Cameron and Michael spread rumors around school that Bogie's party will have free beer and dancing, although it is actually a small private gathering. Cameron and Michael finally explain their situation to Patrick and inform him that Bogie Lowenstein (Kyle Cease) is throwing a party (this is actually a plot by Michael to get revenge, as a rumor from Bogie had got him kicked out of their clique). Patrick agrees, but Kat, however, wants nothing to do with Patrick. Michael then poses the idea to Joey, also attempting to date Bianca, to pay Patrick to take Kat out. Cameron tries asking Patrick for his assistance, but Patrick scares him off. Cameron suggests Patrick Verona (Heath Ledger), an outcast who is just as ill-tempered as Kat. This news motivates Cameron and Michael to set out to find a boy who is willing to date Kat. Cameron starts tutoring Bianca, and she informs him of her fathers rule after Cameron makes many failed attempts to ask her out.

At the Stratford residence, Biancas outcast older sister Kat (Julia Stiles) receives a letter of acceptance to Sarah Lawrence College. Michael does, however, inform Cameron that Bianca is looking for a French tutor. Michael warns that Bianca is shallow, conceited, and worst of all, not allowed to date.

His choice: Patrick Verona, a bad-boy with a mysterious reputation-some say he ate a live duck once, others that he lit a state trooper on fire, and even more claim that he had a brief porn career. So Michael helps him enlist the help of pretty-boy/jerk/model Joey Donner, tricking him into thinking that *he* will get to take Bianca out if he pays someone to take out Kat. Now, in order for Cameron to date Bianca, he has to find someone to date Kat. But Kat and Bianca's father alters his house rule: now, Bianca can date. And neither is her "shrew" sister, Katarina, a senior who loves indie rock and feminist prose and hates conformity. During his tour is when Cameron first sees Bianca Stratford, a beautiful sophomore with one problem: she isn't allowed to date. He is then shown around the school by Michael, who will become his best friend. Adapted from William Shakespeare's play "The Taming of the Shrew," 10 Things I Hate About You starts off with Cameron, new student at Padua High, sitting in the office of the quirky guidance counselor Ms.
