The Easiest Class in the World (transcript)

"The Easiest Class in the World" is the thirty-third episode of the series "My School Life".
== Description ==
Maraya is getting tired of being in Ms. Sherrit's class because she always gets on her, no matter what she does, so she decides to be in Ms. Pierce's class instead because it's the easiest class in the school. But while the week passes by, Maraya wants to do some of her normal things that she did in Ms. Sherrit's class, like talking to her best friends at lunch and going to her Earth systems class, but Ms. Pierce doesn't let her because she is in her class now. So after the week is nearly done, she stays after school to ask the administrator if she can switch her class again because it isn't as fun as Maraya thought. Then on the last day of the week, Maraya is having fun and is glad that she is in Ms. Sherrit's class with her friends again.
== Transcript ==
(The episode starts by taking place outside of the bus loading zone and then zooms in the school when Maraya comes out)
Maraya: For the last few days, I hadn't been liking being in Ms. Sherrit's class because lately, Ms. Sherrit's been getting onto me. Let me show you a few flashbacks so you'll know what I mean.
(The first flashback begins)
Maraya (as narrator): She got onto me for using my smartphone in class...
(Phone vibrates)
Maraya (in flashback): Oh.
(She gets her phone out to check it, but while she's checking it, Ms. Sherrit tells her to put it away)
Ms. Sherrit (not seen, in flashback): Maraya, put your phone away, please.
Maraya (in flashback): (sighs)
(First flashback ends)
Maraya: And for letting Ms. Sherrit know I'm finished with my work at a far distance...
(Second flashback begins with Maraya being finished with her work)
Maraya (raises hand in flashback): Ms. Sherrit, I'm finished.
Ms. Sherrit (not seen, in flashback): Maraya, come here, please.
Maraya (sighs in flashback): Do I have to?
Ms. Sherrit (not seen, in flashback): Yes...
Maraya (sighs in flashback): Fine, I will.
(She gets up with her work to push her chair and walk away as the second flashback ends)
Maraya: And now, I'm wishing to be in Ms. Pierce's class instead because Ms. Sherrit is really mean. 
Ms. Sherrit: Maraya, stop daydreaming and get on your bus or else Ms. Carolyn is going to lose her cool. Or even worse, she'll leave without you.
Maraya (scared): Ahhh...
(Camera points at Maraya running to her bus)
Maraya: (panting)
(After she gets on her bus, the bus doors close and drives away from the bus loading zone. Setting changes to the inside of the bus where Maraya is still panting and then stops)
Maraya: Phew, that was a close one and I'm glad because I don't have to see Ms. Sherrit's face ever again.
(Camera points at Ms. Carolyn driving)
Ms. Carolyn: What's the matter with Ms. Sherrit, Maraya?
Maraya (mad): Ms. Sherrit is the worst teacher ever because she treats me like a slave and is a piece of garbage.
(Scene zooms out)
Ms. Carolyn (mad): Maraya, watch your profanity.
Maraya (sighs): Sorry, Ms. Carolyn, but I hadn't been liking being in her class recently. She gets onto me for everything I do. I wish I can just be in somebody else's class like...Ms. Pierce's class.
Ms. Carolyn: Maybe you should ask one of your parents to take you to the school and talk to an administrator.
Maraya: Great idea, Ms. Carolyn. (sighs) You really are the best.
(Scene changes to where Maraya is in her house for the night. Camera points at Maraya eating sadly)
Lisa (not seen): So, Maraya, how did school go today?
Maraya: Not very well, mom. Recently, I've been having a lot of rough days because Ms. Sherrit's been giving me problems.
Lisa (not seen): Oh, that's bad, sweetie.
Maraya: Yeah. Mom, can you take me to the school tomorrow morning so I can talk to the administrator?
Lisa (not seen): But who's going to tell Ms. Carolyn that you're not going to ride the bus tomorrow morning?
Maraya (thinking): Um, my dad can.
Lisa (not seen): Oh, okay. (she is seen): Ryan, make sure to tell Ms. Carolyn tomorrow that she's not riding.
Ryan: Okay, Lisa.
(Scene changes again to where it is the next morning. Camera points at Maraya sleeping until the door is heard opening)
Lisa (not seen): Maraya, time to wake up.
Maraya: (gets up and yawns)
Lisa (not seen): Come and get ready, sweetie. Your breakfast is in the kitchen, waiting for you.
Maraya: Okay, mom.
(She gets out of bed and walks away. The scene changes once again to where sitting at the kitchen table)
Lisa: Here's your special good luck breakfast, sweetie.
Maraya: Oh, boy, pancakes! Thanks, mom!
Lisa: You're welcome. Enjoy your breakfast!
Maraya: Thanks!
(Maraya starts eating her pancakes and then it changes to where she is all ready)
Maraya (sighs): I am finally ready. Let's play on my smartphone until it's time to go.
(She starts to look at her phone until the scene changes again to where they are at the office)
Administrator (not seen): So, Maraya, what's the problem?
Maraya: I've been gotten onto by Ms. Sherrit for dumb reasons for the last few days and I hadn't been liking it. Do you think you can make me be in Ms. Pierce's class instead?
Administrator (not seen): Sure, Maraya. I'll try to see what I can do.
Maraya: Yes! Thank you!
Administrator (not seen): You're welcome.
(Maraya gets up from the chair to run out. Scene changes once again to where Maraya is in her class, looking at the clock on the wall. While she looks at it, some voices echo)
Ms. Sherrit (echoing): Maraya, put your phone away, please. (echoing again) Maraya, come here, please. (echoing once again): Maraya, stop daydreaming and get on your bus or else Ms. Carolyn is going to lose her cool. Or even worse, she'll leave without you.
(Dramatic music plays until she felt a tap on her shoulder)
Maraya: Ah!
(She turns around towards Ms. Sherrit)
Ms. Sherrit: Maraya, you better stop staring at that clock and finish your work or else you'll be sitting with me at lunch.
Maraya: Okay.
(After she walks away, Maraya turns back around)
Maraya (in her own head): Oh, no, Ms. Sherrit got onto me again. Now I'm going to have another rough day again because of this. (sighs)
(It changes to where Maraya is on the bus)
Maraya: (sighs again)
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): So, Maraya, how was your day this time?
Maraya: You can just tell how my day was because of my expression.
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): I'm guessing you didn't have a great day today, Maraya.
Maraya: Yes, Ms. Carolyn. I did have another rough day. (sighs) Now I really want to be in Ms. Pierce's class.
(A calendar appears in the middle of the screen and then disappears when it's Monday)
Ms. Carolyn: Good morning, Maraya.
Maraya: Good morning, Ms. Carolyn.
Ms. Carolyn: Ready for school, Maraya?
Maraya (sighs): No, Ms. Carolyn, I'm not, because I'm sure that I'm still going to be in Ms. Sherrit's class.
(She walks to sit in her seat)
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): Didn't you talk to an administrator about it?
Maraya: I did, but I don't think it's going to work.
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): You don't know that.
Maraya: Yes, I do. Just see for yourself later on.
(The scene changes again to where Maraya is sitting in the little classroom until she heard Ms. Ryan call)
Ms. Ryan (not seen): Ms. Sherrit's crew, let's go.
Maraya (sighs): Well, here goes nothing.
(She gets up from her seat and gets out of the classroom)
Ms. Ryan: Hey, Maraya, I heard from the administrator that you're not going to be part of Ms. Sherrit's class anymore. Instead, you're going to be in Ms. Pierce's class.
Maraya: Yes! Thanks, Northgate!
Ms. Ryan: But, if you want, you can walk halfway with us until you get to room 209.
Maraya: Okay.
Ms. Ryan: Well, then, let's go.
(Scene changes once again to where they get to 209)
Ms. Ryan: Okay, Maraya, you're here. We'll see you later, all right?
Maraya: Okay.
Novalee: Bye, Maraya!
Maraya: Bye! (gulps) Here goes. Let's hope Ms. Pierce's class isn't a danger zone.
(Some dramatic music plays while Maraya is grabbing for the door handle in slow motion. When it points at her hand on the handle the fourth time, she opens the door and looks in the classroom)
Maraya: Wow!
(The camera pans to the whole classroom. After it is panned, Maraya walks to where the backpack hooks are)
Ms. Pierce (walks up): Hello, Maraya. 
Maraya: Hello, Ms. Pierce.
Ms. Pierce: I heard that you're going to be in my class for the rest of the semester.
Maraya: Yeah.
Ms. Pierce: Please hang up your backpack right next to Casey's and Georgi's.
Maraya: Okay.
(She turns around to hang up her backpack and then turns back around)
Ms. Pierce: Great. Now that you did that, I'm going to show you where you're sitting.
(She shows Maraya where her seat is)
Ms. Pierce: This is where your seat will be. It's across from a boy named Anthony.
Maraya: Anthony? Who's Anthony?
Ms. Pierce: Anthony's the boy with the red and blue striped shirt. He has severe autism.
Maraya: Wow, so he has autism just like me?
Ms. Pierce: Yep, and so do the others.
Maraya: Wow, this is great.
Ms. Pierce (not seen): Class, please take your seats as I introduce you all our new student.
(Maraya takes her seat while Ms. Pierce gathers the others)
Ms. Pierce: Come on, Anthony, let's go sit down.
(After she walks Anthony to his seat, she grabs Casey)
Ms. Pierce: Casey, come on. We're going to have a class discussion.
(She gets her up and takes her to her seat. As soon as she gets her seated, Ms. Pierce begins a class discussion)
Ms. Pierce: Class, I would like to introduce you to a new student. This is Maraya. 
(The camera points at Anthony and Casey waving, then to Dylan and Jonathan)
Dylan and Jonathan: Hey, Maraya.
(Next, it points at Angel waving and then Georgi who says hello using a communication device)
Phone: Hey, Maraya.
Maraya: Hello! (laughing)
(After she stops laughing, Ms. Pierce is seen clapping her hands)
Ms. Pierce (claps hands): All right, class. Today, you're going to do a hands on activity, and that hands on activity I'm going to choose for you to do is...
(Scene zooms into Maraya and camera points back to Ms. Pierce after)
Ms. Pierce: Puzzles. Please choose a puzzle to do from that shelf behind you.
(Chairs push on floor)
Maraya: Ooh, puzzles. Which one should I choose? (thinking) Hmm, I know. I'll choose this one. (not seen) A puzzle with a pink background and a big flower in the middle.
(She walks to her seat to do her puzzle. It changes to where Maraya puts the last piece on the puzzle)
Maraya: There, it's perfect. Ms. Pierce, I'm finished.
Ms. Pierce: Good, you may put it away.
Maraya: Okay.
(She takes the puzzle apart and puts the pieces in the box and then puts it on the shelf)
Maraya: Perfect. Ms. Pierce, may I lie down on the carpet and play on my phone?
Ms. Pierce (not seen): Yes, you may.
Maraya: Yes! Thank you!
Ms. Pierce (not seen): You're welcome.
(Scene changes again to where Maraya is lying on the carpet)
Maraya: Aaah, this is great. No getting yelled at, no intimidations, and most of all, I get to do whatever I want, because it's the easiest class in the world! (yawns) Maybe I should take a little nap until lunchtime because I am sure sleepy. 
(Maraya yawns again and turns around so she can take a nap. While she is sleeping, a clock appears in the middle of the screen and when it is a few hours later, Ms. Pierce wakes her up)
Ms. Pierce (not seen): Maraya, wake up.
(Maraya slowly opens her eyes, gets up, and yawns)
Ms. Pierce: Ready for lunch, Maraya?
Maraya: Yes.
Ms. Pierce: Great. Then get your lunchbox and let's go.
Maraya: Okay.
(She gets her lunchbox from her cubby and the scene changes once again to where they are walking together. Then it changes to where they are sitting at a table)
Ms. Pierce (not seen): Okay, Maraya, you may eat now.
Maraya: Oh, goody! Thank you!
Ms. Pierce (not seen): You're welcome.
(Maraya takes a bite of her food, but meanwhile, the setting changes to another area of the cafeteria and camera points at the entrance door)
(Chairs push on floor)
Maraya (turns around): Hey, Carmen. Hey, Ashley. Hey, Novalee.
Ms. Pierce: Maraya, turn around and eat your food first. Then, you can talk to your friends if you have time.
Maraya: Okay, Ms. Pierce. I'm sorry.
(She turns back around to eat her food. The scene changes again to where she is finished eating her food and tries again)
Maraya (turns around): Hey, Novalee, if you want, we can talk on the phone when we get home. 
Ms. Pierce (not seen): Maraya.
(Maraya turns back around)
Ms. Pierce: Don't talk to your friends who are sitting at the other table that's behind you.
Ms. Sherrit: Yeah.
Ms. Martin: Yeah.
Ms. Ryan: Yeah.
Maraya: But you said that I can talk to my friends after I'm finished eating, and look, I am finished eating.
Ms. Pierce: When I said that you can talk to your friends after you're finished eating, I didn't mean that you could talk to your best friends. (not seen) The friends that I meant you could talk to were your new classmates.
Maraya: Oh.
Ms. Pierce (not seen): And by the way, it's time for us to go back to class.
Maraya: Already? But -
Ms. Pierce: Now, Maraya.
Maraya (sighs): Fine, I'll walk back to class.
(She gets up to push her chair and walk back to class. Scene changes once again this where Maraya is doing something at the table until she heard the bell rang)
(Bell rings)
Maraya (gasps): The bell!
(She gets up to push her chair and get her backpack off the hook)
Ms. Pierce: Maraya, where are you going?
Maraya: To my fourth block.
Ms. Pierce: You can't go to your fourth block when you're in my class.
Maraya: But I always go to my fourth block.
Ms. Pierce: Sorry, Maraya, but rules are rules. Why not go back to your seat and finish your activity?
Maraya (sighs): Okay.
(She puts her backpack back on the hook and walks to her seat to finish her activity. It then changes to where she gets on her bus)
Ms. Carolyn: Hey, Maraya, how did your first day being in Ms. Pierce's class go?
Maraya: It went great! We got to do puzzles, eat lunch early, and I even got to go to sleep.
Ms. Carolyn (chuckles): Sounds like you had a fun day.
Maraya: I did, Ms. Carolyn, and I didn't even get yelled at by Ms. Sherrit one bit.
Ms. Carolyn: That's amazing.
Maraya: Yeah, and I can't wait for tomorrow to come so I can have more fun!
(Scene changes again to where Maraya is in Ms. Pierce's classroom the next day)
Maraya: Excuse me, Ms. Pierce. May I use the restroom before class starts?
Ms. Pierce: Of course you can, Maraya. You can use the restroom anytime.
Maraya: Really? Thanks, Ms. Pierce!
(When Maraya was about to go in the restroom, a short boy enters in and shuts the door) 
Maraya (mad): Hey! I was here first, and plus, that boy didn't even ask the teacher. 
Ms. Pierce: Maraya, go sit down at the waiting wall, please.
Maraya: But I don't want to, because I gotta go really bad, so may I use the public restroom instead? 
Ms. Pierce: No, you may not, because you are part of my class now, so please sit at the waiting wall. 
Maraya: Okay, fine, I will. 
(She sits down) 
Ms. Pierce: Thank you, Maraya. 
(Scene zooms into her pouting and then the scene changes once again to where it is a few hours later) 
Ms. Pierce: So, what are you going to eat for lunch, Maraya? 
Maraya: I brought my lunch today. 
Ms. Pierce (not seen): Oh, okay. 
(Scene changes to where Maraya is in the cafeteria) 
Maraya: Carmen, Novalee, Ashley, if you like, I can let you all come over to my house and we can hang out together. 
Ms. Pierce: Maraya, what have we told you yesterday at lunch? 
Maraya (sighs): Talk to my classmates, not to my best friends that are behind me. 
Ms. Pierce: Good. 
(A calendar appears in the middle of the screen while a montage for the next day and the day after go on. When it gets to Thursday afternoon, Maraya is sitting on the rug until she hears the bell ring) 
Maraya: Yes! It's class time! 
Ms. Pierce (not seen): Class time? But it's been class time. 
Maraya: I didn't mean this class time; I mean class time with Ms. Gibson.
Ms. Pierce (not seen): Maraya, remember what I told you? You can't go to your fourth block because you're part of my class now.
Maraya: But you've been saying that since I first entered here.
Ms. Pierce (not seen): Sorry, Maraya, but you're stuck with me now. Call Ms. Gibson and tell her that you're on vacation.
Maraya: Okay.
(It changes again to where Maraya is walking to her bus slowly. When she gets on, the camera points at Ms. Carolyn)
Ms. Carolyn: Hey, Maraya.
Maraya (sighs): Hey, Ms. Carolyn.
Ms. Carolyn: What's the matter, Maraya?
Maraya: When I signed up for Ms. Pierce's class, I thought that it was going to be more fun than Ms. Sherrit's class, but ever since I first attended it, Ms. Pierce won't let me talk to my best friends at lunch, or go to job sites, or even go to my fourth block with Ms. Gibson. I guess it's not as much fun as I thought it would.
Ms. Carolyn: Now, why on Earth would Ms. Pierce do that to you?
Maraya: I don't know, because she's dumb?
Ms. Carolyn: No, I don't think it's because she's dumb, it's because she doesn't know you very well.
Maraya: Do you really think so?
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, I do think so.
Maraya: But how will I let her know more about myself? And how will I get myself back in Ms. Sherrit's class again?
Ms. Carolyn: You should make a presentation about yourself to share the class and you should talk to the administrator tomorrow about changing classes back.
Maraya: Okay, Ms. Carolyn, thanks.
Ms. Carolyn: No problem. (winks)
(Scene changes once again to where Maraya is in her house, sitting at the kitchen table) 
Lisa (not seen): Maraya, what's wrong, sweetie? Don't you like your new class at school? 
Maraya (sighs): No, because she doesn't let me do some of the same things as Ms. Sherrit. And plus, I got this to do. 
Lisa (not seen): What? Ms. Pierce gave you homework to do tonight? But I thought she doesn't give you homework. 
Maraya: The assignment isn't from Ms. Pierce, it's from Ms. Carolyn. She wants me to make a presentation so the class can know more about me. 
Lisa (not seen): Phew, that's good. And if you want, I can take you to school to talk to the administrator again tomorrow. 
Maraya: Yes, please! (laughing) 
(It changes to the next morning) 
Lisa (not seen): Maraya, wake up, sweetie. We have to go talk to the administrator today. 
Maraya (yawns): Okay, mom. 
(She gets up to get ready. Scene changes again to where they are in the administrator's office, talking) 
Administrator (not seen): So, Maraya, why did you come here? 
Maraya: Because I don't like Ms. Pierce's class now. I really like Ms. Sherrit's class better because I get to talk to my friends, go on field trips, and even going to my fourth block. Although she's mean, still, she lets me do all those fun things. So, please, can you switch my classes back? Please? 
Administrator (not seen): All right, I'll switch your classes back. 
Maraya: Yay! Thanks, Ms. Harper! 
Administrator (not seen): Not at all. 
(She gets up from her chair to run out. Scene changes once again to where Maraya is sharing a presentation) 
Maraya: So, here's a presentation I made about one person: me. 
(She looks back up when the next slide appears) 
Maraya: As all of you know, my name is Maraya Star Adams, and I'm a 16-year-old girl who's on the autism spectrum, which means that I have trouble communicating with people. 
(Next slide appears) 
Maraya: But I don't have trouble with all skills, because I can use the public restroom instead of waiting for a long time at the waiting wall, do challenging schoolwork, and walk to my fourth block by myself because I'm smart. 
(Next slide appears) 
Maraya: And even though I'm autistic, I get better everyday, with the help from my friends, my teachers, my bus driver, and most importantly, my family, because we're all together to make my school life better. 
(Applause and cheering) 
Ms. Pierce: Yeah, Maraya. 
Ms. Sherrit: Whoo-hoo!
Ms. Martin: That was awesome!
(Camera points at Maraya and zooms out when Ms. Ryan runs to hug her) 
Ms. Ryan: That was an awesome presentation, Maraya. You really did a great job letting Ms. Pierce know more about yourself. 
Maraya (laughing): And it was all of Ms. Carolyn's idea so she can help me. 
Ms. Ryan: Yeah, but still, it was great. Thank you, Maraya, for sharing that presentation with us. 
Maraya (laughing): No problem, Ms. Ryan, no problem. 
(She looks at the camera to wink and smile. It changes to when it is a few days later) 
Ms. Ryan (not seen): Ms. Sherrit's crew, let's go. 
(Maraya gets up from her seat to walk to her class with her friends and teacher. Setting changes to the outside of the classroom) 
Ms. Ryan: Hey, Maraya, ready to go back to our class today? 
Maraya: Yes, Ms. Ryan, I am. 
Ms. Ryan: Great, then let's go. 
(Maraya and her other three friends follow Ms. Ryan to their classroom. Scene changes again to where everyone passes room 209, except for Maraya, who stops to say something) 
Maraya (sighs): Goodbye, room 209. See you next time. 
Novalee (not seen): Come on, Maraya, we're waiting for you. 
Maraya: Coming! (laughing) 
(When she runs away, the camera zooms into the classroom's door and then the scene changes once again to where they get to room 741) 
Ms. Ryan: Hello, sweet friends. Look who's back in our class. 
Students (getting and running up): Maraya! 
(Camera points back at Maraya and her friends when Carmen, Nicki, Ashley, Anie, and Jess run to her)
Carmen: So, how was it like being in Ms. Pierce's class last week, Maraya?
Maraya: I thought that it was going to be great, but I found out that it wasn't as great as I thought it would because I couldn't talk to you, go to job sites, or even go to my fourth block, so I decided to come back here.
Carmen: Oh.
Maraya: Although Ms. Sherrit gets onto just me too much, still, I decided to come back here because you are my friends, and friends aren't people that I should leave. Friends are people that are located in a special place in my heart.
Carmen (sniffs): Aw, Maraya, that's such a sweet speech to share to us.
Novalee: Yay, Maraya's back in our class!
Ashley: Room 741 is where the heart is.
Maraya: I guess you're right, Ashley. This is the place for where my heart is.
(Suddenly, Jess joins in the conversation by interrupting)
Jess: Sorry for interrupting your conversation, but speaking of room 741 being "where the heart is", I forgot to tell you that we're going to plan a big party for Maraya.
Maraya: Ooh, a party. Where's it going to be located?
Jess: Shhh, it's a surprise.
Carmen: Yes, Maraya. It's a surprise because if we told you, then it wouldn't be one.
Maraya: Oh.
Ashley: Wait till the end of the day to see your surprise, Maraya.
Maraya: Okay, Ashley, I will.
Ashley: Awesome.
(Scene changes to where they are at lunch later)
Maraya: Hey, Novalee.
(Camera pans to her)
Maraya: Would you and your friends like to come over to my house after school?
Novalee: I'd love to!
Carmen: Me, too!
Ashley: And don't forget me!
Maraya (chuckling): Of course I won't, because you're all my friends.
Girls: Aw...
Carmen: We're glad that you're back in our class, Maraya.
Ashley: Me, too.
Novalee: And me!
Maraya: (laughing)
(It changes to where her friends are at the bus loading zone without Maraya)
Carmen: There. The bus loading zone is all decorated for the party.
Ashley: And just in time, because Maraya's going to be here any minute.
Novalee: Let's get Ms. Carolyn so she can help us surprise her.
Jess: Okay, Novalee. You can knock on her door and the rest of us can call her name.
Novalee: Okey-dokey!
(She knocks on the door)
Everyone else: Ms. Carolyn!
(As they heard the doors open, they back up so they wouldn't get hurt)
Ms. Carolyn: Yes?
Novalee: Hey, Ms. Carolyn, can you get off your bus for a minute, please?
Carmen: We need to tell you something important.
Ms. Carolyn: Why, of course I will.
(She gets up from her seat to get off the bus)
Ms. Carolyn: So, what's the important thing you want to tell me?
Everyone: We're having a party!
Ms. Carolyn: A party? Oh, that sounds nice. Can I come?
Carmen: Of course, because -
Novalee: Everyone is invited.
Ms. Carolyn (chuckling): Wonderful!
Ashley: But you got to help us surprise Maraya because she'll be coming any minute and we don't want her to see it until we surprise her. 
Ms. Carolyn: Oh, okay, Ashley. I'll help you and your friends surprise Maraya, which is right about...
(Camera points at the two doors that lead to the bus loading zone outside)
Ms. Carolyn (not seen): Now! My friends, hide!
(Everyone hides behind Ms. Carolyn. Meanwhile, the camera points at Maraya walking until she stops to turn around and look at the decorations hung up) 
Maraya: Ooh, cool decorations. (chuckles) 
(She turns back around to walk to her bus. Camera points again at Ms. Carolyn standing outside of her bus until Maraya comes to her) 
Maraya: Oh, hey, Ms. Carolyn. Nice day we're having, huh? 
Ms. Carolyn: Yes, indeed. 
Maraya: Ms. Carolyn, can I ask you a question? 
Ms. Carolyn: Of course, ask me anything. 
Maraya: Why is there decorations hung up out in the bus loading zone? 
Ms. Carolyn: I don't know, special holiday? (to everyone else, softly) Okay, friends, on the count of three, surprise Maraya. Ready? One, two, three.
Everyone (loudly): Surprise!
Maraya (gasps): Wow!
Ms. Carolyn: Were you surprised, Maraya?
Maraya: Yeah, what is the surprise?
Carmen: It's a party just for you, and we included all sorts of stuff, like music.
(Disco music plays for a few seconds and then ends so it can pan to Ashley)
Ashley: And games.
(Camera pans to Novalee)
Novalee: And most importantly, vanilla cake.
Maraya: Vanilla cake? Wow, you sure know how to make me satisfied.
Ms. Carolyn: And because you've accomplished yet another milestone, let's get this party started.
Everyone else: Yes! Let's do!
Ms. Carolyn: (laughing)
Everyone else (cheering): Yay, Maraya! Yay!
(As all of them start laughing along, the camera goes up and the scene fades out to an end)
