Opposites Do Attract
(Alexis Voice) First
off, let me introduce myself. My name is Alexis Dietrich. My parents were always very close friends with Sharon Osbourne,
wife of shock rocker Ozzy Osbourne. My father died a couple of years ago to Lung Cancer, and my mom was always a b!tch to
me. Kelly, Ozzys second eldest daughter and I was always the best of friends. Even though my personality is completely different
from hers, she has stuck with me through everything. After my father died, my mom got much worse. One weekend I went to the
Osbournes Beverly Hills home to visit with Kelly. I knew I had to tell someone what was going on.
(Set) Osbourne
Mansion. Kelly and Alexis walk into the house and into the sitting area. Sharon is sitting on the couch going over some papers.
Alexis sets her stuff down and walks over to Sharon and they hug.
(Sharon) Hay Girlie!
You look fantastic!
(Alexis) Thanks.
(Sharon) (To Kelly) What
do you two have planned for tonight?
(Kelly) (Excitedly) Were
going to stay in and watch movies till we f*cking drop!!! (Alexis gives a small smile)
(Sharon) Okay. Its really
good seeing you Lexi. (Kelly and Alexis walk out and up to Kellys room)
(Set) Kellys room. They walk
in and Alexis sits on the bed while Kelly looks for a movie. After a few minutes of Kelly mumbling...
(Alexis) (Closes her eyes)
Kel, can I confide something with you?
(Kelly) (goes and sits
beside Alexis) Sure. What about?
(Alexis) Its kinda a hard
subject... You know how my mom was always a b!tch to me when my dad was living? (Kelly nods) Well... Now shes ten times
worse. Like the other day... You know how we Seniors get a bunch of pictures made during the year?
(Kelly) Yeah.
(Alexis) Well, she started
yelling at me... (eyes start tearing) telling me that I always think money, quote unquote, grows on f*cking trees.
And how I didnt deserve to be a Senior because I was a sucky dancer and a $h!tty artist. (Starts crying) And how I
needed to either get a real job, and quit school, or get the hell out of her house. (Sniffs) And I dont want to drop
out! I have a great chance of getting accepted into that School for the Arts here! Oh god Kelly! I DONT know what to do! (Crys
harder)
(Kelly) (grabs Alexis head
and lets her cry on to her shoulder) Its okay... Ill figure out something... (Alexis is still crying) Look at me...
(Alexis looks up) You are not worthless... And you are the BEST damn dancer on the face of the planet! Dont listen
to what your mom says. She is a stupid b!tch that doesnt know what the f*ck she is talking about!
(Alexis) (Drys her eyes)
Thank you so much! I dont know what I would do without you...
(Alexis Voice) I was sooo
glad that I talked to her. The next morning show woke up before me and talked to her mom. All I can say is THANK god for Sharon!!!
(Set) The next morning. Kellys
room. Alexis wakes up to an empty room. She stands up and puts a sweatshirt of Kellys on, over her pjs, and walks out into
the hallway. As she walks out she bumps into Jack.
(Jack) DAMN Alexis! You need
to watch where the hell you are walking!
(Alexis) Oh shut up! It is
too early to start with your $h!t!!! (Keeps walking to the kitchen)
(Set) Kitchen. Ozzy is watching
TV while Kelly and Sharon are talking in the kitchen. Alexis walks in and picks up one of the dogs.
(Alexis) Hay Ozzy.
(Ozzy) (Looks away from
the TV) When the f*ck did you get here?
(Alexis) I got here yesterday.
Why?
(Ozzy) Its just that your
so f*cking quiet that no one know until they see that face of yours... (Alexis sets the dog on the floor and walks up to
Kelly and Sharon)
(Sharon) Hay sweety. How did
you sleep?
(Alexis) Much better than
I do at home.
(Sharon) Thats good. Kelly
was just telling me what was happening with your mother. I hate that for you. I know that living with that women can be pure
hell. What would you think... If it is okay with your mother... If you moved in with us?
(Alexis) (Gets wide eyed)
Are you sure??? I dont want to put you out...
(Kelly) Since when have you
put us out? Mom and Dad always thought of you as one of us...
(Sharon) And nothing you say
can change our minds.
(Alexis) Thank you guys sooo
much!!!
(Sharon) I will call her after
lunch. (Alexis gives a big smile and hugs Sharon)
(Set) Sitting Area. Sharon
is sitting at the desk on the telephone. To Alexis Mother.
(Sharon) And I have a big
question for you. I know youre having trouble making ends meet so we would like Alexis to come live with us. If thats okay
with you.
(Alexis Mom) Are you kidding?
I finally can get that little pain in the @$$ out of my house. Haha!!! Finally after 17 years!
(Sharon) How can you say such
a thing?
(Alexis Mom) Easily. Ill have
her stuff out on the front lawn. I want it gone tonight. Bye! (Hangs up)
(Sharon) What a heartless
B!TCH! (Slams the phone down)
(Ozzy) What the f*ck happened?
(Walks over to her)
(Sharon) I see why Lexi wanted
out of that hell hole. Can you believe that b!tch had the f*cking nerve to say that she was glad to finally get rid of her?
So now I have to go to her house and get all of Alexis stuff off of her yard.
(Ozzy) You always knew she
was the f*cking ice whore of the f*cking century.
(Sharon) I know. I just feel
so bad for Lexi. (Gets up and goes to Kellys Room)
(Set) Kellys room. Kelly and
Alexis are playing Dance Dance Revolution when Sharon walks in.
(Sharon) Hay girls.
(Kelly) Hi. (Turns off
the game and they all sit on the bed.)
(Alexis) She was happy to
get rid of me wasnt she?
(Sharon) Sadly enough to say.
We have to go get your stuff tonight. Do you feel okay enough to come?
(Alexis) I guess. You coming
Kelly?
(Kelly) I wish I could kick
that b!tchs @$$!!! But I will come.
(Alexis) When do we go?
(Sharon) Lets head on so we
can get there before night fall. Come down when you're ready. (She gets up and leaves)
(Alexis) (Chuckles)
(Kelly) Whats so funny?
(Alexis) Just the fact that
Jack isnt going to like this! (Both start laughing)
(Set) Alexis house. They drive
up to find all of her stuff thrown all over the yard. Sharon, Kelly, and Alexis looked shocked.
(Alexis) Oh my god! (Jumps
out of the car and runs to her sketch pads. Sharon and Kelly remain in the car)
(Kelly) How the hell could
a mother do this to her own flesh and blood?
(Sharon) Just be happy you
dont know her like your father and I do. (They both get out and help Alexis)
(Alexis Voice) I was so upset
that my mother... I guess I shouldnt call her that anymore... would THROW all of my possessions, art supplies... My WORK out
all over the yard. I was sooo hurt. The clothes of mine that she didnt throw out, she kept because she thought they would
look good on her. Fat chance. Anyways, apparently Sharon talked to my "mom." So my mom is supposed to call every now and then.
I didnt want to talk to her, especially after all she did. When we got back to Kellys house, we started taking everything
to my new room. Jack still had no idea of what was going on. At least, not until we started bringing boxes in.
(Set) Osbourne house. In front
of the main staircase. Alexis is carrying a handfull of art supplies. She gets to the top of the stairs when Jack sees her.
He runs to find Sharon.
(Set) Driveway. Sharon, Kelly,
and Ozzy are standing by Sharons car, talking.
(Sharon) She is devestated...
(Jack cuts her off)
(Jack) (Walks up to them)
Explain to me what the f*ck is going on? Tell me that preppy b!tch isnt moving into our house!?!
(Kelly) Yeah. You got a problem
with that?
(Jack) Well, YEAH!
(Ozzy) I dont give a d@mn
what you think. Her f*cking mother just threw her out.
(Sharon) And she is going
to live with us...
(Ozzy) And you're going to
have to f*cking deal with it! (Jack storms of pissed back into the house)
(Kelly) What an @$$ hole...
(Set) Alexis New room. She
is unpacking her underclothes when Jack walks up behind her.
(Jack) Ha!!! The prep b!tch
wears GRANNY PANTIES!!! (Alexis jumps. Jack grabs a pair and runs down the hall.)
(Alexis) JACK!!! BRING THOSE
BACK!!! (Runs after him)
(Set) Hallway. Jack is running
with Alexis closing in on him. After a few rounds in the house, Alexis catchs up to him and pushes him into a wall.
(Alexis) (Grabs panties)
@$$hole! (Walks off. Jack watches her, smiling)
(Alexis Voice) I couldnt believe
Jack did that. Wait a minute... Yes I can. Man I was glad that he goes out alot at night. Now its time to get adjusted to
having people come in and out, sometimes in crowds. I dont think I will ever get used to the crowds though. I guess I should
let yall know that when my bitch of a mother kept my clothes, she kept my good clothes that I wear. Which lead me with hardly
anything, and I couldnt wear my dance clothes all the time. So Kelly, from time to time, would let me borrow some of her clothes,
sweatshirts in particular. However, now I will be careful where I dress.
(Set) Kellys room. The only
one in there is Alexis and she is changing shirts. Jack barges in.
(Jack) Kel, theres a -- (Alexis
turns to look at Jack quickly, and pulls her shirt on really quick)
(Alexis) (Screams) Jack,
you @$$! Dont you know how to knock?!? (Pushes him out the room. Jack trips and falls. Alexis slams and locks the door)
(Jack) Oh my god! She is a
female! (Gets up and beats on the door) Come on Alexis! Let me back in!
(Alexis) (Voice) GO
AWAY!!! (Kelly walks up behind Jack)
(Kelly) You know what? It
almost looks like you like her... How sweet.
(Jack) Oh f*ck off! (Walks
off)
(Kelly) You sick bastard.
(Knocks on the door) Alex... Its just me... (Alexis opens the door) You okay?
(Alexis) (Face is flush
red) How do you think? I just got the $h!t imbarassed out of me! Ga! I swear that -- URGGG!!!
(Alexis Voice) I wanted to
hurt Jack sooo bad! You would thik he would have knocked but NO! Being the inconsiderate bastard he is, walks on in! I wonder
what Kelly would have done to him... Probably a whole lot worse than I could... But anyways... The next, well several, days
after that mishappening, I was really busy, most of the time not even at home. Getting portfolios finished, dance to choreograph,
where am I supposed to eat? Well, Sharon took care of the food part for me. I wasnt used to it. But I look forward to it now.
(Set) Kitchen. Alexis is sitting
at the counter, in dance attire, eating. Ozzy is in the sitting area, Sharon is sitting beside him. Kelly is beside Alexis.
They are talking.
(Alexis) Kelly, you know how
I feel about going to a club! I cant take the crowds!
(Kelly) Oh come on! You're
already dressed! Please? Just this once... (Gives puppy dog face)
(Alexis) (Mumbles) god,
I hate it when you do that... Okay.
(Kelly) (Happy) YES!
We leave at 11 oclock! (Alexis gives a small smile as she goes back eatting)
(Set) Outside a club. Alexis,
Kelly, Jack, and a couple other people are standing outside waiting to get in.
(Jack) (Looks Alexis up
and down) I cant believe this... (Everyone looks at him) Here we are about to go into a club and Alexis is dressed
like a preppy hoe!
(Kelly) (Softly) Oh
god!
(Alexis) What do you mean
by that? Take a look around Jack@$$! You know what? I don't fell like standing here argueing with you. You can just kiss my
@$$! This was obviously a bad idea comming. (Walks off)
(Jack) Fine BITCH! (Runs
after her, kisses his hand and smacks her butt hard. Kelly has an astonished look on her face)
(Alexis) (Turns around
with a shocked look on her face and screams) You sick, disgusting @$$HOLE! (Slaps Jack clear across his face and goes
to Kelly)
(Alexis Voice) As you can
see, Jack crossed the line... Pushed my buttons... So now I was PISSED!
(Alexis) (Turns to Jack)
Well, since you think that I am such the Preppy Hoe... I think Im am going to stay and prove you wrong. Because, quiet
frankly, I am really sick of your $h!t that you have been giving me since Ive moved in!
(Kelly) Right on Alex! You
show that bitch whos boss!
(Jack) (Has a stunned look
on his face as he yells to Kelly) Shut the f*ck up Kel! (Stomps back to the group as they are shown inside)
(Alexis Voice) At least I
had Kelly to back me up. We were shown inside. The bouncer made it very clear to me and Jack that we better not start anything
in there. Hopefully, Jack will keep his hands, and his stupid comments to himself.
(Set) Inside the club. Everyone
is shown to the table. The song that is playing is "Man with Mean Greens" by Pink. It is at the end when "I Think Im Paraniod"
by Garbage starts playing.
(Alexis) (Jumps up and
screams) Oh my god! This song kicks @$$! Come on Kelly! (Drags Kelly to the dance floor and they start dancing)
(Set) Dance floor. Kelly and
Alexis are dancing. Alexis is singing along while dancing.
(Alexis) (Singing) "I
think Im paranod, and complicated, I think Im paranoid!"
(Set) Back at the table. Jack
is staring at Alexis as she is dancing.
(Jack) (Quietly) No
f*cking way. Lets go guys! (Drags friend to dance floor near Alexis. After a minute, Alexis and Jack turn around at the
same time and they smack heads. They stand there for a few seconds staring at each other with the "holy cow" look on their
faces. Kelly walks over to them)
(Kelly) Its so sweet!
(Jack) (Pushes Alexis back
into Kelly)Get the hell away from me!
(Alexis Voice) Can you believe
that when we knocked heads I actually thought that he was simi-dating material for me. I guess I was wrong. He is just an
over grown... Yeah... Kel and I danced the night long. By the time that we got home, Ozzy was up. I couldnt hold it in. I
had to tell someone.
(Set) Sitting area.
