SCENE 1- DANIELLE IS IN THE BATHROOM, BRUSHING HER TEETH
DANIELLE THINKING
I can't believe that Brian Krakow asked out my sister! I mean, we're meant for each other, right? And people who are meant for each other don't ask other people out, right?
ANGELA
Danielle! I need to take a shower!
DANIELLE THINKING
She probably wants to look her best for Brian Krakow. God, I hate her.
DANIELLE
Well, you'll just have to wait. I'm taking mine. I want to look my best for Brian Krakow.
ANGELA
Shut up, Danielle!
DANIELLE
Oooooh, Brian, I love you. Now I know who you love, Angela. BRIIIIIIANNNNNN KRAAAAAAAAACKOW!
Next door, BRIAN peeks out of the window with a confused expression on his face. ANGELA sees him through a window and ducks, blushing.
DANIELLE finishes taking her shower and comes out. ANGELA pushes past her and gets in the shower.
DANIELLE THINKING
I just got the most brilliant idea. I'm going to become JUST LIKE ANGELA! Like I did at Halloween!
DANIELLE goes into Angela's room and takes her plaid shirt and her pants out. She finds the red wig that she used at Halloween and puts it on.
DANIELLE THINKING
Now I can go to Sharon's for some advice! I mean, she knows Angela better than anyone. Or maybe Rayanne. Hmmm...I'll just go to Sharon's first.
SCENE 2- SHARON'S HOUSE
SHARON
Hi, Angela!
DANIELLE
It's not Angela- it's Danielle.
SHARON
Why are you dressed like Angela?
SHARON opens the door and DANIELLE goes inside.
DANIELLE
I'm just getting ready for April Fool's Day.
SHARON
But that's not for two months!
DANIELLE
I know, but the more prepared I am the better, right?
SHARON
I suppose. So are you going to fool people into thinking you're Angela?
DANIELLE
You're right. Any pro tips?
SHARON
No, not really- want a cookie?
DANIELLE
Sure! Great!
CUT TO BRIAN
The doorbell rings and BRIAN walks to the door. ANGELA is standing there.
ANGELA
You didn't..um, hear what my little sister was shouting a while ago, did you?
BRIAN
Um. Well, I did.
ANGELA
I can't believe it. She embarrassed me so much.
BRIAN
It's fine, don't worry about it.
DANIELLE walks over.
DANIELLE
Hi, Brian!
BRIAN
Looking between Angela and Danielle
Are there two redheads in the Chase family now?
ANGELA
Not that I know of.
DANIELLE
So,I found this great movie. Wanna watch it?
ANGELA
I guess.
DANIELLE
I wasn't asking you. I was asking Brian.
BRIAN
Um, Danielle, me and Angela were kind of...
ANGELA
Talking. We were talking.
DANIELLE THINKING
Now they're finishing each other's sentences. This is not a good sign.
CUT TO DANIELLE'S ROOM
DANIELLE
So, Plan A didn't work. I need a Plan B. Hold on- what IS plan B? Oh! Brian's in the chess club, right? I could show up to his competition!
DANIELLE walks up to ANGELA'S school and looks at the notice board.
NEXT CHESS CLUB COMPETITION: WEDNESDAY. SHOW UP TO THE TOP SET MATH CLASSROOM AT 2:15 TO PARTICIPATE OR WATCH.
DANIELLE THINKING
This is just what I need!
SCENE 3: CHESS CLUB MATCH
DANIELLE
Hi, Brian!
BRIAN
Danielle! Why are you here?
DANIELLE
Flicking her hair.
I came to watch.
BRIAN
Oh, uh, okay?
The door bangs open and ANGELA walks in.
ANGELA
Hi, Brian.
DANIELLE
Why are you here?
ANGELA
I came to watch Brian at his chess match, just like you! It's a pity you forgot to tell me, but it's good that I saw in your planner Brian's chess match today! with a heart.
DANIELLE
Angela!
ANGELA
What? I'm allowed to attend school functions. I mean, this is actually my school, remember?
DANIELLE
I guess.
BRIAN and a BOY play chess with each other. BRIAN wins.
ANGELA
Congratulations, Brian!
ANGELA hugs BRIAN, who looks confused. DANIELLE runs up and hugs BRIAN from the other side, and they all loose their balance. ANGELA lands on top of BRIAN, who lands on top of DANIELLE.
DANIELLE'S VOICE
Plan B: failed.
SCENE 4: ANGELA AND DANIELLE'S HOUSE
DANIELLE
Mom, Dad, I'm going to the corner store!
PATTY
Okay, Danielle. Be careful crossing the streets!
DANIELLE THINKING
My parents are always telling me to be careful crossing the streets. Like, of course I'm going to be careful! Isn't it obvious?
DANIELLE leaves her house and starts walking up to the store.
DANIELLE THINKING
I had the most brilliant plan- for real, this time. Angela was about to re-dye her hair red, because it came out, and I was going to fill up her red hair dye bottle with the wackiest color I could find!
DANIELLE browses through the market and finds a bottle of neon green hair dye. The camera zooms in on it. It says PERMANENT.
DANIELLE
Perfect.
CUT TO THE CHASE HOUSEHOLD
ANGELA
I need someone to help me with my hair!
DANIELLE
I'll help!
ANGELA
Uh, thanks.
DANIELLE takes the bottle and starts working the dye into the hair. When she's finished, she smirks, and ANGELA sees her smirk in the mirror.
ANGELA
What are you smirking for?
DANIELLE
Why don't you look, dear sister?
ANGELA stands up, turns around, and looks in the mirror.
ANGELA
AAAAAAAHHHHH!
SCENE 5: HALLWAY AT LIBERY HIGH. JORDAN IS WALKING AROUND, ASKING PEOPLE IF THEY'VE SEEN TINO.
ANGELA walks through the hallway with a paper bag over her head. There are holes cut for her eyes. Because it's hard to see with the bag on, she bumps into BRIAN.
BRIAN
Hey! Maybe you better take that off.
ANGELA
Okay, but I'm hiding first.
ANGELA and BRIAN walk into an empty classroom. ANGELA takes the bag off and BRAIN gasps.
BRIAN
What happened?
ANGELA
Bitterly
Danielle happened.
BRIAN
Oh.
ANGELA
I look so ugly!
BRIAN
I think you look beautiful with any color of hair.
ANGELA
Really?
BRIAN
Really.
ANGELA and BRIAN kiss. The door swings open. MR. KITIMPSKI and the rest of the class, including SHARON, RICKIE, DELIA, JORDAN and RAYANNE, gasp
SHARON
I can't believe it.
DELIA
I guess they've just been dating all this time.
RICKIE
Muttering
I wish I could be normal.
RAYANNE
Wow, Angela, I guess you're really a love 'em and leave 'em type.
JORDAN
Angela? Brain? Have you guys seen Tino?
MR. KITIMPSKI
Quiet down, class. We need to get to work.
FADE OUT
