Here's yet another spinoff episode, but this time it has a huge contribution to the story. I'm introducing a new character in this episode, who is The Newmans' counterpart of Reggie. How will this go over, with Claude Newman in pursuit? Let's find out.
In the garage, Corey and the gang were...Wait, another spinoff? With who? Isn't that the same thing? Here we go, take two. In the garage of another neighborhood, a band very similar to Grojband was practicing, known as The Newmans, consisting of Carrie Beff, Kim and Konnie Kagami, and Larry Nepp. "If we practice more, maybe we'll kick Garbage-band's garbage-butts!" Carrie told Kim, Konnie, and Larry. "We always play better than them, and we always lose!" Kim complained. "And big sister Mina betrayed us to work for Grojband!" Carrie yelled. "I hate to rain on your anger parade...but...er...You have someone who wants to be an intern coming to ask to be hired in 10 seconds!" Larry exclaimed to Carrie. Suddenly, a girl with brown hair in a ponytail, green eyes, a gray striped shirt and a black skirt (Just think Reggie as a Newman) walked into their garage. "Hi! I'm Regina Queensland, and I came for the internship!" Regina exclaimed. "Oh yeah, the internship! You're hired." Carrie told her. "Just like that?" Regina asked. "We're in desperate need." Carrie reminded her. "Things have been hard since Grojband's been upping their game." Kim piped up. "They got like what, a trailer, two interns, and great lyrics." Larry counted. "Grojband? What's a Grojband?" Regina asked. "They're this band that looks exactly like us, but it's four dudes instead of four girls." Carrie told her. "But I'm not a-" Larry tried to tell Carrie, when he was interrupted by Konnie. "They have an intern who looks exactly like you, but he's a guy." Konnie told Regina. "So, where are we holding a gig?" Regina asked. "We're about to go to Peaceville International Airport to rock out to Peaceville's visitors!" Carrie exclaimed. "I don't think our instruments are going to get through the TSA checkpoint." Larry told Carrie.
Security Checkpoints are weird!
The Newmans and their new intern, Regina made it to the airport. "We're here! Isn't this EXCITING?" Regina asked. "Well she certainly is a character." Carrie joked. The five were on their way, walking around the airmall when they saw five familiar faces. Corey, Kin, Kon, Laney, Reggie, and Mina were conversing at the clothing shop Reggie used to buy their disguises in "Four Corners of the Earth." "Hey! It's grossband!" Carrie taunted at Corey. "Well you four are...uh...potato chips!" Corey said, using his trademark nonsensical insults. "Wait, who's that?" Reggie asked, pointing to Regina. "I dunno." Corey shrugged. "I'm your worst enemy!" Regina exclaimed as she winked to Carrie and walked over to Reggie. "I'm Regina Queensland, and I'm the intern of The Newmans, the best band in the world!" Regina yelled at Reggie. "Excuse me? Worst enemy?" Reggie asked. He pushed Regina aside and walked to The Newmans. "You guys have it all wrong. My worst enemy is Razorblades, not this...goof." Reggie complained. Regina got very angry because of this. "We're gonna rock the Peaceville Airport for visitors before you even have a chance!" Corey remarked. "Oh yeah? What do you have that's better than us?" Carrie asked. Mina wheeled in an odd looking machine. "It's a laser projector for a WICKED light show!" Kin exclaimed. "Wait, won't that distract pilots who are driving planes?" Laney asked. "Relax Lanes, we got this in the bag!" Corey told Laney. "Well, we're off to set up!" Corey exclaimed. "Well now what do we do?" Larry asked Carrie.
Laser shows are pretty rad!
The now five members of The Newmans were walking through the airport terminals. Trina, Mina's former best friend, was waiting in a terminal for Nick Mallory to return to Peaceville after his charity work in Zambia. "I can't wait for Nick to come back! It was so selfish of him to build homes and churches in Loserland for the lame villagers." Trina whined in her conceit. (No offense to Zambians, Trina is supposed to be whiny and calls things losers.) "Grojband is still outdoing us!" Carrie told them. "Any ideas?" She asked. "A flying band!" Konnie exclaimed. "That's a great idea!" Carrie exclaimed. "I have a better idea." A voice called out. Claude Newman walked down the airport hall with Bingo Splingo, and four assistants wearing orange tuxedoes. "Who are YOU?" Carrie asked. "I...am Claude Newman." Claude told Carrie. "We're The Newmans, the most awesome band ev- Wait, did you say Claude NEWMAN?" Carrie asked. "You ARE The Newmans! Corey Riffin told me about you guys, and I just happened to drop by!" Claude enthused. "Wait, did you say COREY?" Carrie asked, angrily. "Corey Riffin...betrayed me. You Newmans, on the other hand, are kind, and your music is wonderful!" Claude told The Newmans. "But you've never heard us play!" Larry exclaimed. "I want to manage your band, if you do, you will have great, lavish concerts, and my servants will work for you!" Claude explained. "But that means I'm fired!" Regina exclaimed. "Oh, do not worry, my dear lass! You will lead my servants!" Claude spoke to Regina. "Wait, what? We have to work for a 14-year-old?" Bingo asked. "All these great bounties will be YOURS, if you sign this contract!" Claude announced as he handed Carrie the contract that Corey almost signed at the circus. Bingo handed her a pen, and she barely read through it. This was a dire mistake for her, and The Newmans. Carrie handed the contract back to Claude. "When do we start doing better gigs?" Carrie asked. "Oh, we start right now!" Claude told her. "Hooray!" Kim and Konnie exclaimed. In 5 minutes, Regina and Claude's servants built a great stage with the Newmans logo on it, right outside a terminal where Nick's arrival to Peaceville was. "Are you sure we should do this? This guy looks suspicious." Larry asked Carrie. "It's nothing, girl!" Carrie told Larry, which got on his nerves. On the stage, there were huge speakers, TWO laser show makers, a bunch of small fireworks launchers, and a GOLDEN disco ball. "That looks...AWESOME." Regina said in awe. "It's all in the contract!" Claude told them. Meanwhile, at a news stand, Corey and the rest of his crew were watching them. "Man, their stage looks a lot better than ours." Reggie said. "It's not like them to have all this expensive stuff." Mina remarked. Laney caught a glimpse of Claude Newman walking through the terminals. "Hey! It's that guy from the circus!" Laney exclaimed. "Oh yeah, that guy! Wait, who?" Kon asked in confusion. "He's probably why the Newmans have all this cool stuff!" Laney said. "We can get lyrics better than theirs could EVER be, if we get Trina to miss her flight!" Corey exclaimed.
Corey's got a crazy plan!
Carrie, Larry, Regina, Kim, and Konnie were watching planes get set up for takeoff. "You know, this is really relaxing." Larry sighed. Claude Newman walked over to the four musicians. "Do you have lyrics for your song yet?" Claude asked. "Yeah, here they are!" Regina exclaimed as she passed a packet of papers to Claude. Claude read through the lyrics, to see if it was good enough. Claude whispered to one of his servants, and the servant pulled out a lighter to burn the packet. "What was that for!" Kim and Konnie yelled. "Those aren't as thought-invoking as Corey's lyrics." Claude spoke. "If you're so obsessed with Grojband, why did you sign us up?" Carrie asked. "You people actually care about becoming great, even when you might have to rely on me." Claude told the twins. Claude walked over to Carrie. "Now, you five must come up with a BETTER song, one that will get you on the map." Claude dictated. "No pressure, you have all the time in the world, which means...30 minutes." Claude yelled. The Newmans, and Regina ran off.
Claude is really angry today!
The Newmans were running through the airport, trying to get inspiration for their song, when Regina bumped straight into Trina. "Excuse ME? Did you just, like, bump into me and junk?" Trina hissed. "Sorry! Sorry!" Regina exclaimed. "Wait, you look like, totes familiar." Trina remarked. The Newmans caught up to Regina. "Hey, aren't you Corey's brother?" Carrie asked. "I wish I wasn't, UGH." Trina whined. "Hey! You weirdos hate Corey and his stupid friends, I hate Corey and his stupid friends...I hate to say this, but I guess we have to...team up." Trina cringed in saying that phrase, after two of her slaves betrayed her. "I don't trust her." Larry whispered to Kim. The six started walking off again, until they were 50 feet away from Corey, Kin, Kon, Laney, Reggie, and Mina. "Grossband!" Carrie yelled out. "Poo-mans!" Corey retorted. "MINA!" Trina hissed. Mina did not respond. Kim and Konnie argued with Kin and Kon about whether deep-fried Kool-Aid was an abomination or a treasure, which was quite off-topic. "It's six-against-six." Corey stated. "In an airport." Reggie noted. "Wait! Corey! We're being dragged into...another movie homage!" Reggie cried. The Newmans and Trina started walking to Grojband. Corey and the others walked to the Newmans. "This isn't gonna end well." Laney groaned. "They're not stopping!" Reggie exclaimed. "Neither are we." Corey replied. The walking turned out into a full out charge, looking like carnage would ensue. Instead of the normal argument or roast battle, things at the Peaceville International Airport turned into an all-out brawl. Corey and Carrie got into a fight, until Kon tackled them both. "Friendly fire!" Corey cried. Larry already ran away to hide in the bathroom, fearing Laney would beat him up. Reggie and Regina awkwardly started pushing each other. "So...uh...where are you from?" Regina asked. "This is a fight, you know. You're no Razorblades yourself." Reggie replied. "This is too hard. You wanna go to the coffee shop?" Regina asked. "Eh, sure." Reggie replied. "I got your back, Gina!" Kim yelled as she fired a crazy rocket gadget that sent Reggie flying, until he crashed out of a window and onto the hard airport running. "Ow..." Reggie moaned. Trina got a hold of an airport shuttle cart and was about to drive it into Laney and Kin, when Mine ran up, pushed Trina out of the cart, and drove the cart into a wall. "Thanks, Mina!" Kin exclaimed. "My name isn't Mina..." Mina groaned. Trina got back up, and saw Nick Mallory talking to a girl by the coffee shop. "Oh no! I forgot to meet Nick when he arrived to kiss him! I'm too late! Because of...THE NEWMANS!" Trina screamed. "Diary time!" Corey whispered to Laney. Small pieces of garbage start to levitate, and Trina's pen lit up. "ENOUGH!" Claude Newman screamed. The trash fell back down and the pen was snuffed. Larry walked back out of the bathroom. "This is a mess." Bingo noted. "You idiots were too busy fighting Grojband, so the Oboe brothers, a lesser known band, took your spot at the stage!" Claude shouted. "We were too busy fighting, to notice that no one won. Violence isn't always the answer, and no one ends up winning." Corey said, in his episode-ending speech. "That's...beautiful!" Claude applauded. "You're coming with me. Servants, apprehend Riffin." Claude ordered. Two armored servants with guns grabbed Corey by the arms. "Aw cool, the private first-class treatment!" Corey exclaimed. "Where are you taking him?" Laney yelled. She ran at one of the guards to free Corey. Reggie got up from out of the runway to yell "Laney, no!" One of the guards threw a tear gas grenade, and it hit Laney, Kin, Kon, Reggie, and Mina, making them cough. "Board, Newmans." Bingo stated in a cold tone. Carrie, Kim, Konnie, Larry, and Regina boarded onto a plane, along with Claude and the guards who were kidnapping Corey. The plane took off with Corey being held prisoner inside. "What have we done..." Laney faintly gasped.
Things aren't looking very good!
Corey was asleep on the plane after he accidentally drank knockout juice. "Where are we going?" Carrie asked. "My dear Carrie, we are going to my castle on Wunge Island. It is only a five minute flight from Peaceville." Claude told her. Konnie was eating some fine caviar, while Kim, Regina, and Larry watched a plasma TV made of REAL plasma. The plane landed on a runway, onto a small where Claude's huge castle rested. "Good Newmans, welcome...to Wunge Castle." Claude announced. The screen faded to black, instead of a garage door slam...
Corey has been kidnapped. Again. What will happen to him? The next episode is another Straw Hats episode, but it is the farthest from source material. "Sea You Later" is the original name, and the plot is where Corey gets kidnapped by a sea band who wants his lyrics. In this version, the episode's name will be changed to "Finding Corey."
