"We're leaving on this scene" doesn't make sense. Did you just mean "We're leaving this scene"? What was the actual sentence with "bail"? Was it "We're bailing on this scene"?
PonyFanWe're leaving on this scene."?

It's spoken slang, common among young people.
eg We're leaving this place.
eg We're bailing on this place.
