Outing Misbehavior (transcript)

"Outing Misbehavior" is the twelfth episode of the series "My Continued School Life".
==Description==
After recently misbehaving while being out with her family, she is sent to Ms. Carolyn's house to get advice from her. Ms. Carolyn decides to take Maraya out to some places to practice being on her best behavior. But every time they're at a place, Maraya ends up misbehaving so much that they have to go back home. While Maraya is punished, Mr. Danny comes in and tells her not to give up quite yet, as he has one more place for her to try again: a fancy restaurant. Will she pass the test for behaving well?
==Transcript ==
(The episode starts by taking place outside of Ms. Carolyn's house where Maraya gets out of the car to go inside her house. Setting changes to the inside of her house)
(Doorbell rings)
Ms. Carolyn: Why, hello, Maraya. 
Maraya: (sighs)
Ms. Carolyn: What's wrong, Maraya? Why do you look so sad?
Maraya: Can we go sit on the couch to talk about it?
Ms. Carolyn: Of course. Come on.
(She follows Ms. Carolyn to the couch. Scene changes to where they are sitting on the couch)
Ms. Carolyn: So, Maraya, why are you feeling so sad today?
Maraya: While I was out somewhere with my family, I misbehaved, which is the reason why they sent me to your house. (sighs) I wish I can learn how to be on my best behavior while I'm out so I won't get in trouble again.
Ms. Carolyn (thinking): Hmm...
(She gets an idea)
Ms. Carolyn: I know, how about if I can help you behave better?
Maraya: How are you going to do that?
Ms. Carolyn: I'll take you to some special places to help you become on your best behavior.
Maraya (gets up): You know what, Ms. Carolyn? That's a great idea!
Ms. Carolyn: So that means you're in the test?
Maraya: Yes, I'm so in! (runs away) Let's go!
Ms. Carolyn: All right, Maraya, I'm coming.
(She follows Maraya out of the house. The scene changes again to where they are in the trampoline park)
Maraya: What's this place, Ms. Carolyn?
Ms. Carolyn: It's a trampoline park. This big area is kind of like a bounce house.
(Camera points at the trampoline area and then zooms out)
Maraya: The trampoline park is for babies. Why do you even want me to go in there if I'm not a baby?
Ms. Carolyn: It's not only for babies, Maraya. It's for people of all ages.
Maraya: Even for the really old people like you?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, it's for the really old people like me, too. Well, what are you waiting for? Take off your shoes and go in there.
Maraya: Okay.
(She sits down to take both of her shoes off so she can go in the area. But in the meantime, she turns back around)
Maraya: Aren't you coming too, Ms. Carolyn?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, I'm coming, too, Maraya. Just give me a minute.
Maraya: Okay, Ms. Carolyn.
(She goes in the area to discover it)
Maraya: Wow, look at all the people in it! There's toddlers, teens, and even seniors! (starts jumping) Whee!
(Ms. Carolyn joins in with her)
Ms. Carolyn: See, Maraya? i told you it's fun.
Maraya: You're right, Ms. Carolyn. It is fun!
(She starts bouncing away on her own. Meanwhile, the camera points at a little girl who feels scared of the trampoline)
Maraya: Hey, little girl. Wanna bounce with me?
Little girl: I'm not sure. I've never bounced on a trampoline before.
Maraya: There's no need to be scared, little girl. Bouncing can be fun! I'll show you. You can bounce on your feet.
(She starts bouncing)
Maraya: Or you can pizzazz it a little by doing amazing tricks, like this.
(She bounces twice and then does a backflip)
Little girl: Wow!
Maraya: That's not all, though, because I've got more tricks to show you. Watch.
(She continues to show the little girl more tricks)
Maraya: Whee!
Little girl: Ooh! Ah.
(She stops bouncing)
Maraya: And now for my final trick.
(She backs up all the way and then runs to do some handsprings until she lands on the little girl)
Little girl: Ow!
Maraya: Oops, sorry!
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): Maraya!
Maraya: Uh oh.
Ms. Carolyn: Why'd you hurt the little girl, Maraya?
Maraya: I was showing her some of my gymnastics tricks until suddenly, I landed on her. I'm sure it was an accident because I apologized to her after I did something wrong.
Ms. Carolyn: I don't think it was an accident, Maraya. Now put your shoes on, we're leaving.
Maraya: Yes, Ms. Carolyn.
Little girl: I don't want to play with you anymore. You're too aggressive.
(She walks away from her and then she follows her out. The scene changes once again to where she and Ms. Carolyn are at the playground)
Maraya: Well, at least it's just us at the playground, so that way, I'll be less aggressive.
(Maraya's friends arrive at the playground)
Novalee, Erin, and Ashley: Hello, Maraya!
Maraya: Hello, everyone!
Novalee: Oh, can I swing with you, Maraya?
Maraya: Of course. Have a seat.
Novalee: Thank you, Maraya.
Maraya (gets up): Would you like me to push you on the swing?
Novalee: No, thank you, I can push myself, but anyway, thank you for asking.
Maraya: No problem.
(She gets back on the swing to push herself)
Maraya: Whee!
Novalee: Whee!
(They start laughing together while swinging until Maraya spots nobody on the slide)
Maraya: I'm gonna play on the slide.
Novalee: Okey dokey!
(She runs to play on the slide, but after she climbs to the top, she sees Erin on it)
Maraya: Hey, Erin, can I slide, too?
Erin: But I was here first. Go play on that slide.
Maraya: But that slide is for babies. Please let me go on the big slide.
Erin: Nope.
Maraya: (sighs)
(She starts thinking of an idea)
Maraya (thinking): Hmm...
(Camera zooms out when she talks to Erin)
Maraya: Hey, Erin, is that your favorite celebrity sitting on the bench?
Erin (gasps): Where?
(Maraya pushes Erin out of the way so she can slide)
Erin: Whoa!
(After Maraya slides down, Erin gets mad)
Erin: Maraya!
(She walks away from her)
Maraya: Sorry, Erin. Guess I didn't see you there. (thinking) Hmm...
(She runs to Novalee who's using the monkey bars)
Maraya: Hey, Novalee, can I use the monkey bars, please?
Novalee: But, Maraya, I was here first. Can't you wait till later to use them?
Maraya: No, I don't want to wait till later to use them, I want to use them now!
Novalee: Sorry, Maraya, but you have to wait your turn.
Maraya: (sighs)
(She starts thinking again)
Maraya (thinking again): Hmm...
(She starts talking to Novalee)
Maraya: Hey, Novalee, is that your sister waving at you?
Novalee: Where?
(Maraya gets on the monkey bars)
Novalee: Hmm, I don't see my sister anywhere. I guess I'll have to get back on the monkey bars while I wait. (turns around) Hey!
Maraya: Hey, Novalee, what's up?
Novalee: Maraya, I was using those.
Maraya: Sorry, Novalee, but you got off them, so I decided to use them.
Novalee: Maraya!
Maraya: By the way, let me show you some of my tricks.
(Novalee's eyes start tracking on Maraya)
Maraya: Look, I can skip one four times!
(Camera points at Novalee)
Maraya: Don't you think I'm a pro at the monkey bars, Novalee?
Novalee: Yeah, right.
(She walks away from her)
Maraya: Oh...
(Camera zooms into the swings)
Maraya: Guess I'm going to go back on the swings.
(She walks back to the swings, but when she is about to get on, Ashley speeds to it)
Maraya: Hey! Ashley, you can't do that.
Ashley: Yes, I can do it. It's a playground.
Maraya: But that's my swing. Can't you move to a different swing?
Ashley: Nope. How about if you can swing right next to me?
Maraya: But then I won't be able to see the whole playground.
Ashley: Oh, well. (starts swinging)
Maraya: Ugh! (to Ashley) Hey, Ashley, is that a solar eclipse up there?
Ashley: Wow! Where?
Maraya (snickering): Hee hee hee!
(She sneaks to the swing)
Ashley: That's not a solar eclipse in the sky. (turns around) Maraya, you've tricked me. (falls down) Oof!
Erin and Novalee: (gasps)
(They run over to Ashley who's lying on the ground)
Novalee: Ashley, are you okay?
Ashley: No, Maraya hit my face with a swing.
Novalee: Oh...
Erin: Ms. Carolyn, Ashley's face is hurting!
Ms. Carolyn: Oh, thank you for telling me, Erin. (bends over) Are you all right, Ashley?
Ashley: No.
Ms. Carolyn: Oh, dear, I see your face is bleeding. I better call 9-1-1.
(She calls for 9-1-1)
Dispatcher (over phone): 9-1-1, what's your emergency?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, my name is Carolyn Griswell and I'm calling because someone hit a teenage girl with a swing at the playground and her face is bleeding.
Dispatcher (over phone): Okay, we'll be right there. Please stay on the phone until we arrive.
Ms. Carolyn: Okay!
(Ambulance siren goes off)
Doctor: Hello, are you Mrs. Griswell?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, I am.
Doctor: All right, good. Now where's the patient?
Ms. Carolyn: She's right here.
Doctor: Okay.
Ms. Carolyn: Come on, Ashley, we're going to take you to the ambulance.
(She helps her up so they can go to the ambulance)
Erin: I'm coming with you, Ashley.
Novalee: Me, too.
(As soon as the doctor gets Ashley in the ambulance, she shuts the door so the ambulance can drive off)
(Ambulance siren goes off again)
Ms. Carolyn: Maraya, that was mean to hurt Ashley like that. Now she has to ride in the ambulance to go to the hospital.
Maraya: I know. Sorry, Ms. Carolyn.
Ms. Carolyn: You were meant to apologize to your friends, not me.
Maraya: Oh.
Ms. Carolyn: By the way, you got one more place to try to succeed at, and that place is the grocery store.
Maraya: Yay!
(It changes to where Maraya and Ms. Carolyn enter in a grocery store)
Ms. Carolyn: Now, Maraya, remember: This is a grocery store we've never been to before, so please be on your best behavior and not ask for any goodies.
Maraya: Okay, Ms. Carolyn.
(While they are shopping, the camera points and zooms into a freezer with boxes of ice cream)
Maraya (not seen): Ooh!
(The camera is zoomed out when Maraya turns around to show Ms. Carolyn)
Maraya: Ms. Carolyn, can we get some ice cream?
Ms. Carolyn: No, Maraya, remember? You're not supposed to ask for any goodies.
Maraya: But, Ms. Carolyn -
Ms. Carolyn: No buts. Now let's continue with our shopping.
(She follows Ms. Carolyn for a little but then runs back to the freezer to open the door and get some ice cream. Suddenly, she gets dragged away)
Maraya: Whoa!
(Scene changes again to where they are back)
Ms. Carolyn: Maraya, you have misbehaved a lot today. I don't know what's wrong with you. Now up to your room.
(Maraya walks upstairs to her room sadly. Setting changes to Ms. Carolyn's bedroom)
(Knocks on door)
Mr. Danny: Hey, Maraya, why are you in the bedroom all by yourself?
Maraya: I got in trouble twice for misbehaving while I was out today. First, my family, and now, Ms. Carolyn. I wish I can give up.
Mr. Danny: Don't give up quite yet, Maraya. There's one more place that you can try again in: a fancy restaurant.
Maraya: I don't think I'll ever pass the test, Mr. Danny, because I had three attempts and I failed all of them. Plus, Ms. Carolyn punished me.
Mr. Danny: When me and Carolyn were your age, we always acted up when we were with our parents, too.
Maraya: You did?
Mr. Danny: Yes. Whenever me and Carolyn acted up, we would get a spanking from our mothers as a punishment.
Maraya: Oh.
Mr. Danny: I remember the time I got in trouble, just like you. Listen.
(A flashback starts above his head)
Mr. Danny's mother (in flashback): Danny! You know you're not supposed to eat sweets without asking first.
Mr. Danny (in flashback): I know, mom, sorry.
Mr. Danny's mother (in flashback): It's too late to apologize now, and you've also disobeyed the rules, so that means you get a spanking.
Mr. Danny (in flashback): But, mom -
(She spanks him)
Mr. Danny (in flashback): Ow! Mom, why'd you do that?
Mr. Danny's mother (in flashback): You're 16, Danny. You should know why. Now go to your room.
Mr. Danny (in flashback): Yes, ma'am.
(When he walks away, the flashback ends)
Maraya: Oh, that's why you got in trouble: because you took a cookie without asking first.
Mr. Danny: Yeah.
Maraya: But you can eat as many sweets as you want now because you're old.
Mr. Danny (thinking): Um, yes, Maraya. That's true.
Maraya: What did Ms. Carolyn get in trouble for?
Mr. Danny: I'll tell you, right here.
(Another flashback starts but with Ms. Carolyn)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Perfect. Now I'll look as pretty as my mom.
(Door slams open)
Wanda (in flashback): Carolyn! You know better about not playing with my makeup. Why were you playing with it again?
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Because I want to look pretty like you.
Wanda (in flashback): Get up because it's spanking time.
(Wanda spanks Ms. Carolyn)
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Ouch! Mom, why'd you do that?
Wanda (in flashback): You should know why, Carolyn, you're 16. Now, go to the bathroom to wash all that makeup off and then go to your room.
Ms. Carolyn (in flashback): Yes, ma'am. (sighs)
(As soon as she walks away, the second flashback ends)
Maraya: So, is that why Ms. Carolyn got in trouble? Because she was playing with her mother's makeup?
Mr. Danny: Yes, Maraya.
Maraya: Gosh, I'm lucky that Ms. Carolyn didn't spank me, like she did before when I was folding all her clothes wrong.
Mr. Danny: You folded all her clothes wrong?
Maraya: Yes, remember?
Mr. Danny: Yeah, but she apologized to you afterward when we found out that you were the one who did all the housework to make our house sparkling clean.
Maraya: Yeah, maybe I should clean the house for you and Ms. Carolyn again. (walks away) I'll go get the vacuum cleaner.
Mr. Danny: Wait, Maraya, you don't have to clean the whole house for us again. That's only meant to do on Saturdays.
Maraya (gets out calendar): But it is Saturday. See?
Mr. Danny: Yes, but Carolyn and I have already cleaned the house. (scene zooms out) You see?
Maraya: Yeah, I see.
Mr. Danny: Anyway, sorry for changing the subject of our discussion about cleaning the house instead of talking about solving your problem.
Maraya: It's okay, you didn't mean it.
(Mr. Danny starts to smile again)
Mr. Danny: Like I was saying, Maraya, you shouldn't give up yet, because I want you to try again in order to get better. You see, practice makes perfect, and if you keep practicing, then you'll get better.
Maraya: You're right, Mr. Danny. Thanks!
Mr. Danny: You're welcome, darling. Now let me tell Carolyn about us going to that fancy restaurant for dinner.
Maraya (not seen): Mr. Danny, wait!
Mr. Danny: What now, Maraya?
Maraya: Ms. Carolyn might not believe in you if you tell her to take us all out for dinner.
Mr. Danny: She might, you'll never know until I tell you.
Maraya: Okay, go ahead, Mr. Danny, but I'm sure she's still going to say no because of what I've done.
(Setting changes to the living room until Ms. Carolyn hears footsteps coming down the stairs)
Ms. Carolyn: Ah, there you are, Mr. Danny. Where were you?
Mr. Danny: I was talking to Maraya upstairs in our bedroom.
Ms. Carolyn: Dear, why did you have to talk to Maraya? She's in trouble.
Mr. Danny: Honey, when she's in trouble, that means that she has a problem, not punished.
Ms. Carolyn: Oh, but I just wanted to help her behave better and she kept failing. I guess I'm a terrible helper.
Mr. Danny: No, you're not, Carolyn. You're an excellent helper to everyone, especially to your best friend, Maraya.
Ms. Carolyn (sighs): I guess you're right.
Mr. Danny: Anyway, would you like me to take you and Maraya to a fancy restaurant for dinner tonight?
Ms. Carolyn: No way! Not for after what she's done to me and her friends.
Mr. Danny: Carolyn, don't let Maraya give up yet, you should let her try again and again. And maybe I'll help you help Maraya get better.
Ms. Carolyn (thinking): Well, as long as you're helping me, then okay. I'll let Maraya try again.
Mr. Danny: Great!
Maraya (not seen): Mr. Danny!
Mr. Danny (gets up): I better see what Maraya wants.
(Setting changes back to the bedroom)
Mr. Danny: What is it, Maraya?
Maraya: We have to go to the hospital, now!
Mr. Danny: What happened?
Maraya: Ashley's face is bleeding really badly all because of me and we need to go as soon as possible.
Mr. Danny: Well, I suppose we can visit Ashley at the hospital after dinner.
Maraya: Yay! Well, come on, let's go!
Mr. Danny: (chuckling)
(He follows Maraya out of the bedroom. The scene changes once again to where they are in the fancy restaurant)
Mia: Hello, welcome to the Italian Garden. I'm Mia, your hostess. Now, follow me to your table for three.
(They follow Mia to their table until they get there)
Mia: Here's your table. Your waitress will be with you in a few minutes.
Ms. Carolyn: Okay, thank you.
(A waitress carrying a basket of breadsticks and menus comes by)
Bella: Hello, I'm Bella, your waitress. Now, can I get you started with something to drink?
Mr. Danny: Yes, a sweet tea, please.
Ms. Carolyn: A sweet tea for me too, please.
Bella: How about you, young lady?
Maraya: A soda, please.
Bella: Okay, your drinks will be coming in a few minutes.
(She walks away from them)
Ms. Carolyn: Maraya, do you know what you want to eat?
Maraya: Yes. How about you?
Ms. Carolyn: Yeah, I think so. How about you, Mr. Danny?
Mr. Danny: Yes, I know what I want, too.
Ms. Carolyn: Okay, now all we have to do is to wait for the waitress to come back with our drinks and then we'll be ready.
(Bella comes back with their drinks)
Bella: Here's your drinks. Now, are you all ready to order yet or no?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, we are.
Bella: All right, how can I take your orders?
Mr. Danny: I'll take the shrimp scampi, please.
Ms. Carolyn: I'll take the braised beef Bolognese with pappardelle, please.
Bella: And what would the young lady in pink stripes like?
Maraya: Lasagna, please.
Bella: Lasagna, okay. Your orders will be served in a moment.
(She walks away from them again)
Ms. Carolyn: Maraya, since me and Mr. Danny discussed about what you're going to do while you wait for your food to come, we decided to let you do this.
(She gets out some paper and crayons and gives them to Maraya)
Maraya: Paper and crayons? What for?
Ms. Carolyn: To help you do something while you're waiting so you won't misbehave again.
Maraya: Wow, thanks, Ms. Carolyn.
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): My pleasure.
(She opens the box of crayons to get out a black crayon and draw her picture. Scene changes to where she gets done with her picture)
Maraya: Done!
Ms. Carolyn: Wow, what's this?
Maraya: A picture of you, me, and Mr. Danny with our waitress. See? That's our waitress and that's us.
Ms. Carolyn: It's a great picture, Maraya. You did wonderful on it.
(Bella comes back with a cart of food)
Bella: Here are your orders: shrimp scampi.
Mr. Danny: That's me.
Bella: Braised beef Bolognese with pappardelle.
Ms. Carolyn: Oh, that's me.
Bella: And for the young lady, lasagna classico.
Maraya: Thank you, Mrs. Waitress.
Bella: Anytime. Bon appetit!
(She walks away with the cart so she can let them enjoy their food. Then, Maraya takes a bite of her lasagna)
Ms. Carolyn: How's your lasagna, Maraya?
Maraya: Yummy. This restaurant makes the best lasagna ever!
Ms. Carolyn: I'm glad to hear that.
(She also takes a bite of her food for herself. The scene changes again to where they are done)
Mr. Danny: That was good, Carolyn, thank you.
Ms. Carolyn: You're welcome, dear. (kisses Mr. Danny on cheek)
(Camera points at Maraya who is still eating and then gets done)
Maraya: Finished!
Ms. Carolyn: Wonderful!
(The waitress comes back with the cart)
Bella: Are you done with your orders, ladies and gentleman?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes.
(Everyone hands Bella their plates so she can put them on the cart)
Bella: Can I get you any dessert for tonight?
Ms. Carolyn: Well, Maraya?
Maraya: Yes, please!
Bella: Okay, what can I get for you, young lady?
Maraya: My favorite dessert.
Bella: Your favorite dessert? Well, what is your favorite dessert?
Maraya (thinking): Um...
Ms. Carolyn: I'll tell you. (whispering)
Bella: Oh, yes, we actually have that. Let me get it for you.
Ms. Carolyn: Maraya, since you've behaved here, I think you deserved to have some dessert.
Maraya: Yay! What did you tell the waitress to get for me, Ms. Carolyn?
Ms. Carolyn: Can't tell you, Maraya. It's a surprise!
Bella: Here you are, young lady: Your favorite dessert.
Maraya: Yay, chocolate cake! Thank you!
Bella: You're welcome. Enjoy!
(She walks away)
Maraya: Wow, look at the size of that piece of cake! It's as big as the chocolate cake we make at home.
Ms. Carolyn: Yeah, and look at all the layers of chocolate and vanilla icing on the cake. Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Maraya?
Maraya: What are you thinking of, Ms. Carolyn?
Ms. Carolyn: Since the cake has so many layers and is big, it's actually not a chocolate cake.
Maraya (not seen): Then what is it?
Ms. Carolyn: It's a chocolate brownie lasagna!
Maraya: A chocolate brownie lasagna? Wow! (takes a bite) And you also forgot that it's really delicious.
Ms. Carolyn: Oh, yeah, and it's also really delicious!
Maraya: (laughing)
(She takes another bite of the dessert)
Maraya: Mmm!
(She keeps eating the dessert until she is done)
Bella: Enjoyed your dessert, young lady?
(Maraya wipes her mouth and then answers her)
Maraya: Yes, it was the best chocolate brownie lasagna I've ever had.
Bella: Well, I'm glad to hear that.
Ms. Carolyn: And oh, madame, before you leave with the empty plate, I want you to look at something.
(She gives Bella the drawing)
Bella (not seen): Oh, what's this?
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): That's a picture of us. See, that's you and that's us.
Bella: Wow, I love it. You're a good artist.
Ms. Carolyn: It wasn't me who drew it, it was Maraya.
Bella: This is a really great picture of me and your friends, young lady. I'm going to put it on my bulletin board along with my other put-up drawings.
(Bella walks away with the drawing that she just put on the cart)
Ms. Carolyn: That was a really great drawing you made for the waitress, Maraya. You're a really good artist.
Maraya: Thanks, Ms. Carolyn!
Ms. Carolyn: Well, we better head to the hospital so we can pay Ashley a visit.
(She puts some money on the table and then leads Maraya and Mr. Danny out. The scene changes once again to where they are in the hospital)
Woman #1: Hello, how can I help you?
Ms. Carolyn: Do you know which hospital room Ashley Pinson is in? We're here to pay her a visit.
Woman #1: Yes, Ashley's in room #5.
Ms. Carolyn: Okay, thank you.
(They all go find the hospital room. Setting changes to the inside of the hospital room)
(Knocks on door)
Ms. Carolyn: Hello, Novalee. Is it all right if we can visit Ashley?
Novalee: Of course, come on in.
(After they all go in, Maraya shuts the door)
Ashley: Oh, hello, Ms. Carolyn.
Ms. Carolyn: Hello, Ashley, how are you feeling?
Ashley: Much better. The doctor used a cloth to stop my face from bleeding and then she took me to get stitches.
Maraya: Whoa. (becomes sad) Ashley, I'm sorry that I hit your face really bad with a swing at the playground earlier. I was just angry, and now, I've improved my behavior.
Ashley: it's okay, Maraya. I understand that you were mad at me and my friends.
Erin and Novalee: Yeah.
Maraya: And Erin, I'm sorry for pushing you off the slide and I'm very sorry for making you get off the monkey bars, Novalee.
Erin: It's all right, Maraya.
Novalee: Yeah, it's okay. We forgive you for your apologies, Maraya.
Maraya: Yay, you forgive me! Let's celebrate with a song! Mr. Danny, hit it.
(Mr. Danny gets out his acoustic guitar and starts playing it)
Maraya (singing):🎵It's not always easy to behave yourself
Because anywhere you went, you started acting up
Ms. Carolyn tried to really help me
But I failed as all of you can see🎵
Maraya (singing):🎵When we got home, Ms. Carolyn sent me up to my room
So I can experience all that excess gloom
But as soon Mr. Danny saw me feeling sad, he said,
"Practice makes perfect, don't give up quite yet
Because if I didn't practice, then I would've got worse"
So when we went to try again, I succeeded once and for all🎵
(Instrumental)
Maraya (singing): 🎵And now I'm in the hospital
Because my best friend has fallen down
She's gotten hurt all because of me
Which might see so hurtful to you
But when I apologized to her, she said that it was okay
And also forgave me because of what I've done
It made me feel better as I have my three friends again
Because practice makes perfect, 
Don't give up quite yet
That's what he said when I was down in the dumps
Just keep trying till you succeed
And it'll make you feel better
It'll make you feel better🎶 (2×)
Other girls: Wow!
Novalee: That was a great song, Maraya.
Erin (not seen): Yeah.
Ashley: And Maraya?
(Maraya walks up to Ashley's bed)
Ashley: That song you sang made me feel even better.
Maraya: You really think so?
Ashley: Yes. I'm sure that by tomorrow, I'll be getting out of the hospital to go back home.
Novalee: Us, too.
Erin: Uh huh.
Maraya: Thank you, Ashley, for being such a good friend, and thank you to you two, Erin and Novalee.
Novalee: Aw, you're welcome, Maraya.
Erin: But I think you forgot someone else to say thanks to.
Maraya: Oh, yeah. (runs away from them) And thank you, Ms. Carolyn and Mr. Danny, for helping me succeed.
Ms. Carolyn: You're very welcome, Maraya.
Mr. Danny: Yes, and it was my idea to help.
Ms. Carolyn: Well, come on, we better go because it's almost all of our bedtimes.
Maraya: Okay, Ms. Carolyn. (walks away) Goodbye, my friends.
Other girls: Bye, Maraya!
(Setting changes to the outside of the hospital)
Mr. Danny: You did very good at passing your final test, Maraya.
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, you did. You did great.
Maraya (laughing): Thanks, you two! I really appreciate it, although it was all thanks to Mr. Danny for teaching me that I shouldn't give up at all.
Mr. Danny: Oh. (chuckling)
Ms. Carolyn: Let's go, guys. We have no time to chit-chat, so let's run to the car.
Both: Okay, Ms. Carolyn.
(They start running to the car)
Maraya and Ms. Carolyn: (laughing)
Mr. Danny: (laughing along)
(They all start laughing while running to the car and in the meantime, the camera goes up into the night sky and a star twinkles. After that, the scene fades out to end the episode)
