True Jackson, VP (2008) s01e20 Episode Script

TRUE JACKSON, VP WAS FILMED IN FRONT OF A LIVE STUDIO AUDIENCE.
WHAT'S WRONG, LULU? NOTHING.
YOU LOOK CONFUSED.
I'M PLAYING HIDE AND SEEK WITH RYAN.
I CAN'T FIND HIM.
ARE YOU SURE HE'S IN HERE? TOTALLY.
CABINET.
CABINET.
TOO EASY.
HUH.
I DON'T KNOW, LULU.
I'M SURE HE'LL TURN UP.
[GROAN.]
RYAN.
HOW'D HE GET IN THE COUCH? HEY, TRUE, THERE'S AN EMERGENCY STAFF MEETING IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM.
LULU TOO.
THANKS, OSCAR.
OW, OW.
UH-OH, THE MEETING STARTED.
HE ALREADY KICKED OUT KOPELMAN.
SIT DOWN, LADIES.
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO DELIVER THE GOOD NEWS.
OH, I LIKE GOOD NEWS.
I COULD SURE USE SOME.
SOMETHING WRONG, LULU? WELL, IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL, BUT I WANTED A NEW BACKPACK FOR SCHOOL.
MY MOM WAS ALL, "WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR OLD ONE?" AND I'M LIKE, "IT HAS VALENTINE MCDOUGAL ON IT.
" AND SHE'S LIKE, "I THOUGHT YOU LOVE VALENTINE MCDOUGAL.
" AND I'M LIKE, "YEAH, WHEN I WAS FIVE.
" WRAP IT UP, WRAP IT UP.
ANYWAY, I COULD SURE USE SOME GOOD NEWS.
I AM DELIGHTED TO INFORM YOU ALL THAT MAD STYLE HAS BEEN INVITED TO DESIGN A WINDOW FOR LIAM'S DEPARTMENT STORE.
REALLY? THAT'S AMAZING.
WHAT IS IT? ONLY THE FANCIEST STORE IN NEW YORK.
INSTEAD OF ESCALATORS, THEY HAVE PEOPLE CARRY YOU UPSTAIRS.
THEIR WATER FOUNTAIN RUNS PURE LIQUID GOLD.
BUT DON'T DRINK IT 'CAUSE IT'LL KILL YOU.
EVERY YEAR, 10 TOP DESIGNERS ARE INVITED TO CREATE A WINDOW IN FRONT OF THE STORE.
MY FAVORITE WAS THE YEAR EMILE CARDELLINI TURNED THE WINDOW INTO A MEDIEVAL CASTLE, WITH A DOZEN WHITE DRESSES HAUNTING A KING MADE OUT OF NECKTIES.
MAN, IT WAS AMAZING.
EVEN MY DAD THOUGHT SO AND HE'S USUALLY, "IT'S JUST A WINDOW, GET IN THE CAR.
" DO WE HAVE ANY THOUGHTS OF WHAT OUR DISPLAY MIGHT BE? THIS YEAR, EACH WINDOW WILL REPRESENT A DIFFERENT U.
S.
CITY.
WE HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED AUSTIN, TEXAS.
AUSTIN? WHO'S EVER BEEN TO AUSTIN? MY UNCLE REGGIE GOES THERE ALL THE TIME JUST TO BUY BARBECUE SAUCE.
NO REAL PLAN.
HE JUST GETS UP FROM THE TABLE, WALKS OUT THE DOOR, YOU DON'T SEE HIM FOR TWO WEEKS.
WHAT OTHER DESIGNERS ARE DOING IT? THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ANNOUNCED YET.
IT'S ALL VERY HUSH HUSH.
YES, LULU? WHY AM I HERE? I WANT AS MANY IDEAS AS POSSIBLE.
THE BUZZ FROM A GREAT WINDOW CAN TRANSLATE TO BIG SALES FOR A FULL YEAR.
IT'S A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY.
LET'S ALL DO SOME THINKATATING AND MEET BACK HERE, SHALL WE SAY, FIRST THING TOMORROW? ABOUT THAT.
YES, TRUE? WE GO BACK TO SCHOOL TOMORROW.
[MUSIC.]
YOU DROPPED SOMETHING FROM MY HEAD TO MY TOES IT'S ALL REAL, AND YOU KNOW FRESH AND COOL IT'S JUST WHAT I DO T-R-U-E J-A-C-K-S-O-N, V-P WORKIN' AT A GROWN-UP JOB NEVER REALLY KNEW I COULD WORK THIS HARD USED TO SIT AT HOME AND WATCH TV NOW I'M IN AN OFFICE AS A NEW VP I'M ALWAYS SETTING TRENDS WITH MY TWO BEST FRIENDS WHEN THINGS GET OUT OF HAND WE HAVE A PLAN WE'RE JUST MESSIN' AROUND AND WE'RE MAKIN' NEW GROUND FOR THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD TO SEE IF YOU SEE US IN TOWN YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOIN' DOWN 'CAUSE I'M THE NEW VP I HAVE TO SAY I ALWAYS KNEW THIS DAY WOULD COME, JUST AT A BIT OF A LOSS HOW TO FEEL ABOUT IT.
NO, NO, NO, MR.
MADIGAN.
YOU'VE GOT IT ALL WRONG.
I DON'T HAVE TO QUIT.
LOTS OF KIDS HAVE WORK STUDY.
MIKEY J'S BROTHER WORKS AT HAMBURGER DETECTIVE AFTER SCHOOL.
I COULD TAKE ALL MY CLASSES IN THE MORNING AND BE HERE RIGHT AFTER LUNCH.
GEE, IT SOUNDS LIKE AN AWFUL LOT TO JUGGLE.
IT'S NOT, REALLY.
I CAN DO BOTH.
MIKEY J'S BROTHER GOT PROMOTED TO BURGER MASTER GENERAL.
WELL, I'M WILLING TO GIVE IT A SHOT IF YOU ARE.
I WON'T LET YOU DOWN, SIR.
GOOD.
DESIGNING THIS WINDOW IS A BIG OPPORTUNITY FOR MAD STYLE.
WE'LL GET TO WORK ON THE DESIGNS RIGHT NOW.
RIGHT AFTER WE GO OVER OUR CLASS SCHEDULE.
JUST KIDDING.
OSCAR, ANY CALLS? YES, A LISA MARIE.
WHAT DID SHE WANT? SHE SAID SHE'S COMING TO TOWN.
WHEN? SHE DIDN'T SAY.
HOW COULD SHE NOT SAY? WHAT KIND OF MESSAGE IS THAT? YOU'VE LEFT OUT A KEY PIECE OF INFORMATION.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU.
NO.
AMANDA, WHAT'S WRONG? NOTHING'S WRONG.
WHO SAID ANYTHING IS WRONG? YOU KNOW, I DON'T APPRECIATE IT WHEN PEOPLE JUMP TO CRAZY CONCLUSIONS.
YOU SURE YOU STILL WANNA WORK HERE? HMM.
HA.
FOUND YOU.
THAT'S AMAZING.
HOW'D YOU FIND ME SITTING ON THE COUCH IN FULL VIEW WITH ALL THE LIGHTS ON? DID YOU GET YOUR CLASS SCHEDULE? OH, YEAH, IT'S IN MY BACKPACK.
HOMEROOM.
CHECK.
AMERICAN HISTORY.
CHECK.
CHECK.
BORING.
YOU DON'T LIKE LITERATURE? I LIKE SOME LITERATURE.
LIKE KTATH, GOMAQ OF THE CLIFF PEOPLE, ISSUE 3: SLAUGHTERFEST IN THE CANYON OF DESPAIR.
DIDN'T YOU FIND IT DUMB WHEN THE CLIFF PEOPLE TURNED OUT TO BE A FIGMENT OF KTATH'S IMAGINATION? ACTUALLY, I HAVEN'T FINISHED IT YET, BUT THANK YOU.
WELL, I LOVE THIS YEAR, WE'RE READING PRIDE AND PREJUDICE.
I KNOW.
ROMANCE, BETRAYAL, MISTAKEN IDENTITY, FANCY COSTUMES.
IT'S LIKE LAST YEAR AT MATH CAMP.
MAN, I AM PSYCHED FOR SCHOOL.
YOU ARE? YEAH.
I GOT A LITTLE TRICK UP MY SLEEVE.
YOU KNOW KELSEY? OH, THE GIRL THAT'S NEVER GONNA GO ON A DATE WITH YOU EVER? YEP.
I'VE GOT A PLAN TO GET HER TO GO ON A DATE WITH ME.
IT'S A STANDING BACKFLIP.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? I DIDN'T WANNA MAKE A WHOLE THING OF IT, BUT FOR THREE HOURS EVERY MORNING, THIS ENTIRE SUMMER, I'VE BEEN TAKING GYMNASTICS.
WHY? BECAUSE TOMORROW MORNING AT SCHOOL, I'M GONNA WALK STRAIGHT UP TO KELSEY, SAY GOOD MORNING AND DO A STANDING BACKFLIP.
IT'S A PERFECT PLAN.
YOU THINK SHE'S GONNA GO OUT WITH YOU JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN DO A BACKFLIP? YES, I DO.
WE'RE PROBABLY GONNA GET MARRIED BECAUSE OF THIS.
I'M STARTING TO THINK HE LANDED ON HIS HEAD WHILE HE WAS PRACTICING.
I CAN HEAR YOU.
AMANDA, ARE YOU OKAY? WELL, YES.
WHY WOULD YOU THINK OTHERWISE? YOU'RE EATING YOUR SOUP WITH A KNIFE.
NO WONDER I'M STILL HUNGRY AND MY MOUTH IS BLEEDING.
WHAT'S WRONG? MY SISTER IS COMING FOR A VISIT.
I DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAD A SISTER.
WE'RE TWINS, ACTUALLY.
SHE'S THE MEAN ONE.
SHE'S THE MEAN ONE? YOU SOUND SURPRISED.
YEAH, I WAS TRYING REALLY HARD NOT TO.
SHE'S VERY COMPETITIVE AND SHE HAS A HUGE EGO.
SHE JUST CAN'T HANDLE THE FACT THAT I'M SO MUCH MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN SHE IS.
HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN SINCE YOU'VE SEEN HER? WELL, NOT SINCE THE HOLIDAYS.
AND EVEN THEN, WE DON'T REALLY SEE EACH OTHER.
IF SHE'S IN THE KITCHEN, I'M IN THE LIVING ROOM.
IF SHE'S IN THE LIVING ROOM, I'M IN THE DINING ROOM.
I'VE GONE UP TO A MONTH IN THE SAME HOUSE WITHOUT EVEN SEEING HER.
WE HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN WITH MY UNCLE REGGIE.
TURNS OUT HE WAS JUST IN KANSAS CITY BUYING KETCHUP.
IS IT ME OR DOES EVERYONE LOOK WAY OLDER THAN LAST YEAR? I KNOW, RIGHT? AND DID THEY PASS SOME SORT OF LAW THAT EVERY GUY HAS TO COMB THEIR HAIR FORWARD? THERE'S A WHOLE LOTTA ZAC EFRON GOING ON.
HEY, TRUE, LULU.
HEY, RYAN.
NICE GET-UP.
DID YOUR MOM LAY IT OUT FOR YOU? YES.
YOU LOOK NICE.
IT'S A CHANGE FROM YOUR USUAL PICK-SOMETHING-OUT-OF-THE-HAMPER OUTFIT.
I DON'T HAVE A HAMPER.
WHO AM I, THE MAYOR? I WONDER WHERE MY BOYFRIEND IS.
LULU, YOU'RE NOT GONNA BE ALL, "MY BOYFRIEND THIS, MY BOYFRIEND THAT," ARE YOU? I'LL TRY TO KEEP IT COOL.
EXCELLENT.
MY BOYFRIEND'S HERE.
HEY, GIRLFRIEND.
THAT'S STILL FUN TO SAY.
THERE'S KELSEY.
SHOWTIME.
KELSEY, WHAT'S GOING ON? NOTHING MUCH, CARL.
IT'S RYAN.
BY THE WAY, CHECK THIS OUT.
HI, KELSEY.
HEY.
WHY ARE YOU ALL RED AND SWEATY? THERE'S NO REASON.
MAYBE IT'S 'CAUSE I WAS DOING THIS.
I LIKE YOUR SHOES.
THANKS.
ARE YOU HAVING A HEART ATTACK? SOMEBODY HELP CARL.
HE'S HAVING A HEART ATTACK.
TAKE YOUR SEATS, EVERYONE.
I TRUST YOU ALL HAD A NICE SUMMER.
ANYBODY DO ANYTHING INTERESTING? I BECAME VICE-PRESIDENT OF NEW YORK'S BIGGEST FASHION COMPANY.
AND SHE MADE ME HER ASSISTANT.
EXCITING.
ANYONE ELSE? I READ A BOOK.
I DOUBT THAT.
WELL, KIDS, SUMMER IS OVER AND IT'S TIME TO FOCUS ON SCHOOL.
UH, MS.
PARK? YES, LULU? BEFORE WE START, I JUST WANTED TO CLEAR ONE THING UP.
I HAVE A BOYFRIEND NOW.
IT'S MIKEY J.
MIKEY J IS MY BOYFRIEND NOW.
STAND UP, MIKEY J.
WE'RE BOYFRIEND AND GIRLFRIEND.
I THINK WE GET IT, LULU.
NOW SIT DOWN.
AS I WAS SAYING, IT IS TIME TO GET FOCUSED.
THAT MEANS NO GAMES.
THIS IS MINE NOW.
THANK YOU, NEIL.
ALSO, I WILL NOT TOLERATE CHIT CHAT, TEXTING OR CELL PHONES.
OOH, THAT REMINDS ME, I GOTTA CALL OSCAR.
MAD STYLE.
HEY, OSCAR, IT'S ME, TRUE.
CAN YOU MAKE SURE MY AUSTIN RESEARCH IS READY FOR THE PRESENTATION? CAN YOU SPEAK UP? NO.
I'M IN HOMEROOM.
WHAT TIME IS THE MEETING? 3:00.
I'LL TAKE THAT.
BUT YOU CAN HAVE IT BACK AFTER DETENTION.
DETENTION? WHEN'S THAT OVER? 4:00.
LULU, CALL OSCAR AND TELL HIM I WON'T BE AT THE 3:00 MEETING.
I CAN'T.
I'M TEXTING MIKEY J.
LULU, DETENTION.
[PHONE RINGS.]
MIKEY J, DETENTION.
SOUNDS LIKE MS.
PARK LEARNED A NEW WORD OVER THE SUMMER.
KELSEY, DETENTION.
DO I GET DETENTION, TOO? FOR WHAT? I JUST DID BACKFLIP IN CLASS.
I DIDN'T SEE IT.
BUT YOU SAW IT, RIGHT? MS.
PARK, CARL'S BOTHERING ME.
SIT DOWN, CARL.
WELL, WE SHOULD PROBABLY START.
KOPELMAN, GET OUT.
WAIT A SECOND.
YOU'RE HAPPY TO LEAVE, AREN'T YOU? KOPELMAN, SIT.
AMANDA, WOULD YOU LIKE TO PRESENT YOUR IDEA FOR THE WINDOW DISPLAY? YES, OF COURSE.
[MUSIC.]
THE PRODUCTION VALUE WAS IMPRESSIVE, BUT THE DISPLAY APPEARS TO BE BLANK.
YEAH, I COULDN'T THINK OF ANYTHING.
AMANDA, WHAT'S WRONG? WHO SAID ANYTHING IS WRONG? IT'S NOT LIKE MY TWIN SISTER IS COMING TO VISIT.
YOUR TWIN SISTER IS COMING? WHO TOLD YOU THAT? IT WAS OSCAR, WASN'T IT? OH.
HE SHOULD MIND HIS OWN BUSINESS.
AMANDA, CALM DOWN.
I'M PERFECTLY CALM.
I WONDER WHERE TRUE IS.
I HATE DETENTION.
IT'S LIKE PRISON.
I CAN'T BREATHE.
WE GOTTA BREAK OUT OF HERE, TRUE.
I WANT TO SEE MY FAMILY JUST ONE MORE TIME.
CALM DOWN, LULU.
YOU'RE GONNA GET US IN TROUBLE.
TROUBLE HOW? WE'RE ALREADY IN DETENTION.
YOU CAN'T GET MORE DETENTION.
YES, YOU CAN.
SEE? SHE CAN HEAR ME? BUT I'M WHISPERING.
NO, YOU'RE NOT.
[BELL RINGS.]
OKAY, DETENTION IS OVER.
BUT BEFORE YOU GO, I WANT YOU TO-- YOU SAID DETENTION WAS OVER.
BYE, MISS PARK.
DAD.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? WELL, DIDN'T I TELL YOU? I'M THE JANITOR HERE NOW.
GOOD ONE, DAD.
BUT SERIOUSLY.
I JUST GOT CALLED OUT OF A DEPOSITION TO LEARN THAT MY BABY GIRL GOT DETENTION.
CARE TO GIVE ME THE FULL STORY? NO, SOUNDS LIKE YOU GOT MOST OF IT.
SIT DOWN.
IN SEVEN GENERATIONS, YOU ARE THE FIRST JACKSON TO GET DETENTION, AND THAT INCLUDES GREAT GRANDDADDY STERLING JACKSON, THE BOOTLEGGER.
WHAT'S GOING ON? I WAS JUST MAKING A FEW SIMPLE BUSINESS CALLS DURING HOMEROOM.
BUSINESS CALLS? NO.
THIS JOB OF YOURS, TRUE, I DON'T KNOW.
DAD, MY JOB IS REALLY IMPORTANT.
SO IS GETTING AN EDUCATION.
I CAN DO BOTH.
MIKEY J'S BROTHER WAS BURGER MASTER GENERAL.
THERE WAS NOT A SINGLE WORD IN THAT SENTENCE THAT I UNDERSTOOD.
COME ON, DAD, I PROMISE I'LL MAKE SCHOOL MY NUMBER ONE PRIORITY.
OKAY.
GREAT.
NOW IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME, I'M LATE FOR A 3:00.
DID YOU JUST LITTER? BOY, I'LL PUT YOU IN THE TRASH CAN IF YOU THERE YOU ARE.
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? MISS PARK GAVE ME DETENTION FOR USING MY PHONE IN CLASS, WHICH ISN'T EVEN FAIR BECAUSE SHE USED HER PHONE IN CLASS WHEN SHE TRIED TO WIN TICKETS TO SOME SINGLES CRUISE.
THE ONE THAT DISEMBARKS ON THE 15th? OR THE 24th? I DON'T KNOW.
WELL, WE HAVE TO BRAINSTORM IDEAS.
LOOK, IF WE CAN JUST AVOID MAX FOR AN HOUR OR TWO-- DID SOMEONE MENTION IDEAS? YES, AND WE HAVE GOT SOME GREAT ONES.
TRUE, YOU GO FIRST.
ME? I WROTE DOWN A FEW IDEAS.
PRIDE AND PREJUDICE.
THAT'S THE WRONG ONE.
VERY INTERESTING, WAY TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX, TRUE.
OUR WINDOW HAS TO BE INSPIRED BY AUSTIN, BUT NO ONE WILL BE EXPECTING JANE AUSTEN.
THAT'S A GOOD IDEA OF MINE.
WE CAN USE FABRIC AND MATERIALS TO CONVEY THE SPIRIT OF ENGLAND.
MAYBE GREEN SCARVES AS THE ROLLING FIELDS.
AND BLUE CARPETING ON THE FLOOR TO LOOK LIKE WATER.
OOH, FANCY CLOTHES.
AND A CASTLE.
IT'S LIKE MATH CAMP.
THIS IS GETTING EXCITING.
COME ON, LET'S GO CHECK OUT THE SPACE.
EXCUSE ME, SIR.
AMANDA? OH, HEAVENS NO, AMANDA'S MY SISTER.
WE'RE TWINS.
SHE'S THE PRETTY ONE.
WELL, YOU'RE PRETTY, TOO.
STOP IT.
SOMEONE SHOULD SIGN YOU UP FOR A NICE CONTEST.
WELL, I'M SORRY TO TELL YOU, BUT AMANDA JUST STEPPED OUT.
HOW EXCITING.
WELL, I DON'T MIND WAITING AROUND AS LONG AS I'M NOT IN YOUR WAY.
OH, NOT AT ALL.
I HOPE YOU LIKE HOMEMADE COOKIES.
DO I? AND WOULD YOU MIND IF I BORROWED YOUR PHONE? I'D LIKE TO ORDER SOME BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS FOR THE WHOLE OFFICE.
MM-HMM.
GOOD SPACE.
NICE LIGHT.
I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M HERE.
THIS IS AMAZING.
IT SORT OF FEELS LIKE WE'RE IN A FISHBOWL, EXCEPT THERE'S NO TREASURE CHEST OR FISH POOP.
WHEN DO WE GET TO MEET THE OTHER DESIGNERS? WELL, I DON'T KNOW.
BUT I DO SUPPOSE THEY'RE ALSO HERE WORKING ON THEIR OWN WINDOW DISPLAYS.
I'M A LITTLE NERVOUS ABOUT MEETING THEM.
OH, THEY'RE JUST PEOPLE, TRUE.
THERE'S NOTHING TO BE NERVOUS ABOUT.
HEY.
SOPHIE GIRARD.
THAT'S SOPHIE GIRARD? WHO'S SOPHIE GIRARD? SHE'S A FANCY DESIGNER FROM PARIS.
IF I WOULD'VE KNOWN WE WERE GONNA BE NEIGHBORS, I WOULD HAVE DRESSED UP.
SORRY, I LOOK LIKE SUCH A RAGAMUFFIN.
HEY, YOU DON'T HAVE A FRENCH ACCENT AT ALL.
WHAT GAVE IT AWAY? THE WAY YOU'RE TALKING.
INSTEAD OF HAVING AN ACCENT, YOU DON'T.
I GOT RID OF IT.
THAT'S NOT THE ONLY THING SHE GOT RID OF.
SHE USED TO BE ENGAGED TO MR.
MADIGAN.
SO, MAX, A LITTLE BIRDIE TOLD ME THAT YOU GOT MARRIED.
WHO TOLD YOU? BIRDIE WILSON.
THAT'S TRUE.
AND A LITTLE BUNNY TOLD ME THAT YOUR ENGAGEMENT TO PIERRE ENDED.
WHO TOLD YOU? BUNNY DAVENPORT.
MAX, I'VE MISSED YOU.
I SUPPOSE YOU MISS ME TOO.
UM NO, HE DOESN'T.
MR.
MADIGAN'S WIFE IS THE NICEST, PRETTIEST LIBRARIAN IN OUR WHOLE SCHOOL.
YEAH, THE OTHER TWO ARE LIKE 80.
ONE HAS A METAL CUP WHERE HER NOSE USED TO BE.
WHO ARE THESE ADORABLE MOPPETS? HOW DARE YOU CALL THEM MOPPETS? THIS IS OUR NEWEST VICE PRESIDENT AND HER PERSONAL PRIVATE SECRETARY.
YOU DON'T LOOK FAMILIAR.
WHERE WERE YOU BEFORE MAD STYLE? SCHOOL.
THEN CAMP.
THEN SCHOOL AGAIN.
SO WHAT CITY IS YOUR WINDOW GONNA BE? ONLY THE CLASSIEST, MOST COSMOPOLITAN CITY IN AMERICA.
SUDBURY, MASSACHUSETTS.
SHE'S A REAL FIRECRACKER, ISN'T SHE? YOU MEAN IF YOU THREW HER IN THE AIR AND A SEAGULL CAUGHT HER, SHE COULD BLOW ITS HEAD OFF? LULU.
SORRY.
WELL, I SHOULD BE GETTING BACK TO THE OFFICE.
I DID NOT LIKE THE WAY THAT LADY LOOKED AT MR.
MADIGAN.
IT WAS LIKE SHE WAS A WILD TIGER AND HE WAS A PLATE OF CHEESEBURGERS.
HEY, OSCAR.
HEY, AMANDA.
DID TRUE AND LULU COME BACK HERE? NO, THEY WENT TO LIAM'S DEPARTMENT STORE TO WORK ON THEIR WINDOW DISPLAY.
WOULD YOU LIKE A COOKIE, YOUNG MAN? I MADE THEM MYSELF.
YOU'RE NOT AMANDA.
YOU'RE NICE.
I'M AMANDA'S TWIN SISTER.
I'M JUST VISITING FROM PLEASANTVILLE.
OH YEAH, WHAT DO YOU DO THERE? I'M THE MAYOR.
PAINTING'S A LOT LIKE MOVIES WITH TALKING DOGS.
THEY'RE FUN FOR A MINUTE BUT THEN YOU GET CRAZY DIZZY AND WISH IT WAS OVER.
COME ON, LULU.
THIS IS SO EXCITING.
WE WERE LOOKING AT THIS EXACT WINDOW SINCE WE WERE LITTLE GIRLS.
REMEMBER? IT'S SO COOL.
THIS WINDOW? NO.
MY VALENTINE MCDOUGAL BACKPACK.
I'M GONNA LOVE IT FOREVER.
YOU KNOW WHAT, LULU? SOMEDAY I'M GONNA DESIGN A DRESS THAT'LL BE IN THIS EXACT WINDOW.
NOT EVEN.
YOU DON'T THINK I CAN? NO, I DO.
REALLY? NO.
YOU SAID WHAT NOW? IF I CAN GO BACK IN TIME AND TELL THE LITTLE ME THAT I'D BE IN THIS WINDOW, I'D PROBABLY BE SO EXCITED I'D PEE MY PANTS.
ME TOO, BUT ONLY BECAUSE I'D BE SO FREAKED OUT ABOUT FUTURE ME SHOWING UP.
ISN'T IT PAST YOUR BEDTIME? NOT YET.
PRETTY SOON, THOUGH.
I WAS TRYING TO BE SNARKY.
IT'S NO FUN BEING SNARKY IF NO ONE KNOWS YOU'RE BEING SNARKY.
SORRY.
WANT TO START OVER? NO, YOU WRECKED IT.
SO, WHERE IS YOUR MR.
MADIGAN THIS EVENING? AT HOME, WITH HIS WIFE.
HOW NICE FOR HER.
WELL, I'D BETTER GET BACK TO WORK.
OH, LET ME KNOW WHEN YOUR MOMMY COMES TO PICK YOU UP.
OKAY.
SHE SHOULD BE HERE SOON.
OR WERE YOU BEING SNARKY AGAIN? WHAT'S THE USE? I HAVE A BAD FEELING ABOUT THAT ONE, LULU.
SHE'S GOT A CREEPY SMILE.
THE SAME ONE MR.
JAMESON GETS RIGHT BEFORE HE CUTS OPEN A FROG.
[CAR HONKING.]
OH, THERE'S MY MOM.
IS IT COOL IF I TAKE OFF? GO AHEAD.
I'M JUST GONNA FINISH THE WALLS THEN I'LL CALL IT A NIGHT.
ALL RIGHT.
CALL ME BEFORE SCHOOL AND TELL ME WHAT TO WEAR.
MORNING.
WHAT DID I SAY, NEIL? NO BASEBALL CAPS IN CLASS.
THIS IS MINE NOW.
WHAT'S WITH YOU? I JUST DID THREE STANDING BACK FLIPS IN THE HALLWAY.
KELSEY LOOKED AWAY FOR EVERY ONE OF THEM.
PROBABLY SHOULD'VE STRETCHED FIRST.
[BACK CRACKING.]
WHAT ARE YOU, MADE OUT OF BUBBLE WRAP? HEY, LULU.
HI, BOYFRIEND.
LISTEN.
IS EVERYTHING OKAY? I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SAY THIS, SO I'M JUST GONNA SAY IT.
I GOT INTO THE GIFTED PROGRAM.
OH.
TAKE YOUR SEATS, EVERYONE.
I'LL SEND FOR YOU.
CLASS, I WANT TO REMIND EVERYONE THAT WE'LL BEGIN TOMORROW WITH ORAL REPORTS.
AND NO, YOU CANNOT BURP YOUR REPORT FOR EXTRA CREDIT.
DETENTION? DETENTION.
DANG.
HEY, YOU KNOW, RYAN LIKES YOU.
I KNOW.
HOW COME YOU ALWAYS PRETEND YOU DON'T KNOW HIS NAME? MAKES HIM WORK HARDER.
IT'S CUTE.
MAN, THAT GUY IS AMAZING AT BACKFLIPS.
[BELL RINGING.]
DAD, I'M STARTING TO THINK YOU REALLY ARE THE JANITOR HERE.
THAT'S A PRETTY GOOD JOKE.
HERE'S A JOKE FOR YOU.
KNOCK, KNOCK.
DAD.
KNOCK, KNOCK.
WHO'S THERE? YOU'RE QUITTING YOUR JOB AT MAD STYLE, THAT'S WHO'S THERE.
BUT I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF MY BIG WINDOW PROJECT.
THEN FINISH IT.
BUT AFTER THAT, YOU'RE QUITTING.
WHAT IF I ACE MY ORAL EXAM TOMORROW? DO THEY STILL GIVE "A" PLUSES? I THINK SO.
THEN MAKE IT AN A PLUS.
OR YOU CAN SAY GOODBYE TO MAD STYLE.
HEY, TRUE, HOW WAS DETENTION? YOU KNOW HOW IN THE MOVIES DETENTION IS FULL OF NICE, BUT MISUNDERSTOOD KIDS? WELL, IN REAL LIFE, IT'S JUST A BUNCH OF PUNKS.
I'M KINDA FREAKING OUT.
THE WORST THING EVER HAPPENED TODAY.
WHATEVER YOU HAVE, I'M SURE MY NEWS IS WORSE.
MIKEY J GOT INTO THE GIFTED PROGRAM AT SCHOOL.
AND THAT'S BAD? FOR ME IT IS.
I JUST GOT HIM.
I DON'T WANT TO LOSE HIM.
HOW ARE YOU GONNA LOSE HIM? I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF GIRLS ARE IN THE GIFTED PROGRAM.
THEY MIGHT BE SMARTER, FUNNIER.
COME ON, LULU.
HE TOTALLY LIKES YOU.
HE THINKS YOU'RE ONE OF THE CUTEST GIRLS EVER.
ONE OF THE CUTEST GIRLS EVER? WHO ELSE IS CUTE? THIS IS WORSE THAN I THOUGHT.
LULU, MY DAD SAID UNLESS I GET AN "A" PLUS ON MY EXAM TOMORROW, I HAVE TO QUIT MY JOB.
NOT EVEN.
CAN YOU TALK HIM OUT OF IT? I DON'T THINK SO.
HE HAD ON HIS SERIOUS FACE, WORSE THAN THE TIME WHEN MY MOM PICKED HER TEETH WITH HIS HANK AARON BASEBALL CARD.
AND HE GOT SO UPSET HE STAYED AT THE HOTEL FOR THREE WHOLE DAYS TILL HE COOLED OFF.
AFTERNOON, LADIES.
WOW, WHAT ARE YOU SO HAPPY ABOUT? WELL, I JUST FIGURED OUT THE PERFECT NEW PLAN OF WINNING KELSEY'S HEART.
I'M GOING TO STUFF MYSELF IN HER LOCKER.
OH BROTHER.
NO, IT'LL BE AWESOME.
I JAM MYSELF IN HER LOCKER, SHE COMES BY, OPENS THE DOOR AND WHAMO.
SHE HAS A HEART ATTACK? NO, SHE'S SO CHARMED AND DELIGHTED THAT SHE CAN'T HELP BUT BE MY GIRLFRIEND.
MAN, I SHOULD WRITE A BOOK.
YOU SHOULD READ A BOOK.
HA HA HA.
OH, YOU CAN'T EVEN HURT MY FEELINGS.
GO AHEAD, TRY AGAIN.
YOU LOOK LIKE YOU WASHED YOUR HAIR WITH DISHWATER.
OKAY, THAT ONE HURT.
BONJOUR.
SOPHIE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? SHOULDN'T YOU BE WORKING ON YOUR WINDOW DISPLAY? I RAN OUT OF RED PAINT.
AND YOU CAME HERE FOR MORE? NO.
IT REMINDED ME OF THE TIME THAT WE RENTED THOSE RED BICYCLES AND SPENT THE DAY IN LE RIVE DU CHAPEAUX.
THAT'S NOT A PLACE.
IT MEANS THE RIVER OF HATS.
THOSE WERE SOME PRETTY MAGICAL TIMES.
DO YOU MISS THEM, MAX? NO.
HOLD ME CLOSE AND HOLD ME FAST THE MAGIC SPELL YOU CAST THIS IS LA VIE EN ROSE WHEN YOU KISS ME HEAVEN SIGHS WELL, THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY.
I HOPE YOU FIND YOUR RED PAINT.
DO I MAKE YOU NERVOUS, MAX? [LAUGHS.]
OF COURSE NOT.
I'VE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING SO ABSURD.
ANYWAY.
I'LL SEE YOU SOON.
[LAUGHS.]
OOPS.
DORIS.
CAN I ASK YOUR ADVICE? CERTAINLY.
I'M SORT OF FREAKING OUT BECAUSE MIKEY J GOT INTO THE GIFTED PROGRAM AT SCHOOL.
WHO'S MIKEY J? MY BOYFRIEND.
YOU'VE MET HIM LIKE A BILLION TIMES.
ANYWAY, I THINK I'M PROBABLY ELIGIBLE FOR THE GIFTED PROGRAM, TOO, SINCE I'M A SUPER MATH GENIUS BUT THAT WOULD MEAN LEAVING TRUE.
WHO'S TRUE? YOU MEAN, LIKE, WHO IS SHE COMPARED TO BEING WITH MIKEY J OR COMPARED TO GETTING THE BEST EDUCATION I CAN? LISTEN, YOU SEEM LIKE A REALLY SMART GIRL.
WHATEVER DECISION YOU MAKE WILL BE THE RIGHT DECISION.
COOKIE? ARE YOU OKAY? OF COURSE I'M OKAY.
WOW, THANKS FOR THE ADVICE.
I HAVE A LOT TO THINK ABOUT.
YOU'RE GONNA DO GREAT.
WHAT'S YOUR NAME? OSCAR, I'M GONNA GO OUT AND GET SOME MORE FLOWERS.
WILL YOU LET AMANDA KNOW THAT I'LL CATCH UP WITH HER LATER? THE COAST IS CLEAR.
THANK YOU.
I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU'RE AVOIDING HER.
SHE'S SO NICE.
YEAH, I GET IT.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN? MY ENTIRE LIFE, NO MATTER WHAT I ACCOMPLISHED, LISA MARIE DID ME ONE BETTER.
IF I WON A RIBBON, SHE WON A TROPHY.
IF I GOT A GOOD JOB, SHE GOT A GREAT JOB.
IF I BOUGHT A CAR, SHE GOT TO RIDE IN THE SPACE SHUTTLE.
HYPOTHETICALLY.
NO, THAT REALLY HAPPENED.
THEN THEY GOT MAROONED AND SHE FIXED THE ROCKET BOOSTER WITH SOME CANDY WRAPPERS AND A BARRETTE.
MY GOSH, THIS IS THE MOST DELICIOUS COOKIE I'VE EVER TASTED.
WHERE ARE THESE FROM? LISA MARIE MADE THEM.
OF COURSE SHE DID.
LITTLE HELP.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WHAT DO YOU THINK I'M DOING? PRACTICING GETTING STUCK IN A SMALL PLACE SO KELSEY WILL SEE THAT I'M SERIOUS ABOUT US BEING TOGETHER.
GET OUT.
I CAN'T, MY LEG'S ASLEEP.
I THINK YOUR BRAIN'S ASLEEP.
POSSIBLY.
I'VE BEEN IN HERE FOR EIGHT HOURS.
MORE LIKE EIGHT MINUTES.
NOW GET OUT.
WHOA, THIS WINDOW IS RI-DONKULOUS.
I KNOW, RIGHT? DIDN'T WE USE TO LOOK AT THIS EXACT WINDOW WHEN WE WERE KIDS? WE TOTALLY DID.
NOT BAD.
NOT BAD AT ALL.
YOU LIKE FASHION, RYAN? FASHION? NO, I'M LOOKING AT MY REFLECTION.
I AM PRETTY RI-DONKULOUS LOOKING.
OH BROTHER.
YOU THINK KELSEY LIKES ME? I DON'T KNOW.
SOMEDAY, I'M GONNA HOLD THAT GIRL'S HAND.
SOMEDAY I'M GONNA DESIGN A DRESS THAT'S GONNA BE HANGING IN THIS EXACT WINDOW.
COOL.
YOU REALLY THINK I CAN? NO.
YOU SAID WHAT NOW? IT'S GOOD WHEN YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE.
HEY, TRUE.
HEY, RYAN.
WHAT'S GOING ON, LULU? LISTEN, YOU KNOW HOW MIKEY J GOT INTO THE GIFTED PROGRAM AT SCHOOL? YEAH.
WELL, SO DID I.
WAIT, YOU'RE NOT THINKING OF DITCHING US JUST TO BE WITH SOME GUY, ARE YOU? WHAT IF KELSEY GOT IN? THAT'D BE DIFFERENT, WE'RE SOUL MATES.
DID SOMEBODY SAY SOUL MATES? YOU WEREN'T TALKING ABOUT ME AND MAX, WERE YOU? OR IS IT MAX AND I? IT'S NEITHER.
AND DIDN'T ANYONE EVER TEACH YOU TO KNOCK? WATCH YOUR TONGUE, YOUNG LADY.
WHEN MAX AND I GET BACK TOGETHER, I'LL BE YOUR BOSS TOO.
SHE AND MR.
MADIGAN ARE GETTING TOGETHER? HOW LONG WAS I IN THAT BOX? NO OFFENSE, MS.
GIRARD, BUT YOU SOUND CRAZIER THAN MY UNCLE REGGIE THE DAY HE CRAWLED OUT OF THE DESERT.
MR.
MADIGAN'S NOT LEAVING HIS WIFE.
OH, I'M SORRY, BUT YES HE IS.
AND TRUST ME, WHEN I'M RUNNING MAD STYLE, THERE'LL BE SOME CHANGES.
I'M JUST GONNA SAY IT, I DON'T LIKE HER.
JUST IGNORE HER.
HEY, CHECK IT OUT, TRUE.
I BET YOU COULD USE THIS THING LIKE A ZIP LINE.
WHAT'S A ZIP LINE? TOO FAST.
I CAN FIX THAT.
MS.
GIRARD, ARE YOU OKAY? OF COURSE I'M OKAY.
IS SOMEBODY TURNING THE LIGHTS ON AND OFF? THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT MY UNCLE REGGIE SAID RIGHT BEFORE HE PASSED OUT.
NO.
NO.
[SCREAMING.]
AMANDA, DIDN'T I JUST SEE YOU IN THE HALLWAY? OH NO, JUST MY TWIN SISTER.
I'VE BEEN AVOIDING HER FOR TWO DAYS.
SHE'S A MONSTER.
IS SHE THE ONE WHO FILLED MY OFFICE WITH TULIPS? I'LL HAVE THEM REMOVED AT ONCE.
PEOPLE, AS YOU ALL MAY OR MAY NOT KNOW, SOPHIE GIRARD GOT HIT BY THE TIPPY-TOP OF A PAPER MACHE EIFFEL TOWER.
IT LANDED RIGHT ON HER COCONUT.
KOPELMAN, YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY? GO STAND IN THE CORNER.
IS SHE GOING TO BE OKAY? SHE IS, BUT SHE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO COMPLETE HER WINDOW, SO WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN HERS AS WELL.
THAT'S GREAT.
I KNOW.
IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF WORK.
I KNOW.
NO, I MEAN IN A BAD WAY.
WE'VE NEVER BEEN A COMPANY THAT SHIED AWAY FROM A CHALLENGE.
RIGHT.
THEY'RE GOING TO BE DEMOLISHING THE WALL BETWEEN THE TWO DISPLAY WINDOWS.
TRUE, I HOPE YOU CAN SUPERVISE.
SURE.
IT'S NOT LIKE I HAVE A GIANT REPORT TO DO IN THE MORNING.
[LAUGHTER.]
EYES FORWARD.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS? WHY IS SORRY IN QUOTES? BECAUSE I'M NOT REALLY.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING, TRUE? I'M OUTLINING MY ORAL REPORT FOR TOMORROW.
DON'T YOU USUALLY JUST WING IT? YEAH, BUT I'M SO DISTRACTED I DON'T WANNA FORGET ANYTHING.
HI, KIDS.
TRUE, YOU WANTED TO SEE ME ABOUT SOMETHING? YEAH.
COULD YOU GUYS GIVE US A MINUTE? YOU HEARD HER, GET OUT.
I THINK SHE MEANT BOTH OF US.
YEAH.
WHAT IS IT, TRUE? MR.
MADIGAN, I ALMOST DON'T KNOW HOW TO SAY THIS BUT IF I DON'T ACE MY ORAL REPORT TOMORROW YES? I HAVE TO QUIT MAD STYLE.
DISEASE HAD WEAKENED THE ARMY, SO FREDERICK THE GREAT, RULER OF PRUSSIA FROM 1740 TO 1746, HAD BUTTONS SEWN ONTO THE SLEEVES OF HIS SOLDIERS' UNIFORMS SO THEY WOULDN'T RUB THEIR NOSES ON THEM.
THIS WAS NOT JUST A TURNING POINT IN THE WAR, IT WAS THE START OF A FASHION TREND THAT CONTINUES TO THIS VERY DAY.
THANK YOU.
NOW, I DIDN'T KNOW ANY OF THAT.
OF COURSE, YOU DIDN'T.
[BELL RINGING.]
CLASS DISMISSED.
NEIL, THAT JACKET WAS VERY DISTRACTING DURING TRUE'S REPORT.
IT IS MINE NOW.
HEY, TRUE.
IF YOU NEED ME, I'LL BE IN KELSEY'S LOCKER.
TRUE, HANG BACK A MOMENT, WILL YOU? WAS MY REPORT OKAY? TRUE, YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN ENTHUSIASTIC IN YOUR REPORTS, BUT GENERALLY YOU RAMBLE ON TILL I ASK YOU TO WRAP IT UP.
I KNOW.
IT'S A LITTLE INSULTING ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU START TAPPING YOUR WATCH AND FAKE YAWNING.
OH, I ASSURE YOU, THAT'S NOT FAKE YAWNING.
BUT I COULDN'T HELP NOTICE HOW ORGANIZED YOU'VE BECOME.
YOUR REPORT WAS CONCISE AND INFORMATIVE.
I'M VERY IMPRESSED.
SO YOU'RE GIVING ME AN A-PLUS? I'LL BE POSTING RESULTS AT THE END OF THE DAY.
THANKS, MS.
PARK.
HEY, KELSEY, ISN'T THAT YOUR LOCKER? IT USED TO BE.
I TRADED IT.
WITH WHO? MOOSE.
MOOSE? HEY, MOOSE.
YEAH? IS THAT YOUR LOCKER NOW? YEAH, WHY? IS SOMEONE MESSING WITH IT? BECAUSE THAT'S THE ONE THING THAT SETS ME OFF.
I'M USUALLY A VERY REASONABLE GUY, BUT YOU DO NOT MESS WITH MY LOCKER.
RIGHT.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY LOCKER? UHH-- THAT'S THE FUNNIEST THING EVER.
I NEVER LIKED YOU, BUT NOW I DO.
FROM NOW ON, ANYONE MESSES WITH RYAN, THEY GOT TO ANSWER TO ME.
THAT'S MY BOY RIGHT HERE.
SOPHIE.
MAX, YOU CAME.
I JUST WANTED TO SAY HOW AWFUL WE ALL FEEL ABOUT YOUR ACCIDENT.
RYAN MADE YOU A CARD.
WHY IS SORRY IN QUOTES? WELL, BECAUSE I SUSPECT HE ISN'T REALLY.
HOW ARE YOU DOING? OH, I'M BETTER NOW THAT YOU CAME TO TAKE ME AWAY.
OH, MAX, LET'S GO SOME PLACE MAGICAL AND THEN WE'LL COME BACK AND RESTRUCTURE YOUR COMPANY.
I CAN'T DO THAT, SOPHIE.
WHY, BECAUSE YOU'RE MARRIED TO SOME IDIOT LIBRARIAN? COME ON, MAX, I KNOW YOU.
I DON'T THINK YOU DO, SOPHIE.
IN FACT, I DON'T THINK YOU EVER DID.
AND MAYBE I NEVER KNEW YOU.
HOLD ME CLOSE AND HOLD ME FAST THE MAGIC SPELL YOU CAST THIS IS LA VIE EN ROSE WHEN YOU KISS ME HEAVEN SIGHS AND THOUGH I CLOSE MY EYES I SEE LA VIE EN ROSE WHEN YOU PRESS ME TO YOUR HEART YOU'RE A MUCH MEANER PERSON THAN I REMEMBERED.
I KNOW.
I WAS VOTED PARIS' MEANEST PERSON, 2004.
IT'S FRANCE'S HIGHEST HONOR.
SOPHIE, YOU SAID YOU NEVER FORGET YOUR FIRST LOVE.
WELL, DORIS IS MY FIRST LOVE.
WHEN I WALK OUT THIS DOOR, IT WILL BE THE LAST TIME YOU EVER SEE ME.
THAT WAS A CLOSET.
BUT THIS TIME, WHEN I WALK OUT THAT DOOR, IT WILL BE THE LAST TIME YOU EVER SEE ME.
I SEEM TO HAVE MISPLACED MY KEYS.
AH, THERE THEY ARE.
THIS TIME-- GET OUT.
OKAY.
I'M NOT ONE OF THOSE PRINCIPALS THAT GETS ALL UP IN YOUR GRILL.
HOWEVER, IN THE FUTURE, IF YOU GUYS ARE GONNA SWITCH LOCKERS, YOU'VE GOTTA RUN IT BY MY OFFICE.
YES, PRINCIPAL RUCKMAN.
OKAY.
YOU'RE GOOD KIDS.
HOW'S IT GOING, KELSEY? PRETTY GOOD, RYAN.
I MEAN CARL.
HEY, YOU KNOW MY NAME.
NO, I CALLED YOU CARL.
WAIT A MINUTE.
YOU LIKE ME.
NO, I DON'T.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW YOUR NAME.
YEAH, YOU DO.
WANNA KNOW HOW I KNOW? 'CAUSE YOU LIKE ME.
KELSEY LIKES ME.
I KNOW.
TRUE TOLD ME.
WHAT? BUT WHY DIDN'T SHE TELL ME? I DON'T KNOW.
OH, THERE'S MIKEY J.
SEE YOU LATER.
MIKEY J, I'M COMING WITH YOU.
WHERE? I GOT INTO THE GIFTED PROGRAM, TOO, FOR MATH.
THAT'S AWESOME.
I KNOW.
NOW WE CAN BE TOGETHER.
WELL, WE DON'T ACTUALLY GO ANYWHERE.
WE JUST HAVE MORE HOMEWORK.
MS.
PARK POSTED THE GRADES FOR THE ORAL REPORTS YET? I THINK SO.
TRUE JACKSON, "A" MINUS.
"A" MINUS.
A D? YES.
MOOSE, YOU'RE NOT EVEN IN THIS CLASS.
OSCAR, IS MR.
MADIGAN IN? HE WENT TO THE UNVEILING OF THE LIAM'S DEPARTMENT STORE WINDOW.
AREN'T YOU GONNA BE THERE? I'LL HEAD DOWN IN A BIT.
OSCAR, CAN YOU HAVE SOMEONE BRING EMPTY BOXES TO MY OFFICE? WHY? I DON'T REALLY WANNA TALK ABOUT IT.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? SORRY, I WAS JUST HIDING.
FROM WHO? MY SISTER, MISS PERFECT.
WHATEVER PROBLEM YOU'RE HAVING, JUST TALK TO HER ABOUT IT.
YOU CAN'T ALWAYS ASSUME PEOPLE KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING.
JUST LIKE MY MOM ALWAYS SAYS, "STOP GRUNTING, LARRY.
"IF YOU WANT SOME MORE COBBLER, JUST SAY SO.
" IF YOU WANT MORE COBBLER, JUST SAY SO.
MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT.
HELLO, LISA MARIE.
OH, THERE YOU ARE.
I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU FOR TWO DAYS.
YOU LIKE THE WOOD CARVINGS I HUNG IN YOUR OFFICE? I MADE THEM MYSELF.
YEAH, THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL.
AMANDA, WHAT'S WRONG? LOOK, EVER SINCE WE WERE KIDS, YOU ALWAYS HAD TO BE BETTER THAN ME.
ANY ACCOMPLISHMENT I HAD YOU RUINED BY TOPPING IT.
IT'S EXHAUSTING.
I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T KNOW.
GOSH, I'VE ALWAYS LOOKED UP TO YOU, AMANDA.
YOU'VE GOT YOUR BIG CITY JOB AND ALL YOUR FANCY FRIENDS.
YOU'RE NOT JUST MY SISTER, YOU'RE MY HERO.
CAN YOU PLEASE FORGIVE ME? OF COURSE.
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU THOUGHT I'D BE MEAN ON PURPOSE.
WELL, I SUPPOSE I SHOULD HAVE JUST TALKED TO YOU ABOUT IT SOONER.
BUT WHY DID YOU COME HERE ANYWAY? YOU KNOW THAT BOY YOU DATED SENIOR YEAR? JACK? HOW CAN I EVER FORGET HIM? HE WAS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE.
WHAT ABOUT HIM? WE'RE GETTING MARRIED.
AND I WANT YOU TO BE MY MAID OF HONOR.
AND I DESIGNED YOUR DRESS MYSELF.
WELL, BYE.
I'M TELLING MOM.
FIVE, FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE.
WOW.
IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
ISN'T IT AMAZING? MY, UH, MY DAUGHTER MADE THIS.
YOU MUST BE VERY PROUD OF HER.
TRUE, I HAVE A SURPRISE FOR YOU.
IT'S NOT ANOTHER FAREWELL CAKE, IS IT? I MEAN, IT'S REAL NICE AND ALL, BUT I'M A LITTLE FULL.
RIGHT THIS WAY.
HEY.
I'M ALMOST DONE PACKING, DAD.
WELL, YOU CAN START UNPACKING.
NOW YOU'RE JUST PLAYING WITH ME.
TRUE, COME HERE, BABY.
COME ON.
PULL UP A BOX.
WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE, I WANTED TO BE AN ASTRONAUT, YEAH.
BUT MY DAD, HE JUST LAUGHED AT ME, ON ACCOUNT OF MY CLAUSTROPHOBIA.
HE WAS ALL, "IT'S A CAPSULE, LARRY.
"YOU AIN'T GONNA LIKE IT.
NOW EAT YOUR BEANS.
" GRANDPA SOUNDS LIKE KIND OF A HOTHEAD.
YEAH, YEAH, HE WAS.
BUT THE POINT IS, HE NEVER BELIEVED IN MY DREAMS.
AND I BELIEVE IN YOURS.
COME ON, I'LL HELP YOU UNPACK.
I WONDER IF MR.
MADIGAN WILL BE MAD IF I ASKED FOR MY JOB BACK.
YOU SAID WHAT NOW? I'M ASKING IF I CAN HAVE MY JOB BACK, MR.
MADIGAN.
YOU CAN THINK ABOUT IT IF YOU WANT.
YIPPEE.
SHE'S STAYING, SHE'S STAYING.
KOPELMAN.
WELCOME BACK.
MAN, I'M SO HAPPY WE DON'T HAVE TO LEAVE, LULU.
I REALLY LIKE IT HERE.
YEAH.
AND IT'S NICE KNOWING THAT AT THE END OF EVERY SCHOOL DAY THERE'S A BOX OF POPCORN WAITING FOR US.
THIS HAS BEEN THE BEST DAY EVER.
YOU KNOW THE GUY ON THE TRACK TEAM WHO DOESN'T LIKE ME? YEAH.
YEAH.
I WAS COMING OUT OF THE GYM AND HE PRETENDED TO PUNCH ME SO I'D FLINCH AND SHRIEK LIKE A BABY.
DID YOU? SORTA.
SO WHAT'S THE GOOD PART? WELL, THE GOOD PART IS MOOSE APPEARED OUT OF NOWHERE AND THREATENED TO TWIST THE GUY'S HEAD AROUND BACKWARDS IF HE TRIED IT AGAIN.
THIS REALLY IS THE BEST DAY EVER.
TRUE GOT HER JOB BACK, YOU GOT A BODYGUARD, AND I GOT 10 TIMES MORE HOMEWORK THAN I USED TO.
I HAVE TO READ THIS FOR TOMORROW.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES IT REALLY PERFECT? ALL THE AWESOME CLOTHES.
AMANDA? AMANDA'S SISTER? IT'S ME.
WHY ARE YOU WEARING THAT DRESS? THAT IS A DRESS, RIGHT? MY SISTER DESIGNED IT.
I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING, THAT DOESN'T LOOK ITCHY AT ALL.
WELL, YOU'RE WRONG.
I'LL CATCH YOU GUYS LATER.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING? I WANNA GO LOOK AT MY WINDOW AGAIN.
YOU GUYS WANNA SEE ME FOLD MYSELF IN THAT POPCORN MACHINE? SURE.
YEAH.
I REALLY DID IT.
YEAH, WE REALLY DID.
I GUESS WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO THINK UP SOME NEW DREAMS NOW.
@;@;@;@;@;@;@;@;@;@;@;@;@;@;@;@; I GOT SOME IDEAS.
