=== Cold Open ===
Vice Principal Mandell: Mrs. Andrews, I'm afraid I have some concerns about the history of your son, Max, at his previous schools.
Mrs. Andrews: What concerns?
Max: Does it look like I care?
Vice Principal Mandell: {groans} Let’s read this report. Your child often arrives late to class, he doesn’t complete his homework, he is easily distracted during lessons, his behaviour has been aggressive and even disruptive…
Mrs. Andrews: Nonsense. Max is an angel, and those teachers were just not doing their job well enough.
Max: Yeah, you should obviously know.
Vice Principal Mandell: No, Mrs. Andrews, us educators, no matter what school we work at, are doing our job as best we can, but your child still refuses to listen.
Mrs. Andrews: Again, you’re just not doing your job well enough.
Principal Silverman: No, you have not raised your child well enough.
Vice Principal Mandell: Oh, Principal Silverman! Thank goodness you’re here.
Principal Silverman: There is nothing worse than a combination of constant lateness to class, lack of grades, and bad behaviour. All of which are unacceptable! This is the behaviour of kids who are antisocial, selfish, lazy, uneducated, and all of the above, because their parents have raised their children poorly. Just like you, Mrs. Andrews!
Max: I’m not listening to anything you say, old man! You can’t make me!
Principal Silverman: Don’t you talk like that, young man!
Mrs. Andrews: No one talks to my son like that!
Principal Silverman: Your son is to be on his best behaviour because we are afraid of THIS.
{Principal Silverman takes out a laptop and plays a video predicting a world where everyone is antisocial, illiterate, ill-mannered, aggressive, and addicted to mindless entertainment.}
Principal Silverman: Our state’s school system relies on us to make sure your child has the best education possible. Without education, your child has no future. Yes, it’s difficult work, especially for our part, but this is why we need our students to be at their best. I need students who are confident, smart, well-mannered, socialised. I need students like… like… Diana Alexandra Lombard.
=== Diana’s Morning ===
{Diana is sleeping in her bed. Her alarm clock changes its display from 5:59am to 6:00am. “The Mission” plays on the alarm clock, waking Diana up. She yawns and groans as she sits up in her bed.}
Radio Announcer: Good morning, Laguna Beach City, it’s just turned 6:00, and today is Monday, which means it’s time to start the week. So you parents at home better get ready to go to work and get your kids ready for school. Once again, you kids get ready for school— {Diana shuts off the alarm clock}
Diana: Yeah, yeah, I heard you the first time! Stupid radio announcer.

* The first scene is a slight rip off of that of Monsters, Inc.
* The radio announcer’s voice is similar to that of Glen Quagmire of Family Guy.
