LEGALLY BLONDE – The Musical WARNER SIDES SIDE 1 of 2
ACT ONE, SCENE TWO
Romantic, slow jam plays as we meet WARNER HUNTINGTON THE THIRD.
WARNER and ELLE are in an outdoor courtyard restaurant.
ELLE
Oh, Warner. Tonight's just perfect.
WARNER No, you're perfect.
ELLE No, you are.
WARNER No, YOU are.
ELLE No, you.
WARNER No, you.
ELLE You.
WARNER You.
ELLE You. Okay, I'm even irritating myself.
WARNER Elle, I want you to know how happy you’ve made me. Every guy dreams about finding a girl who looks like you.
(ELLE beams.)
START
LEGALLY BLONDE – The Musical WARNER SIDES SIDE 1 of 2
SONG: SERIOUS
WARNER
WE BOTH KNOW WHY WE’RE HERE; I SEE IT IN YOUR EYES. I GUESS IT CALMS MY FEAR TO KNOW IT’S NOT A SURPRISE. I THOUGHT ONE LOOK AT YOU, LOOKING LIKE A DREAM COME TRUE, WOULD LEAVE ME SPEECHLESS LIKE YOU ALWAYS DO. BUT NOW WE’RE WIDE AWAKE, AND WE’VE GOT SOME PLANS TO MAKE; LET’S TAKE SOME ACTION, BABY! SO BABY GIVE ME YOUR HAND. I’VE GOT SOME DREAMS TO MAKE TRUE. I’VE GOT THE FUTURE ALL PLANNED. IT’S TIME TO GET SERIOUS, TIME TO GET SERIOUS WITH YOU.
ELLE
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I---
WARNER (spoken, apologetically)
Uh, honey, I’m not finished?
ELLE (spoken, apologetically)
Oh, sorry!
WARNER ELLE SINCE I WAS TWO OR THREE, MM HM… MY LIFE WAS PLANNED OUT NEAT. MM HM… I’D GET MY LAW DEGREE, YEAH! AND THEN WIN MY SENATE SEAT. MMMM… A BIG WHITE HOUSE BACK EAST, UH HUH… ALL OF THE AMENITIES. YEAH! THREE KIDS AT LEAST, …AT LEAST! JUST LIKE THE KENNEDYS! JUST LIKE THE KENNEDYS!
WARNER (CONT.) ELLE
(CONT.) HERE’S WHERE OUR LIVES BEGIN. OUR LIVES BEGIN…
LEGALLY BLONDE – The Musical WARNER SIDES SIDE 1 of 2
BUT JUST WHERE DO YOU FIT IN?
FIT ME IN! I’LL BREAK IT DOWN NOW, BABY! OH BABY GIVE ME YOUR HAND! AH AH AH AH AH…
HERE’S MY HAND!
HERE’S MY HAND!
I’VE GOT SOME DREAMS TO MAKE TRUE! WE BOTH HAVE DREAMS TO MAKE TRUE! I KNOW THAT YOU’LL UNDERSTAND, OH YES I UNDERSTAND! IT’S TIME TO GET SERIOUS, TIME TO GET SERIOUS, TIME TO GET SERIOUS, TIME TO GET SERIOUS, WITH-- SERIOUS! SERIOUS! GOTTA WAKE UP AND TAKE OUR JOURNEY SERIOUS. SERIOUS! I’M TELLIN’ YOU AS A FUTURE ATTORNEY!
WARNER ELLE
YOU WANT THE MOON AND SKY? AH AH! THEN TAKE IT, DON’T BE SHY. OKAY! BABY THAT’S WHY YOU AND I... AH… YOU AND I... SHOULD BREAK UP!
YES, BABY, I’LL GIVE YOU MY HAND;
WE -- WHAT??!
ELLE You’re breaking up with me? I thought you were proposing.
WARNER I did talk to my parents about it Pooh-Bear, but… they expect a lot from me. I’m going to Harvard Law School and my brother’s at Yale Law-- so’s his new wife, and she’s a Vanderbilt for Chrissake.
LEGALLY BLONDE – The Musical WARNER SIDES SIDE 1 of 2
ELLE
Oh, so I’m not good enough for you? Warner, I’m from Malibu! I’m not exactly trailer-trash here! Richard Simmons is our neighbor!
ELLE begins to cry...little puppy-like sniffs.
WARNER Elle, if I’m gonna be a senator when I’m thirty...
I’M GONNA NEED SOMEBODY
ELLE SERIOUS! (sniff) LESS OF A MARILYN MORE A JACKIE… SERIOUS! (sniff) SOMEBODY CLASSY AND NOT TOO TACKY... WHAT?!! OKAY, THAT CAME OUT WRONG... (sob) BABY, LET’S BOTH BE STRONG (GASP sob) I MEAN WE KNEW ALL ALONG--- (shaking wail) A-A-A-AGH…
JUST SHUT UP!
elle (CONT.) (spoken)
What does that mean, I’m not a Jackie...? I’m not serious--? But I’m seriously in love with you.
The strolling VIOLINIST approaches the table, but seeing ELLE’s mascara-stained face, he retreats. ELLE leaves.
WARNER
BABY, MY FUTURE’S ALL PLANNED. I’VE GOT SOME DREAMS TO MAKE TRUE. I THOUGHT THAT YOU’D UNDERSTAND: IT’S TIME TO GET SERIOUS... TIME TO GET SERIOUS…
As the VIOLINIST completes a sorrowful flourish.
WARNER (CONT.)
(spoken) Check, please.

WARNER SIDES SIDE 2 of 2
ELLE holds her head high, searches for
WARNER. She spots him near the bar. His
eyes just about pop out of his head when he
sees her in costume.
ELLE
Hi, stranger.
WARNER
(Appreciatively)
Elle! Man!...What’s with the costume? ELLE Can’t a girl shake things up? WARNER Yeah, but why couldn’t you have worn this when we were going out?
ELLE
Because I guess you never asked.
WARNER
Which will now rank as the greatest regret of my entire life.
(smiles)
I still can’t get over the fact you’re here at Harvard... Back at U.C.L.A. I never would’ve guessed it. Sometimes I miss the old days…
SONG: SERIOUS (REPRISE)
WARNER
THOSE PARTIES SENIOR YEAR...
I THOUGHT WE RULED THE WORLD.
ELLE
YOU FUNNELED ALL THAT BEER:
I HELD YOUR HEAD WHEN YOU HURLED.
WARNER
WE WERE LIKE GODS BACK THEN!
WALKING AMONG COMMON MEN.
TELL ME WHY CAN’T IT BE THAT WAY AGAIN?
ELLE
DREAMS DON’T JUST DISAPPEAR:
WE COULD KEEP ON DREAMING THEM HERE!
WARNER
…What?
CUT TO:

LEGALLY BLONDE – The Musical
WARNER SIDES SIDE 2 of 2
ELLE
LIKE SENIOR YEAR… BUT FUNNER!
YOU’VE GOT YOUR FUTURE ALL PLANNED.
WARNER
YES I DO, GUESS I DO…
ELLE
WHAT IF I’M STANDING THERE TOO?
WARNER
WAIT, I’M NOT FOLLOWING YOU…
ELLE
I’M HERE ‘CAUSE I UNDERSTAND…
WARNER
NOT SURE I UNDERSTAND…
ELLE
I’M HERE ‘CAUSE I’M SERIOUS!
WARNER
(snorts)
YEAH, RIGHT, YOU LOOK REAL SERIOUS.
ELLE
(wounded)
Warner, don’t forget I got into this school, too. And now we’re here together,
studying law. Maybe we’ll both get Callahan’s internship and work together...
WARNER
Whoa. Wait a second. Elle. You get kicked out of class, like, every day. You don’t ACTUALLY believe you have a chance of getting the internship?
ELLE
(wounded)
Of course?
WARNER
Everyone in the class wants it; nobody more than me. It’s a guaranteed career. You’re practically partner before you have a job offer.
VIVIENNE appears.
VIVIENNE
Elle. You’re looking...fluffy. As usual.
CONTINUE:
LEGALLY BLONDE – The Musical
WARNER SIDES SIDE 2 of 2
ELLE Hello, Vivienne. Thanks for your great tip on the “costume party.” I see you came as Last Year’s Sample Sale.
WARNER
Pooh B- Elle... You have to ace his course to get that internship and he’s not called “C-Minus Callahan” for nothing.

ELLE SIDES SIDE 1 of 4
ELLE
I love your top! It’s so fatigue chic. So how psyched are you guys? Snaps, our first day at Harvard Law.
Silence. Hi. I’m Elle Woods. And this is Bruiser Woods.
ENID (grudgingly)
Enid.
ELLE Oh my god, we both have names that start with an E!
ENID (sarcastic)
Oh my god, we're, like, practically twins!
Other STUDENTS snicker.
EMMETT (coming to rescue)
We’re just going around the circle…tell us something about yourself.
ELLE Me? Okay. So I’m a Gemini with a double Capricorn moon and I have a Bachelors degree from UCLA where I was Sig Ep Sweetheart, president of Delta Nu Sorority and founded the charity Shop for a Cause.
EMMETT (encouragingly, a good section leader)
Huh.
ELLE Oh! And just last week at Fred Segal, I talked Beyonce out of buying a truly heinous cable-knit tube top. Whoever said tangerine is the new pink is seriously disturbed.
EMMETT I did not know that.
Stunned, awkward silence.
ELLE Anyone know where I can find Criminal Law 101 with Professor Callahan? And Warner Huntington III?
START

ELLE SIDES SIDE 1 of 4
EMMETT
Well, we’re all heading there, so I’m sure someone would be happy to—
But the STUDENTS have gotten up quickly and left.
EMMETT
…show you? (he sighs and points the way)
It’s in Hauser. Over there, second building on the left.
ELLE Thanks.
EMMETT watches as ELLE slings BRUISER back over her shoulder.
EMMETT But I don’t think dogs are exactly allowed in class.
ELLE (smiles a bit)
Oh, Bruiser’s not a dog. Bruiser’s family. I’ll just drop him off at my room.
He’d be happier there anyway: Bruiser loves Days of Our Lives. I’ll see you later
then.
STOP
LEGALLY BLONDE – The Musical ELLE SIDES SIDE 3 of 4
ELLE
Emmett, I’m sorry –
EMMETT -- I don’t need you to be sorry. I need you to tell me the alibi.
ELLE
I can’t because I gave Brooke my word. Having an alibi isn’t the only way to win this case.
EMMETT
No, but it sure would help.
ELLE Work with me. We’ll free Brooke the right way. The noble way.
EMMETT This isn’t a Lifetime Original Movie, Elle. I’m not interested in nobility right now, I’m more interested in saving Brooke’s life.
ELLE No you’re not. You’re more interested in impressing Callahan.
EMMETT Well, he IS my boss. And if I impress him he’ll make me associate.
ELLE And jeopardize your client’s trust and our integrity?
EMMETT Well, when you put it that way.
ELLE Exactly, you butthead. My word means something, I know yours does too.
EMMETT No one’s called me a butthead since third grade.
ELLE Maybe not to your face. C’mon, let’s get out of here.
EMMETT Why do you always have to be right?
(ELLE takes EMMETT and leads him by the hand.)
START
LEGALLY BLONDE – The Musical ELLE SIDES SIDE 3 of 4
ELLE I don’t have to be… when I’m with you, I just am. Hey, if you want to impress Callahan, I can help.
EMMETT Okay. How?
ELLE Listen, I love your scruffy vibe, but “Casual Friday” is so not in Callahan’s vocabulary, and you have to dress the part if you want to get ahead.
EMMETT Elle, didn’t your mother ever teach you about not judging a book by its cover?
ELLE She did. And books with tattered covers stay on the shelf.
EMMETT Thanks a lot.
ELLE Emmett, this isn’t a perfect world. Think people haven’t judged me my whole life? Think it wasn’t a good idea to make navy my new pink?
EMMETT No, that was a good idea.
ELLE I know.
EMMETT Where are we going exactly?
ELLE You trust me, don’t you?
EMMETT Of course.
ELLE Then don’t stop now.
