Dominique Timeline and Summary

  • Dominique gets to school in the morning to try to get her minutes back on the court. First she tries to corner her teacher in the parking lot and get him to raise her grade, and then she tries to get Coach to change the rule.
  • Shut down on all fronts, Dominique is in a foul mood when Trina gets a little too close in the hallway. Mad beyond belief, Dominique decides to jump Trina after school.
  • In Social Interaction, Dominique thinks about how she doesn't have a temper, and she learns how to prioritize.
  • In history class, Dominique feels badly for the teacher who is trying to talk about the Cold War, so she helps him start a discussion. She also compares herself to a much more feminine girl and decides that she's not like that at all.
  • Two senior girls talk with Dominique, and once they find out she's benched, they tell her to fix it. So Dominique goes to Hershheiser's classroom to see if he'll talk, but he refuses to let her in.
  • In gym class, Dominique thinks about how ball sports are her favorite, and she likes the pain from spiking the volleyball.
  • During lunch, Dominique fends off Scotty, who's all into her because they had sex once, and repeats her threat to jump Trina when she sees Trina stomping with the Boosters.
  • In English class, Dominique writes an essay about Lennie from Of Mice and Men.
  • She goes to see Coach one last time, and even though she asks for the rules to be changed or just bent, Coach tells her to leave and go to class.
  • So, after school, Dominique attacks Trina. It is brutal and violent and as she does it, she yells, "You see me" repeatedly.
  • The female cop pulls Dominique off Trina, and Dominique is taken away in handcuffs.
  • A few months later, Dominique appears on a television special about girl-on-girl violence. She's either in juvenile hall or prison, and she says that she didn't learn anything and that she's not sorry for what she did. Sad face.
