Tara makes her relationship official on social media, but she isn't ready Please stop talking.

for the side effects. The friends try to play matchmaker with Elle and
Tao. Kiera Knightley: I don't know.

( light music playing ) ( gasps )

Sarah: Mamma Mia? Sorry, blacksmith's hands. I know they're rough. No. I mean, yes, they
are, but... Don't stop.
We've seen that four times this year.

we shared a kiss, and I didn't feel weird about it. I didn't feel like it
( Nellie whines ) was an odd thing to do. In fact, it felt incredibly right. I always felt like
I had these feelings for girls up to that point, but all of a sudden I
( cutlery clattering ) started having feelings for guys too. And that's when I realized, I'm
bisexual.
I've got it. Pirates of the Caribbean. It's a classic. What do you think?
( mellow music playing )
Yeah.
( indistinct chatter )
That sounds good.
This is a conversational lunchtime gathering we've got going on here.
Orlando Bloom on TV: Here. Let me.
Elle? Are you looking at Timothée Chamalet's Instagram again?
Remember that summer, we had to watch this every evening?
No. ( sighs )
It wasn't every evening.
Darcy: What are you doing then?
It was.
Elle: Nothing.
I could quote it word for word by the end of it.
Probably texting Tao.
I knew it was because you loved Keira Knightley.
I can text my friends if I want to.
Mum.
Texting Tao again. Interesting. Interesting indeed.
What? She's a very pretty girl.
Elle: What are you implying?
What do you think I'm implying? Wow.

( Tara chuckles ) I think you hurt his feelings.

I think I have a crush on Tao. Good.

( shrieks ) I knew it. ( pleasant music playing )

I literally knew it. ( horn blows )

Shut up! It's not like I can say anything to him. It's never gonna work. I always see you coming.

He's my best friend, and definitely doesn't like me back. One day. One day I'll get you.

You don't know that. Mind the door. That's the one that locks you in if you let it shut.

I definitely do. You realize this is the room?

You don't even want to try telling him? The room?

No. Can we talk about something else? Our special room. We got locked in and had our first kiss.

Ugh. Boring. ( chuckles ) What's going on? Are you okay?

Yeah. Tara, Darcy. I know it's nice to sit and gossip with your friends, but
you're both late for rehearsal. Come on.
Watch out, dick-nozzle.
( both giggle )
( boys laughing )
There's still one person that doesn't know we're a couple.
If you want my attention that badly, why don't you throw something at
me again? Like, literally the only person in a 50-mile radius, I swear to God.

Like your last remaining brain cell? ( instruments tuning )

Ooh. ( girls chattering )

That's not even...


Like, I never would have guessed that you were gay, but it's so cool Why do you have leftover cheese?
and brave of you.
It always pays to be prepared with anti-homophobia cheese.
Miss Hyder: Okay, eyes on me please, girls. Sitting up.
( chuckles )
Watching me, please.
I had a question.
With confidence, please, everybody. Come on.
Yeah?
( bell ringing )
I just wondered, like...
Don't forget, ladies, we'll be at Truham all day next Thursday to
practice for the spring concert. How did you realize you were gay?

Wait, we have another concert with them? Oh. Uh...

Darcy, I announced this weeks ago. I guess I've always been sort of aware of it.

I think Truham and Higgs should just combine into one giant school. Even when I was really young.

Yeah, same-sex schools are a pointless idea generally. I didn't understand it at the time, but...

I'm saying that as an absolute lesbian. It's always been boys.

( girls giggling ) I'm guessing you didn't feel the same when you were little.

She's so gross. Well, no.

girl: Lesbians are so disgusting. I don't know what I am.

What is their problem? You don't have to figure it out right now.

I swear people weren't like this before we came out. I didn't just wake up one day like, "Oh, look, guess I'm gay now."

Want me to throw cheese at them? I've got leftover cheese from lunch. ( chuckles )

Nah. It's not like they're saying it to my face. Well...


I'm sorry for being all confused. ( school bell rings )

I was the one who said sorry too much. Nick: I can't believe you get the whole day off to rehearse for this.

Oi! Sometimes playing a musical instrument has its benefits.

Charlie: Do you want to kiss? When is the concert?

Would that help? Friday night.

Wow. Can I come?

Just a suggestion. What? Why?

Wow. Because you're performing.

If you're not interested then... You don't have to come.

Okay. Hang on. You've probably got more interesting things to do.

It's a good suggestion. Charlie, come on! Your drum kit still isn't set up.

( dogs barking ) Please come in at one, two...

( indistinct conversation ) Tara: Hi, Nick.

( Nellie whines ) Nick: Tara.

Sorry. You're in the orchestra too?

Don't be sorry. Yeah.

vlogger: Growing up bisexual is constantly second-guessing yourself. I have literally no musical ability.
One day you'll have a crush on a guy, the next day you have a crush
on a girl, and you're sitting there going, "Which one is it? Make a Charlie tried to teach me the drums once and I am absolutely crap.
choice." And then you realize, there isn't a choice. It's a combination
of the both. Like, you can have both and it be okay. ( Tara chuckles )
You and Charlie getting along well then? Darcy!

Nick: Uh... ( laughs ) Triumph at last.

Yeah. Come on, girls. We're running through it again in a minute.

Actually... We're here all day if you want to meet us for lunch.

Well... Yeah, that'd be nice.

We're sort of going out. Miss Hyder: Okay, everyone. From the top!

Are you? Oh, my God, we've found another one.

I mean, we haven't made it official or anything, but... You can't tell anyone. She won't tell anyone.

Yeah. Yeah, I, um...

Please don't tell anyone though. Harry: Not having lunch with your boyfriend?

No, of course. Tao: No, I'm waiting for your mum, actually.

Funny how things turned out between us. boy: Classic!

What do you mean? Harry: Yeah, whatever.

I mean, when we were 13, I thought we'd be boyfriend and girlfriend I'm not really... out yet, or anything.
forever.
Do you want to be?
( both chuckle )
I don't know.
Yep. So did I.
I mean, I don't even know what my sexuality is.
Are you and Darcy out to your friends, then?
Darcy: That's okay.
Since I, uh, posted on Insta, everyone kind of knows now.
Tara didn't know she was a lesbian until we'd kissed, like, six times.
Um, some people were surprised, a couple of people already knew...
It was two times. Um...

( all laugh ) Happy to help.

Oh, my God, do you know what we need to do? Double dates. ( Tara and Darcy chuckle )

Us and Charlie, tomorrow night, before the concert, milkshakes. Uh, see you tomorrow?

I like milkshakes. Yeah, that sounds really good.

Tara: Good. Um...

Don't feel like you have to come out to anyone before you're ready. You're kind of the first people I've told about Charlie.

Oh. Yeah. Really?

Being out is hard. Yeah.

A lot of people will see you in a different way, and it is a lot to deal And does it feel good to have told someone?
with.
Yeah.
Can I ask you something?
Really does.
Yeah.
You can't come in here. Nick's coming round.
Are you, like... definitely gay?
Oh.
Or do you think you're bi, or...
I didn't realize you were in a committed relationship.
I mean, when we were 13, I think I did like you.
What?
I mean, I think I have liked girls before, so I wondered if you felt the
same. We're not...

I'm definitely gay. Kissing you was actually one of the things that He's not...
made me realize I don't like kissing guys.
Shut up.
( laughs ) Okay...
Wow. So not ready to tie the knot yet then? I told her we're going out.

( laughs ) Shut up. Oh, my God, that's amazing.

Even if we were together... ( laughing ) You're amazing.

Taken without permission from Wait. Are you sure you wanted to?
https://tvshowtranscripts.ourboard.org/
Um, yeah.
( knocking at door )
You didn't force yourself because I'm out...
( soft pop music playing )
No, I wanted to tell them.
What?
( Nick grunts )
What?
Nick: So, how about the concert tomorrow night?
You're staring.
You really don't have to come.
No I wasn't.
It'll be boring.
Yeah, you were.
No, I want to support you.
Do your homework.
( laughs softly ) Um...
( chuckles )
Okay, but if you change your mind, that's fine.
You know, I was talking to Tara at the rehearsal today...
And Tara and Darcy want us to go and get milkshakes with them
Yeah? before it starts.

You heard she came out, right? Like a double date.

Yeah, she put it on Insta. I've never been on a date.

I told her we're together. Me neither.

What? Want to go on one?


Yeah. I said what I said.

( both laugh softly ) ( laughs )

Cool. Um... Elle: Come on.

I'll... ( whirring )

I'll see you tomorrow. Tao: Do you ever play film music?

Okay. Tara: Yeah, sometimes.

Bye. Well, then it's not boring.

Bye. Why'd you agree to come then?

( cell phone chimes ) Because I'm a very nice and supportive friend.

( chuckles softly ) No, he came for the milkshakes and the milkshakes only.

( indistinct chatter ) I said that to you in confidence.

Ooh, ooh. How did you two become friends?

Oh. Oh! I was friends with Charlie first and Tao came along as a package deal.

Tao: Oh, no. Oh, no. ( exclaims )

Oh, whoa, whoa. Whoa! ( laughter )

( both chuckle ) ( rolling tongue ) Rude! You're lucky to have me.

Since when were you coming to this? You make a cute little pair.

I thought it was bribery to get me to come to his boring concert. So, we're ordering a second round, right?

You're here for the milkshakes then? Yeah.


Yeah. It's all right if you don't want to.

We can go and get them. Actually, no, sorry, that was stupid.

Tara: Can I have a strawberry one? We should.

Strawberry. I'd like that.

Banana again. ( laughs softly )

Oh, my God, no, that is a crime! After we'd kissed, like, six times...

I cannot believe you're disrespecting bubblegum flavor in front of me. It was two, but sure.

Right. Let me try yours. ...Tara agreed to be my girlfriend.

Wow. That's a really cute story. You two seem good together.

See? I make good choices. Yeah, I think it's because we're friends too.

We should swap. Seems obvious. You should be good friends with the person you're
dating.
No, you made your choice.
Yeah.
Okay, well, we can share.
That makes sense.
We are on a date.
Yeah.
Is that the official rule of dating?
Tao, can you come help us carry the glasses?
Sharing drinks?
Yeah.
Yeah.
( grunts )
We should go on a date, just us.
What are you doing?
I mean, if you want to.
What do you mean?
You're clearly trying to set something up between me and Tao. Okay.

We thought if we could hint to him that you'd make a good couple... Thanks.

But I didn't ask you to do that. cashier: Cheers.

But you like him, so... Nick: Here we are.

I don't want him to know that. Just because you two came out, doesn't Is this some sort of "no boys allowed" conversation?
mean I also want to share all my secrets.
Did you know this too?
Friendship is more important. If he knew, things would change, and
I've had to deal with enough changes in my life lately. The me and Tao thing.

I don't want anything else to change. Um...

Yeah. Sharing stuff like that changes everything. Yeah.

Not always for the better. So this whole thing was just a setup?

Bubblegum's more interesting. It's more interesting. We thought it would be fun to go on a triple date.

Not interrupting anything, am I? A triple date?

Um, what? Yeah. You and Tao, Tara and Darcy, and...

No, we were just chatting. You and Charlie?

Okay then. Yeah.

( blender whirring ) You two are together?

You take those back, I'll wait for the last two. Yeah.

Are you sure? ( gasps ) Charlie! I'm so happy for you.

Tao: Yeah. I mean, I'm happy for you too, but you didn't have to witness all the
months of intense pining...
Charlie: Elle! Miss Hyder: It went well last time, but we'll do it better today, aren't
we?
Do Tao and Isaac know?
Come on, put your foot under.
I think Isaac guessed, like, almost immediately after we got together.
( both chuckle )
And what about Tao?
Take it. And that one.
Not yet.
Nick: Okay. ( clears throat )
I'm going to tell him. I need to find the right time.
And then, um...
But he's the only one who doesn't know.
I'm glad you came.
Tao: Um...
It seemed like you didn't want me to.
Just so you know, the concert's starting in 15 minutes.
No, I did. I just...
all: Oh!
I thought you were trying not to be rude.
( indistinct conversation )
No.
I really love you.
I just...
Aw, I love you too.
I like being with you.
( indistinct chatter )
Also, we've been hanging out a lot and...
Tara, Darcy, hurry up, you're late. Sit down, chop chop. Thank you.
If people guessed we were together, if they started saying stuff about
( laughter ) you then...

Uh, can I have less chatting, more tuning, please? Thank you. Well, I really don't want you to have to deal with that.

girl: Don't look at her, you'll catch the lesbian disease. I, um...

( giggling ) I've been researching about being bisexual.


Uh... Do you regret it?

I think that might be me. No. ( hesitating ) I just wasn't prepared for things to change.

But I... I'm not sure. I didn't... I didn't think so many people would suddenly think I'm a
completely different person.
Has anyone seen Tara and Darcy?
They don't think that.
I'm about to open the doors for the audience.
They do.
I just want some peace and quiet.
It's different for me. You came out years ago.
The door!
I'm not loud and confident about being a lesbian.
( handle jiggles )
I could barely say the word lesbian when we started going out, and
( Darcy groans ) now I've got people on my Instagram, like, "Oh, my God, you're a
lesbian."
Oh, no.
People giving me funny looks in the corridors.
No signal.
I wasn't prepared for any of it.
Can't believe this is the second time we've been locked inside here.
I don't know how to behave anymore and...
Sorry.
I just want to live my life.
It's fine.
You're so confident about your sexuality, and I still feel like I know
Didn't want to do the concert thing anyway. nothing.

Talk to me. Hey, I don't know anything either.

Everything's changed. I don't know anything about anything.

Since we came out? I just want to live my life.

Yeah. Darcy: We can do that.


You seem gay enough to me. Tara: Thanks, "boy I kissed one time."

Shut up. ( laughing ) No problem, "girl I kissed one time."

I think it will get easier. You going to be okay?

Yeah. Yeah. I'll be okay.

I know. You?

Nick: Tara! Yeah.

Charlie: Tara! ( instruments tuning )

Tara? ( upbeat music playing )

Nick: Tara! ( music continues )

Homophobia.

We're in here, we got locked in!

Darcy!

Tara!

Tara!

Tara and Darcy: We're in here! In here!

Hey.

You guys are supposed to be on stage, like, right now.

Hurry up!

Tao: You know I can't run, it's not my fault!
