Formatting: The main differences between the way the episodes are presented here and true script format are that on this website, everything is left-justified, while script format has specific block-margins for dialog, etc., and that scripts are still traditionally printed in Courier (monospace) font. These episodes are also available on my Popular website (link is in my info) if you would like to read them as though they were printed scripts.

TEASER
FADE IN:
EXT. KENNEDY HIGH PARKING LOT - MORNING
Amid the normal hubbub of the morning student commute, a sleek
red Corvette pulls up to the curb, and everything seemingly
comes to a stop as the passenger-side door opens and a very
leggy blonde steps out.
CUT TO:
INT. SCHOOL HALLWAY - MOMENTS LATER
In a blaze of light, the double doors at the end of the
corridor fly open, and the blonde catwalks in, accompanied by
fashion-show music and swirls of confetti. As she walks by,
girls glare enviously, and boys ogle and drool—including Josh
and Harrison, who are standing with Lily and Brooke. Lily
notices Josh's wide eyes and smacks him on the arm.
JOSH
Ouch! Hey, Lil, I'm married—I'm
not blind.
Harrison sees Brooke frowning at him.
HARRISON
(flustered)
D-d-don't look at me, I'm not
blind either.
Brooke just huffs.
Sugar Daddy comes up behind them, looking from side to side
curiously.
SUGAR
Yo, guys. What's the commotion?
JOSH
Man, you just missed a, a pure
vision.
Lily smacks Josh again.
LILY
It was just a girl.
HARRISON
That was no girl, she was a—a
goddess!
Brooke swats Harrison.
HARRISON (CONT'D)
Hey! I'm not even married!
BROOKE
Keep it up, and you're not even
gonna have a girlfriend.
Sugar Daddy steps out into the hallway and looks for himself.
SUGAR
Wait, that's...
His expression souring, he turns and slugs Josh's arm.
JOSH
Damn, Shug, what are YOU hitting
me for?
SUGAR
Man, don't you know who that is?
That's Ellie!
JOSH
Huh?
SUGAR
My sister? Ellie?
(calling out)
Yo, Gator Breath! What the hell
are you doing her?
The blonde turns: minus all of the fantasy accouterments, she
is still drop-dead gorgeous. At seeing Sugar Daddy, she
breaks into a dazzling grin.
ELLIE
Mikey!
WHITE OUT.
