EXT. ELM STREET - RIVERDALE - NIGHT (THAT SAME NIGHT)
We hear crickets, a dog barking, end-of-summer sounds. The Camera
pans across a series of MODEST HOMES along a tree-lined street.
Towards ONE HOUSE in particular...a BEDROOM on the second floor...
INT. THE COOPER HOUSE - BETTY'S BEDROOM - NIGHT
Blonde, pretty BETTY COOPER (16), in jeans and a bra, getting
dressed, while brown-haired KEVIN KELLER (16, cute) lounges on
her bed, scrolling through profiles on his iPhone.
BETTY
I thought you already had your “date”
picked out for tonight --
KEVIN
-- I did, jockbud92, but then he
suggested we meet in the bathroom of a
truck stop off Route 80 --
BETTY
Uhm, hi, Craigslist killer --
KEVIN
-- so it’s back to the grind on Grindr.
Or -- can I just hang out here with the
twinks of FraternityX.com until you get
back? My parents are warpathing --
BETTY
Oh, no, why this time?
KEVIN
Same old, same old. General Keller goes
on a bender, calls me a homo, Mom starts
yelling, I’m out the front door --
(speaking of same old...)
-- are you excited? Nervous?
BETTY
Both -- I haven’t seen him all summer --
KEVIN
-- which is why nerves are acceptable,
but we agreed: It’s time. Your parents
want to micromanage every aspect of your
life? Fine, but not who you date -- there are limits, Betty. Post-LA, you’re in
your P.O.P. -- your Place of Power. You
like him, he likes you, it’s what needs
to happen. Cosmically.
BETTY
Then why hasn’t he ever said or done
anything?
