KIM POSSIBLE-

ALTERED EGOS

(We start on the street near Kim's house on a hot Friday afternoon in May; a few children are playing baseball until a foul ball breaks a nearby window, and they leave in a panic. The screen fades to a few hours later, about 3:15, as we see Kim Possible approaching her house, with Ron Stoppable in tow; Kim's face is set in a nervous grin as they approach Kim's house.)

Ron:

Oh, man, I hate today! They gave us our report cards!

Kim:

That's right, Ron.

Ron:

A C+ in Biology, A C in Algebra, I'll probably get two D's from Cheerleading.

Kim:

You've got to be kidding, Ron. You're the best cheerleader (in a whisper) in terms of his bark. (She opens Ron's backpack.

Ron:

Kim, what are you doing?

Kim:

Better late than never! (She dumps everything out of Ron's backpack, looking for the report card in the pile of books, pens and pencils. While Kim is preoccupied with her search, Ron makes the mistake of taking the report card out of his pocket, producing a slight rustle that Kim hears.) Ah Ha!

Ron:

No, Kim, please! (As he turns toward home, Ron trips over a sprinkler, enabling Kim to catch him.) Don't do it! Oh, man, I am doomed! I am dead meat! Summer school, here I come! (As he bemoans his impending doom, Kim has opened Ron's report card and her own. She gasps in surprise: On Ron's report card, there are no C's, all B's, while Kim's report card contains mostly A's and B's, except for one class, Cheerleading, with a C.)

Kim: (angry)

No way! No way!

Ron:

I told my grades were bad, but there's no need for you to dwell on my miser-

Kim: (Giving him the report cards)

Look!

Ron:

I don't believe it! You got a C in Cheerleading! It can't be! You're always there on time. You're the best cheerleader we have. Man, that sucks--

Kim:( annoyed)

Yours, Ron.

Ron:

Wha? No way! All B's. Bueno Nacho, here I come! (In celebration, Ron does some clumsy flips, pumps his fists in the air, and yells in jubilation.) Who's the best? Ron's the best! Who's the best? Ron's the best! Who's the best? Ron's the best! (puts his hand to his ear.) One more time. Who's the best? Ron's the best!

Kim: (contemplating her situation.)

Should I or should I not show them my report card? I can't! My parents would go through the roof. Ron, what you think I should do? (Looking around.) Ron? Ron! (While she was thinking, Ron has once again tripped over a lawn sprinkler.)

Ron:

Sorry, Kim! I was a little distracted.

Kim:

Obviously.
