[Loki knocks on the bathroom door.]

Loki:"Come on, Loni, hurry up. Other people live in this house too, you know."

[Loni appears on the stairs.]

Loni:"But Loki, Mom said no running on the stairs."

Loki:"Oh. Sorry, Leni. I didn't real... Wait. If you're not hogging the bathroom, who is?"

[The door opens and reveals Luke, with his robe and a face mask.]

Luke:"It's me, dudes."

Loki:"Luke? Are you... primping?"

Luke:"I'm just getting ready for the Royal Woods Astonishing Quest. Sam's my partner[Starts blushing]s-so I want to look good."

Loki:"Sam? Shut up."

Loni:"Tell us everything."

[Loki and Loni enter the bathroom.]

Loki:"This is your first date, isn't it? You must be so nervous."

Luke:"Nah, just stoked. I know Sam and I are gonna be perfect for each other."

Loki and Loni[Smiling]"Yeah!"

[Lynn appears]

Lynn:"Excuse me, gentlemen. Mind wrapping this up? I got some calluses to scrape off."

[Lynn wiggles his right toes and Loki and Loni look in disgust.]

Loki:"It's all yours, Lynn. We gotta head to the Quest anyway."

Loni:"Sorry you're banned this year."

Loki:"Though, to be fair, you were a tiny bit, um..."[Clears throat]"aggressive last time."

[Flashback to the previous year's Astonishing Quest.]

Lynn:"Whoo!"[Tackling people out of his way.]"Move it, slowpokes!"[Gloating his victory in front of other participants.]"Kiss my first place heinie, losers! Whoo!"

[End flashback]

Lynn:"I don't know what you're talking about. But anyway, I moved on. Now, whose file can I borrow?"

[Luke, Loki, and Loni squirm backwards in disgust.]

[At the quest, everyone is getting together with their partner, Luke looks around and sees Sam sitting at the fountain.]

Luke:"Hey, Sam."

Sam:"Hi, Luke."

[Sam gets up and offers a hug, but Luke offers a high five.]

Luke[In union]"Up high."

Sam[In union]"Bring it in."

Luke and Sam[Realizing]"Oops,"[Luke offers a hug and Sam offers a high five.]"Let's try that..."

[They realize that they're doing it again, and get a little frustrated, but they laugh it off.]

Luke:"I'm not sure what we're supposed to do here."

Sam[Offers a handshake]"Mm, put him there, partner."

[They shake hands and laugh.]

Mayor Davis:"Hello, everyone. As mayor of Royal Woods, it is my pleasure to welcome all of you to this year's ASTONISHING QUEST!"

[Everyone cheers. Linka and Claudia High Five, Scoots and Helen snap and point at each other, Albert and Myrtle high-five, and Loki, Loni, Rita, and Lynn Sr. glare at each other. All the while, Luke and Sam are excited.]

Mayor Davis[Plays a gong sound effect on his keyboard.]"Got this from my kids for Christmas."[Plays a laser sound effect.]"I like that one. So, here's how the quest works[Luke and Sam are given a letter.]teams will get clues that lead them to locations where they have to complete challenges. The team that finishes the last challenge first will win, the key to the city!"[Pans to the city's key. Mayor Davis covers it with a blanket.]"Nah, just kidding. You get this trophy."[Picks up a tiny trophy with the words "YOU DID IT!" engraved into the center.]"It's cute. Any questions?"

Scoots:"Uh, yeah. You want to save time and hand the trophy to Helen and me now?"

Helen[She and Scoots high five.]"Ooh, sick burn."

[They laugh triumphantly.]

Mayor Davis:"Good one, Scoots."[Plays a rimshot]"Okay, teams. You have the first clue. On your marks, get set...[Accidentally plays a fart sound effect.]Whoops, that's not it."[Plays the right one, which is an air horn.]"Go!"

Sam[Pulls out the first clue]"Your first challenge will be easy to master, if you're handy with a blaster."

Luke:"Dude, it's 'Lazer Maze'."

Scoots:"Thanks for the tip, doll."

[She and Helen laugh and ride away with their tires squealing.]

[Later, Sam and Luke enter Lazer Maze, where it's pitch black.]

Lazer Maze Employee:"Welcome to Lazer Quest, my dudes. You need five hundred points to get the next clue."[Turns the lights in the room on.]"You can grab your gear inside, go forth, questers."

[Luke runs in with Sam behind him. In the arena, Luke - in his gear - scopes around and ducks in cover. Sam follows after him, unsure of what to do.]

Luke:"Okay, Levi and Daria are on the left, Scoots and Helen are trying to flank us on the right. Let's move."[Fires his lasers, zapping Levi and Daria.]

Levi:"Oh, dang it! I told you not to wear white, Daria."

Luke:"Yes! A hundred points, we only need four hundred more."

Scoots:"Ambush!"

[She and Helen come out of nowhere, blasting confidently, Luke takes cover.]

Luke:"Sam! Cover me!"

[Luke fires back at Scoots and Helen. Sam tries to work his blaster, but he fiddles around with it before dropping it and hitting Luke with a laser.]

Scoots:"Haha! thanks for the assist, butterfingers."

[Sam and Luke eventually get their five hundred points and leave the arena.]

Lazer Maze Employee:"Well done sharpshooters. Took you a little while, but here's your next clue."[Hands them an envelope]"Pew! Pew![Walks off]

Sam:"Uh, sorry about that Luke. Laser tag just isn't my thing."

Luke:"That's okay. I get into it, but I know it's not everyone's jam. Anyway,"[takes the clue out of the envelope.]"we still got the next clue; How, now, brown cow, don't take a lickin', you'll win this round unless you're chicken."

Sam:"Hmm, cow, chicken..."[Has an idea]"Oh, that's easy!"

[Later, they arrive at Liam's family's farm. Liam is waiting at his 'Astonishing Quest' booth, when Sam and Luke run up.]

Liam:"Ooh, uh, howdy, welcome to my family's farm, your challenge is to collect a dozen eggs from yonder hen house,"[hands them a basket, and they run in.]"Oh and... You city folk might wanna breathe through your mouths."

[In the hen house.]

Sam:"Bawk, bawk, bawk-bawk, ba-gawk, bawk.[The chickens come up to him.]"Ooh, aren't they cute?"

Luke[Seeing how pointy their beaks are, shudders.]"I-I-I don't know, bro. Those beaks look pretty sharp."

Sam[With a full basket]"All done. One dozen eggs."

[Sam points to Luke and clicks his tongue. Just then, the chickens surround Luke and start pecking around his feet.]

Luke[Panicking]"Shoo, dudes! Aah!"

[Luke freaks out and knocks Sam over, splattering their eggs all over themselves. Eventually, they get another dozen eggs and presen them to Liam.]

Liam:"Here's your next clue."

Luke[To Sam as he takes out the clue.]"Sorry I messed that up. Farms aren't really my thing."

Sam:"That's okay, I mean,I love them, but, I get they're not for everybody."

Luke:"We'll just avoid any dates that involve lasers and livestock."

[They laugh awkwardly.]

Sam:"So, here's our next clue; Feeling restless? In a rut? Come over here, and shake your butt."

Luke:"Ooh, I know that one."

[Later, Sam, Luke, and some of the other teams are at the 'Werk it Dance Studio', Luke is excited, but Sam is uncertain.]

Dance Instructor:"Okay, questers. Who's ready to get their cardio on, eh? Just follow the dance moves to get the next clue."

Luke[Throwing the goats]"Whoop! Whoop!"

[Sam is nervous.]

Dance Instructor:"Alright! Five, six, seven, ocho!"

[He turns the music on and starts shaking it, everyone else does the same, except Sam who is having trouble, and accidentally falls on Scoots' lap.]

Scoots[Not very pleased about this.]"Shove off, mister! This seat's taken."

[Scoots throws Sam off, and she lands on the dancers in a heap.]

[After the dance, the other teams continue on the quest, while Sam and Luke talk outside the studio.]

Sam:"Sorry, dancing's not really my thing."

Luke:"As in, all, dancing? Like, even at,concerts?"[Sam shrugs; Luke hesitates]"Cool, I get that."[Awkward silence and Luke pulls out the next clue.]"Here's our next clue;Your muscles ache, but don't you stop, your challenge is to reach the top. Huh."

Sam:"Ooh, ooh, ooh, I know this one."

[Later, they are at the park's rock climbing wall.]

Rock Climbing Instructor:"Alright, just reach the top to get the next clue."

Sam[Almost at the top]"Almost there, how you doin' Lukes?"

Luke[Dangling from her rope]"It's not really my thing."

[Sam isn't surprised by this, he grabs the clue and they head down.]

[Later, Luke is sitting on a bench next to a row of chemical toilets, depressed. Loni walks up to him.]

Loni:"Hey Luke! Look at this cool backpack Loki gave me for the Quest."[Loni shows Luke the backpack, which is actually a leash, handled by Loki, who walks up to them, and motions for Luke not to tell.]"Where's Sam?"

Luke:"Bathroom."

Loki:"So, how's it going?"

Luke:"Not good dude, I thought Sam and I were gonna have everything in common, but it turns out we have like,nada.

Loni:"Oh, well, at least you have nada."

Loki:"Loni, nada means nothing. Okay, don't panic, this is totally normal with new couples. It even happened with Bebe and me."

Luke:"Really? So how'd you deal?"

Loki:"I embraced the things Bebe liked, and she embraced the things I liked; just be open to the stuff Sam's into, and you might actually enjoy it."[Luke likes the idea, suddenly Loki realizes something.]"Oh no, Loni got off his leash!"[Calls]"Loni!"[Runs off]"Here, Loni!"

[Later, Sam and Luke are walking down the streets, Luke reading the next clue.]

Luke:"Okay, next clue;Mail that burger, back to sender, try something healthy, from our blender."

Sam:"Oh, the organic juice store!"[Runs off]

Luke[Unsure]"Awesome."

[Later, at the store...]

Juice Store Clerk:"Namaste, fellow quester. Your challenge is to identify as many ingredients as you can, in our new 'Earth Warrior' juice."

Sam:"Mmm, hope it's as good as your spinach spritzer. Eh?"

Luke[Pretending to like organic juice.]"Yeah, mmm, let me get in on this."

[He and Sam smile at each other, the clerk hands them the juice and they both drink.]

Sam:"Okay, I'm tasting; kale, wheatgrass, dandelions, nutritional yeastand-

[Right at that moment, Luke spits his juice out, and all over Sam.]

Luke:"Fish oil."[Smiles awkwardly]

[Later, they are at Tall Timbers Park, in a sailboat.]

Sam[Reading the clue that led them here.]"Tie the knot and cast away, the wind's at your back so don't delay.[Excitedly]Yes! Ilovesailing."

Luke[Nervous about this]"Totally, I mean, you know, who doesn't."

[Luke tries to get on board, but his left foot gets stuck in the mud, and his right foot touches the boat, which starts drifting away, putting Luna in a very uncomfortable situation.]

Sam[Offers Luke a hand]"Here, here, let me help you."[Pulls Luke on board. Sam handles the tie rod, while Luke just keeps low, nervous.]"All we gotta do is make it across the pond, Luke. Hoist the main sail."

Luke[Not knowing what that means]"Um, yeah, uh, the main sail."

Sam[Confused]"Right by the boom?"[Luke still has no clue.]"That pole."

Luke:"Right, the pole."[Luna works on the knot, but he lets the rope go and the sail starts spinning freely, the boys duck the first round, but on the second round Luna finds himself hanging from the boom, and lands on Sam, the sail then starts spinning faster and the whole boat launches them into the pond, they get out at the end of the pond, not saying anything, and Luke sees the clue.]"Well, we got the clue."[Sees Sam's lack of enthusiasm about this]"I'm sorry about that Sam. You know, sailing's just-"

Sam[Having heard this before.]"Not really your thing?"[Luke nods]"Then why didn't you just tell me that?"

Luke:"I just wanted us to have something in common."[sighs]"Haven't you noticed? We've kind of got nothing."

Sam[Understanding]"Yeah, I noticed. It's such a bummer cause, I kind of thought we were perfect for each other."

Luke:"Me too."

Sam:"Well, what do you think? Should we call it quits?"

Luke:"Well, we've come this far. We, we might as well finish the quest anyway. You know, as friends."

Sam[Heartbroken]"Right, friends."

[They're both heartbroken by this.]

Luke:"Well, I guess I should, read the last clue;One last challenge, and then you can gloat, this Astonishing Quest, ends on a sweet note."

[Later, they enter 'Larry Berry Bakery', still bummed out, and see that the other teams have beaten them there.]

Mayor Davis:"You made it, boys! Congratulations! Let me show you to your station.[Escorts them to a table]"Your last challenge is to bake an apple pie! Good luck!"[Plays a laser sound effect on his keyboard.]

Luke and Sam[Seeing the situation they're in.]"Ooh, baking's not really my thing."

[Luke gasps, and they smile at each other, realizing they finally have something in common.]

Luke[Reading the recipe]"Okay, two sticks of butter."[They both reach for the butter, Luke grabs both sticks and Sam's hand lands on his, they look at each other, blushing, Sam pulls away and awkwardly smiles, Luke puts the butter in the bowl and awkwardly smiles back.]"One cup flour."[Sam puts the flour in]"Two cups of lard."[Luke puts the lard in.]"And, uh, maybe we should mix it up now."

[Sam grabs the bowl, puts it under the mixer, and turns it on hi. It starts mixing, but since they're not holding the bowl, it starts spinning with the mixer, and the dough splatters all over Sam. The boys look at themselves, and Luke, seeing that he's still clean, starts laughing, Sam looks at Luke unamused, but then grows a devilish grin, which turns into a sinister look, he grabs Luna and gives him a big hug, and they start laughing together, so much that they fall over, and continue laughing on the floor, once they stop laughing they look at each other, Sam smiles at Luke, and Luke smiles back. Suddenly, an air horn sound goes off.]

Mayor Davis:"Spatulas down, folks. We have our quest winners![Plays a drumroll sound effect.]"Scoots and Helen were the first to finish the final challenge and bonus: Their pie is delish![Hands the trophy to them.]Congrats, ladies."

Scoots Helen:"Woo-hoo!"

[The two ladies then do a victory lap. Luke looks back at Sam.]

Luke:"Well, we didn't win, but I had a lot of fun today. I think I was wrong before, I know we don't have a lot in common, but maybe we can discover new things we both like, you know, like, together."

Sam[smiles]"I'd really like that. And, uh, next time, I'll try not to hit you with any lasers."

Luke[Giggles]"I'll try not to spit any juice on you."

[They both laugh and then hug. Luke then looks at his two oldest brothers, Loki, giving a thumbs-up, and Loni is in awe. Luke smiles and gives them a thumbs-up back.]

Loni[Hears a dog barking]"Ooh, cute dog."[Walks towards it]"Is it a corgi?"

[Loki pulls Loni back on the leash and Scoots and Helen speed across them.]

Helen[Hops off the scooter and throws the pie onto the ground.]"Eat my crust, losers!"

[She laughs, until her mask falls off, revealing her to actually be Lynn, who realizes that he's been exposed.]

Mayor Davis[Angrily]"Lynn Loud?! I thought I banned you!"[Plays a siren sound effect.]

Lynn:"Uh oh. Floor it, Scoots!"

[Scoots speeds across Lynn, who hops back on, and they escape.]

Mayor Davis[Chases after them]"Get back here with that trophy!"

[Luke and Sam laugh at this. They then look at each other and smile.]
