[exhales deeply]

MEET ME AT 12:00 AT THIS ADDRESS

OR YOU KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN

I TOLD YOU, I'M AT SCHOOL. I CAN'T!

[breathing shakily]

12:00 SHARP OR THE VIDEO WILL GO LIVE FOR EVERYONE TO SEE

[exhales deeply]

[music fades out]

[school bell rings]

[ringing fades out]

Okay.

[suspenseful music playing]

What?!

[music intensifies]

No. No. No! No!

Shit. Shit!

-[music intensifies] -[gasps]

[Ms. Abeer] Stop right there!

-[music abates] -[Sarah panting]

[music gradually fading out]

[clock ticking rapidly]

Will you tell my parents?

Are you going to tell me the truth?

Where were you going?

Sarah?

What is it?

-[sniffs] -Tell me.

Maybe I can help you.

No one can help me now.

[sniffs] I've done something really bad.

-[exhales] -[breathes shakily]

I'm sure that whatever it might be,

we can deal with it.

[sighs]

No, we can't.

[sniffs]

It's too late for that.

[tense music fades in]

[ticking fades out]

Zero minus two to the power of two plus three.

What's between parentheses gets priority.

So seven is equal to A.

And here, we have to multiply, plus three.

Seven equal to four A...

[quietly] Shams.

[teacher] ...plus three.

Then we subtract this from this, and we get four.

Equal to four A...

divided by four...

-A equal to one. -[music ends]

-[school bell rings] -So, girls, that's all for today.

Thank you.

-[Rand] Hiba? -[Hiba] Did you tell her anything?

[Rand] I still haven't signed in.

-It's okay. Tell her. -Hiba, what is up with you?

Tell me why you're acting so weird with me?

Oh yeah? I've been acting weird, have I?

-Is that a joke? -Hiba!

Stop with your bullshit.

At breaktime, you didn't sit with me, and you haven't said a word to me all day.

And this weekend, you gave me attitude. Don't say that I'm imagining it!

-Uh-huh. -[solemn drumbeat]

Ah... so, when you act that way with me, it's okay,

but I'm not allowed to do that?

And, actually, I'm the one who's sick of your shit.

And the wannabe you drag around with you.

[scoffs] Oh, and speaking of that lame friend,

did you know that she snuck out without you today?

-Under the fence. -Sh!

[quietly] Who told you about that?

Let's go for our break, girls.

-I need some air. -[sombre cymbal crash]

-[drumbeat stops] -[Hiba] Mmm!

You guys know that you still have to come to rehearsal today, right?

Tasneem, when did you sneak out of school?

Was that the same day you said you were going to get sponsors for our project?

Seriously?

I lied to the teacher.

Tasneem, how could you do that?

[solemn music playing]

[muted pop music playing]

Shams, why are you being like this?

[music stops]

It's not my fault what happened with Tasneem.

You're treating me like I was the one who was to blame.

I was the one standing up for you!

I'm going.

Shams. Don't be like this.

Nadeen, enough.

You don't need to fake it, okay?

You don't need to pretend to be my friend any more.

You got your wish now.

What do you mean?

Omar.

Really, Shams?

Is that really what you think?

When Omar asked you, you distanced yourself right away.

You basically... stabbed me in the back.

Why was that?

You don't want him to think that we're alike.

I really thought we were partners.

Shams... of course we're partners.

Nothing's changed there.

It's just... I had nothing to do with that video!

I had no idea at all!

You know, Nadeen?

The truth is, the only friends I've ever had were users.

And it was mostly because they wanted to get close to Omar.

I thought you weren't like that.

[poignant music playing]

[ticking fades in]

[music stops]

[Ms. Abeer tuts softly]

[Sarah inhales deeply, sighs]

If I don't go to meet him, he'll post the video.

Message him!

[suspenseful music fading in]

Sorry?

You send him a message.

You just say to him that you couldn't sneak out of school on time.

-Uh... But... -Go on!

-Send the message, Sarah! -Okay. Uh...

[grunts]

[ticking fading out]

I COULDN'T SNEAK OUT ON TIME

I NEED ANOTHER HOUR

I'LL BE THERE AT 1:00. PROMISE

[telephone keypad beeping]

[call ringing]

Hello?

Is that the Cybercrimes Unit?

I want to speak to Detective Ahmad Sharkawi.

-No! Ms. Abeer, please don't do that! -Sh! Sh.

Yes, I'm here.

Detective Ahmad?

[becoming indistinct] Hello there. I'm Abeer Emad.

Um, I'm very sorry to disturb you, but, I, um...

I need your help with one of our students.

...five, six, seven, eight.

[clicking fingers] One, two, three, four, five six, seven, eight.

Two, two, three, four, five six, seven, eight.

Three, two, th...

-Hiba, why did you stop? Carry on. -[scoffs]

Are you actually joking, Tasneem? [scoffs]

I've done my moves. It's Sarah's turn now.

And where is she anyway?

Shouldn't we all be rehearsing, Tasneem? [tuts] Pff.

I am not gonna do that idiot's moves for her as well.

[chuckles] Or maybe I should? [indistinct dialogue]

-Hopefully, she doesn't turn up. -[Rand] Where did she learn to dance?

[Hiba] Have you seen the way she does this move?

SARAH, WHERE ARE YOU?! WE'RE ALL AT REHEARSAL WAITING FOR YOU!

[dramatic music playing]

[indistinct laughing]

[indistinct dialogue]

-[music fading out] -[Sarah sighs]

And are you sure they won't talk to my parents?

Don't worry.

I know the detective well.

I explained the situation,

you can rest assured... this man won't be bothering you any more.

I just feel so stupid. [sighs]

I'm so tired... so very tired...

of watching every one of you making fools out of yourselves

on these phones.

And on top of that, you're putting yourselves in danger.

[inhales deeply, sighs]

From now on,

you have to focus on your studies

and on taking care of yourself!

[crossly] Understood?

[suspenseful music playing]

[girl] So what did you think? Did you like it?

Yeah, it was great!

[girl] Yeah.

And where do you think you've been all morning?

I've sent you a million me...

Just leave it... Tasneem.

Oh, why didn't you just... Because you can go to hell!

And that goes for all you lot.

[poignant music playing]

HOW DID YOU GET MY NUMBER?

IF YOU DON'T MEET ME I'll MAKE YOUR VIDEO PUBLIC

[knocking at door]

Sarah, Mum's gone out. She said there's dinner in the fridge if you're hungry.

Jawad!

You wanna play a video game?

What, honestly?

Yeah! I'll go and set up the old PlayStation now.

[phone buzzes]

Sarah, you left your phone here! It's ringing.

[music intensifies]

[Sarah] Come on, Jawad! I've got it set up!

[phone pinging]

[music abruptly fades out]

[sighs]

[phone beeps]

[tense electronic music fading in]

[sighs softly]

[music intensifies]

[door opens]

-[Mum] Tasneem? -[music abates]

Would you care to explain this video that I've just received?

-What video? What do you mean? -Oh, you're sneaking out of school, I see.

That you messed up during the elections, that wasn't bad enough for you?

And who's that girl you've been hanging around with?

What kind of girl does that?

-We only did it just that one time. -How many times do I have to tell you?

If you want to be taken seriously and be respected,

you have to work hard on yourself.

You have to show everyone

that you're not just a pretty face, Tasneem.

And that your smart, successful, and hard-working as well.

Full package.

The full package!

I know.

I've heard it all before, Mum.

You know, do you?

Well, there are so many girls who would give their lives to be like you.

And what do you do?

You don't appreciate it.

And you keep messing things up and fooling around.

You should be ashamed.

[door slams]

[music becomes chaotic]

[retching, coughing]

[indistinct shouting]

-[busy signal] -[music fades out]

[player 1] C'mon! Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep! Move it, quick, quick! C'mon, move it!

-What are you watching there? -It's nothing.

What do you mean? That looks like something juicy, yeah?

-Let's have a look. -No.

-[players shouting] -[tense music fades in]

-Hey! Give me back my phone! -Dude! Who sent you this?

I didn't know you were into this kind of thing.

No, I'm not into that. Just give me back my phone.

Wait a minute!

Isn't that the AlRawabi uniform?

That's the school your sister goes to, right?

Hang on, is that your sister?

Look, you don't know the whole story, Rami.

[laughing] Mate, what is there to know?

Rami, just listen.

There is this total asshole who's blackmailing her,

and I'm trying to find out who the guy is. Please, don't tell anyone.

-Yeah, no worries. -Thank you.

Okay, see you later, then.

[music intensifies]

JAWAD'S HOT SIS YOU'RE WELCOME

[phone beeps]

-[Issam] Oh God, no! -[boy 1] Hey, which one?

[boy 2 laughing]

[boy 3] Wait, just do it to his face!

[overlapping dialogue]

-[Issam giggling] -[boy 1] Oh shit!

-[boy 2] Huh? -What?!

Let's have a look.

-Oh! Wow, mate. That girl is so hot. -[Issam] She's well fit.

You should try and pull her! Hey, what the hell, Rami?

-You're crazy! -[Issam] What's this video?

-Trying to get me in trouble? -[boy 2] You're the best! [laughs]

[Rami] Yeah?

[indistinct chatter]

-[boy 2] Shall we have some fun? -There he is.

[boy 2] Let's get 'im.

Heh, hey, hey! What's the rush? Where do you think you're going, eh?

-[boy 3] Let's go again. -Slow down! What's wrong?

What do you want now, Issam?

What do I want? You forget about us when we're classmates?

Give it a rest. It's always the same shit.

"The same old shit," is it? It seems like he hasn't heard the latest news.

-Shall I show him? -Yeah, show him. You ready?

[Issam moans]

No wonder your sister did that when her brother is such a little sissy.

-And a real bullshitter. -Delete the video.

Well, I can delete the video, don't worry about that.

But it's already all over TikTok.

Guys, if you missed it, you know where to find that video, yeah?

-[boys laughing] -Delete the video!

You think you can touch me? You'll be sorry! Don't you touch me!

-Hold him still for me! -[boy 3] Ooo!

-[boy 2] Hold him! Hold him down! -[Issam] He's still trying to fight me!

-[boy 3] Put your hands down! -[Issam] He's in for it.

I'm gonna draw something that I swear you won't forget.

[unnerving music plays]

-Stop moving! Hands down! Hold still! -[Jawad grunting]

-That's it. -[boy 2] Right up there. Ah!

-[boy 3] Yeah, nice one. -[boy 1] The other side as well.

-Get the other side. -[Issam] Stop moving!

-Stop, hold still! -[boys laughing]

-[Issam] Hey, hold... Keep... Hold still! -[boy 2] Yeah, a horn! [laughing]

[bullies giggling]

-[boy 2] Laters, mate. -[boy 1] Look at him!

[bullies laughing]

-[Issam] Look at them horns! [guffaws] -[hysterical laughter]

[boy 2] Look at that.

Hey, mate, those horns suit you, you should polish 'em.

[bullies laugh hysterically]

[panting shakily]

Isn't that Sarah?

-[indistinct chatter] -[phone beeps]

-[gasps] -[Hiba chuckles]

-[phones pinging] -[Rand] Oh my God.

-[phone beeps] -You've got some nerve!

-Bitch! -What a cheap lowlife!

-It's disgusting -[Sarah] What did you say?

-You're so disgusting. [scoffs] -[tense music playing]

[girls muttering]

-What a hussy. -She... She is.

[girl 1] Dirty bitch! [laughs]

[girl 2] Ugh! It's just porn.

[chatter continues indistinctly]

[gasps]

[girl 3 quietly] That's not her.

Yeah, that's Sarah.

[gasps] Oh no!

Here she is.

[indistinct chatter]

[girl 4] She's so gross.

Tasneem?

[girl 5] Disgusting.

-What is going on? -[girl 6 gasps] That's not her!

Sarah, what have you been doing?

-[girl 6] Have you seen it? -What do you mean?

That!

[girl 7 quietly] Oh my God. There she is. Shouldn't they really expel her?

-[gasps softly] -[girl 7] Gross.

[gasps]

-[girl 8] A disaster. -[girl 9] Look at her! She's so dirty!

[girls muttering]

[girl laughs]

[Sarah gasps]

[Hiba] So, then,

here's the loser who you've been pushing on us

and forcing us to hang around with.

[music fades out]

[Tasneem] I didn't know about this.

[Hiba] I knew it.

You are scum.

[suspenseful music playing]

Did you really have to do that dirty shit wearing our school uniform as well?

Why drag us down?

You've ruined all our reputations.

You're disgusting!

Now everyone's going to think that all AlRawabi girls are just like you.

-You're a hussy. -[girl 10] What an idiot!

-[girl 11] Leave our school. -[Leen] Get out of here!

You are real scum.

-[echoing] Get out of here, will you? -Get out of our school.

-[girl 12] Can't believe it. -[Rand] I thought we were friends.

[Leen] Get lost!

[high-pitched tone fading in]

[Leen] Disgusting little... Get out of our school!

-[tone intensifies] -[voices echoing]

[girl 11] Get out of our school!

-[tone intensifies] -[dialogue becomes muffled]

YOU ARE FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS

-[girl] Have we come to this? -[boy 1] So disgusting!

-She should be ashamed. -[boy 2] Is there no man in your family?

[music ends]

[teacher] Now, our second concept

is that of the circular sector and the circular segment.

-The circular sector... -[Issam sniggers]

...circular segment concept says that...

Sissy!

...the circular sector is a region that's enclosed between a radius,

another radius, and an arc.

That's the circular sector.

A circular segment, on the other hand,

is a region that's enclosed between a chord.

The third concept, is that of the angle...

Everyone, what is an angle?

An angle is formed when two lines already meet at a common point...

-[ticking accelerates] -[paper scratching frantically]

[scratching intensifies]

[school bell rings]

[hammering at door]

-Get out of here! You're despicable! -You disgusting girl!

-[Marwa] Get out, now! -[girl 1] Get out!

You better not show your face in this school ever again!

-You're disgusting! -[overlapping dialogue]

-[Marwa] You're a disgrace! -[girl 1] Out!

[Marwa] Get out! Get out of here. Right now!

-[overlapping shouting] -You are out!

-Just leave now! -Stop it!

[Marwa] Come out!

-[Ms. Abeer] Stop! That's enough! -[girl 2] Get out!

You should all be ashamed of your behaviour!

If anyone should feel shame here, it is her. We shouldn't.

Get out. All of you can get out.

Get back to class immediately.

She wore our uniform to do that.

Now, everyone is going to think that we're vulgar and immoral, just like her.

She has to be expelled!

I said, get back to the classroom.

Now!

Hurry up, then!

[door shuts]

[gentle tapping at door]

[poignant music playing]

[gently] Sarah, open the door.

There's no one else here.

They've all gone.

Yeah, she wasn't expecting...

[music intensifies]

[music fades out]

[player] Right, look at your men! Look at your men! Oi, watch the...

[spectators cheering, applauding]

[whistle blows]

Hey, come here. Look at this!

-I think it's Ali's girlfriend. Isn't it? -[boy 1] Oh my...

[boy 2] Look at it.

-[boy 3] Check this out! -Whoa! That's hot!

-[unintelligible chatter] -Hey, Ali!

-[boy 2] Have a look at this, Ali. -Isn't this your girlfriend?

-Don't listen to him. -Hani, why don't you give it a rest?

-There's no need to push him. -That's your girlfriend, mate.

[Omar clears throat]

-[boy 1] I can't, I can't, I can't... -[boy 2 laughing]

-Yeah, well, it could be... -Hey, hey, hey, hey!

-[boy 3] What? -She's not my girlfriend.

Just 'cause I go out with a girl a few times,

doesn't mean that she's my girlfriend.

I was just having a bit of fun with her, that's all.

-I'm serious. Look, you can... -Nice one, mate!

-[Emad] Player, player. -Wow... What?

-Player! Ali, I'm proud of you, mate! -[tense music playing]

-A good one, yeah? -[boy 2] Becomin' a man.

[indistinguishable chatter]

Ali, you're the man!

-You the player, aren't you? Yeah. -[boy 1] Real talk.

Gave her one, yeah?

[Ibrahim] It's all your fault! Don't even try to justify yourself!

This is all on you!

You just let her do what she wants,

spend hours on that mobile and social media,

and hang around with God knows what kind of friends she keeps!

[Mum] So now it's all my fault?

Aren't you her father?! Aren't you responsible for her as well?

[Ibrahim] I leave you to be responsible for the kids because I'm out all day

working my backside off!

-You're the one to blame. -[loud thud]

[Mum] Why does it matter so much who's to blame?

We need to deal with your daughter's problem here!

[Ibrahim] "Problem"? This is a scandal, not a problem!

-[music becomes poignant] -You had better tell me right now!

How did everyone get to see that video?

Are there any others?

Will there be other scandals?

[whimpers]

[Mum] I'm talking to you!

Answer me!

[school bell rings]

[music becomes dramatic]

[teacher speaking indistinctly]

What were some examples of phrasal modifiers...

[music drowns out teacher]

[school bell rings]

[music fades out]

Was it you who did it?

What did I do?

I saw you with Sarah's mobile at the party.

-Did you post the video online? -[scoffs]

Nah.

Listen, Shams. I've had enough of your lies.

Look, Nadeen. I didn't do it.

Honestly... I thought you were different.

And Omar had nothing to do with it.

But it looks like he was right to warn me about you.

I can't believe you're capable of doing something so nasty.

[footsteps retreating]

Have you talked to Sarah?

No.

But how could you not talk to her?

No, Farah. Why would I want to speak to her?

I don't want people to think I'm like her.

[melancholy music playing]

You know what, Tasneem?

I can't believe I'm saying this, but...

I think it's time you know that you're not the centre of the globe.

Life doesn't revolve around you.

There are other people in this world.

It's like you treat me like I'm a complete moron who's never grown up.

When have you invited me to anything?

I can't believe that you've not once asked, Tasneem, how I feel.

And I try to act as if it doesn't affect me.

So I keep it all hidden.

But that doesn't mean the way you act doesn't hurt me.

It does hurt me really badly.

What happened to Sarah is heartbreaking.

Oh, but then when you could be there for her, when she needs it,

what are you doing?

Just worrying about yourself and what other people are going to think.

But this time...

I'm the one who doesn't want to be your friend.

I don't... want a selfish friend like that.

OMAR, I NEED TO SEE YOU

CAN YOU MEET ME IN HALF AN HOUR???

[music fading out]

[ambient music playing from café]

So,

it must be my lucky day.

To what do I owe the pleasure of us meeting?

I need to ask you something.

-You know what you said about Shams? -Oh, it's about Shams.

-I thought you wanted to see me. -Omar, shut it.

Besides, you have a girlfriend. You should act like it.

Come on, Nadine, I was just joking. Where's your sense of humour?

Okay!

What's Shams been up to?

Well, I'm not sure that she did do anything much, but...

-I'm sure you saw that video of Sarah. -Mmm?

Could Shams have done that?

Could she have posted that video?

But why would she do that?

Did she fall out with Sarah?

No, she didn't.

I dunno.

Truthfully...

Shams is really nice, and she has a good heart, she does.

She also has a history with that kind of thing, so, uh...

I really don't know what to say to you.

[soft piano music playing]

-Is she going to be long? -She's on her way.

Mm-hmm.

-[Tasneem sighs] -Oh. Here she is. Sorry.

[piano stops]

So where do you think you're going?

Outside.

-I'm stressed. I need a break. -Tasneem, you have piano.

-I cancelled it. Why is she even here? -Well, I uncancelled the lesson.

Besides...

a break's not what you need now.

Tasneem, you need to focus on your studies.

That's what you need. Not a break.

For your information, Mum, I've had enough of "focusing on my studies."

It never ends.

I'm tired of being "the perfect girl" all the time!

[sad music playing]

And you know what?

I'll never be perfect.

Leave me alone, and stop your nagging! Ugh!

[footsteps stop]

-Hi. -[music stops]

Listen, Tasneem.

If you're here about Omar, I swear, it's not what you're thinking.

What about Omar?

Um... 'cause we went out.

Is that not why you're here?

["Liya Snin" by Ÿuma playing]

I didn't have anywhere else to go.

Okay, come in.

[sobbing]

Thank you.

Tasneem, it's gonna be okay.

So don't worry.

It will.

-It's confusing, kind of... -Mm-hmm?

Out of all the people you could tell, why did you decide to choose me?

Why didn't you go to Hiba?

Um... well...

[scoffs softly] Look...

I know that I'm three years late in apologising.

But I am really sorry.

I know that I've been quite nasty.

You've been "quite" nasty?

Right.

Maybe I've been very nasty. [chuckles]

[sighs]

Have you tried to talk to Sarah about what happened?

I was gonna ask you about that.

Honestly, I've been a nasty friend to her as well.

[music continues]

[music intensifies]

[music fades out]

What? Shams?

Listen, Nadeen.

I had nothing to do with Sarah's video.

You have to believe me.

Yeah, I'm still working on the film.

But I never shared that video.

You're still working on that film? After what's gone on?

Will you let me speak? I've been thinking about everything you said...

[Tasneem] Nadeen?

What are you doing? Who's...

Oh, it's you!

So... you two are friends again?

Shams, it's not what you think.

Well, goodbye, then.

Shams, wait there... [sighs softly]

[poignant music playing]

[Tasneem scoffs] What's with all the drama?

Do you always have to be such a bitch?

[girl laughing] Thanks, guys!

-[Nadeen] We have to try and do something. -I dunno what to do.

I don't have the number of anyone at all in her family.

[Nadeen] We have to make sure she's okay.

I dunno. Maybe we can try and go to her house and see her.

[Nadeen] Yeah, let's go to her house after school.

-Yeah, but I felt so much better... -[Tasneem] Yeah, we can just go together.

I don't mind.

Yeah, I think it was one of those 24-hour...

[girl softly] Here she is.

[gasps softly]

[overlapping chatter]

What's she doing here?

I can't believe she came back to school. Disgusting!

Hi, Sarah! How are you?

Okay.

We tried to call you, but your phone was switched off all the time.

Um... I know.

It was.

[chatter in background]

What?

[school bell rings]

I'll see you at rehearsal.

[Ms. Abeer] Girls, take your seats, please.

You can all hand in your homework to me after class.

["3AIB" by Big Hass fading in]

-That's right. -Right... mmm, four, five.

[Tasneem] That's good.

[scoffs] Hey, hey, hey, hey!

What are you doing here?

Do you really think you can be in our show after the mess you've made?

-Hiba, stop it. That's enough. -Tasneem!

I said to you to get out.

-We don't want you in our show. -That's right. We don't want you here.

It's not your decision! It's not your call, Hiba.

Hmm, says who?

-Hold it, you're not in charge here, Hiba. -[scoffs]

We're all in charge here.

Fine, then!

Well, these five girls... all agree with me, you know.

Either she leaves or we leave!

I'll go. It's okay.

Sarah, wait!

[Hiba] Let's check all the options again.

Uh-huh. Okay. Yes, she's here with me now...

My phone hasn't stopped ringing since last week.

The parents... or journalists... It never ends!

And the school board, they're all up in arms about this!

I've no idea what to say to them!

God help her.

I mean, why did she have to shoot that video with her school uniform on?

What are they up in arms about, Sharif?

That an underage student of ours has been exploited while she's still a child?

Or that she was wearing our precious school uniform when it happened?

-The uniform is all that matters? -[sighs]

Farida,

you know how these kinds of stories spread.

And this will harm the school's reputation.

So, in your opinion, we should expel the girl?

Or why not just drag the poor thing outside and throw stones at her

so that she really does learn her lesson?

[door slams]

[poignant tune playing]

Sorry.

Your door was open. I wasn't trying to scare you.

It's okay.

Mum wants the door to be kept open all the time.

So that she can keep an eye on me and watch what I'm doing. [scoffs]

[suspenseful music playing]

[inhales shakily]

Jawad, is there something wrong?

Sarah, I have to tell you something.

I'm the one...

I'm the one who shared the video.

What?

I swear, I... I... didn't mean to.

It wasn't supposed to get shared.

I'm so sorry. It was an accident. I should have...

[music intensifies]

[police radio] All units. All units.

["Dhalem (Tyrant)" by Emel Mathlouthi playing]

It's strange how far people are willing to go.

-And what they're willing to risk. -[siren wailing]

Just to be liked by others.

Or so that... they fit in.

-[police radio] Copy that. Copy that. -[siren intensifies]

[officer] Mr. Ibrahim.

Your son stabbed another boy at school with an object.

We need you to come to the police station.

[music intensifies]

Don't be scared! I'll be right there with you!

[Shams] One minute, you're at the top,

and you can see the world from above,

and then the next...

it can all vanish.

-[girl] Bitch! -[Lana] What a cheap tramp!

[Shams] We hide behind our screens to create a better life for ourselves.

Or the life we dream about actually living.

A fake life that doesn't exist.

But, in reality,

everyone is going through something.

And everyone has something to lose.

[music intensifies]

Maybe it was Sarah's secret that came out now.

And she's being judged for what she did.

[whimpers]

And everyone is trying to keep their secret hidden.

But if their secret gets out...

their turn will come.

They're next.

[music intensifies]
