Act 1 Scene 2-

INT- BEDROOM – DAY

ALEXIA (16, she has a completely new personality, her new favourite colour is pure black and she now thinks of self and a vampire, she does not wear the glamour look she used to wear.) She wakes up from the terrible nightmare after what had happened in her past in France, she had just recently moved to the UK around the estate of Bermondsey because of the ‘accident’ that happened in France, the police are looking for and the only way she could escape from them is to look completely different and to live somewhere far away.

                        ALEXIA-

(Rises from her coffin bed in fear) Oh gosh it was just a dream, a dream that I wish never happened in real life. (She gets up and puts on her video log) Hello it’s me ALEXIA and this video log is about my new lifestyle in Bermondsey after I just moved from… Australia (not wanting to reveal where she came from), so far it has a COMPLETE nightmare, the girls that call themselves ‘The Beauty Girls’ are ruining my life! But me I call them ‘The Chavs’ because they all act like one, especially these two main girls, one called CHLOE and the other one called LEXIE, they are complete drama queens always making sure they are looking the best and take any chance to ruin ANYONES life, BEWARE! They seem to have issues on how to act like a human being. I have been planning for a very long time on how I am going to bring down ‘The Chavs’ so they can learn not to even try to mess with me again.

                       EDWARD- (shouting)

ALEXIA stop talking to yourself and get up so you can go out of this house, also get your own breakfast your old enough to start looking after yourself since you made us move from FRANCE to this dump place without leaving an explanation. ALEXIA I am not a patient person, come down NOW!

                       ALEXIA- (whispers)

Sorry, that was my dad I gotta go before who knows what will happen (turns off video log). ALL RIGHT DAD IM COMING AND I ALREADY TOLD YOU IM NOT TALKING TO MYSELF IT’S MY VIDEO LOG!

                        EDWARD- (shouting)

I don’t care if it’s your ‘video log’ you’re talking to, stops making up excuses and leave this house this instant, and make sure your home on time otherwise there will be consequences!

                        ALEXIA- (shouting back)

(Quickly puts on clothes and ‘make-up’) yeah, yeah, dad whatever I’d rather leave now than stay with you!

 

 

 

Act 2- Scene 1-

EXT- PAVEMENT- DAY

ALEXIA (16, is wearing her new Goth look with a cigarette on her hand and drinking at the same time) she is walking along the pavement making sure nobody she knows see’s what she is doing. CHLOE (16 the lead of the group always making sure she stands out more than anybody else), LEXIE (16, was the lead until she became too nice that someone else had to take over.) and the rest of the group are walking the same direction as ALEXIA but they don’t know because of the way she looks until they saw her face…

                           CHLOE- (whispers to group)

OMG isn’t that the freaky new girl that goes to our school? No one answer that I’m sure it is, LEXIE take a picture of her with YOUR mobile phone you know just in case anything happens unless your style too nice.

                          LEXIE-

Okay CHLOE that was just a onetime thing, you really want to make a big deal out of it, and then carry on wasting your time. Any who (Takes out phone and takes a picture of ALEXIA).

                         CHLOE-

Final Treatment


Present:

Kate Moreno, Cathy Gonzalez, Aminata Koroma

Absent: Emma Cosgrove.

Act 1- Set up- Alexia is having a flashback of what happened in France, the fight between her and her ex-boyfriend. They are standing outside a block of flats and it is dark. They bare both slightly drunk and have just come home from clubbing. They are arguing because Alexia saw Damion kissing another girl in the club. Damion gets extremely angry and aggressive and pushes Alexia against the wall and punches her in the face. Then Alexia gets out a very sharp pocket knife and slices Damion’s arm and then runs off. All of a sudden Alexia wakes up from this nightmare and then gets started on her video log of her horrid life in Bermondsey. She introduces herself and the Chavs but she only mentions the main ones who are Chloe and Lexie, Alexia talks about how she plan to ‘bring’ down the Barbie’s because they are ruining her life. What she doesn’t realise things are about to get a lot worse…

Act 2- Conflict- On a Sunday evening Alexia is walking along smoking with a drink in her hand and the chavs see her then, they have fight about it and they take a picture of Alexia and send it to the whole school, the Principle manages to find out and wants to expel her, unfortunately Alexia cannot seem to get out of this situation because, of the evidence that the chavs have taken of her drinking and smoking. The next day when she goes to school all she sees is everyone staring at her, but Alexia doesn’t seem to understand why, the chavs walk up to her, laugh at her and walk away from Alexia, the Principle calls her to the office says nothing to Alexia but shows the picture, now Alexia seems to understand why everyone at school was staring at her, she tried to explain but the Principle wouldn’t believe her, and all the Principle said was ‘Tomorrow the police would like to talk to you about your inappropriate behaviour, you need to write a statement and if this picture is not real or you smoking and drinking you need proof otherwise you will be expelled’. She walks away with an angry face; she will not let any of the Chavs get away with it, until she gets it her way… 

Act 3-Since Alexia needs to see the police tomorrow and write a statement about the ‘truth’ she has been planning a way to take down the chavs, she is going to tell the Principle that they photo shopped the whole thing, by showing an old picture of her that looks very a like to similar picture but without her having a cigarette and a drink in her hand, and explain to the Principle and Police how they managed to include the main features in the picture, but mainly blame Chloe and Lexie, because they are the ones who make fun of her the most. The next day which is a Tuesday she talks to the police and Principle and they believed her because Alexia explained it so well and made it seem so real, Police and Principle Explain how sorry they were to Alexia and said that ‘we cannot expel all the girls especially Lexie and Chloe but we will exclude them for 2 weeks and give them a lot of work because if they do not complete it will be extended and given even more work’. Alexia could not have been anymore happy.

Act 3- Alexia does not let that go in her way, and she has been planning a way to take down the chavs, so Alexia creates a plan by telling the principle that the girls photo shopped the whole thing and it was fake, since Alexia is a half-way point expert on lying after what she did to her ex-boyfriend and got away with it
