Lying and Gossip on Paper: Part 2

Later on, in the hallway, the ToonSchool gang had met up to discuss what to do about the Snobs and their paper.

"Okay, this has got to stop," Lisa said. "We must do something about the Snob's paper."

"Thank you Captain Obvious," Tony said. "Any suggestions?"

"We could fill their lockers with cement?," Lilo suggested.

"No," Lisa said.

"I could kick their Snobbish butts every single day until they stop?," Buttercup suggested.

"No," Baljeet said.

"Blast them into outer space?," Jimmy suggested.

"No."

"Lock them in the zoo?," Bubbles suggested.

"No."

"Force them to listen to Billy's singing," Ash suggested.

"No."

"Throw them off Hoover Dam?," June suggested.

"No!"

"Bury them alive?," Danny suggested.

"No!"

"Keepa Fuka Leele Baba!," Stitch suggested. Everyone looked at him.

"ABSOLUTELY NOT!"

"Well, Bart didn't you say you had a plan," Lisa asked.

"Yeah, me and Tommy here," Bart replied.

"Yeah, and here he comes now!," Tommy said as he pointed. The rest turned and saw Sheldon walking up with an envelope in hand.

"Here you go, guys," Sheldon said handing Bart the envelope. "Got some juicy stuff in here."

"Good, here's your cash," Bart said as he paid Sheldon, who then left.

"What's that, Bart?," Danny asked.

"How we are gonna beat the Snobs."

"Yeah we had Sheldon follow them around with his camera and catch them doing embarrassing things," Tommy said as Bart removed the pictures from the envelope, and showed them to the gang.

The gang were astonished when they saw the pictures which included: Eustace sleeping with a brace for his overbite, Princess sleeping while sucking her thumb, Dash dressing his puppy in a sailor outfit, Brad taking ballet, Vicky making out with a poster of Justin Jake Ashton, and Mindy in a bunny suit.

"Wow, these are impressive pics," Baljeet said. "Sheldon's camera work is getting really good."

"We ought to promote him," Lisa said.

"Never mind that guys, we got dirt on the Snobs," Tommy tells them.

"I see," Tony said. "We tell them that if they don't stop it with all these bogus stories in the Syndicator…"

"We'll publish these real pictures in the Times," Daryl finished.

"Um, isn't that…," Baljeet started.

"Blackmail?," Lisa finished.

"That's the beauty of it, sis," Bart said. Lisa and Baljeet thought for a second. Sure these pics might stop the Snobs, but would it be worth stooping to their low?

"No, I don't wanna do it."

"Me neither," Baljeet agreed.

"Why not?," Bloo said. "It's a brilliant plan."

"And besides," Lilo added. "I thought you guys wanted to beat them."

"We do, but we don't want to stoop to their level to do it," Lisa said.

"That's why you weren't popular in school back in Springfield, Lis," Bart said. "You're too afraid to step into the bad side."

"So now what guys?," June said. "We're back to square one."

"I guess all we can do is watch them and see if they slip up somehow," Tony said.


Later on, at the main office, at Mickey's office, Mickey and Prickley were both talking to a construction worker in the performers office. Unknown to them, the Snobs were right near the door, taking pictures and listening in on the conversation.

"So then we head for this wall and BOOM!," the worker said. "And this this one, BOOM! And then, the real wreckage starts!"

Upon hearing this, the Snobs walked away, excited on their new story. They didn't know that there was more to be said in that conversation.

"And you'll be certain that the rest of the place will not be harmed," Prickley said.

"If any of it is, we'll pay you commission," the worker said.

"Well let's hope you don't have to," Mickey said.

Back with the Snobs, Vicky was already cooking up their newest story. Unknown to them, Tony, Daryl, Bart, and Danny, who had entered the office, saw them near Mickey's office and Danny turned them invisible to allow them to eavesdrop.

"I got it!," Vicky cackled. "Our biggest journalism breakthrough yet! Mickey and Prickley are planning to close down, and then tear down ToonSchool!"

The boys gasped in shock.

"No way!," Danny said.

"And then, an amusement park shall be built in it's place!," Eustace added in. The boys gasped even further? Mickey, tear down ToonSchool for an amusement park? It couldn't be true!

"An amusement park in place of this school," Mindy said. "Best idea ever!"

"Don't you think that's a little extreme?," Dash asked. "I doubt Mickey would really…"

"Who cares about that?," Vicky said. "This story will be so popular it'll blow those twerps and their cockamamie paper far out of the water, they'll have to shut it down forever. Come on guys, we have a story to print!"

The Snobs then walked off as the boys glanced at each other in shock.

"We gotta tell the others," Tony said. "Let's go!"


Back in the ToonSchool Times room, the boys had just finished telling the rest of the gang and staff what they'd heard.

"What?!," Gwen gasped.

"No way!," Phineas said in shock.

"Mickey close the school?," Trixie Tang asked.

"And tear it down for an amusement park?," Manny said.

"That could never happen," Ash protested.

"We know," Bart said. "But that's just what the Snobs think is gonna happen."

"Well, it is up to us to find the truth," Baljeet said.

"That's right," Lisa said. "Tony, Daryl, Baljeet, come with me. We're going to get Mickey and Prickley's side of the story."


At the end of the day in the parking lot of the school, Mickey and Prickley were heading to their cars to go home.

"Mr. Prickley, Mr. Mouse," a voice called out. They turned to see Tony Daryl, Lisa and Baljeet running up to them.

"Tony, what can we do for you guys," Mickey asked.

"We need to ask you a few questions for the school paper," Lisa said.

"Wait, are you guys with that new paper that's been spreading all these rumors around, and cost me a nickel?," Prickley asked.

"No, sir, that's the Snobs," Daryl said. "We're from the ToonSchool Times, aka the good paper. The honest paper."

"Good. Well what are your questions?"

"Is it true that ToonSchool is gonna be torn down?," Tony asked.

"And an amusement park's gonna be build in its place?," Baljeet finished.

"Huh? Tear down the school? What gave you kids that notion?," Mickey asked, stunned.

"Well the Snobs and us over heard you talking to a construction worker," Tony said. "Heard you saying that walls are going down. They think you're gonna have the school demolished and build a theme park in it's place."

"Well, we can say for sure, those delinquents are dead wrong," Prickley said. "We would never tear down ToonSchool, for anything."

"Then what's with all the 'walls going down' stuff?," Daryl asked.

"Well only some walls are going down," Mickey said. "Because more walls are coming up.

"Correct. We're not destroying the school, we're expanding it, building more classrooms and such."

"So…basically, the Snobs are totally wrong?," Baljeet said.

"You betcha," Mickey said. "And you can take that from two very reliable sources, kids."

"Well then we gotta quote you," Tony said as the four took out notepads. "Do you mind?"

"Of course not."

The kids wrote down everything and thanked Mickey and Prickley for their help.

"Come on guys, back to the presses!," Lisa said. "We've got a story to print."


Back in the ToonSchool Times office, once the quartet had returned with their story, the staff immediately set to work: typing, clipping, pasting, copying and printing out the new paper, whose headline had a picture of the school on it, and now said: SCHOOL STAYING PUT: PRINCIPAL AND VP DISPROVE SNOBS CLAIMS!

"Well that's a wrap, we did it!," Tony said at the end as he tied the papers into a bundle. "Let's go home, Dar."

"Right behind you," Daryl said. "Tomorrow the Snobs are gonna get scooped with the real story!"

"And it's all thanks to you guys," Lisa said.

"And you guys too."

"Right," Baljeet said. "Now let us lock up. We have a big day tomorrow."


The next day, in the school cafeteria, the gang and the Times' staff had gotten there first and were passing out copies their paper to all the other students in the school, who immediately started reading it and getting the truth. Soon, as if right on cue, the Snobs entered the lunchroom with their paper shouting as Mindy shouts, "Extra, EXTRA! Read all about it! TOONSCHOOL'S BEING TORN DOWN FOR A NEW THEME PARK! Only in the Snob Syndicator! Come on, read all about it!"

But this time, nobody clamored around the Snobs and paying for their papers, which puzzled them.

"Dude, did you not hear what she just said?," Brad said. "The school's coming down and a theme park is going up!"

"That's not what it says in this paper," Chuckie Finster said, holding a copy of the ToonSchool Times.

"Give me that!," Princess said as she snatched the paper and she and the Snobs read it and were shocked at what it was. "Mickey and Prickley say we're liars? You people actually believe this load of crud!"

The students all voiced there agreement as Tony, Daryl, Lisa and Baljeet approached the Snobs.

"Nobody believes anything in your paper anymore," Daryl said.

"Yeah, the Snob Syndicator has been totally discredited as of today," Lisa said with a grin.

"We'll just see about that, twerps," Vicky said as she shouted. "Extra, EXTRA! Price reduced! Only 3 cents now! Jenny Wakeman has webbed feet! Exclusive photos!"

"Oh, get lost, ya jerks!," Buford shouted. "No more lies, Vicky! No more lies!"

Everyone in the cafeteria started chanting, "No more lies!" as the Snobs could only look on.

"Geez what's the big deal with these guys?," Dash said.

"I know," Vicky said. "We just wanted to publish some good juicy stories that dug deeper than the truth."

"Looks like you guys pushed the truth too far, Vicky," Tony said.

"Oh drat it!"

The Snobs then took their papers and left, leaving the gang and Times staff to pass their out again.

"Extra, extra," Baljeet said. "Step right up for the ToonSchool Times, the school's one, true headlining experience."


Several days later, the staff was once more at work for a new edition.

"Well, we've got another wonderful issue going on here," Tony said.

"You bet we do," Baljeet said. "Now we just need the weat–"

"Here's the weather report," Vicky said as the Snobs all entered the room. After being discredited, the Snobs had been forced to shut down the Syndicator, and taking pity on them, Lisa and Baljeet decide to let Vicky, Brad and Mindy back on the Times, along with Dash, Eustace, and Princess. Only this time, the Snobs were all stuck working the weather reports, the one thing everyone knew they couldn't "juice up" with bogusness.

"So how's today's forecast?," Lisa asked.

"Sunny and 70 degrees," Eustace drolled.

"And tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow will be cloudy with increasing winds," Princess said. "And then, a giant meteor will block out the sun, casting earth into complete and total darkness! Hail and blizzards will buffet us to no end…and all will be doomed."

"Princess!," everyone said.

"What? Just trying to give it some extra juice."

"Facts, Princess," Daryl said. "We need facts. That's what a good paper is all about."

"You said it," Baljeet agreed. "Okay, everyone, a deadline is coming, let's put this paper to bed!"

With that the staff of the ToonSchool Times got back to work on the next exciting issue.
