　　WILL
　　--"Wood drastically underestimates the
　　impact of social distinctions predicated
　　upon wealth， especially inheriated
　　wealth……" You got that from "Work in
　　Essex County，" Page 421， right？ Do
　　you have any thoughts of your own on
　　the subject or were you just gonna
　　plagerize the whole book for me？
　　
　　Clark is stunned.
　　
　　WILL（cont’’d）
　　Look， don’’t try to pass yourself off
　　as some kind of an intellect at the
　　expense of my friend just to impress
　　these girls.
　　
　　Clark is lost now， searching for a graceful exit， any exit.
　　
　　WILL （cont’’d）
　　The sad thing is， in about 50 years
　　you might start doin’’ some thinkin’’ on
　　your own and by then you’’ll realize
　　there are only two certainties in life.
　　
　　CLARK
　　Yeah？ What’’re those？
　　
　　WILL
　　One， don’’t do that. Two-- you dropped
　　a hundred and fifty grand on an
　　education you coulda’’ picked up for a
　　dollar fifty in late charges at the
　　Public Library.
　　
　　Will catches Skylar’’s eye.
　　
　　CLARK
　　But I will have a degree， and you’’ll
　　be serving my kids fries at a drive
　　through on our way to a skiing trip.
　　
　　WILL
　　（smiles）
　　Maybe. But at least I won’’t be a prick.
　　（beat）
　　And if you got a problem with that， I
　　guess we can step outside and deal
　　with it that way.
　　
　　While Will is substantially smaller than Clark， he [Clark] decides not
　　to take Will up on his [Will’’s] offer.
　　
　　WILL （cont’’d）
　　If you change your mind， I’’ll be
　　over by the bar.
　　
　　He turns and walks away. Chuckie follows， throwing Clark a
　　look. Morgan turns to a nearby girl.
　　
　　MORGAN
　　My boy’’s wicked smart.
　　
　　INT. BOW AND ARROW， AT THE BAR --LATER
　　
　　Will sits with Morgan at the bar watching with some amusement
　　as Chuckie and Billy play bar basketball game where the players
　　shoot miniature balls at a small basket. In the B.G.
　　Occasionally we hear Chuckie shouting "Larry!" When he scores.
　　Skylar emerges from the crowd and approaches Will.
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　You suck.
　　
　　WILL
　　What？
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　I’’ve been sitting over there for forty-
　　five minutes waiting for you to come
　　talk to me. But I’’m just tired now
　　and I have to go home and I wasn’’t
　　going to keep sitting there waiting
　　for you.
　　
　　WILL
　　I’’m Will.
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　Skylar. And by the way.
　　That guy over there is a real dick and
　　I just wanted you to know he didn’’t
　　come with us.
　　
　　WILL
　　I kind of got that impression.
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　Well， look， I have to go. Gotta’’ get
　　up early and waste some more money on
　　my overpriced education.
　　
　　WILL
　　I didn’’t mean you. Listen， maybe……
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　Here’’s my number.
　　
　　Skylar produces a folded piece of paper and offers it to Will.
　　
　　SKYLAR （cont’’d）
　　Maybe we could go out for coffee
　　sometime？
　　
　　WILL
　　Great， or maybe we could go somewhere
　　and just eat a bunch of caramels.
　　
　　SKYLAR
