INT. SPIN IT SKATING RINK/ FOOD COURT – NIGHT

There's pizza and drinks for everyone set out on the tables. Torie rolls over to join Abram, Nikki, Flynn, Clarke and Jeff who are sitting together. Jeff's looking at Tagged photos.

TORIE

I can't believe no one's won yet.

JEFF

There's still a few people left.

Torie and Abram lock eyes. There's mischief behind her smile.

ABRAM

It's not happening.

TORIE

Yes. We're doing this.

She takes his hand. Abram gives in and lets her drag him to the rink.

At another table, Jaxson's chatting with his friends when he sees Torie and Abram fly by. He watches them go off to the rink together. What's that about?

RINK

SOUNDTRACK: "The Game of Love" by Santana featuring Michelle Branch

Torie and Abram skate around the rink Tagging out players one by one in a series of shots. Until...

DJ (INTERCOM)

Torie Logan is the Tagged winner. Give it up for Torie.

On the rink, Torie and Abram high-five as everyone cheers around them.

RINK

Abram and Torie weave around each other, gliding to the music as "Game of Love" continues to play from the speakers.

ABRAM

After all that, all you win is a shoutout and a virtual trophy? This might be the worst game ever.

TORIE

It's not about what you win. It's about who you play with.

She bumps into him. They smile at each other.

On another side of the rink, Tristen and Shae are skating with their arms around each other. Tristen smiles at her.

SHAE

What?

TRISTEN

You're beautiful.

SHAE

You just can't help yourself can you?

TRISTEN

I'm just happy to be here.

SHAE

Me too.

SITTING AREA

Flynn and Clarke watch everyone roll by. Flynn glances at Clarke. She's bummed she's not out there too. Flynn looks at his DIY dolly. He removes the camera.

CLARKE

What are you doing?

FLYNN

Facing my fears.

RINK

Flynn's in his skates using his remote control to roll around. He's wearing a blinking whistle. He's excited. Clarke skates beside him, enjoying the sight. 

FLYNN

I'm doing it!

CLARKE

Yeah, you are.

On another side of the rink, Savannah skates by herself. In the lobby, Vance is laughing with his friends. Savannah's over it. She rolls past him. A moment later, he rolls beside her.

VANCE

Are you mad at me?

SAVANNAH

Am I mad that you'd rather hang out with your friends than spend time with me? No. I'm having a blaste by myself.

VANCE

Listen, I don't know what's going on with you today, but I think I might have something to make you feel better.

He goes into his pocket and pulls out the blinking pacifier.

VANCE (CONT'D)

For you.

SAVANNAH

I thought you said it was a piece of junk.

VANCE

One man's junk is one woman's shiny piece of junk. Something like that. I don't know.

He puts it around her neck. She puts the pacifier in her mouth and turns it on.

VANCE (CONT'D)

You're a little weirdo. I love it.

He kisses her pacifier. They hold hands and skate together--

A guy slams into Savannah and Taggs Vance. Vance pushes him away.

VANCE

What are you doing?

TAGGER

Another game just started.

VANCE

I'm not in the game you stupid moron.

TAGGER

Chill out, man.

VANCE

Or what?

Vance gets in his face. Savannah tries to pull him away.

SAVANNAH

Vance, Relax.

TAGGER

Back off, dude.

VANCE

What are you going to do?

 Vance shoves him. 

SAVANNAH

Vance, stop!

The guy shoves him back and a fight breaks out. Vance punches the guy in the face and he crashes into Clarke who falls to the floor screaming, holding her leg.

FLYNN

Clarke!

He drops down next to her. The referees blow their whistles and try to break it up. Furious, Savannah skates out of the rink.
