The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Many of the eliminations, but especially Logainne's, since she feels that, having been basically abused by her fathers, she's a loser for being eliminated.
    • Depending on the production, Logainne is also the only one whose elimination doesn't end on a pleasant note; Leaf is proud for making it to the finals, Marcy decides to stop being a perfectionist and always trying to live up to expectations, and at least Chip is last seen with one of the most comedic songs in the play. Logainne, on the other hand, is completely crushed and leaves in tears.
  • "The I Love You Song", which goes straight from a raunchy slapstick comedy to a somber, serious discussion on Olive's missing parents.
