In Dirt Off Your Shoulder (2), Eli reveals the plot, "A tale of a high school romance gone wrong. The hero's, {Ari/Eli Goldsworthy} betrayed at the school dance {Vegas Night} by a manipulative lover {Clara/Clare Edwards} whose become obsessed with a religious psycho {Fritz/Fitz}."

In Lose Yourself (1), Fiona and Eli talk about how they want the audience to know that Clara {Clare} likes Ari {Eli}. Fiona notices Clare watches Eli "Maybe she stands in a doorway watching him work." Eli doesn't know that Clare's watching him. Jenna and Sav co-write and Sav and Mo co-compose the theme song that takes place during Vegas Night.

In Lose Yourself (2), Eli makes some changes to the plot that makes Clara {Clare} the hero in hopes to get Clare back.

In Extraordinary Machine (1), Eli changes the play completely so that Ari and Clara {Clare} end up together. Eli also changes the play so that Fritz {Fitz} is no longer the villain and Jack {Jake} is the villain.

In Extraordinary Machine (2), Just as the play is about to start, Fiona decides to fill in for Imogen, since she's 10 minutes late. Eli improvises the end of the play, which is where he tells the truth about hurting Clare and his mistakes with Clare. He decides to burn the script because he realizes that 'You can't write your life.' and everytime something would change with Clare, he'd change the play. He and Clare both end up in tears after Eli finishes his speech.

QuotesEdit

Clara: "We can’t be together. Because all we would do is spiral into another epic vortex that ends with you crashing a hearse into a wall. We’re all a lost generation."

Clara: "It’s Vegas Night. A night when dreams come true. But is this a dream, Ari? Or a nightmare?" Ari: "You’re tearing me apart, Clara. Just tell me what you want." Clara: "Oh, I’ll tell you, but not with words." (Clara and Ari Kiss)

Clara: "Ari, you can't fight Jack." Ari: "He dragged you into this godforsaken casino. He started it." Clara: But I won't be able to live with myself if he finishes it. Please. [Clara caresses Ari's cheek] [Ari kisses Clara and as he turns away Jack appears with a knife] Jack: "Never turn your back on the blade." Ari: (Turns to Clara): "Traitor!"

Clara: "Wait! Switch drinks." Ari: "Fine by me." Jack: "Fine by me as well."

Clara: "Ari, there's enough room for you and Jack in the world." Ari: "But, not in your heart, Clara. Not in your heart."

Ari: "Thanks for coming. I just hated the way we left things. The truth is, you should be with me, not him. We'll run away. Where no one could ever come between us again. Just you and me against the world." [Clara put her hands in Ari's] Clara: Just you and me against the world." [Clara kisses Ari]
Eli: No matter how much all of you want a happy ending, YOU CAN'T HAVE IT!!! I tried to write one, but it's impossible. I re-wrote and re-worte but things kept changing. And I hurt people and I... and I knew they were hurting. (Half-Laughs): But I didn't stop. Because your mind tricks you. It tricks you into thinking that things are fine. They're not fine. Nothing's fine! IT'S ALL WRONG!!! [Looks at Clare]: I'm all wrong. That's it. There's no happy ending. [Sighs; Burns 'Love Roulette' Script] Eli and Clare: (Crying)
