(OR, Anticipation...)

“Walmart dress, fake corsage
No stretch limo, no entourage
Not in a trailer park – but close
In a town that’s comatose!
…But one night we shine”

— Jane

Before the prom, at home, Jane is almost ready to shine, no matter how cheap her dress looks or what happened to her at last year’s dance. If only her date, Johnny – who arrives in his dad’s rusty pickup truck, and who is definitely not hung up on being poor – would put his tux on. She’s waited for years for this. What if he doesn’t want to go?

“He’d be Baldwin or Milk
Full of wit and possession
He’d be nice to my mom
But he’d rage at oppression
Oh and he’d sparkle like Bowie…”

— Jendrix

In a hidden school courtyard, Jendrix rushes out of the prom to get some fresh air. And to hide from the guy who was dancing too close, new-kid-at-school Cory. Yet Jendrix is also kinda happy Cory followed them out here…but what does Cory want? And does Cory understand what it means that their name wasn’t always Jendrix? How can love begin across so much unknown territory?

“I’m pregnant at a prom and yeah it’s real now
A cliché that there’s no way I can conceal now
Then I looked to find you there
You weren’t anywhere
My lungs went outta air
I thought I’d die!”

— Chass

In the coat check room, 8-months-pregnant Chass needs a moment. Her date – Jendrix – ran out on her but they’re back now that they are needed. Which they most surely are, as Chass reels off the list of indignities she’s suffered tonight. But who is hiding in the coatroom with her? Could it be the star quarterback/proud future plumber/father of her unborn child? Drama!

On the roof of the school, Kyle – smart kid, almost valedictorian – exchanges messages with one, two, three girls on his phone. What a jerk! Or does he have an addiction? Trouble deepens when his girlfriend Amanda – who actually is valedictorian – arrives with smuggled champagne and Dixie cups. But what is her plan?

In the girls’ room, Amanda wrestles with the revelation that Kyle has been cheating on her. But when Wanda enters, Amanda is forced to reckon with some parts of herself she’d rather not address.

Under the food table in the gym, Seth is hiding from a girl he’s obsessed with. Not his date (best friend Wanda) but a mysterious girl sitting alone in the bleachers. He’s terrified to go back on the dance floor, for reasons he explains to Madison, who also finds herself under the food table after her date, Cory, wandered off to make out with Jendrix. But how do you jump back in when you don’t like the role your classmates have cast you in?

In the bleachers of the gym, as the prom crescendos, the mysterious girl Seth was looking at has a name: Katrina.

Can Cory get her past the hurt that’s broken her?

You asking me to the prom
We were like ten years old
I said ‘Yes’
Didn’t know what a prom was
Looked it up online
Seemed like a fairy tale
More or less”

In front of the school again… but now everything is different. Jane recovers from fainting and Johnny is thrilled that a “poor kid in a Walmart Dress” won Prom Queen. But Jane had a vision and as she tries to understand it, it becomes clear this night might well be the most important of her life… just not for the reasons she’d thought.
