Film Transcript
All right. Well, look, we'll pick us up tomorrow. Go out there — it's a nice day. Make friends, have a nice time. We love. So you want this guy? Get the hell out of here. Let's keep it.
Wait, wait. What are you doing? I'm trying to just go hang out with her. No, you can't hang with girls. Come on, man. Hang — have some basketball with us.
Hey, Louis, you going to come help with that art project? The art teacher said that we have it in two days. It's due in two days.
I don't know who you are. Seriously, who is that? Seriously, go away. Who are you? No, go away. Seriously, whatever. Don't talk to me.
I thought you hate art, man. Was everything else a lie also? Do you even like basketball? We're not friends anymore.
Audrey, I apologise. I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have said those things. I shouldn't have done those things. I got caught up in a bad crowd and I should have got out of there sooner. I'm sorry.
We all have our own last service. What's important is for yours to be yours.
