JAMIE Hi Dwayne.

DWAYNE Oh. Hi Jamie.

JAMIE What have you been up to?

DWAYNE Oh. You know. Waiting for the bus.

JAMIE I mean besides that, silly.

DWAYNE Oh yeah. Right. Uh... Nothing. How about you?

JAMIE I tried a new cereal today. It has cornflakes and blueberries.

DWAYNE Wow.

JAMIE Yeah. Wow. It's sad that a new breakfast food is going to be the highlight of my day.

DWAYNE At least you had breakfast. I forgot.

JAMIE Did you ever imagine our lives would be this dull?

DWAYNE Well, maybe something fun will happen at school today.

JAMIE School? Fun?

They both laugh.

DWAYNE I know, I was just joking.

JAMIE You know, sometimes I miss elementary school. Remember in second grade? Every day, after lunch, you and I would play frisbee. We'd make believe it was a space ship.

DWAYNE No, you'd pretend it was a space ship, I'd pretend it was my Viking shield.

JAMIE Why don't we do stuff like that any more?

DWAYNE Because one day I tried to beat the world record frisbee throw and we never saw it again.

JAMIE I mean, why don't we ever -- I don't know -- your shoe's untied.

DWAYNE (Starting to tie his shoe.) Thanks. I guess this is what happens when you get to the 8th Grade (or whatever grade the actors are in). The world starts to become boring.

JAMIE Yep. We're growing up. No more recess. No more adventure.
