LISEL<br />
He's an adult with a 7-year-old brain. Anyway! He'll probably be occupied trying<br />
to hit on some poor girl and embarrassing himself so ...<br />
CHRISTINE chugs some vodka-orange and closes the lid.<br />
That's absolutely VILE! So, what?<br />
CHRISTINE<br />
LISEL<br />
(Shitty medieval English accent) I hereby sentence you ... To making tedious<br />
conversation, having burst eardrums and sore feet until dawn! Also, thine must<br />
go through many o' migraines in thy dewy morn past.<br />
CHRISTINE<br />
(Shittier medieval English accent) Oh no! The fearsome Countess Lisel Mbaye<br />
of The Pale! She spares nobody from thine terrible trials of punishment and ...<br />
Passion? ... Mayhaps, will she spare thine secret-but-not-very-secret-sinceyour-parents-know<br />
LOVER?<br />
LISEL grabs CHRISTINE's hand and grins.<br />
LISEL<br />
(Maniacal English accent) HAHAHAA! NEVER!!!!!!!!<br />
LISEL drags CHRISTINE inside.<br />
They enter the PE hall that's filled with DEFINITELY NOT INEBRIATED 17 and<br />
18-year-olds. The hall is decorated with tacky banners, way too many disco balls and<br />
neon lights.<br />
Very ... Suave?<br />
The word is "sensory nightmare."<br />
Suave.<br />
LISEL<br />
CHRISTINE<br />
LISEL<br />
CHRISTINE chugs almost three quarters of the vodka-orange.<br />
Hey! Take it easy ... Save some for me ...<br />
LISEL<br />
