Scene 44: Oliver's hospital room

Oliver is reading in his hospital bed

*There is a knock on the door, it opens and it's Cadence, Duckie and Jackie holding a cake*

Oliver: Hey Jackie, Hey girls. What brings you to this neck of the woods?

Cadence: We're here to make you feel better... *Attempts to stick her boobs in the CAKE. Duckie stops her*

Oliver: *ignores the fact that Cadence is weird* What's with the cake? Is it one of your birthdays? Well it's not mine... I think... No it's February so there's still 3 months

Duckie: It's March!

Oliver: ... But yesterday was Valentine's Day! This doesn't make any sense.

Duckie: Ohhh. You still have the amnesia thing, right?

Oliver: I never had amnesia. But if you say it's may... I guess it can be march... If you guys want it to be? You've lost me... I don't understand why everyone is saying I have amnesia! I remember everything! I NEVER forget things. I swear.

Jackie: Are you sure? Wasn't there that one time where you forgot Duckie?

Oliver: No! What the hell are you on about?!

Cadence: Don't mind her, she's on drugs. Well, so am I but-

Oliver: Then I don't think being high in a hospital is a good idea girls...

Cadence: Well, neither is having sex with a guy you KNOW has an STD, but I do that all the time!

Oliver: Okay... Immediately moving on... So what date are you guys pretending it is?

Duckie: I don't actually know? You guys KNOW I'm bad with dates.

Jackie: 9th March!

Oliver: Awe thanks girls. Is Andrew here too? We can all have a party. The more permanent residents like myself have a larger room. Big enough for a small party and I've got some speakers!

Jackie: Are you using sarcasm? Andrew won't be pleased if you are.

Oliver: No... It's bigger than the rest of the hospital rooms.

Jackie: Oh... *Frowns* Now I'm thinking of Andrew again... *Cries*

Oliver: Aren't you still dating? When did you break up?

Jackie: *Still sniffling* Around two months ago...

Oliver: Right. Well... Sorry? I don't really know what to do here... Sorry Jackie?

Jackie: *Starts crying even harder and then flings herself onto Duckie* Hold me!

*Someone knocks at the door*

Cadence: *In a "sexy voice"* Who is it?

*Oliver gets up to open the door and Andrew and Jayden are outside*

Andrew: *Smiles brightly and hugs Oliver* Hey Oliver!

Oliver: Hey man- but you *points at Jayden* I thought you were blacklisted

Jayden: I-Uh... *Looks to Andrew for help*

Andrew: He's got an apology gift for you...?

Oliver: *Looks sceptical* He does?

Jayden: YEAH! Here. It's chocolate. Enjoy. *secretly flipping out*

Oliver: *Raises his eyebrow* Is it poison?

Andrew: No silly. I helped make it. Nothing bad's in there. If you don't Trust me. I'll eat one to test. All the same batch

Cadence: OH! Can I have one!

Andrew: *Blunt* Are you going to shove one up your vagina?

Cadence: ... Maybe

Andrew: Then no.

Oliver: How about we just cut the cake and share around the chocolates? But Cadence gets none. I'm being serious.

Cadence: UGH FINE! I'll just get some from the vending machine!

Oliver: No vagina chocolates. You will keep your pants on or I'll call security.

*Andrew collapses into a laughing fit*

Oliver: I'll cut the cake. *pulls knife from under the bed*

Andrew: *Stops laughing* Uh, why was there a knife under the bed?

Oliver: *looks awkward and very scared* Don't tell the staff!

Andrew: *Both Andrew and Jayden look horrified* Why is it there?!

Oliver: I'm not saying.

Andrew: *Stares at him menacingly* Yes. You are.

Oliver: Y-You can't make me.

Andrew: Jackie. *Jackie turns towards Andrew* Get the staff. *Jackie leaves*

Oliver: No don't! I don't want to be in here anymore! *Bursts into tears* HOW THE FUCK WOULD YOU LIKE IT IF YOU WERE STUCK IN A BLAND TOOM WITH ONLY YOUR HEAD?! Just please. don't. *Everyone is staring in shock*

Jayden: O-Oliver...

Oliver: Don't! Just DON'T! Until you have something to compare it to and you're the one they threatened with shock treatment and a lobotomy, I don't want to hear a peep from any of you about this. Got. It?

Cadence: *Pats Oliver's back* I know your feel. I'm pregnant and suicidal too.

Oliver: *turns around and accidentally throws the knife into the wall* Cadence. Come to me when you have a real problem. Okay?

Jayden: *Rolls his eyes* I'm pretty sure she has one.

Jackie: *Runs in* I've got the authorities!

Cadence: YAY! More Police to fuck!

Andrew: Cadence, now is not the time.

*Oliver shrinks into a corner*

Jayden: Oliver? Are you okay?

Oliver: *voice shaking* I'm completely fine. Absolutely. *mutters gibberish to himself*

Andrew: Oliver. You aren't fine. Don't fight us. We're trying to help you.

Oliver: I'LL FIGHT YOU IF I WANT TO!

Cadence: *Smirks* In what way?

Andrew: FOR FUCKS SAKE CADENCE!

Police officer: If there's no emergency, WHY THE HELL ARE WE HERE?! And is that boy *gestures to Oliver* high or something?

Cadence: *Walks over to the Officer and starts feeling him up* No sir. *In a raspy voice* But I am...

Officer: Yesh. Okay. You are under arrest for melrstation and will be coming down to the station. And... There is a butchers knife in the wall?! Who brought a knife into a hospital?!

Jackie: It was Oliver!

Oliver: *laughs hysterically* Ring around the rosies a pocket full of possies ashes to ashes to ashes to ashes to ashes..

Officer: ... Yeah we need to get him down to the station.

Oliver: *looks at the empty chocolate box and sees the picture as he's being dragged off* J-Jayden? * Police, Cadence and Oliver exit*

Jayden: O-OLIVER!
