASTE WEIRD GOING TO DO ANYTHING TO ME!

ERIKA: THAT’S THE SPIRIT!

[SCENE 4] [ACT 2]

FADE IN: 2 HOURS GO BY. SHELBY, RILEY ARE DRUNK AND THAT’S WHEN SARAH AND ERIKA DECIDE TO BRING OUT THE DOPE.



ONCE ERIKA AND SARAH PULL OUT THE DOPE, SHELBY GETS BACK TO HER NORMAL SELF AND RELIZES WHAT THEY ARE DOING. SHE TRIES TO NOCK SOME SENSE INTO RILEY BEFORE SHE DOES IT BUT ERIKA PRESSURES HER TO DO SO.



SHELBY: CONCERNED FOR RILEY. RILEY, I THINK THEIR ABOUT TO DO SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULDN’T KNOW ABOUT, WE SHOULD LEAVE.

RILEY: BARLEY HEARING ANYTHING SHELBY SAID, GRABS ANOTHER GLASS AND DRINKS IT, THEN ANSWERS. GIRL…YOU NEED TO SETTLE DOWN…THERE JUST GETTING SO…SO… (FALLS OVER FROM DRINKING)

ERIKA: OH NOW IS SOMEONE NOT HAVING A GOOD TIME AT MY PARTY? BECAUSE IF THERE IS ANYONE WHO ISN’T I HAVE A FEW THINGS THAT THEY CAN DO TO OC-U-PIE SOME TIME.

SARAH: (MEGAN HOLDS UP A BAGGIE WITH SOME WEIRD SUBSTANCE IN IT) SEE, WE HAVE SOME TRAIL MIX. OR… (HOLDS UP A CONTAINER WITH A COUPLE OF STRAWS) WE HAVE POWERED SUGAR IF YOU WANT SOME.

SHELBY: (TAKES RILEY BY THE HAND AS IF SHE WAS GOING TO REPREMAND HER; MEGAN AND ERIKA STAY BEHIND TALKING.) OKAY, RILEY. THIS IS THE TIME WHERE YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO ME. YOU NEED TO HEAR ME ON THIS ON.IF I’M CORRECT, MEGAN AND ERIKA ARE GOING TO TRY TO MAKE US DO DRUGS. OKAY SO THIS IS ARE CHANCE TO WALK AWAY, WALK AWAY FROM THE ROAD OF DEATH.

RILEY: (RILEY INTURUPS SHELBY.) LAUGHS. YOU’RE FUNNY; YOU REALLY THINK THEIR TRYING TO MAKE US DO DRUGS? WOW!

SHELBY: NO! SERIOUSLY! RILEY! THAT “TRAIL MIX” OF THEIR’S ISN’T TRAIL MIX, THEY’RE PILLS. NOW TELL ME WHY WOULD YOU POP A PILL IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS, OR WHAT THE SIDE EFFECT IS? OR WHAT IT’S GOING TO DO TO YOU? ONE OF THOSE SIDE AFFECTS COULD BE DEATH! SAME GOES WITH THEIR “POWERED SUGAR” IS CRACK! THAT COULD DO THE SAME THING AS THE PILLS. YOU COULD DIE FROM IT, AND I DON’T WANT TO BURY MY BEST FRIEND; WOULD YOU?

RILEY STARTS TO THINK A LITTLE.

RILEY: YOU’RE RI… (ERIKA INTURUPS HER THINKING PROCESS.)

ERIKA: NOW ARE YOU GOING TO LISTEN TO THIS TIN CAN? SHE’S JUST MAKING UP NONSENCE. COME ON RILEY. (SHE PUSHES RILEY TOWARDS MEGAN. MEGAN LETS RILEY PICK WHAT SHE WANTS)

ERIKA: (GLARRING AT SHELBY.)

SHELBY LEAVES, AND AUTOMATICALLY CALLS THE POLICE TO REPORT AN ILLEGAL DRUGS USE.



[SCENE 5] [ACT 3]

FADE IN: SARAH, ERIKA, AND RILEY ARE ALL SITTING AROUND DOING DOPE AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN RILEY STARTS TO OD.



RILEY OD’S ON CRACK AND PILLS. SARAH AND ERIKA DROP HER AT A HOSPITAL. THEN SARAH AND ERIKA ARE CAUGHT BY THE POLICE.

SARAH: (RELIZES THAT RILEY IS ODING.) OH MY GOD! WE NEED TO A HOSPITAL, I CAN’T DRIVE CAN YOU?

ERIKA: I ONLY HAVE MY PERMENT!

SARAH: THAT’LL DO! LET’S GO WE NEED TO HURRY!

ERIKA: OKAY YOU GRAB HER HEAD I’LL GRAB HER FEET!

THEY GET INTO THE CAR AND ERIKA IS DRIVING AS FAST AS SHE CAN. THEY GET TO THE HOSPITAL AND SARAH HOPS OUT OF THE BACK SEAT. STARTS TO PULL THE RILEY OUT, THEN ERIKA JOINS IN AND HELPS. THEY GET HER CLOSE TO THE DOORS AND THEN HIT THE EMERGENCY BUTTON. THEY QUICKLY RUSH TOWARDS THEIR CAR, AND THEN THE COPS CAME.

THEY ARE ARRESTED. COP (MEGAN) SAYS: “YOU ARE IN THE ACT OF COMMITTING DRUG USAGE, DRUG DEALING, AND DRIVING WITHOUT A LISCENCE.”



“YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT. ANYTHING YOU SAY CAN AND WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU IN A COURT OF LAW. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO SPEAK TO AN ATTORNEY, AND TO HAVE AN ATTORNEY PRESENT DURING ANY QUESTIONING. IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD A LAWYER, ONE WILL BE PROVIDED FOR YOU AT GOVERNMENT EXPENSE.”
