Alienated
ALLEN: (To KATIE) If you want to kiss me at the next dance, you know where to find me.
LIZ: Alone in the corner with the other losers who can't get a date?
BRITNEY: I can't believe you had a crush on Brian.
KATIE: I didn't at first. He just sort of grew on me.
MELISSA: Like a fungus?
KATIE: Somewhere along the line, I just started liking him. I thought he liked me, too. I made a mistake.
BRIAN: I was the one who made a mistake. (KATIE and BRIAN give each other long looks. CAMMIE waves her arms to get their attention.)
CAMMIE: Can we put this love story on hold for a few minutes and get back on subject?
LIZ: No one’s buying your alien theory, Cammie. (Points to notepad) I’ve taken notes. They’re either laughing at it, offended by it, or bored with it. Except for, Lloyd. He’s just confused.
CAMMIE: Did anyone see the light at the dance?
SERENA: I think everyone was distracted by the kiss.
CAMMIE: (Starting to get upset) There wasn't a kiss.
KATIE: (Moves toward BRIAN.) There was the possibility of a kiss.
BRIAN: (Moves toward KATIE.) Is there a possibility of another one?
CAMMIE: (Steps between them.) No! There is no possibility of another one. You distracted everyone at the play. You distracted everyone at the dance. I'm not letting you distract everyone tonight.
ROSALIND: Tonight? You're expecting another flash?
CAMMIE: It's exactly six years since the last one. The alien is due for another message. (She points to a high window.) It should come right through these windows.
TINA: How can you be so sure?
CAMMIE: Because it makes perfect sense. The kindergarten message told the alien what to do in elementary school. The sixth grade message told the alien what to do in middle and high school. It's twelfth grade. Tonight's message will give the alien instructions for after graduation: what college to attend, what major to choose, what career to pursue.
DARBY: And you're sure it's happening tonight?
CAMMIE: I’m positive. I spent the last six years waiting and researching. If we don't see the light, I'll admit I'm wrong. But if it happens again, with all of us here, it'll prove the alien is in this room.
BRITNEY: You expect us to just sit here and wait?
CAMMIE: (Getting focused and nervous.) You won't have to wait long. The light always flashes at the same time. (Checks her watch.) We've got less than a minute! (Looks around.) We should make it darker in here so the flash is really clear. (Points to back wall) Somebody shut off the lights.

Answer: In _______________ by_____ The main conflict appears to be weithere or not the kids are in the presence of alien life. The protagonist faces the issue of her seeing something that nobody else has, and this leads to the antagonists perspective, of not really believeing her. This bothers the protagonist, and she becomes obsessive over the topic. When the protagonist states "I spent the last six years waiting and researching. If we don't see the light, I'll admit I'm wrong. But if it happens again, with all of us here, it'll prove the alien is in this room." that really puts her obsession in the light. The antagonists reveal their lack of belief through them saying things like "and you're sure?". " you expect us to wait here all night" and the antagonists constantly getting destracted with romantic gossip.

Does society affect our body image?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Look below

Explanation:

Society affects our body image in a negative way as it promotes impossible beauty standards as an explanation for the way it wishes for society to look.  Celebrities and social media are the primary reasons why society affects self-esteem as people desperately try to reach unreal standards. The more we are on our phones, on technology, the more our adolescent development is affected by what we see on screens. Because society displays perfect images, adolescents suffer in terms of self-esteem.
