has the ball, and makes a pass to another team member, but
gets intercepted by a shirtless team member, this doesn’t
last long, The Big Kid, pushes him harshly and falls on his
face. Someone yells:
"Fault"

goes forward with the ball, kids try to stop him, but he
manages to avoid it... and Shoots.
The archer of the shirtless team, lunges forward to stop

CUT TO.

EXT. BY THE SOCCER FIELD, WITH THE BAGS. AFTER MATCH

The kids from the shirt team are taking their sweaty shirts
and and changing their shorts to their regular clothes.
THE BIG KID
It would have been better, if
Michael (the shirt team archer),
over there want so afraid of the
stupid ball.

(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 2.

OTHER KIDS
Yeah! what a wuss!
MICHAEL
(to himself)
Im not afraid

The attractive kid doesn’t join them, a quietly keeps

changing his clothes.
THE BIG KID
Maybe baby wuss here, needs his
mommy to kick the ball so he wont
be afraid... boo hoo!
The big kid, then, throws a wet dirty pair of shorts to
Micheal’s face, who takes it off immediately in disgust. The
other kids laugh.
Michael, bends to pick up his bag trying to get out of there
as fast as he can, but another kid jumps him and lift his
shirt over his head. The other kids laugh watching him walk
a few steps blinded. He is confused for a second, try to
gets it back down... but then the big kid gets behind him
and gives him a huge wedgie.
THE BIG KID
now you’ll learn to be afraid of
something else than the ball.

MICHAEL
Arrrrghhh!!!
The other kids laugh, and join in in the wedgie, finally,
ripping his underwear and leaving him on the floor. The
kids play around with the underwear shreds throwing against
them... and then leave the field, laughing.
The attractive kid also leaves after them, looking back at
bullied michael. who still changing and picking his torn
boxers from the floor.

INT. HALLWAY BY THE REHEARSAL CLASSROOM.

The kids, are still joyous about their victory and
commenting on Micheal’s extreme wedgie...
OTHER KID
"Its called an atomic wedgie when
you get it over their head"

(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 3.

They talk about getting the underwear to the head to next

one who screws up. They loudly, pass in front of a class
room where the choir rehearsals are taking place.
THE BIG KID
Check t out the girls are singing!
He pops his head through the semi open door of the classroom
and sings mocking a operatic singing voice. His friends
laugh... and some imitate him. The girls inside gillge,
while the teacher angry yells!

CHOIR TEACHER
Jacobo! (the Big Kid’s Name)
He/She then hurries and shuts the door!

The kids laugh and move along the hall till they dissappear,
behind, the Attractive Kid still walking behind them, stops
in front of the now closed door of the rehearsal classroom.
He is reading a school poster in there that read.
CARTEL
Admisiones de coro! Este sábado!
Unete y forma parte de algo
especial.
The Attractive kid, raises an eyebrow in doubt... the poster
is ugly... but inside the voices of the choir singing are
beutifull. Suddenly, a strong voice from the other end of
the hall calls him.
THE BIG KID
Juan! (The ttractive Kids name)
whats keeping you man! my mom wont
be late to pick us up!...
Then he stops and notices that Juan is looking at the choir
poster. and starts to laugh at him. And runs back to the
other yelling.

THE BIG KID

Wow Check it out!! girl wants to
join the choir!
JUAN PABLO
(runnign behind the big kid)

The other kids laugh, and tease juan pablo ny imitating him,
and telling him he should do it before his voice breaks.
Juan looks down and blushes. We see them dissapear out of
the hall out of the school.

eyes closed... he is listening music with his earphone on

He then sees that on one end is the soccer team ligned up
waiting for him to make a goal... in the other is the choir
of girls singing that beautifull song with a vacant spot in
the middle.

He looks at both.. but looks at the desperate look of his
