(Jake’s House – Hallway)Caroline: (calling from the hallway) Jake? Where are you Jake? (she slides to the floor and sits in the doorway) Jakey, have you stopped loving me?
Jake: (hangs up the phone and goes over to the door) Leave me alone! (slams the door)
(Caroline’s hair has gotten stuck in the door and she can’t get out. She knocks on the door but Jake doesn’t open it.)
Friend1: (to someone unseen) What? I’m sorry, I don’t do that!
Friend2: Yes you do!
Friend1: I know. Come on, let’s go.
(They both laugh.)
Caroline: Trace…you guys, can you help me please? Come on, I’m your Prom Queen. Trace, you guys, I’m serious, come on, I need help.
(The girls go over to Caroline.)
Friend1: What’s the problem?
Caroline: (motions to her hair) Several things.
Friend1: Okay, no problem. (crawls away)
Friend2: Don’t go away, Caroline baby. (follows the other friend.)
(Caroline is still stuck in the door. Her friend has come back with a very large pair of scissors.)
Friend1: You promise you won’t get mad?
Caroline: No, I love you.
Friend1: Okay, close your eyes.
(She very quickly cuts through Caroline’s hair with the scissors, thus freeing her from the door.)
Caroline: I don’t know how to thank you enough.
Friend1: My pleasure.
(They hug)
