CHIP
At the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
My parents keep on telling me
Just being here is winning
Although, I know it isn't so

MS. PERETTI
But it's a very nice, very, very nice

MS. PERETTI, CHIP
Very, very nice
Very nice
Beginning!

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Our winner here last year, Chip Tolentino.

LEAF
At the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Game - Bee
I'll stand when they announce my name

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Leaf Coneybear

LEAF
And try and keep from shaking

LOGAINNE
Alas
His shaking will not pass

ALL
'Cause it's a very big, very fraught
Simple but it's not
It's a very big undertaking

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Returning from last year's tragic setback, William Barfee!

WILLIAM (spoken)
It's pronounced Barfee; there's an accent aigu!

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
Uh, I'm not sure who this girl is...

MARCY (spoken)
Marcy Park, recent transfer.

LOGAINNE
Winner's destination
Washington, D.C.

SPELLERS
Plasma t.v. in a fancey hotel
Where they treat you well
All because you love to spell
We spell!

MS. PERETTI
It's a marvelous memory
If you win the spelling bee
One's life improves from A to Z
The minute you are crowned here
I see a trophy held by me
And the one I want
Did I swell?
Oh the stories I could tell
But bragarts
Don't do well around here

OLIVE (spoken)
Hi, I'm Olive Ostrovsky
Do you know where I check in?


WILLIAM (spoken)
Shut up!

LEAF
At the 25th Annual
We memorize the manual

SPELLERS
About how to spell these words
Words that require thought
People think we're
Automatons
But that is exactly what we're
Not

MARCY
We hear the word

LOGAINNE
We breathe

LEAF
We wait

SPELLERS
Unlike idiots
We ideate

MS. PERETTI (spoken)
To ideate means to form an image or idea; to think

LEAF
At the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

LOGAINNE
We feel no animosity

GIRL SPELLERS
And yet our heads are spinning

WILLIAM
We are
The slightest bit bizarre

MARCY
But since the time is now

LEAF
Holy cow

LOGAINNE
We shal make a solemn vow
To concentrate
On winning

ALL
We concentrate on winning
At the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
We speak so damn convincingly

MS. PERETTI
They're nervous but they're grinning

LOGAINNE, OLIVE
It seems
We're living out our dreams

BOY SPELLERS
Which is a very nice, very nice
Very very very nice

ALL
Very nice, very nice
Very very very nice
Very nice
Beginning

MS. PERETTI
25th Annual
