1. Set Up: The story takes place in a modern day high school in Southern California. The name of the school is not important and does not need to be mentioned. The story starts off in the school at the end of the school day when all the kids are just getting out of class. Hayley is with her two friends, Amber and Danielle, who she is always bossing around. Amber and Danielle are probably just as beautiful as Hayley, but are way nicer.
2. Inciting Incident: Because of what I am doing for my script, it is pretty clear what the inciting incident is. I am doing a twist on the well known movie and musical/play of Beauty and the Beast. Because enough people are sick of the way Hayley is acting and treating people, a quieter boy at school, Ryan, who is sick of the way he especially is treated, decides to change the way Hayley looks by putting a spell on her. The only way that the spell can be broken is if she can finally learn to treat everyone as equals and finds true love.
3. Some Rising Action: 1)Because she doesn't like the way that she looks, Hayley runs away to go live in the woods where she thinks no one will ever have to see her in her ugly state. 2)She meets a boy from her school, Andrew, who's family isn't very rich and is living in a small, beat up looking, cabin in the woods. She had no idea that he even existed. 3)Andrew brings Hayley home to his family and they help her in any way that they can. 4)Andrew and Hayley finally start becoming friends and Andrew starts teaching her how they survive on little income.
4. Description of Climax: At this part in the script, Hayley and Andrew get into a huge fight. Andrew tries to convince her to come back to school. She does not want this because she does not want people to judge her because of the way that she looks because she did it to so many others for so long.
5. Description of Falling Action: In this part of the screen play, she finally realizes that she can care about people and that every thing is not about the way people look. She becomes content with her new life in the woods where everything is much more simple. She is happy with the way that things are going between her and Andrew. She is happy to just have a frinds who she can talk to that is not going to judge her based on the way that she looks.
6. Resolution: In the end, everything works out like everyone might be able to predict that it would. Hayley ends up falling in love with Gordon. Because she ends up learning to accept people for who they are and not just by the way that they look. The whole point of the story is to help prove that there is more to love than looks and that true love should be based on something far more important than looks.
