SCENE 1
Kappa Kappa Tau
[Enter Pete and Chad, mid conversation]
CHAD: For your own sake, I would forget about
Chanel. After this weekend, she’ll be mine for sure.
PETE: I pity you. Chanel wants nothing to do with
you, your peanut brain, or not to mention your tiny…
CHAD: Don’t you dare say it! We aren’t called the
Dickie Dollar Scholars for nothing.
PETE: I bet I can guess where the dollars go. Even I
know that charities don’t accept singles.

CHAD: You know what Pete, I think that you're
upset that the Dickie Dollar Scholars don’t welcome
poor inbred baristas.
PETE: Sirrah, I will not bear these braves of thine.
CHAD: Dude, what are you saying? Speak
English.Your nerd talk is bumming me out.
PETE: Don’t insult me. I was just about to…
[Enters Chanel]
CHANEL: Boys, that’s enough of your petty
arguing. I have a colonic at 2, so let’s make this
quick.

10. CHAD: Sorry Chanel, I just thought I would stop by
to help you with your anatomy.
PETE: Please, Chad. You have a C in that class.
CHAD: So, Chanel has a D. Do you not care
anything about her?
PETE: Of course I care about Chanel. That is why I
am here to help her not fail Spanish.
CHANEL: ENOUGH! I am sick and tired of listening
to you two fight like a couple of caged peras. Pete,
you can tutor me first. Chad, maybe you should wait
until after the colonic.
CHAD: On second thought, your anatomy is quite in
tune. All but the bass.
PETE: Did you seriously just say that?

CHAD: I’m just kidding. Chanel knows that I am all
about that bass! That bass is fine. That bass is
smoking. That bass…
CHANEL: Did I ask you to pull down my panties
and blow a compliment up my butt?
CHAD: Sorry Chanel. [to Pete] She’s all yours. I’ll
just watch.
PETE: Thank you. [to Chanel] So, why don’t we
begin with some vocabulario
CHANEL: That sounds noy bweno
PETE: Do you mean “muy bueno”
CHANEL: That’s what I said stupid.

11. PETE: We have a lot of work to do.
CHANEL: If you don’t want to help me, than you
can...
PETE: I absolutely want to help you. We just need to
start with the basics.
CHANEL: If you want, I can call for Chanels 2,3, and
5. They are the most basic bi**hes I know.
PETE: That’s not what I meant, forget it.
CHANEL: I still think you’re useless.
PETE: [to Chad] I am done trying to get through to
her. You can have her, I’m done. [aloud] I have to
go.
[Pete runs out of the room]

CHANEL: What’s his problem?
CHAD: I don’t know. Probably another one of his
nervous erections.
CHANEL: Ew, that’s disgusting. Anyways, I think
we should continue with…
MS. BEAN: Miss Chanel, your Uber is here to pick
you up for your appointment.
CHANEL: Shut up Bean. God, you are so
annoying. [to Chad] Maybe we can pick up with this
later tonight.
CHAD: You bet we can. I am going to teach you
some hardcore anatomy facts. See you later,
Chanel.
