Laverne and Shirley: 20 Years Later
Part 3
By Kimberly

7 INT: Fillmore High

 

Lenny and Squiggy arrive before Laverne and Shirley; they’re waiting in line for their name tags at the gym’s entrance.

Lenny is wearing black pants, a white long sleeved shirt; a black coat, with the cummerbund across his chest.

Squiggy is wearing a similar pair of pants and shirt as Lenny’s but has on a Leather jacket over his shirt.

They’re both wearing Converse shoes.

The gym’s entrance has balloons of the school colors bordering the entrance, you can hear faded music in the background; “Da do ron-ron-ron.”

 

LENNY

(Looks around at the people around him and then pokes Squiggy)

None of these people look familiar to me, Squig.

 

SQUIGGY

I think it’s the fact that we’re the only ones that haven’t aged.

 

A young blonde girl walks by, a current student at the high school that has forgotten a book after school hours; Squiggy eyes her and follows her.

 

SQUIGGY

Well where have you been all my life, my sweet lovable bundle of sweetness?

 

GIRL

(Makes a disgusted face and shrugs him off)

Probably not even born yet, EW.

(Walks off)

 

LENNY

(Laughs)

Just like old times, ‘eh Squig?

 

SQUIGGY

Yes, just like old times; all of them trying to play hard to get. I know I’ve always been a lady killer but never thought they’d play THAT hard to get me.

 

They finally reach the woman giving out the name tags; she’s a thin and attractive brunette.

 

LENNY

(Reads her nametag, it reads Ms. Sax hire)

Ms…Sex hour. Does that mean I get an hour to…?

(Bites palm and turns towards Squiggy)

 

SQUIGGY

(Slaps him upside the head and pushes him to the side, smiling at Ms. Sax hire)

You wouldn’t want him; I think you have a better chance for fun with me.

(Bites palm)

 

MS. SAX HIRE

Just tell me your names, please.

 

LENNY

Say did we go to school with you? You don’t look familiar.

 

MS. SAX HIRE

(Annoyed)

I’m a teacher at this school; I am not part of your class.

 

SQUIGGY

Why are you here then if you’re not part of our class?

 

MS. SAX HIRE

Because I volunteered for this and now I’m wishing I didn’t.

 

LENNY

Why did you want to volunteer?

 

MS. SAX HIRE

(Aggravated)

Look, just tell me your names so I can assist the rest of the people behind you?

 

SQUIGGY

But like Lenny said, don’t we get an hour?

(Bites palm and laughs obnoxiously with Lenny)

 

MS. SAX HIRE

The name is Ms. SAXHIRE, not SEXHOUR. Now will you two just tell me your names? Or better yet, why don’t you two just take these tags and put your names on them yourself.

(Hands them each a tag and a pen)

 

LENNY

Is there anywhere specifically we’re supposed to put these?

 

MS. SAX HIRE

(Slams hands down on table)

I give up!

 

SQUIGGY

(Watching her walk off and turns towards Lenny)

See, told you they play hard to get.
