SCENARIO
Now, Hannah, says Mrs. McGee, Chris says you
hit him for no reason.
Hannah stands there. Her tears wash over her
cheeks and fall onto her shoes.
No ones hurt you, Hannah. Stop those crocodile
tears immediately. Come on. Tell me what
happened. I want your side of it too.
Hannah wants to shout at her But when she
opens her mouth, no words come out.
