"[Shay panting]" " [Shay] How is she beating me?" " [Frankie] We're training, Shay." " There are no winners." " The meet's in two days." "[grunts] Stop stressing." "On race day, you'll crush her." "Or at the very least, she'll blow it. [Chuckles]" "[Armstrong] Nice run, ladies." "Stretch, and we'll talk when everybody gets back." "[Shay panting]" " All right, 23:36." "That deserves a kiss." " [chuckles]" "I'm all sweaty." "Oh, come on." "That doesn't bother me. [Chuckles]" " Okay." "Okay, I gotta stretch." " [chuckles]" "Oh, Shay, you brought your monthly visitor to practice." " How cute." " [Shay] No." " No, no, no, no, no." " [Zig gags] Gross!" " [Tiny] Uh..." " No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no." "[scoffs] Does anybody else smell a butcher shop?" " [students laughing]" " Uh, feel free to hit the showers." "[scoffs] Did you forget to put in a tampon?" "No!" "I must've bled through." "Oh, my God, why isn't there something higher than ultra-absorbent?" "It's not that bad." "I mean, it's bad." "It's just..." "It's not like, Ebola." "Do you think they sell "Sorry for bleeding on you" cards?" "Okay." "First, clean up." "And then maybe offer to dry-clean his pants?" " Where are you going?" " Into hiding." "Forever." "♪ Whatever it takes I know I can make it through ♪" "♪ And if I hold out I know I can make it through ♪" "♪ Be the best, be the best The best that I can be ♪" "♪ Whatever it takes ♪" "♪ I know I can make it I know I can make it through ♪" "[Mr. Perino] The Japanese military used kamikaze attacks, because... defeat or capture was considered worse than death." "[Grace] Which is a hangover from samurais, right?" "Bushido or whatever?" "Okay." "So do suicide bombers, for example, think that they're honorable, like..." "like modern samurai?" "Why would I have the inside scoop on suicide bombers?" "Well, aren't they mostly Muslim?" "Islam does not condone killing." "Well, I don't see any G.I. Joes strapping bombs to their chest." "[Rasha] Instead, they drop them from drones." "And calling suicide bombers Muslim is an insult to Muslims everywhere." "[school bell ringing] [clears throat] A note to leave on." "That was amazing." "It makes me wish we had every class together." "How is everyone so clueless?" " Don't they know how to google?" " [laughs]" "If I had a nickel for every time somebody asked me about that stuff..." "As if wearing a hijab makes you an expert." "So, um, I'll see you at home?" "We got a lot of Friends to binge on." "Friends sounds good, but I feel bad keeping you from your friends." "What if we invited some of them over tonight?" "Oh, people here don't really like '90s sitcoms." "Then we can just hang out." "Who knows, maybe we'll even teach them to google." "[chuckles]" "[sighs] [scoffs] Um, about yesterday, I just wanted to say that I'm..." "Close your eyes." "Got you something." "Go on." "Close 'em." "[chuckles]" "I'm so sorry about your pants." "I can get you new ones if you want." "Don't worry about that, Shay." "It's just pants." "[sighs] Okay, open 'em." "Uh, are... are those wrong?" "'Cause I got you these, too." "Are you trying to embarrass me?" " But Esme said..." " You talked to Esme?" "About my... [whispering] period?" "[sighs] Did I... did I do something wrong?" "You think?" "[sighs]" "Whoa, someone's prepared." "That's what I always liked about you, Shay." "Always willing to go with the flow." " [electronic music playing on phone] - [vehicle crashing on phone]" "So, just to clarify... you guys want funds to produce a play about Degrassi's bus crash?" "[Zoë] Very bold." "Uh, what's the story?" "Uh, we're not sure yet." "Maya's working on it." " Where is Maya?" " Uh..." "Oh, uh, okay, that's a great question. [Stammers]" "Okay, so Simpson asked us to stay away from anything triggering." "Fair enough, but we should give them a chance to flesh it out." "Come back then." "[sighing] Okay." "Awesome." " Anything else?" " Ah, actually, yes." "I motion we have an evening of student council bonding at my house tonight." "You're inviting us over to hang out?" "We could play games, like charades. [Chuckles]" "Charades?" "I am a master of mimery." "I can order pizza, and you guys can get to know Rasha." "Rasha?" "Yeah, it's hard for girls like her to make friends." "And it's our job to help her feel welcome, right?" "Good idea." "We'll be there." " [chuckles]" " If I can get out of this box." "[cell phone vibrates] [chuckles] [indistinct chatter]" "Hey, can you take these to Tristan when you see him tonight?" "Look, I wasn't really planning on going tonight." "But you didn't go last night, either." "[sighs] Well, can't you take them?" "I have team building." "Plus, Tristan needs you." "Don't you want to be there if he wakes up?" "What could be more important?" "He's working at my restaurant." "I wouldn't have asked if there was literally anyone else, but Lautaro basically called in dead." "Since when do you two even talk?" " Well..." " Whatever." "[chuckles] Thanks for the save." "It's just..." "It's hard see him in that bed." "Yeah." "I..." "I totally get it." "But I was serious about serving tonight." "[chuckles]" "And he gave it to me right there in class." " No!" "Did you die?" " I wish." "[scoffs] Okay." "Well, come on, girl." "I wanna get a good stretch in before practice." "[Shay] I'm... sitting this one out." "I'll just tell Armstrong I have cramps." "He'll believe it." "But the meet's tomorrow." "Might sit that out, too." "Wait, actually?" "Shay, this isn't you." "What if I have another incident?" "Who cares?" "People are already calling you Bloody Mary and Flow Rida and... [stammers] Nothing else." "Nothing else at all." "Look, once is an accident." "But twice, and I'm disgusting." "I mean, if Esme hadn't opened her mouth, I could have gotten away with it." "Well, she's probably one of those girls with perfect little periods." "Like a nice house guest?" "It probably brings her chocolates." "[chuckles]" "And she probably has no idea how it feels." "Maybe it's time she did." "[Goldi] Okay, two words." "[stammers] Chicken!" "A Chicken." " Uh-huh, uh-huh." " [Goldi] Um..." " [laughs]" " Superman!" "Close, close, close!" "Um..." "Is it the Hulk?" " No!" " Yes!" "Yes!" "Yes!" "Okay." " Up top." " [all laughing]" "Don't leave me hanging." "I..." "I can't touch boys." "It's against my beliefs." "Uh, there's a rule against high fives?" "Not exactly." "But, like, one touch leads to another, so..." "Uh... [chuckles] But you've touched Zoë." "Uh, not a boy!" " [chuckles]" " But you're a lesbian." "Well, the Qur'an doesn't say anything about touching gay people, so..." "Well, what does the Qur'an say about being gay?" "Well, there are many interpretations, but the most common one is that it's a sin." "So I'm a sinner?" "[chuckling nervously] Rasha, a little help?" "Uh, does anyone want more pizza?" "[Zoë] I think I'm gonna call it a night." "Um..." "It was really nice hanging with you, Rasha." "Um, I'm gonna go with her." "Why didn't you back me up?" "Because I didn't want to contradict you in front of your friends." "You don't think a high five really matters, do you?" "Yeah, I do." "Because I'm a good Muslim." "So, if someone doesn't follow every rule in the Qur'an as you see it, they're a bad Muslim?" "Yeah, I guess." "Good to know." "[Lola] Here you go." "And this go on the side, like this." "Oh, maybe I should pitch a nachos video for our channel." "Wait, if all this food is Mexican, what makes this place Argentinean?" "Me, obviously." "Okay, go." "[chuckles] Okay." "Nachos, side of guac." "Oh, and our deepest condolences for our dear friend Tristan." "Excuse me?" "Oh, is he still with us?" "I figured since you've developed a taste for that Argentinean spice..." "Look, I know you have no personal experience to corroborate this, but not every encounter between a guy and a girl ends at home base." "Okay, table..." "Are you okay?" "Look, am I a crappy boyfriend for not being at Tris' side all the time?" "Of course not." "You need bathroom breaks." " [scoffs and sniffles]" " Okay..." "It's okay to recharge sometimes." "Who cares what stupid Esme thinks?" "Now, table ten's waiting." "Dale." "Hey." "I made your favorite." "Um, about last night..." "Things got a little intense, and I feel awful about it." "Bus'll be here soon." "You ready?" "Whoa!" "Sorry, Rasha." "I didn't realize you didn't have your hijab on." "I'm not wearing it today." "Like, ever?" "And thanks, Goldi, but I'll pass on the bagel." "What happened?" " A high five." " [door closes]" "Rasha doesn't think it's a big deal, and I do." " So you guys can't be friends anymore?" " Apparently not." "I thought I finally found a friend who was just like me." "I guess I was wrong." "[grunts] I'm so sick of feeling different from everybody else." "Maybe you don't need to be so different." "Okay, so where do I compromise?" "If a high five is okay, is a hug?" "Or even a kiss?" "At what point do I even stop being a practicing Muslim?" "[scoffs] I might as well just start eating bacon." "No one said anything about bacon, but you don't have to wear a hijab to be Muslim." " I can't just take it off on a whim." " Rasha did." "Plus, Mom and Dad don't make you wear it." "It's your choice." "Because it makes me feel closer to God." "It's also a giant billboard that says, "I'm different."" "Fitting in is hard enough." "Why make it harder?" "[sighs]" "[Esme] Then we multiply this side by two, which gives us two aluminum oxide molecules." "[Ms. Badger] Quite the balancing act there, Esme." "[laughs]" "Now, I hope you've all taken notes on what Esme did there, because it may come up on a test." "Thank you, Esme." "You may take your seat." "Let's move along to molar enthalpies." "These are used in heat calculations." "We'll be looking at the molar enthalpies of fusion and vaporization..." "What the hell?" "[student gasps]" "You!" "Do you know how much this skirt cost me?" "I..." "I mean, she embarrassed me." "You're the one embarrassed about having a vagina!" " [students gasp and laugh] - [Ms. Badger] That's enough, Esme." "Shay, stick around after class." "[school bell ringing]" "[sighs]" "[inaudible]" "[sighs]" "[school bell ringing]" "[speaking Spanish]" "[continues speaking Spanish]" "Tell me the rumors aren't true." "[chuckles]" "Okay." "They're not true." "What rumor, Zoë?" "Are you hooking up with Lola?" " We're just friends." " Your boyfriend is in a coma, and you're doing favors for the first pretty thing that walks by?" "So I have to spend every second by his bed?" "No one is saying that." "But... be honest." "Would you really be spending this much time with Lola if Tris was awake?" "Like you're there every night, "best friend."" "[Armstrong] All right." "Take your seats." "Today, we're tackling cubic polynomials." "As discussed last class, a cubic polynomial is a polynomial of degree three." "So now that we know this, let's start by solving the following equation using..." "And so Prime Minister Mackenzie King issued a new policy on immigration." "[Goldi] Sorry, sorry." "Perfect timing, Goldi." "We just started a discussion on immigration." "How long have you lived here?" "[students murmuring] [sighs]" "My whole life." "Oh, I'm sorry." "I..." "I thought..." "That brown people can't be from here?" "Or just Muslims?" "Okay, chill." " It was an innocent mistake." " [Goldi] Is it a mistake... when people ask if I'm bald under here?" "Or think I know about suicide bombers?" "There are 1.6 billion Muslims in the world, and... [sighs] they're all different." "I'm very sorry, Goldi." "Thank you." "Okay. [Clears throat] As I was saying..." "What I did in class today was not cool." "I was feeling self-conscious, and I let it out on you." "Well... that almost makes up for the $230 skirt." "Oh, and by the way, I got you something." "[sighs]" "I hope they fit." "You clearly are the bigger person." "Well, guess we're BFFs now." "[scoffs] You're gonna race?" "If I don't, she'll keep doing crap like this forever." "Why do periods make us so weird?" "Because bleeding out of your vagina for five straight days is gross?" "[chuckles] Yeah, and if I let it stop me from doing this, what else am I gonna quit?" "We have to stop letting it affect us." "Sure, but how?" "[indistinct chatter]" "Can we talk?" "I'm sorry." "I shouldn't have said what I said last night." "And just with the whole high-five thing," " I just felt like..." " Our friendship was over?" "[voice breaking] And then you took off your hijab, and I tried to, too, because I just really wanted us to be friends." "But you didn't feel like yourself." "[sighs] Oh, my God." "You get it." "[sighs] I didn't wear my hijab this morning because I was mad." "But if I'm being honest, I never felt like myself wearing it." "I didn't wear it back home, not until I was forced to." "Because of ISIS." "Before they messed everything up, things were pretty liberal." "I'd wear bathing suits to the beach." "In front of boys?" "Yeah. [Chuckles] And we'd play games." "And win or lose, we'd shake hands." "I'll always be Muslim, whether I touch a boy's hand or not." "For me, it's different." "Every single day feels like a choice between the culture here and my faith." "And if you break any rules, you feel like you're not Muslim anymore?" "[sighs]" "Coming here has literally been a second chance at life." "There is so much I want to do." "And for the first time, it feels possible." "Do you want to join us?" "I promise you won't have to touch Winston." "[laughing]" "[Miles] It's crazy, right?" "Who would ask me to be a waiter?" "[sighs] Um, other than that... things have been... really [sighs] good." "That's not true." "Everyone thinks..." "I'm a bad boyfriend." "Being here every day... waiting for you to wake up..." "Just because you're stuck here, I..." "Why do I have to be, too?" "I'm..." "I'm trapped, and it's... [breathes deeply] it's killing me." "Is there a point to me being here at all?" "I feel like I'm just talking to a corpse." "I don't wanna..." "I don't want to leave you, [sniffles] but I don't know how I can stay." "Wouldn't it be... amazing if you just woke up right now?" "[chuckles]" "Please?" "Come... [breath trembling]" "Come back to me, Tristan." "Please." "Wake up." "[sniffles] [sighs]" "Wake up." "Come on." "Wake up." "Wake up." "Wake up." "Wake up!" "Wake up." "Come on." "I know you can hear..." "Wake up." "Wake up. [Gasping] Wake up." "Wake... [sniffles]" "Wake up. [Crying]" "[crowd cheering]" "What's on their legs?" "She's winning!" "Yeah!" "Go, Shay!" "Yeah!" "[Tiny] Yeah, that's my girl right there." "Whoo!" " You were so good." " [Frankie cheers]" "Oh, you did so well." "[chuckling] You... you were amazing." "Uh... [chuckles]" "Um, are... are you all synced up or something?" " It's paint." " Ah." "I was tired of being grossed out by my own body." "I couldn't let it stop me from doing anything." "I'm..." "Look, I am..." "I'm sorry if, uh, if I made you feel gross." "No, you didn't." "I did that to myself." "Is it Shark Week already?" "You know, that's actually kinda funny." "[both laugh]" "I kinda wanna kiss you right now." "[chuckles]" "[Zoë] Miles and I got to talking last night." "He needs something to take his mind off of things, and I thought he could help with the play." "I don't know." "Just hear him out." "Go ahead." "After a bus crash, a guy waits for his boyfriend in a coma to wake up." "But... he meets this girl online." "Her name is Hope." "And she... she helps him through his grief." "Does he hook up with Hope?" " No." " Does the boyfriend wake up?" "TBD." "That actually sounds kind of awesome." "Yeah." "Uh, agreed." "What do you think?" "I think anything about the bus crash can be triggering, but I'm willing to take this to Simpson." " After we see the script, of course." " Yeah." "[Grace] Let's, uh, meet in the music room after school." "Cool?" "Can't wait." "Yeah." "Okay, awesome." "[chuckles] [melancholy music playing]"
