Misfit Equipment and Unexpected Questions

Coach What the hell are you?

Lucas Excuse me?

Coach Who suited you up?

Lucas Well, I'd like to speak to you about that. This equipment just doesn't fit.

Coach No, that's not the problem. It's you that don't fit. Now go turn it in.

Lucas Excuse me. I can run really fast when I concentrate.

Coach I said turn it in. Now, get off the field. All right, everybody inside for chalk talk! Shower up, first. Let's go, go, go, go, go, go!

[yells to the other players]

Lucas You're making a big mistake. I'll be good at this. I can lower my center of gravity. See? Look. See? And my size, I gotta run fast. If they catch me, I'm dead.

[Lucas does a few little spins left and right]

Coach Just, listen, little buddy. We got our first game this Saturday against Rockford and I don't have time to dick around with you.

Lucas Well, I'm afraid... you'll have to, sir... dick around with me. The Supreme Court, by virtue of the sexual discrimination act says, that if anyone tries out for a team sport has to be given the same chance as everyone else. Now, if you wish to cut me based on my performance, that's your right, but I'll take you to court if you try it before.

Coach What's this shit?

Lucas I looked it up. My family's in law.

Jealousy and Exclusion Among Friends

Cappie I'm just being nice to her.

Alise Well, stop being nice to her! I don't want you talking to her anymore, I don't want to turn around and see you walking with her and smiling at her. I don't want her in this car on Friday night. We're not giving her any ride to any goddamn dance, she can put her fat ass on the back of Lucas's bike where it damn well belongs!

Emotional Vulnerability and Peer Pressure

Maggie Come on out, Lucas. I know you're in there. I can see your feet. Have you been crying?

[joins Lucas under the bridge]

Lucas Yeah. So what? I mean, wimps do that. Didn't you know? Just like big, strong guys.

Maggie What do you want me to do, Lucas?

Lucas I don't care. Just keep doing what you're doing. Go to bed with him.

Maggie That's not fair.

Lucas Yeah, a lot of things aren't fair.

Maggie Lucas, you and I were just friends.

Lucas Why?

Maggie What do you mean, why?

Lucas I mean, why just friends?

Maggie Because that's all we were.

Lucas Yeah, but why?

Maggie Well, you're 14.

Lucas Romeo was 14.

Maggie I don't know, Lucas. There are certain people you like in a certain way, and others you like as a friend. I don't know why. You know about science, do you know why?

Lucas Yeah. Actually, I do. It's called the process of natural selection. You ever heard of Darwin? The males who demonstrate physical prowess are the most attractive to the females. And by breeding with the strongest males, the females ensure survival of the species.

Maggie You know how wonderful you are?

Lucas Yeah, but it doesn't turn you on, does it?

Maggie Lucas, we're just friends.

Maggie What am I going to do with you?

Lucas Go away. Go. Leave! LEAVE!! GO!! GO AWAY!!!

[Heartbroken, he gets up and goes to the nest; eyes her]

Desire for Opportunity in Sports

Coach What the hell are you doing?

Lucas I'm ready to go in. I can run fast. I can win this game.

Coach Just get out of here, will you?

Lucas Look, just give me one chance. One play.

Coach Get out of here, I said. Get off of the field.

Lucas Look, I'll make you a deal. You have nothing to lose. They're whipping your ass, anyway.

Coach Listen to me...

Lucas Put me in, I'll never come back, I swear. Just let me play today. You have nothing to lose, just let me in.

Coach Hear me good, you pissant, because I'm only going to tell you one more time.

Lucas Don't you call me that. Don't you call me a pissant, you dumb, fucking jock.

Coach What'd you say?

Lucas You heard me, pencil-brain. I mean, who are we kidding here, who is the pissant? The second-rate coach of a third rate team or me?

Coach What's your name?

Lucas Lucas.

Coach I mean your last name!

Lucas Bly.

Coach You're right, Bly. I've got nothing to lose by sending you in. Karger out! Bly in!

Plans Change Due to Relationship Issues

Lucas So, you ready to go?

Maggie I don't think we can go, Lucas.

Lucas Why not?

Maggie Cappie and Alise broke up today.

Lucas But aren't they here?

Maggie Cappie's here, and he's very depressed. Sit down.

Maggie She was jealous, or she doesn't like me or something. She said she'd break up with him if he went through with it. She didn't want to go with us, Luke. So, I think we have to call it off.

Lucas I have my bike. We can still go.

Maggie He kind of needs someone with him tonight. I don't want to leave him by himself. He had tears in his eyes when he came over tonight. Can you imagine that big, strong guy crying?

Cappie Hi, Luke. I am sorry, Bud. Am I a drag, or what?

Lucas Listen. I think you should come to the dance with us. I think it'd cheer you up.

Cappie Naw. I'd feel like a third wheel. We were thinking of going out for a pizza. Why don't you come with us?

Maggie Yeah, why don't you?

Lucas You're going out for pizza.

Cappie Well, it's just a suggestion.

Lucas If you're so depressed how come you're eating pizza?

Cappie Maybe I should just go home.

Lucas No. Go eat pizza. Don't let me spoil your depression.

Maggie Are you okay? Where are you going?

Lucas To the dance.

Maggie By yourself?

Lucas Hey, I'm a party animal.

Lucas

Deciding on a New Venture

Maggie I think I'm going to do this today.

Lucas Cheerleading?

Maggie Well, check it out.

Lucas What for?

Maggie I might want to do it.

Lucas What, be a cheerleader?

Maggie I don't know. Is that all right, Lucas?

Maggie Well, the way you were looking at me.

Lucas Whatever. We can collect tadpoles tomorrow.

Maggie Well, If I like it, I will be doing it tomorrow, too. They practice everyday.

Maggie It sounds like fun, Lucas. well, didn't you hear what they said? Away games and buses and stuff.

Lucas I guess everybody has their own idea of fun. Some people go to football games. Other people do less superficial things.

Maggie Look, just because you don't approve of something, doesn't mean other people don't have a right to enjoy it. You're in the band aren't you?

Lucas Yeah?

Maggie So?

Lucas So?

Maggie So the band goes to football games!

Lucas We're totally different!

Maggie Why?

Lucas Because the band does not have fun there!

Maggie Then why do you do it?

Lucas I don't know.

Maggie Well, figure it out, and in the meantime don't call people superficial because they just want to have fun. Look, I'm new here. I don't know anybody. Why can't you be helpful and understanding about that?

Body Image and Insecurities Among Friends

Bruno Leukoplakia! They actually found a jock strap to fit you? Somebody should stop by home ec. tomorrow to pick up a thimble. Or maybe a thimble is too big. How about a contact lens and a band aid?

Lucas Are you referring to the size of my penis?

Bruno Yeah, I am.

Lucas With a flaccid penis, it's the number of folds that count. Besides, I'm not semi-erect like some of you guys here.

Bruno What did you say?

Lucas A University of Chicago study. You can tell the fags in a warm shower by who's got the longest dong. Hey, yours seems to be growing even now.

Bruno The hell it is!

Lucas It IS, look!

A Risky Encounter with Unexpected Outcomes

Maggie You could have gotten killed.

[at the hospital, she begins to cry]

Lucas Did we win?

Maggie No way.

Lucas Boy. They sure were big.

Maggie I don't want you ever playing football again.

[she laughs]

Luca Okay.

Maggie You.

Lucas Magpie.

Maggie Locust. They're all gone, you know. The locusts. I was just outside. They aren't making any noise anymore.

Lucas Not for 17 years.

Lucas I'm sorry for doing this.

Maggie I guess you had to.

Lucas Yeah.

Maggie You know, survival of the species and all. What are you thinking?

[both smile]

Lucas I'm just wondering where we'll be when they come back.

Maggie Who?

Lucas The locusts.

Maggie Gosh, I don't know.

Lucas You'll be 33.

Maggie Oh, wow.

Lucas I'll be 31 1/2. I wonder if we'll still know each other.

Maggie I don't know.

Lucas I hope so.

Maggie Oh, me too.
