CUT TO: SOUTHWEST ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT
INT. HALLWAY - MORNING
DRAY WALKS OUT OF THE CAFETERIA SIPPING ON A JUICE BOX. TWO STUDENTS STANDING AGAIN THEIR LOCKERS LAUGH AT DRAY UPON SEEING HIM.
[Student#1]
Hey bro what happened to you? You look like somebody caught you slipping.
[Dray]
Yeah?
[Student#2]
Yeah, you look like you got yo ass kicked so bad you should change your name to "shit happens."
[Dray]
Yeah? You look like a bug right before it gets stepped on. Like you're constantly surprised.
[Student#2]
What you say to me?
THE FIRST STUDENT CHUCKLES AND TAPS HIS FRIEND ON THE ARM.
[Student#1]
He trying to buck on you bro.
[Student#2]
I see. That don't really bother me though because he looks like a possum in the face.
[Dray]
You look like you aspire to be a cool waffle house manager.
[Student#2]
You look like Bernie Mac's long-lost ugly brother.
[Dray]
You look like a wet muppet.
STUDENT#1 CHUCKLES AND STUDENT#2 GIVES A SIDE GLANCE THAT BRINGS HIS CHUCKLING TO A SHARP END. STUDENT#2 THEN POINTS AT DRAY.
[Student#2]
Boy, you've got no room to talk; you are so nappy-headed that they need sheep sheers to cut your hair you can only afford discount FUBU.
DRAY CHUCKLES AND TAKES A SECOND TO THINK.
[Student#2]
Yeah, that's right. I got him silent.
[Student#1]
I don't know he looks like he's coming up with something.
DRAY LOOKS AT STUDENT#1'S HEAD. STUDENT#1 IS BALD AND HAS A BIGGER HEAD IN PROPORTION TO THE REST OF HIS BODY.
[Dray]
You look like the only accident you could ever get into is head-on.
[Student#2]
Dang bro.
[Student#1]
Hey, shut up!
[Dray]
Your favorite song is, "Keep Your Head Up." The only shampoo you can use is head and shoulders. You never need a GPS because you always know where you're headed. Head cold is a literal condition for you. If you went into politics you'd be running for head of the state. People never tell you that you should leave, they always tell you to head out. People say that your best quality is how headstrong you are. Side note, based on the size of your forehead I bet that your second language is echolocation.
STUDENT#2 LAUGHS SO HARD THAT HE HAS TO LEAN ON THE WALL FOR SUPPORT. DRAY CHUCKLES AND STUDENT#2 GRABS DRAY BY HIS COLLAR.
[Student#2]
Hey, nigga, I got a rate condition that makes it difficult to grow my hair out.
[Dray]
Get your hands off of me! It's not my fault your mom's still mad at you because she had to get a C-section.
