I am honestly so sorry.

VIVIAN

Please call me back.

VIVIAN

Seriously, dude? I know you’re at home. Open the door.

Bradley. It’s just prom. He asked me before you did and he did it in front of like a hundred people. I didn’t know what to say.

BRAD

Pretty sure you would have said no if you didn’t want to go with him.

VIVIAN

You’re right. I’m sorry.

BRAD

To be clear, I don’t care that you don’t want to go with me. It is just prom. I just can’t believe you’re going with him of all people.

VIVIAN

I’ll tell him I won’t go with him.

BRAD

Damage is done.

VIVIAN

Well, I think YOU’RE the one who’s being an asshole for not talking to me about this.

VIVIAN

Okay, Stacy B. just explained to me that Brad Turner had pushed you into a ditch once and some other stuff ever since kindergarten.

I’m so sorry. I knew he gave you that nickname, but I had no idea he was that big of a dick to you. You never told me.

BRAD

Why would I tell you about something that humiliating?

VIVIAN

Because I’m your friend.

BRAD

You just don’t get it, do you?
