INT. MED SHOT – CLASSROOM – ABIGAIL

The classroom is empty besides Abigail, who is busy studying for a test.

Carlos walks up behind her.

ABIGAIL
Can I help you, Carlos? I'm busy studying for that AP final. You do remember
the AP final, correct?

CARLOS
Oh yeah. I'm pretty much ready.

ABIGAIL
How lucky for you.

CARLOS
We will never be friends, will we?

Abigail is confused. Then she smiles.

ABIGAIL
Oh, we will. After finals.

CARLOS
Good. I would hate to think that you and I would never be friends.

ABIGAIL
I honestly thought we were, after a fashion.

CARLOS
After a fashion?

ABIGAIL
No one has pushed me harder than you, Carlos. And I'm willing to bet that the
converse of that is true for you.

CARLOS
Yeah, I guess that's true. So with high school out of the way, will that
relationship change?

ABIGAIL
You have a band. I have a band.

CARLOS
OK. I just that I would ask.

ABIGAIL
But it does mean that the edge is off.

They smile.

CARLOS
I can live with that.

ABIGAIL
Here's hoping that we will be rivals for a long, long time.

They shake.

Carlos leaves.

This will be a very interesting gig.

Hey! Is that a new Gitasu hair gel?

The other guys look at Hector.

HECTOR
