Misfit: The Series (2021) s01e03 Episode Script

Schaduwspel

1
I'm going to crack.
Joris Schikhof?
She'll ask, "How are you, Sterre?"
And I'll say, "Musical."
Don't worry.
Agnes thinks we're getting tutoring.
Why does she want to speak to us?
Just stay cool.
She'll go for the weakest link first.
-Sterre Hagendoorn.
-Musical.
See?
You can do it, Sterre. Close your eyes,
think of a tropical island.
You are a rock, at one with nature.
I am a rock. I am at one with nature.
Okay.
We are so busted.
-Sterre, come and sit down.
-Yes.
So, let me start off
with the most important question.
-Chamomile or ginger tea?
-I am a rock.
-A rock?
-I mean, m
-M?
-M
int.
Mint. Is there mint tea?
Of course. It's also my personal favorite.
How's the tutoring going?
The tutoring.
-Sterre is probably revealing it all.
-I trust her.
And which subject
do you struggle with the most?
-At one with nature.
-Nature?
-Science.
-Natural science?
Yes, exactly.
But luckily we're getting tutored by
Magenta. Thank you for tutoring.
Of course. I enjoy it.
Lacisum. It's not in my dictionary.
Julia Martens, why are you at tutoring?
Well, all my friends are.
Do you know what this means?
GRADE LIS
That someone has high grades?
Those are your test grades.
You were the best.
But imagine. A creative talent like you
at a great theater school.
A place like Music Academy New York.
Yes, you'd fit in perfectly there.
That is something really special.
Do you understand?
I think so.
No, Magenta. This is
far too valuable to take for granted.
I'm here for you.
To help you achieve the best you can.
Thank you for your time.
By the way,
do you know what lacisum stands for?
Isn't that Latin for peanut butter?
-Did you really say that?
-Yes. It just popped out.
-What did she say?
-Have a good day, Julia.
But with a tone.
-What kind of tone?
-An ominous one.
-As if she knew something.
-Lisa Labeij?
Good luck.
Don't worry.
-That was so intense.
-We've all just been drilled by Agnes.
"What do you know? Where were you?"
Luckily nobody lied.
-We're all
-studying hard.
-In order to
-pass the test.
Go, 3,000 points.
Nobody broke, nobody cracked.
Hashtag what big secret project?
And if you know about it,
hashtag shut your mouth.
-That was intense.
-What did she ask you?
She talked about my high grades
and said, "Don't waste your talent."
-She said that to me too.
-And me.
-What do we do now?
-Agnes wants to rattle us.
She wants to tear us apart.
So let's work harder than ever
on the musical.
-For sure.
-But even more carefully.
And even more together.
Lacisum.
-Lacisum.
-And don't forget the gnirotut.
-Huh?
-What?
That's tutoring backwards.
-We also have to pass the next test.
-Yes.
Lacisum.
Welcome to the very first rehearsal.
Okay, guys. I am proud
to present Highland Squadland,
the meeting place of Nick and Julia.
-Wow.
-Awesome.
Amazing, Morris.
Thanks.
It's not quite finished yet, but almost.
-Proud of you, Snorris.
-Thanks.
Okay. We'll rehearse the first scene.
The meeting of Nick and Julia.
Nick is ready to meet Julia.
Perfect.
Where's Sterre?
Tara to Bibi-Anne. Where's Sterre?
Sterre is mentally preparing for her role.
She's trying to bring out her inner Julia.
Okay. We're waiting for her.
Ster, they're waiting.
Unhappy appearance
-Ster.
-Yes.
-Yes, got it.
-A great misfit.
It's the hardest role I'll ever play.
That's what makes it
the role of your life.
I am a loser, a misfit. I have nobody.
-Yes.
-Yes? Okay, come on.
Go.
I am a loser, a misfit. I have nobody.
-That's not very nice.
-What? No, not Julia now. Julia then.
It's called method acting.
This is the scene where Nick
and Julia meet for the first time.
-Julia.
-Nick.
Nick, we need
a super romantic song for this scene.
I'll get inspired.
Yes. Everyone get ready for rehearsal.
I am a loser, a misfit. I have nobody.
And
Do you know where biology is?
-Nice and relaxed.
-It's best to start the
Is it, "nice and relaxed"?
Am I asking if he's nice and relaxed?
It's a joke about his music
because hard rock doesn't sound relaxing.
Yes.
Nice and relaxed.
It's best to start the day calmly, right?
Julia.
Nick.
-Sterre?
-What?
Make it a bit more subtle.
A bit louder.
A bit sweeter?
Less emotion?
Okay, stop the rehearsal.
-Sterre is performing
-What?
really well. Fully committed.
Thank you.
-But
-Yes, I need to become more you.
Shoulders down.
But it'll be okay. For sure.
I think a different role
might be better for you.
A different role?
Yes. One where you can
really grow and bloom.
Where you really stand out.
Hey. Cacti are super important
for our ecosystem.
It really is a step up.
-This is not okay, Martens.
-Sterre
I got this. Ster.
Juul, what now? Will you play yourself?
We need to find a new lead.
Tara.
Me?
I don't know.
-Well
-I can do it.
Are you sure?
Yes, please.
Okay. Well, I'm glad you want to try it.
Tara, can you print
another script for Lisa?
Yes, sure.
Is something wrong?
No.
Nothing.
Welcome to this Monday afternoon mixdown.
The only mixdown in the world
where flavors are made.
And broken down.
Ready?
Three, two, one.
-Strawberries.
-Mint.
-Coconut.
-Mango.
-And now the moment of truth.
-The scores are coming in.
An 8.5.
Guys, we have a new smoothie.
-The
-Lazy Monday Tutti-frutti.
-Hey.
-How about a super healthy power smoothie?
-Nice, thanks.
-I'll make you one.
Were you able to do the things?
You said you had to go
because you had things to do.
Yes, I did them.
-Great.
-Yes.
Thanks.
Sorry.
We show who we are, Highland High forever
You're more than a nerd or
Sorry.
Is everything okay?
Yes. Great.
Hey, Taar.
Jason is doing homework in his room.
And he's super focused
so he won't come in.
You know,
in my daydreams, I could talk his ear off.
I am confident, exciting, and funny.
I saw the most beautiful sunset
over the jungle in South America.
After a perilous climb,
I reached the top of a cliff
and I was safe from a pack of lions.
But the view was breathtaking.
But in reality
-You're scared to speak?
-I shut down completely.
-I can hear you.
-Really?
Just kidding.
But I thought you could do with a break.
So who fancies some cookies?
Yummy. Croopies.
I mean cookies.
Cookies.
-Enjoy.
-Thank you.
See? How will I ever talk to him
without getting nervous?
The first time I met Nick
wasn't smooth either.
But the more you speak to each other,
the better it gets.
And the nerves?
They'll go away.
Do you still get nervous?
No, not really.
Now it feels comfortable.
I get nervous just thinking about Jason.
Welcome to Highland High, enjoy our show
My raps are dope, I get ten for the flow
I'm not in the lesson, but I have class
Life's a lottery you don't have to scratch
Do you break dance or have jazz hands?
Rivals become best friends
I didn't know you could rap.
I can't.
It's really good.
-Thank you.
-Why don't you join the musical?
Allergic to spotlights?
Yes, I get that.
What game is that?
It's a new game I'm designing.
Horror High School.
You design games?
Cool and techy.
It's about a high school
where the teachers turn into monsters.
So you design games, mix smoothies,
and you're an incredible rapper.
Is there anything you can't do?
What?
Okay. If you like someone,
how do you know if they like you too?
-Is it Viggo?
-What do you think?
I knew it.
My golden tip is, don't run away from it.
Just talk to him.
But Viggo is so popular.
He never talks to guys like me.
Sometimes you just have to do
what scares you most.
Especially if you make horror games.
Here.
The "I can talk to Viggo" smoothie.
With extra cinnamon and
Popping candy.
Yeah. For the extra shock.
And?
I'll think about it.
Thanks, Magenta.
Look. I made a list of keywords
for when I bump into Jason.
Show me.
Singapore. Favorite films.
Favorite snacks.
Sensitive teeth?
-Field mice?
-Yes.
They're so cute, aren't they?
Okay, see you later.
-You don't even want me as a cactus?
-Who said that?
-So you admit it?
-No, not at all.
I don't know what's worse.
Saying it or denying it.
SHE CAN'T EVEN PLAY A CACTUS
Sterre, that's fake. I never posted that.
If you don't think I can act,
Julia, just say it.
Juul, what is this?
Your top three guys with Jason first?
-I didn't
-Glad I'm in your top three.
Nick's voicemail.
-Nick's not picking up.
-And Sterre?
She's not either.
Who do you think is behind it?
-Am I interrupting?
-Field mice.
-What?
-They're really cute, aren't they?
-Don't you think so?
-Field mice?
Do you also suffer
from sensitive teeth in Singapore?
What's it like there?
Good.
I'll be right back.
Could I have two Maple Monkeys, please?
-Hey, Viggo.
-What?!
You got me.
If you like horror games,
you probably like jump scares.
Exactly how it should go.
It only works
if the monster is real, okay?
-Hey, Viggo.
-Yes, very funny.
Hey.
I heard something about monsters.
No.
Yes, we were talking about you.
I mean, about horror.
Okay. About me and horror.
Magenta scared me
by pretending you were there.
Why is that scary?
I have to go.
I need some tips
from you for my role as Nick.
The meeting scene.
How did Nick feel when he first saw you?
In love.
And you?
Me too.
-What is this?
-Nick, sit with us.
No, thank you.
You've chosen your number one then, Juul.
Nick.
Don't worry so much. Girls are like that.
-What if it's true?
-So what?
-That means she likes Jason.
-You're imagining things.
Jason lives with Julia.
When I think of Julia,
I see his perfect, annoying smile.
He does have a beautiful smile.
I would rate him number one too.
-Yes, thank you.
-What did Julia say about it?
She said she didn't post it.
Then who did?
No idea.
ONE NEW MESSAGE
PHASE ONE IN PROGRESS
Julia. New here.
Magenta. Old here.
Here. New script.
Thank you.
Hey, everything okay?
Yes. It's just a lot.
You're doing really well.
We don't have dance choreography,
no rapper
I can do a choreo.
I do it for the team as a warm-up.
-Well, that's something, right?
-And the rapper?
We'll find one. It's okay.
Okay. Everyone, get ready for rehearsal.
Hey, Magenta. How are you doing?
Good.
And with the tutoring too, I hope?
You never know when the next test is.
Yes, we must be well prepared.
And remember what I said, okay?
It's a real crime
to waste your intelligence.
SCRIPTS DISTRIBUTED
AWAIT FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS
Okay. We're rehearsing the meeting scene
between Julia and Magenta. Everyone ready?
Action.
Are you okay?
Yes, thank you.
Hey. I'm Julia. New here.
Magenta. Old here.
-Do you want a cupcake?
-Why would I?
Rule two is "Make sure
you take control of everyone."
-You don't care how people feel?
-No. Everything revolves around me.
Stop. This is a joke, right?
This is what the script says.
What is rule one?
Make sure you always get your own way.
Who changed this?
Julia. You need to see this. Come on.
Somebody is sabotaging us.
