You all know how it goes by now, so let's move on.
"And now, for the final team of the penultimate round! Everybody give a round of applause to, Athletic Fashion!"
The lights turned off, then switched to the stage, where Lynn and Leni waited for their signal. Once the lights turned on, Lynn waved hello... While Leni looked at her.
"Hello, everybody! Thanks for having us here!"
Leni, however, just looked at Lynn with a confused look, which soon got on the athlete's nerves. "Leni, this is the part where you wave at everybody and thank them for letting us try in the first place!"
"Lori, why do you look so much like Lynn now?" Leni inquired.
"What?!" the audience laughed out loud. "You honestly think you're still doing comedy with Lori?"
"Are you practicing your roleplaying skills?"
"No, that's not the case! Look, Lori was taken out of the competition 'cause the judges thought you were funnier than her. You're now doing comedy with me, your sister, Lynn!"
"Hmm... I don't recall having a sister named Lynn."
"I'm the one that's all about sports and stuff!"
"Oh right, I remember now! However, her name's not Lynn."
"Wha? Fair enough, tell me, what do you think is her name?"
"Linn."
"That's my name! Lynn!"
"No it's not, It's pronounced with an "I" instead of an "Y"
"It's pronounced the other way around!"
"Nnyl?"
"That's how it's pronounced backwards!"
"Then how am I supposed to pronounce it?"
"Lynn!"
"With an "I" or an "Y?"
"Y!"
"I?"
"Yeah!"
"Alright then, Linn!"
"You're still pronouncing it wrong!" the audience cheered and applauded as Lynn folded her arms. "You know what? Nevermind, let's just move on before we start wasting too much time."
"Got it, Linn!"
"Ugh, anyway, I've heard that your driving tests have been going much well lately."
"Yeah! I'm actually making quite a lot of progress!"
"Good to know!"
"I only ran over two nuns this week!"
"That's not much of an improvement!" Lynn exclaimed as the audience laughed. "What were the nuns even doing there, anyway?"
"I have no idea, but it probably has to do with the place I crashed the car at..."
Suddenly, Lynn got an idea. "Leni, how did this place look like?"
"Well, it was, like, this school-like place, with some Indian people, that had some sort of weird large line of odd symbols-"
"Wait, are you telling me you meant nun as in the letter from the abjad?"
"Is that some sort of fashion?"
"No, it's a writing system."
"Why would you call "abjad" a system that writes for you?"
"You're taking it too literally-Wait, if this is what I think it is, are you telling me you crashed through an alphabet?!"
"No, you're, like, telling me that I'm telling you that I did just that!"
"That doesn't change the fact you did something absolutely impossible!"
"You mean, like, how Lori is trying to stop Clyde from crushing on her?"
"No, that's definitely possible, it's just that Lori's so desperate from attention that she doesn't want to do the easy thing and find another guy to crush on her."
"What about Bobby?"
"He and Ronnie Anne moved out a long time ago."
"Really? Then why is Ronnie Anne here?"
"They came back for a vacation-And we're getting really dang sidetracked here! Let's get back on topic! So, your driving skills are improving, but not as quickly as they should, right?"
"I don't know, you tell me."
The audience laughed out loud, and even clapped, as Lynn rubbed her forehead. "Yes, they're indeed improving, but you're still quite bad at driving."
"It's not, and while I don't mind Lori driving us everywhere, but not only does she always have a catch, but I kinda feel sorry for her. She has to get tired of being asked to drive us everywhere, right?"
"I don't know, you tell me."
"Leni, if you had any of us ask you to drive us anywhere, wouldn't you get tired of that eventually?"
"I don't know, you tell me."
"Are you seriously going to answer that no matter what I ask you?!"
"I dunno, you tell me."
Lynn sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose while the audience both laughed and clapped.
"So, what were we talking about?" Leni tilted her head to the left.
"Your driving test!" Lynn snapped her fingers. "We were talking about your driving test!"
"Aw right, do you think I should ask our sisters to teach me how to do that?" Leni clasped her hands. "After all, they seem to be pretty good at driving everybody nuts, so-"
"I think you're a bit confused on what sort of driving you're supposed to be doing. But hey, we could always use a little simulation. You'll be the driver student, and I'll be teacher."
"Oh, can I also be the queen of mars?"
"Where did that come from?!"
"Okay, how about the queen of England?"
"Why do you want to be queen?!"
"'Cause then I could get my chaffeur to do my driving test for me."
"That's not how it works! Look, let's just do the skit already, okay?"
"Okay!"
Lynn's skit...
Lynn, dressed like a driving instructor, sat on the passenger's seat as she waited for Leni, dressed as a driving student, sat right next to her.
"Okay, Leni, are you ready to start your driving test?" Lynn asked as she took out a clipboard and a pen.
Leni chirped, "Of course!"
"Good, I'm glad to see you're excited for this. Now, put the key in the slot and turn-"
"Can I ask something?"
"I-It's a test, you're given questions, and you're supposed to answer, not the other way around."
"I know, but this is quick: How am I supposed to reach the key slot from the passenger seats?"
"W-Wait, are you telling me we're both on the passenger seat?"
"Yup."
"Wait, if I'm on the passenger seat, and so are you, then who's on the driver's seat?!"
"My personal chaffeur!"
"What?!"
Then the scene zoomed out to reveal a chaffeur sitting on the driver's seat.
"Oh, Chaffeur, we're ready to start the test!" Leni exclaimed.
And the stage immediately turned back to normal as Lynn growled, "No we're not!"
"What's wrong?"
"You can't have your chaffeur do the exam for you, that's cheating!"
"It is?"
"Yeah! You have to do it yourself!"
"Myself?"
"Yeah! Now let's do it again!"
So the skit restarted, and went the same as before, only with Leni on the driver's seat, with Lynn next to her. Just before Lynn could say anything, however, Leni interrupted:
"Hey, do you mind if I take someone to somewhere else?"
"What are you talking about?" Lynn asked.
Then it zoomed out to reveal a chaffeur on the passenger seat. "I must bring the chaffeur to his work."
"What the heck?!"
One stage turning back to normal and audience laughter later, Lynn flailed her arms up and down as she scolded Leni, "You can't sabotage your driving test by taking the chaffeur to his job or whatever! Would you please do this right?!"
"Is that necessary?"
"Leni, how do you expect to pass your driving test, if you can't even get past the setup."
"Good point, one more shot?"
"Yeah, one more shot, then we call it a day."
The skit repeated a third time, and Leni and Lynn were once again on the same seats. However, instead of blowing up in anger, Lynn took a deep breath and asked:
"Leni?"
"Yeah?"
"Are we in the passengers' seat?"
"Yep."
"Is the chaffeur driving us again?"
"Nope."
"Phew, thank goodness."
Another zoom out happened, and it revealed, as Leni promptly chirped:
"We're being driven by the queen of England!"
The audience burst out laughing, and the stage once again turned back to normal as Lynn chuckled to herself and slowly clapped. Which Leni soon joined in, but with a much faster speed than the jock.
"Leni, I think it would be better if we focused on something else," the athlete sighed. "I don't want to sound negative or anything, but I don't think learning how to drive should be your first priority."
Leni tilted her head. "Then what do you suggest we do?"
"I dunno, you tell me."
"Huh, that sounds oddly familiar."
Lynn threw a look at the audience, "Of course it does."
"I know! Let's do my skit now!"
"You have a skit planned?"
"Yeah! I mean, it was obvious when I realized we were paired up: I'll be the teacher of martial arts, teaching you self defense."
"This can only go well."
"I know, right?! So let's do it!"
Leni's skit...
Leni, dressed as a martial arts teacher, threw punches and kicks at the air, when Lynn, dressed as a martial arts student, entered the "dojo".
"Master Leni, I'm ready for today's lesson!"
Leni, however, just continued punching the air.
"Master Leni?"
Same result.
"Master Leni!"
Suddenly, a Leni lookalike-probably Carol-with a moustache appeared and said, "Yes, were you calling for me?"
"What the heck?!" Lynn glanced at the punching and moustached Leni in utter confusion, while the audience laughed. "What's the meaning of this?! Who's the real Leni?!"
"It's me," the moustached Leni answered before taking off her moustache. "The other Leni's just a clone."
The punching Leni exploded out of existence, allowing Lynn to calm down enough before asking, "So, what are we going to learn today, master Leni?"
"Ah yes, I'm going to teach you a super duper secret technique that only the most prideful of people can learn," Leni said as she walked until she was right next to Lynn. "For this technique, you need a clear mind, devoid of all intrusive thoughts."
"No wonder you could learn it, then."
"First, you form a pair of fists with your hands."
"Okay then."
"And then you get into a battle stance!"
"I like where this is going!"
"And then!"
"Yeah?"
"And then!"
"Yeah?!"
"And then!"
"Tell me already, the suspense is killing me!"
After a couple seconds, Leni scratched her head and asked, "And then what?"
"How should I know?!" Lynn snapped as the audience burst up laughing. "You're supposed to be the teacher!"
And the stage turned back to normal the instant Leni answered:
"Good work, Lynn!"
"What do you mean good work? We didn't do anything!"
"We finished the skit."
"Wait, really? That was it?"
"Pretty much, and since we're practically out of time, I guess we should stop now."
"Yeah, I guess we should stop now, shouldn't we?"
Leni smirked and said, "I dunno, you tell me."
Prompting Lynn to snap, "Damn it, I fell for such an easy trick!"
And then the duo turned to the audience and chirped "Thanks for watching everyone!" as the audience applauded and the lights turned off.
.
.
.
The lights turned back on to show Lynn and Leni standing next to Catherine, the reporter, while the audience cheered and applauded.
"I'm not gonna lie, that was actually pretty funny," Catherine said. "You two must be happy with your performance."
"Well, I can't take all the credit," Lynn stated before turning to Leni. "My sister Leni over here did most of the work, she was just a riot."
"That's a good thing, right?" Leni asked.
"In this case, it is," Catherine said before turning to the judges. "Now, judges, if you'd please!"
"JUDGING!"
Same deal as before, with the judges going as such:
Tabby: 90
Polly: 90
Haiku: 80
Giggles: 100
Carol: Cookie jar
"A total of 360 points and a cookie jar for Olympic Fashion! Sending them straight to the first place, and unfortunately, sending Tough Love to the third place, and their ensuing elimination."
"Aw, man, we're out already?" Ronnie mildly complained. "I honestly thought we'd reach the end!"
"Hey, we tried, and that's what matters," Lincoln reassured, giving Ronnie a pat in the back.
"That's the end of the penultimate round, everybody!" Catherine cheerfully stated. "Now, for the final round, we'll have both teams perform their acts consecutively. That means that the team in first place, Olympic Fashion, will do their act first, and then the second team, School O' Rock, will do their act afterwards. Until then, stay tuned for "The Royal Woods Comedy Grand Prix!" See ya!"
