1. Scene 9
The scene starts if in Ms Suluvans’ office in which Ms Suluvan and Mr Watson are having a friendly
chat.
(Mr Watson and Ms Suluvan Enter.)
Mr Watson: Did I ever tell you how amazing you are at your job.
Ms Suluvan: Oh Please Mitchell, you’re too kind. Besides, have you got the paper work I
asked you to do?
Mr Watson: Oh ermm...Of course. Come with me madam and I’ll show you exactly where it
is.
(Mr Watson and Ms Suluvan exit.)
Mr Watson and Ms Suluvan both leave, not realising they leave the door open behind them, whilst
inmate 1 and inmate 2 are allowed on parole, realise that Ms Suluvans door is left open.
(Inmate 1 and Inmate 2 Enter.)
Inmate 1: Oi look, Ms Suluvans’ door is open.
Inmate 2: Well is anyone inside?
Inmate 1: Errrm... (Looks through the door) Nope!
Inmate 2: Okay well... I’ll keep watch and you see what you can find, but be quick.
Inmate 1 starts looking through files very rapidly, whilst inmate 2 is on look out besides the door.
Inmate 1: There are files on all of us.
Inmate 2: See what dirt you can dig up about anyone in here.
Inmate 1 comes across Carla’s file.
Inmate 1: Looks like Carla isn’t little Miss bad girl after all.
Inmate 2: What you on about?
Inmate 1: Well.
Inmate 2: WAIT! I think someone’s coming. Quick, let’s get back to the others.
Inmate 1 slams file cabinet shit and both run.
(Inmate 1 and inmate 2 exit.)

2. The two inmates are back with the others in the recreation room, where everyone is busy doing
their own thing.
(Inmate 1 and Inmate 2 Enter.)
Inmate 1 and Inmate 2 gather round a few of the girls and tell them what they’ve just found out.
(Whispers going round the group)
Carla: What’s the gossip over there?
Inmate 3: Who cares, probably a load of rubbish anyways.
Carla: Yeah I guess. (Looking quite suspicious)
(A few of the girls get up and start whispering to the girls seated around Carla, Carla is feeling very
left out and slightly nervous as all the girls are now staring at her.)
Carla: (Stands Up) WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON AROUND HERE!
Inmate 1: (Viciously sits Carla down.) You best shut your mouth.
Inmate 2: What was it again you’re in here for?
Carla: I’ve told you all before already, Murder.
(Everyone starts laughing with a sudden stop.)
Inmate 2: (Holding Carla’s neck from the back.) Wrong answer, try again.
(Carla getting more and more nervous)
Carla: Okay, Okay, I only stabbed the damn girl, now get the hell of me.
Inmate 1: Uh, not so fast. Now you see, you’ve been a right cow around here. Things are
about to change!
Inmate 2: A girl with only one record of stabbing someone has been messing with the
wrong bunch of girls.
Inmate 1: Girls! Let’s say we show little miss bad girl, what it really means to be bad.
(Freeze the scene with Inmate 2 holding the back of Carla’s head whilst inmate 1 is about to
violently punch her, meanwhile everyone else is gathered round cheering and yelling abuse at
Carla.)
(Scene cuts to Yasmin and Nicole)
(Stage lights darken the stage, whilst spotlight on Nicole and Yasmin.)

3. Yasmin: Nicole look at this, is this really what you want to happen to your best friend.
Nicole: She’s not my best friend and never will be, no friend of mine would do the things
she did.
Yasmin: I know your upset at her and I know you have no intensions of becoming her
friend again. But there’s no harm in trying.
Nicole: You would never understand how it felt to see your own friend turn your back on
you. How it’s all her fault I’m stuck in here.
Yasmin: You’re right! I won’t ever understand, but I do know deep inside you want to go
and help her right now. It’s never too late to change things between you to and
holding a grudge against her won’t ever change anything about what’s happened.
(Nicole sighs and realises what’s the right thing to do.)
(Girls unfreeze, yelling abuse and cheering on inmate 1, who is about to punch Carla.)
Inmate 2: PUCNH HER! WHAT YOU WAITING FOR!
Inmate 3: Carla you’re a liar.
(All inmates now getting very aggressive)
All Inmates: PUNCH HER! PUNCH HER! PUNCH HER!
Nicole: (Stands Up) STOP!
(Everyone stops suddenly and turns around.)
Inmate 1: SHUT UP!
Nicole: WAIT! Just listen to me for two minutes.
Inmate 2: Go on then, this better be worth it.
Nicole: (Takes a deep breath) How is beating up Carla, going to solve anything. Don’t you
realise by acting this way you’re all only becoming what you hated day by day.
Carla was only as petrified as you all were when you first came here. We all
made stupid mistakes and tried covering up how scared we were by putting on
made stupid mistakes and tried covering up how scared we were by putting on
this fake shield that truly doesn’t need to be there. If you lot feel that the only
way left is to stoop to Carla’s level, then were all only as bad as her. I’m sure she
doesn’t mean a thing of what she’s done, I mean come on; I should know her
better than anyone in here. Just take a second to think about who you all were
before you came here

4. (There’s a silence within the group, everyone is left speechless.)
(Guard 1 and Guard 2 enter)
Guard 1: Okay you lot, fun time over, now get to your cells.
(Everyone goes without a single word; Nicole and Carla exit last, each looking at each other
in disbelief.)
Carla is now shown in her cell thinking about what’s just happened.
(Reflective song played, showing Carla’s true emotions.)
