These words
are also

In your weekly
reading assignment.

Wait!

I hope you've been studying
for tomorrow's spelling test

Which is worth ten percent
of your final mark.

On to your next class.

I really like
your scarf, luce.

This old thing?



Lucy, I'd like
a word with you.

He's such a fascist.

See you later, luce.

Hurry!

It's supposed to be
study period.

Baxter's
always late.

Anyways, we won't
get caught.

Someone will keep watch.

Don't you want to
see damon king?

He's so gorgeous.

Oh, I know.

Have a seat.

Lucy, as you know,
your marks--

In all your courses, I gather--

Have been declining.

You seem to have
stopped working.

I don't know why.

Do you?

Is there a problem?

Is everything
all right at home?

Yeah, everything's fine.

Can I go?

I've got study period.

If there is anything,
and you need to talk

That's why I'm here.

Everything's fine, really.

Maybe I'm going
through a phase.

Well, you'd better
begin a new phase

Or you'll jeopardize
your entire year.

Stephanie:
It's starting!

We have a lot in common.

We really do.

Joey ( mimicking ):
But what about me?

Wheels ( mimicking ):
What about you?

He's such a hunk.

He's so good-looking.

Oh, shawn.

Oh, rebecca--

If only we were free
to follow our hearts.

Joey:
What about
amanda and harvey?

Would you shut up, joey!

Darling rebecca...

Not one moment
of one day goes by

When I don't dream of
holding you in my arms.

Shawn darling...

Hush, my sweet.

He's kissing her.

Ooh!
Ooh!

Ooh!
Ooh!

Shut up!
Shut up!
Shut up!

We can't hurt harvey.

I don't love him anymore.

Think of your children.

They can
come with us.

They really
like you, shawn.

What did mr. Raditch want?

The usual: "get better marks

Or you'll jeopardize your year."

I don't need spelling.

I'm going to be a dancer.

Listen.

I'm good
at spelling

So if you want help...

Who wants to take
grade eight over again?

I can't leave here-- not now--
not with amanda still in a coma.

I'm going to meet him.

Damon king?

Give us
a break.

See?

He's autographing
his book tomorrow

At the bookstore.

Want to come?

Okay.

Yeah.

Baxter's coming!

I didn't hear the tv on, did I?

No.
No.

Did you really mean what you
said about helping me?

Sure.

Corroborate.

C-o-r-o-b-b-o-r-a-t-e.

No.

Two rs, one b.

This is so boring.

You've got to
keep practicing.

It's my right to flunk.

Hello?

Hi, honey, it's mom.

Hi, mom.

I'm still downtown.

How long will the meeting go on?

About an hour.

Is that okay?

Yeah.

Is your dad home?

No, he's working late, too.

You hungry?

You could order pizza.

No, that's okay.

See you in an hour.

Love ya!

Bye-bye.

I'm tired of studying.

Let's have some fun.

But we haven't finished.

I don't care.

Let's make
you over.

What?

What do
you mean?

It will be fun.

Try on some of
my clothes.

What do you mean?

Uh...
Try this.

This is weird.

Have some fun.

Here.

We're going
to meet him

And the moment
he sees steph:

( mimicking: )
stephanie--

The moment
I saw you

I knew we were
meant for each other.

Oh, damon, really?

I know you're only 14

But what does age matter
when two people are in love?

Oh, damon.

If only we were free
to follow our hearts.

Oh, damon, I can't.

I don't love you.

You don't love me?

No, I love
heather!

Oh, too bad!

Come on.

Just a moment.

Let me see.

I'm coming,
I'm coming.

It's not the usual me,
that's for sure.

Who wants to look
the same all the time?

Do this.

It will
look better.

See?

That's nice.

I wish I had more
interesting clothes.

You can borrow mine.

I couldn't.

My parents won't let me
be sophisticated.

They're old-fashioned.

My parents are perfect.

They buy me everything I want.

And they're always working,
so they're never here to bug me.

Don't you get lonely?

I'm self-sufficient.

Come on,
try something else.

No, I'd better go.

It's getting late.

Voula, you can stay for supper.

My mom will
be back soon.

She's a gourmet cook.

She takes classes and stuff.

Thanks, my dad always
makes us have supper together.

Boring.

It's okay.

Thanks for letting me
try on your clothes

And good luck with the test.

Thanks for
helping me study.

Voula?

Would you like
to borrow this scarf?

It's not that weird.

Your parents
won't mind.

Really?

Thanks.

Keep it

For as long as you like.

I've got lots.

See you tomorrow.

Bye.

Hello?

Hi, honey.

Hi, mom.

I'm still tied up
with that meeting.

How long will it go on for?

You know these deals.

Yeah, I understand.

Dad's still at work?

Yeah, I'll fix
my own dinner.

There's sushi in the fridge.

Love ya.
Bye.

Receive.

I hope to receive
20 perfect papers.

Receive.

Paralysis.

George was confined
to a wheelchair

Due to his paralysis.

Paralysis.

Corroborate.

The officer needed the witness
to corroborate his evidence.

Corroborate.

Hierarchy.

The teacher leads
the hierarchy of a classroom.

Mr. Raditch:
Time's up.

Pens down.

Papers over.

Class dismissed.

Lucy:
I can't believe it.

I'm sure I passed.

Everything we studied
was on that test.

That's great.

Thanks a lot, voula.

Heather:
There will probably be
millions of people there.

Don't be a chicken.

I'm not.

He's not
my type.

Heather's type
lives in the zoo.

Could you hold this?

Yeah, sure.

Do I look all right?

Yeah.

Okay.

Let's go.
Let's go.

Come on.

Hi, damon,
how are you?

I watch your show
all the time

And I do admire you.

Bye.

You look so adorable.

Oh, wow.

He looks
just like on tv.

Stephanie:
I'm going to meet him.

Erika:
You need a book.

I'll get him
to sign this.

Go on.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Hi.

Hi there.

I didn't

Buy a book

But could you sign this?

I'm a big fan.

Sure.

Anything for a fan.

Will he kiss her?

We'll never hear
the end of it.

What's your name?

Stephanie.

How old are you?

I'm... Sixteen.

Sweet sixteen.

Thanks.

You know, stephanie,
one autograph, one kiss.

That's my policy.

Bye.

I'll never wash
my cheek again.

Oh, me.

Damon king
kissed me.

Steph--

This looks like
a telephone number.

What?

Erika:
All right.

Heather.

Very good.

Erika.

Not up to your
usual standards.

Joey jeremiah.

I didn't realize
you knew swahili.

Lucy.

Very good.

A real improvement.

Let's hope it continues.

Remember that
sounding a word out

Doesn't always help you
spell the word.

However, I am very impressed

With the development
of your spelling.

Have a nice weekend.

Class dismissed.

Steph.

Why shouldn't I call him?

It isn't
a good idea.

Of course it is.

I passed-- thanks.

I didn't do much.

You helped me.

Now I'll help you.

Let's get you new clothes.

But I don't have any money.

Don't worry.

Don't you want clothes?

Sure, but...

We'll meet after class.

Bye, voula.
Bye.

See you later.

You shouldn't
do this.

Of course I should.

Isn't he cute?

He is so
good-looking.

He probably just
wants your body.

I know, I know!

I bet you
she gets a date.

Erika:
This is great.

He probably won't
remember her.

I don't believe it.

Neither do I.

Oh, heather.

May I speak to
damon king, please?

She's talking
to him.

Hi, is this damon?

This is stephanie.

You remember?

He remembers.

This is
so romantic.

This is so dumb.

Don't be
a prude.

I am not a prude.

That sounds great.

Yeah, you can
pick me up.

At the record store?

Yeah, okay.

Okay, thanks.

Bye.

A date.

Tonight.

He's going
to show me
the tv studio.

A date
with damon king!

You're going out
with some strange man.

He's not
a strange man.

He's a tv star.

We know nothing
about him.

We always watch him on tv.

I read about him.

I feel like I know him.

Isn't it kind of late
to go to a tv studio?

They're always
open late.

Isn't he
kind of old
for you?

You're just jealous.

I'm not
jealous!

What about
your mom?

You won't
be grounded

You'll be
buried.

How will she know?

Heather, relax.

I can take care
of myself.

There's so much
nice stuff here.

Yeah, I shop here a lot.

I've heard this
is a good tape.

Yeah.

Sounds pretty good.

Let's find you
some sweaters.

Looks like something
my mother would buy.

Hey, that's cute.

Voula, those are
clone clothes.

I guess you're right.

Hey, I really like this.

Yeah, it's nice.

So get one.

It's too expensive.

What size are you?

Uh, petite.

This is your size.

What are you doing?

Shh, be casual.

Come on, lucy,
put it back.

No one's seen us.

Come on.

Lucy, we can't!

Sure, we can.

They expect to lose stuff.

Anyway, it's not
that expensive.

But it's wrong.

It's okay as long
as we don't get caught.

Come on.

Come on, come on!

You want this sweater,
don't you?

Not this way.

Don't be
such a wimp.

I'm not a wimp.

You're a thief.

So take it back.

I can't.

What if someone sees?

Voula,
just keep it.

Come on.

No one cares.

Run!

I'll take the bag, ladies.

Come this way.

Hi, there.

Stephanie?

Hi.

Hop aboard.

Let's you and me
go have some fun.

What's the matter
with you kids?

Don't you think
shoplifting matters?

The store has to pay
for what you steal

Which means prices go up
and people pay more.

Listen, this
isn't funny.

You'll be singing
a different tune

When the police arrive.

The police.

I can't believe it.

Relax.

Act like
you're sorry.

They won't charge us.

We won't even go to the station.

How do you know?

I just
know.

You've been caught before?

Of course not-- you think I do
this all the time?

Woman:
Sergeant seals,
these are the two.

Well, well.

You again.

And you've brought
a friend with you

This time.

These are
the things

The girls stole.

There's
a sweater...

Um... I thought we were
going to the studio.

I thought we'd
stop for a bit

And talk.

Relax.

I don't bite.

Don't be so nervous.

I'm not nervous.

You're not afraid of me?

No.

I just don't like it here.

Why not?

This is a nice place.

It's quiet...

Peaceful...

You know what, stephanie?

I think we have
a lot in common.

Don't.

I want
to go home.

I'll take you in a while.

I want to go now.

Come on, stephanie.

You know what this is all about.

Hey, hey!

Come on.

Stay away from me
or I'll scream.

Stay away from me!

Shh.

Shh.

Not so loud.

I'm not really 16.

I'm 14 years old.

I told all my friends
we were going out

So you'd better not
touch me!

She didn't do anything.

I took it.

She told me to put it back.

Honest.

It was all
my fault.

We can talk about this
down at the station.

Mummy?

Please don't be mad.

I've done something
really stupid.

Could you pick me up?

I'm in a motel.

I'll tell you later.

This is great.

Thanks a lot, luce.

Look, voula, I'm sorry.

I did tell them
what happened.

Don't talk to me.

I've come to pick up
my daughter, voula.

Voula?

She's right
over there, sir.

I'll get her.

Thank you.

I'm sorry
I ever helped you.

I used to think
you were sophisticated

But you're just dumb.

Voula.

Your parents are here.

Come with me,
please.

Good luck, voula.

See what
we have here?

What have you done?

What have you
done to us?

We're having difficulty

Tracking down
your parents.

They're very busy.

We have to
charge you this time.

Come with me.

Father:
No more lucy.

Mother:
Listen to
your father.

Heather:
I knew you shouldn't
have done it.

He sounds like
such a creep.

He is.

Then he said

"steph, I think we have
a lot in common."

That's what he said
on tv!

What looks good on tv

Can be pretty gross
in real life.

What did
your mom say?

She wasn't as mad
as I expected.

She gave me that talk

About not getting into
risky situations.

That speech!

Yeah, but I kind of
understood it this time.

You were really
lucky, steph.

I know.

Hi.

Hello.

What did your parents do?

I'm not allowed to
talk to you anymore.

Look, voula,
I'm sorry.

I was dumb.

I have to go to court.

I guess I'm in
a lot of trouble.

What did your parents say?

They said I'm a spoiled brat,
after all they've done for me.

Maybe they're right.

They said we have to
take family counseling.

My parents probably
won't find the time.

Listen, you want
any more help?

Like in spelling or math
or anything?

I don't mind.

But I thought
your parents said...

I'll talk
to them.

They'll understand
when they stop being so mad.

So...

You want
any help?
