INT. METROCOURT POOL - DAY

Danny and Rocco are lounging on the chairs. Danny has his sunglasses on, gazing up to catch the sun and Rocco is scrolling through his phone. He looks over at Danny.

ROCCO

Are we gonna spend all day at the pool?

DANNY

That was my plan. Why? What else do you wanna do?

ROCCO

I dunno. Something. There's only 2 weeks before school.

DANNY

Which is exactly why I plan to do absolutely nothing for the next 2 weeks.

ROCCO

Shouldn't we like you know...plan?

DANNY

For what?

ROCCO

You know...

Danny shrugs.

ROCCO

What Jake said about being hazed.

INT. METROCOURT POOL - DAY

Danny swings his legs off the chair and faces Rocco.

DANNY

You're not gonna get hazed.

ROCCO

No, YOU'RE not gonna get hazed. You've been hanging out with seniors all summer.

DANNY

And you're practically my brother so...I'll make sure they leave you alone. Don't worry about it.

Jake walks in with his friend Wyatt holding towels. They stop by the bar.

WYATT

Wait, you invited someone else? I thought it was only us.

JAKE

Yeah, she should be here soon.

WYATT

She?!

JAKE

Yeah.

WYATT

So I'm the third wheel?

JAKE

You're not the third wheel. She's just a friend.

WYATT

Good. Because we can't start sophomore year with girlfriends.

Jake looks confused.

JAKE

Why can't we start school with girlfriends?

WYATT

Because! We're in our prime, man. The whole time you were dating Charlotte was a total drag. We can't go into this year on lockdown. Not when we don't know what our options are.

JAKE

What are you talking about?
