Ms. Granger lines for Carrie

LIFE JUST DOESN'T BEGIN UNTIL YOU'RE IN!

Don't you all have somewhere to be?

Billy: Well there's somewhere I'd like to be Miss G...

What are you Mr. Nolan 12? Tommy Ross watch those hands and definitely no tongue.

Chris: Hey you two get a room!

And you Chris Hargensen lose the gum before class.

Chris: Where should I put it Miss Gardner?

Anywhere you like just get it out of your mouth. Carrie White get a move on. Gym class in two minutes!

Chris: Loser!

Hit the showers girls! Go change up!

Girls: Plug it up! Plug it up! Plug it up!

What the hell's going on?

Sue: Oh my God!

What are you doing? Carrie? Hey what's going on?

Carrie: It... hurts. My stomach...

Stand up and take care of yourself.

Sue: I think this must be the first time she's ever had her period.

Oh my God you don't know? You're ok Carrie you're going to be all right. I'm sorry I didn't know.

Norma: Talk about clueless.

All right show's over! Clean up this mess and get to class!

Chris: Can you stand it? She never knew--

Chris!

Sue: But Chris is right, Miss Gardner.

Sue what's gotten into you?

Sue: Oh, c'mon, it's just Carrie.

Shame on you!

Mrs. Stephens: It's hard to believe any girl today could still be ignorant of the facts of life.

That's just it when I tried to explain it to Carrie she didn't seem to know what I was talking about.

Mrs. Stephens: I mean, what are the odds?

You'd have thought her mother would have told her.

Chris & Sue: UGLY SHORT AND HAIRY ALL HER FRIENDS ARE IMAGINARY!

As usual Chris Hargensen was the ringleader.

Mrs. Stephens: No surprise there.

But even Sue Snell was doing it.

Mrs. Stephens: I'd expect a stunt like this from Chris, but Sue...

All the girls were doing it.

Chris: You care too much what people think. Oh, I almost forgot - my folks are away. Party at my house tonight!

Carrie go home and rest for the remainder of the day.

Mrs. Stephens: We're all terribly sorry about this, Carrie.

Skip gym this week. Take study hall instead

Sue: I KNOW THAT ONCE YOU SEE, YOU CAN'T UNSEE (Scene 9)

C'mon you hotshots I want to see you sweat! Faster faster! Norma move it! get those knees up!

Norma: I don't like running.

Okay line up eyes front! Well aren't you just the bunch to send off to graduation and out into the world? Oh my yes. And Prom's next Saturday. Sue you'll be going with Tommy Ross I imagine. And Chris well I bet you can take your pick? Who's the lucky guy?

Chris: Billy Nolan.

Who?

Chris: Billy Nolan. (second time)

Well isn't this perfect? Do any of you stop to think that Carrie White has feelings? Do any of you ever stop to think? Wipe that smirk off your face Norma. You know ladies life is all about choices about making the right choice. I just want you to know that yesterday you made the wrong one and did a really shitty thing. So this is how it's going to go down. You're each going to apologize to Carrie.

Girls: Whaaaat?!

Apologize to her in front of everyone.

Chris: Forget it. I won't.

That's up to you Chris. That's up to all of you.

Chris: And if we don't?

Do you really want to find out?

Norma: Chris -- zip it!

Okay girls you've all got something to say to Carrie. Who's going first?

Sue: Carrie... Carrie I'm sorry

Frieda.

Frieda: Sorry, Carrie.

Your turn Norma.

Norma: Sorry

Helen.

Helen: Sorry.

Okay Chris let's hear it.

Chris: When god**** pigs fly...

We're waiting Chris I can't hear you

Chris: Carrie White eats shit!

That's it Hargensen you're out of the prom!

Chris: What?!

You heard me. You're out. End of story.

Chris: You can't get away with this!

Watch me. The periods not over yet. There are still ten minutes left.

Chris: Stick them up your ass!

Class dismissed.

Chris: My daddy's a lawyer! He'll sue your ass!

Shut up!

Chris: You'll never get another job teaching!

Get moving! All of you now!

Chris: She can't get away with this! If we all stick together, we can --

Go go go!

Chris: You can all go to hell!

Carrie? Oh Carrie if I'd had any idea it was going to turn out like this I'd never.

Carrie: Miss Gardner, you've got to let Chris go. You've just got to!

What are you talking about?

Carrie: Prom -- it's very important to her.

And what's right is important to me.

Carrie: But Prom is everything to those girls. Its the one night they all get dressed up... and they look beautiful. It's like a dream -- a perfect dream.

And what about you?

Carrie: Me? Oh. no, I'm not going. I'm different.

Not that different.

Carrie: Yes, I am. They've all got someone.

So will you. One day you'll see. Things change. I'll tell you what. Let's pretend.

Carrie: Oh, Miss Gardner --

Just for a minute pretend that the right someone comes up to you and says Carrie will you be my date for Prom? Well what would you say?

Carrie: No.

Carrie! Why not?

Carrie: I'm not pretty.

Sure you are. Come over here. See there now that's a pretty girl. (SONG)

Carrie: Oh, I don't know Miss Gardner.

And you never will if you don't give it a chance. Now listen to me you are a beautiful young woman.

Carrie: Me?

Yes you silly you! Look at those eyes and with the right shade of lipstick.

Carrie: Lipstick?! But my mother would never --

And with the perfect dress Carrie it could be wonderful! (SONG)

AND WE WONT GET A CHANCE LIKE THIS AGAIN

Sit down!

Mrs. Stephens: You honestly think Sue but Tommy up to this?

I'm sure of it.

Mrs. Stephens: Why in God's name would she do such a thing?

That's what I intend to find out.

Mrs. Stephens: What about Chris--is she still giving you grief?

Not a peep. Which honestly worries me even more.

Sue: If only that day in the shower hadn't happened, if only I hadn't asked Tommy to take Carrie to the Prom if only somebody had listened... and paid attention...

Sue?

Sue: If only I could go back and-

Sue are you listening?

Sue: Sorry...?

Well? Why did Tommy ask Carrie to Prom?

Sue: I thought we could help her- get her to join in, and I don't know-

Make her a part of things? What could you possibly be thinking?

Sue: This is really none of your business.

Excuse me?

Sue: What is the big deal?

It is a very big deal to Carrie! And you don't think you're going to look just a little ridiculous when you show up to the Prom with her?

Sue: Seriously? Oh great!

Clearly you two have a lot to discuss. Listen to me and listen good hurt Carrie in any way and you'll have me to answer to.

Freddy: All right, this one's for posterity! And that's a keeper!

Carrie?

Carrie: Oh Miss Gardner, you look incredible!

You too Carrie you look absolutely amazing!

Tommy: Hi, Miss Gardner.

Tommy.

Tommy: Miss Gardner?

Why thank you Tommy. I'd love that.

Tommy: Be right back.

What are you doing?

Carrie: Trying to memorize it all--every single detail.

So tell me is it everything you dreamed?

Carrie: It's... nice.

Just nice?

Carrie: It's-it's like being on Mars. Now that I'm here, I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to do.

I remember my prom. I went with the captain of the basketball team. He was 6 feet 7 inches tall! So I went out and bought a pair of these stiletto heels so that our kiss goodnight would be a little less awkward. Anyway we went in his pick up truck which of course broke down so we had to walk the last half mile to the prom.

Carrie: Oh no!

By the time we got there my feet were so blistered that all I could do was sit there. I was sure I'd ruined the night I couldn't dance. But instead we just sat there and talked. And you know what? It turned out to be one of the best nights of my entire life.

Carrie & Miss Gardner: TWO UNSESPECTING HEARTS

Oh honey.

Tommy: Miss Gardner-

Cheers you two. Have a lovely time.

Mrs. Stephens: People, please!

When you receive your ballots vote for your favorite couple.

Mrs. Stephens: All right, here we go! we give you this year's King and Queen of the Prom-

Tommy Ross and Carrie White!

Sue: Miss Gardner- Miss Gardner!

Sue? What are you doing here?

Sue: You've got to listen-something terrible's going to happen!

I knew it I knew you were up to something!

Sue: You've got it all wrong. It's not me.

Sue I warned you get out!
