Synopsis One

A boy has just discovered his girlfriend has been cheating on him. He feels completely betrayed and is immediately furious with his girlfriend and the other guy. In his anger, he decides to take a knife into school to exact revenge on the other guy. He is clearly irrational and his emotional instability is predominant as he paces around the school.

Eventually, he sees his girlfriend, she is wondering why he didn't meet with her as soon as he got to school; like he usually does. It isn't instinctively apparent to her why her boyfriend is acting unusually quiet and withdrawn when she talks to him until she notices the knife at the back of his jeans. She breaks down, confessing she's been cheating on him and that she feels guilty and regretful. She tries to convince him that using the knife is a stupid idea and that he will get in serious trouble if he's even caught with it. He pays no attention to what she's saying; he only has one thing on his mind.

He continues his frenzied search for the other guy with his girlfriend close behind; trying to prevent him acting upon the situation in such a dangerous way. She attempts to come to an understanding with him but it's too late for that. Without thinking, he turns to his girlfriend, pins her to the wall and plunges the knife into her stomach. He can't believe what he's done as she lays slumped on the floor clutching her wound. A teacher suddenly hurries to aid the girl after hearing her scream with excruciating pain. The boy can't even fathom what he's done and with an unstable mind, he drops the blood soaked knife and runs.
