The Perks of Being a Wallflower Script

The Perks of Being a Wallflower Script

Charlie appears to be upset after what he had done at the party, as he was dating Mary Elizabeth, but had decided to kiss Sam instead in the game of “Truth or Dare” for his dare of having to kiss the prettiest girl in the room. He destroyed his relationship with Mary Elizabeth, and has strained his friendship with Sam in the process. Patrick has told Charlie to stay away from the group of friends for a while. Charlie does not know what to do, as besides there group of friends, he has no other friends to be with, and he is going to be all alone, like how he was at the beginning of high school. He has no friends to talk to about what he had done, so Charlie decides to go to the one person who could always talk to.

At Aunt Helen’s grave, Charlie appears upset.

Charlie: Aunt Helen, I made a mistake, and I don’t know what to do now. Honestly, I don’t know what to do anymore. I don’t know what’s wrong with me, I don’t know why I am the way that I am.

Charlie stops talking for a moment, swiping away a falling tear.

Charlie: Why did I have to kiss Sam? She’s one of my best friends, and I shouldn’t have done it, even though I still like her, but I am with Mary Elizabeth. Correction, I was with Mary Elizabeth. Why did I have to kiss Sam? Why did I have to hurt Mary Elizabeth? She didn’t deserve that, and Sam didn’t deserve that either. I’ve messed up everything.

Charlie: Aunt Helen, I wish you were still here. Patrick told me to say away from the group of friends for a while. I don’t have any other friends, I am all alone again. I don’t know if I can do it again, be all alone.

Charlie: I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but something is definitely wrong with me. I can feel it again, I don’t know what it is though, but I can feel it coming back. I haven’t felt it for a while now, I think having Sam, and Patrick, and the others in the group of friends made me better. I mean they didn’t make me better, but they at least made me feel not so alone anymore. I guess that is really what friends are for. Correction, at least that’s what friends were for. They aren’t my friends anymore, at least I think they won’t want to be my friends anymore, after what I’ve done.

Charlie: Aunt Helen, I wish you were here with me right now.

Charlie stops talking, swiping away profusely falling tears.

Charlie drops to his knees in front of Aunt Helen’s grave, and tombstone, with his head in his hands, hiding his face away.

Charlie: I know I said I wasn’t going to cry anymore, unless it was for something worth crying for. I shouldn’t
