School Crazed

FADE IN:

INT. High School Hallway

Two girls hold tests in their hands. They are comparing answers and marks. One girl’s face becomes screwy as the other girl points at something on her paper and compares it to her own. The girl balls the paper up and tosses it across the room attempting to get it in the nearest trash can.

At that same moment a teacher comes in view. The paper hits the teacher in her face and becomes agitated.

GIRL #1

Oh my god! I’m so sorry

TEACHER

I’ll believe that when you start listening in class!

GIRL #2

(whispers)

Whoa, what is she talking about we aren’t even in any of her classes.

GIRL #1

(whispers back)

I’m not quite sure.

(to the teacher)

I’m sorry, but I’ve never seen you before in my life. Who are you?

TEACHER

(hysterically)

YOU DON'T KNOW WHO I AM! I’ve been working here for years! Years! I’m your history teacher! What do you mean by asking who am I!

The girls stare at each other nervously. One pulls on the others arm attempting to back away.

GIRL #1

(whispers)

Let’s go. Now!

As they begin to back away the teacher rushes towards them, with a demented look in her eyes. Her fly away hair becomes wilder as she sprints towards the petrified girls. She grabs both of the girls and embraces them. The girls begin to scream frantically.

TEACHER

(chants)

Remember me! Remember me!

A young woman rushes around the corner and pulls the teacher off of the girls.

WOMAN

Mom! You have to go back to the home! You don't work here. I do. Please get off of these young ladies.

The young woman leads her mother around the corner and out of the hallway. The two girls look at each other.

GIRL #2

Let’s just pretend that never happened.

GIRL #1

Deal. You know I always knew teaching drove people crazy.

GIRL #2

That explains my mom.

FADE OUT
