Cut to outside Hill Valley High School. JENNIFER is waiting at the door.

Marty: Hello, Jennifer.

Jennifer: Marty, don't go this way. Strickland's looking for you. If you're caught it'll be 4 tardies in a row.

Cut to the corridor. Jennifer peaks her head round.

Jennifer: All right, c'mon, I think we're safe.

Marty: Y'know this time it wasn't my fault. The Doc set all of his clocks 25 minutes slow.

Mr STRICKLAND appears out of nowhere.

Strickland: Doc? Am I to understand you're still hanging around with Dr Emmett Brown, McFly? Tardy slip for you, Miss Parker. And one for you McFly, I believe that makes 4 in a row. Now let me give you a nickel's worth of advice, young man. This so called Dr Brown is dangerous, he's a real nutcase. You hang around with him you're gonna end up in big trouble.

Marty: Oh yes sir.

Strickland pushes Marty a bit.

Strickland: You got a real attitude problem, McFly. You're a slacker. You remind me of your father when he went here, he was a slacker too.

Marty: Can I go now, Mr Strickland?

Strickland: I noticed you band is on the roster for dance auditions after school today. Why even bother McFly, you haven't got a chance, you're too much like your old man. No McFly ever amounted to anything in the history of Hill Valley.

Marty: Yeah, well history is gonna change.

The school auditorium. A band has just finished and Marty's group are waiting to go on. Jennifer is nearby watching. There are 4 judges, the second one wears glasses and is the one who speaks below.

Audition Judge: Next, please.

Marty and his group get onto the stage.

Marty: All right, we're the Pinheads.

They begin to play the first bit of The Power Of Love. The judges look at each other and then the guy with glasses picks up his loudspeaker.
