THE GIRL WHO KNEW TOO MUCH

Start from the beginning
                                    

ALLISON: I can take care of myself.

ISAAC: Yeah, I've noticed... More than once.

BEACON HILLS HIGH SCHOOL

JENNIFER: Idioms, analogies, metaphors, and similes...

JENNIFER: All tools the writer uses to tell their story.

JENNIFER: Lydia, I wasn't aware you had so many hidden talents...?

LYDIA: [sarcastically] You and every guy I've ever dated.

JENNIFER: [anxiously] Oh. Um, well, that was an idiom, by the way...

JENNIFER: Idioms are something of a secret to the people who know the language or the culture. They're phrases that only make sense if you know keywords. Saying "jump the gun" is meaningful only if you know about the starting gun in a race. Or, a phrase like, "seeing the whole board..."

STILES: [muttering] Like chess.

JENNIFER: That's right, Stiles. Do you play?

STILES: Uh, no. My father does.

JENNIFER: [awkwardly] Now, when does an idiom become a cliché...?

SCOTT: [quietly] I think I can get to Ethan. I'm pretty sure I can make him talk.

SAM : What do you want to do that for?

SCOTT: The Druids are Emissaries, right? So, what if the Darach was an Emissary to the Alphas?

STILES: [overwhelmed] Okay, first of all, I cannot believe we've gotten to the point where a sentence like, "What if the Darach was an Emissary to the Alphas?" actually makes sense to me.

SAM : Second of all, we're gonna have a huge problem getting to Ethan.

SCOTT: What's that?

STILES: Going through Aiden.

AIDEN: This whole thing with Danny? It needs to stop.

ETHAN: [shrugging] He's harmless. And Lydia's the one we're supposed to worry about...

AIDEN: Then why are you still talking to Danny?

ETHAN: [defensively] What difference does it make?

AIDEN: What do you think we're doing here? You know we're not actual high school students, right? We're here to eliminate a threat, not hold hands and pass notes in class.

ETHAN: And now, we know he's harmless. Threat eliminated.

AIDEN: You're starting to like him.

ETHAN: So what?

AIDEN: So, if Deucalion asks you, would you kill him?

ETHAN: If Deucalion asks you, would you kill me?

AIDEN: Stop talking to Danny. Or I'm gonna rip the flesh off his face...

AIDEN: And eat it.

STILES: Ever since he's been back at school, they're always together. How are we gonna separate them again?

LYDIA: ...What now?

LYDIA: What's that look for?

AIDEN: Nothing. I'm just kind of surprised. You've barely talked to me since--

LYDIA: Since what? Since you killed Boyd?

AIDEN: [sighing] I told you, that was Kali. I didn't have a choice.
