Research
When the idea for “The Affair” popped into our heads, we
immediately started working the story out by thinking about how
the chosen subject was portrayed in various media. Most of our
research on topics such as how classmates act together, and
family life were drawn from our own past experiences and what we
believed to be common sense.

Current Day.
Public School
School/Home
The hallways were littered with students and noise from every
direction possible. The lockers were opening and closing as
students were bustling through ever so diligently. MATT SMITH, a
muscular, tall, built student ran into JOHN JAMES, a very
popular and exceptional athlete at the school. Matt and John
began to talk and the sudden awkwardness of the meeting turned
into a short yet friendly conversation.
After school JOHN had invited over MATT to meet his family. The
home was built out of stone and was within a gated community.
Money was not a problem for JOHN’S family after his mother has
DIVORCED her previous husband.
After a few months had passed and MATT and JOHN became well
acquainted with one another JOHN had began to notice some
interesting and odd things. And then it finally happened one
evening.
JOHN enters from the front door. He walks a few steps and throws
his backpack on floor near the wall. JOHN walks down the
hallway. Noises are heard and a look of intrigue appears on his
face. An open doorway appears, revealing STACEY JAMES and MATT
making out. JOHN screams, MATT is seen running away, and the
front door is heard being slammed shut. STACEY is heard ordering
JOHN to his room.
JOHN is in his room. There is a knock on the door. JOHN beckons
the person in. STACEY walks in, sits on the foot of the bed and
starts a conversation. JOHN asks questions, and receives strong
denial. STACEY leaves, JOHN turns out the lights, and goes to
bed.
JOHN is at lunch. He walks over to MATT who has just emerged
from the school doors. They start walking down the street. JOHN
asks the same questions he asked Stacy, and again receives
strong denial. MATT walks away looking angry, and JOHN continues
to walk home looking upset.
After school in a crowded deafening hallway, right next to
MATT’s locker, JOHN waits anxiously on MATT to get out of class
so he can settle the score and break off their friendship. As
the hallway clears down to an empty space, MATT enters with a
sadistic expression on his face.
JOHN walks up to MATT and demands violently he stay away from
his mother; he insists they are no longer friends. MATT, still
with a sinister smile, vows that JOHN will never see him with
STACEY together again. MATT strolls away as a frustrated JOHN
punches the locker by which he stands next to.
It is a Saturday morning, just after dawn, light barely seeping
into his bedroom window; JOHN wakes up to an empty house, as he
calls for his mother you can hear but only an echo responding.
He looks out a window facing the front of the house and sees an
empty driveway with skid marks on the curb.
JOHN anxiously dashes to MATT’S house where MATT’s mother
informs him that MATT has gone camping for the weekend. JOHN
finds out that they are staying at a nearby campground.
JOHN makes it to the camp site; he finds a small tent circled by
luscious green trees which houses his mother STACEY and her
lover MATT are laying.
JOHN and MATT get into a serious argument and begin to brawl
viciously. STACEY looks on in horror as her lover, MATT is
attacking her son, JOHN, brutally. She rushes to the center to
prevent any more blows. JOHN gives her an ultimatum. With tears
in her eyes, STACEY chokingly states MATT to be her choice. JOHN
leaves them be never to return, as he walks away not looking
back as his mother (STACEY) and his MATT kiss passionately.

INT.SCHOOL HALLWAY.DAY.
The hallways are littered with students and noise from every
direction possible. The lockers are opening and closing as
students are bustling through ever so diligently. MATT
SMITH, a muscular, tall, built student runs into JOHN JAMES,
a very popular and exceptional athlete at the school; both
drop their books.
MATT
Oh crap! Sorry man, I didn’t see
you there.
Both Matt and John lean over to pick up their respective
books.
JOHN
Nah dude, that’s cool, it was my
fault, I’m just in a hurry to get
to gym.
(catching his breath)
Gotta go hit them weights, nam’sen?
MATT
Oh, yeah, I hear that! It’s been a
minute since I’ve even set foot in
a gym let alone lifted a weight!
Matt hands John a US History book which inadvertently got
mixed up with his own books.
JOHN
Thanks dude, I’ll probably be
needing that later.
(chuckles)
John and Matt both begin to walk away just as the bell
begins to ring.
JOHN
Alright dude, I’ll see you
around... wait, what’s you’re name
again?
MATT
Oh, dude, I’m Matt.
JOHN
Matt? Oh, OK, I’m John, nice to
meet you Matt.
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 2.
MATT
Same here dude, I’ll catch you
later, I gotta go fail this Physics
quiz.
(laughs nervously)
INT.SCHOOL HALLWAY.DAY.
Later that day, school is at its end. The hallways go from
from deathly hollow places to corridors teeming with life as
the classrooms burst open with antsy students rushing to
their locker. John is at his locker when he hears someone
shout his name.
MATT
Aye yo Johnny! What’s cracking?!
JOHN
Hey! uh, Mark, no wait, Matt!
What’s up dude?
MATT
Oh, not much bro, I just wanted to
see what was, you know, popping.
You wanna hang out or chill or
something dude?
JOHN
Damn. Dude, I can’t today, I got
practice right now after school.
John attempts to yank a dufflebag out of his locker. Matt
assists and with ease the both get the bag out.
MATT
Ah, that’s cool dude.
JOHN
Wait though, I think I can manage a
bro-chilling session after school
into my schedule tomorrow though.
MATT
Yeah! For sure man! That sounds
pretty cool! Yeah, later dude.
JOHN
Sure thing, we’ll just hit up my my
place, and chill, you know!
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 3.
MATT
For sure!
Matt and John depart, heading into opposite sides of the
hallway.
EXT.JOHN’S HOUSE.DAY.
It’s the following day, after school, John and Matt can be
seen walking towards the residence of John James. It is
rather large house in a nice neighborhood.
JOHN
... and that’s when I said, "Hey,
you better shut your mouth, before
I fuck it!"
The boys begin to laugh hysterically
MATT
[sigh] That was pretty funny.
(kicks rock)
Are you sure it’s cool with your
parents if I just show up at your
house like this?
JOHN
Oh, dude, yeah, it’s cool. I’m
positive my mom doesn’t mind.
MATT
How about you’re dad?
JOHN
(chuckle)
No need to worry about that, the
thing is he kinda doesn’t live with
us, my parents are divorced, you
know.
MATT
Oh, my bad dude, I’m sorry, didn’t
to bring that up.
JOHN
It’s cool, I’m used to the fact of
it by now, I mean, they have been
for a while
4.
INT. JOHN’S HOUSE.DAY
The boys, John and Matt, enter the lavish home and are
subsequently greeted by STACEY JAMES, John’s mother who was
seated in the living room.
STACEY
Hi John! Honey, how was you’re day
at school today?
(Pause and scans Matt from
head to toe)
Um, hello, you must be John’s new
friend!
MATT
Yeah, uh, I’m Matt, hi Mrs., err, I
mean Ms. John’s mom, ma’am.
STACEY
Oh please, call me Stacey, I
haven’t been a Mrs. anything since
John’s scumbag of a father went and
Visibly angered, John furiously interrupts his mother in the
middle of her sentence.
JOHN
Really mom?! Why do you always have
to that in front of people?!
STACEY
Do what? Tell the truth?
JOHN
Noo! You just don’t understand!
John storms up the stairs towards his his room, a dumbstruck
Matt follows suit.
MATT
Nice to, meet you Miss, I mean,
Stacey.
INT. JOHN’S ROOM.DAY
John storms into the room slamming the door behind him, Matt
knocks and then enters.
JOHN
Dude, I didn’t mean for you to see
all that.
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 5.
MATT
That’s cool dude, everyone has
those days.
JOHN
(pointing at tv)
You wanna play some wii?
MATT
Shit! You know it!
They begin to play videogames, both are now in a visibly
good mood. They begin to joke around laugh as they play.
EXT.SCHOOL.DAY.
It is several later, Matt and John are now very good
friends, Matt is seen waiting for John in the morning
sitting on the steps outside of school as students begin to
enter the building.
JOHN
What’s going on? Fuck man! It’s way
too early for this.
MATT
I know what you mean man, I had to
force myself outta bed this
morning.
JOHN
(laughing hysterically)
Yeah, what was the guy’s name whose
bed you were in and refused to
leave!
MATT
(serious)
No man, it was you’re fucken mom’s
bed, I refused to leave cause I
didn’t want to wake her up!
JOHN
Woah, dude, why so hostile, man, I
was just kidding. Just a joke, you
sounded serious as hell.
Matt attempts to laugh off what he had just said as a joke.
MATT
Yeah dude, I’d love to sit here and
bullshit all day but I think class
(MORE)
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 6.
MATT (cont’d)is gonna be starting up in a few,
we should probably head on in.
JOHN
Yeah, dude, I’m not trying to get
no more tardies in first hour; one
more and it’s a three hour Friday
detention.
MATT
Dude, well you’d better hurry up,
because its gonna
Bell rings
(cont) be 8 o’ clock...
JOHN
FUCK!
MATT
Dude, lets just get to class.
Matt and John make their way to their respective classes,
John is seen being given a detention to be served that
Friday.
INT.SCHOOL HALLWAY.DAY.
It is Friday and school has just ended. John is angrily
gathering his things from his locker preparing for
detention. Matt walks by to see what’s up, making his way
through hordes of people in the hall.
MATT
You going to detention dude?
JOHN
I have to... or else.
MATT
Or else what?
JOHN
I don’t know, but I also don’t
really want to find out.
MATT
Well, you better not be tardy to
the detention, might wind up
getting another.
((laughs)
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 7.
JOHN
Not funny. I’d better go though,
later man!
MATT
For sure, I’ll see you around,
maybe we’ll hang out tomorrow.
JOHN
Yep, see you then!
John exits into a room with a crudely taped sign reading,
"DA-TEN-SHUN" meanwhile Matt stands in the hall which is now
practically vacant.
EXT.JOHN’S HOUSE.DAY.
Detention has ended, John is seen coming up to his house,
having walked from school. He enters, throws his backpack to
the ground and proceeds to look for his mother.
JOHN
MOM!
(walking up the stairs)
Mom, you up there? I’m kinda hungry
and I was wondering what’s for
dinner. MOM!
John hears someone in his mother’s room and proceeds to walk
in, the door is slightly open.
(cont.) Oh there you...
John is nearly paralyzed after what he sees, his best friend
Matt and Stacey, his mother are in her room, on her bed,
making out. Matt, notices someone has walked in and
immediately flees.
STACEY
JOHN! Go to your room immediately!
JOHN
What the fuck is going on here?!
STACEY
I’m not going to tell you again
John, go to your room!
John exits his mom’s room
8.
INT. JOHN’S ROOM.DAY
Not believing what he just saw, John sits in his room
staring at the wall with a blank expression. There is a
knock at the door.
JOHN
Come in!
STACEY
Hi sweety, I know you saw something
today, but its not what you think
it was.
(Sits at the edge of the bed)
JOHN
Well then you tell me, what did I
just see?
STACEY
I’m just saying, you were at school
for a really long time today, you
must be tired, I was in my room
taking a nap.
JOHN
Mom! I know I didn’t just imagine I
saw someone run away from you’re
room.
STACEY
No one was in there! You oughtta
get some sleep.
JOHN
[Gasp] It was Matt! It was Matt
wasn’t it?
(punching bed)
Yeah, I recognize that sweater
anywhere, Matt was wearing it
today! Mom, you’re messing around
with my best friend?!
STACEY
Johnny! You’re delusional, I’m
doing no such thing! Go to sleep
young man!
Stacey exits the room turning off the lights, John crawls up
into bed and falls right asleep.
9.
INT.SCHOOL CAFETERIA.DAY.
Its lunch time on the following, John is eating lunch lunch
all alone, just when Matt enters the cafeteria from a door
leading outside. John gets up to go talk to him.
JOHN
Where you been at Matt?
MATT
Uh, at home, I just woke up.
JOHN
Oh, dude, what’d you do Friday
after school?
MATT
Friday? I went home right after
school. I don’t really remember,
although I did watch Ghost Busters
over the weekend.
JOHN
That’s weird, cause I think you
were at my place on Friday.
MATT
Nah, I don’t think so, dude, you
must be ceazy, I haven’t been to
your place since like last Tuesday,
remember.
JOHN
I’m sure it was you, I saw you’re
sweater.
MATT
You know what, John, I’msorry but I
gotta go.
JOHN
No wait.
MATT
I’ll see you round, Ok?
Matt exits angrily the cafeteria meanwhile John just stands
there perplexed. Both are physically upset.
10.
INT.SCHOOL HALLWAY.DAY.
The deafening crowd of homeward bound students is once again
in the hall, John is seen anxiously waiting by Matt’s locker
for him to come by. At last, as the kids in the hall start
to leave, Matt emerges from the crowd.
JOHN
Matt, dude, I know that was you in
my mom’s room. I just came here to
tell you that we can’t be friends
anymore.
MATT
Ok, you know what? Just stop it!
Alright, yeah, I AM kinda messing
around with Stacey but I don’t see
how this is your business!
JOHN
My business? Dude, you’re trying to
get it in with my mom!
MATT
Stacey is a grown woman with grown
woman needs!
JOHN
Stacey? Dude, stop talking about my
mom like that! That’s it! I don’t
ever want to so you anywhere near
my mom again! We can no longer be
friends any more.
MATT
I can assure you that you’ll never
see me and Stacey together ever
again.
Matt gives John a rather sinister smile and walks off into
the emptiness of the hallway and down the stairs. John
stands there outraged and punches a locker out of anger.
INT. JOHN’S ROOM.DAY
It is bright and early on a Saturday morning, it seems that
throughout the week everything has returned to normal. Just
after dawn, light begins seeping into John’s room, waking
him up to an empty house.
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 11.
JOHN
MOM! Hello! You Home?!
Looking out the window, John notices skid marks in the
driveway. The worst comes to his mind.
(cont.) Goddammit!
JOHN anxiously dashes to MATT’S house and knocks the door,
a woman answers.
MATT’S MOM
Hello there, It’s awefully early,
what can I do for you?
JOHN
Hi ma’am, I’m a friend of Matt’s
and I was wondering if he was
around?
MATT’S MOM
Oh, no, Matt left earlier today,
packed up. Said he was going
camping with a friend and his mom.
JOHN
Do you know where it is that they
went camping?
MATT’S MOM
I believe he said that his friend
John’s mom had gotten a cabin out
in Harrison Park.
JOHN
Thanks ma’am
MATT’S MOM
By the way son, what’s your name?
JOHN
Oh, I’m THE John.
MATT’S MOM
Oh dear!
John laves Matt’s house and walks down the street headed
back to his place.
12.
EXT. JOHN’S HOUSE. DAY
John manages to find the keys to his mom’s old car and is
seen out in the drive contemplating.
JOHN
I wonder where the hell they are?
(Gets in car)
ok, so they’re at Harrison Park,
right? Ok, Ok, lemme just think
this through.
(turns on car)
Alrighty then.
John heads out of the drive way in a very similar fashion to
that of his mother, leaving skid marks.
EXT. CAMPGROUND. DAY
JOHN makes it to the camp site; he finds a small tent
circled by luscious green trees which houses his mother
STACEY and her lover MATT are laying.
JOHN
And what the fuck do I suppose is
going on here?!
STACEY
John! What the hell are you doing
here?
JOHN
Mom? You got some nerve asking me
that. What are you doing?
MATT
John, didn’t I tell not to go
meddling in things that don’t
concern you?
JOHN
What do you mean,"Don’t concern
me"? This is my mom muthfucker!
MATT
Muthafucker? Yeah, you got that
right!
Matt gives off another of his sinister expressions, John
loses his cool and swings at him leading to a brawl.
(CONTINUED)
CONTINUED: 13.
STACEY
Stop it! Stop it!
(runs to center to stop the
fight)
JOHN
Mom? It’s either him or me!
STACEY
But John?
JOHN
That’s it!
Stacey is silent and pans out her options.
MATT
So, who’s it gonna be Stace?
STACEY
(crying)
I don’t know how to say this but,
I’m sorry honey... I’m going to
have to choose Matt.
MATT
YES!
JOHN
I see, you made your choice, now
I’m making mine.
John walks away into the endless trees which engulf him as
he walks through. Matt and Stacey are seen kissing
passionately in front of the tent.
