Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County

Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County (2004–2006), often referred to only as Laguna Beach, is a dramatic soap opera on MTV. In its first season (2004), it was a reality television series featuring affluent teenagers living in Laguna Beach, California, about 40 miles south of Los Angeles. In its second season, it retained its well-groomed, relatively untrained cast and documentary-like cinematic style, but became almost fully scripted. The locations, the people, and the drama are real.

A Black & White Affair... [1.1]

 * LC: This is where it all happened. Laguna Beach, California. A small town in the OC where I grew up. I just finished my senior year of high school, a year I’ll never forget. I’m really gonna miss my friends. Especially my best friend, Lo. No matter how crazy it got this year, I could always count on Lo. That’s Christina. She’s the reverend’s daughter. No, really, she is. There’s Morgan. Her goal is to save herself for the right guy. That’s Trey. I guess you could say he was the serious one. But he also had the best party house in Laguna. The guy on the surfboard, that’s Talan. He’s a junior and he’s hooked up with most of the girls at our school, twice. That, that would be Kristin, another junior. Wherever Kristin went drama followed. She thinks she’s hot. Okay, I guess she is, but she can’t stand me. Here’s the reason why. Stephen. I guess he’s kind of her boyfriend. But Stephen and I have been really close forever. We’re even going to college together in San Francisco. Kristin’s the wrong girl for him. I’m just waiting for him to figure it out. Oh, and me? I’m Lauren, but my friends call me LC. I’ve always been the nice girl. But this year, I realized sometimes you just have to go after what you want. And all this drama started with the black and white party.


 * Dieter: We’re going bubble bathing tonight. You wanna come?
 * LC: Bubble bathing?
 * Polster: We’re going to be putting bubble bath in Jacuzzi’s so it creates a massive amount of bubbles.
 * LC: Why would you do that?
 * Polster: Why wouldn’t you do that?
 * LC: Don’t you have to empty the Jacuzzi?
 * Polster: We’re not going to do it in my Jacuzzi.
 * Dieter: We’re going to like a hotel.
 * LC: That’s mean.
 * Dieter: That’s mean?
 * LC: Yeah.
 * Dieter: Well I’ll write them an "I’m sorry letter".
 * Polster: How considerate is that? She’s like thinking about the hotel.
 * Dieter: LC always thinks about the smart shit.
 * Polster: Remember when I used to be the smart one?
 * Dieter: No.
 * LC: [Laughs] Yeah, I don’t remember that either.
 * Dieter: That never happened.


 * Alex H: Do you know if Stephen has talked to Lauren like recently at all?
 * Kristin: Uh, they’re friends, but she’s a stuck up little brat.
 * Alex H: Oh, I know!
 * Kristin: But he’s mine. [they laugh]
 * Alex H: If you and Stephen had babies, they’d be so good looking. [Kristin laughs] They would.
 * Kristin: ‘Cause Stephen’s all tan.
 * Alex H: Stephen’s hot.
 * Kristin: Stephen’s really hot.


 * LC: I have two closets.
 * Stephen: Shut up.
 * LC: This is my clothes closet and that one's my shoes and purse closet.


 * Stephen: [to LC] Dude, this is so gnarly. It reminds me of the houses on The OC. Oh God.


 * Kristin: Yeah, I don’t know. I’m really stressed out on Stephen and Lauren because last night, he told me he was going to bed early, and today I found out he was at her house.
 * Talan: Do you know if they hooked up?
 * Kristin: He says that they didn’t.
 * Talan: Does that bum you? I mean, it’s kinda funny, you guys like have a relationship that’s like on and off. ‘Cause you hook up with him, he hooks up with Lauren, you hook up with him, he hooks up with Lauren, I kind of come in on the side and like grab one of you every once in a while.
 * Kristin: Yeah.
 * Talan: Gosh, our town is so small. We need another girl.
 * Kristin: What is that supposed to mean?
 * Talan: I don’t know, I’m kind of sick of hooking up with the same girl.
 * Kristin: You’re sick of hooking up with the same girl? Who?
 * Talan: You know it’s you. It’s seems like whenever I call you, you’re with Stephen, and whenever I call Lauren...
 * Kristin: She’s with Stephen. Either wants to go back out or stop whatever we’re doing.
 * Talan: So you think it’s Lauren’s fault they’re hanging out all the time?
 * Kristin: I think it’s both their faults. I just hate Lauren. She needs to go out of my life.
 * Talan: That’s a little harsh.


 * Polster: Wait, are you going with LC or are you going with Kristin?
 * Stephen: I don’t know. There’s like mad tension there, so I don’t know.
 * Polster: Can you imagine like LC and Kristin fighting over you?
 * Stephen: Having Lauren and Kristin fighting over you?
 * Polster: Yeah.
 * Stephen: Kristin’s like a really good girl to hook up with and have fun with. We can have like so much fun. But, coming down to the boyfriend and girlfriend stuff, Lauren would like a better girl.
 * Polster: Such drama.
 * Stephen: It is.
 * Trey: Could have seen you though dude.
 * Stephen: I know. It sucks for me because I don’t know what to do because either way I’ll be like hurting one.
 * Polster: It’s a tough choice man. But it’s a predicament…it’s just the way it goes.
 * Stephen: Exactly.


 * LC: I like getting ready. Even if you don’t really do anything.


 * Lo: I wish I had a white dress.
 * Morgan: I know, that’s what I wanted to wear.
 * Lo: I know. I have never found a cute white dress like ever. They’re all trashy.


 * [after Stephen ran over Dieter's bottle of cologne]
 * Dieter: If I put a baby next to your car are you going to run over it?
 * Stephen: Why would you put a baby next to my car?
 * Dieter: Why would I put cologne next to your car, dude?


 * LC: At 2:00, we’re all running down there and jumping in the water.
 * Stephen: Naked!?
 * LC: No... I'm wearing a bathing suit... YOU can go naked!


 * LC: I like how we’re all wearing black and Kristin’s wearing white. How ironic.


 * Kristin: I’m the only one that wore white. I’m different.


 * Kristin: I want to get out of here, I'm leaving!
 * LC: I swear if Kristin says one more time she wants to leave I'm gonna pick her up and physically remove her from the hotel!

The Bonfire [1.2]

 * LC: The Black and White party was supposed to be the best party of our senior year...But Kristin made sure that didn’t happen...I guess she was mad when she found out Stephen and I left Trey’s barbecue together...I’d never steal a guy away from another girl, but with those two, you never know if they’re on or not...Especially with all the guys Kristin has on the side...So for now, I’m hanging out with my best friend Lo. And doing what girls do when things aren’t going their way, shop.


 * Saleslady: So are you going out solo tonight or do you have dates?
 * LC: We’re always solo.
 * Saleslady: No ball and chain?
 * Lo: No. No ball and chain whatsoever.


 * Stephen: So what did you think?
 * Kristin: Well I mean I didn’t really do much.
 * Stephen: If you do again you have to promise me that you’ll actually like wanna do it. So we don’t like waste our time.
 * Kristin: Sorry for wasting your time Stephen.
 * Stephen: You didn’t waste my time, it just seemed like you were wasting your time.
 * Kristin: Okay, whatever. Then I don’t like it.
 * Stephen: You wanna go? [She nods] All right, let’s go.
 * Kristin: Thanks for taking me surfing.


 * Christina: I don’t know. I mean, senior year’s been so fun.
 * Morgan: It’s like, I’m so nervous, because like if I don’t get in, I’ve worked for this my whole entire high school.
 * Christina: Aren’t you so excited to open it?
 * Morgan: I’m so nervous Christina, you know?
 * Christina: Yeah.
 * Morgan: This is my only choice school. It’s the only school I applied to. Like if I don’t get in, then I’m still gonna go up there. I’m still gonna be a part of the scene because I’m not staying here. That’s for sure.
 * Christina: Yeah.
 * Morgan: I’m getting out of the bubble. Like I wanna be around those people, I wanna be around people with the same standards and I wanna get out of this party scene and stupid kids screwing up on their parent’s money.
 * Christina: Okay, open it.
 * Morgan: Okay, ready?
 * Christina: Just do it.
 * Morgan: “Dear Morgan, thank you for selecting Brigham Young University for your undergraduate education. Your application has been carefully + thoughtfully reviewed. Because of the high number of competitive students applying to BYU, we regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you admissions”.
 * Christina: Oh no.
 * Morgan: What am I supposed to do now?
 * Christina: It’s okay. Give me a hug. Come here. It’s okay.
 * Morgan: I’m not staying here. I’m not gonna stay in Laguna Beach, you know?
 * Christina: I know exactly how you feel.

 * LC: Like what?
 * Stephen: Like I don’t regret that we ever hooked up or anything like that, we became better friends from that, but like I regret the situation I got put into.
 * LC: For a really long time, I did regret everything. I mean, it was like fun while it lasted. But it just almost wasn’t worth it because of all the shit we went through.
 * Stephen: It’s so standard. I learned a lot though. Like I’m glad I went through it, like the one time.
