CUT TO: Bolthouse Offices

Heidi and her co-worker, Elodie, go into the bathroom

Elodie: That’s cool. Are you okay?

Heidi: Yeah I just don’t get this company like there’s so many cool things going on and I just feel like I’m kinda left out.

Elodie: Like you’re not part of anything?

Heidi: Yeah I just feel kind of like left…like there’s always events but I don’t get to go to ‘em even if I don’t work…I just wish I could do some of the cool stuff like work at the night clubs like that is so much more fun, just not what I thought it was gonna be. I quit school for this.

Elodie: Well I think that like for every job there’s a starting point where you have to start and pay your dues and learn. Then that’s…the more you learn, the more you know and then you’ll get promoted.

Heidi: But I don’t…

Elodie: And then you get to do those things like you don’t even understand what I went through. It’s like I paid my dues it’s like do you know how many girls want my job? Do you know how many guys want my job? Pay your dues and then you’ll be able to work the clubs and then you’ll be able to work with me and Kristin and Grace and it’s so much fun and you’ll really, really enjoy it. I mean were you thinking about quitting or…?

CUT TO: Teen Vogue Offices

Lauren is coming back from lunch with Jason.

Lauren: Hello.

Lauren: Well I mean there’s always sparks because there were sparks.

Whitney: That’s so sweet, he brought you flowers.

Lauren: (Looks at them) Oh who put them in a vase?

Whitney: I saw them and I was like “Oh man she should’ve put them I water”. Flowers aren’t just like a friendly thing though.

Lauren: Flowers, what did my dad always say? My dad always told me flowers mean, “I’m sorry” and chocolates mean, “I love you”.

Whitney: Do you feel there could be something there again? He’s obviously trying somewhat to impress you.

Lauren: Mm-hmm.

Whitney: To make you think about like something a little bit more than just friends.

Lauren: I just feel like it’s something like you know when you like someone that’s like completely different than everyone you’ve ever liked before?

Whitney: Yeah.

Lauren: It’s almost like I feel like if I don’t give it another chance I’m gonna always be like “I wonder?”

Whitney: Yeah sometimes there are just some people that you never get over. (Lauren nods)

CUT TO: Hillside Villas

It’s just so hard like it’s harder for me than it is for you though. Because like I’m at this job that I absolutely hate. I can’t do this anymore, I’m gonna quit. I love you. Bye. (Heidi hangs up and then looks at her phone for a minute. Then she goes back inside Bolthouse)

CUT TO: That Night – The Movie Theater

Jason and Lauren go inside and walk up the stairs into the theater and sit down.

Jason: Cool. This is the gnarliest theater I’ve been to in my life.

Lauren: Don’t they usually like have something on the theater? (Jason laughs) Must be a really good movie. It’s far too crowded. It’s packed. (Jason laughs again) Good choice.

Jason: You’re telling me good choice?

Lauren: Yeah.

Jason: You picked it out.

Lauren: No I didn’t. (The theater starts to get dark) It’s starting.

CUT TO: Later

Jason is driving Lauren home.

Jason: Where?

Lauren: (Points) Right there. (Jason pulls into Hillside Villas and he parks the car, gets out, and opens Lauren’s door for her and she gets out) Thank you.

Jason: Mm-hmm. Thank you for coming.

Lauren: (She hugs him) Thank you for taking me.

Jason: Good seeing you. (He touches her face, leans in and kisses her) Um, go to dinner or something sometime.
