TiBBOaks - Episode 11
Opening Sequence:
"All The Young Dudes" by Mott the Hoople is playing as the camera slowly ascends the feet of four boys. They turn out to be Hugo, DamonJ, MarkSpears and another friend, called Riz. They are walking in a line, with a cocky swagger, wearing sunglasses. They approach a bridge on the walk home and they notice someone suddenly jumping off the edge. They immediately rush down the embankment to the riverside, and a small crowd gathers as the music fades.

Scene One:
Riz: Oh my God!
MarkSpears: Who is it? He looked young!
DamonJ: Aaaaaaaaaaah!
Hugo: Can anyone swim?
MarkSpears: You mean you can't?
Hugo: No, just...I'm not very good.
DamonJ: Make way for Damon, bitches.
He dives in and swims to the middle of the river, where Conzors is frustratingly trying to drown himself.
DamonJ: [turning to the others and shouting] It's Conzors!
Hugo: Ew, leave him there!
DamonJ drags him to the edge of the river regardless of his friend's advice, and pulls him out of the water.
Riz: Holy GaGa, why would you do something like that?
Conzors: I didn't want to be rescued! Leave me alone!
He runs off again.

Scene Two:
It is now early evening, and at Daren's flat, he and Sam are cuddled up on the sofa. Rory comes out of his bedroom wearing a shirt and gold chain, with some faded jeans.
Rory: I'm off out.
Daren: Uh, you're 15. No you're not.
Rory: I think you're forgetting what Sam did to me.
Sam!: Nothing happened, you twisted little ba-
Daren: Sam, babe, shush. Go ahead - go out then. But it's a Tuesday night, and you'll regret it in the morning when you're at school.
Rory: Meh, I'll have the day off.
He smiles patronisingly and slams the door behind him.
Sam!: We've got to do something about this.
Daren: It's only 2 weeks - besides, mum's given us way too much allowance for him. I fancy a Chinese, you in?
Sam! smiles and heads for the phone.

Scene Three:
At Sia's house, Gemma and Zee are stood at the door looking upset.
Sia: Well, I guess this is it.
Gemma: I know I said you should expand your horizons, but I wasn't expecting it so soon.
Zee: Are you sure you want to do this, Sia?
Sia: I've had enough of TiBBOaks for now - my career's going nowhere, I've had my share of trauma and I need to see more of the world. I'm going to miss you two so much though.
Zee: Come here, Sis.
They have a group hug, before a taxi blasts the horn outside.
Zee: Here, I'll carry your bags.
Sia: Thanks.
They approach the taxi and the driver puts the bags in the boot.
Sia: Gemma - I'll be on the phone to you every day with the latest goss, and I expect the same in return. Zee, make sure you take care of your little sister yeah?
Zee: [through tears] Yeah...
Sia climbs into the taxi and rolls down the window, waving to her siblings as the taxi drives off.

Scene Four:
At Iceman's bakery, Loukas has just returned home. Remy is playing video games in his bedroom, and Ash is still at the school working. As Loukas enters the living room, Iceman shuts the door and indicates him to sit down.
Loukas: What?
Iceman: You got anything you want to tell me?
Loukas: ...no?
Iceman: I'm so disappointed in you. Why can't you trust me?
Loukas: Can you please tell me what you're on about?
Iceman: THIS.
He throws the bag of pills onto the coffee table, and Loukas stares, open-mouthed in shock.
Loukas: Look, I can explain...
Iceman: I bet you can. Let me guess - you're looking after them for a friend.
Loukas: Yeah actually!
Iceman: I wasn't born yesterday. You've been acting increasingly erratic of late, coming home late, drunk, though in retrospect it was probably a lot more serious than a few Bacardi Breezers, right?
Loukas: You don't know anything about my life.
Iceman: I was a teenager once, I grew up in the 70s. I know a bit about drugs, believe me.
Loukas: Really? Did you take any?
Iceman: Nothing serious. But I had a best friend called Harry - he was training to be a surgeon. Anyway, we got really into the local music scene, which obviously was swimming with marijuana - that's where I stopped. But Harry, he got introduced to heroin.
Loukas: Woah, that's bad.
Iceman: That's not the worst of it. We were room-mates at college, when this was going on. One morning I came home from a night out with a few other friends, and as I came into the bedroom I found him on top of his bed, face down, pale as a ghost. He'd overdosed, Loukas.
Loukas: I don't know what to say...
Iceman: I do. If you've got any sense in you, you'll give this up immediately. I'll help you as much as you want, but I do not want to have to bury my son in my lifetime.
Loukas: I'm sorry Dad...
Iceman: It's OK. Let's just not tell mum about it.
Loukas: I wasn't planning to!

Scene Five:
Baz's house. He wakes up and finds Nickyy on his shoulder, obviously naked under the covers. She awakens slowly, and suddenly realises where she is. Jumping out of bed and hurriedly putting on her clothes, she rushes to the bathroom to be sick.
Baz: Are you okay?
Nickyy: Oh my...did we...oh god, this is bad.
Baz: What do you mean?
Nickyy: I have to go. I'll...bye.
She runs downstairs and we hear the front door slam.

Scene Six:
Annie's dormitory. Annie and Princess are out at a lecture, whilst Lauren sits on the sofa, hugging Ross. Mark opens the door for Christina, and lets her in.
Christina: Oh, hey, I didn't know you'd be here...
Ross: Hi...
Christina: [to Lauren] You will not believe the last few days I've had.
Lauren: Why? Spill.
Mark: Oh hey Mark, thanks for letting me in!
He pulls a face and rushes to take a seat next to Christina, eager for gossip.
Christina: Well, you know my dad?
Mark: Tom?
Christina: Yeah. Well, he's told me the other day that I have a little brother. Not only that, but that my Mum was...get this, Linda!
Lauren: No way!
Mark: This is so juicy!
Ross: Didn't she die recently?
Mark: Ugh, so behind.
Ross: I don't have daily catch-ups over margaritas.
Lauren: Sssh! Carry on, Chrissy.
Christina: Ew, don't call me that. Anyway, my little brother, I don't know if you know him. He goes to the high school nearby, he's called Billy.
Mark: Nope.
Lauren: No idea.
Christina: Yeah, so when Dad introduced me to him, he drove me to that Fom's place.
Ross: He died too!
Mark rolls his eyes.
Christina: Yeah, turns out that Fom and Doug are my half-brothers.
Lauren: No!
Mark: It's a small world after all.
Ross: So, you've just found out that your mum and half-brother are dead in the space of two days, as well as finding two other new brothers.
Christina: Pretty much. And now he wants us to all live together in Fom's old place.
Lauren: That'd be creepy.
Christina: I know. So I said I'd come over every now and then for dinner and that, but I'm not moving in.
Mark: Good for you, sister.
Lauren: Oh God, I need to get ready.
Ross: For what?
Lauren: Work, you silly!
Christina: Oh, did Andy give you the job?
Lauren: Yeah! It's only 4 days a week, but...it pays well!
She puts on a black shirt, part of the uniform, and begins applying make-up.
Mark: Well, I'm going to go meet Annie and Princess for drinks.
Christina: I'll come along!
Mark: Fab!
They gather their belongings, such as wallets and keys, and head out.
Ross: So, this fit new waitress, I heard she's available.
Lauren: Yeah, she's, uh...open, let's say.
Ross: That was a rubbish euphemism, but I love you anyway. I'll come in later for a drink or moral support. Good luck, babe.
He kisses her on the forehead and they leave the dormitory.

Scene Seven:
At Muse's house, Firewire is arranging things for the school Prom with his mum, when Hugo, DamonJ and MarkSpears enter. DamonJ is still dripping wet, and BigSister rushes to him with a towel.
BigSister: Oh, please take off your shoes, I've just cleaned the carpets!
Muse: What happened to you?
Hugo: Some nutter jumped in the river and Damon rescued him.
Firewire: Who was it?
Hugo: Just because it was attempted suicide, doesn't mean you have to stick your oar in.
Muse: What did you just say?
Hugo: Nothing.
Muse: I don't think so, that is not a joking matter young man. Now, Damon, go and get a shower before you catch pneumonia. Hugo can lend you some clothes to wear, can't you Hugo?
Hugo: Sure...
BigSister: Here's a towel!
She returns from the kitchen rather excitedly, and the 3 friends ascend the stairs, Damon going into the bathroom. Mark and Hugo go to Hugo's room, and put on some music channels.
MarkSpears: Ew, not The Script.
Hugo: So not hot.
They flick through channels and Hugo passes Mark a can of Lilt.
Hugo: So, why would he want to try to kill himself?
MarkSpears: Imagine being him. Wouldn't you do the same?
Hugo: I suppose. I just still can't believe he touched you up right here.
He looks down at the bed and shudders. DamonJ marches into the room, bare naked.
MarkSpears: Ew, put it away!
Hugo: You'll have someone's eye out!
DamonJ: Clothes, betch, and make them fabulous.
He puts a towel around his waist, whilst Hugo, still covering his eyes with his hand, rummages through his wardrobe.

Scene Eight:
At Daren's house, Sam is binning the remains of a takeaway, when Rory, evidently drunk, staggers through the front door.
Rory: I am sooo not able to stand up.
Daren: I bet mother would be proud. Go to your room, I'll bring in some water and paracetamol. You'll need them later.
Rory: You two been gaying it up I guess.
Sam!: Yeah, careful, your bedsheets are really messy now.
Rory: Ugh, gross.
Daren: He's joking.
Rory: Still sick.
Sam!: Wouldn't be sick if I was a girl, though, would it?
Rory: Well duh.
Daren: GO TO BED.
He shoves Rory in his room and shuts the door.

Scene Nine:
At Andy's club, Lauren is behind the bar with Matt. They are flirting innocently, making a few suggestive comments and the like. Ross walks in and kisses Lauren on the lips.
Ross: How's my girl's first shift then?
Lauren: It's quiet, but...that's a good thing I suppose. Oh, by the way, this is Matt.
Matt: Hey, you're her boyfriend right?
He says this whilst placing his hand on Lauren's shoulder.
Ross: Uh, yeah, nice to meet you.
Lauren: Matt's been showing me the ropes. I know how to make a Pina Colata now!
Matt: You're a wise student, my little protege.
She smiles and happens to flick her hair at the same time.
Ross: Can I have a word?
Lauren: Sure.
She waits for him to talk, when Ross looks at Matt as if asking him to go away.
Ross: Is he...you know, being a bit upfront with you?
Lauren: No! He's just being friendly.
Ross: Yeah, looked a bit more than friendly if you ask me.
Lauren: Oh don't be silly, you know I love you.
Ross: I know, just...stop being so, you know, touchy.
Lauren: I'M being touchy? You're one to talk!
Ross: That's not what I meant.
Lauren: Just go, will you? I'll talk to you later.
Matt: Is everything okay, here?
Ross: Yes it's fine, thanks, please butt out.
Lauren: Ross!
Matt: If you've got a problem with me-
Ross: You'll what?
Lauren: Just GO will you?
Ross: Fine. See you later.
He looks threateningly at Matt and leaves.
Lauren: I'm SO sorry, he's just very...you know, possessive.
Matt: That's fine, I don't mind. I'd be the same if you were my girlfriend.
She smiles politely and serves another customer.

Scene Ten:
At Tom's new house, Billy, Doug and Tom are sat at the dinner table eating fajitas and tacos.
Tom: So, one big family at last.
Billy: Yeah, great.
Doug: Hmm.
Tom: Well if that's going to be your attitudes, I think you can both have some extra guacamole.
He flings some at Billy's face with a spoon and Doug runs out of the room laughing.
Billy: For God's sake!
He storms out of the room
Doug: Oh dear...
Tom: Teenagers. Ah well, never mind. Oh by the way, catch!
He flings another spoon and it hits the wall, narrowly missing Doug. Doug laughs and throws back the spoon. As Tom goes to pick it up, he stops at the window.
Doug: Something wrong?
Tom: No, just, I thought I saw a ghost.
Doug: Oh?
Tom: Hmm.

Scene Eleven:
The camera immediately cuts to outside, where, in the same car, James is now sat on his own. He finishes taking a few photographs with a large Kodak, and places the camera down on top of a folder in the passenger's seat. The folder has a white sticker on the front, with the words 'Smith, Tom' on the front. He hurriedly drives off.

Closing Sequence:
As the camera cuts to a scene where Princess is smiling and kissing an unknown boy goodbye, Jamelia's "See It In A Boy's Eyes" plays. She turns to walk home when Mark is stood there, arms folded and eyebrow raised. We then cut to Nickyy's house, where Baz is knocking at the door. We see his eyes through the letterbox (c wot i did ther?) and there's no answer, as the camera spins to Nickyy sat on the stairs looking remorseful. Finally, we see Conzors walking down the local alleyway in the dark. Another man walks up to him, clearly offering drugs, and Conzors stops. Thinking for a moment, he decides to purchase some. The final camera shot is of Conzors' eyes as he looks up from what he's just purchased, and he hurries away into the darkness.
