Fade out to Will and Scout walking half-naked through the forest. I guess Bella really didn't want to drive them back to school. Good. More bad voice-overs. "That girl. I gotta get to know her," says Scout. He asks Will if they ever hooked up. "Please," Will says, and tells him that they've known each other forever. He says that he was too busy "lusting after the school nurse." "Hot, huh?" Will says not really, that she weighed close to three hundred pounds. "Scared of that." "Yeah, something about that uniform." Oooookay? Will tells Scout to share something dark from his past. Scout laughs and says that last summer he took his dad's '64 Jag out and sideswiped a tree and caught it on fire. He told his dad that it was stolen and he got it replaced with insurance money. Will says that when he was nine he and his friend were in his garage "reading porno mags and smoking butts" and they caught the garage on fire. Burned it to the ground. They didn't have insurance, and it never got replaced. "My dad broke my nose." Way to bum us out, Will. We know you're poor. Quit ruining the fun. They are still in their underwear, and since they are only shooting from the waist up, these boys look like they're naked, sharing stories in the forest. I keep waiting for J.D. and Veronica to show up with bags of mineral water and postcards of Joan Crawford. Scout says that last summer he had sex with his mother's best friend in St. Tropez. "Cool!" opines Will. Scout says that it's not really that cool, because the woman got pregnant and had his baby. No one knows. Will asks if Scout's serious. Scout nods and walks off. Will stops and realizes that he's going to have to top the getting-your-mom's-best-friend-pregnant-with-your-kid-when-you're-fourteen story and thinks that this will do it: "Scout. I cheated on the entrance exam. I bought it online." Now, first of all, that story doesn't even come close to comparing, but more importantly, Scout immediately busts out with, "Will, I was kidding. I thought you were kidding about the garage." Will tries to counter with the "No, I'm totally kidding, too. Ha. I'm funny, man. Cheating. Online? How? www.rawleyentrancetest.com? Right. Sure." He doesn't say that, but he does.
