00:04My name is Penelope Jones, but everyone calls me Penny for short.
00:14Well, everyone except for him. Mason Brown, star quarterback of Maple High,
00:22my neighbor, my best friend, and the boy I've had a crush on since the third grade.
00:27Penelope, calm down. I'm here to rescue you.
00:35Mason, where the heck are we going?
00:40Shh. I don't want to wake your mom up.
00:44It was the kind of summer you'd never forget. Every moment with Mason made my heart race.
00:50And he had no idea.
00:52Look, it's a surprise. Let's go.
01:02Mason, the pool's closed. How did you get the keys?
01:05Courtesy of lifeguard, Brett. You owe me a favor.
01:09Oh, Penelope, my sweet, sweet Penelope. You gotta stop worrying about everything and live a little.
01:25What are you waiting for? Come on.
01:27We're not supposed to be in here.
01:45Eyes up here, Romeo.
01:53Why are you looking at me like that?
01:55Penelope. You've been there for me. You threw everything. We failed driver's tests. We had haircuts.
02:04When I lost my mom with cancer, you were the most important person in my life.
02:11I'll watch you in it forever. All summer I've wanted to do this.
02:43Jason Brown, do you have any idea what you're doing?
02:45It's not my fault they made girls' clothing so complicated.
02:49You didn't sign these damn things.
03:09My first time with my best friend, Mason Brown. The boy I love.
03:18It was everything I ever wanted.
03:25Never been in the community center at night.
03:27A lot of firsts tonight, I guess.
03:29Are you sure you're okay?
03:31Stop worrying, Mason.
03:33Just don't be weird when school starts, okay?
03:35All right. Come on.
03:37Hey, wait.
03:39What?
03:55Mom, I just went for...
03:58Honey, take a seat.
04:00There's something we need to talk about.
04:11Hey, Pinoffi.
04:15So, uh, homecoming's coming up.
04:18Do you want to be my girlfriend and come with me?
04:33No, Mason.
04:35I don't want to go to homecoming with you.
04:37And I definitely don't want to be your girlfriend.
04:39Oh my gosh!
04:40What's her problem?
04:41What?
04:42Oh my gosh!
04:43What?
04:44Oh my gosh!
04:45You're not serious, right?
04:46I thought...
04:47You thought wrong.
04:48Look, let's not confuse sex with love.
04:50It was fun for the summer, but I don't want anything serious with you.
04:54Sorry.
04:56Did that dumb bitch seriously just turn down Mason Brown?
04:59Who does she even think she is?
05:00She's like bottom of the food chain.
05:03Mason's the quarterback.
05:03Everyone knows he should be with you, Valerie.
05:12I gotta get to class.
05:14I'll see you around, okay?
05:15Wait, is something wrong?
05:17Look, Penelope, I've known you for 12 years.
05:18This isn't you.
05:19Can we please just talk later?
05:20Can I do something wrong?
05:21Let's talk about it now!
05:21Mason, please!
05:22Just stop!
05:23That night was real.
05:24Okay, I didn't imagine.
05:25Quiet!
05:25You're just bad at sex, okay?
05:31Yeah, I mean, you were terrible in bed.
05:35You tried it.
05:37Didn't like it.
05:38Let's not make it a big deal.
05:40We're just friends.
05:41Okay?
05:59Tenelope, what are you hiding from me?
06:02Just...
06:02Go away!
06:06I'm so sorry, Mason.
06:08You don't deserve this.
06:11But I'm dying from cancer.
06:13And I can't be another person you lose.
06:16If I need to push you away to protect you, I will.
06:19Whatever it takes to keep you from any pain, just like I promised.
06:26My mommy said your mom's in a better place now.
06:28One where she won't have to hurt anyone.
06:31But you don't want me anymore.
06:32I'm all alone and I'm so scared.
06:35And it just hurts so bad.
06:37Why did you leave me?
06:39Why?
06:39I can't leave it.
06:41She's up there now, in the clouds, watching over you and keeping you safe.
06:45And here on Earth, I will keep you safe so your mommy doesn't have to worry.
06:49I will protect you, Mason, so you never ever have to hurt again.
06:55Don't worry, Mrs. Brown.
06:57I will protect Mason.
06:59Always.
06:59I promise.
07:03Oh, honey, you look exhausted.
07:07I really just wish you'd reconsider dropping out just until your cancer treatments are finished.
07:11Focus on getting better.
07:13We already talked about this, Mom.
07:15There's no guarantee the treatment will work.
07:17Besides, if I drop out now, that means giving up Romeo and Juliet.
07:22And I can't do that.
07:24Penny, it's just a play.
07:26It's not!
07:27Mom, this is everything I've ever dreamed of since I was a little kid.
07:31I just...
07:33I want to be on stage with Mason, like when we were kids, and forget that I have cancer.
07:38Forget that I'm dying.
07:40Anyway, if he gets a part of Romeo and I get Juliet, I'll be able to hold on to one
07:45perfect moment before I'm gone.
07:50Okay.
07:51All right, you can do the play.
07:53All right, but you have to take care of your health.
07:56Yeah.
07:57Yeah.
08:00The minute you get into any kind of trouble, I am pulling you out.
08:03That's no more school, no Romeo and Juliet.
08:08Okay.
08:08Have you told Mason about the cancer?
08:13Delpy, you home?
08:16Oh my God.
08:17It's Mason.
08:18Mom!
08:18Please tell him I'm not here.
08:20And whatever you do, do not tell him about the cancer.
08:23Please.
08:24I think you should tell him the truth.
08:26He'll understand.
08:27Mom, do this for me.
08:29His mom died of cancer, remember?
08:30If he finds out, it'll only break him even more.
08:33Why put him through that?
08:40Oh.
08:41Hey, Miss J.
08:42Is Penelope home?
08:46Um, she's...
08:48She's not home right now.
08:49She's out with some friends.
08:51You want to come back later?
08:53Yeah.
08:54Okay.
08:55Thanks, Miss J.
09:04Oh, Mason.
09:05I may not know how much time I have left, but I do know this.
09:09I want my last words for you to be honest.
09:12Real.
09:44Mason, did you just climb my balcony?
09:47Are you insane?
09:48What if you slipped and fell and broke your neck or something?
09:52Penelope, I'll be both side in your hand.
09:56What are you hiding?
10:01Um...
10:02Hiding something.
10:03Please, Mason.
10:04I was just rehearsing for the play.
10:07Um...
10:09So, what are you doing here?
10:10I wanted to talk.
10:12I know you got your mom the cover for you.
10:14Who, by the way, has always sucked at lying.
10:16But now you're avoiding me?
10:17I wasn't home.
10:18Since when do best friends lie to each other?
10:20First, you embarrassed me in front of the whole school.
10:23And now you can't even be honest with me?
10:26Please.
10:28Mason, I already told you.
10:30I...
10:30I just don't like you like that.
10:32We're just friends.
10:33That's all we'll ever be.
10:35That night was just...
10:36for fun.
10:40I want the truth, Penelope.
10:43Fine.
10:44You want the truth?
10:46It's because...
10:48I'm in love with Dean.
10:49He's the one I want.
10:50Bullshit.
10:52You don't love Dean.
10:53You barely even talked to him.
10:54I didn't say it earlier because I didn't think I had to spell it out.
10:57He's hot.
10:57And he's smart.
10:59And...
11:00He understands me in a way you could never.
11:02Oh, give me a break, Penelope.
11:03Look, I know you're the best.
11:05Dean's the biggest dick in school.
11:06He's just gonna find a way to fuck you and then drop you like he does with every girl.
11:09You're one to talk.
11:10At least he's not someone who can't take no for an answer.
11:13Hey, it's not romantic, Mason.
11:15It's desperate.
11:16Why can't you just accept the fact that I will never love you?
11:19It's pathetic.
11:20You're being...
11:23Pathetic.
11:26You're right.
11:28I am being pathetic.
11:32You know what, Penelope?
11:34I'm tired.
11:35I'm tired of your games, your lies, and you.
11:40From now on, you're dead to me.
11:52I'm tired of your games, your lies, and you.
11:56From now on, you're dead to me.
11:58Maybe it's better if Mason hates me.
12:00It won't hurt him so much when this cancer wins and I...
12:04Die.
12:05Oh my god!
12:06The cast list for Romeo and Juliet is up.
12:20So what if it's pretend?
12:22At least I'll get to be with Mason.
12:24Even if it's just for a little while.
12:26Star-crossed lovers.
12:28Just like when we were kids.
12:29Romeo.
12:30With a doll.
12:31Romeo.
12:33Oh!
12:33Oh!
12:35Oh!
12:35Oh!
12:36Oh!
12:36Oh!
12:37Oh!
12:37Oh!
12:38Oh!
12:43Oh!
12:45I'm not playing Romeo.
12:47Not if you're Juliet.
12:48I'm telling Mr. Felix I quit.
12:53Mason, please.
12:55Romeo's important to you too.
12:57Remember?
12:58Can't we just be civil?
12:59No, Penelope.
13:00We can't.
13:01We used to go on and on about how Juliet was someone who was kind and who's sweet and
13:05would risk it all for love.
13:06You're none of that.
13:08You don't deserve to play Juliet.
13:10Mason, please!
13:12Like I said, you're dead to me.
13:21Don't be delusional, Penny.
13:23You did this to yourself.
13:24But if Mason won't play Romeo, what's the point of me staying here any longer?
13:28Mason, being in this play with you?
13:31It's my last wish.
13:37Come on, Mason.
13:38She said it herself.
13:39She doesn't want you.
13:41Forget her.
13:45I'm sorry.
13:50Pathetic Penny is Juliet.
13:52You have got to be kidding me.
13:54Talk about a pity casting.
13:57Everyone knows that I'm the best actress.
14:00And I'm the cheer captain, so I'm the one who belongs up there with Mason Brown,
14:04while you belong in the back with the furniture.
14:06Leave me alone, Valerie.
14:08I don't have time for your pettiness.
14:10Me petty?
14:11I'll show you petty.
14:25Enjoy your 15 minutes of fame, freak.
14:31Freak.
14:36Aw, Val.
14:37She looks upset.
14:39Maybe we should fix her up.
14:40Great idea!
14:42You know, Penny, if you're going to be the lead in the school play, then you've really got to do
14:47something about this hair.
14:48I might be dying of cancer, but I'm done letting Valerie walk all over me.
14:53No matter what you do, I earned the lead role in the play.
14:57Well, on the other hand, Val, you're just a pick-me who, in the end, will never get picked.
15:03What the fuck did you just say to me?
15:07My hair.
15:08I'm in the chemo.
15:09Oh!
15:10MG, gross!
15:11Oh, is she shedding?
15:13As if you weren't disgusting enough, you freak, and you have the audacity to even look at me?
15:22Let's see what dirty secrets you're hiding.
15:24No!
15:25My medical report is in there!
15:36No, no, no!
15:37My hair!
15:38Mason can't see this!
15:44Get your fucking hands off!
15:58What the fuck is your problem?
16:00Relax, Mason.
16:01I was just trying to sweetly explain to Penny here that you and I belong together.
16:07Isn't that right, girls?
16:08Mm-hmm.
16:11Nice try, Val.
16:12I almost forgot, you're a complete bitch.
16:14You think tormenting Penelope is just going to make me like you?
16:16You're wrong.
16:18Grow up!
16:19But, Mason!
16:24You're wrong.
16:25You're wrong.
16:27You're wrong.
16:28You're wrong.
16:30Thank you for saving me back there.
16:33I didn't save you because I still like you or care or whatever.
16:37I just did what anyone would have done, so don't read into it, all right?
16:41You know, the truth is I don't even know why I bothered saving you.
16:43After the way you gutted me yesterday?
16:45What did you call me?
16:46Pathetic?
16:48Mason, stop.
16:50Please.
16:53I'm just trying to stay friends.
16:55Well, don't do that.
16:56Don't throw friends at me like that fixes anything.
16:58I'm not some backup toy you can pull off the shelf whenever you're bored, all right?
17:00You hurt me, Penelope.
17:02I poured out my heart to you and you broke it.
17:04You stomped on it in front of the entire school.
17:06And you think we can stay friends after that?
17:08No, I don't want to be friends with someone who...
17:11Hey!
17:12Penelope!
17:14Penelope!
17:22Where... where am I?
17:25Where's Mason?
17:26I sent him back to class.
17:27Penny, I just got off the phone with your mom.
17:29I gotta say, I'm really surprised you're still in school.
17:33You know?
17:36Oh my god, did you tell Mason?
17:38No, of course not.
17:39I'm not going to tell another student your medical history.
17:42But that boy was worried sick.
17:45He was crying.
17:47He wouldn't leave your side.
17:49Class is out.
17:51I'm sure he'll be back any moment.
17:55Penelope.
17:56No, Penny.
17:58You already lost him.
17:59Act like it.
18:00Are you okay?
18:01That was so scary.
18:02I've never seen class out before.
18:03What happened?
18:04It's a recent thing.
18:07It's just low blood sugar.
18:10Just because I play football doesn't mean I'm dumb.
18:12Blood blood sugar doesn't cause nosebleeds.
18:16Be honest, Penelope.
18:19Are you sick?
18:24My god, Mason.
18:25No.
18:26I just got stressed about the situation.
18:30Can we just let it go?
18:32I was worried.
18:34When my mom was sick, she had nosebleeds and was fainting.
18:40I just can't imagine if I'd lost you two.
18:43I needed to make sure you were okay.
18:45But anyway, I came here for a truce.
18:49A truce?
18:52Does this mean you'll still play Romeo?
18:54Then I'll be your best friend.
18:56It may be kind of a shitty one the past couple days, but I'm willing to get past that.
19:00Okay.
19:02So, yeah.
19:03I'll play Romeo.
19:05Yes.
19:06Mason.
19:10Whatever you're not telling me, whatever you're going through, it's whatever.
19:15I just want to go back to being best friends again.
19:19Okay.
19:22Truth.
19:30A few ground rules though, okay?
19:34One, no flirting.
19:36Even if it's a joke.
19:39Two, if it ever does get too hard for us to just be friends, please let me know.
19:45And three, Mason, don't fall in love with me.
19:54Because I'm going to die.
19:59All right.
20:00All right.
20:00If that's what it takes for us to go back to being best friends, consider it done.
20:09You win, Penelope.
20:10You always win.
20:13I may not know what's wrong, but I can't let you go through it alone.
20:17I'm going to find out what you're hiding.
20:21Attention, class.
20:23Please partner up.
20:26Fine.
20:35Mr. Felix?
20:36It looks like the mutt of the class got left behind again.
20:42Well, does no one wish to partner with Miss Jones?
20:48I suppose I will step in.
20:52Mr. Felix as my partner?
20:54I'd rather choke on my own spit.
20:59Look at you, Penny.
21:01You got the teacher as a partner now?
21:03What's next? Lunch duty with the janitor?
21:07I'm busy, Val.
21:09Can I ignore you some other time?
21:11Oh, Penny, you're so touchy.
21:13I suppose not everyone can be like me.
21:16I'm just so lucky that Mason's my partner.
21:19Someone has to save him from being stuck with losers like you.
21:22Really, Val?
21:24Because I know Mason.
21:26And I know that he'd rather eat glass than be with you.
21:31Please.
21:32Do you really expect me to believe that?
21:34Who would he pick over me?
21:36You.
21:38Mason doesn't want to be your partner you reject.
21:41Do you really think that you want to drag him down to your level?
21:44I'm seriously asking.
21:46Deep down, do you think that being with Mason is good for him?
21:50She's right.
21:51No matter what, being close to me isn't good for Mason.
21:56I want to be with Penelope.
22:03I want to be with her.
22:05As her best friend.
22:07As her partner.
22:09As her everything.
22:11She'll have me.
22:15And Valerie, I've seen you act and need some work.
22:17Mason!
22:19You're supposed to be my partner.
22:21Oh, Valerie, no need for tears.
22:23I'll be your partner then.
22:27Now, class, we all know how important chemistry is in Romeo and Juliet.
22:34Which is why today's exercise is...
22:37the w-w-waltz!
22:40Yes! Now, everyone, face your partner.
22:43Yep, there we go.
22:45Let go of control.
22:48Surrender to the moment.
22:50And yourselves.
22:59Oh, sorry.
23:01I always knew you had two left feet.
23:03Hey, if I'm remembering correctly, it was you that broke your leg in Mrs. Toffman's dance class last year.
23:09Okay, but who was carrying my books to class every day when I was on crutches?
23:13That's what I thought.
23:14Hey, next year at State, you think we'll be able to be in the same dorms?
23:17Can't wait to bug you all the time.
23:20Mason, I don't even know if I'm going to live long enough to make it to summer.
23:24Oh, look at that!
23:26Everyone, have a great rest of your day and don't forget your homework!
23:36Um...
23:37Actually, wait.
23:41Um...
23:43I was thinking, um...
23:45We should practice.
23:47Try to perfect our performance for the play.
23:49At least this way, I get to spend time with you.
23:53Okay, Romeo.
23:55Go get my scripts.
24:00Ah!
24:02I pilgrim lips that they must use in prayer!
24:11Hey.
24:12Oh, okay.
24:12Sorry.
24:14This is serious.
24:15Okay?
24:17I need you to lock in.
24:26Oh then, dear saint.
24:29Let lips do as hands do.
24:35It's a move not.
24:37While my prayers affect I take.
24:40It's a smooth that...
24:43rough touch.
24:48With a kiss.
24:49Mason, you're everything I've ever wanted.
25:00Sorry.
25:01I got caught up in the scene.
25:04It's okay.
25:05It's nothing. It's just...
25:06This is just rehearsal.
25:09If that's all you want it to be...
25:12Is that all you want it to be?
25:14Mason, we already talked about this.
25:16Please don't make it harder than it has to be.
25:19I'm going to die, Mason.
25:21My cancer.
25:22I just don't want to hurt you even more.
25:25I can't.
25:26Please.
25:27Can we just...
25:34Dean, what are you doing here?
25:36Hey, man.
25:36I just came in and said I had a penny, alright?
25:38I don't need to get your panties in a twist.
25:40Hi, Penny.
25:42Hi, Dean.
25:43Well, you've seen her.
25:44So, we can leave now.
25:45You know, you're acting awful hard for someone who just got curved.
25:48Penny couldn't be more obvious, man.
25:50She doesn't want to kiss you.
25:51She doesn't want you.
25:52I think I know Penelope a hell of a lot better than you do.
25:55Why don't you tell him?
25:57I want to tell Mason the truth, but I can't.
26:00If Mason knows how I feel and he finds out that I'm sick, it'll only hurt him more.
26:06Dean's right.
26:07I don't want to kiss you.
26:09And I do not want you.
26:11I never will.
26:12We're just friends, Mason.
26:14Please respect that.
26:17Are you serious?
26:19Bro, she doesn't want you.
26:20Why don't you understand?
26:23Penny, um, if you ever do need a shoulder to cry on, my room's always open.
26:35Penelope.
26:39Penelope.
26:46Penelope, please.
26:49I told you not to follow me.
26:53Get the fuck off me, man.
26:55Can't you just put your ego aside for a second?
26:57You've heard her enough, man.
27:04I'm so sorry, Mason.
27:10So, I just got this new red bikini, and it looks...
27:14There she goes, laughing again, but looking so beautiful.
27:19What could that prick have said that's so funny?
27:21My parents are gonna be out of town.
27:23We're having a party.
27:24Of course Valerie's all over him.
27:26And he's actually listening?
27:29I was saying, my parents are gonna be out of town.
27:32We're having a party.
27:33You should come.
27:35Oh.
27:37A party.
27:40Party, huh?
27:41Yeah, it's not really Penelope's scene.
27:43Um, he doesn't speak for me.
27:47It sounds fun.
27:48I'll be there.
27:50Huh.
27:50See, man.
27:51She said she'll be there.
27:55Hey!
27:58I told you Dean's an asshole.
27:59Why are you still hanging out with him?
28:01Oh, so you can get all cozied up to Valerie,
28:03but I can't even talk to the guy that I like.
28:06You like him?
28:08It doesn't matter, Mason.
28:10This is too much.
28:11We're just friends.
28:13That's all we ever will be.
28:18You can shut me out all you want, Penelope,
28:20but I'm not giving up on you.
28:33Everything's changing.
28:34I wonder if I'll ever feel beautiful again.
28:38If I'll even live long enough to find out.
28:43Mason would know exactly what to say.
28:46He'd look at me like nothing's changed.
28:50Should I just tell him the truth?
29:06How does she manage to get more beautiful every time I see her?
29:17You look...
29:19Wow.
29:22Um...
29:23Thanks.
29:25Pathetic Penny just won't stay in her lane.
29:28I need to make sure she stays away from Mason.
29:31Listen, can we talk about her earlier?
29:34Okay.
29:35Let's go get another drink, Mason.
29:37I'm getting thirsty.
29:39I was starting to think you weren't going to show up.
29:41Oh.
29:45Let me tell you.
29:47It was definitely worth the wait.
29:50Wow.
29:54Well, thanks for inviting me.
29:56It's a really cool party.
30:00Party's just getting started.
30:01Would you like a tour?
30:03No, man.
30:03She's good.
30:04I thought Penny speaks for herself.
30:07Is that right, Penny?
30:10She deserves better than this side of me.
30:13Just because we're about to place them in the bottle, man.
30:17Happy.
30:21Oh!
30:22Yeah!
30:29Oh!
30:34Oh!
30:46Come on, everybody.
30:48Can't you see that she's shy?
30:49Why?
30:50If you want some privacy, there's a room up there.
30:53Um...
30:54What if we played a different game, guys?
30:57Truth or dare?
30:58Or something?
30:59Okay.
31:00Then I dare you to kiss Dean.
31:03Back off, Mallory, okay?
31:05No.
31:05Rules are rules.
31:06She doesn't get a free pass just because she's a chicken.
31:09Come on, Penny.
31:10It's just a kiss.
31:11Want to see one more?
31:12Come on.
31:13Just do it!
31:15Come on!
31:16Just do it!
31:17Come on.
31:17Just do it!
31:18Just do it!
31:19Just do it!
31:20Just do it!
31:21Come on.
31:21Just do it!
31:23Do it!
31:23Oh!
31:27Don't be such a cock-bark, Mason.
31:29They clearly are just trying to have fun.
31:31This is what she wants.
31:39This is for your own good, Mason
31:49Oh, um, we don't have to close the door
31:52Don't you want to be alone with me?
32:02Wait
32:04Hey, hey, relax, let me help you
32:13Wait
32:14Don't mind if it gets a little mess
32:18Dean
32:19Just relax, it'll make you feel better
32:23I'm down
32:25Hey
32:26Mmm
32:29I'm gonna let that slide because I'm a nice guy
32:32Hey, where are you going? You're the one that wanted this
32:34Can't just get up and leave
32:36Someone, anyone, help me
32:38Something's not right
32:41Stop, Dean, please, stop, I don't feel good
32:46You're gonna fix that, I'm just trying to be a nice guy
32:48I knew it
32:57I'm coming, Penope
32:58Just hold on
33:02Mason
33:07Mason
33:08Hey, what the fuck, yo, get your turn
33:10Don't fucking touch her
33:12Hey, she hit me first
33:13I always knew you were a piece of shit
33:18Hey, what the fuck, she was flirting with me, I swear
33:20You're doing this all over some slut
33:23Say that again, I dare you
33:28Underage drinking
33:29Attempted rape
33:31Good luck getting into college now, you sick fuck
33:33No, please, you ruined my life
33:34You didn't care when she was screaming for you to stop
33:36So why should I care what happens to you?
33:39You so much as look at Penelope again
33:40Then you're really gonna see how far I can go
33:48I got you
33:49I got you
34:00You're still bleeding
34:03Does it hurt?
34:09It's fine, I'm fine
34:11These stupid nosebleeds from the chemo
34:14Here, let me see
34:24You always had the prettiest eyes
34:27Please
34:29In sixth grade, you told everyone I had poop-colored eyes because you couldn't stop staring at me
34:34Well, I lied
34:40You've always been beautiful, Penelope
34:43Always
34:45Ever since I can remember
34:47Mason has been there for me
34:48How can I keep lying to him?
34:52Um
34:55Mason, I have something I have to tell you
34:58What is it?
35:01Oh shit, the cops
35:03What do we do?
35:05I think I know what to do, follow me
35:06Okay
35:09Kids, let's get a move on
35:26Can't believe I almost told Mason about my cancer
35:29God, Penny
35:30Don't be so weak
35:32You can't tell him
35:33You know this
35:36You are so lucky that your dad's chief of police, Mason
35:39But you are seriously in deep trouble
35:43Dad, it wasn't our fault
35:44I don't want to bail you guys out anymore, okay?
35:46Good behavior for the rest of the semester, okay?
35:52It won't happen again, Mr. Brown
36:08So, what's the arrangement looking like tonight?
36:11I sleep on the sofa, floor, bathtub?
36:15You can sleep here, if you want
36:18Do you want me to?
36:22It's better than the couch
36:26Yeah
36:35Thanks for staying over tonight
36:38I really appreciate it
36:40Of course
36:42I just wanted to make sure you're safe
36:46Penelope, you're the most important person in my life
36:50I just want you to know
36:51I will always be there for you
36:57Good night, Mason
36:59Good night, Penelope
37:13I'm sorry I couldn't tell you the truth tonight, Mason
37:18I have cancer
37:21It's everywhere, and it's not going away
37:23I guess I just wanted to say it out loud
37:26Even if you're not listening
37:31I love you, Mason
37:34It's always been you
37:51God
37:53How many more chemo sessions am I going to have to go through?
37:59I've always loved my hair
38:06Mason always loved my hair
38:18Who am I kidding?
38:20It's just one more thing I have to let go of
38:48I'm sorry
39:04It's so cold
39:04No one forgot to put my hair in it
39:13It's just like way of trying to get your hair out
39:13What am I going to be doing?
39:13I don't have to do this
39:13I'm not supposed to get this
39:13I'm not gonna love you
39:15I'm not supposed to do this
39:15What am I about?
39:47You're stronger than you know, Penny. No more fear. You got this.
39:59I can't keep overexerting myself before the Autumn Showcase or else I might not.
40:05Absolutely not obvious.
40:08Is it just me or is she being freakier than usual?
40:11She's like totally tweaking.
40:13You know, Val, if something happened to her, they'd need a new Juliet.
40:18What a great idea.
40:22Gather round, everyone.
40:24Listen, you didn't hear it from me, but pathetic Penny has been talking shit behind all of your backs.
40:28She's saying that the whole team is a bunch of dumb horse.
40:31Really, Val? Penny's always been nice to us.
40:33Excuse me? Are you calling me a liar?
40:37Without me, do you think that you would be valuable, you...
40:42Anyways, I am the only one who sees yourself worse, alright ladies?
40:46So I think it's time for a little revenge.
40:54Hey Reject, are you gonna spend the entire class being a creepy loner or are you gonna pull your weight?
41:03We don't tolerate slacking in this class, Penny.
41:06You're gonna have to face a penalty.
41:07Penny, what are you...
41:09Oh no!
41:24I'm too weak for my chemo session.
41:30Cancer or not, I'm done letting Valerie push me around.
41:34This ends now.
41:39This bottom feeder just won't give up.
41:42Someone's bold.
41:43You know, ever since you got the role of Juliet, you have been an absolute parasite to me and to
41:48Mason.
41:49So I think it is my civil duty to bring you down.
41:52Isn't that right girls?
41:54It's funny how loud you are for a girl who's so wrong.
41:59Excuse me?
42:00I run this school loser.
42:02That's what happens when you're at the top of the food chain.
42:05You know everything that is going on around here.
42:07Really?
42:08Because from where I'm standing, you just look like a little girl who's begging for attention.
42:13And throwing a tantrum when she doesn't get the toys she wants.
42:19Tell me girls, is it possible to lead the Autumn Showcase with a broken leg?
42:31Don't be a psycho, Valerie.
42:34Are you gonna stop me?
42:39You should have backed out when I asked you nicely, Penny.
42:47What are you doing?
42:49Reminding you of your place.
42:54Oh my god!
42:55I should have known that the fake girl would have fake hair!
42:59Oh Penny, you continue to impress me.
43:03Look girls, the star of the Autumn Showcase is wearing the fakest wig I have ever seen in my entire
43:09life.
43:10Is that the one that you use for your night job?
43:13Stop.
43:14It's not what you think.
43:17Let's get a closer look, shall we?
43:20What in the hell is going on over here?
43:27Coach!
43:28I was just telling Penny that she needs to take her hood down.
43:31It's against the dress code, as you know, of course.
43:35She's right. Take it off.
43:49Alright ladies, back to practice.
43:52Now.
43:53Where were we?
43:54Oh right.
43:55The hooker wig.
43:58Don't touch her!
44:12Mason!
44:14What are you doing here?
44:15Okay.
44:22You have got to be kidding me.
44:24Her?
44:24Keep pushing, Val.
44:26You're seriously going to choose this frithy-haired, friendless freak over me?
44:29You try so hard to matter, Valerie.
44:32Penelope does it without even trying.
44:33You all bully her because she makes you feel small?
44:35That's your fault.
44:36It's not hers.
44:37You're really that pathetic to make fun of someone who's only ever been nice to you?
44:40We've never wanted to bully Penny.
44:42Yeah, Valerie lied to us.
44:43She forced us.
44:44Shut up!
44:47Mason.
44:48Baby.
44:49Without me, you're nothing.
44:50I make you valuable, okay?
44:52Not her.
44:53Me.
44:54Sound familiar?
44:55Is that what she says to you guys?
44:56That you'd be nothing without her?
44:58That's how she gets you to do her dirty work, huh?
45:02Hired of being used?
45:06Guys.
45:07No.
45:08No.
45:09Get her.
45:10No!
45:10No!
45:11No!
45:11No!
45:12No!
45:12No!
45:13End of here.
45:13Enjoy it while it lasts, Penny.
45:15But Mason's always been mine.
45:17And I will remind you both why.
45:19In the end, he will always pick me.
45:27why didn't you call me i could have protected you i don't want you to keep protecting me

50:17But like hell am I going to let that nobody have you instead?
50:28Oh, please tell me that's not...
50:30Principal Miller, they're in there.
50:33I'll show you.
50:34Valerie, I do not need to see my student naked.
50:42Son, Valerie here says you have a girl in there with you.
50:45Is that true?
50:48No, sir.
50:49Valerie here actually thought it would be a good idea
50:51to try to get in the shower with me.
50:54Just imagine if I did what she did.
50:57Trusting you'll handle this the same way you would
50:58if I was the one crossing that line.
51:00Oh, well, Valerie,
51:03you're off the cheer team, that's for sure.
51:08And I think some serious plaintiff duty
51:10will help you understand the weight of your choices.
51:13What?
51:14No.
51:15Sorry about that, Mason.
51:17I'll make sure Ms. Stein receives the necessary punishment.
51:23Principal Mallory, please, no shit's in there!
51:44Can you poke it down?
51:52So, um...
51:54About what you were saying earlier...
51:58You're moving in with me?
52:01Um, yeah, you know, I hope that's okay.
52:03My dad's out with some construction done,
52:05so I figured it'd be more fun to stay with you
52:07than an hotel room with him.
52:11Um, yeah, sure.
52:14I like having you around.
52:17Let's go dry off.
52:26I want all of it spotless, you hear me?
52:28Like I could eat off it.
52:39Watch your back, Penny.
52:40You've got no idea how far I'm willing to go
52:43to make your life a living hell.
52:50Somebody better tell my dad that I'm here
52:52so you incompetent people stop wasting my time!
52:59Um, I'm here for Dr. Stein.
53:02No, no, no.
53:03Okay, thank you.
53:04Okay.
53:06Hey, Penny, how are you?
53:07I'm okay, Holly.
53:10Wait, why is she talking to my dad?
53:14He's literally an oncologist that can't be right.
53:20I have been losing a lot of hair, so...
53:24I knew it!
53:25The freak has cancer!
53:28We're gonna get the hair back because...
53:30This just got a whole lot more interesting.
53:36Alright, you got this.
53:38Thanks.
53:39You're welcome, Penny.
53:41You have a good rest of your day, okay?
53:45Valerie, what are you doing here?
53:47Dad, I came with my friend Penny.
53:49She's really sick, isn't she?
53:51Can you tell me exactly what's going on?
53:54You know that I can't talk about a patient, Val.
53:59But I just need you to be kind to Penny, okay?
54:04I don't think that she has long.
54:20Start counting your days, Penny.
54:22I'm gonna get you even before the cancer does.
54:25That role is mine.
54:26And Mason is mine.
54:39What happened to studying?
54:41It's hard to study when you breathe like a leaf blower.
54:46Shut it!
54:48Hey, Mason.
55:01I love the ice.
55:07Hey, what's this?
55:10Shit.
55:11Is that my diagnosis paper?
55:16Um, it's called none of your business.
55:21Come on, let me see it.
55:22It looks fun.
55:24It's my bucket list.
55:28It's so silly about him checking the bucket list.
55:30We're 18.
55:31We've got long lives ahead of us.
55:33Maybe for you, Mason.
55:35But not for me.
55:41All right, look.
55:42I'm sorry.
55:45I haven't done a lot of these things either, actually.
55:47Maybe we could do some of them together.
55:56I don't think I've felt this happy in a long time.
56:02Every second with Mason feels like a dream.
56:06One of those perfect dreams you never want to wake up from.
56:11I just wish I could stay in this moment forever.
56:14That I could...
56:17be with him forever.
56:19Forever.
56:29I know my time's running out.
56:31But if this is all I get...
56:33Cheers.
56:35I'm glad it's with him.
56:45For all of this.
56:47It means everything to me.
56:50Anything for you, Penelope.
56:52Always.
56:55Hey, we only got two left.
56:58You think you can handle it?
57:00I was born for this.
57:04I gotta do something real quick.
57:05But meet me back here before midnight, okay?
57:07I'm gonna make sure you get that wish on a shooting star.
57:18I'm gonna do it.
57:18I'm going to finally tell Mason how I feel.
57:21And when I see that shooting star tonight,
57:23I'll wish to beat this cancer.
57:25To live.
57:26To be with him.
57:27So we can finally be happy.
57:29Together.
57:45I'm gonna go grab my keys, okay?
57:50I'll be right back.
57:58I'm gonna go grab my keys, okay?
58:03It's been a half hour.
58:05Where is she?
58:09Your call has been forwarded to voicemail.
58:12The person you're talking...
58:13That's true.
58:14I'm gonna go grab this for one.
