00:00Hey, Ava Darling.
00:15Declan, what are you doing?
00:17That's a beautiful name.
00:18Ava Darling.
00:21Makes sense, I guess.
00:24Beautiful name for a beautiful girl.
00:27Right. Did you, like, hit your head or something, Declan?
00:31You do know how beautiful you are, don't you?
00:41You are so not good at that.
00:44What?
00:45Is that, like, your first kiss or something?
00:48Got him.
00:49Oh, my God.
00:51I can't believe she thought a guy would actually be interested in her.
00:55There's a reason you're a virgin, loser.
01:14You guys really need to find new shit to laugh about.
01:17Hunter, what the fuck?
01:21You good?
01:22Enough, everyone.
01:27Let's get to class.
01:29Go learn something.
01:33Hunter.
01:34Just a man I wanted to see.
01:36Oh, practice ran late.
01:46I didn't have time to study.
01:48Life lasts longer than the duration of a soccer season.
01:52You need to start thinking about your future.
01:55And you deserve a future, Hunter.
01:57I know you're better than this.
02:00One more F, and you're off the team.
02:02And finally, please remember, there are Narcon injectors available at the front office.
02:10Stay safe and study hard.
02:12Don't you know it's not enough to be smart anymore?
02:15You're going to have to be willing to play dirty, too.
02:18Is that why you keep cheating your way to valedictorian?
02:20Just because you're the frontrunner now, doesn't mean you won't have a little accident before the school year's out.
02:28You know, it was so easy to get you alone with my cousin this morning.
02:35You know, he's not afraid to beat up a girl.
02:38You should keep that in mind.
02:39You should keep that in mind.
03:09Ava, can I talk to you?
03:14It's Hunter.
03:16I promise you're safe.
03:17Why do you carry around travel-sized lotion-infused tissues?
03:37So I can help damsels in distress like you?
03:45No, I'm kidding.
03:46My little sister gets nosebleeds, so I just keep them with me.
03:50Look, I wanted to ask you if you'd ever consider starting a study group with me.
03:57Like, I think we could be a good team and you could call it, I don't know, payback for helping you out earlier?
04:03Thanks, but no thanks.
04:06I can take care of myself.
04:08Really?
04:09You know, I heard what Jessica was saying to you out there.
04:15I could, um, I could offer you protection.
04:20For a couple of those days, you're always getting it.
04:23And how would you protect me?
04:25I think Jessica and Declan would, you know, stop bothering you if they thought you were my girlfriend.
04:35But aren't you and, um, Jessica...
04:38Fuck you.
04:39No, not anymore.
04:40Right, but why not just friends?
04:45Because Jessica and Declan think guys and girls can't, you know, just be friends.
04:52So, you want to be my fake boyfriend for protection in exchange for me giving you all the answers to everything?
05:01Yeah, yeah, pretty much.
05:04I mean, I think it sounds like a good idea.
05:06Would you ever be, I don't know, interested in something like that?
05:10You're such a man whore.
05:15You know what, Hunter?
05:16Why don't you take your offer and shove it up your ass?
05:19You know, Hunter, why don't you take your offer and shove it up your ass?
05:40You rain.
05:50There he is.
05:55You're my best salesman.
05:56I didn't come here to watch you grope your jailbait girlfriend.
06:10Fuck off, Hunter.
06:11Hey, Drew, you want me to show this kid his place?
06:20That fucking mouth of yours.
06:23I pay all your bills, and you give me shit?
06:26You could stand to be a bit more grateful, you know?
06:30You're the one who came to me with that pathetic sob story about your little sister.
06:35Please, Mr. Carter, you don't understand.
06:37She's sick.
06:38I need the money.
06:41Little bitch.
06:42I'd kick your disrespectful ass if my business partner was so pleased with your numbers.
06:47Remember that.
06:49Speaking of, we're throwing a party here this weekend.
06:54So invite all your little high school friends.
06:56I want a big crowd.
06:59I got a new shipment of pills coming in, and I need my best salesman to be there to push them.
07:05Am I clear?
07:08Mm-hmm.
07:09You told Hunter Black to do what?
07:24Ava, you need to go back to him, apologize, and accept the deal.
07:28Why would I do that?
07:29Because if Jessica can't mess with you outside of the classroom, that means she'll have to beat you for valedictorian the old-fashioned way.
07:35And we all know that'll never happen.
07:38You gotta stop with those.
07:44Lauren Cabot overdosed on those last year.
07:47Because she was partying, cutting it with other drugs.
07:50You don't see me doing that, do you?
07:51I still think there's a better way to focus.
07:55And I still think you should take Hunter up on his offer.
07:58If you hurry, you could catch him after soccer practice.
08:01You know what?
08:03It's a great idea.
08:06Hunter's coach should know that he's been trying to cheat.
08:08Hunter's coach should know that he's been trying to cheat.
08:38Hunter's coach should know that he's been trying to cheat.
08:50Hey.
08:52Have you changed your mind yet?
08:56No, I have not.
08:59Oh, what is that?
09:01Is that Greece?
09:03It is Greece, from the robotics lab.
09:05It's where I just was.
09:07Oh, okay.
09:08Ava, I get it, all right? Academics, that's your thing. Just like soccer is mine.
09:12And you know, normally I wouldn't ask you to help me cheat on anything, but this is temporary.
09:16I just gotta, gotta get through soccer season into spring semester with my scholarship intact so I can graduate.
09:22Spring semester? Too late for Jessica to catch up with me.
09:30For valedictorian.
09:31Yeah, I know, Ava.
09:33If we're gonna be in a fake relationship, we have to discuss parameters, set up some ground rules.
09:42Deal. Shall we seal it with a kiss?
09:45Rule number one, nothing physical.
09:48Well, come on, I'm...
09:50No, I mean it, Hunter. Our clothes are staying on.
09:52I can think of plenty of things we can do with our clothes too long.
09:58I mean, we have to at least kiss if we're gonna look like a real couple.
10:01Maybe even a few trips to the nurse's office.
10:05Fine. Which leads me to rule number two.
10:09No other hookups. If we're a couple, we're into each other and only each other.
10:14All right. Then rule number three, no catching feelings.
10:18I don't want you getting all lovey-dovey on me.
10:20No problem.
10:23And I think, you know, if you're gonna be my girlfriend, you gotta, you gotta look the part.
10:27What? You gonna give me a makeover or something?
10:34Something like that.
10:38Hey, Jessica. I heard your ex is now dating that pick-me-prude Ava.
10:44Like anyone would ever date Ava.
10:47Have you seen her?
10:49She dresses like a troll with a personality to match.
10:52Yeah. Total boner killer.
10:55Exactly.
10:57Damn, who's that?
10:58Is that Ava?
11:11Is that Ava?
11:28What? Are you doing charity work now?
11:54Nice jacket.
11:57It's his mom's.
11:59Shame to see such a great outfit go absolutely wasted.
12:04Even with the new clothes, you're still so painfully mid.
12:12Don't listen to him. You look gorgeous.
12:22You look gorgeous.
12:30At least when I win valedictorian, you'll be used to my sloppy seconds.
12:43Adorable. Now, if you will please excuse us.
12:49Hunter and I have some very important business to attend to.
12:52Drew needs us.
12:54Right, yeah.
12:56Business? Who's Drew?
12:59Um, just a soccer thing. I'll see you later for tutoring though, yeah?
13:03You're fucking lying to me?
13:16You're fucking lying to me!
13:18Okay, that's enough, man.
13:19No, we don't like doing this shit to you, man. We don't like it, okay? Just pay us the money.
13:24Yeah? You know who you work for?
13:26No, Drew Carter. You want to piss him off. I promise you.
13:29I heard he used a knife on the last kid. You hear that, Hunter?
13:31I did hear that. You want to try your luck with Drew?
13:33No, you don't. You got one week. You got one week, okay?
13:36That means get the fuck out!
13:50What's up, sweetly? You guys on the road yet?
13:59You think you left it on my bed?
14:03Okay, just um, just hang tight. I'll be there soon.
14:05Okay, yeah.
