BOY'S LAVATORY<br />

Laurie, I know it's a drag but you<br />

can't--remember what happened to<br />

Evelyn Chelnick? When Mike went to<br />

the Marines? She had a nervous<br />

breakdown and was acting so wacky<br />

she got run over <strong>by</strong> a bus.<br />

LAURIE<br />

I just wish I could go with him or<br />

something.<br />

PEG<br />

Laurie, jeez... Come on.<br />

We move down a row of sinks at which guys are working as<br />

intently on their coiffures as the girls. Ducktails being<br />

smoothed; glassy waterfalls being primped; the fronts of<br />

crew cuts being waxed to stand stiff.<br />

Steve stands looking at himself, then glances at Eddie Quentin<br />

standing next to him, dabbing something on his face.<br />

STEVE<br />

What's that?<br />

Eddie jerks his hand down and hides something.<br />

EDDIE<br />

What's what?<br />

Steve turns and pulls Eddie's hand up.<br />

STEVE<br />

Hey, zit make-up!<br />

(laughing)<br />

Wait till I tell--hey, everybody,<br />

Eddie--<br />

EDDIE<br />

Come on, Steve--don't. Just cool it.<br />

He takes his pimple cream back and Steve continues to laugh.<br />

He stops slowly and looks at himself again in the mirror. He<br />

finds something on his neck, looks around at Eddie.<br />

STEVE<br />

(quietly)<br />

Let me see some of that stuff.<br />

Eddie gives him the tube and Steve dabs it on his neck.<br />

Steve nods.<br />

EDDIE<br />

You leave tomorrow?<br />

EDDIE<br />

You and Laurie engaged yet?
