A/N:
Ello again! Long time no see! Here it is finally… Episode 5: Topsy Turvy! Enjoy!
(Trina and Kelly are in hotel room. It is first thing in the morning, and Kelly doesn't want to get up)
Trina: KELLY DARLING! Gooooooooooooooood MORNING!
Kelly: Urgh.
Trina: Time to rise and shine! The sun is shining and the birds are chirping… and the grass is growing… and… and… the sun is shining!
Kelly: (covers head with pillow) I dun wanna!
Trina: Come on you lazy bum! Its time to get up! (Sits on bed, gets idea, evil look)
Kelly: I am NOT a morning person… thank you… (rolls over)
Trina: (gets up and jumps on the bed singing: Raindrops keep falling on my head)
Kelly: FINE! Just stop that awful NOISE!
Trina: Noise? Hey!
Kelly: (laughs)
(Follow Kelly and Trina as they make their entrance into the breakfast room- Zoom out on Kelly and Trina, go to Wren and Kailee who are sitting and waiting for Rae and Sylvia to come for breakfast. Enter Derek and Andy)
Andy: Morning' Kailee! (Takes seat next to wren) Morning Wren…
(Flashback to the night before)
Wren: (Opens door, sees Andy and immediately closes it)
Rae: Who was that?
Wren: No one.
Andy: (from outside) Wren!
Kailee: Oh! Yes! And… we were just… leaving!
Wren: (rounds on them) what! No you aren't!
Rae: But we need… ICE!
Sylvia: (nods) Bye! (opens door, Andy walks in)
Wren: (sighs) I'm not talking to you starting... (Waits five seconds) now.
Andy: But… we… need to talk
Wren: (ignores him- sits on bed, puts on headphones and brings out a book)
Andy: (shakes head) Fine. (takes seat in chair) I just wanted to say some things before you never talk to me again.
Wren: (keeps reading)
Andy: (keeps sitting)
(10 minutes later)
Wren: (takes off headphones) ok. Talk.
Andy: (startled, stands up) Ok… well… first off… ok… well… I was a jerk….
Wren: (snorts, sarcastically) No… really!
Andy: Just… let me finish… (Starts pacing)
Wren: (looks at Andy expectantly)
Andy: I was a jerk… and I shouldn't have gotten mad at Tucker… and I should have let you make your own decisions and I'm sorry for not being there for you, and now… I really wish I had been… (Slumps back into chair) And… I'm just really sorry…
Wren: (to herself. But still out loud so that Andy can hear) Ohhhh and Exton apologizing… I wish I had a tape recorder!
Andy: (looks away from Wren)
Wren: aw… I'm sorry! It's been a bad… day… (tears start to silently run down her cheek)
Andy: (gets up from chair and goes to sit beside wren, giving her a bear hug) I'm sorry Wren… (hesitantly kisses the top of her head, and holds her while she cries.)
(End Flashback)
Andy: Wren? (goes to sit beside her- Caring voice) Are you alright?
Wren: (weak smile) yeah… thanks Exton.
Andy: Alright… just checking…
(Flash to in Classes)
English Teacher: Today we're starting to read the Odyssey. The Epic Journey of a man named Odysseus… (looks at attendance sheet) Mr… ummm… Woode. Would you read for us please?
Tucker: (starts reading)
Josh: (hissing) Bailey!
Bailey: (looks over at Josh who throws her a note – she uncrumples it and reads it quietly to herself.) (voiceover) Hey Billy! How are you? Looking forward to later! (Writes back- muttering) Yep! Me too! What do you think of the Odyssey? (Throws note back at Josh)
Josh: (opens up note- mutters as writing) Urg… stupid Odysseus! (tosses it back)
Bailey: (writing back) I totally agree! Soooo boring!
Teacher: Alright. Get into partners and discuss the chapter on Circe.
Josh + Bailey: (look at each other)
Josh: Uh… so… what's this chapter about? I kinda wasn't paying attention…
Bailey: well basically… there's a lot of magic and seduction.
Josh: Sounds kinky.
Bailey: Um. Yeah. Very.
(Flash to Kailee, Derek, Andy, Wren, Rae, Sylvia and Lucas after class walking to the busses.)
Kailee: NO! X is equal to two times the square root of eleven!
Derek: no… it's the square root of eleven plus two!
Kailee: NO!
Wren: God… math… I HATE math!
Sylvia: (shrugs) its not that bad.
Rae: (Grabs Sylvia's shoulders) WHAT are you NUTS?
Sylvia: (blinks) um no?
Lucas: Hey! No abusing Sylvia!
Sylvia: Thanks Luke!
Rae: (to Lucas) would you like me to abuse you?
Lucas: Um… nope! Fine… (gestures at Sylvia) Abuse away!
Sylvia: Hey!
Kailee: (laughs at Sylvia's plight)
Wren: What's this?
Andy: I duno I'm confused.
Rae: GOOD that was the POINT!
Wren: (pointedly) do YOU know what's going on?
Rae: (Glares) that's NOT the point!
Andy: ummm I thought that WAS the point? (wind blows)
Wren: It's okay (pats his shoulder) Don't hurt yourself.
Andy: Alright…
(Flash to Kieran, Gavin and Alex)
Kieran: I'm BORED! Lets… SING!
Alex + Gavin: Okay!
Gavin+ Alex+ Kieran: OH THE- Fluties on the bus go chirp chirp chirp! Chirp chirp chirp, chirp chirp chirp. Oh the Fluties on the bus go…
Alex: Wait!
Gavin+ Keiran: (raise eyebrows) Yes?
Alex: We don't have a verse for saxophones!
Kieran: What kind of noise does a saxophone make?
Gavin: (Shudders) I duno… but OH BOY do they make noise!
Alex and Kieran: (laugh)
(Flash to the Horns)
Alexis: CONCERT! We get to dress up and go to a CONCERT!
Tucker: (unenthousiastically) Oh yay.
Hannah: Aw! Poor Tucker!
Albert: Oh?
Oliver: What happened?
Hannah: (pats Tuck's back) Erm… yesterday didn't go as planned…
Albert + Oliver: (nod in understanding)
Tucker: (grunts then mutters) Understatement. Stupid Exton.
Hannah: I think you need a hug. (reaches over and hugs him)
Tucker: Thanks (small grateful smile- still dejected)
Hannah: (looks at him sadly)
Alexis: So have you talked to her yet? You know… apologized?
Tucker: Wha?
Hannah: Do you need me to spell it out for you?
Alexis: A-P-O-L-O-G-I-Z-E!
Hannah: not exactly what I was going for… but it works…
Tucker: I can't talk to her… she said she hated me!
Alexis: jeeez… she really meant apologize now or die!
Tucker: but…that's not what she said!
Hannah + Alexis: Yes it is….
Hannah: and she said it quite plainly too.
Oliver + Albert: (look confused)
Tucker: but how does hating… turn into… (Stops to think- shakes head) Girls really do have their own language don't they? (Slumps back into seat)
(Flash to Jill and Garth)
Garth: So we know the plan?
Jill: we know the plan!
(Adelaide is walking down the aisle of the bus and over hears them. She takes the seat behind the two)
Addie: What plan?
(Jill + Garth pretend to look confused but fail miserably)
Jill: plan? What plan?
Garth: There IS no plan!
Addie: Fine. Don't tell me about the plan… I'll figure it out sooner or later… (muttering to herself but loud enough so that Jill hears) mostly by means of torture…
Jill: SAY WHAT!
(flash to at hotel)
Ms S: Alright Gang! The concert is in three hours! It is now (looks at watch) 5:00. We will be out the door by 7:30 got it?
Band: (choruses YES and other such affirmative statements)
Ms S: Alright then. What are you waiting for? GO!
(Everyone bustles off to get ready, except Wren , and Andy (who sees her staying- makes excuses to Derek-) Wren Exits hotel and sits on a bench outside. It is blustery and her hair is blowing every which way.)
Wren: (stares into oblivion- thinking about something)
Andy: (quietly sits beside her) watcha thinking 'bout?
Wren: (jumps slightly at his voice) oh… you know…nothing much… (Sighs)
Andy: oh…
(a few minutes pass in friendly silence)
Wren: I have… a question…
Andy: Alright… shoot.
Wren: What possessed you to… you know… attack Tuck?
Andy: Wait a minute! I was provoked!
Wren: shh! That's not what I mean… you could have ignored him!
Andy: He insulted me!
Wren: (raises eyebrow) you could have just thrown insults back at him… instead you chose to beat the snot out of him… what's gotten into you lately? (leans head on his shoulder)
Andy: Nothing?
Wren: shut up Exton… you haven't been yourself...
Andy: I'm always myself…
Wren: no! (moves her head from his shoulder) Yesterday especially!... remember when my goldfish died?
Andy: yeah… you cried for like a week!
Wren: and do you remember what you did?
Andy: urm…
Wren: you sat with me in the treehouse until suppertime, and THEN the next day you had a funeral for it!
Andy: oh yeah…
Wren: that's the Andy I know… where was he yesterday?
Andy: (sighs) he was jealous…
Wren: and that's why you…
Andy: yep.
Wren: oh…
Andy: Oh? What's oh?
Wren: (small grin) nothing…
Andy: so… do you like him?
Wren: Tucker? Well I guess…he's a nice guy… and he's good company… but…
Andy: There's a but?
Wren: Oh! I don't know! (sighs) I should probably go get ready…
Andy: Yeah… but… you cant… go… with out… this…
Wren: Without wha-
Andy: (kisses her swiftly) Think on THAT Miss. Evans… (gets up and strides away from her towards the door of the hotel)
Wren: (stunned for a moment- goes to catch up with Andy who is already on the stairs- catches up with him on the fourth floor landing) Andy! (gasp of air- then kisses him quickly)… that's the but. (dashes up to the sixth floor before he can say anything)
(Flash to Kailee, Wren, Rae and Sylvia- Wren has just entered the room flustered and out of breath from running up the stairs)
Kailee: (raises eyebrows) Where have you been?
Wren: Nowhere… just out for a walk…
Rae: Uh huh… probably out kissing-
Wren: (whips pillow at Rae) RAE-LYNN! (Laughs)
Sylvia: (smiles)
Rae: PILLOW FIGHT! (grabs pillow and attacks Wren)
(later at concert- Bailey and Josh are sitting together- the orchestra is playing the Harry Potter Suite's Window to the Past.)
Bailey: (whispering) oh! Its so pretty!
Ryan: (overhearing Bailey's words whispers in Josh's other ear) Like you… its pretty just like you!
Josh: (elbows Ryan. To Bailey:) Yeah… it's kinda haunting though… (Tentatively takes Bailey's hand and holds it)
Bailey: (sighs contentedly)
(Flash around the band to see: Diego who has an ice cream cone in one hand, and popcorn in the other, Kailee who is stuck between TJ and Derek and looking rather uncomfortable (Derek and TJ are glaring daggers at each other), Charlie and Freddy who have both fallen asleep and are snoring. Diego and Wayne poke them awake, Etc)
(After Concert 11:30)
Mr. T: Alright Silverwoord High School! OVER HERE! (other concert goers look at the band funny) YES! SILVERWOOD! Alright. Have we got everyone? (everyone looks around) Okay! Lets go! (starts off towards door- Jill and Garth lag behind.)
(Follow the band until they pass "The Club". Jill and Garth slip in unnoticed by the Band parents and the directors. It is dark and there are few people.)
(Flash back outside to the band who haven't noticed the missing Jill and Garth)
Andy: Well as far as concerts go… that one wasn't too bad!
Wren: of COURSE not! Which were your favourites? (looks at rest) I liked Window to the past, and Fawkes the Phoenix, and Dobby the House Elf, and Cakes for Crabbe and Goyle wasn't bad either!
Andy: Yeah… right… those ones!
Rae: Jeez how can you remember…
Sylvia: (jumps into the conversation with Wren)… I'm quite partial to the Quidditch match, and Mr. Longbottom Flies!
Lucas: (shakes head sadly)
Derek: now that is what I call sad.
Wren: SAD? NO!
Andy: You can name all the songs… from the Harry Potter Suite… jeez you probably even have the CD!
Wren: Actually….
All: (laugh)
(Flash back to Jill and Garth)
Jill:(runs over to bar dragging Garth along) Can I get a High Roller please?
(glances eagerly at bartnender)
Bartender: vas? (bartender walks away, returns with another man)
Bartender 2: Whas cahn I geit fur ou?
Garth: (feeling useless) A beer for me, and a high roller for my precious here. (Grins retardedly at Jill)
(Bartneder leaves for drinks, returns and hands them Jill and Garth)
Jill: lets dance Garthie! Ooooh it looks like fun! They all look like...
Garth: (interrupts) such great dancers. I dunno Jill... I can't dance like that...
Jill: oh come on, just follow the beat. You're a percussionist are you not? It's your job!
Garth: I can't do my job. Not with all the off beats in the song...how do I move like that (looks terrified at nearby couple jirrating off one another)
Jill: (grinning after placing her and Garth into situation) I guess we'll see (grabs Garth's arm and drags him into crowd)
(Jill and Garth are dancing. Strange people keep glancing at them. After about 5 minutes, Jill drags Garth to the bar again)
Jill: (after ordering a beer for herself) that was the most embarrassing thing. We can't dance, my body doesn't move like that!
Garth: no, it doesn't, but that's just because it moves NORMALLY! I'm sorry, but the way they move is just totally...
Jill: (bitterly chugs beer) provocative, sexy and wonderful?
Garth: (grabs Jill's mug and places on table) wrong...Come on Jill, do you really wanna dance like them. We're too good to do that.
(Garth and Jill have a couple more beers, and head back to the dance floor. They don't get strange looks anymore.)
Garth: (begins to feel sick)I will return shortly my dear. Je t'aime... (Runs off to washroom)
Jill: (wobbles into seat) und ich du...(Orders another drink)
(Creepy old German guy approaches table)
Guy: Guten nacht schön. (Licks lips greedily)
Jill: AHHHH (runs off in direction of Garth. Runs into men's washroom)
Garth (look of utter shock and amazement): sweetie, wrong door.
Jill: eww...mouldy sausage...MOULDY SAUSAGES (points out door)
Garth: (blank stare) are you ok sweetie pie?
Jill: (cringes) old...man...hitting...oooonnnn...MMMMMMEEEEE!
Garth: (taken back by the sudden yelling) Where? (suddenly turns to toilet, gags, then pukes into it)
Jill: Oh Garth, are you ok? Garth?
Garth: Oh muffin, no need to worry, Garth is here… Do you have a mint?
Jill: Here you go (takes out mint and places into her mouth without realizing it, a few seconds go by) wait a sec...oops...(stops for a second and starts to grin broadly. Jill pulls out more mints and places about 5 in her mouth) Come and get em...
Garth: My pleasure Hun. (Puts hand on Jill's back, pulls her towards him, and starts to kiss her. Makeout session continues for a few minutes)
Jill: (pulls back from Garth) Garth honey, I feel very ill, can we go back to thebandnow...? I feel dizzy... (Randomly falls on ground). Oh, oops didn't see the ground... (Laughs drunkedly)...so tired... (Lays down on filthy muddy ground.)
Garth: Jill? Jill! (crouches on the floor beside her) Oh boy… this is trouble… trouble trouble trouble trouble trouble! Here I am… in a foreign country… Germany no less… and Jull faints in a bar. Oh the luck fairy is with me today… what to do… what to do… what to… AHA! (goes to the phone and dials Adelaide's cell phone number)
(Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring…)
Garth: COME ON ADDIE!
(Ring… Ring… Ring…)
Adelaide: (groggy) hello?
Garth: ADDIE!
Adelaide: Garth? What in the world do you want? Its nearly one-freaking-thirty in the morning! You've woken up Kelly and Trina as well! THIS HAD BETTER BE IMPORTANT LAVOWSKI! And… (looks around) WHERE IN THE WORLD IS JILL?
Garth: Heh… now about that… Addie… you have to promise me… not to yell or anything… but… I REALLY need help… and Jill is… incapacitated… at the moment…
Addie: WHAT? GARTH LAVOWSKI! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?
Garth: (begging) Addie! I told you not to yell! And I REALLY need your help!
Addie: Garth… you are SUCH a stinker you know that! Where are you?
Garth: (thinks) ummmm… you know… on the way to the concert…
Addie: yes…
Garth: There.
Addie: Oh god… Garth… you owe me BIG! (hangs up phone)
Kelly: Who in the world calls you at this hour?
Addie: Garth.
Kelly+ Trina: GARTH?
Addie: yeah. Alright… so… Kel… you stay here… and man the phones.
Kelly: n'yuh huh… (rolls over and goes back to sleep)
Addie: (continues) and Trina… we need… a… distraction…
Trina: A distraction?
Addie: (smiles evilly) yes. That's right… a distraction.
(Flash to later- Addie has found Garth and is helping him to carry Jill back to the hotel.)
Addie: what possessed you to pull such a stupid stunt?
Garth: (wide eyed- points at Jill)
Addie: SURE… blame it on the girl who's knocked out…
Garth: well it was… woah…
Addie: woah? OH! (muttering) GOD what did Trina do!
Garth: Trina?
Addie: Yeah… she was supposed to create a distraction…
Trina: (bounces up) hey Addie!
Garth: (muttering) nice distraction…
Trina: I thought so! Jeez! They make fire alarms so EASY to pull!
(Addie and Garth sigh/laugh at Trina and prop Jill up. Flash to Tucker and the Horns)
Tucker: (looking at Andy and Wren- Wren's head is propped against Andy's shoulder) Jeeez… what has Exton got that I haven't got!
Alexis: (sleppy) A shoulder? (yawns) wait…
Hannah: HE'S probably apologized… jeez stop being so insensitive!
Tuck: I am NOT insensitive! I just don't see why I have to apologize!
Hannah: Hmm… lets THINK about that for a second… Maybe its because you're an insensitive jerk who picked a fight?
Tucker: SO?
Hannah: ARGH! I give up!
Tucker: but… but… you have to help me!
Hannah: I tried!
Tucker: But…you can't just give up on me!
Hannah: (sceptical) oh?
Tucker: Well you COULD… but I need your help!
Hannah: (thrusts Alexis forward) Why me? Why not Lexis?
Alexis: (wakes up from a daze and looks around wildly) who? What? Something happen?
Hannah: (hits head with hand) fine. I'll help you! Now GO APOLOGIZE!
Tucker: now?
Hannah: um… yeah?
Tucker: but…(glances at Wren and Andy) they… (gestures "discreetly" at Wren)
Hannah: (looks over) SO!
Tucker: not today… but I will… (wanders away)
Hannah: (sad look on face- sighs) Why do I get sucked into these things? (stares at Tuck's back and shakes head)
Alexis: huh? Oh well (dozes off again)
Tucker: (turns back around) Alexis! Hannaaah! (whines)
Hannah: ALRIGHT THEN! You know what you have to do!
Tucker: but Hannah!
Hannah: Go! (turns away from him and starts talking to the sleeping Alexis)
Tucker: (glares at Hannah's back- mumbling) fine… stupid Hannah… what does she know anyways? (continues muttering)
(Flash to Rae, Ryan, Kailee, Derek, TJ, Wren, Andy, and Sylvia)
Rae: god…I am going to KILL whoever pulled that stupid-freaking-firealarm!
Ryan: come on… its not that bad! I mean, you're with me aren't you?
Rae: (shoves him) yeah cause THAT makes everything better… (rolls eyes)
Wren: (big yawn- head still leaning against Andy) Y'know Rae… I might just join you in the killing… and all… but the question still remains... how to cover that up…
Rae: That would be a question…
Wren: That it would. (yawns again- Andy stiffens- Wren turns to him) What?
Andy: Oh nothing… just Tucker…
Wren: Oh. (is still mad at Tuck)
Tucker: Approaches slow and carefully) Wren… can I have a word?
Wren: word?
Tucker: You know what I mean…
Wren: fine. Talk.
Tucker: um… (Glares at Andy) privately?
Wren: ummm… maybe some other time… it's a little early.
Tucker: uh sure… another time… it can wait…
Wren: okay then.
Tucker: (walks away dejectedly)
Andy: way to let him down easy there Wren.
Wren: (half serious, half playful glare)
Andy: Erm… nevermind I take it back
Wren: (smiles) much better!
Kailee: well now we know who wears the pants in that relationship!
TJ: (chuckles to self)
Kailee: what?
TJ: nothing… I just thought of something (nods)
Kailee: oh? And what would that be?
TJ: Nothing!
Kailee: (grabs his arm) c'mon! TELL ME!
TJ: (blushes) nope!
Kailee + TJ: (keep arguing/ flirting)
Derek: (getting angry)
Mr. T: (interrupting) Alright you hooligans! Get back to your rooms and straight to bed!
(everyone scrambles in)
Kailee+ TJ: (laughing as they climb the stairs)
Derek: (steaming behind them)
Andy: (behind Derek with Wren, puts hand on Derek's shoulder) don't do anything stupid.
Derek: (raises eyebrow) and YOU would be one to talk?
Andy: (moves his hand) HEY! I fixed things didn't I?
Wren: (loops arm through Andy's) You sure did. (eyes narrow staring straight ahead) Unlike… some people…
Andy: (notices the look on Wren's face) aww… here… (moves so that Wren is walking in front, and starts massaging her shoulders.)
Wren: (in shock) umm… thanks… wow… that feels really good…
Derek: (looks fed up)
Andy: sorry man. (settles his arm around Wren's shoulder)
Derek: its alright…
(all separate to go to bed)
(Flash to Trina and Kelly)
Trina: GET UP KELLY! It's a new day!
Kelly: (groans and rolls over)
Trina: come on silly! We actually get to rehearse today!
Kelly: That SO gives me incentive to get up…
Trina: now that's not the right attitude! What kind of a band geek are you?
Kelly: Oh... I duno… the tired kind? You just woke up at… (looks at watch) FIVE? We just got back to bed at like TWO!
Trina: true…
Kelly: go back to sleep for another hour at least. (rolls eyes)
Trina: fine. (pouts and rolls over to fall asleep again)
(Jill asleep in bed and Garth sleeping in a chair, his head on the desk)
(Jill wakes up)
Jill: ow! My head is KILLING me!
Garth: (wakes up)… don't yell… it'll make it hurt more…
Jill: what happened? And why do I feel like someone hit me over the head with a hammer?
Garth: You remember last night?
Jill: ummm… I remember sneaking into the club… and dancing… and that's all.
Garth: oh… well my dear… you had a bit too much to drink.
Jill: but I only got juice…
Garth: is THAT what you thought you were drinking?
Jill: what are you implying?
Garth: nothing. Nevermind. Just get up and get ready.
Jill: what? Fine. But we're talking after.
Garth: sure. Now go before I do it for you.
Jill: Fine! Going! Going! (scrambles off with stuff into the bathroom)
Garth: (sighs)
(knock on the door)
Garth: (opens the door to see Addie)
Addie: You owe me buster. You owe me bigtime.
Garth: I know.
Addie: I had to cover for you for room check too! Your roomies aren't too bright but whatever.
Garth: Thanks SO much!
Addie: look at the results of your stupid, mushy, flirting.
Garth: I KNOW and I'm sorry for being dumb.
Addie: yes… dumb you were.
Jill: (comes out of the bathroom) Ready guys?
Addie: sure.
Garth: yeah. Lets go.
(Flash to Inky, Sloane, Dex, Toby and Skye – At breakfast table)
Skye: Tiiiiiiiiiiired!
Sloane: I'm not! I'm wide awake!
Inky: uh huh… sure you are…
Sloane: Really I am!
Inky: Liar
Sloane: No! (slumps down on table)
Inky: See… told ya…
(All laugh)
(Flash to Wren, Andy, Derek, Kailee, TJ, Sylvia, Rae, and Lucas)
Sylvia: (quietly) so… I wonder who pulled the fire alarm… seeing as there was nothing wrong…
Rae: I don't know… but I'm going to KILL them!
Kailee: Aww! Poor Rae-Lynn is grumpy this morning!
Rae: (breathing heavily) NOT… GRUMPY!
Kailee: (shrugs) if you say so…
Rae: (glares at Kailee)
TJ: (heroically) Don't worry Kailee! I'll protect you!
(Wren and Andy look at each other then both look at Derek who is pointedly not looking at Kailee and TJ)
Kailee: WOW! My very own knight in shining armor!
Lucas: (joking) complete with large instrument and wimpy bow!
TJ: (turns to glare)
Lucas: no offence or anything of course… (scratches the back of his head and looks around innocently)
Sylvia: no string bass abuse! (hits Lucas on the arm) he's the only one we've got!
Lucas: aw… fine. Let's go.
Sylvia: aw… but we can't leave Rae here to abuse him…
Lucas: sure we can!
Sylvia: and leave her here with TJ to abuse… Wren and Andy who are… well we won't even GO there… and Derek who looks like he's going to kill someone… yeah that's good…
Lucas: oh come on… she'll fit right in…
Sylvia: (glares at him) watch what you're saying about my friends!
Lucas: you said it first!
Sylvia: (glares at him) watch it or I might just… I don't know… but something evil and menacing!
Lucas: (skeptical look) are you even capable of that?
Sylvia: (mock offence) YES! (glares) you watch… one day…
Lucas: uh huh…
Mr. T: All right Silverwood! Finish up your breakfast! Our first rehearsal is in an hour! (everyone groans) Move it or lose it people!
Rae: (grumbles) Darn those navy reserve officer types…
(Flash to at rehearsal)
REHEARSAL #1- Andy gets his Comeuppance (What he deserves)
Mr. T: Okay gang! Pull out The Mission Suite
Kailee: (starts to panic- turns to Sylvia) I can't play this solo! It's too hard, and so pretty and- FREDDY! (Freddy jumps) Do YOU want to play it?
Freddy: no way. That's why YOU'RE section leader…
Kailee: oh… right…
Mr. T: All right, we'll start at the top… with the "Gabriel's Oboe" movement. Kailee, ready?
Kailee: (thinks: no!) Uh… yeah…
Mr. T: One, Two, Three… (a beautiful flowing oboe solo starts) (Kailee finishes solo- Melody is taken over by flute soloist Carlyn) (Mr. T Slams stand) ANDREW EXTON! What in the name of God's Green Earth are you doing?
Andy: (has started a mock snake dance. He stops) I'm being an oboe, sir. (Wren giggles and Kailee glares)
Mr. T: Alright Exton… that does it… You've done nothing but make oboe jokes all year. Come here. Ms. S… the weapon please!
Ms. S: (pale) But… Mr. T! The German police…
Mr. T: THE SPARE, WOMAN!
Ms. S: Oh! Right! (hands him a case)
Mr. T: (pulls out a spare oboe and reed and hands them to Andy) Alright Exton. Put it together
Andy: (complies with some difficulty)
Mr. T: now play it.
Andy: how?
Mr. T: You're the genius Exton… you figure it out… Maybe you should try a snake dance? (band laughs)
Andy: (shrugs and blows- hard)
Spare oboe: SQUAWK!
Kailee: PLEASE Mr. T! Make him STOP! This is cruelty to oboes!
Mr. T: It's not like blowing into a trombone is it Mr. Exton? A 'bone will play a note nicely- no backpressure or resistance. Now, I hope this experience has taught you something…
Andy: Snake dances don't make oboes work? (winks at Wren, who grins back at him- Tuck sees and snaps his band pencil in half. Hannah hands him a new one)
Mr. T: (glares) Exton… repeat after me… If you catch me making…
Andy: Okay, OKAY… If you catch me making fun of the oboes, you'll humiliate me in front of the whole band. I get it.
Mr. T: I was thinking more along the lines of "learning respect for oboes"… I need coffee. Five minute break people! (Walks off muttering to self)
Kailee: Andy… exactly what do you have against oboes?
Andy: (as a group gathers) Uh… they're squawky… obnoxious… and HEY!
Kailee: (leaps forward, claws bared, ready to claw his eyes out)
Derek: (grabs her waist) Come on Kai, I don't think this will solve the problem…
Kailee: (struggling) let me at him! I'll show him obnoxious! AIIEEEEEEEE! (war call)
Wren: Andy… I think now would be a good time to leave! (grabs his arm and pulls him away) Why do you provoke her? You know how touchy she is about her oboe pride…
Andy: (grins) its fun! (frowns) until she gets violent…
Wren: Well, don't do it anymore, okay? For me?
