AMANDA

(half angry, half sobbing) Let me go. Please just leave me alone.

MARCUS

How many times must we go over this? Consider yourself lucky and do as you're told. And right now we're going into the men's room and you're going to put that smart mouth of yours to good use.

No one is affected in the cafeteria by the announcement that MARCUS intends to sexually assault this girl. The few who have noticed laugh or cheer him on. MARCUS stands, dragging an unwilling AMANDA with him.

JONAH stands and reaches the struggling couple within a few seconds

V.O. JONAH

And there I go

JONAH (to MARCUS)

That's enough!

Both AMANDA and MARCUS look over at him, he annoyed and she with an unidentifiable expression.

MARCUS

(to JONAH) Two questions. One, who the hell do you think you are? And two,...

You're the hero who's going to stand up to the big bad sports star and get the girl. If I've got my '80s movies rights, that is how these things go right?
Well I'll make this easier. (MARCUS drops AMANDA's arms)

(shouts to the cafeteria) Any girl interested in joining me in the bathroom?

Amid another round of laughter, two pretty girls from across the cafeteria walk over and take either of MARCUS's arms. He laughs and then exits through the cafeteria doors.

JONAH turns to AMANDA.

JONAH

(to AMANDA) Are you okay?

AMANDA slaps JONAH across the face.

AMANDA

How dare you assume I couldn't take care of the situation myself?
