SCENE G

INT. GUIDANCE OFFICE – LATER

Ariella consults with a student.

ARIELLA

And that's why you should always keep an emergency fashion kit with you at all times. Just bring it back when you're all stitched up.

She hands over her emergency fashion kit star-shaped bag. The student takes it and sheepishly walks backward out of the office hiding the split in her pants. The phone rings and Ariella answers it.

ARIELLA

Ariella Clarke, Fashion Consultant.

SECRETARY (O.S)

You have a 1:30 waiting for you.

ARIELLA

Oh. right. Send him in.

She hangs up and moves to the door to address the crowd of students waiting in line.

ARIELLA

I'm sorry everyone, but you'll have to come back later. Better yet, text me.

The line disperses as her appointment shows up.

ARIELLA

Has anyone ever told you that you'd look great in a bow tie?

TRANSCRIPT STUDENT

Can that bow tie get me into college?

He hands Ariella a file.

TRANSCRIPT STUDENT (CONT'D)

I need these transcripts faxed right away.

ARIELLA

Wouldn't it be easier to send a text? (off his look) I'll get right on that.

He exits. Ariella walks over to an all-in-one fax machine and puts the file in one of the slots. She pushes a button and the machine shreds the files.

ARIELLA (CONT'D)

I do not have a kit for that.
