Readers, I present to you: bloopers from the making of Winter Memories! The bloopers will be ordered by what WM chapter they're related to. This chapter covers WM chapters 1-10.

Please review! I want to write these bloopers only if y'all enjoy them; so let me know if you like this stuff! Blooper ideas are also welcome :).


(Snowball fight. Cassie, Jack, and the kids are absorbed in the game, laughing and all but ignoring the cameras on them. Cassie is forming another snowball when Dan interrupts)

Dan: CASSIE!

(Cassie whirls around, startled, and launches her snowball at Dan. It hits him in the head, snow lodging in his hair)

Cassie: Oh my god! (Characters and crew are laughing hard) I'm so sorry, Dan!

Dan: (Laughing too now) Who knew you had such a good arm?


(Naomi is in the library, trying to put a book on a shelf)

Naomi: Stupid shelving duty!

Cassie: (Stifling a giggle) There you are, Naomi.

Naomi: Oh, hey Cassie.

Cassie: Do you want some help with that?

Naomi: No, I'm good.

Cassie: Um, Naomi…

Naomi: I got this! (She turns back to the bookcase)

Cassie: That's not your line. The point here is that you're too short to reach the shelf.

Naomi: I am not too short! If I just really get on my tiptoes…

Cassie: (Rubbing her temples) We'll have to do another take now. Get down from there, Naomi, before you get hurt—

(Naomi wobbles on her stool. Flailing, she falls backwards onto Cassie, sending them both to the floor.)

Naomi: (Rolls off of Cassie) Ehehe, whoops.

(Cassie sits up and glares at Naomi)

Naomi: I-I mean, I owe you a new set of paintbrushes.

Cassie: That's what I thought you said.

Librarian: (Appears out of nowhere) No talking in the library!


Jack: I. Am. Jack. Frost. And I can prove it.

Cassie: (Snorting) Go ahead, then.

(Jack makes frost patterns on the window of a house. He jumps onto a fence next, but slips and falls forward into a pile of snow. Cassie stares for a moment, and then bursts out laughing)

Cassie: I like this proof.

(Jack sits up, wiping at his face)

Jack: (Laughing) Jack Frost slips on ice. I'm never gonna hear the end of this.


(Jack and Cassie are standing in Cassie's living room, looking around. Or at least, they would be if the lights were on)

Cassie: Is the lighting crew on break? Did we come too early—

(The lights abruptly come on, and Jack and Cassie's jaws drop. Instead of the expected array of drawings, Photoshopped pictures of Jack shirtless and Cassie in a bikini are pinned up all over the walls)

Jack: (Covers his eyes with one hand) Holy…

Cassie: Oh my God. (She looks into the camera) Whose idea was this?

(The cameraman only chuckles. Cassie swears.)

Cassie: Why do I even ask? (Shouting offstage) NAOMI! YOU'RE GONNA PAY FOR THIS!

Jack: Someone take these down, pronto! I-I have to …I'm just gonna…

Cassie: Y-yeah, me too.

Jack: Right.

Cassie: Ok.

(They hurry offstage in different directions, blushing furiously. A moment later, Cassie pops back onstage.)

Cassie: Wait, what happened to my drawings?!


Cassie: So you can't do art the human way. Have you ever tried doing art with your winter powers? Like…I don't know…making snow or ice shapes?

Jack: (Raises an eyebrow) You mean snow people and icicles?"

(A song blares out on the set)

Ice Ice Baby Vanilla, Ice Ice Baby Vanilla

Ice Ice Baby Vanilla, Ice Ice Baby Vanilla

(Jack and Cassie try to continue their lines, but nothing can be heard over the music. Finally they give up and laugh. The camera trained on them bobs up and down, as the cameraman moves to the music)


(Cassie and Naomi are unloading a new delivery of products for The Artist's Loft)

Cassie: Thanks again for helping out. I would have asked Jerry, but his back is giving him trouble lately; he's not really up to lifting heavy loads.

Naomi: It's no problem. I'm sure Dan will thank me for being here to make sure you don't steal from the inventory.

Cassie: I do not steal!

(Cassie reaches for the cardboard box in front of her. A tube of paint falls out of her coat sleeve)

Cassie: I can explain that.

(Cassie quickly scoops up the tube. That motion makes her coat swing around her body. Several brushes and two more tubes of paint spill out of her pockets. Naomi raises her eyebrows.)

Cassie: (Throwing up her hands) Oh, come on, I'm an artist! Can't I get a freebie from the shop now and then?


(The failed first flight. Cassie and Jack discuss their potential as birds)

Cassie: As for you…you'd be a mockingbird. Your specialty is annoying people.

Jack: Hey!

Cassie: Am I wrong? Are you admitting that you're bad at something?

Jack: I think I'd be one of those white peacrocks, you know? (Realizes his mistake and snorts) Oops.

Cassie: (Laughing) Peacrocks!


(Cassie visiting the Crosleys. Jerry is making pancakes)

Jerry: Cassie! You're right on time.

Cassie: It's a meal made by you and Emma both; of course I'm going to be on time."

Jerry: I am a pretty good cook, if I do say so myself. And yes, these are chocolate chip.

Cassie: Great. Almost done?

Jerry: Just one more…(He dramatically flips the last pancake in the pan; but one side of it is still raw batter. The pancake hits the ceiling, batter side up, and sticks) Shoot!

Cassie: (Chuckling, looks off camera at the crew) Can we get some help cleaning up?


(Cassie visiting the Crosleys. They've sat down to brunch)

Cassie: I met an unusual guy recently. We've gotten pretty close, and…

Jerry: Hold it. Are you telling us you have a boyfriend? Do I need to have a talk with this kid? Am I going to need my crowbar?

Emma: Knock it off, Jer.

Jack: Yes, please, knock it off.

(Emma, Jerry and Cassie flinch and look up. The camera pans up to find Jack perched on the ceiling light.)

Jack: I didn't sign up for crowbars. Protect me, Emma!

(Emma and Jerry chuckle. Cassie rolls her eyes)


(In Cassie's apartment, on discovering the strange winter weather patterns popping up. The window bangs open)

Jack: (Sticks his head out the window to yell at the wind) Will you cut that out!

(The wind continues to blow, howling in Jack's ears.)

Jack: Really? You're gonna throw a tantrum? Whatever you're mad about, can't you say it when we're not filming?

Cassie: (Puts a hand over her eyes and shakes her head) First he talks to the wind. Now he's arguing with it.


(The belief globe chimes in Jack's pocket. He pulls it out, and it releases gold sparks)

Jack: (Taps the globe with one finger. Nothing happens. He taps it several more times, and then remembers what he's actually supposed to do. He sends his winter magic into the globe, but uses too much. The magic zaps from his finger and freezes the globe) Whoops. (Looking up) It'll still work once it thaws…right?


(Ice skating scene)

Cassie: I think I'm going to try something.

(She tries to turn on the ice, and executes the move perfectly)

Cassie: Oh…

Jack: Cassie, you're supposed to fall.

Cassie: That's the best part of this. I was trying to mess up.

Jack: (Grinning) You can't mess up even if you try. You're just too good.

Cassie: And you're a cheese ball.

Director: All right, you two can flirt later. Let's do another take.


(Waking up to go to the North Pole. Cassie is curled up under her blankets, eyes closed. Jack approaches her, his back to the camera)

Jack: (Shaking Cassie's shoulder) Cass? (No response) Cass. You need to get up.

Cassie: (Rolling over) Don't wanna.

Jack: Cassie, come on. Don't make me do this the hard way.

(Jack goes to the foot of the bed and sends cold air under the blankets. Cassie bolts upright, gasping)

Cassie: I am so going to get back at…(chokes back a laugh) get back at you…oh for crying out loud…(breaks into helpless laughter)

(Jack turns to face the camera, and we see that he is wearing a fake mustache and glasses)


(First time at the North Pole)

(Jack and Cassie appear out of a portal. They both cry out as they fall to the floor)

Cassie: (Glaring at Jack) How hard can it be? Too hard for you to handle, apparently.

Jack: (Grumbling) Shut up.

(Jack and Cassie stand up and look around, but someone is missing)

Jack: (Muttering) Where is he?

Cassie: (Playing along) Who?

(Jack turns to the yetis working in the background)

Jack: Has anyone seen North?

(The sound of humming issues from a hallway, quickly getting louder. North appears from the hallway, trailed by several elves. He is carrying a tray of cookies, and wearing an apron with the words "I love my reindeer" printed on it)

North: (Speaking to the elves) You make good cookies, but not great ones. The secret to great baking is…

(He trails off as he realizes he has company. He looks at Jack and Cassie, whose mouths are hanging open, and then looks at the camera)

North: Oh, we are rolling?

(Jack and Cassie burst out laughing, tears streaming from Jack's eyes. Cassie pulls out her phone and snaps a picture of North)

North: (Chuckling sheepishly) Well…does anyone want a cookie?


(A hole opens up under Cassie. Bunny pops up out of the hole, and his head collides with Cassie's feet. They both shriek, and fall to the floor as the hole closes)

Cassie: Bunny!

Bunny: Sorry! Aimed the tunnel wrong. (He rubs the back of his head) Ēostre, that hurt.

Director: Cut! Let's try that again.


(At the North Pole)

Bunny: North, I have a bone to pick with you. You need to keep a closer eye on your reindeer. What do you do with the bloody beasts, let them run loose until Christmas Eve? They've gotten into my burrow again, and they're trampling everything!

Jack: What's the matter, Bambi; can't handle a Thumper or two? (He sees the others holding back laughter) What?

Cassie: I'm pretty sure Bunny doesn't have antlers.

Jack: (Frowns in confusion. Realization hits. He snorts.) Oh my god. (He starts laughing, shortly joined by the others)


(A hole opens up under Cassie's feet. Bunny pops up a few feet to her right. But the hole isn't closing fast enough. Cassie falls down it with a scream)

Bunny: Blimey!

(He dives into the hole after Cassie. A few seconds later there are two grunts)

Bunny: (Voice muffled down in the tunnel) Lucky I can make my tunnels into dead ends, eh, Cassie?

Cassie: (In a flat voice) That is not what I'm thinking right now.

Bunny: Simmer down. I'll get you out of here.


(Viewing Cassie's memories)

Cassie: Let's do this.

(Cassie steps forward, and puts a hand on the crystal. The crystal pulses, and then goes dark with a series of pops.)

Tooth: What happened?

Jack: I think it's broken.

Cassie: How do you fix a magic crystal? Do you call a mechanic?

North: No mechanic is touching my crystal!


(Something is banging hard on Cassie's front door. Cassie grabs her baseball bat and flings the door open)

Cassie: AAAHH…

(Her scream trails off as she finds a yeti standing on her doorstep instead of Naomi. She lowers the baseball bat)

Cassie: (sighs) Hey, Phil. You looking for Jack?

(Phil makes a few garbled sounds)

Cassie: Well, he's not in here. Try the lunchroom.

(Phil makes a few more noises that sound like a thank you, and stomps off set with his fists clenched)

Cassie: (shakes head) Wonder what Jack did this time.

(Naomi comes running on set)

Naomi: (panting) I'm so sorry! I didn't realize we were filming this scene. What'd I miss?

Cassie: Tell you later. Let's reset.


(First take of this scene. Jack is in Cassie's living room, latching the window. Cassie walks in, dressed up for the party)

Cassie: Hello, Jack.

(Jack's face goes blue, twice as dark as the blush-simulating makeup on his cheeks. He stares at Cassie for much longer than necessary before managing to speak)

Jack: Wow. (Clears throat) Uh…what's my line again?

(Naomi sticks her head into the room, smirking)

Naomi: I knew he wouldn't have to fake being speechless.


(Jack sits in a chair backstage, flipping through a magazine. Now and then he marks the corner of a page with frost. He is almost to the end when—)

Fangirl: Jack!

(Jack drops the magazine and finds a horde of fans coming towards him. He panics and runs for it)

(On set. Cassie and Naomi are in Naomi's room, talking about Cassie's past)

Cassie: But, hopefully I will get my powers back.

Naomi: How are you going to do that?

Cassie: Well, we're just getting started, but—

(Jack runs onstage)

Jack: HELP! THEY'VE FOUND ME!

Naomi: Who?

(The horde of fans bursts onstage)

Fans: JACK!

Jack: HELP!

(Cassie and Naomi share a horrified look)

Cassie: Jack, just fly away!

(With that reminder, Jack takes to the air, going up until he nearly hits the ceiling. But the fans are persistent. They climb on props, knock over furniture, and form human ladders in an effort to reach Jack)

Cassie: Who let the fandom in here?! (She sees one fanboy take a flying leap off a set piece, grabbing hold of Jack's ankle before he manages to shake him off) Hey, leave him alone! Don't make me go all moon spirit on you!

Naomi: SECURITY!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
