She’s got an unrequited crush on Paul (Mitchell Slaggart), who just happens to be going out with Clare’s biggest tormentor, Darcie (Josephine Langford).

In addition to having to live with that memory, Clare also has to deal with the basic every day life of a high school student. Years later, she’s still tortured by the sight of it as a high school student.
