At a restaurant, Peter and Emma are having lunch with Peter's dad
Emma: I just love it here. I mean the view is amazing.
Mr. Stone: My pleasure. Glad you could help us celebrate Pete's 17. That's an important day. Got to have your friends around.
Peter: Oh dad. The guy made a mistake. That's not your car.
Mr. Stone: You're right son. It's not. Happy birthday.
(He hands Peter the keys to a new car)
Peter: You're kidding!
Mr. Stone: Nope. Now I know your birthday's not for two days. Here, here, here. But I wanted you to have it for the first day of school.
(Peter hugs his dad excitedly)
Mr. Stone: You're welcome. Here let's take it for a spin.
(Peter's driving the car with Emma in the passenger seat )
Peter: I can't believe this car is mine. I'm the luckiest guy in the world.
(Peter and Emma kiss as Jay and Sean walk over)
Sean: Emma?
Emma: Sean? What are you doing here?
Sean: I moved back. I'm with Jay now.
Jay: Easy Brokeback Mountain. He means he's sleeping on my couch.
(Peter makes a coughing sound)
Emma: Oh Peter, this is Sean. Sean this is Peter, my boyfriend.
Sean: Oh. How's it going man?
Peter: So you're the Sean?
Sean: Guess so.
(Peter puts his arm around Emma)
Sean: Well see you guys at school tomorrow.
Emma: You're back at Degrassi?
Outside Degrassi, Toby, Liberty and JT are walking up to the school
JT: Well here we are. The first day of our last year. Thank Jehovah.
Liberty: The year that'll be the crowning achievement of my academic career.
Toby: I think I hear someone's valedictorian speech coming on.
(They walk past Jimmy and Spinner)
Jimmy. Check out our new classmates. Serious mathletes.
Spinner: Yeah. Good thing though 'cause with Marco gone, I gotta copy my tests off someone.
(Ashley walks over)
Jimmy: Looking fine Ms. Kerwin.
Ashley: Well you know somebody's got to make up for Spinner.
(Ashley playfully hits Spinner with her bag when he sees Darcy walking over)
Spinner: Hi queen bee. Spare some honey?
Darcy: For my king? Anytime.
(Darcy kisses Spinner on the cheek)
Darcy: After being away at bible camp the whole summer I'm so over it. Ready to take this place over, Spin?
Spinner: Ready as I'll never be.
In the parking lot, Peter is showing off his new car
Peter: Yo dudes, check out my whip!
Random guy: Yeah whatever.
Peter: I mean my car. Pretty fly huh?
(Some guys walk by laughing at him)
Peter: Ah thought a new ride would give me some props around here.
Manny: Maybe if you didn't say props. Kidding. I'm gonna go say hi to Sean's biceps.
Peter: Check out Mr. Stud. Degrassi's big-time heartthrob.
Emma: Please. Sean's got a tire iron for a brain.
Peter: Yeah well girls like biceps, not brains. You should know. You dated him for years.
Emma: Well I couldn't care less now. Not when I've got brains, biceps, beauty and a hot car all rolled up in one.
(They kiss)
Emma: I made you an early birthday present.
(Emma gives Peter a toque that she knitted)
Peter: You made this for me?
Emma: Uh huh.
Peter: Thanks. I don't know what to say.
Emma: Oh that I'm gorgeous, perfect and you'll love me forever.
Peter: Yes, yes and yes.
In Mr. Simpson's class
Mr. Simpson: Well as I live and breathe, Sean Cameron.
Sean: Mr. Simpson, it's really good to see you man.
(Manny goes over to Emma who's looking up Degrassi's social event planner online)
Manny: Social event planner. What happened to the real Emma Nelson?
Emma: She's thinking of the real Peter Stone. You know how hard it is for Peter to make friends, so I figured if he got more involved it would be easier.
(Manny is staring at Sean who is talking to Spinner)
Emma: You're so not listening to me.
Manny: Sean Cameron, bench-press has been so, so good to you.
Emma: I'm gonna tell Craig you said that.
Manny: Feel free if you can ever get him on the phone.
Mr. Simpson: Alright! Let me start off by saying welcome to the 12th grade. This is the start of the most important year for you guys in your high school lives.
(Emma and Sean stare at each other from across the room)
At Marco and Dylan's new apartment
Marco: What do you think about Medieval Lit: Monsters in the Mist?
Ellie: Mm no. Let's not take any courses where they make us read Beowulf. Ooh hockey art. Dylan's I presume?
Marco: Yup. You know if you moved in we could out vote him on matters of décor.
Dylan: I heard that!
Ellie: And when it comes to matters of leaving the toilet seat up, thank you no. Residence waiting shall remain my friend.
Paige: Okay I know Marco likes four sugars and Ellie takes her coffee black, like her soul.
Ellie: How I'll miss your cutting jibes when you leave for Banting, Paige. Not that I'm counting the days, but when?
Paige: Can you count to two? And to think that no one has thought of throwing me a going away party. Hint. Hint. Double hint.
Dylan: Uh Marco someone's supposed to be moving in here in two days. Hint, double hint.
Ellie: Funny 'cause someone's also supposed to be deciding on university courses with me.
Marco: Okay mom, dad, relax. I'm all over it, okay?
(He takes a sip of the coffee Paige hands him and makes a face)
Marco: Sweet mother Mary, this is mud!
Paige: Yeah your new roomie is java-ly challenged. Have a cookie.
Outside the school, Manny and Sean are talking while Peter and Emma are working on his car
Manny: She's pretty gorgeous, huh?
Sean: Yeah she is.
(Manny smacks Sean's arm)
Sean: Ow.
Manny: Don't even think about it. Emma's finally in a good place and she doesn't need you ruining it.
Sean: I wasn't planning on it.
Manny: I'm serious. Last year was non-stop Emma-drama-rama. This year she needs to be 100% stress free. Got it?
Sean: Yeah I got it.
(Emma and Peter are arguing about his car parts)
Emma: It doesn't fit.
Peter: Yeah, but it has to!
Sean: Woah! Hey Peter. Hold on a sec. What are you doing? You can't force the filter in like that. You'll never get a proper seal. Just trust me. This is what I do.
Peter: I was just trying to make it go faster.
Emma: It's already pretty fast. How much faster do you want?
Peter: As fast as humanly possibly.
Sean: You know if you want I can hook you up with real mods.
Peter: Yeah that'd be alright.
Sean: Yeah? Sweet. Alright well it all starts with more fuel. Once we do that, we can up your boost. This is what you need. Now I have to head to Woodbridge so meet me later.
Peter: Out where the street races are.
Emma: The illegal street races. Emphasis on illegal.
Sean: Come on. It's just a little fun. What you got against that?
Emma: Nothing. I'm all about fun. I love fun. In fact, if fun were people, I would be China.
Sean: Okay.
At Woodbridge, a bunch of people are hanging out when Peter, Emma and Manny drive up
Jay: Poindexter's in his daddy's car and he's waving at us. Explain.
Sean: That's Peter, Emma's boyfriend. That's not his dad's car, that's his. We're gonna mod it.
Jay: What? Why? Why would we do that?
Alex: What's that phrase, keep your friends close, your enemies closer?
Sean: Whatever Alex.
Jay: Oh lord forgive my sinful thoughts.
Sean: Hey Emma's my friend, alright? And you're gonna stay clear of her. Got it?
Peter: Hey. I got the part. Hope it fits.
Sean: Looks good. Let's try it out.
(Sean and Peter keep talking about cars as Emma shakes her head)
At a coffee shop, Marco and Ellie are sitting there
Spinner: Ah picking university courses. Must be nice.
Ellie: Don't get too excited. Falcult?
Marco: Foucault.
Ellie: Foucault and Postmodernist Marxist Theory. What does that even mean?
Spinner: Do not ask me.
(Paige rushes in and Spinner gives her an awkward smile as he walks away)
Paige: Marco! Party ideas por vous.
Marco: Uh Paige I do have a few things I'm trying to juggle here.
Paige: I know silly, which is why I did some pre-selecting por vous. Hence the uh panoply of pretty, sticky flags.
Marco: You're going to Banting, not to war.
Paige: Sue me for wanting to get everyone together one last time.
Marco: What do you mean one last time?
Paige: Um you, me, Ellie, we're all starting new lives. Who knows? We need one last goodbye hurrah.
Marco: Okay. Okay so I'll then prepare thyself for the most rockingest bon voyage party in history.
Paige: Yay and did I mention how much I love piñatas?
At Woodbridge
Sean: So with the larger injectors you'll have more fuel and we'll be able to run more boost. Should give you about 20%. Sound good?
Peter: Very. Thanks.
(Jay drops a tool on Peter's car)
Peter: Woah dude. Do you know how much this car costs?
Jay: I know what I'm doing Poindexter.
Peter: Yeah well you could have fooled me. What is this called?
Jay: Why don't you do it yourself then?
(Emma pulls out her knitting needles as Sean walks over to her)
Sean: Weird place for knitting.
Emma: It's my new obsession. You know what they say about idle hands.
Sean: Devil's play things. That's why I like fixing cars. It keeps me busy.
Emma: Sean and cars, there's nothing new there.
Sean: Guess some things never change, huh?
Emma: Some things do. Take for example, you. If someone told me I would ever see Sean Cameron back at Degrassi...
Sean: I just want my diploma.
Emma: There are high schools in Wasaga.
Sean: There are a lot of things in Wasaga.
Emma: Things you're running from?
Sean: Running to something. A year from now I'm gonna open my own shop in TO. Cameron's Custom Cars.
(He pulls out a blueprint of his plans)
Emma: Let me look.
(Their hands brush against each other and they pull them away quickly)
Emma: I think it could be really amazing.
(Emma turns around and sees Manny watching them)
In Mr. Armstrong's class
Mr. Armstrong: If you've heard people saying they're terrified of advanced calculus, vectors are the reason why.
(The bell rings)
Mr. Armstrong: Having said that, we're gonna get through them.
(Emma and Sean stand up and bump into each other)
Sean: Later Emma.
Emma: Later Sean.
(Sean walks by Manny who gives him a disapproving look)
Sean: What?
At Dylan and Marco's place, Dylan is interviewing potential roommates
Dylan: These lights come down and open up the loft. That takes care of everything that's power lined about the space, you know. So we'll let you know.
The girls: Thank you.
(Marco walks in with party supplies as the girls leave)
Marco: Wow uh did I just walk into a Gwen Stefani video? Here. I need coffee bad. I've been up all night packing.
Dylan: Great and when are the movers coming?
Marco: Uh tomorrow and they're not movers. It's me, my dad and uncle Louie.
Dylan: Your dad?
Marco: Yeah my dad. Paying movers? That's Del Rossi family sacrilege.
Dylan: So is letting his prize son move away from home, but you convinced him to do that.
Marco: Yeah after I convinced him you're just a friend. Barely a friend. Just an acquaintance I barely talk to.
Dylan: So I shouldn't ask your dad for his permission to marry you.
Marco: Seriously Dylan. This has to look legit, okay?
Dylan: We went over this. I got it.
Marco: Okay. T-minus 8 hours 'til Paige's send-off. Where do we keep the piñata string?
In the hallway
Manny: Hey! Almost forgot. When I had lunch with Sean yesterday we talked a lot about you.
Emma: Mm hmm.
Manny: Oh yeah. He went on and on about how gorgeous you look.
Emma: Really? What'd he say?
(Manny smacks Emma's arm)
Emma: Ow! Manny what was that for?
Manny: What was that for? *Mimicking Emma* Later Sean, I sure love you.
Emma: That is so not fair.
Manny: You know what's not fair? Me and Peter going through hell last year with you and you finally being better and then whamo! You step right into the Sean Cameron mantrap.
Emma: I am not in a mantrap.
Manny: Em it's okay. I get it. The biceps. They work their magic.
Emma: They're not magic and they're not working. Besides what makes you think Sean's interested anyway?
(Peter walks up behind Emma)
Emma: Peter. Wow! Just creeping up on me ever so silently. Happy birthday.
Peter: Oh thanks.
(They kiss)
Peter: Sean said he'd take us to the races tonight. You down?
Emma: Um no...because we need to have a true romantic birthday date. Just you and me, dinner, a movie and no car talk.
At the Dot
Peter: So I asked him if I should put an additive in the fuel to make the car go faster and he said I have a high compression engine.
(Emma doesn't say anything)
Peter: Yeah I didn't know what that meant either until he explained it. Um basically a high compression engine puts out more power. You with me?
Emma: Not even the teeniest bit, but I'm glad you and Sean hit it off.
Peter: Yeah me too. He's a really cool guy. He's been schooling me on cars, you know? He knows everything.
Emma: You like hanging out with him, huh?
Peter: Yeah kind of. Whatever. What movie are we gonna see?
Emma: How about 'Peter takes his girlfriend to the races: part deux'?
Peter: Seriously? You're the best!
At Paige's party, the band is playing in the background
Ashley: *Singing* Come on and join me. The violet tide(?), just step into my soul child. Can you feel it, talking about my soul child? Can you feel it?
(The band keeps playing as Darcy walks over to Paige)
Darcy: Hey Paige. I guess I'm the only one not sorry to see you go. I know you had sex with Spinner last year. Thought you were above being a low grade ho. Guess I was wrong.
Paige: Sweetie, I would love to indulge your need to ruin my party with a full-on catfight, but I'll pass. Save the drama for high school hon. I'm moving on.
(Paige walks away while Darcy flips her hair)
Ashley: *Singing* Can you feel it?
(Ashley stops singing when Marco's dad walks in)
Ashley: Uh Marco?
Marco: Pa what are you doing here? We're not moving 'til tomorrow.
Mr. Del Rossi: Uh Louie could only get the van today.
Marco: But I'm in the middle of a party.
Mr. Del Rossi: I know. Hey everyone. Hey this is uh Marco's uncle Louie. Lou, everyone!
Louie: Hi everybody.
Everyone: Hi uncle Louie.
Dylan: Hey Mr. Del Rossi let me give you a hand with that.
Mr. Del Rossi: No it's okay. I got it.
Dylan: No really. I can.
Mr. Del Rossi: No, no really. Honest. I really
(The box falls and Mr. Del Rossi falls to the floor)
Mr. Del Rossi: Ah.
Marco: Pa!
Mr. Del Rossi: Ah my back. Ah it's thrown. Ah just, just leave me Marco. Pretend I'm not here.
Marco: Pretend there's not a 200 pound Italian man lying on my floor? Um everybody just help me get him to the couch.
At the races, Emma walks over to Sean and hands him a bottle of water
Emma: It's thank you water for being nice to Peter.
Sean: Yeah he's alright.
(Emma pulls out her knitting needles)
Sean: That chills you out, huh?
(Emma nods)
Sean: 'Cause I talked to Manny and uh...did something happen last year?
Emma: I had some issues, body issues.
Sean: You mean, like-?
Emma: You can say it. Anorexia, but I'm better now. I mean I'm working on it. It's day by day, but this helps and if you're nice I'll knit you a sock, but just one.
Alex: Okay everybody! Jay and Peter to the start line.
Emma: Excuse me Jay? Did you put him up to this?
Jay: Hey this was Johnny Hardtops idea.
Peter: Dude, Ragtop idiot.
Jay: Whatever dork. Look do you want to race or not?
Peter: Just from one end of the lot to the other. Don't make me pull the birthday card 'cause I will.
(Peter and Jay get in their starting positions)
Alex: Okay around the lamp post and down to the fence. Ready, go!
(Jay takes off first, but Peter catches up and almost slams into the fence)
Peter: Woah!
(Peter beats Jay when a police car drives over)
Sean: He'll be fine. Come on. Let's go, let's go. Come on!
(Sean pulls Emma and they get into his car)
At Marco's place, Paige brings over a cup of coffee
Paige: Freshly brewed by moi. Michalchuk family barista.
Marco: Nice party, huh? God it lasted all of what, 45 minutes?
Paige: Hon it was supposed to be fun. If you turn everything into a stress fest, you're not going to make it.
Marco: I know. It's just high school was a cake walk compared to what's next. How am I gonna possibly deal?
Paige: Um you have Dylan and the rest of us. It's not like we're disappearing.
Marco: Oh really? You're moving five zillion miles away, Ellie's vanishing into res, Spinner and Jim are still stuck at Degrassi, Craig's in Vancouver and...and I'm moving in with Dylan. My first live in boyfriend. It's, it's not exactly familiar territory.
Paige: Not for any of us hon. We are all looking into the big void of the unknown and it's a little bit scary. A lot a bit, for all of us.
Marco: Get a good long distance plan, okay?
Paige: I'll miss you too, hon.
(Marco and Paige lean towards each other sadly)
In Sean's car, Sean pulls over to the side of the road
Emma: And just when I thought life might get boring.
Sean: Sorry about the cops.
Emma: A little drama keeps life interesting.
Sean: Not too much drama I hope. I'm messing things up for you Emma. Alright, I mean cops, street races. It's bad news, okay? I'm bad news. I just, I gotta stop hanging out.
Emma: I don't want you to stop.
(Emma and Sean start making out when her cell phone rings. She sees that it's Peter, ignores it and starts kissing Sean again)
