I didn't need a lift. I'm basically at school already.

This looks better.

And what matters is how things look?

Your boyfriend left the party with another girl.

It was tragic.

You need to correct that visual.

There's Donte. Not going to talk to him?

I was thinking no.

Cos then, if I don't...

He never gets a chance to dump you?

Yeah! Yeah, that's the theory, yeah.

Be realistic.

He can still end things, if he wants.

He's got a phone.

Ugh...

Yes, OK, yep, you're right.

[sighs]

Donte.

-Hey. -Hey.

I heard they made you basketball captain. That's great.

-Hey, Mika! -Thanks.

Hey, Mika! Loving your grandma underwear.

[laughter]

The little girl's all grown up now!

Poor Mika.

Yeah, Ronny's at it again.

Again? What do you mean, again?

Nothing.

Hey, do you want to get some burgers later?

I've got a game, but maybe after that?

Say 5-ish...at Sam's?

Yeah, we haven't done that in...ages, actually.

-So, yeah. -See you then.

Do you like Kitty Wei?

Just cos, if you do, I don't want burgers.

I just want the painful part over with.

I like her as a person.

You're my girlfriend.

Why?

I don't even know what you like about me any more.

It's cos, on the surface, you're this pretty, popular girl.

But underneath, there's so much more.

And I like that.

I like it a lot.

OK.

So, burgers later, yeah?

Cool.

Hey, John.

Are you skipping PE again?

Won't Mr Harrington summon your dad now?

Yeah, good luck getting hold of him.

Hey, I can't do what we planned.

I can't risk messing things up with Donte.

We need you to distract Ronny for half an hour.

Step one of any DGM job is information gathering.

OK, but isn't it someone else's turn to fake laugh and smile?

I don't see Ronny agreeing to date Bree or Margot. Hardly his scene.

OK, and you?

-He knows I'm friends with Mika. -Pick it up!

OK, so, basically I have no choice?

-Of course you have a choice. -Faster!

But if you choose not to do this, our plan is ruined.

Kitty, knees up!

-OK, OK, I'll let you know. -Girls, stop talking.

What was that about?

I was telling her to stay away from my boyfriend.

Faster, girls, come on.

[school bell rings]

It is so cute that you and Donte are going for a date night.

Does Sam still do those double-tower cheeseburgers?

Rex, you're not going.

Seeing you devour half a pound of meat would kill their vibe.

- Does it kill our vibe? - Hey.

Hmm. Hey. Miks, do you want to sit with us?

Rex, really?

It's his sister. She's going through a hard time.

But she still wears those shoes.

It's OK, I'm not staying.

There's something I need to do.

Hey, Ronny, I want to talk to you.

-Sorry, Miks. The answer's still no. -I don't want to go out with you.

-So why did you send me the photo? -I didn't. You...

Look, you need to learn how to take rejection.

Because, trust me, cup size that low,

it's going to happen again and again.

Whoa, quit talking to my sister like that.

Dude, come on.

Don't tell me you think she's hot!

That's messed up.

You just...

You just shut up.

OK. But, Mika...

..do me a favour.

Don't send me any more of those photos.

I've thrown up enough for one lifetime.

-No, you're all right, mate. -Rex, stop, please.

Please.

- Did you at least bring the cookies? - Of course.

Debate club isn't debate club without cookies.

Did you bring the mascot?

Obviously.

Perfect.

It would be if Ed hadn't invited that loser Margot.

Hey.

What?

[music through headphones]

Chris. Christopher!

Mate, you can't let him get to you.

He's acting like it meant nothing, Logan.

Come here, man. Come here.

[sobs]

-It's OK, I'm out of here. -I'm sorry.

Yeah?

How am I supposed to steal your lunch if I can't even find you?

Except you just did find me.

Yes, but you didn't wait for me after English,

which means I have to kill you.

Ah, can you make it quick and painless?

No, it's going to hurt.

So, come on, then, spill the beans.

Gross.

What's with your new lunchtime plans?

Is this supposed to be band practice?

You realise you're missing a band?

No, because I'm the band.

He means he's in the band. He is in our band.

So, you're, like, in a band with...

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

OK.

Well...

Hey, I'm Bree.

Like the cheese?

I like cheese.

Yeah, me too.

And we actually have French together.

I've never noticed.

Of course you didn't.

Cool. Well, if you want to watch me play, I know all the chords.

Do you know what? Maybe another time.

I've got to go get me some disappointing grades.

[cymbal crashes]

[plays a weak note]

What?

[school bell rings]

[lively chatter]

Oh, God, I forgot my calculator. I'll catch you up, OK?

Ronny! Hey! I heard what you said about Mika earlier.

Oh... Is Rex still bugging out over it?

Because he just needs to chill.

Like, it's just funny.

Yeah, that's what I told him.

-Yeah? -Yeah.

I mean, it's not your fault you're not interested.

You can't help who you like.

How are things with you and Donte?

Uh...

Complicated.

Hey, do you want to maybe grab an ice cream after school?

Yeah.

Yeah, OK.

OK, meet me at Cafe Beyond, yeah?

[exhales]

You're leaving?

I don't care if I get detention, I can't be here right now.

-What about practice? -What about it?

You can't let what's happened control your life.

I'm not letting it. It just is.

Margot Rivers.

Is it ego or apathy that means you haven't yet chosen

an extracurricular?

I...I was going to. I...

You've ignored my colleagues' requests to make a decision.

So it's either ego - in that you think you're too good for it -

or apathy - in that you simply don't care.

I'm just not a group activity person.

When you first arrived, you signed up for Model UN,

school council, extended bio and environmental physics. Mm?

Now, an extra curricular is a requirement.

You may be clever, but if you can't socialise,

how is anyone going to know?

Hey! I've been looking for you.

Um...

I just wanted to say thank you.

Why? I didn't do anything.

Well, most people would have posted the hell

out of Christopher's meltdown, so....

I like being able to sleep at night.

-That's rare in these parts. -Margot!

Being stood up by you is going to seriously damage

my reputation for not caring.

I'm sure you managed to find a nonchalant comment to save the day.

That's not the point. I thought you were going to join debate club.

-What changed? -I heard what they said about me.

But I still have to pick something.

Pick drama club.

Because I'm so gregarious I'd make a natural actor?

Little-known fact about drama club -

you don't actually have to be an actor.

In fact, we're looking for a stage manager at the moment.

You're in drama club?

Hey, I'm not just in drama club.

I played Romeo last term. It was pretty moving.

I'm actually kind of surprised you don't know who I am, but...

Uh...

Seriously, though, think about it.

[phone vibrates]

You won't regret that.

Hey, Chris?

Where's a nonchalant comment when you need one?

Yeah, but you still could have told me.

I was trying to save you from embarrassing yourself.

Hey, just because I think a guy's hot

doesn't mean I can't string a sentence together.

Yet the guy in question can't.

He must have even a tiny bit of a brain.

You don't like stupid people.

Well, he does know all the chords, so...

Right, tonight's movie marathon, I'm thinking films with dogs.

-A solid genre. -Mm-hm.

Yeah, but another night. It's my turn to have a thing.

See, I'm waiting for you to tell me what the thing is.

A girl's got to have some secrets.

Hello, hello, hello.

-Hi. -How are we?

-Very good. How are you? -Amazing.

Oh, good to get out of this. You look stunning.

That dress is just gorgeous.

-Oh! -Is it a special occasion?

Coast is clear.

Time.

-Bree, are you ready? -Yeah, I'm at Ronny's house.

You don't want any ice cream?

You see this?

It's basically a temple.

OK. Um...

So, we've been in the same social circle for a while now,

but still I don't really know anything about you.

-I'm at the door. -Stay quiet and alert.

Done.

[beeping]

I've disabled the alarm, but they might have backup.

OK, I'm in.

I'll pump some iron,

and then I'll have the oat-based protein drink for dinner.

Right. Um...

And do you ever have just, like, a normal meal?

No.

I've got to look after the guns.

His fridge is literally full of protein shakes.

You're meant to be looking for his laptop, not a snack.

Yeah, but know your enemy, right?

You should come and sit over here.

Next to me.

Well, it might be harder to talk if I was going to sit over there.

Isn't the talking part of this date over with?

Well, it's not really a date. I'm with Donte.

Who are you trying to kid?

No-one.

I get it.

You're trying to kid yourself,

telling yourself you're not that into me.

[she laughs]

No. I just think, you know, boys and girls can be friends.

It doesn't always have to be...

Ah, come and sit next to me.

No.

Come and sit next to me or...I'm leaving.

I'm serious.

OK, I've got it.

OK, Margot. Please tell me you know his password.

His laptop is ron, dash, the, dash, total, dash, bomb.

I can't wait to bring this guy down.

Get the whole hard drive.

OK, so, the whole hard drive, yeah?

[Ronny] You know...

..I'm not an idiot.

I never said you were.

You didn't need to. It's obvious.

You thought you could just string me along,

just enough to make Donte jealous.

Bree, update?

46% downloaded.

I know you're using me.

OK.

Then why say yes?

Kicks and giggles.

[camera shutter clicks]

This will entertain the masses.

Do you spend your whole life being a dirtbag

or is it just in your free time?

It's a pretty full-time commitment.

Now...

..I can just think of one way you can stop me

from sharing this photo with, hmm...

..all of Bannerman.

I gave you a choice.

Bree, are you OK?

What's happening?

I could not spend one more second with him, OK? All right?

I just could not do it.

Did you hear that?

Ronny's on the move. Get out.

[door opens]

Except, Margot, what time did you say his parents are back?

His dad works in London, so late,

and his mum has yoga till six.

OK, so who can I hear downstairs?

If you can hear someone, you need to get out of there.

Yeah, I will, I just...

I wasn't sure you'd be here.

Cos of this?

Guess I was curious to see how you'd explain it.

It's just a stupid mistake.

And it wasn't even a kiss - he just made it look like one.

Doesn't matter.

We're still done.

Wait... Wait!

I didn't even do anything, all I did was go and get ice cream with him.

You left the party with Kitty!

Don't put them in the same category.

Kitty is a decent person.

I don't know why anyone with a soul would spend time with Ronny.

Well, I...

Well, I can't explain.

I wish I could. I just... I can't.

I don't even know you, Olivia.

Yes, you do.

-You said, under the surface... -I was wrong.

I've been wrong for months.

-Thinking that there's more to you. -There is!

On the surface, you're this popular rich girl.

And underneath, you're exactly the same.

Oh, hey, how was school?

Oh, also, can you just take over here?

Cos I'm going to be late.

-Of course. -Thanks. And save me some.

Nah, I think I'll eat it all.

So, er, what job is it tonight?

-King's Arms. -Is that the one with...

[both] ..one working song on the jukebox.

Yeah, that's the one. Oh, don't forget to call your gran.

-Oh, can I skip tonight? -No, afraid not.

She pays your fees. You get to tell her just how great your life is.

That's the deal.

See you later.

[door opens and closes]

Remember how sociable she used to be?

I was a kid!

Of course I said hi to every person I met.

But you can quit worrying.

I joined the drama club.

And that's pretty much the most social one there is.

What happened?

You look terrible.

I just...fell.

Also, hi, Dad.

Hello, Bree.

I thought you weren't back until tomorrow.

I had to cut my trip short.

Harrington wants to see me first thing about your absences from PE.

In my defence, PE really isn't that important.

It is to him.

Are you going out?

Constituency heard I was back, asked for a meeting.

-Seemed silly to say no. -Yeah, silly.

-There's, er... -Money on the table, I know.

[door opens and closes]

Ronny! Ronny!

Let me through! That's my son!

[she sobs]
