Paula Cole ululates.
How thoughtful of the producers of Notting Hill to incorporate the words "not" and "ill" right in the title of the movie! Oh, who am I kidding, I'll see it anyway. I rented Stepmom last night. And I cried at the end even though I knew it sucked. P.S. Bring me the head of Tom Green. It doesn't necessarily have to be in recognizable shape.
Over at Capeside High, a newly stringy-haired brunette Andie, followed by an oddly cowering Jack, approaches Pacey and says, "Hey." He replies, "Hey," and then, noticing her hair, adds, "Wow." "'He said with zero enthusiasm,'" says Andie, purposefully striding onward with none of her usual perky bounce, as the other two trail behind her. Pacey says, "You got a new do!" While Jack gesticulates in Pacey's direction, Andie says, "You don't like it." Pacey says, "I didn't say that, actually." "He didn't say that," Jack insists. Andie says, "No. New hairstyles are judged by immediate response. Yours was lacklustre." Pacey says, "I think you look fantastic, sweetheart! You just don't look like...you." Andie says, "Ha! Keep digging; you're approaching China." Pacey and Jack break into a chorus of "I love it"s but Andie is having none of it: "Liars, both of you," she says, not sounding like she particularly cares. Pacey suggests that they go out that night, but Andie says she has to study for finals, "Not to mention [looking pointedly at Jack] take care of Mom." "Andie, it's Friday night," Pacey says, reminding her that she'll have plenty of time to study over the weekend: "What do you say we take the night off?" Looking at Jack instead of Pacey, Andie says: "You know? Good idea. You should. I mean, you should take the night off. I would love it, but I'm gonna study." At this, she marches away with a frustrated expression. Pacey asks Jack: "Do I deserve this?" Andie looks at the book in her hand and starts making excessively angry noises because it's the wrong one. Pacey says that maybe the right one is in her locker. Through gritted teeth, Andie says, "Yeah, well, it better be. I'll see ya later," and stomps off. Pacey looks to Jack for an explanation, who offers, "It's the hair! She's extra-sensitive; she did it herself." At least someone in the family is somewhat sensitive, jerkwad. Ruefully, Pacey says, "Well, ain't love grand."
Inside the school, Andie opens her locker and continues making similar tense motions with her arms. She glances across the hall and sees a guy with dark, curly hair standing there watching her and smiling. She instantly and visibly relaxes, pulls what is presumably the right book out of her locker and sort of shows it to him. He smiles. She smiles, hugging her book to her chest, and goes on her way.
