Okay.<br />

CURT<br />

They go off toward the VW and climb in.<br />

BACK INSIDE THE GYM<br />

The hop is almost over and the lights have been lowered,<br />

conservatively. Steve and Laurie hold each other, hardly<br />

moving and he kisses her. Still kissing, they continue to<br />

circle slowly--until a short, totally bald teacher comes and<br />

pokes Steve in the side.<br />

MR. KROOT<br />

All right, Bolander, break it up.<br />

You know the rules. You and your<br />

panting girlfriend want to do that<br />

you'll have to go someplace else.<br />

He gives them a disgusted look and starts off.<br />

Hey, Kroot!<br />

STEVE<br />

The teacher turns, surprised <strong>by</strong> the omission of "Mr."<br />

STEVE<br />

Why don't you go kiss a duck.<br />

Kroot's beady eyes widen and he comes back.<br />

KROOT<br />

What? What did you say?<br />

STEVE<br />

I said go kiss a duck, marblehead.<br />

Kroot is stunned and people have stopped dancing to watch<br />

MR. KROOT<br />

Bolander--you're suspended. You're--<br />

don't even come Monday. You are out!<br />

STEVE<br />

(smiling broadly)<br />

I graduated last semester.<br />

Suddenly everything has changed. Mr. Kroot is furious, but<br />

unable to do anything. He finally storms off in a huff. Steve,<br />

Laurie and the people watching all laugh.<br />

THE GYM PARKING LOT<br />

STEVE<br />

(to Laurie)<br />

Get your shoes. Let's go before we<br />

get thrown out.<br />

Steve and Laurie walk toward her Edsel. In the background<br />

Wolfman Jack is taking a phone call from someone.
