THEY BETTER GET HIM OUT OF THIS SCHOOL QUICK.

YEAH, REAL QUICK.

YEAH.

A GUY LIKE THAT COULD KILL US ALL.

I KNOW.

Snake: DID YOU DECIDE ON YOUR DRESS?

Michelle: NO, NOT YET.

ARE YOU GOING TO THE FORMAL?

I DOUBT IT.

IT'S MAINLY FOR SENIORS.

YEAH, BUT I'D STILL LIKE TO GO.

WE'LL GO NEXT YEAR.

HOW CAN YOU GUYS TALK ABOUT A FORMAL AT A TIME LIKE THIS?

IT'S JUST A SILLY LITTLE ELECTION.

Mr. Raditch: Attention, this is your vice-principal.

TRY AND BE DIGNIFIED.

I have the election results for student president.

The winner is... Lucy Fernandez.

( screams )

YEAH!

CONGRATULATIONS ON A HARD-FOUGHT

AND WELL-DESERVED VICTORY.

LISTEN, GUYS, LUNCH IS ON ME, OKAY?

HERE I COME.

GREAT.

THANKS, BRONCO.

YOU SEE...

Caitlin: HI, JOEY.

CAITLIN, HI.

HOW YOU DOING?

GREAT ABOUT LUCY, EH?

YEAH, YEAH, I VOTED FOR HER, TOO.

BYE.

BYE.

NO, YOU DIDN'T.

YOU NEVER VOTED.

SO, SHE DOESN'T HAVE TO KNOW THAT.

DO I DETECT SOMETHING STARTING UP WITH JOEY AGAIN?

OF COURSE NOT, DON'T BE SILLY.

WELL, YOU WERE PRETTY FRIENDLY AT THE TALENT SHOW.

MAYA, STOP IT, OKAY?

I DON'T NEED A MATCHMAKER.

SO... WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO ASK HER

TO THE DANCE?

GIVE ME TIME, GIVE ME TIME.

WE DON'T EXACTLY HAVE OODLES OF TIME.

TOMORROW'S THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL BEFORE EXAMS.

YEAH, I KNOW.

Man: Mr. Raditch, please meet with the building inspectors

in room 103, please.

Thank you.

WHICH ONE DO YOU THINK HAS AIDS?

I DON'T KNOW.

I HOPE THEY FIND OUT SOON.

THEY WILL.

CAN'T KEEP ANYTHING A SECRET AROUND HERE.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN

WHEN THEY FIND OUT?

Alison: I DON'T KNOW.

Snake: SELL THE CAR NOW, AND WE CAN CUT OUR LOSSES.

Joey: BUT I LOVE IT.

Snake: KEEP THE FUZZY DICE.

I GOT MATH AT LUNCH, SCIENCE THIS AFTERNOON

AND ENGLISH THIS EVENING

WHICH MEANS I PROBABLY WON'T GET ANY SLEEP...

WILL YOU RELAX?

YOU ALWAYS DO GREAT.

BECAUSE I ALWAYS STUDY.

STUDY A LITTLE LESS...

YOU SHOULD TRY HARDER.

I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU.

WE HAVE TO TALK.

NOW.

OKAY.

I'LL SEE YOU LATER.

YEAH, SURE.

SO, WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

I GUESS YOU HEARD THE RUMOR?

SOMEONE AT DEGRASSI HAS AIDS.

LOOK, I DIDN'T TELL ANYONE.

SOMEONE DID, AND NO ONE ELSE KNOWS.

COME ON, MAN, YOU MUST HAVE TOLD OTHER PEOPLE.

NO ONE... NOT EVEN MY PARENTS.

COME ON...

COME ON, MAN, I DIDN'T TELL ANYONE.

YOU GOT TO BELIEVE ME.

THEN WHO DID?

I DON'T KNOW.

LOOK, THEY DON'T KNOW IT'S YOU, RIGHT?

NO.

WELL, THEN IT'S PROBABLY JUST A RUMOR.

OR MAYBE IT'S SOMEONE ELSE.

IT'S A BIG SCHOOL.

I COME HERE EVERY DAY AND PEOPLE TREAT ME NORMAL.

IT'S ALL I'VE GOT.

LOOK, I DIDN'T TELL ANYONE.

Woman: Good afternoon, students.

As you know, exam time approaches.

Please be sure you have checked the schedule

for exam times and locations.

For example, all mathematics exams...

( bell rings )

THAT'S ALL FOR TODAY, GUYS.

SEE YOU TOMORROW.

HEY, GUYS.

HEY, TABS.

IF I FIND OUT WHO THAT GUY WITH AIDS IS

I'LL BASH HIM ONE.

I KNOW, HOW SICK--

GOING TO SCHOOL WITH SOMEONE THAT HAS AIDS.

THE GUY SHOULD BE KICKED OUT.

HOW DO YOU KNOW IT'S A GUY?

BECAUSE, JOANNE, IT IS CALLED THE GAY PLAGUE.

Tabs: YEAH, REALLY.

GUYS, WAKE UP.

IT IS NOT JUST A GAY PROBLEM.

AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT AIDS, JOANNA?

A LOT-- MY MOTHER WORKS WITH AIDS PATIENTS.

OOH, GIRL, STAY AWAY FROM ME.

YEAH, I WAS GOING TO KISS YOU, JOANNE, BUT I GUESS YOU'D LOSE.

NO, I WIN.

AND FOR YOUR INFORMATION

IT IS PRETTY TOUGH TO GET IT FROM KISSING.

YOU'D HAVE TO DRINK ABOUT SIX LITERS OF SALIVA TO GET IT.

Tabs: YOU'RE GROSS.

I DON'T CARE WHAT SHE SAYS.

PEOPLE WITH AIDS SHOULD BE LOCKED AWAY.

GET THEM AWAY FROM ME.

HOW DO YOU KNOW IT'S NOT ONE OF US?

OH, YEAH, RIGHT.

HOW DO YOU KNOW IT'S NOT ME?

COME ON, DWAYNE, YOU'RE WEIRD

BUT YOU'RE NOT A QUEER, MAN.

I'M SICK AND TIRED OF HEARING CRAP

FROM DUMB JERKS WHO KNOW NOTHING.

SHORTY, TAKE IT EASY.

YOU THINK YOU'RE SO SAFE.

SO DID I.

COME ON, DWAYNE.

YOU DON'T HAVE AIDS.

NOT YET, BUT I'M H.I.V. POSITIVE

AND I GOT IT FROM A CHICK.

HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT?

COME ON, THIS ISN'T FUNNY.

NO KIDDING.

IT'S THE TRUTH.

Boy: Hey, have you bought your tickets

for the Degrassi formal yet?

I know, I know, too busy studying.

Don't have a date?

Don't have the cash?

Hey, I've heard them all.

Alison: OH, MY GOD, LOOK.

Girl: HE'S THE ONE WITH AIDS.

Alison: I CAN'T BELIEVE

THEY ALLOW HIM IN HERE.

HEY, TAB.

DON'T.

I CAN'T GIVE IT TO YOU

BY TOUCHING.

JUST DON'T TOUCH ME.

TABI, THIS IS ME, SHORTY.

SINCE GRADE TWO, REMEMBER?

DWAYNE, PLEASE.

I JUST CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS.

I DON'T NEED THIS CRAP.

( slams locker )

( bell rings )

MISS PRESIDENT.

WHY, THANK YOU.

WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.

ALLOW ME TO HOLD OUT YOUR DESK.

GUYS, ENOUGH.

IT'S NOT EVERY DAY YOU BECOME PRESIDENT.

WELL DONE, LUCY.

THANKS, LIZA.

DICTATOR...

THAT'S WHAT I'M GOING TO BE.

SETTLE DOWN, EVERYONE.

PLEASE TAKE ONE OF THESE AND PASS THE REST ALONG.

THEY'RE TO GIVE TO YOUR PARENTS.

WHAT IS IT?

IT'S ALL IN THE LETTER.

YOU CAN DISCUSS IT WITH YOUR PARENTS.

COME ON, WHY CAN'T YOU TELL US?

WHAT'S THE BIG MYSTERY?

COME ON, SIR, IT'S THE LAST CLASS OF THE YEAR.

I'M AFRAID IT'S A NOTIFICATION THAT DEGRASSI WILL CLOSE IN JUNE

AND BE CLOSED THROUGHOUT THE NEXT YEAR.

( exclamations of shock and dismay )

Lucy: WHAT ABOUT US?

YOU'LL BE PLACED IN VARIOUS HIGH SCHOOLS.

BUT WHY DO WE ALL HAVE TO BE SPLIT UP?

THERE ISN'T ROOM IN ONE SCHOOL.

I DON'T WANT TO START ALL OVER AGAIN.

IT'S TYPICAL-- OUR SENIOR YEAR WRECKED.

PLEASE, EVERYONE.

I'M JUST AS SHOCKED AS YOU ARE

BUT THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO.

AND THIS IS OUR LAST CLASS.

THERE'S STILL LOTS TO REVIEW.

( commotion )

Girl: I'M GOING TO FAIL EVERYTHING.

THERE ARE SERIOUS STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS WITH THE BUILDING.

THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

OUR ENERGY EFFICIENCY...

WELL, YOU KNOW.

IT'S AN OVEN IN THE SUMMER, FREEZING IN THE WINTER.

WELL, THAT MUCH IS TRUE.

PUT THAT TOGETHER

AND YOU HAVE A BUILDING IN DESPERATE NEED OF RENOVATION.

SO THAT'S IT.

WE HAVE NO SAY.

THIS DOESN'T SEEM FAIR, SIR.

I KNOW.

I'M SORRY.

IF YOU KNEW THIS WAS COMING

WHY DID YOU HOLD THE ELECTIONS?

THE DECISION WAS ONLY MADE THIS MORNING.

I DON'T LIKE IT EITHER.

IF IT'S ANY CONSOLATION, I'M BEING REASSIGNED, TOO.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

I LIKE HER.

I WANT TO GO TO THE FORMAL WITH HER.

WE'LL END UP IN DIFFERENT SCHOOLS.

I MAY NEVER SEE HER AGAIN.

THERE SHE IS.

CAITLIN!

HI.

HI.

UM... I WAS WONDERING IF YOU HAD A DATE FOR THE FORMAL YET.

SEE YOU LATER.

WELL, YOU SEE, THE REASON WHY I'M ASKING IS...

WELL, SEEING AS THIS PLACE IS CLOSING DOWN

AND IT IS THE LAST DANCE...

SO...

WOULD YOU GO TO THE FORMAL WITH ME?

UM...

I... I DON'T REALLY KNOW.

UM...

LOOK, IT'S NO PROBLEM.

I UNDERSTAND.

OH, WELL... WAIT, I DIDN'T SAY NO

I JUST SAID... I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S DIFFERENT.

OKAY.

SURE.

YEAH, I'LL GO WITH YOU.

ALL RIGHT!

MY CAR KIND OF BIT THE BISCUIT.

MAYBE I COULD RENT A LIMO.

I COULD COME PICK YOU UP AT YOUR PLACE...

NO... NO.

WELL, WHY NOT?

I THINK IT'S BETTER IF WE JUST MEET HERE.

OKAY, WELL, WHERE DO YOU WANT TO MEET?

HERE.

OKAY, UM...

OKAY, WE'RE GOING TO THE DANCE.

GREAT.

WELL, I'LL SEE YOU HERE, THEN.

( laughing ): BYE.

OH, YES, YES!

( bell rings )

WELL, THAT'S IT.

CLASS DISMISSED, AND DON'T FORGET

TO GET THOSE LETTERS HOME TO YOUR PARENTS.

Nancy: I would like to thank everyone

for making this the best year...

I CAN'T BELIEVE DEGRASSI'S CLOSING.

I DON'T WANT TO GO TO A NEW SCHOOL AND START OVER.

JOANNE.

YEAH?

UM, HAVE YOU SEEN DWAYNE?

HE WAS HERE THIS MORNING.

NO, I DON'T THINK HE'S BEEN TO ANY OF HIS CLASSES TODAY.

I HEARD ABOUT HIM.

WOW.

IS IT TRUE?

I MEAN, THAT HE'S REALLY NOT DANGEROUS?

WHAT IF I SAT IN THE SAME CHAIR THAT HE JUST SAT IN?

COULD I CATCH IT OR SOMETHING?

AIDS GETS TRANSFERRED THROUGH BODILY FLUIDS

NOT THROUGH CHAIRS.

SO UNLESS YOU'VE BEEN SLEEPING WITH HIM...

YOU CAN TALK TO THEM.

YOU CAN SHAKE THEIR HAND.

HUG THEM.

THAT'S ALL SAFE.

I KNOW I SOUND LIKE A PAMPHLET

IT'S JUST I GET SO MAD

AT HOW PEOPLE LIKE YOU TREAT PEOPLE WITH AIDS.

Girl: IT'S A LOVELY NIGHT.

Boy: AH, IT'S A GORGEOUS NIGHT, ISN'T IT?

( music from dance in background )

BRONCO, COME ON.

HI, GUYS.

OOH-HOO, LUCY, YOU LOOK GREAT.

THANK YOU, DARLING.

WHERE'S BRONCO?

THE LIMOUSINE HAD A TELEVISION.

HE'S WATCHING THE END OF THE SHOW.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT HIM.

LET'S GO IN.

YO, YO, YO, THE RHYTHM IS WHAT IT'S ABOUT

SO JUST KEEP MOVING, PARTY PEOPLE.

( dance music )

HI, GUYS.

HI.

Boy: HI.

Boy: AMY.

� YOU'VE GOT A WAY OF MOVING ME SO BAD, GIRL. �

( dance music continues )

Alison: CAN'T BELIEVE BOTH OUR DATES CAME DOWN WITH THE FLU.

THIS IS DEFINITELY TO DIE.

ALISON.

SHOWING UP TONIGHT?

THAT IS TACKY.

THIS COULD WRECK MY WHOLE EVENING.

POOR GUY.

WASN'T THAT A CRAZY RIDE HERE?

HEY, THE PLACE LOOKS PRETTY GOOD.

YEAH.

BYE BYE, DEGRASSI HIGH.

I DON'T SEE HER.

WELL, THIS IS CAITLIN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.

THE CHICK'S ALWAYS LATE.

WELL, WE'RE GOING TO GO IN.

SO, SEE YOU IN THERE?

OKAY, SEE YOU IN THERE.

WELL, HOW DO I LOOK?

HOW'S MY HAIR?

YEAH, IT'S FINE.

MAN, YOU'RE NERVOUS.

WELL, THIS NIGHT MEANS A LOT TO ME.

IF I MESS UP, I MAY NEVER GET ANOTHER CHANCE.

RELAX.

EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE.

TRUST ME.

DON'T SAY THAT.

EVERY TIME YOU SAY THAT, IT'S A DISASTER, MAN.

I GIVE HER ABOUT TEN MINUTES.

Tim: YOU HAVING A GOOD TIME?

Liz: YEAH, I'M HAVING A REALLY GOOD TIME.

D.J.: All right, party people, we're going to slow it down...

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS OUR LAST TIME HERE.

I KNOW, I'LL REALLY MISS THIS PLACE.

DO YOU WANT TO DANCE?

SURE.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING LATER?

I WANT TO GO TO A PARTY...

CAITLIN'S BEEN LATE BEFORE, BUT NEVER THIS LATE.

I SHOULD HAVE PICKED HER UP.

WOULD YOU CALM DOWN?

Girl: HI, JOEY.

OH, HI.

I'M GOING TO GO CHECK MY HAIR.

CAN YOU HOLD ON TO THAT FOR ME?

JOEY.

YEAH?

YOUR HAIR'S FINE.

WELL, I WANT TO CHECK IT.

JOEY.

WHAT?

WASHROOM'S THAT WAY.

THERE'S TOO MANY PEOPLE OVER THERE.

I'M GOING TO ANOTHER ONE.

SEE YOU INSIDE.

OKAY.

WHOA.

HYPER OR WHAT?

HEY, YOU OKAY?

ARE YOU DRUNK?

I, UH... DIDN'T SEE YOU DURING EXAMS.

I DIDN'T TAKE THEM.

WHAT'S THE POINT?

I'M ONLY GOING TO DIE, RIGHT?

WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE SOMEDAY.

SOME OF US ARE GOING SOONER THAN OTHERS.

YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THEY'LL FIND A CURE.

SAVE IT, JEREMIAH.

TOLD MY PARENTS.

MY DAD WAS MAD

JUST LIKE I THOUGHT.

BUT MOM WAS DECENT.

SHE CRIED.

AT LEAST THEY KNOW NOW.

I HAVE NEVER SEEN YOU SO SLOW.

SORRY, I COULDN'T DECIDE WHAT TO WEAR.

HE'S NOT HERE.

HE PROBABLY GOT TIRED OF WAITING AND WENT HOME.

NO, HE KNOWS I'M ALWAYS LATE.

HOW DO I LOOK?

HOW'S MY DRESS?

HOW'S MY HAIR?

CAITLIN, YOU LOOK FINE.

RELAX, HE'LL BE HERE.

WELL, LOOK, I GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE.

ARE YOU GOING TO STAY IN HERE ALL NIGHT OR WHAT?

I THOUGHT I COULD HANDLE IT.

I SEE THEM STARING AT ME, I SEE THEM TALKING.

THIS WAS MY SCHOOL, TOO.

I WANTED TO BE HERE TONIGHT.

LIKE A FUNERAL, YOU KNOW?

LOOK, DON'T LET THEM DO THIS TO YOU.

I USED TO LIKE IT WHEN PEOPLE WERE AFRAID OF ME.

BUT THIS IS DIFFERENT.

DWAYNE, COME ON.

YOU'VE GOT NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF.

THEY'RE THE JERKS.

YOU'VE GOT JUST AS MUCH RIGHT TO BE HERE

AS ANYONE ELSE.

LOOK, I GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE.

HOW DO I LOOK?

PRETTY STUDLY, HUH?

SURE, GIVEN WHAT YOU'VE GOT TO WORK WITH.

THANKS.

D.J.: Oh, yeah.

Keep those feet moving, party people.

� FANTASTIC, THAT'S THE WAY I FEEL. �

� FANTASTIC, YOU CAN'T TELL ME IT'S NOT REAL. �

� FANTASTIC, THAT'S THE WAY I FEEL. �

� FANTASTIC, YOU CAN'T TELL ME IT'S NOT REAL. �

I CAN'T SEE HIM.

THIS IS GREAT.

HE ASKED ME TO THE DANCE

THEN HE STANDS ME UP.

MAYBE HE THOUGHT YOU WEREN'T COMING.

I SHOULD HAVE JUST SAID NO.

I THOUGH MAYBE WE COULD GET BACK TOGETHER AGAIN.

SILLY ME.

I'VE NEVER BEEN SO HUMILIATED IN MY WHOLE LIFE.

I'M GOING TO GO HOME.

NO... WAIT.

STAY AND HAVE SOME FUN.

FUN? NOW?

FORGET IT.

I HATE HIM.

CAITLIN.

HI.

HI.

I WAS, UM... COMBING MY HAIR.

THAT'S OKAY.

I WAS LATE.

OF COURSE.

YOU LOOK INCREDIBLE.

� FANTASTIC, YOU CAN'T TELL ME IT'S NOT REAL. �

HELLO, DEGRASSI.

( cheers )

WE'VE GOT A LOT OF MUSIC AND DANCING AHEAD OF US.

I'VE GOT A SPECIAL REQUEST.

IT'S KIND OF A SLOW AND ROMANTIC NUMBER.

SO WHY DON'T YOU FIND THAT SPECIAL SOMEONE

AND LET'S DANCE.

� AS TEARS GO BY, UP WHERE YOUR LOVE RUNS FREE. �

WOULD YOU LIKE TO DANCE?

SURE.

OH, WONDERFUL.

� MY HUNGRY HEART BEATS... �

THIS IS GREAT.

I ALMOST THOUGHT YOU WEREN'T GOING TO SHOW UP.

I WAS GETTING REALLY PARANOID.

YOU THOUGHT?

YOU'VE BEEN LATE BEFORE, BUT NEVER THIS LATE.

I WASN'T THAT LATE.

ONLY HALF AN HOUR.

� TO HOLD YOU INSIDE OF MY ARMS �

� JUST ONE LAST TIME �

( sighs )

� DEEP INSIDE MY PIANO. �

� I CAN TOUCH YOU HERE TONIGHT... �

� THE TWISTED NIGHT HAS NOT FORGOTTEN YOU �

� AND THE PAIN I FEEL... �

DWAYNE, IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU.

THANKS.

Dwayne: I WANTED TO BE HERE.

Joanne: GOOD.

OH, MAN, IT'S DWAYNE.

COME ON, LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

NO.

TABI.

I'M STAYING.

IT'S FINE, BUT IT'S YOUR FUNERAL.

� HERE WITH THE KEYS AND THE CHORDS �

� AND THE MEMORIES �

� I CAN FEEL YOU HERE TONIGHT �

� HERE INSIDE MY PIANO. �

HEY, SHORTY...

WANT TO DANCE?

YEAH, I'D LOVE TO.

� TONIGHT... �

HEY, MR. RADITCH, YOU WANT TO DANCE?

SURE, WHY NOT?
