Day 1: Welcome

A mysterious girl is partially seen putting up would could possibly be a secret security camera.

"Alright. Good to go." She said as she turned off her flashlight and walked away out of the frame.

The next morning the girl was back, standing by a table in the school cafeteria, talking to the camera without showing her face.

"So, here we are at Auradon Prep. School of legends. School of secrets is more like it. Sure, you've heard of our parents, but you don't know us. Let me introduce you to a few people you might meet here."

The camera proceeds to show different cliques within the school sitting at the same table at different times.

"Wonder what we'll learn. And who am I? I'm the one who's gonna show you what they're really like when they don't think anyone's watching Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching."

Day 2: Attention

"Attention Auradon Knights," A student's voice said over the school intercom as a group of kids sat at the table doing different things. "Here are your daily announcements. The pep rally for our tourney match against the Sherwood Falcons will be held after class in the West hall gym. A reminder: birds and rodents are prohibited from choir practice. While many woodland creatures make excellent singing companions at home, here at school, it's a health code issue. Auditions for the school musical: What's That Spell? get underway next Thursday. Thanks to all who participated in last week's charity carriage wash. Thanks to your efforts, the jungle of Neverland will remain well. Prince Ben has called a special assembly tomorrow for an important announcement." Many of the students began to gasp in shock.

Attendance is mandatory by order of his father, King Beast. Have an enchanting day, and remember: Goodness doesn't get any better than at Auradon Prep."

"Mandatory assembly?" The girl from before asked someone who sat next to her. "What's that about? And why do I get the feeling something bad's about to happen?" The bell rang, and students filed out of the cafeteria to et to class.

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 3: Decree

"Dude, it's starting." A boy said to another as he left foe the mandatory assembly. Feedback could be heard as Ben approached the microphone in the gym.

"As you know, years ago my father, King Beast, banished all the villains from the land of Auradon to the Isle of the Lost." The gathered students all cheered. "Now, I've come to realize that the descendants of these villains who, up until now, lived in the shadow of their parent's wrongdoing, deserve a chance to determine a path of their own."

One student began to cheer while others began murmuring amongst one another about what the future king could possibly mean by what he was saying.

"Which is why, as my first royal decree, I've decided to invite five students from the Isle of the Lost to Auradon Prep this year." The feedback sounded again as Ben ended his speech. "Now, I'm sure you have questions…"

The students all began shouting, trying to figure out why he would do this.

"Villain kids at Auradon?" The girl's voice came over. "This changes everything."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 4: Talk

"What if they can breathe fire?" A girl at the table asked as others texted their friends about the news about the villain kids. "Or turn people into toads?"

"Don't be silly." Another girl said. "Everyone knows magic is outlawed."

"Hello! That's exactly what they are. Outlaws." The first girl said.

"Maybe they're just like us." A boy said. "Their parents are the bad ones."

"Did you know one of them made my uncle walk the plank?" Another boy asked. "Sorry."

"He's new here." The girl said as another approached the table with a piece of paper.

"Petition to keep the villain kids out of Auradon Prep?" She asked.

"Wait," The first girl said. "Can you petition a royal decree?"

"Don't know." The girl with the paper said, handing the paper to one of the girls at the table. "Got a 'D' in Kingdom Civics. But I do know I don't want any villain kids in Auradon."

"Smack talking in secret? That's harsh. Not like "prick your finger on a spindle and cursed to sleep for a thousand years" harsh, but still. Auradon Prep is about to get real interesting. And just wait until our parents find out."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 5: Trip

A boy joins another at the table as one has what looks like a laptop.

"We gotta keep this quiet. You sure you're ready?" He asked.

"Hey, I was crowned ready." The other boy said.

"The Isle of the Lost is a long ways from here. You know what that means."

"Road trip!" Both boys said together.

"We'll drive over to Charmington. My great-uncle Smee used to keep his boat tethered off the coast." The second boy said, grabbing the computer.

"Dude! You're related to Smee?" The first boy asked, shocked.

"Shh. Keep it down, will you? I don't want everyone to know." The second boy said, swiping along the screen. "We'll row across here."

"Oh, one problem." One boys pointed out. "The whole island is sealed off by a barrier."

"We don't have to get through it. Just close enough to use this." The other boy said, taking a camera out of his bag. 'My girlfriend thinks they have fangs and horns. I just want a picture that proves that she has nothing to worry about."

"All right." The first boy said. "You drive?"

"No way, bro. I drove to that party in Sherwood."

"One way to settle this," The boys turned to one another, playing the Auradon verision of rock, paper, scissors.

"Stone, scroll sword." The boy on the right laughed when he won.

"Ha. Scroll beats stone."

"Fine." The boy on the left complained. "But you're buying gas."

"All right. I'm rich."

"The more you tell a person not to look, the more they'll want to. I should know. I'm hiding in plain sight." The girl said.

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 6: Phone

A boy places a box on the table as his phone rings and he answers it.

"Hey, Uncle Grumpy." The boy greets. "I got the-oh, you have to press the button. No, the other-Oh, hi Uncle Doc." He said as another uncle picked up. "Yeah, he hung up on me. I got the package, but what's with the—no, please don't put Uncle Sneezy's -ugh, gross." He continued to pull other things out of the box.

"Wow, it's very generous of you, but how am I supposed to make change with-what? Yeah, I guess this will do the trick." He said as he pulled out a hammer. "Yeah, they're bringing some villain kids to Auradon. Don't worry. I'm sure they locked up all the magic mirrors. No, I love the care package." He said as he brought over a trash can.

"It's really neat. Seriously. Love to Dad."

"Nothing to be ashamed of, Doug. Sometimes, it's just easier to tell people what they want to hear."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching

Day 7: Study

Doug held a box of what appears to be candy as he approached a girl who sat at the table, doing some homework.

"Uh, I'm raising money for band regionals." He said. "Want to buy some homemade rock candy?"

"I'm good, thanks." The girl answered.

"Hi." A girl said, approaching the table. "I'm selling roses for art club. We have white and um, white painted red…." The girl picked up a rose, accidentally splattering some red paint on the other girl's homework.

"Um, no. I'm trying to study." She said, making the girl leave. Suddenly a bag of green stuff was dropped on the table in front of her. "What is this?"

"Algae." A girl dressed in blue said.

"Seriously?"

"The worst, right? Our club president grew up under the sea." The blue-dressed girl said, walking away with the bag.

"I'm taking up queations—" A boy said, sitting down before the girl finally snapped.

"You guys are killing me! I do not want to fail this test and I am not interested in what-"

"Questions to help buld the villain kids their own school and keep them out of Auradon Prep." The boy said.

"Oh."

"Pro tip. To make a big sale, you have to know your audience. And a secret collection to keep the kids from the Isle away might not be such a hard sell after all."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 8: Quiz

"Quiz time!" The girl from behind the camera, Lonnie, said as she sat across from her friend, Jane.

"Oh, um, okay."

"Alright, let's see." Lonnie said, pulling out her phone, showing a quiz from the internet. "Where in Auradon should you live? Hit the slopes, Hit the beach, or Hit the hay?"

"Uh, beach, I guess." Jane answered.

"Are you a Heartbreaker, Trouble maker, or a Rule breaker?"

"Can I be all three?' Jane asked.

"Sure. Do what your parents say, or do it your way?"

"My way."

"Magic is Totally off limits, Kinda lame, or Super sweet just don't get caught?"

"Uh, If I had to be honest, C the super sweet one. What'd I get?" Jane asked as the results loaded up on Lonnie's phone. "Agrabah? Mount Olympus? Oh, how about a nice little village in Camelot."

"Um, your ideal home is…" Lonnie said when the result popped up on the screen. "The Isle of the Lost."

"Give me that thing," Jane said, snatching the phone away from her. "Like a villain kid?! You're not gonna, like, tell my mom, are you?"

"Uh, you're not gonna, like, hurt my phone, are you?" Lonnie asked.

"Today's dirty little secret: don't ask the questions if you're not ready for the answers."

Okay, Auradon. Be…you know. Someone's watching.

Day 9: Play

"A forest of thorns shall be his tomb. Born through the skies on a fog of…..oh yeah. Line." A girl said as she and another went over lines for a play.

"It's 'doom' 'Fog of doom'"

"Right. I can't believe I'm your understudy."

"Bad news," A boy said, tossing down a stack of flyers. "Principal says the play isn't pc enough for the VKs, so we have to 86 this ASAP."

"Come again?" One of the girls said.

"They don't want us to offend the villain kids." The boy said.

"But we've been rehearsing for weeks. They're ruining everything and they're not even here yet."

"I don't make the rules." The boy said.

"So what else can we do?" One girl asked. "12 Angry Dalmatians?"

"Cruella De Vil on trial?"

"The Book of Sultan?"

"Jafar in tight?"

"Seven Brides For Seven Dwarves?"

"Evil Queen."

"I hate to say this, but we have to play it safe." One of the two girls said. "The old stand by."

"Oh, no." The other girl said.

"My Fair Lady and the Tramp." The boy said as one girl hit her head on the table.

"The show must go on." Lonnie's voice said from behind the camera. "Just not always in the way you expected."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 10: Team

Two boys sit at the table in jerseys, looking over a list of names of people to recruit for the tourney team.

"Come on, man. Ben said we only need one more freshman for the tourney team. Don't you like anyone?" A boy with dirty blonde hair asked the boy with the notebook.

"No. No." He said, scratching off two names. "Wait. Who's this? Bash? As in bash our opponents?"

"Dude, that's "Bash" as in "Bashful". Junior? The kid barely got eough courage to step onto the field."

"Pass on Bash."

"Do you think they're gonna make us put villain kids on the team?" The dirty blonde boy asked. "I wonder if Gaston has a son. That guy was ripped."

"No villain kids." The boy with the notebook said. "I have to look out for my team."

"Ben's team."

"Whatever. Come on. If I don't pick up my homework from the cheerleading squad, I'll have to do it myself." The boys leave the table, one of them leaving their phone behind.

"Make all the plans you want, Chad. When these villain kids show up, the rules are gonna change."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 11: Suggestions

"It's another beautiful morning at Auradon Prep. Time for our daily announcements. Last call for senior photos. The photographer has asked for no more pictures in shining armor. All that glare is giving him headaches. This morning's Auradon history exam has been postponed. The professor is attending to urgent family business in Charmington. Croquet Club today is canceled until the team catches all the escaped flamingos. If you see one, please notify a faculty member and do not approach on your own." The announcer said as a girl brought out a sheet of paper decorated with Chad's name.

"Chad Charming has lost his cellphone. He's offering a substantail reward in the amount of…..how much? I know some students have expressed some concerns about Prince Ben's announcement. I want to assure you that we're taking all of your feedback into account. You can continue to leave your thoughts in the suggestion box outside the main….the box is full? What? Then get a bigger box."

"Hey, I've got a suggestion," Lonnie said. "Actually listen to wha people are saying. You'd be surprised what you can learn."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 12: Found

"Hey guys. Look what I found." Lonnie said, placing something on the table. "Well, borrowed. Don't worry. I'm gonna put it back. Who would leave their dinglehopper lying around? Oh, a girl from Neverland lost this."

Lonnie found the piece of paper from the girl with Chad's name all over it. "Chad Charming? Might as well be wishing upon a star. What's this?" Lonnie pulls out Chad's lost phone, which had three unread messages. She opens the messages app to see the contacts of several different girls. "Ca-ching. Guess I better go collect that re- on second thought, let's see if these rumors are true."

Lonnie scrolled through the messages, seeing several more contacts from girls. "Half the princesses in school are in here. Say what you will about those villain kids, at least their behavior's out in the open. You really ought to set a passcode, Chad."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 13: Sub-Text

"Ugh, my guy canceled again." A girl grumbled as she looked at her phone. "He has to take his grandmother's dog to the vet."

"Oh, how sweet." Another girl said.

"I guess. I'm just so tired of waiting. My mom spent half her life waiting in a tower and nobody's got time for that." Rapunzel's daughter said.

"I know what you mean. My Aunt Ariel says it's good to take things slow, but what does she know? She traded her voice for legs." One of Ariel's nieces said when she got a text message.

"Who's that?" Rapunzel's daughter asked. "Your mystery man?"

"Yeah, he's pretty and he wants to hang out Friday."

"Oh, lucky girl." Rapunzel's daughter, Anxelin, said. "Come on, just tell me one thing about him."

"Well, he's on the tourney team."

"Mine too." Anxelin said. "We hang out right after practice."

"Us too. He usually comes by and we watch a movie."

"Yeah, we love to do that. We get cozy, make popcorn just the way he likes it. With caramel drizzle."

"What?" Ariel's niece asked as both girls got a text message simultaneously.

"Oh, how sweet. My Chad." The girls said simultaneously. "Your Chad? Chad Charming? Give me that." The girls took each other's phones and were shocked to see that they were texting the same guy.

"I guess the secret's out. Trust me. They'll thank me in the end. What's my secret?"

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 14: Fight

"Dude, King Beast back when he was a beast would have torn Hercules apart." A boy said as he sat down at the table with a lunch tray.

"He's half god." Another boy said.

"A beast is all beast, man." The first boy said.

"One way to settle it, man." The boys played Stone, Scroll, Sword, with the first boy winning.

"Best two out of three." The second boy said. They do it again, now tying in score. They do it one more time, but the first boy's food ended up being spilled. Both boys got up and left the table.

"How messy will things get when the villain kids arrive?"

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 15: Pranks

"I've come to realize: you can only have so much fun watching from the sidelines. Sometimes, you have to get your hands dirty. Or in this case, sticky. Just watch." Lonnie's voice said.

"Attention Auradon Knights. Here are your daily announcements. Queen Belle asks us to remind you that library books are due one week after checkout. Trust me, she knows." The announcer said as Anxelin tries to pick up her calculator, only to find it glued down onto the table.

"What the spell?" Anxelin asked, confused. She tries to pick up her other things, but they were glued down as well. She answers a phone call, only to have to hang up quickly, getting her face stuck in the process. A group of students crowd around her, one armed with a pair of scissors to cut her hair free.

"A lost item: one shoe left on the front steps last steps. Delicate glass. Oh, ha-ha. Really mature you guys. Remember, goodness doesn't get any better than at Auradon Prep."

"I kind of feel bad." Lonnie said in the voice-over. "I didn't mean for this to happen. Then again, I hear short hair is in this fall. Here's the thing: if you believe what people are saying, we could be in for a whole lot worse once the villain kids arrive."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 16: Hearts

Two boys are playing with cards at the table. "Ha. Six beats king."

"What?" the second boy asked.

"Wonderland rules. My six was hearts."

"Oh, right."

"May date just texted me." Doug said, putting his phoen down. "I told her I had everything covered, but I don't have a clue."

"Keep it simple." The first boy said. "A little picnic."

"No, no. Take her to the Enchanted Lake. It's like enchanted."

"There's always horseback riding. Ah, Queen of Hearts. I take all your cards. And what you have in your pockets." The second boy empties his pockets.

"King of Hearts. Nothing beats that."

"Horseback riding. Picnic. Wait, I could do all three." Doug said before he got a message asking to just be friends.

"What's the secret to romance? Put your cards on the table and see what happens. I can't wait to see how this is gonna play out."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 17: Broken

"Can I sign your cast?" Lonnie asked another, who nodded and she signs.

"So, how'd it happen?" Jane asked.

"Uh, I went on a date with this guy last night. He took me on a picnic in Eden."

"A picnic at night?" Lonnie asked.

"Yeah, with rose petals everywhere and all these candles."

"Sounds romantic." Jane said.

"Until one fell over and set the blanket on fire." The girl with the cast said.

"Hot date, huh?" Lonnie joked.

"Why are we friends?" The girl asked as a joke.

"So, what happened next?"

"Well, he had this horseback riding plan. When he tried to put his arm around me, he….."

"Swept you off your feet?" Lonnie tried to guess.

"Off the horse, actually." The girl corrected before Doug showed up.

"Hey….so, sorry again about last night." He apologized, taking out a pen and writing 'SECOND DATE?' on the cast. "If you need anything: class notes, dry cleaning…"

"Give me your pen." The girl said, and Doug handed it over. She proceeded to scribble out the words.

"Guessing that's a 'no' then." Doug said as the girl handed back his pen.

"Not everyone gets a happy ending, I guess."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 18: Tea Time

"You know, I think the hair actually suits you." A girl said to Anxellin as they drank tea.

"I don't even want to talk about it." She disagreed. A fourth girl sits down at the table with them, scoffing in annoyance.

"What's wrong, Audrey?" One of them asks.

"Ben." She said, starting to complain. "He cancelled Friday. Has to work on his decrees or whatever. It's like I'm not important."

"Well, he is going to be king soon." One girl pointed out.

"That's not the point." Anxellin said. "Ben's spending more time on these villain kids than with her."

"You know, if one of these villain kids is also a princess, does that mean she gets to join us for tea?" When a girl asked that, Audrey poured so much tea that she overfilled her cup, spilling some.

"Maybe you should join the welcoming committee, Audrey."

"And why would I want to do that?" Audrey asked.

"Well, you'd be able to spend more time with Ben." Anxellin said.

"Hmmm." Audrey thought about it. "And even more time if I take the lead."

"It's no secret while quick thinking might prevent a big mess, not all messes can be avoided."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 19: Debate

Three students sat at the table getting ready to debate about whether the villain kids should or shouldn't be allowed in Auradon.

"Three round. Topic: Should the descendants of villains be allowed in Auradon?" A boy said before ringing a bell.

"These descendants should absolutely not be allowed in Auradon." The girl on the negative side spoke. "Let us not forget, we have decades of peace and prosperity by keeping them separated on their own island. Now is not the time nor the place."

"Well, there's never a good-I mean, couldn't it be keeping them out may not entirely their…" Jane tried to say before being interrupted.

"Did you know that two out of every three residents of Auradon have been victims of villainous plots: false imprisonment, animal transformations, malignant thorn bushes. The list goes on."

"Okay, well, yes. The past was not good. In fact, it was bad, but it was the past, which means it's old. That's sort of….."

"Furthermore, Auradon Prep was founded on the principle that goodness doesn't get any better. Better, not badder. They had an entire island to themselves. Do we really need to give them keys to our kingdom?"

"Well, by those lofty standards, someone as close-minded as you should not be allowed here in Auradon either." Jane said, tired of being interrupted.

"Wow. Way to pull it out there, Fairy Goddaughter."

"Well, you can debate all you want, some things can't be avoided."

Be good, Auradon. Someone's watching.

Day 20: Committee

Doug sat at a table with a welcome banner for the VKs, when Audrey came up to him in her cheerleader uniform.

"Oh, hi Audrey. I thought Prince Ben was going to-"

"Ben has enough to worry about with the new kids arriving so soon. I told him I'd help out with the welcoming committee."

"That's nice of you." Doug said. "Okay, well—"

"I've already made a list of everything we need and—take this down." Audrey said as Doug grabbed a clipboard.

"Sure."

"We need a limousine to bring them here. You know, something classy, but not extravagant. So, budget classy. I don't know what they enjoy for snacks. Someone suggested frogs and newts. I'm not one to judge, but ew."

"Uh, no amphibians." Doug wrote down.

"I know Ben wants their arrival to be a big deal, so let's make sure the marching band is there. And, of course I'm gonna need to show them the crowns, the dorms, get their class schedules worked out, and make sure they don't burn the place down as soon as they arrive. You're good with that? That's everything. Let me know when it's done."

"Uh…." Diug stuttered as he tried to keep writing down her demands.

"Now I just need to decide what I should be wearing when Ben asks me to the coronation." Audrey said, walking away.

"Ready or not, here they come."

Day 21: Comments

"You know, Auradon. It's been fun watching you, but….wow. A lot more of you than I expected. Ah, what's the matter, Auradon? Don't you like a little mystery?" Lonnie narrated as she reads through the comments, finding one insulting her hands.

"Ugh, troll. Delete." She keeps scrolling to see other comments saying what she has done. "Uh, oh. Not Good. Maybe it's best you haven't figured out who I am yet. I gotta go. I have to, uh…"

Day 22: Headlines

"Auradon scroll, issue number 22. What's our headline?" A girl asked other kids at the table who all sat with laptops.

""Chad Charming Challenges Cheating Chad."" A boy said.

"Catchy. Makes my head hurt. Page five, what do you have?"

"It's a sports piece on how our team's looking this season. Nice. Tourney over a new leaf."

"Fine. Page two?"

"Have you guy heard about that girl who's been posting secret camera videos?" One girl asked, showing everyone her screen.

"Yeah." They all said.

"Find out where she is, wo she is by Tuesday." The head reporter told everyone. "What's next?"

"An inside look at the Isle of the Lost." A boy showed what he had.

"I don't know about that headline. We need something more ominous."

""Corrupt Kids Crash Campus"".

"Yeah, pass."

"I got it. ""Evil Descends On Auradon.""

"I like it." The head reporter said. "And they're not even here yet."

"I got chills." A girl said.

"Guys," One of the boys spoke up. "What if she's watching us right now?"

"Maybe we should take this outside." They all stood up and left the area.

"I set out to reveal other people's secrets, so why am I the one who suddenly feels exposed?"

Be good, Auradon. Everyone's watching.

Day 23: Secrets

"I've been doing a lot of thinking. When I put this camera up 23 days ago, I had no idea what I'd find. I thought I was watching you, but I saw some stuff about myself too. Things I'm not proud of. I thought I was above it all, but I'm in it. Just like you. Auradon isn't perfect. None of us are. This isn't about being a hero or a villain, good or bad. It's a choice you make every day with everything you do. Everyone has something they're not proud of. Tomorrow's the day everything changes. Nothing will be the same once these villain kids arrive. Everyone has secrets. And, hey, who am I to judge? Oh, you're probably thinking it's time for me to reveal my secret. Well…."

Be good, Auradon.
