## Script

### INT. STEVIE'S HOUSE

[The episode starts with Arion pouring himself some orange juice, walking to the couch, and sits down to watch TV]

**Stevie**: Ah, time to watch my daily dose of-

**Lucas**: Spongebob! [smiles and picks up the remote]

**Maria**: [Runs up to Lucas, scarring him and falling off the couch] "Hey, Lucas! You're coming to my Painting Competition today, right?"

**Stevie:** [gets up] “Hey, don’t scare me like that!” [dust himself off] "I don’t know, I don’t feel like going- Hold up, how'd you get in my house?!” *[The camera shows a broken window to Stevie's house[*

**Maria:** "Lame. I won the last six art competitions, and you're the only member of this town who hasn't come out to support me."

**Stevie:** "That's because Im busy, therefore I don’t want to go. I think you should just respect that.” [turns away and walks away with his drink]

**Maria**: [Grabs Stevie's arm and pulls him back a little] “Listen, please! Everyone else is busy-“

**Stevie**: “No thank you.” [Pushes her off, turns away, and drinks orange juice]

**Maria**: [gets in front of Stevie] “H-how later today? You can’t be that busy…

**Stevie**: [Turns away] “Nope!”

**Maria**: [Gets in front of Stevie again] “With you there, I’ll have enough confidence to-“

**Stevie**: “pass…!” [pushes her aside]

**Maria:** *[slowly zooms on her, holding her wallet and shows a stack of cash]* "Sure you won't reconsider?" [camera zooms out to show Stevie has vanished, Maria looks down sad along with the money sagging sadly. Suddenly a limo crashes through the wall, running over Maria]

**Stevie**: [Gets out of the limo] LET’S GO!!!

Cut to the art competition with Maria sitting there. She waves at Stevie in the crowd, who’s playing on his Nintendo Switch. Maria scoffs and rolls her eyes and starts painting. Maria struggles and the timer showing 60 minutes soon cuts to 10 seconds. The timer runs out and Maria is now covered in paint and sweating.

**Judge**: [walks to Maria] Let me see your- [looks at it and stands shocked]

**Judge 2**: [face turns green and runs to vomit off screen]

**Judge 3**: [grabs defibrillator] Clear! [zaps himself and dies, his soul pops out but screams as fire burns him out of existence]

**Maria**: [walks away nervous and embarrassed]

Cut to outside of the art contest. Maria and Stevie walk out of the building, Stevie is still playing on his gaming console.

**Maria**: Stevie! You barely supported me at all!

**Stevie**: Uh-huh! Great job on winning!

**Maria**: I didn’t!

**Stevie**: Good for you! Oh, by the way- [takes Maria’s money] Deals a deal! [walks away]

**Maria**: [face turns red with anger and steams] YOU KNOW, YOUR A REAL PAIN IN MY- *[walks into the street and gets hit by a bus. She then gets a mirror dropped on her, a black cat runs past, and some salt falls on her head. The scene transitions to Maria talking to Belinda.]*

### INT. MARIA & BELINDA'S HOUSE

**Maria**: The one time I invite him and I lose! What gives?!

**Belinda**: That’s horrible! [playing on her phone]

**Maria**: Are you even listening to me?

**Belinda**: Uhh- *[Moves her phone away]* Of course!

**Maria**: Really?

**Belinda**: No! Of course not!

**Maria**: Screw this! Imma check the mail! *[Leaves the house and goes to her mail box and checks]* Empty? *[Sees Arion, Kameron, and Light passing by]* Oh, hey, Arion!

**Arion**: Hey, im going to the theater! Wanna come with?

**Maria**: Sure! *[Belinda walks up]*

**Belinda**: Oh, Can I come to?

**Arion**: Sure! *[The bus arrives and they get on. First Arion, then Kameron, then Light, then Belinda. Jaime stops Maria from getting on]*

**Jaime:** Nuh-uh. Sorry bro, bus is full. *[Bus door closes and the bus drives away leaving Maria behind]*

**Maria:** That's cool guys! I guess I'll just walk! *(The rest of the kids are in the back of the bus)*

**Kameron:** Wait a second, where's Maria? *[They turn around to see Maria get beaten up The thugs approach Maria outside through the back window of the bus.]*

**Salvage:** Yo punk, give us your wallet! *[Thugs beat up Maria to the ground. Arion's friends all show a nervous and fearful expression. A montage shows Maria getting hit by a car, a tree crushes her, bees chase her across the streets. A helicopter slams into her. The same thugs beat the crap out of her, a massive bee hive crushes her, then she gets shocked by lightning, then a meteor, and then The Sun crashes into her and explodes the entire screen into flames. Cut to Arion's friends coming out of the theater wearing 3D Glasses and holding pop-corn.]*

### INT. TOON MOVIE THEATER - DAY

**Light**: That movie was sick!

**Belinda**: Yeah, wait-

**Kameron**: Movie of the year!

**Arion**: Yeah, I wanna see it again!

**Belinda**: Hey, where's Maria? *[Maria is being wheeled out of the hospital wearing a full body cast with only her eyes, mouth, ears, and nose visible. She pulls up by the theater]*

**Arion**: I found Maria! *[Pats her on the back]* How ya doing, buddy? *[Maria whimpers in pain]* Oh, sorry!

**Belinda**: What happened, sis?!

**Maria**: Bad...luck...*[coughs]*

**Light**: Hold up, isn't her birthday tomorrow?

**Belinda**: Oh yeah! It can't be that bad tomorrow! I'm sure your luck will change, tomorrow! *[Cut to a title card reading "Tomorrow". The party is at Maria's house. She is somehow already healed and she is dancing with everyone else. The door bell rings]*

**Maria**: I'll get that! *[Stevie is standing at the door holding a present]*

**Stevie**: Hi, Maria! Happy Birthday!

**Maria**: Hi, Stevie! Thanks! *[Lets Stevie in until she sees an package fell from her porch]* Oh, I must've forgotten that one. *[Closes the door, picks up the package, but the door slams shut]* Oh, no. *[Bangs on the door]* Guys, let me in! Help! *[Everyone doesn't hear cause of the music]*

**Joy**: Did you hear something, Arion?

**Arion**: *[Playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with Stevie, Kameron, and Light]* Not now, Joy! Can't you see Stevie is beating me?!

**Kameron**: Don't worry, Arion. I got the Blue Shell!

**Light**: Throw it! Throw it! Throw it! *[Cut back to outside. Maria sits on the porch and sighs]*

**Maria**: I can't let bad luck control me! Not on my birthday! *[Hears something from upstairs. Jessica is going through her bathroom]*

**Jessica**: Oh, cool! Maria got a cool comb! imma use it so my hair will look good! *[Uses it but it breaks]* Aw, man! *[Tosses it out the window and it bonks Maria on the head]*

**Maria**: Is that my special comb?! Okay, that's it! *[She climbs up her wall and gets to her window]*

**Block**: *[Comes in the bathroom]* Jessica, hurry- EW, BURGLER ALERT!!! *[Throws a TNT stick at Maria and blows her off the window. She slams the ground]*

**Maria**: Ow...Screw that, im gonna tunnel my way back in! *[Grabs a drill and tunnels her way in.]* Finally! Yes, im in! *[Sees Robert driving a bumber car and it runs her over. She pops back outside. She steams up]* I can take breaking my comb, Me getting bombed, nobody hearing my cries for help, but- I WANTED TO PLAY SOME BUMPER CARS!!! THIS IS A BIG PILE OF SH\*T!!!! *[Lifts up a giant bomb]* I'M BOMBING MY HOUSE!!!

**Isaiah:** *[off-screen]* Well, well, well. What do we have here? *[camera cuts to a close-up of Police Isaiah and his female partner, Olivia]* A burglar bunny. Why do they do it, Olivia?

**Olivia:** I don't know. It's probably how he gets his kicks.

**Isaiah:** You criminals make me sick.

**Maria:** No! I'm no criminal! I live here! I'm...I'm just throwing a birthday party, I got locked out, I swear!

**Isaiah:** *[both look at each other for a moment, shrugs, then smile]* Well, why didn't you say so? What a terrible misunderstanding!

**Olivia:** You have a nice party now, ma'am! *[both walk off]*

**Maria:** Phew, for a second there, I thought I was going to be arrested for breaking into my own house. What an ironic twist that would have been.

**Isaiah:** Hey! *[Maria yelps; both walk right back]* Wait a second, if you're throwing a party... why weren't *we* invited?

**Maria:** *[confused]* Uhh, was i supposed to?

**Olivia:** Whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay, donkey-mouth, tell it to the judge. *[handcuffs Maria, but the handcuffs are too small]* Aw, come on! These cuffs are broken.

**Isaiah:** Huh, we can't bring her in in broken cuffs. I got an old pair in the car we can use. *[transition to the officers taking Maria to jail in a pillory wrapped in chains, barbed wire, and old cowboy rope]*

**Maria:** Is it too late to offer you some punch?

**Olivia:** Maria, you have the right to remain silent. *[scene cuts to next day. Maria is walking home in a prison outfit. Her hair is down and messy. She is injured.]*

**Maria**: I got arrested...on my birthday...then I got beaten up...again...in jail...*[Tries opening the locked door to her house]* Oh, right! Door equals locked! *[Takes out her phone]* I'll just text- BELINDA!!! *[Belinda shows up behind her]*

**Belinda**: Calm down! I'll help! Stop shaking me! Arion dropped this bad of lucky charms off before he loved- *[Gasps as Maria grabs her again]*

**Maria**: GIVE ME THE BAG!!!! *[Cut to inside of the house. Maria has good luck charms on her head]* I don't feel right!

**Belinda**: It doesn't happen immediately
