== Transcript ==
(The episode starts by taking place outside the driveway of the Griswell residence as it zooms in closer. Meanwhile, Maraya is seen walking to her house until she gets there)
(Doorbell rings)
(The setting changes to the inside of the house where Ms. Carolyn is walking to open the door)
Ms. Carolyn: Why, hello, Maraya. Welcome back.
Maraya: Thank you, Ms. Carolyn.
(While Maraya is walking to make herself comfortable, Ms. Carolyn shuts the door back. Setting changes again to another area of the living room where Maraya is sitting on the couch)
Ms. Carolyn: I’m glad you came here now, Maraya. It’s supposed to be raining later.
Maraya: Oh.
Ms. Carolyn: By the way, I want to show you something.
Maraya: What is it?
(She pulls her left short leg up a little bit to show her that she is wearing a band-aid)
Ms. Carolyn: This is what I want to show you.
(Maraya looks at it closer)
Maraya: But, it’s just a band-aid, Ms. Carolyn. Why do you want me to look at your band-aid?
Ms. Carolyn: Because I want to tell you how I had to wear it.
Maraya: Okay, tell me how.
Ms. Carolyn: It all happened earlier while I was gardening. 
(The scene changes to a flashback in her imagination)
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): It all started when I was in my garden, getting the flowers out of their pots and arranging them to make a flowerbed.
Maraya (not seen): But how did you get injured while you were gardening?
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): Well, a cat that belonged to another neighbor walked up to me.
(Cat meows)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Aw, I forgot how much I love cats. (laughing)
(While she is petting the cat, it meows loudly and hisses at her)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Goodness, you don’t have to be mean to me like that, cat.
(She realizes that it had a collar as she looks at it)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Well, it looks like that you already have an owner because you’re wearing a collar.
(She thinks for a second)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Wait a second, I think this is one of the neighbors’ cats.
(Cat meows again)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Sorry, but I can’t keep you because you already have an owner.
(Cat meows sadly)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): You’ll have to skedaddle out of here because I have some work to do.
(The cat cuddles with her for a little bit while it is purring)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): I understand that you want me to keep you, but I can’t. Now, let me continue on my work.
(The cat walks away sadly for a bit but then turns around to watch her working on the garden)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): (humming)
(The cat runs to where she is working)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): (continues humming)
(Eventually, the camera is pointed at her closer until she feels something scratch her leg)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Ah!
(She gets back up as she is rubbing the little scratch that was on her leg. The scene changes to where she is cleaning the wound and sees that it’s bleeding)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Oh, no, my wound’s actually bleeding.
(She unwraps the band-aid so she can put it where her scratch is located)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): There. And now I know that I should be careful with another neighbor’s cat.
(She gets up from the couch to walk away. The flashback ends and changes back to the normal setting)
Maraya: Cool. I mean, I feel bad for you, Ms. Carolyn.
(She kisses her wound)
Ms. Carolyn: Aw, thank you, Maraya.
Maraya: No problem. (sighs)
(She walks away from her to go upstairs)
(Footsteps, door shuts)
Ms. Carolyn: Gosh, Maraya must be feeling really bad for me.
(She looks up at the ceiling. Meanwhile, the setting changes to the bedroom as the camera zooms out on her)
Maraya: I wish I can have a band-aid on my leg, too, just like Ms. Carolyn. But how?
(She thinks for a few seconds until she has got an idea)
Maraya: I know, I can pretend to hurt myself, and then I can use Ms. Carolyn's red lip gloss so she'll know I'm bleeding. (stands up on bed) Okay, here I go.
(She bounces on her bottom)
Maraya (not seen): Ow!
Ms. Carolyn: Oh, no, I think Maraya got hurt. (gets up) I'm coming, Maraya!
(While she is running, the setting changes to the bedroom again)
Maraya: Ms. Carolyn heard me! Now to use the red lip gloss, and quick!
(Maraya uses the red lip gloss to make fake blood from her left knee to her shin and then puts her pant leg back down)
Ms. Carolyn: What happened, Maraya?
Maraya: Well, I was going to get off the bed to get some water, and then I tripped over something that was on the floor.
Ms. Carolyn: Oh, dear, that's not good. Let's check to see if you have any wounds.
(When she pulls up her pant leg, she sees that she is bleeding)
Ms. Carolyn: Oh, Maraya, look at your knee, it's bleeding! And also, it bled so much that it's running down your shin.
Maraya: I know, and it hurts really bad.
Ms. Carolyn: Stay calm, Maraya, I'll go get something to clean up that wound, and then I'll put a band-aid on your knee.
(Once she walks away, Maraya smiles)
Maraya (in her own head): Yes. It worked, and now, I'll be getting a band-aid just like Ms. Carolyn.
(Ms. Carolyn comes back with a little white cloth to clean the lip gloss on her knee)
Ms. Carolyn: You were very brave when you hurt yourself like that.
Maraya: I was?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, you were.
(She picks up the band-aid to unwrap it so she can put it on her knee)
Ms. Carolyn: There you go.
Maraya: Thanks, Ms. Carolyn, I feel a lot better now.
Ms. Carolyn: I’m glad to hear that, but you know what will make it even better?
Maraya: What?
Ms. Carolyn: A big bowl of chocolate ice cream all because of your bravery.
Maraya: Wow.
Ms. Carolyn: Go lie down on our bed while I get you some ice cream. I’ll be right back.
(She walks away)
Maraya (in her own head): Yes! I’m luckier than Ms. Carolyn because I got a band-aid and I’m going to have ice cream. (speaks out loud) I’m going to do it again, but with a red marker first, and then, I can put on some more lip gloss.
(She gets out a red marker to make a tiny line on her elbow. Meanwhile, it changes to the kitchen where she is about to take the bowl of ice cream upstairs. The camera points at the bedroom door when a knock is heard)
(Door knocking)
Ms. Carolyn: Ice cream’s served.
Maraya: Wow, thanks, Ms. Carolyn. I’m so glad to have you help me.
Ms. Carolyn: You’re welcome.
(When she is about to eat her ice cream, Ms. Carolyn stops her)
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): Stop, Maraya!
Maraya: What, Ms. Carolyn? Can’t you see that I’m trying to eat my ice cream?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, but look at your elbow. It’s bleeding, too.
Maraya (gasps): Oh, no!
Ms. Carolyn: I don't know how that happened, but it looks like I have to clean it.
(Instead of her frowning, she smiles a bit. The scene changes to where Ms. Carolyn is seen cleaning it)
Ms. Carolyn: There, all clean.
(She unwraps another band-aid to put on her elbow)
Ms. Carolyn: Once again, you were very brave, Maraya, and now, here's your ice cream.
Maraya: Yay!
Ms. Carolyn: Hope you feel better!
Maraya: Ah. 
(She continues eating her ice cream until it changes again to where she is done)
Maraya: Ah, that was good, and now, I'm going to put another little scratch on my face.
(She gets out the red marker again to mark another one but on her face. The setting changes to the kitchen where Ms. Carolyn is at the sink)
Maraya: I'm done, Ms. Carolyn.
Ms. Carolyn: Thank you, Maraya.
(After she puts her spoon and bowl in the sink, she turns around to see Maraya with another scratch)
Ms. Carolyn (surprised): Huh? 
Maraya: What? What happened, Ms. Carolyn?
Ms. Carolyn: You have a tiny scratch on your face.
Maraya: Oh, no, not again. I hope I'm not catching a certain illness.
Ms. Carolyn: Me, either. Come on, back to the bedroom. Or, wait, maybe I can do it in here since it's not bleeding like your other injuries.
Maraya: Okay.
(She gets out another band-aid to put on her face)
Ms. Carolyn: There you go, and now I'm hoping that you get no more injuries.
(Door shuts)
Mr. Danny: Hi, ladies, thank goodness I came back in time. It’s going to storm in any minute.
Ms. Carolyn: We know, dear.
Mr. Danny: (chuckling)
(He then notices something different with Maraya the next second)
Mr. Danny: Whoa, what happened to you, Maraya?
Ms. Carolyn: Maraya’s been having many accidents today. She has bled twice on her knee and elbow and now also has a tiny scratch on her cheek.
Mr. Danny: Whoa, you must’ve been very brave, Maraya. How did you do it?
Maraya: Oh, it was easy. I just used Ms. Carolyn’s red lip gloss so I would pretend that I was bleeding.
Ms. Carolyn (shocked and upset): You did what?!
(The scene changes to where they are both outside while it is storming)
Ms. Carolyn: Maraya, you’re not supposed to be playing with my lip gloss. Why did you even want to be bleeding?
Maraya: Because I want to be like you. I was jealous.
Ms. Carolyn: I know you felt jealous of me, but still, you shouldn’t be using my lip gloss to make pretend injuries. (not seen) Injuries are meant to be taken seriously.
Maraya: I know. I’m sorry, Ms. Carolyn. I won’t do it again.
Ms. Carolyn: That was nice of you to do that, but I’m afraid it’s too late for apologies now.
Maraya: What do you mean it’s too late?
Ms. Carolyn: What I mean by that is that you should get a punishment. And I know the perfect one so you can learn once and for all.
Maraya: Which is?
Ms. Carolyn: You’ll feel it. Walk up in front of me.
(Maraya walks up a little in front of her)
Ms. Carolyn: Good. Now, do you want a surprise?
Maraya: Yeah!
Ms. Carolyn: Okay, then turn around.
(Maraya turns around, but in the meantime, she feels a big push on her back)
Maraya: Ah!
(She falls on the ground)
Maraya: (crying)
(She gets up from the ground and runs back to the house. Scene changes again to where they are all back in the house)
Mr. Danny (not seen): Ouch, look at that big wound you have, Maraya.
Maraya: I know, and I didn’t even fake it.
Mr. Danny: I see. Now, let’s go clean up that wound of yours and then you can get a band-aid.
(He gets out a cotton ball to put some rubbing alcohol on it so he can clean it up)
Mr. Danny: You did very well, Maraya. Here’s your band-aid.
(He places the band-aid on Maraya’s knee)
Maraya (smiles): Thank you, Mr. Danny!
(She gets up to run to Ms. Carolyn)
Maraya: Look, Ms. Carolyn! I’m just like you now.
Ms. Carolyn: Well, look at that. Now we both have one.
Maraya: Yeah, and you know what? I should’ve just been myself. Just because you or me have a little injury doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t stop what we’re doing. Isn’t that right, Ms. Carolyn?
Ms. Carolyn: That’s right, and I’m sorry for pushing you down. I just got really mad.
Maraya: That’s okay, and I’m sorry for playing with your lip gloss. Will you forgive me?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, Maraya, I forgive you.
(They hug each other)
(Thunder rumbling)
Ms. Carolyn: Sounds like it’s about to rain. We better stay inside for safety.
Maraya: Yeah, let’s do.
Both: (laughing)
Mr. Danny: (laughing along)
All: (laughing)
(After they all stopped laughing, the scene fades out to an end)
