::Gutter is in a locker room reading a GED preparation book, when Jean Carter comes in, carrying an envelope::
MJC: How's the studying going? Think you're ready for the test? You know, they say it helps if you picture the examiner in his underwear, but when I did that they said I fainted from blushing too much...
Gutter: ...I don't think 'm gonna pass this one either.
MJC: Now what kind of attitude is that! I know you're struggling but you can do it if you try hard enough! Now what was I coming here for... OH! You got a letter!
Gutter: ...What? From who?
MJC: Uh... ::Looks at the envelope in her hands:: ...I dunno. It just says "Gutter, Peter Venkman Memorial Arena, New York City, New York..."
Gutter: Whatever, I don't care...
MJC: Hold on now! This might be important!
::Jean opens up the letter and looks it over::
MJC: I'm out.
Gutter: Huh?
MJC: That's what it says. "I'm out". Doesn't say anything else...
::Gutter snatches the letter and looks at it... and all the color drains from her face.::
Gutter: ...No...No. [Rhymes with "TRUCK!"].
MJC: What's wrong? Who's out?
Gutter: ...Nobody. This... this just someone tryin' ta mess wit me. That's all.
MJC: Well I thi-
Gutter: That's all, Carter. Just some stupid joke.
MJC: Okay, if you say so. I better go, we'll get some food later, k?
::Gutter nods as Jean waves goodby and leaves. After she leaves, Gutter goes into a fetal position.::
