A/N: Sorry about the name change! May is an alternate name for Daisy Oak from the manga and sometimes I type the wrong one. I try to catch myself, but in case I don't, May = Daisy.


ACT II, SCENE 1

EXT. PALLET TOWN

The party is over. The guests pour out of PROF. OAK'S laboratory talking and laughing, still happy and full of energy. They get in cars or mount Pokemon and take off. ASH, DAISY, and PROFESSORS OAK and IVY are the last to leave. They linger in the doorway.

ASH: That was some party, Professor. I can't thank you enough.

PROF. OAK: Don't mention it. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. And please, call me Sam, or Grandpa Oak.

PROF. IVY: Suggestive. What should I call you, darling?

PROF. OAK: Anything you want.

DAISY and ASH share disgusted looks.

ASH: Looks like you guys have some work to do, cleaning up the lab. We'll just leave ya to it, then.

DAISY: Yeah. Smell ya later, Gramps!

PROF. OAK: Alright, you crazy kids. Waving. Have a good night.

ASH: We will!

Exit OAK and IVY.

ASH: So, are we going back to my place or yours?

DAISY: Hold on, Mr. Slick. I want to check on Gary first.

ASH: Groaning. Do you have to?

DAISY: Hey, he may be a jerk, but he's still my baby brother. He's been drinking a lot lately, and he walked out on your party. I just wanna make sure he's okay.

ASH: Fair enough. Actually, I haven't seen Pikachu in a while. He's probably curled up in my bed, asleep, but it doesn't hurt to check. I'll meet you over there in five.
