INT: SCHOOL- DAY
Lovelle gapes at the massive crowd of kids around her. Camera pulls out till she's lost in the crowd.
Camera pans down a line of new students, all wearing jeans and band shirts. It stops at Lovelle, looking lost and uncomfortable.
Staff member behind the front desk mechanically slams a stack of books and paper in front of first student in line, then pushes it to the side so the student steps forward, takes their books and walks out of the line. This repeats as each student steps forward, everything moves with the feel of a factory.
Lovelle stumbles through the crowd, lost and looking for anything familiar.
In the locker room Lovelle squints at her locker instructions, clearly confused. She struggles with the lock till a bell rings. A teacher walks by and she tries to stop them.

Teacher does not stop. Halls start emptying out. Lovelle shoves all her books into her back pack and starts looking for her homeroom.

Lovelle perks up, diligently taking notes.
LOVELLE:
(Voiceover)
Nope, this is still really boring.
