Friday night, right before the homecoming game....
As the football team rushes out of the tunnel, Zoe approaches Caleb.
Caleb: Zoe, what are you doing? Shouldn't you be over with the Hearst cheerleaders?
Zoe: Before all this goes down, I really need to talk to you. I'm sorry for everything I did. I was wrong, and....it's over with Brian....because I want you back.
Caleb: You can't be serious.
Zoe: You have to believe me, Caleb. I've been such a fool. You're the only man I can ever really love....If you give me one more chance, I promise I'll be the perfect girlfriend.
Caleb: I....Zoe, we....
Sammie rush to Caleb's side as the rest of the football team runs out of the tunnel.
Zoe: Sammie. Of course you're not far behind.
Sammie: Listen Zoe, Nobody wants you around! Why don't you do us all a favor and leave?
Zoe: Back off, Clifford. If Caleb wants me gone, he can say so himself.
Caleb pushes Sammie to the side, facing Zoe directly.
Caleb: Zoe....I can't do this right now. I've got to focus on the game.
Zoe: I know. Let's talk afterward.
Zoe gives Caleb a quick kiss.
Zoe: I'll be rooting for you!
Sammie turn to Caleb as she shuffles toward the stands.
Sammie: You doing okay?
Caleb: I'm fine....I have to be.
Sammie: If you're sure....
Caleb: Yeah, I can. I'll catch up with you later. I've got a game to win.
Caleb jogs over to the football team, while Sammie join her bandmates on the sidelines.
Ezra: Let's get the party started!
Aiden: Are you thinking what I am thinking?
Ezra: Fight song to get us going?
Aiden: Precisely.
Sammie: And....Here....We....Go!
Hearst kicks off the ball to start the game.
First quarter, four minutes left on the clock....
On the field, the Hearst offense runs a new play. Brian easily evades the defense and scores for Hearst!
Brian: That's why the bulldogs are the best. Take that, Tigers! Or shall I say losers.
Sammie: There's no way Brian could've seen that coming! It was a solid play from our defense!
Emma: At least it's only 7-0.
Second quarter, six minutes and three seconds left on the clock....
Sammie: 17-0. This isn't how I excepted the game to go.
Emma: It's like they know our moves before we do!
Sammie spots Coach Burke running back and forth in the sidelines, searching frantically for something.
Coach Burke: Where's my binder? It's got all our plays!
Sammie: Oh no....
Sammie's eyes dart across to Hearst's side of the field....Where she spot Brian greenly scanning a suspicious red binder!
