MARCO: OKAY, SO...
THEN THE RED LIGHTS, THEY COME UP,
HITTING DARCY STAGE LEFT.
GOT IT.
RED LIGHTS, PAIGE LEFT.
RED LIGHT, DARCY LEF-
I'M SORRY.
MY-MY MIND IS JUST PREOCCUPIED THIS MORNING.
WHAT? HOT DATE WITH DARCY LAST NIGHT,
AFTER THAT BIZARRE
YET STRANGELY MOVING RE-VIRGINIZING CEREMONY?
DEPENDS. WOULD YOU DEFINE "HOT DATE"
AS BRUTAL FIGHT AND BREAK UP?
NO, I WOULDN'T.
YOU OKAY?
LAST NIGHT, AFTER THE BREAK UP...
I KISSED SOMEBODY.
SOMEBODY WHO WASN'T DARCY.
HEY, GUYS.
HEY STAGE.
PAIGE.
UH HON, I'D THINK YOU'D KNOW MY NAME BY NOW.
I MEAN, REALLY.
SPINNER: OF COURSE I KNOW YOUR NAME, PAIGE.
I KNOW TONS ABOUT YOU.
I KNOW YOUR BIRTHDAY,
I KNOW YOUR FAVOURITE FOOD,
I KNOW- OOPH!
[HARD IMPACT]
TAKE IT FROM SOMEONE WHO KNOWS, SPIN.
TOKING BEFORE SCHOOL ENDS IN TRAGEDY.
HEY! IT WASN'T YOU AND PAIGE, WAS IT?
SPINNER: DARCY?
TAKE ME BACK.
I'M SORRY FOR BEING SUCH A JEALOUS FREAK,
BUT I'M OVER IT.
MALE STUDENT: [WHISTLES] WOO HOO!
JUST CONSIDER IT.
CONSIDER ME.

HAZEL: SO IF YOU AND ALEX WANT TO,
A BUNCH OF GIRLS ARE GOING FOR FONDUE.
NICE OF YOU TO ASK,
BUT UH, ALEX ISN'T SO "FOND-UE" OF ME.
WE BROKE UP.
PAIGE...
IT'S OKAY.
I MEAN, I CARE ABOUT HER TONS,
BUT WE WERE SO NOT RIGHT.
BESIDES,
LAST NIGHT, I UM...
I MIGHT'VE MADE OUT WITH SPINNER...
A LITTLE BIT.
SPINNER?
BUT I JUST GOT USED TO YOU BEING A LESBIAN!
THIS ISN'T ABOUT YOU, IT'S ABOUT ME.
AND RIGHT NOW I'M ABOUT BEING FREE TO DATE
WHO I WANT TO DATE -
GIRL OR BOY.
YEARBOOK, TOBY?
AND BTW,
WHAT YOU HEAR AT YEARBOOK TABLE?
STAYS AT YEARBOOK TABLE.
JUST SO YOU KNOW, I TOTALLY SUPPORT YOUR FREEDOM
TO DATE WHOMEVER.
AND BTW,
TOTALLY AVAILABLE.
[MOUTHS "CALL ME"]
[LAUGHS]
JIMMY: YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME.
THE GHOST OF ASHLEY KERWIN!
HOW YOU DOIN'?
I'M NO GHOST. I'M THE REAL THING!
YOU LOOK GREAT.
SO YOU'RE HERE.
AH, DID YOU FINALLY GET TIRED OF LONDON OR...?
I COULD NEVER GET TIRED OF LONDON.
MM, YOU KNOW, BUT I GOT TIRED OF MISSING HOME.
TRIED SOME SCHOOLS THERE,
BUT COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING QUITE LIKE THIS.
YEAH, GUESS IT'S, IT'S KINDA HARD TO FIND
A SCHOOL WITH...
SUCH A UNIQUE COMBO OF SHOOTINGS
AND GONORRHEA OUTBREAKS.
[LAUGHS]
OKAY, YEAH, SOME BAD STUFF'S HAPPENED HERE.
BUT THERE'S SOME GOOD PEOPLE HERE TOO,
LIKE JIMMY BROOKS.
OH, WELL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
BUT DON'T GET USED TO HIM
BECAUSE I'M GONNA BE OUTTIE NEXT YEAR,
HOPEFULLY.
MM, THAT'S TOO BAD.
I WAS KINDA HOPING WE COULD BE CLASSMATES AGAIN.
I WAS TALKING TO MS. HATZILAKOS
ABOUT MAYBE COMING BACK NEXT YEAR.
MS. KERWIN'S BACK IN TOWN.
HEY!
HEY, JIMMY, SHE'S ALL YOURS.
OKAY. UM, WE GOTTA CATCH UP LATER.
OKAY?
SO, I HAVE TO CONGRATULATE YOU, JIMMY.
YOU'VE PUT A LOT OF WORK IN THIS YEAR.
WELL, THANK YOU, MS. H.
LIKE COACH SAYS,
YOU KNOW, IT'S IMPORTANT TO BE MOTIVATED
AND [SIGHS] I WAS DEFINITELY MOTIVATED.
MM HMM.
JIMMY: IT'S REALLY- IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT FOR ME
TO GRADUATE THIS YEAR.
AND UH, I KNOW I MISSED A LOT OF SCHOOL FOR PHYSIO,
BUT I FIGURED THERE WAS SOME WAY
YOU COULD SWING THIS.
I'M SORRY, JIMMY.
YOU SIMPLY DON'T HAVE THE CREDITS.
I CAN'T WORK MIRACLES.
SPINNER: HEY, LOOKS LIKE YOU COULD USE A HAND.
JIMMY: I'M FINE, THANKS.
I SAID, I'M FINE. THANK YOU.
JUST WANTED TO HELP, MAN.
JIMMY: YOU WANNA HELP ME?
WHY DON'T YOU TRANSFER TO ANOTHER SCHOOL
SO I DON'T HAVE TO SEE YOUR STUPID FACE NEXT YEAR.
THAT WOULD HELP - A LITTLE BIT.
WHAT IS YOUR DAMAGE, MAN?
MY DAMAGE, MAN, IS YOU, GAVIN!
MARCO: HEY! WHOA! RELAX! CHILL!
CAN'T WE JUST GET THROUGH THE REST OF THE YEAR
WITHOUT ANYMORE DRAMA?
ASK HIM THAT.
[SIGHS]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER AND P.A. SYSTEM]
ASHLEY: [GIGGLING]
ELLIE: ASH?
SOME BEST FRIEND!
YOU COULDN'T HAVE EMAILED?
WHAT AND RUIN THE SURPRISE?
YOU LOOK AMAZING, EL.
LIKEWISE.
WHO ELSE GOT TO SEE YOU SO FAR?
MOST OF THE OLD GANG: JIMMY. PAIGE, HAZEL.
NO SIGN OF CRAIG, THOUGH.
HE'S IN VANCOUVER.
RECORDING THE BIG SOLO RECORD EXTRAVAGANZA,
REALLY? WOW.
I GUESS I KNEW HE WAS ALWAYS DESTINED FOR GREATNESS.
ELLIE: DON'T BE SO SURE.
HE'S DATING MANNY.
EW! THAT MAKES ME VAGUELY ITCHY.
ME TOO!
OF COURSE IT COULD JUST BE LABEL CHAFE,
NEW SHIRT AND ALL.
SO, HOW'S ALISTAIR,
AKA ALI,
AKA YOUR LONDON LAD?
AH, IT WAS GOOD,
AND THEN IT WAS BAD,
AND THEN IT WAS OVER.
HOW ABOUT YOU?
OH, I'M CRUSHING ON SOMEONE, AS USUAL.
BUT UM, IT'LL NEVER HAPPEN...
AS USUAL.
SPIN, THESE THINGS, THEY'LL WORK THEMSELVES OUT.
DARCY: HEY, SPIN.
CUP OF COFFEE TO GO?
I HEARD ABOUT THE BIG FREAKSHOW
WITH JIMMY?
AND I'M SORRY,
'CAUSE I KNOW HOW MUCH HE MEANS TO YOU.
WHATEVER.
I'M DONE WITH THAT GUY.
SPINNER, THAT'S THE BIGGEST LIE.
I KNOW YOU WOULD GIVE EVERYTHING YOU HAVE
JUST TO BE FRIENDS WITH HIM AGAIN.
SO, DON'T GIVE UP.
HE'LL COME AROUND.
I KNOW IT.
LISTEN DARCE,
IF YOU'RE STILL COOL WITH IT,
TODAY WE'RE BACK TOGETHER.
OH, I BROUGHT YOU SOMETHING...
JUST IN CASE.
I'LL NEVER TAKE IT OFF.
OH SUGAR.
I HAVE TO GO PACK FOR BIBLE CAMP,
BUT MAYBE AFTER WE CAN CELEBRATE?
YOU GOT IT.
[DOOR CHIMES JINGLE]
OKAY, NOW YOU HAVE TO TELL-
YEAH, I KNOW. I GOTTA CALL PAIGE.
I'LL GO OVER THERE AFTER WORK AND...
BREAK THE BAD NEWS.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
ASHLEY: WHO KNEW YOU HAD SO MUCH BEAUTY STORED UP INSIDE?
HAVE YOU SEEN THE ULTRA-DISTURBING
VIOLENT HORROR STUFF?
ELLIE NASH, MY BIGGEST FAN.
I SO AM AND YOU KNOW IT.
OH, I'M LATE FOR A MOVIE.
SEE YOU.
JIMMY: BYE.
YOU TWO LOOK COZY.
WE'RE FRIENDS, ASH.
YEAH, BUT YOU WANT IT TO BE MORE.
OKAY, SO MAYBE I DO, BUT WHATEVER.
IT'S POINTLESS. SHE'S NOT INTO ME.
WHAT MAKES YOU SO SURE?
WHAT'S TEN POUNDS,
METAL AND VINYL,
HAS TWO WHEELS?
YEAH, BUT UNTIL YOU MENTIONED IT JUST NOW,
I COMPLETELY FORGOT YOU WERE EVEN IN A CHAIR.
THAT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE SITTING.
IT'LL BECOME MORE APPARENT WHEN YOU STAND.
ALL RIGHT, BUT DON'T GET TOO DOWN ON YOURSELF
'CAUSE YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH A CRUSH.
I THINK ELLIE'S CRUSHING ON YOU TOO, ROMEO.
SHE PRETTY MUCH TOLD ME SO.
[CHUCKLES] [KNOCK AT THE DOOR]
YOU DECENT? DYLAN LET ME IN.
PAIGE: OH MY GOD, SPIN,
YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THIS OLD YEARBOOK
RIGHT THIS MINUTE!
OKAY, I-I THOUGHT WE COULD TALK THOUGH?
SURE, HON. PLEASE, JUST INDULGE ME FIRST,
AND FEAST YOUR EYES ON THIS...
SPINNER: CHECK IT OUT.
WE WERE COUPLE OF THE YEAR.
UH, HOW COULD WE NOT BE?
WE WERE UNBELIEVABLY SUPER ADORABLE.
BOTH: [CHUCKLE]
SPINNER: THERE WE ARE -
THE OLD GANG.
WE RAN AT THAT SCHOOL.
REMEMBER?
YOU EVER JUST WISH YOU HAD A TIME MACHINE?
I JUST WANNA GO BACK, YOU KNOW?
BEFORE IT ALL WENT...
ALL WENT TO CRAP.
PAIGE: SPIN?
JUST SO YOU KNOW,
I NEVER BLAMED YOU FOR WHAT HAPPENED...
WITH JIMMY.
DO YOU MEAN THAT?
PAIGE...
BOTH: [LAUGHING]
JT: THAT'S REALLY MATURE.
YEAH WELL, IT'S STILL FUNNY.
IN HONOUR OF OUR LAST CLASS, SIR,
WE GIVE YOU THIS - A LITTLE MERCI GIFT.
[APPLAUSE]
WHAT? COME ON, GUYS.
[GIGGLING]
SOMEONE'S IN A GOOD MOOD.
I JUST HOPE WE CAN ALL GET A LITTLE BIT
OF WHATEVER'S GOTTEN INTO YOU, PAIGE.
I'M NOT SURE THAT'S ADVISABLE, SIR.
SIMPSON: OH GUYS, THIS IS SO PERFECT.
YOU HAVE KNOW IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE KARAOKE.
I'LL DIG OUT MY ELVIS WIG, FIRE UP THE MIC,
AND SEE IF I CAN'T GET MYSELF
INTO SOME SORT OF COUNTY FAIR
ELVIS IMPERSONATOR CONTEST.
I'LL BE TALL LANKY ELVIS.
[EXHALES]
DARCY: SPIN.
HERE YOU ARE!
I'VE BEEN CALLING YOU FOR AGES!
OH. MY PHONE.
THE RINGER'S OFF.
WELL, WHERE WERE YOU LAST NIGHT?
WE SAID WE WERE GONNA CELEBRATE.
I KNOW, I KNOW.
BUT I WAS...
I WAS ARRANGING A GOING AWAY GIFT FOR YOU.
THAT'S SO SWEET.
BUT YOU KNOW, I WOULD'VE EASILY TRADED THE GIFT
TO GET TO SEE YOU LAST NIGHT.
BREAK A LEG OUT THERE, OKAY?
JT: WELCOME EVERYBODY
TO "HERBAL ESSENCES PRESENTS 50 YEARS OF DEGRASSI".
I AM YOUR HOST, SIR PHILIP DEGRASSI,
AND I'M HIS LOVELY DAUGHTER, CHARLOTTE.
AND TODAY WE'RE TAKING YOU
ON A MAGICAL HISTORY TOUR.
MANNY: STARTING WITH 1968,
PLEASE WELCOME TO THE STAGE,
DARCY EDWARDS AND HER LOVE PARADE!
CROWD: [APPLAUDS]
[1960'S MUSIC STARTS]
PAIGE!
I'VE BEEN LOOKING EVERYWHERE FOR YOU.
ME TOO. AH...
I WANTED TO SAY MERCI. [LAUGHS]
FOR WHAT?
LAST NIGHT, DORKUS.
IT FELT LIKE THE RIGHT WAY
TO END SCHOOL.
JUST DON'T FORGET ME, OKAY?
I WASN'T PLANNING ON IT.
I WAS- I WAS KINDA HOPING THAT UM...
WHOA! HON, YOU'RE...
YOU'RE NOT SERIOUS?
WE'RE BOTH MOVING ON.
BUT I WILL ALWAYS HAVE THE BESTEST MEMORIES
OF MY FIRST REAL BOYFRIEND -
YOU.
YOU-YOU USED ME FOR MY BODY.
EMMA: MANNY, THAT WAS AWESOME.
DON'T FORGET US WHEN YOU'RE ON BROADWAY.
SHOW YOUR AGENT.
MAYBE IT'LL HELP GET YOU THERE.
YOU TAPED IT?
YEAH. I USED MY POWERS FOR GOOD THIS TIME.
THANKS.
JIMMY: ELLIE, HI.
ELLIE: WHAT'S UP?
YOU LOOK GREAT.
I MEAN, YOU ALWAYS LOOK GREAT.
BUT TONIGHT, YOU LOOK GREAT.
BOTH: [CHUCKLE]
OH HEY, I WAS JUST WONDERING,
HOW DO I LOOK?
COULD IT MAYBE BE GREAT?
[LAUGHS]
UM, LOOK YOU'VE BECOME ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS,
RIGHT? AND...
YOU OPENED MY EYES TO A LOT OF THINGS.
I WANTED TO KNOW IF MAYBE WE COULD
TALK ABOUT TAKING IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL?
BUT YOU DON'T.
JIMMY, I'M-I'M SORRY. I-
DON'T BE.
IT'S NOT COMPLETELY UNEXPECTED.
I'M GONNA GO, OKAY?
ASHLEY: EL, WHAT HAPPENED?
I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WERE CRUSHING ON SOMEONE.
HE'S NOT THE GUY, ASH.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYS] [INDISTINCT CHATTER]
C'MON, DANCE WITH ME.
YOU'VE BEEN A TOTAL WEIRDO ALL NIGHT.
DARCY, I'M AN IDIOT.
WHAT'RE YOU TALKING ABOUT, SPIN?
IT'S YOUR GIFT.
HEY, IT DIDN'T COME.
I'VE BEEN TEXTING BACK AND FORTH WITH THE GUY
AND HE JUST BAILED, THE JERK.
SEEING AS I HAVE TO WAIT THE WHOLE SUMMER...
MAYBE YOU COULD GIVE ME THE TEENSIEST OF HINTS?
GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT.
I'M GONNA GET US SOME DRINKS.
[SIGHS]
ASHLEY: JIMMY! JIMMY, WAIT.
I'M SORRY!
PLEASE, THIS IS ALL MY FAULT.
LOOK ASHLEY, IT'S FINE. REALLY. OKAY?
NO. JIMMY. JIMMY!
IT'S NOT. LOOK...
YOU'RE AN AMAZING GUY.
YOU DESERVE TO BE WITH SOMEONE WHO ADORES YOU.
LOOK I'M GONNA LET YOU IN ON A SECRET.
GIRLS DON'T DIG GUYS IN WHEELCHAIRS.
YOU WERE SAYING?
[DANCE MUSIC] [INDISTINCT CHATTER]
I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT MY GIFT WAS.
DARCE, YOU DIDN'T READ MY TEXTS?
[EXHALES]
SOME GIFT, SPINNER.
SPECIAL.
YOU SUCK.
MARCO: AND NOW,
AS WE HEAD OFF IN EVERY DIRECTION,
LET US REMEMBER THE TIES
WE HAVE TO EACH OTHER
AND TO DEGRASSI.
BECAUSE THE BEST THING ABOUT THE PAST
IS THAT IT'S JUST-
IT'S HUGE PART OF THE FUTURE, SO...
TO THE FUTURE.
TO US.
WE DID IT GUYS! [LAUGHS]
[APPLAUSE]
MS. HATZILAKOS: THANK YOU, MARCO, FOR A WONDERFUL SPEECH.
AND NOW, WITHOUT FURTHER ADO,
I'D LIKE TO WELCOME TO THE STAGE
DEGRASSI'S GRADUATING CLASS OF 2006!
[APPLAUSE] [CHEERING]
MS. HATZILAKOS: HAZEL ADEN.
SCOTT ANDERSON.
SUSAN BROWN.
SO, THERE THEY GO,
OUR CLASS, ONTO A BRIGHT FUTURE.
YOU SHOULD'VE BEEN UP THERE, MAN.
IT'LL BE OUR TURN NEXT YEAR, RIGHT?
I'M SORRY,
ARE WE ACTUALLY HAVING A CONVERSATION?
MS. HATZILAKOS: CHRIS HENDERSON...
LOOK UM...
I SPENT A LOT OF TIME THIS YEAR
BLAMING PEOPLE -
YOU ESPECIALLY -
AND UM, THAT WAS WRONG
AND I'M SORRY.
JIMMY, I DO-
IT'S COOL. I KNOW. [CHUCKLES]
I GOTTA GO.
[CLEARS THROAT] ALL RIGHT.
PEACE.
JIMMY: OH! [LAUGHS]

I'M NOT SURE THAT I CAN.
