A/N: This particular sketch, which I'm planning on turning into a series, in which Sonny gives outrageous advice on how to cover up very obvious things, comes from Banana Split, which I don't own. Incidentally, I don't own Sonny with a Chance too, because if I did, they would have already been guest stars in Bubble Gang and Banana Split. Anyway, here's Sonny It Up, hosted by none other than Sonny Munroe!
Sonny: Welcome to my new sketch-show, Sonny It Up! Today, I'll be talking about ways on how to hide the fact that you've been dancing in the rain. (Turns to the left) It's the start of the rainy season here in L.A., and I'm sure that there are a lot of people out there enjoying the rain: the old, the young, and the young at heart. Now, if you're one of those people who like to dance in the rain but won't admit it to your peers, here are five surefire tips to Sonny their minds up. (Sonny jumps off her chair, and then the scene changes into the street outside Condor Studios)
Sonny: Number five! (Brings a flash card with five in front of her face and then throws it away with a contemptuous look) Wear a sweatsuit and bring a towel so you can pretend that you jogged on that day.
(Grady and Tawni enter the scene)
Tawni: Hey, Grady!
Grady: Hey, Tawni.
Tawni: Did you just dance in the rain? You look wet!
Grady: No! Actually, I jogged! Take a look at my towel! You can literally squeeze my sweat out of it! (Proceeds to squeeze the towel)
Sonny: Do you get my point? (Jumps away and then returns to the same street, empty once again) Number four! (Brings a flash card with four in front of her face and then throws it away with a contemptuous look) Pretend to have wooed your love with a song, only to have yourself soaked in ice-cold water.
(Grady and Chad enter the scene)
Chad: Hey, Grady.
Grady: Hey, Chad.
Chad: You look wet today. Have you been dancing in the rain?
Grady: Oh, no! It's just that I fell in love with this beautiful Filipina, and I read on the Internet that I should do a harana on her so she would accept my love. (A/N: Harana means that a boy lover would go to the girl's house with his friends and sing her love songs with his guitar)
Chad: Okay. Why did you get wet?
Grady: She threw a bucket of cold water at me! I don't know if that means she loves me too or she hates me!
Sonny: See what I mean? (Jumps away and then returns to the street, empty once again) Number three! (Brings up a number three flash card to her face and then throws it away with a contemptuous look) Bring a hamper full of clothes with you and say that you just did your laundry.
(Grady and Zora enter the scene)
Zora: Hey, Grady!
Grady: Hey, Zora.
Zora: Have you been dancing in the rain? You look wet!
Grady: No! I just washed my clothes, including the ones I'm wearing. I can still feel the world spinning in the dryer, going round and round and round… (Circles his head as Zora looks at the camera)
Sonny: Wow! It's a miracle that you didn't throw up inside the dryer, or else you would have to wash your clothes again! (Jumps away and then returns to the empty street) Number two! (Brings up a number two flash card to her face and then throws it away with a contemptuous look) Pretend to be a protester and bring a picket sign for added authenticity.
(Grady and Nico enter the scene)
Nico: Hey, Grady!
Grady: Hey, Nico.
Nico: Why are you all wet, man? Have you been dancing around in the rain?
Grady: No! I was just with those protesters against the US troop surge to South Sudan. We got attacked by water cannons, fire hoses, and dang tear gas! You can still see the tears flowing on my cheeks, right? I feel like I'm cutting a thousand onions at the same time!
Sonny: Maybe you should have just taken your girlfriend with you and make love in the middle of the riots. (Jumps away and then returns to the empty street) Number one! (Brings up a number one flash card to her face and then throws it away with a contemptuous look) And last but not the least, act as if you've just visited a dear old friend, a very chatty old friend. (Waits as Grady enters the scene) Hey, Grady!
Grady: Hey, Sonny.
Sonny: What happened to you? You look all wet! Have you been dancing in the rain?
Grady: No way! What am I, a child? I just paid a visit to old Sammy Sprinkler. Let me tell you, it was raining cats and dogs where we were.
Sonny: What did I tell you? Simple, yet effective. (Jumps away, and then sits back down on her chair in the studio) I sincerely hope that the tips I've offered you are of great help in hiding the fact that you still like to dance in the rain. If it doesn't Sonny up your friends or relatives' minds, it would at least keep them thinking for a while, giving you a quiet life for the time being. Anyway, I'm Sonny Munroe, and this is Sonny It Up! (A cardboard with the Sonny It Up logo covers Sonny's face, and then she screams and pushes it away, smiling at the camera) (A/N: Think of the Shake It Up logo, but change Shake into Sonny)
Sonny: See you next time!
(Sing to the tune of the Shake It Up chorus)
Their suspicions/Make me nervous!
My friends' minds/Sonny it up! Sonny it up!
Give me some tips/I see it on your lips!
Please, Sonny Munroe/ Sonny them up! Sonny them up!
(Interlude)
Sonny It Up!
A/N: This is not a true parody; I just wish that it was. As a recent Weird Al convert, I still marvel at his ability to make a parody with a coherent story. But I hope that you enjoy it, especially when you think of both Selena and Weird Al singing it together. I know I do. Read and review! - GR
