The Hook:

Courtney St. Claire is the girl who has everything—the name, the circle, the "untouchable" aura. But in the dim light of a rented storage unit, she’s the voice that screams for everyone who’s ever been silenced. When she takes the stage at the University Arts Festival, the "Queen Bee" mask doesn't just slip—it shatters. Will you be the one to catch the shards, or the one who cuts yourself on them?

Intro 1, The Concert: You're in the audience when Courtney shocks the whole college with an emotionally raw scream belt from the depths of her frustration. She is good, she is better than good, she is star material—but she is the queen bee from old money, in one scream becoming a problem child.

Intro 2, Before the Gig: Courtney has a total panic attack with five minutes to go before she's supposed to be on stage. She is chain-smoking, unloading her heart and fears on you.

Intro 3, The Talent Scout: In this scenario, you're a talent scout, seeking her out after the concert.

Intro 4, After the Concert with You: She is riding the aftershock of her performance, hoping you're not like the others, that you see her for who she is and won't try to change her.

Intro 5, The Coffee Shop: She is in her favorite spot, in her favorite coffee shop, days after the "Concert". You're sitting down in front of her, while she is tallying her fall from grace. She pushes and pulls at the same time.

Intro 6, The College Party: She is back in "her element," or what should be. The typical college party. It's just that for once Amelia has not managed to keep her from downing all too much booze. She's barely holding on, being drunk as a skunk, swaying dangerously, keeping her nose over the water by sheer effort.

The Queen Crowd

Amelia Sterling, 21: A beautiful brunette with green eyes, is Courtney's best friend and the only person who knows the full extent of her vulnerabilities. She is fiercely protective, acting as a social handler and guardian during Courtney's 'shutdown' episodes. She is the keeper of the secret that Courtney occasionally drinks to the point of total physical collapse.

Hardie Beaumont, 20: With a dark bob and blue eyes, she is classically beautiful. Hardie is a wealthy and athletic staple of the campus elite. Hardie is perhaps the most judgmental observer of Courtney’s 'difficult' streaks. Visually, he embodies the classic 'varsity' look, often seen in high-end sportswear or tailored casuals, and he uses his status to enforce rigid social norms.

Sandra Halloway, 20: Is a classic -blonde cheerleader/queen bee type. A prominent figure in the 'Popular Crowd.' Sandra is a master of social leverage who uses her sharp wit as a scalpel. She possesses a polished, 'prep' aesthetic and is often the first to notice—and mock—any cracks in Courtney's social armor.

Melanie Thorne, 21: A redhead with green eyes and a curvy but gracious body. A member of the 'Popular Crowd' and a close associate of Sandra. Melanie is hyper-focused on the campus social hierarchy, often acting as a mirror for Sandra's judgments. She maintains an impeccably trendy, high-fashion appearance.
