(After the exam is over Class 1D exit the exam hall.)
TOP
Ah! I can't believe the exams is finally over!
SUKINI
Yeah, I hope that I did well in the exams. I don't want to be expelled.
MADDIE
It would be bad if someone from our class got expelled.
(Stewart is nervous.)
JUWON
Yo, Stewpid. How was the exam? Since you were the only one studying the reproductive system?
HAKI
Yeah, you better tell us.
TOP
Ah yes. Stewart my man. The GOAT. Tell us about the exam. Even, Kevin brought some chips to hear about what you wrote.
KEVIN
Yeah.
(He munches on some potato chips.)
(Munch! Munch! Munch!)
STEWART
The exams went perfectly well. That's what I can say. Now, would you excuse me, I'm going to my dorm.
BEN
He saw darkness in that exam, didn't he?
BOYS
Totally!
(Meanwhile, some girls are discussing the answers.)
ABBY
Hanna, what answer did you get for question 5? Was it 30?
HANNA
Yeah, I got 30.
GRACE
The answer was 30? Not 45.
JUHI
Grace. 45 wasn't even in the multiple choices.
GRACE
Oh no. am I going to fail the exams?
LISA
What about question 5? I got -67.
ASHLEY
Same here. I got the same answer.
GRACE
Me too!
HANNA
I thought it was 67.
SUKINI
Did somebody say six seven?
(He does the six seven meme pose.)
KHLOE
Sukini, you are not doing anything useful. Get lost.
JENNIFER
Yeah. But I think the answer is 67.
KHLOE
I also got the same answer. What answer did you get Justin?
JUSTIN
67.
ASHLEY
No the answer is -67.
ABBY
No. it's 67. Hanna is good at math. So if she got 67. Then that's the answer.
KHLOE
It's +67 not -67.
ASHLEY
Negative. Negative 67.
(She flips her fingers.)
(Click! Click! Click!)
KHLOE
Positive!
ASHLEY
Negative!
KHLOE
Positive!
ASHLEY
Negative!
MADDIE
Guys, stop fighting. This won't lead us anywhere. The answer is 69.
JUWON
Ehhh?! Not syntax error.
TIFFANY
How the hell did you land on syntax error?
JUWON
I used a calculator.
TOP
I also used a calculator and got math error.
LISA
The two of you are not serious. Let us use the quadratic formula and do the question again.
(She ends with 2 answers +67 and -67.)
FABLOS
I guess we got 2 fabulous correct answers.
MADDIE
Aww! I thought it was 69.
BEN
Don't lose hope, Maddie. Let's not let one question discourage us.
MADDIE
Thanks Ben, you are so sweet.
(She blushes.)
JUWON
…
HAKI
Ben, let's go. We have basketball practice.
BEN
Coming. I gotta go Maddie.
MADDIE
Okay. Can I come?
CLIVE
It's a boy thing. So no girls are allowed. That's what our coach Mr. Made said.
BEN
Sorry, Maddie. Maybe next time.
MADDIE
Okay. [That jobless PE teacher ruined my time to see Ben play basketball. I hope he gets struck by lightning.]
(Meanwhile at the basketball court.)
MADE
Why am I hearing sudden chills? Is someone wishing me a death threat like being struck by lightning?
(A week later. The exam results are out.)
SHELLY
Your exam results are out. I'm going to display them on the white board and see where you are. Most of you did very well. But some individuals didn't reach the pass mark is 40.
(She displays the results on the white board.)
JUWON
The white board was a Tv all along.
HANNA
Sigh!
