Max: Uh, hey, Kate, I brought your book...
Kate: Max, why did you step in between David and me yesterday?
Max: I hate bullies 1. David Madsen should know better.
Kate: I was hoping he would. But it's nice to see that you care about me...
Max: Kate, I actually do care. So, what's the story with you and David?
Kate: Well. He's a total paranoid ass 2! He thinks I'm part of the Vortex club. Yeah, right.
Max: Why does he think that?
Kate: Because he saw the video. Do you know how humiliating this is for me?
Max: I know this sucks, Kate, but... tell me about the video and maybe I can help.
Kate: Basically, I went to one Vortex Club party and ended up making out with a bunch of people... and ___(1)___...
Max: That's awful. So, how did that happen?
Kate: It's a long story. I'm still trying to sort it all out...
Max: You have to tell me more than that. What happened at the party? Did you drink?
Kate: I swear to God I had one sip 3 of red wine. And then I drank water.
Max: Not enough to get wasted, is it?
Kate: I don't get wasted. Ever. I take a sip at church and I don't end up on a viral video, okay?
Max: Did somebody drug you?
Kate: I remember... I remember getting sick and dizzy...
Max: Go on...
Kate: Then Nathan Prescott said he would take me to the hospital...
Max: Nathan Prescott? Oh, shit!
Kate: He was being nice for a change when he _(2)_ to help me.
Max: He's the opposite of nice. What next?
Kate: All I recall is driving for a long time... then I woke up in a room... I thought it was a hospital because it was so white and bright...
Max: Go on, I'm listening.
Kate: Somebody was talking to me in a soft voice... I thought it was a doctor... until I heard Nathan and felt a sharp sting 4 in my neck... and... and...
Max: And?
Kate: That's all I remember! I don't know what happened... I woke up outside my dorm room the next day. I didn't have any marks or bruises 5, but I felt gross 6.
Max: So, who took the video of you at the party.
Kate: I have no idea. Probably Victoria. She was there being her mean self.
Max: Jesus Kate, I'm sorry. This is serious shit.
Kate: How do I get a viral video taken down? I know it's already _(3)_--what if my church sees that? I need to know what to do...
Max: Kate, we'll figure it out. I'll check back later, okay?
Kate: Thanks, Max... You can put my book here, near my bag.
 
Kate: So Max, can I ask you a question? And please be honest.
Max: Absolutely, Kate. Anything.
Kate: I need to find out if Nathan Prescott helped me... or hurt me afer that party. Should I go to the police?
