--Cafeteria--
Nat and Tootie: (studying at a table)
Mrs. G: (Figuring out the next week's lunch and dinner menu)
Blair: (walks in from the kitchen) had jo gotten back from town yet?!? (fiddling with her fingers)
Mrs. G: Nope, she only left a half hour ago..
Nat: why do you want her back here anyways? All's you two do is fight!
Tootie: yea!
Blair: Well, just tell her I'm in the room when she comes back! (goes to leave)
Jo: (walks in with a paper bag) You wouldn't believe how cold it is out there! (takes coat off and sets the bag on the table where nat and tootie are) I almost froze my butt off! (looks at blair in a "you better be happy" way)
Tootie: (grabs the bag and goes to open it becuase she's nosey)
Jo: (slaps tootie's hand and grabs the bag)
Tootie: jeez jo!
Jo: you don't just go snooping through other people's things ya know!
Tootie: well SOORRY! (says all snotty)
Jo: You should be!
Blair: Well thank God you're back jo!
Jo: Why? (know's why but is tryign to make it seem less suspicious)
Blair: I need your help with socialogy! (grab's jo's hand and pulls her into the kitchen) NOW!
Nat: I wonder what that was all about!
Tootie: Whatever it was... i betchya it had somethign to do with whatever's inside that paper bag!
Mrs. G: (looks up from writing and slides her glasses off) Girls, Jo and Blair obviously didn't wnat you to know about it... just leave them alone..
Tootie: (looks at Nat)

--Bathroom upstairs--
Blair and Jo: (walk in with the back and Blair locks the door)
Blair: Thank you soooo much jo! I know we never were the best of friends.. but right now you are hte closest thing to a friend i have!
Jo: yea... yea.. (takes a box out of the bag and it's a pregnancy test) (**this is probably where the audience would gasp**)
Just... find out if you are or not!! (hands blair hte box)
Blair: (opens the box and takes out directions along with a stick and hands hte directions to Jo)
Jo: (sighs) jeez... (looks at the directions)
Blair: What am i supposed to do with this?!?! (holds up the stick)
Jo: oh... that's what you pee on! (sarcasticly rude)
Blair: (disgusted look on her face) That's wht i gotta do!?!?
Jo: (smiles) if you wanna know about the kid before he's two! (continues looking at the directions)
Blair: well... either get out or turn around...
Jo: wait! (looking at the directions) how late are you?
Blair: (hold's out finger's while counting) umm.. 8 days...
Jo: Okay, it says here you have to wait a week after you're late to take the test so you're all good...
Blair: (stands there awkwardly looking at jo)
Jo: well.... dive in!!
Blair: (looks at her in anger)
Jo: Or don't...
*knock at the door*
Blair: (hides the stick and such behind her back) Who is it!?!?
Tootie: It's Tootie!
Nat: And nat!
Blair: (turns to Jo and whispers) Make them leave!
Jo: (sighs) Go away!!
Nat: Jo?? Are you AND Blair in there?!!?
Jo: Yes... now beat it!!
Tootie: Since when did we go on the buddy system!?!?
Blair: Will you kock it off! We're just talking...
Tootie: In the bathroom??
Jo: Yes!! Now shut up and go away!
Nat: Let us in! (pounds on teh door again)
Jo: (looks at blair)
Blair: You won't leave us alone until we let you in will you??
Tootie: nope! now let me in!
Blair: fine... (doesn't realize that the box is still sitting on the counter)
Jo: (goes to the door and opens it)
Nat: (walks in) hey, what's really going on!?!?
Jo: (shuts the door and locks it again) Will you guys shut up before mrs. g hears you?
Blair: exactly! we don't need her to get involved with this!
Tootie: (nieve as usualy) with what?!!?
Nat: (see's the box on the counter and picks it up) with one of them being pregnant!
Tootie: (shocked) Nat what are you talk-- (see's the box in nat's hand) oooooooohhhh... there's gonna be touuuubble!
Blair: It's me Nat... (puts the stick thing on the counter) and now that you know... i better not hear it from anybody else... (looks at tootie) understood TOOTIE!
Tootie: what are you looking at me for!!!!
Jo: Oh common tootie! you spread gossip faster than cars on the highway!
Tootie: well i wouldn't spread this kind of gossip!! (looks at Blair) I promise!!!
Nat: But... Blair i thought you were as pure as the white snow!
Jo: the snow that a dog peed on!!!
Blair: JO!! (angry) Nat... that's not the point right now...
Nat: Well, if you woulda stayed on the clean snow do you think you'd be in this bathroom right now? (kinda shouts)
Blair: Nat.. will you shut up! I don't want Mrs. Garrett to suspect something!!! (angry)
*Another knock at the door*
Jo: Speak of the devil!
Blair: (picks up the everythign and tries to shove it in the box and then throw's the box at jo)
Jo: I don't wanna be caught with it!! (throw's it to Nat)
Nat: I don't think so... Tootie! (throw's it to Tootie)
Tootie: It's Blair's mistake!! (throw's it to Blair)
Blair: my god you guys!! (puts it behind her back)
Tootie: (panics) Who is it??
Mrs. G: Mrs. Garrett! Who's all in there?? (heard them rustling around)
Tootie: Me, Nat... (looks at Blair and Jo) Blair... and Jo...
Mrs. G: what's going on in there? (tries to open the door) And why is the door locked?
Nat: (unlocks the door and let's her in)
Blair: (still hiding the box)
Mrs. G: (comes in) ok girls, what's going on?? (very suspicious)
Blair: Nothing!!!
Mrs. G: (looks at each of the girls and then notices that Blair is hiding somethign behind her back) So, what are you hiding?
Blair: what?? (kinda looks at her back) Oh... nothing...
Mrs. G: Blair... whatever it is, you know you can come to me! (sounds sympathetic)
Tootie: (mumbles) No she can't...
Nat: (hits her with her elbow)
Mrs. G: (turns around to look at Tootie) what's that supposed to mean?
Tootie: umm... (thinks of an excuse) It means that you would probably turn hell loose once you found out!
Mrs. G: excuse me?! (surprised that Tootie swore)
Tootie: oh... worse words will be comming from your mouth after you find out!!
Mrs. G: Find out what?!!?
Blair: why don't you just tell her Tootie.. you seem to be SOOO good at it!! (is angry and slams the box down on the counter)
Mrs. G: (quickly looks at the counter to see what she set down) Tell me what? (eye's bulge and she turns back to the box on the counter)
Blair: Now Mrs. Garrett don't get upset... I--
Mrs. G: (picks the box up and looks at it knowing it's a home pregnancy test and starts to stutter out words) is this for you?
Blair: (know's she's gonna get it now) well, yes...
Mrs. G: How could you!! (says in an angry, quiet, stern voice)
Blair: Calm down mrs. garrett!!
Mrs. G: I don't think so!!! (loud)
Blair: It's ok....
Mrs. G: Blair, we talked about sex before...
Blair: yes...
Mrs. G: and I always thought you knew that high school was such a young age to start!!
Blair: yes but--
Mrs. G: --But what!!! (angrily shocked)
Blair: but I am old enough to make my own decisions...
Tootie: well i think this is one of the bad ones!
Mrs. G: (turns to look at tootie) Tootie.. this is not the time nor the place to be judging other people's AWFUL mistakes...
Blair: just... ugh (turns back to mrs. g)
Jo: (tries to get everythign under control) Maybe everyone's arguing over nothing... why don't we just let her take the test!! (tries to shew everyone out)
Nat and Tootie: (leave)
Mrs. G: (just stands there angry, confused, and upset by everything)
Jo: Common Mrs. G! (tries to get her to leave) Everythign will work out...
Mrs. G: (leaves with the box in her hand and is still in shock)
Jo: (tries to grab the box out of her hand but her grip is so strong) Mrs. G!!!!
Mrs. G: Oh... (realizes and then let's go)
Jo: (throw's the box at Blair) Good Luck! (turns to leave)
Blair: Thanks... (smiles) Jo!
Jo: (turns back around) huh??
Blair: (hugs Jo)
Jo: don't get me all wishy washy now!!
Blair: (backs up) sorry...
Jo: Look... everythign will be okay, no matter what happens! And don't listen to Mrs. Garrett! She don't know crap! Hey, if it were me, i woulda succummed the peer pressure and slept with him too... no big deal! Teenager's make stupid mistakes and we eventually get smarter! just start listenign to your head instead of your heart!!! (leaves and shuts the door)
Blair: (takes the stuff back out of the box and reads the directions again)

(here's what i have typed so far... enjoy!!)

MrsGarrettRocksMySocks · 03-05-2002, 06:16 PM

okay, Sar asked me to post this for her!!!

--Girls' Bedroom--
Jo, Nat, and Tootie: (walk in)
Nat: I cannot believe this happened to one of us!!
Jo: I can't believe Mrs. G didn't whip out a gun and blow Blair to kingdom come!
Tootie: I know! I thought that she would have killed any of us for anythign hinting to the possiblity of us
having sex.. but to be pregnant and no lip from mrs. g!
Nat: it's a mixed blessing!
Tootie: no kidding!
Jo: common guys! Maybe Mrs. G really does understand!!
Nat: yea.. but why?
Jo: Maybe.... i dunno.. just leave them alone and let em work it out!
Nat: Maybe your right...

--Mrs. G's Bedroom--
Mrs. G: (sitting there)
*knock at the door*
Mrs. G: who is it?
Nat: Natalie and Tootie!
Tootie: Can we come in?
Mrs. G: yea...
Nat and Tootie: (walk in)
Nat: are you sure your ok?
Mrs. G: (gets up and walks to her desk) of course.. (starts to sort through everything)
Tootie: (kinda weird look on her face) Maybe not...
Mrs. G: Blair already, having to, told me that she might be pregnant... and now it's my job to try and
comfort her and help her tell her parents.. (turns around) right?
Nat: well... it'd be nice..
Tootie: She needs your right now... you do know that right?
Mrs. G: I thought you girls were all such good kids, never the type to become drug addicts, or kids who go
out and drink every weekend, never to have sex too early, always good at school...
Nat: Mrs. Garrett we are!
Mrs. G: The things i've seen you girls get your self into haven't shocked me as much as this... (turns back
around)
Nat: but wait a second, you've seen other girl's at this school pregnant... and you can help them! Blair
needs you right now... deal with her feelings and not her conditions!!
Mrs. G: (thinks about it and then looks at Nat) since when did the tables turn and you start giving me
advice?? (smiles at her)
Nat: since we started caring about you more than as our slave driver!! (smiles)
Mrs. G: Thanks... (sarcasticly)

--Hallway--
Blair: (walks out of the bathroom)
Mrs. G: (walks into the hall from her bedroom)
Blair: Well, we'll know in 20 minutes...
Mrs. G: (calm) We'll hope for the best...
Nat and Tootie: (hear talkign and come running into the hallway and mob blair) So are you!?!?
Blair: Calm down guys... we have to wait 20 minutes! (goes into their bedroom)
Nat: oh... (looks at tootie) yea! don't you know you gotta wait 20 minutes!! Sheesh! (follow's Blair)
Tootie: oh sure! Blame it all on me!!! (follow's nat)
Jo: (sitting on her bed looking at a magazine and looks up at mrs. g walking in and kinda burries her head
into the magazine in fear that mrs. g's gonna start to scream)
Blair: (sits at her bed)
Nat and Tootie: (sitting at the desk/table in their room)
Mrs. G: (stands by the door but keeps looking at Blair)
Nat: soo...
Tootie: (jumps in) what are you gonna do if it's positive?
Blair: well... i counted on a calendar, if this is for real.. i'm due in february.
Mrs. G: (worried look on face)
Blair: so I would probably only go to school for the first sememster and then try to keep up for the second
semester so i can graduate (realizes that she may not be able to graduate on time) ohhh... myy...
(stumbles her words in shock becuase she just realized this)
Jo: (looks at mrs. g hoping she'll at least sit by blair or somethign)
Mrs. G: (looks at jo and sees her look and then goes and sits by blair and puts her arm around her and
pats her back) You'd be able to do it... you're good at keeping up with your homework! (let's a smile out)
Blair: (looks at mrs. garrett and for some reason just starts to cry) Mrs. Garrett!! (hugs her in a big "I feel
like nothings wrong becuase of you" and then backs up) I'm too young for this!
Jo: Hey... raising a kid won't be that bad! you'll be young enough to chase after it with a dyper!! (jokingly)
Nat: yea! You'll understand them better becuase you'll have been tehre sooner than if you had it when you
were 30!
Tootie: You can play sports with the kid, go camping, play games, and not even be tired!
Jo: It'll be like babysitting!! (realizes) only.. the kid will never go home...
Mrs. G: Girls... she's still too young becuase she'll have to handle the rest of high school, college, finding a
job, common!! She couldn't possibly go through childbirth when she's physically not ready... (looks at blair
disappointingly)
Blair: (looks at mrs. g in a sarcastic "thanks" way)
Mrs. G: Well, face it Blair! You're 17!
Blair: I know! How can i be responsible for another life? I'm not even responsible enough for my own life!
Jo: We all know that one Blair!
Mrs. G: Well, let me ask you this. Why are you responsible enough for sex but not for a baby?
Blair: I dunno...
Nat: ooohhh... good point Mrs. Garrett! (kind of sarcastic)
Mrs. G: (looks at Nat and then back at Blair and then stands up) No! this can't be happening...
Jo: Oh yea Mrs. G... we forgot to tell you (Pauses) April Fools! (jokes to try and bring up the mood)
Mrs. G: (looks at jo in anger)
Blair: (stands up) Everyone stop!! So i.... (can't even say sex) You can't go back and change that... it
happened! And i'd be grateful if you can just accept what is happening and not all defensive over it! I'm not a
little girl anymore! I need my space! Just... give me my space and let me grow up!
Mrs. G: I'm sorry Blair... but i obviously did give you your space and let you grow up... (says to self) too
fast!
Blair: Well it's not like you were there cheering me on!!! (rolls eyes) god! I do have a mind of my own you
know! (getting angry and startign to yell)
Mrs. G: I know that..
Jo: If all of this is causing you such stress why don't you just get an abortion?!?!
Mrs. G: (doesn't agree with the whoel abortion thing and her eyes widen to the thought that jo even
suggested it)
Tootie: Jo!! that's wrong!
Nat: exactly!! To kill another human being! common jo!!
Jo: Well the way i see it, there are 2 times when it is absolutely okay to get an abortion...
Tootie: when's that?
Jo: If you were raped and if you are still in high school!
Nat: That's still wrong!
Jo: Think what you want.. but it would still be up to Blair!
Blair: I'd never have an abortion Jo... (saddened at the thought)
Jo: Fine... it's your kid.. it's your life...
Mrs. G: well, i don't think that abortion is the answer at all! That's just tryign to NOT deal with your
decisions and actions in life!
Blair: Can i ask you something?
Mrs. G: yes...
Blair: Why are you so mad at me?
Mrs. G: (sits next to Blair) well... becuase... you're 17... don't you think 20 or younger is young to have a
kid?? (sympathetic)
Blair: Well yes, what i meant is... you deal with other girls who've been pregnant... Remember Casey! She
was 15!!! I'm 17, ALMOST 18!
Mrs. G: My gosh was that an awful sight... but Blair... (gets up and kind of walks away)
Blair: what?
Mrs. G: (turns around and looks at Blair) I've been around you girls for 3 years... I'd say we've gotten pretty
close.. right?
Tootie: Of course! (smiles)
Nat: yea... you're definately more than a best friend...
Mrs. G: (looks down at the floor) The other girls who came to me Blair... their just students that i may have
talked with once a day since i came to eastland... I don't think of them like daughters, or love them like a
daughter... as i do to you girls... (sits back down by blair and focuses on all of them) When i see of you in a
tough position it's hard to stand by and watch it all Happen!
Blair: (looks at Mrs. G) But I'm a horrible daughter!
Jo: She's got a point there!!
Nat: Well, ok.. let me add in my two sense too you know! What's the big deal about Blair having sex...
She's not the only one on campus.. nor the only one in this world!
Mrs. G: I know... that's why, at least i try, to teach you about having sex to young... look where it gets you!
And don't tell me that it was all the guy's fault.. there's a partnership in it you know... and it's such a
personal, private moment between two people who love eachother that it shouldn't be shared just out of pure
curiosity or becuase everyone else say's there doing it.
Nat: but there is a lot of pressure from everybody... (looking away)
Mrs. G: There's a lot of pressure to do drugs, to smoke ciggarretts, to drink... you name it! And you don't
do drugs or smoke do you?
Nat: no... but that's not the same... look, i'm not trying to stick up for what Blair got herself into... but it's
the whole general concept. In a few weeks, months, years, or lifetimes away from now, one of us could be
in teh same position Blair is in... We may seem like we'd never do something... but we do! we have! and we
probably will!
Mrs. G: (picking a fight with nat basically) so you're telling me that you either have, do, or will do drugs?
Nat: i didn't say that..... (mutters to self)
Jo: Mrs. G! we've all tried it!
Mrs. G: Jo.. i don't want to get into this right now... Besi--- what do you mean you've all tried it!
Jo: Hey! You said you don't want to get into this right now...
Mrs. G: (sighs and shuts eyes) Perhaps we should stop arguing until this is all worked out... (sits back
down on the bed)
Blair: sounds good to me!

FOL85NatandMrsGRock · 03-06-2002, 09:43 PM

*after a long pause of awkward silence*
Blair: ugh... I feel sick to my stomach!
Jo: But it's not even the morning! (jokes)
Blair: (looks at jo) That's not what i meant.. i mean that i'm so worried that it's got me feeling sick! Morron!
Jo: Hey! I may be stupid, but I ain't no morron!
Blair: Well, if it weren't for the stupid morron i don't think that Nat, Tootie, OR Mrs. Garrett would have found out!
Jo: Hey! Who went into town and got you that test! I embarrassed myself for you!!
Blair: Jo!! Embarrassed!!! (sarcastic) I never thought it would finally happen! (rolls eyes)
Jo: hey! i can get embarrassed! I went to get the box off the shelf and some old lady sat there and explained all the different kinds and what is the BEST for teens! THEN! this not guy.. i'm talking HOT... checked me out! He probably thought i was a slut! (getting upset)
Blair: what are you implying jo!! (yelling)
Jo: That you shouldn't go around and f--
Mrs. G: JO!!! (stops before she gets more than the fff out)
Tootie: Will you guys cool it!! (tryign to make peace)
Jo: Well if it weren't for you and Nat sticking your nose in where it doesn't belong mrs. g woulda never gotten involved!!!
Nat: Don't blame Tootie!
Tootie: Yea!!
Nat: She can't help it that she's a nosey gossip!
Tootie: Yea!! (realizes she was just insulted) HEY!!
Jo: Nat's right!!! This will prolly be all over school by 7 am tomorrow!!!
Tootie: That's not fair! And besides, I already promised Blair with all of my heart that i wouldn't gossip about somethign like this!
Blair: Jo, leave Tootie alone! We all know mrs. garrett woulda weaseled her way in some how!
Mrs. G: I don't think it's your place to be trash talking me! I still don't understand why you're so angry about me finding out!
Blair: because now you think that i'm some degrading tramp who doesn't know how to keep her feelings under control. I'm sure you are looking at me lower than you ever did becuase of it... I don't like being looked upon as that!
Mrs. G: I don't look upon you differently than i ever did... just, the same Blair... a normal, good kid--
Blair: Normal!!! I'm too beautiful to be normal!!!
Mrs. G: Beautiful, talented...
Blair: (smiles that "I Know!" smile)
Mrs. G: see... you're fine!!
Tootie: Look, I hate to butt into everythign while we discuss Blair's "problem" but, the 20 minutes are up!
Blair: what?? (looks over at everyone in horror)
Nat: well...
Blair: Well what? (stands there)
Nat: GO FIND OUT!!!!!
Blair: I can't...
Mrs. G: Go Blair!! Just... go!! (smiles)
Blair: (sighs) ok guys... let's go...

--Hallway--
Everyone: (walks into the hallway)
Blair: (opens the bathroom door and just stands there) I'm too nervous... I mean, what if it's positive? What will my mother say!? What will my father say!!?? What will happen to me!!!??? What if--
Nat: What if it's negative???
Blair: (horrid look on her face)
Tootie: (sighs and moves forward) I'll do it!! (walks into the bathroom)
Everyone: (walk into the bathroom after Tootie)
Jo: (picks up te box and looks at it) Ok Tootie.. white is no and pink is yes
Tootie: (walks somewhat off screen to look)
Nat: (hangs on Blair's shoulder)
Blair: (turns around to look at Nat, smiles and then puts her hand up onto nat)
Tootie: It's....
Blair: don't tell me!!! (screams)
Mrs. G: oh common!!! (pushes her way through the girls and meets tootie who walks back onto the screen and looks at it and somehwat smiles)
Nat: (points at mrs. g) Oh!! I smile! that's good news...
Tootie: Blair... are you ready for what the future holds?
Blair: NO!!!!
Tootie: Too bad.. You'll have to tell Brad to prepare for...
Blair: (face starts to sadden)
Tootie: NO Baby!!! (smiles)
Blair: (shocked)
Tootie: (kinda jumping and shows her) it's white!
Blair: White?!?! (can't believe it) White!!! (big smile) WHITE!!!
Jo: Yes!! Will you shut up!!
Mrs. G: (goes to Blair, who is still in shock, and hugs her) Thank God!
Blair: Say that again!!
Mrs. G: Thank God!! (looks up)
Nat and Tootie: (hug Blair)
Blair: (smiles and hugs back and hten looks over at jo staring and smiling at them) common jo! (holds arms out waiting for her to join the hug)
Jo: (smile fades) oh no.. i don't do group hugs!
Blair: Get your butt over here now!! (sternly smiles)
Jo: ohh.. alright!! (sighs and goes into the hug and then looks up at Blair) I either must be happy for you or there are two sides to Blair... one that is god awful annoying and one that is pretty cool...
Blair: There are two sides! But they are NOT annoying! (jokes)
Blair, Jo, Nat, and Tootie: (hug)
Mrs. G: (smiles at how the girls were all there for her)
Blair: Thank you! I couldn't have done it without all of you! (looks at jo) Even you jo! (surprised at that remark)
Jo: I knew i'd come in handy some day! (smiles)
Mrs. G: Blair... what do you plan to tell Brad?
Blair: You mean.. i gotta tell him..??
Mrs. G: Oh.. i think that would be a good idea!! (smiles halfly at Blair *i can imagine her exact smile.. sorry if you can't*)
Blair: well, I know i was gonna tell him that i don't plan on going to bed with any guy until i am truley ready... this here just proved that i really was only doing it half out of curiosity and half out of pressure (looks at mrs. g cuz those were reasons mrs. g gave earlier)
Mrs. G: (smiles at Blair remembering what she said earlier)
Blair: But... please, don't give me more space. I may need to grow up, and i may remember what is right and wrong... but i always need a reminder! (smiles at mrs. g)
Mrs. G: (puts arms out waiting for a hug)
Blair: of course!! (smiles and hugs her)
Nat: just outa curiosity, what would you have named it?
Blair: umm... I was thinking about Dillon if it was a boy and perhaps Katie if it was a girl...
Tootie: aww... You coulda named it Jo if it was a biker girl!
Jo: Alright.. enough with the Jo cracks!!!
Everyone except Jo: (laugh)

--The End--

Okay, I promised to explain my reason for writing this script, and here it is. Too many teenagers per year have a scare of being pregnant. It is both emotional to the person, the guilty guy, friends, and if the family knows about the scare, then the family too. We all know that this woudl NEVER have been a real Facts of Life episode (and you know that is mearly my goal in most scripts) but it is always interesting to see how we interpret character's handling it. Now, most recently over 3 friends that i am not EXTREMELY close to, but i talk to them a lot, have had pregnancy scares. All of them turned to have a false alarm, but that's too much pressure for teenager's to deal with. I always feel that sex too early in life may be GREAT during the time, but awful in the aftertakes. Also, i don't like the way that most guys don't ever take responsibility for somethign that they helped to create... in my opinoin.. it is BOTH the girl and the guy's fault. All of my friends who had a scare were dumped by their boyfriend after they had a scare for fear of actually becomming a father. I did leave out the end to my script becuase i didn't have a better way to write it, but the continuation was Blair getting dumped by Brad. Let this be a lesson to all of the girls out there having sex. It will never have a good outcome.. even if it seems like the greatest thign in teh entire world while it's happening.. wait until you are positive that you'll be with that person forever! that's when it is the best thing in the world!! And now that I am done with my Mrs. Garrett talk i'd like to thank you all for reading my script that has been WELL overdue!

Here it is... Warning Label: Please... only 13 years of age or older read this for the text displayed in this script may be somewhat shocking or unreal to the show The Facts of Life. I have explained my doing for this script at the end! Do enjoy! A Mixed Blessing - Season 3 --Cafeteria-- Nat and Tootie: (studying at a table) Mrs. G: (Figuring out the next week's lunch and dinner menu) Blair: (walks in from the kitchen) had jo gotten back from town yet?!? (fiddling with her fingers) Mrs. G: Nope, she only left a half hour ago.. Nat: why do you want her back here anyways? All's you two do is fight! Tootie: yea! Blair: Well, just tell her I'm in the room when she comes back! (goes to leave) Jo: (walks in with a paper bag) You wouldn't believe how cold it is out there! (takes coat off and sets the bag on the table where nat and tootie are) I almost froze my butt off! (looks at blair in a "you better be happy" way) Tootie: (grabs the bag and goes to open it becuase she's nosey) Jo: (slaps tootie's hand and grabs the bag) Tootie: jeez jo! Jo: you don't just go snooping through other people's things ya know! Tootie: well SOORRY! (says all snotty) Jo: You should be! Blair: Well thank God you're back jo! Jo: Why? (know's why but is tryign to make it seem less suspicious) Blair: I need your help with socialogy! (grab's jo's hand and pulls her into the kitchen) NOW! Nat: I wonder what that was all about! Tootie: Whatever it was... i betchya it had somethign to do with whatever's inside that paper bag! Mrs. G: (looks up from writing and slides her glasses off) Girls, Jo and Blair obviously didn't wnat you to know about it... just leave them alone.. Tootie: (looks at Nat) --Bathroom upstairs-- Blair and Jo: (walk in with the back and Blair locks the door) Blair: Thank you soooo much jo! I know we never were the best of friends.. but right now you are hte closest thing to a friend i have! Jo: yea... yea.. (takes a box out of the bag and it's a pregnancy test) (this is probably where the audience would gasp) Just... find out if you are or not!! (hands blair hte box) Blair: (opens the box and takes out directions along with a stick and hands hte directions to Jo) Jo: (sighs) jeez... (looks at the directions) Blair: What am i supposed to do with this?!?! (holds up the stick) Jo: oh... that's what you pee on! (sarcasticly rude) Blair: (disgusted look on her face) That's wht i gotta do!?!? Jo: (smiles) if you wanna know about the kid before he's two! (continues looking at the directions) Blair: well... either get out or turn around... Jo: wait! (looking at the directions) how late are you? Blair: (hold's out finger's while counting) umm.. 8 days... Jo: Okay, it says here you have to wait a week after you're late to take the test so you're all good... Blair: (stands there awkwardly looking at jo) Jo: well.... dive in!! Blair: (looks at her in anger) Jo: Or don't... knock at the door Blair: (hides the stick and such behind her back) Who is it!?!? Tootie: It's Tootie! Nat: And nat! Blair: (turns to Jo and whispers) Make them leave! Jo: (sighs) Go away!! Nat: Jo?? Are you AND Blair in there?!!? Jo: Yes... now beat it!! Tootie: Since when did we go on the buddy system!?!? Blair: Will you kock it off! We're just talking... Tootie: In the bathroom?? Jo: Yes!! Now shut up and go away! Nat: Let us in! (pounds on teh door again) Jo: (looks at blair) Blair: You won't leave us alone until we let you in will you?? Tootie: nope! now let me in! Blair: fine... (doesn't realize that the box is still sitting on the counter) Jo: (goes to the door and opens it) Nat: (walks in) hey, what's really going on!?!? Jo: (shuts the door and locks it again) Will you guys shut up before mrs. g hears you? Blair: exactly! we don't need her to get involved with this! Tootie: (nieve as usualy) with what?!!? Nat: (see's the box on the counter and picks it up) with one of them being pregnant! Tootie: (shocked) Nat what are you talk-- (see's the box in nat's hand) oooooooohhhh... there's gonna be touuuubble! Blair: It's me Nat... (puts the stick thing on the counter) and now that you know... i better not hear it from anybody else... (looks at tootie) understood TOOTIE! Tootie: what are you looking at me for!!!! Jo: Oh common tootie! you spread gossip faster than cars on the highway! Tootie: well i wouldn't spread this kind of gossip!! (looks at Blair) I promise!!! Nat: But... Blair i thought you were as pure as the white snow! Jo: the snow that a dog peed on!!! Blair: JO!! (angry) Nat... that's not the point right now... Nat: Well, if you woulda stayed on the clean snow do you think you'd be in this bathroom right now? (kinda shouts) Blair: Nat.. will you shut up! I don't want Mrs. Garrett to suspect something!!! (angry) Another knock at the door Jo: Speak of the devil! Blair: (picks up the everythign and tries to shove it in the box and then throw's the box at jo) Jo: I don't wanna be caught with it!! (throw's it to Nat) Nat: I don't think so... Tootie! (throw's it to Tootie) Tootie: It's Blair's mistake!! (throw's it to Blair) Blair: my god you guys!! (puts it behind her back) Tootie: (panics) Who is it?? Mrs. G: Mrs. Garrett! Who's all in there?? (heard them rustling around) Tootie: Me, Nat... (looks at Blair and Jo) Blair... and Jo... Mrs. G: what's going on in there? (tries to open the door) And why is the door locked? Nat: (unlocks the door and let's her in) Blair: (still hiding the box) Mrs. G: (comes in) ok girls, what's going on?? (very suspicious) Blair: Nothing!!! Mrs. G: (looks at each of the girls and then notices that Blair is hiding somethign behind her back) So, what are you hiding? Blair: what?? (kinda looks at her back) Oh... nothing... Mrs. G: Blair... whatever it is, you know you can come to me! (sounds sympathetic) Tootie: (mumbles) No she can't... Nat: (hits her with her elbow) Mrs. G: (turns around to look at Tootie) what's that supposed to mean? Tootie: umm... (thinks of an excuse) It means that you would probably turn hell loose once you found out! Mrs. G: excuse me?! (surprised that Tootie swore) Tootie: oh... worse words will be comming from your mouth after you find out!! Mrs. G: Find out what?!!? Blair: why don't you just tell her Tootie.. you seem to be SOOO good at it!! (is angry and slams the box down on the counter) Mrs. G: (quickly looks at the counter to see what she set down) Tell me what? (eye's bulge and she turns back to the box on the counter) Blair: Now Mrs. Garrett don't get upset... I-- Mrs. G: (picks the box up and looks at it knowing it's a home pregnancy test and starts to stutter out words) is this for you? Blair: (know's she's gonna get it now) well, yes... Mrs. G: How could you!! (says in an angry, quiet, stern voice) Blair: Calm down mrs. garrett!! Mrs. G: I don't think so!!! (loud) Blair: It's ok.... Mrs. G: Blair, we talked about sex before... Blair: yes... Mrs. G: and I always thought you knew that high school was such a young age to start!! Blair: yes but-- Mrs. G: --But what!!! (angrily shocked) Blair: but I am old enough to make my own decisions... Tootie: well i think this is one of the bad ones! Mrs. G: (turns to look at tootie) Tootie.. this is not the time nor the place to be judging other people's AWFUL mistakes... Blair: just... ugh (turns back to mrs. g) Jo: (tries to get everythign under control) Maybe everyone's arguing over nothing... why don't we just let her take the test!! (tries to shew everyone out) Nat and Tootie: (leave) Mrs. G: (just stands there angry, confused, and upset by everything) Jo: Common Mrs. G! (tries to get her to leave) Everythign will work out... Mrs. G: (leaves with the box in her hand and is still in shock) Jo: (tries to grab the box out of her hand but her grip is so strong) Mrs. G!!!! Mrs. G: Oh... (realizes and then let's go) Jo: (throw's the box at Blair) Good Luck! (turns to leave) Blair: Thanks... (smiles) Jo! Jo: (turns back around) huh?? Blair: (hugs Jo) Jo: don't get me all wishy washy now!! Blair: (backs up) sorry... Jo: Look... everythign will be okay, no matter what happens! And don't listen to Mrs. Garrett! She don't know crap! Hey, if it were me, i woulda succummed the peer pressure and slept with him too... no big deal! Teenager's make stupid mistakes and we eventually get smarter! just start listenign to your head instead of your heart!!! (leaves and shuts the door) Blair: (takes the stuff back out of the box and reads the directions again) (here's what i have typed so far... enjoy!!) ~sarah

Posts: 4,077	okay, Sar asked me to post this for her!!! --Girls' Bedroom-- Jo, Nat, and Tootie: (walk in) Nat: I cannot believe this happened to one of us!! Jo: I can't believe Mrs. G didn't whip out a gun and blow Blair to kingdom come! Tootie: I know! I thought that she would have killed any of us for anythign hinting to the possiblity of us having sex.. but to be pregnant and no lip from mrs. g! Nat: it's a mixed blessing! Tootie: no kidding! Jo: common guys! Maybe Mrs. G really does understand!! Nat: yea.. but why? Jo: Maybe.... i dunno.. just leave them alone and let em work it out! Nat: Maybe your right... --Mrs. G's Bedroom-- Mrs. G: (sitting there) knock at the door Mrs. G: who is it? Nat: Natalie and Tootie! Tootie: Can we come in? Mrs. G: yea... Nat and Tootie: (walk in) Nat: are you sure your ok? Mrs. G: (gets up and walks to her desk) of course.. (starts to sort through everything) Tootie: (kinda weird look on her face) Maybe not... Mrs. G: Blair already, having to, told me that she might be pregnant... and now it's my job to try and comfort her and help her tell her parents.. (turns around) right? Nat: well... it'd be nice.. Tootie: She needs your right now... you do know that right? Mrs. G: I thought you girls were all such good kids, never the type to become drug addicts, or kids who go out and drink every weekend, never to have sex too early, always good at school... Nat: Mrs. Garrett we are! Mrs. G: The things i've seen you girls get your self into haven't shocked me as much as this... (turns back around) Nat: but wait a second, you've seen other girl's at this school pregnant... and you can help them! Blair needs you right now... deal with her feelings and not her conditions!! Mrs. G: (thinks about it and then looks at Nat) since when did the tables turn and you start giving me advice?? (smiles at her) Nat: since we started caring about you more than as our slave driver!! (smiles) Mrs. G: Thanks... (sarcasticly) --Hallway-- Blair: (walks out of the bathroom) Mrs. G: (walks into the hall from her bedroom) Blair: Well, we'll know in 20 minutes... Mrs. G: (calm) We'll hope for the best... Nat and Tootie: (hear talkign and come running into the hallway and mob blair) So are you!?!? Blair: Calm down guys... we have to wait 20 minutes! (goes into their bedroom) Nat: oh... (looks at tootie) yea! don't you know you gotta wait 20 minutes!! Sheesh! (follow's Blair) Tootie: oh sure! Blame it all on me!!! (follow's nat) Jo: (sitting on her bed looking at a magazine and looks up at mrs. g walking in and kinda burries her head into the magazine in fear that mrs. g's gonna start to scream) Blair: (sits at her bed) Nat and Tootie: (sitting at the desk/table in their room) Mrs. G: (stands by the door but keeps looking at Blair) Nat: soo... Tootie: (jumps in) what are you gonna do if it's positive? Blair: well... i counted on a calendar, if this is for real.. i'm due in february. Mrs. G: (worried look on face) Blair: so I would probably only go to school for the first sememster and then try to keep up for the second semester so i can graduate (realizes that she may not be able to graduate on time) ohhh... myy... (stumbles her words in shock becuase she just realized this) Jo: (looks at mrs. g hoping she'll at least sit by blair or somethign) Mrs. G: (looks at jo and sees her look and then goes and sits by blair and puts her arm around her and pats her back) You'd be able to do it... you're good at keeping up with your homework! (let's a smile out) Blair: (looks at mrs. garrett and for some reason just starts to cry) Mrs. Garrett!! (hugs her in a big "I feel like nothings wrong becuase of you" and then backs up) I'm too young for this! Jo: Hey... raising a kid won't be that bad! you'll be young enough to chase after it with a dyper!! (jokingly) Nat: yea! You'll understand them better becuase you'll have been tehre sooner than if you had it when you were 30! Tootie: You can play sports with the kid, go camping, play games, and not even be tired! Jo: It'll be like babysitting!! (realizes) only.. the kid will never go home... Mrs. G: Girls... she's still too young becuase she'll have to handle the rest of high school, college, finding a job, common!! She couldn't possibly go through childbirth when she's physically not ready... (looks at blair disappointingly) Blair: (looks at mrs. g in a sarcastic "thanks" way) Mrs. G: Well, face it Blair! You're 17! Blair: I know! How can i be responsible for another life? I'm not even responsible enough for my own life! Jo: We all know that one Blair! Mrs. G: Well, let me ask you this. Why are you responsible enough for sex but not for a baby? Blair: I dunno... Nat: ooohhh... good point Mrs. Garrett! (kind of sarcastic) Mrs. G: (looks at Nat and then back at Blair and then stands up) No! this can't be happening... Jo: Oh yea Mrs. G... we forgot to tell you (Pauses) April Fools! (jokes to try and bring up the mood) Mrs. G: (looks at jo in anger) Blair: (stands up) Everyone stop!! So i.... (can't even say sex) You can't go back and change that... it happened! And i'd be grateful if you can just accept what is happening and not all defensive over it! I'm not a little girl anymore! I need my space! Just... give me my space and let me grow up! Mrs. G: I'm sorry Blair... but i obviously did give you your space and let you grow up... (says to self) too fast! Blair: Well it's not like you were there cheering me on!!! (rolls eyes) god! I do have a mind of my own you know! (getting angry and startign to yell) Mrs. G: I know that.. Jo: If all of this is causing you such stress why don't you just get an abortion?!?! Mrs. G: (doesn't agree with the whoel abortion thing and her eyes widen to the thought that jo even suggested it) Tootie: Jo!! that's wrong! Nat: exactly!! To kill another human being! common jo!! Jo: Well the way i see it, there are 2 times when it is absolutely okay to get an abortion... Tootie: when's that? Jo: If you were raped and if you are still in high school! Nat: That's still wrong! Jo: Think what you want.. but it would still be up to Blair! Blair: I'd never have an abortion Jo... (saddened at the thought) Jo: Fine... it's your kid.. it's your life... Mrs. G: well, i don't think that abortion is the answer at all! That's just tryign to NOT deal with your decisions and actions in life! Blair: Can i ask you something? Mrs. G: yes... Blair: Why are you so mad at me? Mrs. G: (sits next to Blair) well... becuase... you're 17... don't you think 20 or younger is young to have a kid?? (sympathetic) Blair: Well yes, what i meant is... you deal with other girls who've been pregnant... Remember Casey! She was 15!!! I'm 17, ALMOST 18! Mrs. G: My gosh was that an awful sight... but Blair... (gets up and kind of walks away) Blair: what? Mrs. G: (turns around and looks at Blair) I've been around you girls for 3 years... I'd say we've gotten pretty close.. right? Tootie: Of course! (smiles) Nat: yea... you're definately more than a best friend... Mrs. G: (looks down at the floor) The other girls who came to me Blair... their just students that i may have talked with once a day since i came to eastland... I don't think of them like daughters, or love them like a daughter... as i do to you girls... (sits back down by blair and focuses on all of them) When i see of you in a tough position it's hard to stand by and watch it all Happen! Blair: (looks at Mrs. G) But I'm a horrible daughter! Jo: She's got a point there!! Nat: Well, ok.. let me add in my two sense too you know! What's the big deal about Blair having sex... She's not the only one on campus.. nor the only one in this world! Mrs. G: I know... that's why, at least i try, to teach you about having sex to young... look where it gets you! And don't tell me that it was all the guy's fault.. there's a partnership in it you know... and it's such a personal, private moment between two people who love eachother that it shouldn't be shared just out of pure curiosity or becuase everyone else say's there doing it. Nat: but there is a lot of pressure from everybody... (looking away) Mrs. G: There's a lot of pressure to do drugs, to smoke ciggarretts, to drink... you name it! And you don't do drugs or smoke do you? Nat: no... but that's not the same... look, i'm not trying to stick up for what Blair got herself into... but it's the whole general concept. In a few weeks, months, years, or lifetimes away from now, one of us could be in teh same position Blair is in... We may seem like we'd never do something... but we do! we have! and we probably will! Mrs. G: (picking a fight with nat basically) so you're telling me that you either have, do, or will do drugs? Nat: i didn't say that..... (mutters to self) Jo: Mrs. G! we've all tried it! Mrs. G: Jo.. i don't want to get into this right now... Besi--- what do you mean you've all tried it! Jo: Hey! You said you don't want to get into this right now... Mrs. G: (sighs and shuts eyes) Perhaps we should stop arguing until this is all worked out... (sits back down on the bed) Blair: sounds good to me!

Posts: 1,770	THE ENDING!!! after a long pause of awkward silence Blair: ugh... I feel sick to my stomach! Jo: But it's not even the morning! (jokes) Blair: (looks at jo) That's not what i meant.. i mean that i'm so worried that it's got me feeling sick! Morron! Jo: Hey! I may be stupid, but I ain't no morron! Blair: Well, if it weren't for the stupid morron i don't think that Nat, Tootie, OR Mrs. Garrett would have found out! Jo: Hey! Who went into town and got you that test! I embarrassed myself for you!! Blair: Jo!! Embarrassed!!! (sarcastic) I never thought it would finally happen! (rolls eyes) Jo: hey! i can get embarrassed! I went to get the box off the shelf and some old lady sat there and explained all the different kinds and what is the BEST for teens! THEN! this not guy.. i'm talking HOT... checked me out! He probably thought i was a slut! (getting upset) Blair: what are you implying jo!! (yelling) Jo: That you shouldn't go around and f-- Mrs. G: JO!!! (stops before she gets more than the fff out) Tootie: Will you guys cool it!! (tryign to make peace) Jo: Well if it weren't for you and Nat sticking your nose in where it doesn't belong mrs. g woulda never gotten involved!!! Nat: Don't blame Tootie! Tootie: Yea!! Nat: She can't help it that she's a nosey gossip! Tootie: Yea!! (realizes she was just insulted) HEY!! Jo: Nat's right!!! This will prolly be all over school by 7 am tomorrow!!! Tootie: That's not fair! And besides, I already promised Blair with all of my heart that i wouldn't gossip about somethign like this! Blair: Jo, leave Tootie alone! We all know mrs. garrett woulda weaseled her way in some how! Mrs. G: I don't think it's your place to be trash talking me! I still don't understand why you're so angry about me finding out! Blair: because now you think that i'm some degrading tramp who doesn't know how to keep her feelings under control. I'm sure you are looking at me lower than you ever did becuase of it... I don't like being looked upon as that! Mrs. G: I don't look upon you differently than i ever did... just, the same Blair... a normal, good kid-- Blair: Normal!!! I'm too beautiful to be normal!!! Mrs. G: Beautiful, talented... Blair: (smiles that "I Know!" smile) Mrs. G: see... you're fine!! Tootie: Look, I hate to butt into everythign while we discuss Blair's "problem" but, the 20 minutes are up! Blair: what?? (looks over at everyone in horror) Nat: well... Blair: Well what? (stands there) Nat: GO FIND OUT!!!!! Blair: I can't... Mrs. G: Go Blair!! Just... go!! (smiles) Blair: (sighs) ok guys... let's go... --Hallway-- Everyone: (walks into the hallway) Blair: (opens the bathroom door and just stands there) I'm too nervous... I mean, what if it's positive? What will my mother say!? What will my father say!!?? What will happen to me!!!??? What if-- Nat: What if it's negative??? Blair: (horrid look on her face) Tootie: (sighs and moves forward) I'll do it!! (walks into the bathroom) Everyone: (walk into the bathroom after Tootie) Jo: (picks up te box and looks at it) Ok Tootie.. white is no and pink is yes Tootie: (walks somewhat off screen to look) Nat: (hangs on Blair's shoulder) Blair: (turns around to look at Nat, smiles and then puts her hand up onto nat) Tootie: It's.... Blair: don't tell me!!! (screams) Mrs. G: oh common!!!

Tootie: Blair... are you ready for what the future holds? Blair: NO!!!! Tootie: Too bad.. You'll have to tell Brad to prepare for... Blair: (face starts to sadden) Tootie: NO Baby!!!

(sighs and goes into the hug and then looks up at Blair) I either must be happy for you or there are two sides to Blair... one that is god awful annoying and one that is pretty cool... Blair: There are two sides! But they are NOT annoying! (jokes) Blair, Jo, Nat, and Tootie: (hug) Mrs. G: (smiles at how the girls were all there for her) Blair: Thank you!

Blair: You mean.. i gotta tell him..?? Mrs. G: Oh.. i think that would be a good idea!! (smiles halfly at Blair i can imagine her exact smile.. sorry if you can't) Blair: well, I know i was gonna tell him that i don't plan on going to bed with any guy until i am truley ready... this here just proved that i really was only doing it half out of curiosity and half out of pressure (looks at mrs. g cuz those were reasons mrs. g gave earlier) Mrs. G: (smiles at Blair remembering what she said earlier) Blair: But... please, don't give me more space. I may need to grow up, and i may remember what is right and wrong... but i always need a reminder! (smiles at mrs. g) Mrs. G: (puts arms out waiting for a hug) Blair: of course!! (smiles and hugs her) Nat: just outa curiosity, what would you have named it? Blair: umm... I was thinking about Dillon if it was a boy and perhaps Katie if it was a girl... Tootie: aww... You coulda named it Jo if it was a biker girl! Jo: Alright.. enough with the Jo cracks!!! Everyone except Jo: (laugh) --The End-- Okay, I promised to explain my reason for writing this script, and here it is. Too many teenagers per year have a scare of being pregnant. It is both emotional to the person, the guilty guy, friends, and if the family knows about the scare, then the family too. We all know that this woudl NEVER have been a real Facts of Life episode (and you know that is mearly my goal in most scripts) but it is always interesting to see how we interpret character's handling it. Now, most recently over 3 friends that i am not EXTREMELY close to, but i talk to them a lot, have had pregnancy scares. All of them turned to have a false alarm, but that's too much pressure for teenager's to deal with. I always feel that sex too early in life may be GREAT during the time, but awful in the aftertakes. Also, i don't like the way that most guys don't ever take responsibility for somethign that they helped to create... in my opinoin.. it is BOTH the girl and the guy's fault. All of my friends who had a scare were dumped by their boyfriend after they had a scare for fear of actually becomming a father. I did leave out the end to my script becuase i didn't have a better way to write it, but the continuation was Blair getting dumped by Brad. Let this be a lesson to all of the girls out there having sex. It will never have a good outcome.. even if it seems like the greatest thign in teh entire world while it's happening.. wait until you are positive that you'll be with that person forever! that's when it is the best thing in the world!! And now that I am done with my Mrs. Garrett talk i'd like to thank you all for reading my script that has been WELL overdue! Toodles!
