JUNO
                         Not really. I'm sixteen. I'm old 
                         enough to tell when people are acting 
                         like total a-holes! GERTA
                         So, Juno. First off, how far along 
                         are you?

                                     JUNO
                         I'm a junior. JUNO
                              (aghast)
                         But you're old!

                                     MARK
                         I... How do you think of me, Juno? 
                         Why are you here? JUNO
                         Oh. Uh, my stepmom took me to the 
                         doctor yesterday and they said I was 
                         twelve weeks.

               Vanessa enters with the refreshments on a tray. Mark suddenly sees Juno for what she is -- a teenage girl.

                                     MARK
                         I'm such an idiot. I can't believe 
                         what an idiot I am. JUNO
                         You don't know anything about me!

                                     BREN
                         I know enough. Juno nods.

                                     LEAH
                         No way! She's pretty.

                                     JUNO
                         You sound shocked or something. Paulie is on the floor surrounded by old quizzes, studying 
               like the tortured brainiac he is. Mrs. Bleeker opens the 
               bedroom door. Juno appears. Paulie jumps, startled. Juno has her pipe with her.

                                     JUNO
                         The Penny Saver sucks.

                                     LEAH
                         Yeah, but it sucks for free. Juno heads into the foyer and up the stairs. We see a posed 
               photo of Mark and Vanessa in the stairwell. Their house is 
               beautiful, but frigid. Juno rubs her arms, shivering. Juno enters.

                                     JUNO
                         Hi Dad.

                                     MAC
                         Hey, big puffy version of Junebug. 
                         Where have you been? It's obvious from Juno's tears and flushed face that she's 
               lying. Vanessa instantly goes pale with fear, but she tries 
               her hardest to seem serene and "together" in front of Juno. JUNO
                         Prom is for wenises, anyway. Once 
                         you're old enough to go, it's not 
                         cool anymore. JUNO
                              (explains)
                         It's kicking.

               Vanessa nods in understanding then begins summoning the 
               courage for an unusual request. Juno sees him and bursts into sudden, ragged sobs. Mac glances 
               at her, alarmed. Paulie moves toward the bed. Mac clears his 
               throat, gets up and leaves the room. JUNO
                         See? Nothing to worry about.

               Vanessa chuckles tightly, clearly embarrassed by her show of 
               emotion. JUNO
                         Yeah. For sure. I like you guys.

               Juno looks at Mark. VANESSA
                         Juno? What's going on?

                                     JUNO
                         Nothing. Juno is lying on her back on the bed, staring at the ceiling. 
               She's more pregnant than we've ever seen her. She revs a JUNO MacGUFF stands on a placid street in a nondescript 
               subdivision, facing the curb. It's FALL. Juno is sixteen
Mark suddenly sees Juno for what she is -- a teenage girl.

                                     MARK
                         I'm such an idiot. I can't believe 
                         what an idiot I am. BLEEKER
                         You know it's okay.

                                     JUNO
                         Also, I think I'm in love with you. She and Bleeker exchange glances as they play. They smile 
               ambiguously. Juno leans over and kisses Bleeker on the cheek. A wave of REALIZATION crosses Juno's face.

                                     JUNO
                         I sort of already have. JUNO (V.O.)
                         There he was.

               Juno looks at the baby in awe, then her eyes begin to 
               flutter... and she passes out. JUNO
                         Yeah. For sure. I like you guys.

               Juno looks at Mark. JUNO
                         I think it's because my heart starts 
                         pounding when I see you.

                                     BLEEKER
                         Mine too. Juno nods.

                                     LEAH
                         No way! She's pretty.

                                     JUNO
                         You sound shocked or something. Juno sees him and bursts into sudden, ragged sobs. Mac glances 
               at her, alarmed. Paulie moves toward the bed. Mac clears his 
               throat, gets up and leaves the room. It's obvious from Juno's tears and flushed face that she's 
               lying. Vanessa instantly goes pale with fear, but she tries 
               her hardest to seem serene and "together" in front of Juno. JUNO
                         Yeah, but didn't you love Vanessa 
                         when you married her? If you love JUNO
                         Basically, I'm completely smitten 
                         with you, and I don't care if I'm Paulie climbs onto the hospital bed and carefully puts his 
               arm around Juno. She leans into him, letting herself go for 
               the first time in months. We see the object of his gaze is Juno's black and white 
               YEARBOOK PHOTO. Next to it, we see a sloppy, handwritten MAC
                         You mean like couples?

                                     JUNO
                         Yeah, like people in love. JUNO
                         You are always trying to keep it 
                         real. I'm in love with how you feel. 
                         I don't see what anyone can see, in 
                         anyone else but you. Juno rests her head on Mark's chest. They dance in silence 
               for a few moments, then stop moving. Mark pulls Juno as close 
               as he possibly can, given her expanding girth. JUNO
                         Dad, it's not about that. I just 
                         need to know that it's possible for 
                         two people to stay happy together 
                         forever. Or at least for a few years. JUNO
                         Shit, yeah. Close it up.

               Vanessa is clearly ecstatic. JUNO
                         Oh man, I can just picture you slow 
                         dancing like a dork!

               She mockingly places her hands on Mark's waist and moves 
               back and forth stiffly.
MARK
                              (passionate singing)
                         I WANT TO BE THE...
                              (notices Vanessa)
                         Oh, sorry honey... MARK
                         You're something else.

               A door suddenly slams upstairs. Vanessa's home. MARK LORING appears next to Vanessa. He's a boyishly 
               attractive guy in his mid-thirties. MARK
                         I don't know. There's just things I 
                         still want to do.

                                     VANESSA
                         Like what? Be a rock star? VANESSA
                         No, it's fine. Thanks for making the 
                         call, I guess.

               Mark nods and sits down. MARK
                         Wow. That shirt is working hard.

                                     JUNO
                              (furtive)
                         Is Vanessa here? VANESSA
                         We're actually, finally doing this?

                                     MARK
                         Looks like it, yeah. INT. LORING HOUSE - DINING ROOM - NIGHT

               Vanessa takes a sip and continues to let the days events 
               sink in. After a beat, Mark comes down the stairs to join 
               her. VANESSA
                              (to her guests)
                         Will you excuse me?

                         I'm leaving Vanessa.

                              (quiet at first)
                         What? Mark and Vanessa stand silently in the nursery. The walls 
               are primed slate gray. A single ANTIQUE ROCKING CHAIR sits MARK
                         Well, sort of. Vanessa likes Madison 
                         for a girl. VANESSA
                         You're doing an amazing and selfless 
                         thing for us.

                                     MARK
                         Vanessa has wanted a baby since we 
                         got married. Juno glances at Mark and again at Vanessa. Vanessa looks 
               embarrassed.

                                     MARK
                         Cold feet. VANESSA
                         Can you see it?

               Mark stares at the wall, looking lost.

               INT. RIDGEDALE MALL - DAY VANESSA
                         What are you saying?

               A long hideous beat.

                                     MARK
                         It just feels a little like bad 
                         timing. MARK
                         Don't mock me.

               Vanessa sighs. It's done. Juno looks totally betrayed. She doesn't respond. Vanessa 
               looks at Juno's expression and knows Mark is lying.

                                     VANESSA
                         What did you do? JUNO (V.O.)
                         They were Mark and Vanessa Loring, 
                         and they were beautiful even in black 
                         and white. MARK
                              (ignores the comment)
                         Ever since, it's just been like a 
                         ticking clock.

               This stops Vanessa. Juno looks offended.
JUNO
                         Yeah. For sure. I like you guys.

               Juno looks at Mark. MARK
                         Here's to dovetailing interests.

               He raises his mug in a toast and Juno clinks it awkwardly. MARK
                         I actually know this one.

                                     JUNO
                         You do? MARK
                         That suits you.

                                     JUNO
                         Uh, thanks. MARK
                         Technically, that would be kickin' 
                         it Old Testament.

               Mark and Juno lock eyes. MARK
                              (joking)
                         Oh, is he bald and amorphous?

                         No, he's the dad. INT. LORING HOUSE - UPSTAIRS HALLWAY - DAY

               Juno opens the bathroom door and instantly BUMPS into Mark. MARK
                         Come on, I have something for you.

               He gestures for Juno to follow him into the house. MARK
                         What are you?

                                     JUNO
                         I don't know. Mark suddenly sees Juno for what she is -- a teenage girl.

                                     MARK
                         I'm such an idiot. I can't believe 
                         what an idiot I am. Juno rests her head on Mark's chest. They dance in silence 
               for a few moments, then stop moving. Mark pulls Juno as close 
               as he possibly can, given her expanding girth. MARK
                         Nope. We're safe.

               He and Juno smile conspiratorially.

                                     JUNO
                         Cool. Mark opens the door. Juno stands there, looking radiantly 
               knocked-up. She holds a stack of CDs. Mark breaks into a 
               grin. Mark puts his hands on what remains of Juno's waist. She 
               drapes her arms around his neck self-consciously.

                                     JUNO
                         Oh, okay. Like this. Juno backs away.

                         I... How do you think of me, Juno? 
                         Why are you here? Juno turns to leave, then shoots one furious look back at 
               Mark. Juno looks totally betrayed. She doesn't respond. Vanessa 
               looks at Juno's expression and knows Mark is lying.

                              connecting)
                         Yeah, they really want you... they 
                         really want you... and I do to.
                              (both blush) She holds her WRIST up to Mark's twitching nostrils.

               Mark inhales.
JUNO
                         This is the baby. Your baby.

               Vanessa drops the shopping bags, sick with relief.

                                     VANESSA
                         Oh my God... It's obvious from Juno's tears and flushed face that she's 
               lying. Vanessa instantly goes pale with fear, but she tries 
               her hardest to seem serene and "together" in front of Juno. JUNO
                         See? Nothing to worry about.

               Vanessa chuckles tightly, clearly embarrassed by her show of 
               emotion. The elevator door opens, revealing... Vanessa.

                                     VANESSA
                         Juno?

               Juno tries her best to look enthused. VANESSA
                         No, no, I don't think that, Juno. 
                         It's just that, we went through a 
                         situation before where it didn't 
                         work out. JUNO
                              (explains)
                         It's kicking.

               Vanessa nods in understanding then begins summoning the 
               courage for an unusual request. Vanessa kneels down next to the swell of Juno's belly. JUNO
                         Shit, yeah. Close it up.

               Vanessa is clearly ecstatic. Vanessa JUMPS and makes a strangled sound.

                                     VANESSA
                         Juno! God, you startled me. What are 
                         you doing here? What's wrong? Juno intercepts her breathlessly, clutching the ULTRASOUND 
               photo. Mark trails behind her.

                                     JUNO
                         Hi Vanessa! Juno heads into the foyer and up the stairs. We see a posed 
               photo of Mark and Vanessa in the stairwell. Their house is 
               beautiful, but frigid. Juno rubs her arms, shivering. Juno ain't buying it.

                                     VANESSA
                              (to Mark)
                         Why don't we let Juno go home and we 
                         can discuss this later on, okay? JUNO
                              (hushed)
                         That's her. That's Vanessa Loring.

                                     LEAH
                         Of the Penny Saver Lorings? Leah gives a look to Juno as if she's about to barf.

                                     VANESSA
                         Can you hear me sweet angel? VANESSA
                         Juno? What's going on?

                                     JUNO
                         Nothing. Vanessa is admiring the belly, when Juno grimaces.

                                     JUNO
                         Dude, it's moshing all over.

               Vanessa looks confused. Juno looks totally betrayed. She doesn't respond. Vanessa 
               looks at Juno's expression and knows Mark is lying.

                                     VANESSA
                         What did you do? Vanessa awkwardly leads them into her home.

                                     VANESSA
                         Can I take your coats?

                                     JUNO
                         Sure. Juno reaches the top of the stairs and scrambles toward the 
               front door, only to be intercepted by Vanessa, who's returning INT. LORING HOUSE - ENTRY WAY - DAY

               Vanessa and Mark walk Juno out. Juno peers at some shopping 
               bags from various kids stores.
MARK
                         I'm leaving Vanessa.

                                     JUNO
                              (quiet at first)
                         What? VANESSA
                         What are you saying?

               A long hideous beat.

                                     MARK
                         It just feels a little like bad 
                         timing. Juno looks totally betrayed. She doesn't respond. Vanessa 
               looks at Juno's expression and knows Mark is lying.

                                     VANESSA
                         What did you do? MARK
                         That's not the point. We're just not 
                         in love anymore. MARK
                         I don't know. There's just things I 
                         still want to do.

                                     VANESSA
                         Like what? Be a rock star? MARK
                              (passionate singing)
                         I WANT TO BE THE...
                              (notices Vanessa)
                         Oh, sorry honey... MARK
                         I didn't do anything... I just... 
                         I've just been thinking.

                                     VANESSA
                              (you've been thinking?)
                         What? Mark opens the door. There's a folded piece of paper sitting 
               on the doormat. He squints and sees Juno pulling away in the 
               van. MARK
                         Don't mock me.

               Vanessa sighs. It's done. MARK
                              (ignores the comment)
                         Ever since, it's just been like a 
                         ticking clock.

               This stops Vanessa. Juno looks offended. INT. LORING HOUSE - DINING ROOM - NIGHT

               Vanessa takes a sip and continues to let the days events 
               sink in. After a beat, Mark comes down the stairs to join 
               her. MARK
                         It's just not working out, but I'm 
                         getting my own place in the city... VANESSA
                         You're doing an amazing and selfless 
                         thing for us.

                                     MARK
                         Vanessa has wanted a baby since we 
                         got married. Vanessa looks defeated.

                                     MARK
                         I never said I'd be a great father. VANESSA
                         We're actually, finally doing this?

                                     MARK
                         Looks like it, yeah. Juno glances at Mark and again at Vanessa. Vanessa looks 
               embarrassed.

                                     MARK
                         Cold feet. MARK
                         You're something else.

               A door suddenly slams upstairs. Vanessa's home. Juno and Mac exit. Mark shuts the door. All is silent in the 
               foyer. Mark, Vanessa and Gerta stand motionless. Gerta pumps 
               her fist triumphantly, trying to create a mood of celebration. VANESSA
                         No, it's fine. Thanks for making the 
                         call, I guess.

               Mark nods and sits down. Mark seems visibly embarrassed by Vanessa's manic demeanor.

                                     JUNO
                         I'm going to say I'm 104% sure.
Juno sees him and bursts into sudden, ragged sobs. Mac glances 
               at her, alarmed. Paulie moves toward the bed. Mac clears his 
               throat, gets up and leaves the room. Paulie is on the floor surrounded by old quizzes, studying 
               like the tortured brainiac he is. Mrs. Bleeker opens the 
               bedroom door. Juno appears. Paulie jumps, startled. JUNO
                         Oh. It's, well, it's Paulie Bleeker.

               Bren and Mac burst into shocked laughter. Paulie climbs onto the hospital bed and carefully puts his 
               arm around Juno. She leans into him, letting herself go for 
               the first time in months. JUNO
                         What?

                                     MAC
                         Paulie Bleeker? I didn't know he had 
                         it in him! It's obvious from Juno's tears and flushed face that she's 
               lying. Vanessa instantly goes pale with fear, but she tries 
               her hardest to seem serene and "together" in front of Juno. Juno, Leah and Bren become immediately defensive. Juno turns to leave, then shoots one furious look back at 
               Mark. JUNO
                              (indignant)
                         No, it's not. Paulie is virile, by 
                         the way. He was very good in... chair. Bleeker's mom escorts Juno wordlessly up the stairs and down 
               the hallway to Paulie's bedroom. Juno discreetly tries to Mark suddenly sees Juno for what she is -- a teenage girl.

                                     MARK
                         I'm such an idiot. I can't believe 
                         what an idiot I am. Juno glares at Leah.

                                     VANESSA
                              (confused)
                         No... Juno looks totally betrayed. She doesn't respond. Vanessa 
               looks at Juno's expression and knows Mark is lying.

                                     VANESSA
                         What did you do? INT. LORING HOUSE - UPSTAIRS HALLWAY - DAY

               Juno opens the bathroom door and instantly BUMPS into Mark. We see Leah holding Juno's FOOT, which is shaking. Leah's 
               shirt is soaked. She rolls her eyes and mouths "Fuck you" at The automatic doors of the store part to reveal Juno's flushed 
               serious face. She carelessly flings the empty juice container BLEEKER'S MOM answers, visibly annoyed. Her eyes drift down 
               to Juno's middle. JUNO
                         I'll handle this. I'm really good at 
                         diffusing mom-type rage.

               Juno jumps up and rushes out. BREN
                              (interrupting)
                         I didn't even know you were sexually 
                         active!

               Juno cringes upon hearing her most-hated term. They stare at her quizzically. Bleeker spots Juno approaching 
               and jogs up to the chainlink fence.
Mark opens the door. There's a folded piece of paper sitting 
               on the doormat. He squints and sees Juno pulling away in the 
               van. Juno heads into the foyer and up the stairs. We see a posed 
               photo of Mark and Vanessa in the stairwell. Their house is 
               beautiful, but frigid. Juno rubs her arms, shivering. MARK

                              (quiet at first)
                         What? We hear the front door closing. Vanessa and Mark look over 
               and notice that Juno has escaped the conflict.

               EXT. LORING HOUSE - AFTERNOON Juno reaches the top of the stairs and scrambles toward the 
               front door, only to be intercepted by Vanessa, who's returning Vanessa JUMPS and makes a strangled sound.

                         Juno! God, you startled me. What are 
                         you doing here? What's wrong? VANESSA
                         Yeah. Yeah, it kind of does.

                                     MARK
                         Juno was nice enough to bring this 
                         by for us. JUNO
                         See? Nothing to worry about.

               Vanessa chuckles tightly, clearly embarrassed by her show of 
               emotion. Vanessa looks pain-stricken as Mark helps Juno with her bag.

               EXT. MACGUFF HOUSE - NIGHT

               Juno kicks the snow off her shoes before she enters. Vanessa awkwardly leads them into her home.

                                     VANESSA
                         Can I take your coats?

                                     JUNO
                         Sure. The receptionist cranes her neck and sees the front door 
               drift shut. Juno's figure recedes into the distance as she 
               tears off down the street, running as fast as she can. Juno and Mac exit. Mark shuts the door. All is silent in the 
               foyer. Mark, Vanessa and Gerta stand motionless. Gerta pumps 
               her fist triumphantly, trying to create a mood of celebration. JUNO
                         This is the baby. Your baby.

               Vanessa drops the shopping bags, sick with relief.

                                     VANESSA
                         Oh my God... JUNO
                              (hushed)
                         That's her. That's Vanessa Loring.

                                     LEAH
                         Of the Penny Saver Lorings? VANESSA appears in the doorway. Juno immediately puts down 
               the guitar. Mark doesn't notice her immediately. Juno ain't buying it.

                                     VANESSA
                              (to Mark)
                         Why don't we let Juno go home and we 
                         can discuss this later on, okay? It's obvious from Juno's tears and flushed face that she's 
               lying. Vanessa instantly goes pale with fear, but she tries 
               her hardest to seem serene and "together" in front of Juno. She waves and heads for the door.

                                     MARK
                              (to Juno)
                         Hey, don't forget your bag. Leah gives a look to Juno as if she's about to barf.

                                     VANESSA
                         Can you hear me sweet angel? VANESSA
                              (abruptly)
                         Right. Well, Juno, your parents must 
                         be wondering where you are. You might 
                         want to head home.
Mark suddenly sees Juno for what she is -- a teenage girl.

                                     MARK
                         I'm such an idiot. I can't believe 
                         what an idiot I am. He nods toward her belly.

                                     MAC
                         Obviously.

               Juno laughs and hugs her father, planting a smooch on his 
               cheek. JUNO (V.O.)
                         There he was.

               Juno looks at the baby in awe, then her eyes begin to 
               flutter... and she passes out. It's obvious from Juno's tears and flushed face that she's 
               lying. Vanessa instantly goes pale with fear, but she tries 
               her hardest to seem serene and "together" in front of Juno. A wave of REALIZATION crosses Juno's face.

                                     JUNO
                         I sort of already have. Juno sees him and bursts into sudden, ragged sobs. Mac glances 
               at her, alarmed. Paulie moves toward the bed. Mac clears his 
               throat, gets up and leaves the room. JUNO
                         Sure, Dad.

               Mac nods, satisfied, then contemplates the situation dismally. JUNO
                         Dad, it's not about that. I just 
                         need to know that it's possible for 
                         two people to stay happy together 
                         forever. Or at least for a few years. Juno heads into the foyer and up the stairs. We see a posed 
               photo of Mark and Vanessa in the stairwell. Their house is 
               beautiful, but frigid. Juno rubs her arms, shivering. Juno nods.

                         No way! She's pretty.

                         See? Nothing to worry about.

               Vanessa chuckles tightly, clearly embarrassed by her show of 
               emotion. JUNO

               INTERCUT WITH:

               INT. MACGUFF HOUSE - MAC'S WORK DESK - SAME Paulie climbs onto the hospital bed and carefully puts his 
               arm around Juno. She leans into him, letting herself go for 
               the first time in months. JUNO
                         Yeah. For sure. I like you guys.

               Juno looks at Mark. Juno, her father MAC, her stepmother BREN, and LIBERTY BELL 
               sit at a very typical kitchen table, eating dinner. MAC 
               shovels food while chatting about his day. JUNO (V.O.)
                         But he figured it out anyway.

               Bleek takes off RUNNING toward the parking lot without 
               stopping to explain. His mother stands up, confused. Juno gives her the FINGER, not breaking the clinch with 
               Bleeker.

               INT. MACGUFF HOUSE - JUNO'S BEDROOM - MORNING Paulie is on the floor surrounded by old quizzes, studying 
               like the tortured brainiac he is. Mrs. Bleeker opens the 
               bedroom door. Juno appears. Paulie jumps, startled. Juno runs up to her car sobbing. She struggles with the keys, 
               but finally makes it into the Previa and drives off.

                         Shit, yeah. Close it up.

               Vanessa is clearly ecstatic.
The receptionist cranes her neck and sees the front door 
               drift shut. Juno's figure recedes into the distance as she 
               tears off down the street, running as fast as she can. Juno sees him and bursts into sudden, ragged sobs. Mac glances 
               at her, alarmed. Paulie moves toward the bed. Mac clears his 
               throat, gets up and leaves the room. Then she looks over and notices the FINGERNAILS of a nearby 
               teen, who looks as nervous as she does. The girl bites her 
               thumbnail and spits it onto the floor. It's a sparkling summer afternoon. Juno wheels her bicycle 
               out of the detached garage. She waves goodbye to Bren, who Bleeker retrieves a book from his open locker. Juno marches 
               up to him, belly leading the way. She grabs a dilapidated physics textbook. A few pages slip 
               out. STEVE RENDAZO (the same asshole who harassed her as she 
               walked to the drugstore) passes by in the hallway. Bleeker is startled to discover that Juno is outside waiting 
               for him. She has somehow arranged the living room set on the 
               front lawn, and is seated in the armchair, chewing a pipe

               jogger and chugging intermittently from the huge carton of 
               juice. We watch her breathlessly navigate suburbia, clearly 
               on a mission. A new SONG has begun. Mark closes his eyes in ecstasy and 
               walks toward the stereo. Juno follows him toward the source 
               of the music, looking perplexed by how happy he is. Paulie is on the floor surrounded by old quizzes, studying 
               like the tortured brainiac he is. Mrs. Bleeker opens the 
               bedroom door. Juno appears. Paulie jumps, startled. In the dim, reeking public bathroom, Juno hovers over the 
               commode with her boxer shorts around her ankles. She clumsily 
               tries to use the pregnancy test. Bren stitches a needlepoint pillow of a dog.

                         Why are you here? Then she looks over and notices the FINGERNAILS of a nearby

               for a few moments, then stop moving. Mark pulls Juno as close 
               as he possibly can, given her expanding girth. Bleeker glances at Juno's midsection, embarrassed.

               the first time since she became pregnant.

               After a beat, she begins to gather herself. Mark opens the door. Juno stands there, looking radiantly 
               knocked-up. She holds a stack of CDs. Mark breaks into a 
               grin. He shows the COMIC to Juno. It's called "Most Fruitful Yuki." 
               It depicts a pregnant JAPANESE GIRL kicking ass and taking

               that her baby might have a father. He stands up and holds

                         Bleeker decided he didn't want to

               scans the ad silently. Juno has her pipe with her.

                         The Penny Saver sucks.

                         Yeah, but it sucks for free. Juno nods.

                         in Saint Cloud are going to be the 
                         parents. Juno drags Leah behind a pillar and peers out from behind 
               it. They're watching a group of well-heeled women and their Leah fires a be quiet glance at Juno.

                         Did you say you were thinking about 
                         adoption? Paulie is on the floor surrounded by old quizzes, studying 
               like the tortured brainiac he is. Mrs. Bleeker opens the 
               bedroom door. Juno appears. Paulie jumps, startled. LEAH

               Bren looks understandably alarmed. Juno hastily attempts to 
               make the situation sound more legitimate. LEAH
                         When did you decide you were going

               Juno looks at the baby in awe, then her eyes begin to

                         No, they're the people who are

                         No, I heard you. I just can't give 
                         the baby to people who describe 
                         themselves as "wholesome." I'm looking

               Juno laughs and hugs her father, planting a smooch on his 
               cheek. JUNO
                         This is the baby. Your baby.

               Vanessa drops the shopping bags, sick with relief.

                         She thinks I'm using a fake name. 
                         Like Gene Simmons or Mother Teresa.

               The receptionist hands Juno the clipboard and a pen. JUNO (V.O.)
                         Bleeker decided he didn't want to 
                         see the baby. Neither did I, really. 
                         He didn't feel like ours. She waves and heads for the door.

                                     MARK
                              (to Juno)

                         Hey, Juno. Juno! Look at this one.

               She points to the paper and motions for Juno to look. Juno 
               scans the ad silently. JUNO
                         You should have gone to China. I 
                         heard they give away babies like 
                         free iPods. They shoot 'em out of 
                         those T-shirt guns at sports events. JUNO
                         How do you know I'm so poisonous? 
                         Like, what if the adoptive parents 
                         turn out to be evil molesters? Mark opens the door. Juno stands there, looking radiantly 
               knocked-up. She holds a stack of CDs. Mark breaks into a 
               grin. JUNO

                         dancing like a dork!

               She mockingly places her hands on Mark's waist and moves 
               back and forth stiffly. JUNO

               Juno looks at Mark. MARK
                         Here's to dovetailing interests.

               He raises his mug in a toast and Juno clinks it awkwardly. Juno rests her head on Mark's chest. They dance in silence 
               for a few moments, then stop moving. Mark pulls Juno as close 
               as he possibly can, given her expanding girth. INT. LORING HOUSE - UPSTAIRS HALLWAY - DAY

               Juno opens the bathroom door and instantly BUMPS into Mark. Mark puts his hands on what remains of Juno's waist. She 
               drapes her arms around his neck self-consciously.

                         really want you... and I do to.
                              (both blush) Mark opens the door. Juno stands there, looking radiantly 
               knocked-up. She holds a stack of CDs. Mark breaks into a 
               grin. Mark suddenly sees Juno for what she is -- a teenage girl.

                                     MARK
                         I'm such an idiot. I can't believe 
                         what an idiot I am. MARK
                         Nope. We're safe.

               He and Juno smile conspiratorially.

                         "Yeah, they really want you... they

               Mark and Juno lock eyes. She holds her WRIST up to Mark's twitching nostrils.

               Mark instantly smiles. MARK
                         Come on, I have something for you.

               He gestures for Juno to follow him into the house. Mark and Juno tool around on the guitars unplugged. They 
               play little riffs. He teaches her a couple chords.

               van. VANESSA
                         What are you saying?

               A long hideous beat.

                                     MARK
                         It just feels a little like bad 
                         timing. MARK
                              (passionate singing)

                              (notices Vanessa)
                         Oh, sorry honey... Juno looks totally betrayed. She doesn't respond. Vanessa 
               looks at Juno's expression and knows Mark is lying.

                                     VANESSA
                         What did you do? MARK
                         I don't know. There's just things I 
                         still want to do.

                                     VANESSA
                         Like what? Be a rock star? MARK
                         Don't mock me.

               Vanessa sighs. It's done. Mark hangs the guitars back on the wall. He and Juno exit 
               the room, chastised. Vanessa looks to Mark in question. MARK
                              (ignores the comment)
                         Ever since, it's just been like a 
                         ticking clock.

               This stops Vanessa. Juno looks offended. MARK
                         I didn't do anything... I just... 
                         I've just been thinking.

                                     VANESSA
                              (you've been thinking?)
                         What? We hear the front door closing. Vanessa and Mark look over 
               and notice that Juno has escaped the conflict.

               A door suddenly slams upstairs. Vanessa's home. MARK
                         It's just not working out, but I'm

               Vanessa takes a sip and continues to let the days events 
               sink in. After a beat, Mark comes down the stairs to join 
               her. Juno glances at Mark and again at Vanessa. Vanessa looks 
               embarrassed.

                                     MARK
                         Cold feet. MARK
                         That's not the point. We're just not 
                         in love anymore. VANESSA
                              (to her guests)
                         Will you excuse me?

                         No, it's fine. Thanks for making the 
                         call, I guess.

               Mark nods and sits down.
JUNO
                         Yeah. Um, I hooked up a whole private

                         There he was.

               Juno looks at the baby in awe, then her eyes begin to 
               flutter... and she passes out. JUNO
                         No, they're the people who are

               beautiful, but frigid. Juno rubs her arms, shivering. JUNO
                         No, I heard you. I just can't give 
                         the baby to people who describe 
                         themselves as "wholesome." I'm looking 
                         for something a little edgier. JUNO (V.O.)

                         was...

               The doctor reveals JUNO'S BABY BOY above the sheet. Paulie climbs onto the hospital bed and carefully puts his 
               arm around Juno. She leans into him, letting herself go for 
               the first time in months. JUNO (V.O.)

                         I wanted everything to be perfect. She waves and heads for the door.

                         Hey, don't forget your bag. She and Bleeker exchange glances as they play. They smile 
               ambiguously. Juno leans over and kisses Bleeker on the cheek. INT. HOSPITAL - BIRTHING SUITE - LATER

                         It really didn't hurt that bad having 
                         him. JUNO (V.O.)
                         Bleeker decided he didn't want to 
                         see the baby. Neither did I, really. 
                         He didn't feel like ours. Juno gives her the FINGER, not breaking the clinch with 
               Bleeker.

               INT. MACGUFF HOUSE - JUNO'S BEDROOM - MORNING Mark opens the door. Juno stands there, looking radiantly 
               knocked-up. She holds a stack of CDs. Mark breaks into a 
               grin. Juno runs up to her car sobbing. She struggles with the keys, 
               but finally makes it into the Previa and drives off.

He nods toward her belly.

                         Like the city in Alaska? Juno sees him and bursts into sudden, ragged sobs. Mac glances 
               at her, alarmed. Paulie moves toward the bed. Mac clears his 
               throat, gets up and leaves the room. She salutes and dashes out of the kitchen.

                         Like, what if the adoptive parents 
                         turn out to be evil molesters? She and Bleeker exchange glances as they play. They smile 
               ambiguously. Juno leans over and kisses Bleeker on the cheek. JUNO

                         what an idiot I am. It's obvious from Juno's tears and flushed face that she's 
               lying. Vanessa instantly goes pale with fear, but she tries 
               her hardest to seem serene and "together" in front of Juno. Bleeker's mom escorts Juno wordlessly up the stairs and down

                         ticking clock.

               This stops Vanessa. Juno looks offended. Juno glares at Leah.

                         No... Juno looks totally betrayed. She doesn't respond. Vanessa 
               looks at Juno's expression and knows Mark is lying.

                         What did you do? Vanessa JUMPS and makes a strangled sound.

                         Juno! God, you startled me. What are 
                         you doing here? What's wrong? BLEEKER'S MOM answers, visibly annoyed. Her eyes drift down 
               to Juno's middle. She wrestles Leah for the pretzel. Onlookers stare at them, 
               appalled, as Leah puts Juno in a half-Nelson.

               on the doormat. He squints and sees Juno pulling away in the 
               van. Juno turns to leave, then shoots one furious look back at 
               Mark. Juno looks totally betrayed. She doesn't respond. Vanessa 
               looks at Juno's expression and knows Mark is lying.

                         That's not the point. We're just not

               for a few moments, then stop moving. Mark pulls Juno as close 
               as he possibly can, given her expanding girth. Mark looks jolted, as if it's the first time he considered 
               that her baby might have a father. He stands up and holds 
               the photo up to the light critically. VANESSA
                         What are you saying?

               A long hideous beat.

                                     MARK
                         It just feels a little like bad 
                         timing. MARK
                         Hi. I'm Mark Loring. I'm the husband.

               INT. LORING HOUSE - LIVING ROOM - DAY MARK
                         You're something else.

               A door suddenly slams upstairs. Vanessa's home. MARK
                         I know you did.

               There's a LOUD KNOCK on the front door.

               Vanessa takes a sip and continues to let the days events 
               sink in. After a beat, Mark comes down the stairs to join 
               her. We hear the front door closing. Vanessa and Mark look over 
               and notice that Juno has escaped the conflict.

               EXT. LORING HOUSE - AFTERNOON MARK
                         They'd say you came a long way out 
                         here not knowing if anyone would be 
                         home.

               She holds up a manila envelope. MARK

JUNO
                         But I'm going to give it up for 
                         adoption. I already found the perfect 
                         people.

               Leah presents the Penny Saver photos of the Lornings. JUNO (V.O.)
                         I think he was always hers.

               INT. LORING HOUSE - NURSERY - DAY Juno sees him and bursts into sudden, ragged sobs. Mac glances 
               at her, alarmed. Paulie moves toward the bed. Mac clears his 
               throat, gets up and leaves the room. We hear the front door closing. Vanessa and Mark look over 
               and notice that Juno has escaped the conflict.

               EXT. LORING HOUSE - AFTERNOON JUNO
                         This is the baby. Your baby.

               Vanessa drops the shopping bags, sick with relief.

                         Oh my God... INT. LORING HOUSE - UPSTAIRS HALLWAY - DAY

               Juno opens the bathroom door and instantly BUMPS into Mark. Juno heads into the foyer and up the stairs. We see a posed 
               photo of Mark and Vanessa in the stairwell. Their house is 
               beautiful, but frigid. Juno rubs her arms, shivering. JUNO
                         No, I heard you. I just can't give 
                         the baby to people who describe 
                         themselves as "wholesome." I'm looking 
                         for something a little edgier. JUNO
                              (hushed)
                         That's her. That's Vanessa Loring.

                         Of the Penny Saver Lorings? Paulie climbs onto the hospital bed and carefully puts his 
               arm around Juno. She leans into him, letting herself go for 
               the first time in months. Juno rests her head on Mark's chest. They dance in silence 
               for a few moments, then stop moving. Mark pulls Juno as close 
               as he possibly can, given her expanding girth. JUNO (V.O.)
                         There he was.

               Juno looks at the baby in awe, then her eyes begin to 
               flutter... and she passes out. JUNO
                         Come on, you're going to want to sit 
                         down for this.

               INT. LORING HOUSE - DEN - AFTERNOON Juno ain't buying it.

                                     VANESSA
                              (to Mark)
                         Why don't we let Juno go home and we 
                         can discuss this later on, okay? JUNO
                         Well, no... I'm not going to sell 
                         the baby. I just want it to grow up Juno backs away.

                                     JUNO

                         No? Juno and Mac exit. Mark shuts the door. All is silent in the 
               foyer. Mark, Vanessa and Gerta stand motionless. Gerta pumps 
               her fist triumphantly, trying to create a mood of celebration. INT. LORING HOUSE - ENTRY WAY - DAY

               Vanessa and Mark walk Juno out. Juno peers at some shopping 
               bags from various kids stores. JUNO
                         Yeah. Um, I hooked up a whole private 
                         adoption thing. These married people 
                         in Saint Cloud are going to be the 
                         parents. The receptionist cranes her neck and sees the front door 
               drift shut. Juno's figure recedes into the distance as she 
               tears off down the street, running as fast as she can.
Paulie climbs onto the hospital bed and carefully puts his 
               arm around Juno. She leans into him, letting herself go for 
               the first time in months. Paulie is on the floor surrounded by old quizzes, studying 
               like the tortured brainiac he is. Mrs. Bleeker opens the 
               bedroom door. Juno appears. Paulie jumps, startled. Juno sees him and bursts into sudden, ragged sobs. Mac glances 
               at her, alarmed. Paulie moves toward the bed. Mac clears his 
               throat, gets up and leaves the room. Bleeker's mom escorts Juno wordlessly up the stairs and down 
               the hallway to Paulie's bedroom. Juno discreetly tries to We see Juno is in a BIRTHING SUITE at the hospital, pacing 
               impatiently, bent over in obvious discomfort. She's wearing JUNO
                         Oh. It's, well, it's Paulie Bleeker.

               Bren and Mac burst into shocked laughter. We see Juno in the process of delivery, from her POV. Leah 
               holds one of Juno's feet and Bren holds the other. JUNO (V.O.)
                         There he was.

               Juno looks at the baby in awe, then her eyes begin to

               beautiful, but frigid. Juno rubs her arms, shivering. Mac, Bren and Liberty Bell rush out of the house. They pile 
               into the Previa at breakneck speed. Juno waddles behind them, 
               protesting.

               INT. HOSPITAL - DAY Juno gives her the FINGER, not breaking the clinch with 
               Bleeker.

                         As boyfriends go, Paulie Bleeker is

                         it in him! Vanessa looks pain-stricken as Mark helps Juno with her bag.

               Juno kicks the snow off her shoes before she enters. INT. LORING HOUSE - UPSTAIRS HALLWAY - DAY

               Juno opens the bathroom door and instantly BUMPS into Mark. BLEEKER
                         Oh. That's a relief.

               Juno walks over to the bed and sits down next to Bleeker. Juno RIDES up to a garage where Bleeker is sitting, tuning 
               his guitar.

               EXT. BLEEKER HOUSE - DAY Juno trudges toward her HOUSE. The yard is a wild tangle of 
               prairie grass and wild flowers.

               INT. MACGUFF HOUSE - JUNO'S BEDROOM - NIGHT They stare at her quizzically. Bleeker spots Juno approaching 
               and jogs up to the chainlink fence.
Paulie is on the floor surrounded by old quizzes, studying

               Bren and Mac burst into shocked laughter. Bleeker's mom escorts Juno wordlessly up the stairs and down 
               the hallway to Paulie's bedroom. Juno discreetly tries to JUNO (V.O.)
                         And then, out of nowhere, there it 
                         was...

               The doctor reveals JUNO'S BABY BOY above the sheet. JUNO
                         What?

                         it in him! Mark suddenly sees Juno for what she is -- a teenage girl.

                                     MARK
                         I'm such an idiot. I can't believe 
                         what an idiot I am. Mark EXAMINES the ultrasound, baffled.

                         I think it kind of looks like my

                         Obviously.

               Juno laughs and hugs her father, planting a smooch on his 
               cheek. BLEEKER
                         It does?

               Juno presses Bleeker's hand against her belly.

               Bleeker.

               beautiful, but frigid. Juno rubs her arms, shivering. We see Juno is in a BIRTHING SUITE at the hospital, pacing

                         I'm pregnant. It's obvious from Juno's tears and flushed face that she's 
               lying. Vanessa instantly goes pale with fear, but she tries 
               her hardest to seem serene and "together" in front of Juno. INT. LORING HOUSE - UPSTAIRS HALLWAY - DAY

               Juno opens the bathroom door and instantly BUMPS into Mark.
How old is Juno? Who is it that Juno realizes she is love with? Who are Mark and Vanessa? What does Juno share in common with Mark?
