Misfit: The Series (2021) s01e07 Episode Script

The Show Must Go On

1
Agnes' induction ceremony is tomorrow
and we'll use our musical to show
that Highland High should stay as it is.
We're going to sing, dance.
We'll do everything we can.
Ready for rehearsal?
Let's go.
If you shine inside
You don't need a spotlight
Dare to dream
Do you have the script?
Laminated, bound, and with a velvet cover.
Wow, so fast.
New rule, do whatever
Sterre asks at impossible speeds.
Okay, Ster.
So you're even more needy, judgmental,
and high-maintenance than before?
I know!
Okay. Choreo update, please.
-The dancers are pretty much trained.
-Yes.
The moves are almost complete.
I hear a "but."
I don't know exactly.
There's something missing.
-You sniffed three times.
-I feel incomplete.
-Like a puzzle with a missing piece.
-Esmée, you give us strength and energy.
Sterre, you give us
glamour and leadership.
And exclusive goody bags.
-Yes.
-I give you perfection and speed.
But there's only one person
who brings warmth and a smile.
Someone who doesn't understand the world.
But is very enthusiastic and sweet.
Though she doesn't even know why.
I have no idea what we're doing
but I'm so glad to be back.
Now we're complete.
The perfect confetti finish.
-Congratulations.
-Thank you. But we're not done yet.
I was talking to Juul.
Me?
"Due to her exceptional attitude,
Julia Martens was accepted
to the Musical Academy, New York."
What? Are you going to New York?
Not. No, it's not nice. No.
Seriously, Martens?
Is that why you put me in charge?
No. I did that
because you're better at it.
Not because you're moving
to another school.
Juul
Guys, wait.
This is clearly the saboteur's doing.
Sorry, Juul.
Agnes gave me this letter and I thought
You got me there.
Of course I'd go to New York,
but you never would, right?
Right?
-Julia?
-It's true.
I did audition
for the Musical Academy, New York.
Agnes arranged it for me.
This is a joke, right?
So we're trying to save Highland High
by convincing Agnes with our musical
and you're secretly auditioning
for that school with Agnes' help?
-Does that not mean anything to you?
-Nothing at all?
I suddenly thought
Juul, are you the
Really, Julia?
Did you destroy those dresses?
Sterre, I'd never do that.
Well, saboteur or not,
you just killed the musical.
I can't believe
Julia auditioned without telling us.
it's crazy to think
she would destroy the dresses.
But she did have a motive.
And an opportunity.
And a method. Just like everyone else.
Actually, I should be relieved.
If Julia is the mole, I'm not.
How do you identify a mole?
Short legs, black fur, small eyes.
It would be easy
if the liar just grew a long nose.
Did you know
people's faces change when they lie?
-Like?
-The nostrils flare.
Your nose literally gets bigger.
You touch your face more often,
blink more, and your pupils
are much larger than normal.
It's easy to see someone's pupils.
Look at me.
-Quite big.
-Yours too.
People in love also have large pupils.
So everyone with large pupils
is either in love
or a liar?
POINTS
Okay, the test results.
I'm not going to get 3,000 points.
2990 OUT OF 3000
INSUFFICIENT POINTS
So.
Wait. This is supposed to be Saar?
And her actions caused Agnes to get messy.
Meanwhile,
the saboteur cut up the dresses.
Think back to when you saw the saboteur.
What did you see?
A mask.
-A hood.
-What else?
Ink on the left hand.
Song lyrics? Was it Nick?
They were numbers.
-I only see the mask now.
-But the saboteur got a good look at you.
Yes.
And that worked out well.
Because I wasn't in the hall.
So the saboteur could put the blame on me.
By writing this letter.
I'm sorry Tara,
but I think it's best to share.
-Why was the saboteur wearing a mask?
-To avoid being recognized.
There's a camera in the hallway
but not in the rehearsal room itself.
So the saboteur wore a mask to enter
the room without being recognized.
But putting a mask on
in the hallway is risky.
-What do you mean?
-People could see.
Also, the saboteur works for Agnes.
And who is the only one
with access to the camera footage?
Agnes.
There must be footage
of the saboteur with no mask
entering the rehearsal room
around 3:15 p.m.
Have you thought about my request?
Perhaps.
I need you to answer a few questions
correctly during the ceremony
so that Highland High can join too.
How many questions?
With ten questions and ten right answers,
we'll get 3,000 points.
Magenta,
it's okay to put yourself first now.
It can't be anyone who was
in the canteen. Or can it?
One of them was so smart
that we didn't notice that he
Or she.
left the hall without us realizing.
But how?
The question isn't just how, but when?
During Saar's epic fail.
It's about distraction.
Saar's epic fail was the distraction.
That allowed the saboteur
to escape and do their sabotaging.
Which would mean
that Saar knows our saboteur.
Two leads, Saar Rozenblad
and the camera footage.
We make a good detective team.
A creative talent like you
at a big theater school.
This is a joke, right?
You just killed the musical.
Hey.
I made a super-sized sundae,
but I don't have anyone to eat it with.
I ruined it.
Thank you.
I should have told everyone.
Agreed. But everyone does
stupid things sometimes, right?
I've let all my friends down.
You have two options.
We talk about what you could have done,
or you accept what you did
and try to put it right.
What do you want?
Do you want to go to New York?
Or will you stay a Misfit.
-A Misfit, of course.
-So, what are you going to do?
Here.
Hey.
I want to explain
to everyone what happened.
Can we meet up
at the rehearsal room this afternoon?
I hope so.
Until then.
She deserves a chance to explain.
Would everyone think that?
If they are real friends, yes.
HIGHLAND HIGH
-Hey.
-Hey.
-Everything okay?
-I have to concentrate. Important moment.
Hey, Viggo.
I've liked you for a long time.
Really?
-Viggo doesn't talk like that.
-It's about the idea.
I didn't know you liked me
because you always say weird things to me.
Yes. That's because I'm scared
I'll say something stupid.
Then I just say stupid things,
and if I say stupid things
Morris.
Ask your question.
So I wanted to ask you
if you'd like to go out with me sometime.
Well done, Snorris. And now for real.
Okay.
I'm going to do it.
I want to ask you something and
I don't want to regret not doing this.
-Are you going to rap?
-No, that's not what I mean.
I don't want to regret what I've wanted
to say to you for a while.
The test results.
It's a word that starts with D,
has four syllables, and it's all of you.
-Disappointment.
-Exactly.
Highland High didn't get 3,000 points.
So now, for the first time in my career,
I have to get the final points
at the induction ceremony.
I have chosen two students to do this.
The students with the lowest scores
must now leave.
EXIT LIS
-Viggo.
-No, Viggo.
How awful.
Viggo, wait.
Listen.
What I wanted to say
I like you.
A lot. And I hope
you'll want to meet up with me.
I'd love to run for my life right now,
but I won't because I'd regret it.
-I
-I get it.
You have a boyfriend.
How could you not? I mean
That sounds like fun.
Then if we flip to chapter three,
we can look at
We heard that Agnes asked you
to make sure we get 3,000 points.
Correct. Together with Machteld Roos.
We'll be stuck with Agnes' rules forever.
What will you do?
I don't know yet. What do you think?
I would only get the answers wrong.
I'm so bad at quizzes.
Joc, that's a brilliant idea.
-What?
-Yes.
Lisa, just get all the answers wrong.
That is perfect.
So, deal?
Deal.
Hi.
-Are the rest not coming?
-No.
Since your news, we've lost everyone.
Not everyone.
Definitely not.
I think everyone's here.
Magenta?
You wanted to say something?
First of all,
I want to say I'm really sorry.
-I wasn't going to audition.
-But you did.
It was a mistake. It was over with Nick,
and I felt different.
Agnes kept telling me
to put myself first, so I did.
But at the audition, I missed you.
So I told the committee
that I belong here at Highland High.
Not in New York.
I'm sorry for not telling you.
Was that it?
I have to go rehearse for the ceremony.
-What do you mean?
-I'm putting myself first.
Just like you.
I chose to stay here
and not go to New York.
You put yourself first
but others aren't allowed to.
We can still save Highland High.
Do your best
-I won't stop you.
-What are you going to do?
I'll focus on my own future.
Agnes said if I get 3,000 points,
I can go to the best university.
Juul.
-That was really brave of you.
-Thank you.
But,
I've been thinking.
I think it's stupid and I'll miss you,
but you don't have to stay here for us.
Or for me.
-What do you mean?
-Chase your dream.
This is your chance.
I don't want to stop you.
So you think I should go?
Yes.
-What does that mean for us?
-We stay together.
You'll just live in New York
and I'll be here.
ADMISSION QUIZ REHEARSAL
Welcome to the admission rehearsal.
Concentrate very hard on the question
and only answer if you are sure.
Okay. How far above sea level is Calcutta?
-Ten meters.
-Good.
That is a perfect example
of a wrong answer.
Only press if you know it.
Nine meters.
-Magenta.
-I'll help with the 3,000 points.
Yes. Thank you.
Why are you here?
-I changed my mind.
-What do the others think?
I don't care.
What does the Polish word smok mean?
-Dragon.
-Another word for at the same time?
Simultaneously.
Correct.
You're on Agnes' side?
It's not that crazy, Morris. Be smart.
If I do my best, I can go far.
And give up everything we've fought for?
-I'm not the only one.
-No.
Magenta, Julia put herself first.
You took the enemy's side.
There's a difference.
Nick's voicemail.
Dear Nick.
Highland High is our school.
Our place.
It's where we saw each other
for the first time and met our friends.
And so
it hurts to say goodbye.
I've decided to go to New York.
I'll miss you.
