10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU
|
written by Karen McCullah Lutz & Kirsten Smith
|
transcription by GarethGarethGareth@yahoo.com
|
based loosely on “Taming of the Shrew", by William Shakespeare
|
Well, here it is: The complete transcription of 10 Things I Hate About You
|
from the movie itself. The original script available on the web is about
|
as similar to the final movie as Rocky Balboa is to Rocky the Squirrel.
|
So, by gum, somebody had to get it right. Text found in [brackets]
|
indicates moments where I’ve guessed what the characters are saying, due to
|
mumbling, or my own lack of hearing, or both.

EXT. PADUA HIGH SCHOOL - DAY
|
Welcome to Padua High, your typical upper-middle-class high school in
|
Seattle, Washington.
|
EXT. PADUA HIGH SCHOOL, THE STREET OUTSIDE - DAY
|
Two cookie-cutter-cute girls sing along in their car to a bit of popular
|
fluff music.
|
KAT STRATFORD, eighteen, pretty -- but trying hard not to be (and failing)
|
-- pulls her rundown car up next to theirs and scowls with indignation at
|
their choice of music.
|
EXT. PADUA HIGH SCHOOL, FRONT STEPS- DAY
|
Kat hurries toward the front door of what appears to be the Wayne Manor version
|
of an ordinary high school. She approaches another cookie-cutter-cutie pasting
|
an advert for prom on the wall, and tears it down in passing.
|
PROM POSTER GIRL
|
Hey!
|
INT. GUIDANCE COUNSELOR'S OFFICE - DAY
|
CAMERON JAMES, a clean-cut, easy-going new kid at school with an optimistic,
|
innocent face, sits facing MISS PERKY, a conservative spinster stereotype
|
turned on its head. She’s in the middle of composing some racy
|
lines from her pulp romance-novel-in-progress on her laptop.
|
MISS PERKY
|
So, Cameron. Here you go. (reviews his transcript)
|
9 schools in 10 years, my my... Army brat?
|
CAMERON
|
Yeah. My dad’s a...
|
MISS PERKY
|
That’s enough.
|
I'm sure you won't find Padua any
|
different than your old school. Same
|
little asswipe shit-for-brains
|
everywhere.
|
CAMERON
|
Excuse me. Did you just say... Am I in
|
the right office?
|
MISS PERKY
|
Not anymore you’re not. I’ve got deviants to see
|
and a novel to finish. Now scoot. Scoot!
|
CAMERON
|
Okay. Thanks.
|
Cameron rises to leave and passes PATRICK VERONA, a smug, longhaired
|
Australian, who’s on his way in.
|
Miss Perky looks down at her file and up at Patrick
|
MISS PERKY
|
(continuing)
|
Patrick Verona. I see we're making our
|
visits a weekly ritual.
|
She gives him a disapproving glance. He answers with a charming
|
smile.
|
PATRICK
|
Only so we can have these moments together.
|
Should I, uh, get the lights?
|
MISS PERKY
|
Oh very clever, kangaroo boy. Says here you exposed yourself
|
in the cafeteria?
|
PATRICK
|
I was joking with the lunch lady. It was a bratwurst.
