10 Years Later, megastar popstar Tori Vega wakes up in her bright & sunny Los Angeles Hollywood penthouse, listening to Do My Thing by Erika De Casier.
She looks in the mirror and does her makeup and style routine for the day.
She then goes to the living room where she sees her roommates Cyrus and Liv making and eating breakfast
Tori
Hey guys
Liv
Girl i know it's Saturday but sleeping till 10am is something….!
Tori
B*tch last weekend you slept until 1. Don't come for me
Liv then starts murmuring and Tori and her begin to argue
Cyrus (making eggs)
Ay aye let's cut it out.
Cyrus
Tors you had a concert last night so 10am is understandable.
Liv
An ass one at that (under her breath)
Cyrus
And Liv you stayed up all night. 1pm is early with yo sleep headed ass
Liv
oKay burnt eggs
Tori
can we please just eat breakfast…, I have a big tour next weekend.
Cyrus
Girl… a high school reunion is not a tour
Liv
Right
Tori
It's a tour to the past… I was a nobody and now I'm a star. It was all cause of Hollywood Arts they made me a star!
Liv and Cyrus look confused but agree a bit
Liv
A school with insane teachers, weirdo kids, violent acts is not no dam star making school.
Cyrus
Look Tori we're happy for you.
Tori
Thank you! Cy….
Liv
Gurl dam! She said WE
Tori
Don't you have a date at 12? Get ready babe…
Liv
I knew you liked me….
Tori
the only person who likes you is Michael.
Liv
Not you being jealous I'm going to a 6 star restaurant in Beverly while yo single ass stays here on the couch???
Tori
Look I have a man…
Cyrus
HAD a Man. Cameron broke up with you
Liv
Tors look, it's been a year… you need to get back out there. In this city
Cyrus
Look I have a friend, I'll text you his number and you guys can go out for a date.
Tori hesitates
Cyrus
Enjoy your day… you should have fun this summer!
Cyrus and Liv then leave and go outside for some fresh air while Tori looks lost
Tori posts a tweet on her 8 million followers TheSlap page
"Hey y'all, epic rich kid disco LED beach party in Beverly tonight, giving a thank you to Hollywood Arts which was a performing arts school that made me who I am today. Hoping to see some idiots I haven't seen in over a decade. Thank you and it's time to pay it forward (heart emoji)."
INT. - BEVERY HILLS - EVENING
Liv and her boyfriend Michael are having a romantic dinner in the beautiful city
Liv
Are you coming to Tori's party tonight?
Michael
Fuck no. a bunch of kids reuniting after 10 years seems lame and cheap to me
Liv
It seemed that way to me as well but it's gonna be lit. And that's my girl
Michael
And you're my girl. So sure I'll pull up
Liv
Well it's 5 and it starts at 8 so I better get ready…
Michael and Liv share a romantic kiss before Liv leaves
Michael has an enraged look on his face
Michael pulls out his phone and reads Tori's tweet
Michael
You fucking slut. I'll see you tonight…..
Liv is walking until she bumps into someone
Liv
WHAT THE FUCK WATCH IT YOU-
Liv is almost speechless when she sees it's Beck Oliver
Liv
Holy shit your so hot- I mean uh
Beck laughs
Liv
Your Beck?
Beck
Oliver?
Liv nods in yes
Beck
How'd you know? I only have 6 million followers on TheSlap…
Liv
Your old friend Tori? She's my roommate
Beck
Ohhhh Holy Shit Tori? I haven't seen her since we graduated
Liv
Did you hear about her party tonight?
Beck looks confused
Beck
Party? What party?
Liv
Don't tell me you don't follow her on TheSlap?
Beck
I completely forgot about her…
Liv
Dam… asshole vibes (sassy)
Beck
It's not just me! Everybody else has also
Liv looks stunned
the exchange goes into a moment of silence before Liv finally talks
Liv
Nobody remembers Tori?
Beck
I mean no honestly we were friends but after we went our separate ways for college it all just died…
Liv
She's having a fucking Hollywood Arts reunion party in 3 hours and nobody from Hollywood Arts remembers her?
Beck
Oh sh*t…
Liv panics
Beck
Okay look, me & Andre & Jade stayed in touch so I'll just text them… 4 people is cool right?
Liv
Wait Jade West? As in Friday Addams
Goth girl Jade West?
Beck laughs
Liv
And Andre Harris? As in global sensation music star fucking Andre????
Beck
Yes I get it… we're all famous but it's not about that right now
Liv
Look I have to go and get ready… the party is at 16 sweet, Burbank Park. I hope to see you guys there or else Tori will be livid.
Liv runs away while Beck looks sad
Beck calls Jade first
INT. - NETFLIX STUDIOS - EVENING
Jade is shooting a scene for her Friday series (parody of Wednesday)
Director
CUT! The bell rings and everyone stops acting as jade gets a call
Director
Jade-
Jade
It'll only take a second (walking away)
Jade picks up the phone
Jade
Hey B. I'm shooting right now can I call you back tonight?
Beck
Jade! This is important
Jade
Okay uh… what's up?
Beck
It's about Tori.
Jade looks shocked but doesn't buy it
Jade
Sure… now what's really up?
Beck
I'm being serious! Not just tori our old friends…
Jade starts feeling nauseous
Jade
You mean Cat- Robbie-
Beck cuts her off
Beck
YES EVERYONE!
Jade
HOLY SHIT WHAT's GOING ON?
Beck
Tori is hosting a reunion party and expects everyone from Hollywood Arts to show up…
Jade
But I'm in Santa Monica how the f*ck do you except me to be there on time? Wait what time even is the party
Beck
8pm.
Jade
Ok it's only a 30 minute drive why am I freaking…
Beck
Because this is in the big part of LA it'll take you 4 hours.
Jade
Sh*t and I'm filming right now!
Beck
Look we have to go or else this will break Tori's heart, her roommate said this is so special for her and she's been counting down the days for a month….
Jade hesitates thinking about her choice….
Director walks in and jade is startled
Director
Jade! We have to get back on set come on!
Jade is hesitant and doesn't know what to do
The Director starts getting loud and aggressive
Director
JADE!
Jade then starts having an anxiety/panic attack
Beck
Jade hello?
Director
Jade?
Jade unbuttons her dress and is gasping for air
Beck gets worried
Beck
JADE???
The line goes dead
Beck
JADE!!!!!!!!!!
INT. - TORI'S LUXURY AND POOL BEACH HOUSE PARTY - NIGHT
The Party is full on blasting with over 800 people dancing and vibing, drinking and having the time of their life while the Bluetooth blasts Death Bed by Powfu
the party is full swing and everyone loves it, especially the big ass pool.
Tori and some of her girly friends are at a table having drinks, dressed and slaying.
Cyrus notices the worried look on Tori's face
Cyrus
Girl! Chill the hell out I'm sure they'll be here.
Liv thinks about her and Beck's convo from earlier and feels worried.
Jasmine
Well b*tches how about we dive in that bubbling rich kid ass pool?
Kylie
I'm down
Kylie and Jasmine leave
Liv
Tors… cheer up
Tori snaps
Tori
ENOUGH! Shut the fuck up about this positive bullshit.
Liv and Cyrus are speechless
Tori
I invited the best people of my life over and none of them are here.
Even if it was just fucking Sinjin I would be happy.
Cyrus
Who the fuck is Sinjin?
Liv
Sounds like a gay scrawny prick-
Tori
He is.
Tori
Well at least not the gay part
INT. - SANTA MONICA MOUNTAINS - NIGHT
Beck and Andre are driving Jade to Hollywood while she lays sick in the backseat
Jade
I can't believe I passed out on set.
Beck
Everything's fine. Everyone gets nervous from time to time especially being put under pressure
Jade
This was NOT fucking nervousness it was a goddamn anxiety attack.
Andre
Look it's cool. Netflix said production can resume within 3 weeks
Jade (emotional)
I know it's just… i had that anxiety attack not because of having to choose between my friends and my career.
Beck and Andre get confused
Jade (depressed talking)
I had that anxiety attack because it felt like forgot where I came from and started.
WE all started in Hollywood Arts and within a year of graduating all those memories went down the toilet.
Andre
We know. Hollywood life is a fucking joke.
Jade
No it's not that. It's not a joke it's a goddam hell.
Ya know that scene in Bel Air where Jazz said that Los Angeles will try to make you forget who you are and where you came from is true. And we let it do that
The car goes into a silence as everyone realizes the depression going on.
Back at Tori's party she's getting depressed drunk while everyone else has a blast.
She is wasted and can barley even see.
Unknown Man
Hey. May I sit?
Tori
I can barley even see you (blurry)
Unknown Man
Good. You fucking dumb bitch
Tori
What???
The Man turns out to be Michael as he punches her super hard as it becomes a blackout.
30 minutes later Tori is woken up by party guests slumped on the ground covered in wine.
Tori groans and is wasted
Liv
Girl did you smoke too much weed or something?
Cyrus helps Tori up who can barley even walk
Tori
No-
Tori realizes what happened and is enraged and her blood begins to boil
Liv
Tori?
Cyrus?
Tori!!!
Tori is ignoring them and gets up on stage knocking one of the girls who's standing on there out.
The crowd gasps
Tori
WHO THE F*CK PUNCHED ME?
Party Guest
Huh???
Everyone is confused
Tori
One of you goddam idiots punched me. And I want to know who
Somebody in the crowd begins recording the whole incident on their phone
Tori
HUH??? Don't be scared now who the fuck did that sh*t.
I threw this party not for some fucking d*ckheads but for my friends!
FRIENDS I HAVE NOT EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT IN 10. DAMN. YEARS.
Tori begins pouring her heart out
The party gets super serious and Tori is mad until…
Beck, Andre and Jade walk in catching everyone's attention
Deja Vu by Easy McCoy begins playing in the background
Liv (sipping her drink)
You damn right it's deja vu….
The camera cuts to Tori walking back into the house pissed off and she bursts into tears because of what she's done
Suddenly, Jade, Beck & Andre walk in
Beck hugs Tori tight
After 5 minutes of silence, The three give Tori a blanket and some wine as they all drink.
Tori
I missed you guys.
The three smile
Tori
I'm guessing you heard-
Andre
Yeah. Everything
Jade
What's going on…
Tori
We have all went Hollywood…
Jade
Don't you mean Hell?
Tori looks up at Jade
Jade
I hate my life.
Beck
Me to.
Andre
Me three.
Robbie/Cat
Us four.
Tori gets shocked to see them but before she can even speak another surprise is there….
Trina (who moved to New York) walks in
Trina
Me 5.
Deja Vu by Easy McCoy begins playing as the camera fades.
the camera turns back on the next morning as Tori wakes up from her hellish sleep as usual in her bright & sunny penthouse.
Tori is frozen from the previous night, but after a few minutes of silence and deep thinking gets up and goes outside just starring at the beautiful Hollywood morning summer city.
Tori is broken and thinks of the lyrics to her Hollywood Arts audition song while giving herself a flashback to 13 year ago.
Andre
Hey, whatcha doin'?
Tori
Calling my mom to tell her I wanna go back to my old school.
Andre
Why?
Tori
'cause I don't like having black coffee in my hair!
Andre
Then I'll get you some cream and sugar.
Current Tori blushes remembering Andre's rizz.
Andre
Everything will be chill.
Tori
Hey, mom, I need you to...
Andre
Uh-um.
No.
Tori
Gimme back my mom!
Andre
You're gonna quit this school on your first day, just because of one mean girl?
Tori
It's not just her!
It's just...
I don't fit in here with...
All this.
The Entire talent and universe of Hollywood Arts flashes through Tori's brain.
"C'mon, this place isn't that different from other schools."
Tori
Oh yeah, like regular schools have improv classes with barefoot teachers (she flashes back to all the times with Sikowitz) and nerds with puppets (she flashes back to the stupid but funny times with Robbie and Rex) and bipolar cats and mean girls who make you bark like a dog?
Andre
Okay.
This school's not normal.
Tori
Really?
Andre
You're not normal either.
I've seen what you can do on stage.
(After every word Andre says Tori's whole pop star life and every performance she's ever done flashes before her eyes)
You're special.
You're fantastic.
You belong at this school.
Normal's boring.
Tori begins tearing up
The camera cuts to Tori hopping in her Ruby red convertible with no roof and drives through the city of Hollywood all the way to where it all began. Hollywood Arts
After a long drive, Tori opens and shuts the door to her car and looks at the school
Make it Shine by Victorious Cast begins playing in Tori's head and the background.
She flashes back to her walking in the doors in the opening credits looking at school
She takes a deep breath and walks in
she then meets Sikowitz getting off the bus with his bad class
Tori
Sikowitz?
Sikowitz is a bit of an old head now but is so happy to see tori
Sikowitz
Tori! (Hugging her)
It's been so long how you been?
Tori (a bit of depression)
Ya know… "Thriving"
Sikowitz
I know. You know what… (yelling) Ms Brewer, can you substitute my class I have some business to take care of
He and Tori then head to the Asphalt Café and sit down in the bright sun
Sikowitz
I've missed you. I've missed everyone. The class of 2010-2015 was my best and i mean it.
You guys taught me that just cause your a teacher doesn't mean you have to be hard and mean to your students…
You guys were so talented and I knew each and everyone of you had potential.
Now look, 10 years later you're all stars.
I can't even word how proud I am of every single one of you.
Tori tears up
Tori is speechless until Robbie, Trina, Jade, Cat, Beck, and Andre walk in.
Sikowitz begins tearing up
Beck
Erwin Sikowitz.
Andre
My man
Sikowitz daps up Beck, Andre & Robbie while giving the girls hugs.
They all sit down at the table and reunite.
Sikowitz
Ya know I was just telling Tori, I am so proud of your careers and the stars you've become.
The rest get disappointed faces knowing they hate their career
Andre
To be honest. We all hate the careers we have
Sikowitz is confused but mostly understands the Hollywood business
Jade
Being an actress gives me major anxiety.
Andre
Music is awesome and all but something hasn't been hitting and is missing these past few years.
Robbie
Being a director is tough when on set is hell.
Cat
Being a singer is all I dreamed of after I got my mental health fixed. But my star "friends" just make fun of me cause I used to be stupid.
Beck
I've torn my ACL, MCL, and Meniscus while racing.
Trina
And big surprise I never had a good career. Working at Skybucks right now.
Tori
And I'm living in a hell.
Sikowitz
I'm sorry to hear that guys.
Tori
don't be.
Beck
What we want is to start over.
Andre
Where it all began.
Sikowitz is confused until the realization comes
Sikowitz
You guys want to become teachers here at Hollywood Arts?
Everyone nods in agreement
Sikowitz
Look I have no problem with it but you can't
Everyone is confused
Tori
Why not?
Sikowitz
This school is basically ran by kids now. It's a dystopian nightmare that the kids tortured everybody with.
Jade
Huh???
Sikowitz
The school has only hired a few new teachers and kept most of the old ones. Since we're all getting old we have just been getting abused.
The Gang are shocked but still stand their ground.
Tori
You say new teachers.
Beck
We don't need that.
Trina
What the school needs is people who know the world of delinquents
Cat
People who know this school more than their own body!
They all stand up
Tori
Sikowitz. We know everything about this place.
Robbie
We were dealt with as kids
Jade
Especially me. It's time for us to pay it forward
Tori
You made our careers and now we're gonna save the school.
Sikowitz hesitates but ultimately agrees.
Sikowitz
Okay then. I'll see you guys Monday
Sikowitz walks away as Deja Vu by Easy McCoy plays.
The Gang set in that it's time to run it back, 10 years later.
