Episode 9: The Concert

**Opening:**

(As soon as the opening ended, we see the two principals of the college, Mr. Brown and Miss Brownie walking nervously in the corridors heading towards the teachers' room.)

Mr. Brown: It is a disaster!

Miss Simian: What’s going on?

Ms. Brownie (anxious): The school’s financial resources are dry. We don’t have much money left to maintain it!

Mr. Brown: If it continues at this rate, the school will be destroyed and we will be thrown out!

Ms. Tall (spits out her chamomile tea): It’s terrible! We must save the school as soon as possible.

Mr. Small: Yes, but by what means?

Mr. Sinon: I know ! We will get the students to work in the city to raise money.

Ms. Simian (excited to turn students into slaves): I agree, a little work will not hurt them.

Mr. Brown: If that’s what you want, then never, NEVER ! students will have to know that it’s because we’re bankrupt!

(At the end of this sentence, they all looked towards the door and found that the students were listening to their conversation. The principals laid their hands on their heads in despair and the other teachers remained embarrassed.)

Noa (gen): A...So it’s true? Is school really broke?

Ms. Brownie (defeatist): Yes.

Mr. Brown (liar): No.

Anais (scared): Oh no, we are really in a crisis situation!

Banana Joe (smile): Great! That means we don’t need to go to class anymore!

Sami: We’re not all as stupid as you to drop out of school...

Tobia : How will we do?! I need my diploma to become rich and famous!!

Haden: Calm down, we’ll find a solution...

Mr. Sinon (take the opportunity to give responsibility to students): Exactly! YOU will find a solution!

Miss Simian: We’ll leave you until the end of the day to come up with an idea. Otherwise, you will be bombarded with duties until the school collapses!

(The two baboons slam the door violently to avoid retaliation from the students.)

Miss Brownie (reassured): Nice work, both of you..

Worris (on the other side, with the students): It is to ask who are the real adults here...

Masami (disappointed): It’s really not cool from them...

(Rocky and Roxy, the school janitors approach them and overhear their conversation. They go to them to try to help them).

Roxy: Hey, buddy, what’s up?

Gumball: Well, the teachers just asked us to save the school and bring them money.

Lassie: The cash!

Ocho: Coins!

Akiko: Funds !

Carla (stop them): In short, money.

Rocky: Well, you can check the school library. You don't have class so there is surely a mass universal resource that is incredible to give you full and great idea.

Freddy: Yes! The books!

Rocky: Um, I was talking about the internet.

(Freddy looks like a tibetan fox -he makes that face when he is frustrated-).

Cordelia: Let’s go, we don’t have a minute to lose!

(They go like a flock of sheep to the school library. Once there, Carla sat down at a computer and the rest of the class was behind her watching the screen.)

Carla (thinks): Hmm... What can I write for the search?

Aku: Why not the truth: "How do you make money to save your school when your incompetent teachers put pressure on you? "

(Carla typed word for word what Aku had just dictated to her. The page displayed a blank page indicating an error. While they were discussing an idea, they were interoperated by Melody who laughed at his phone.)

Zach: What makes you laugh so much?

Melody (shows her screen): Sorry, it’s Madison who makes me laugh, she sent me a message to tell me what was happening at Sweet Little Love. She made new friends there.

Haden: But yes of course! Ask her what she would do if she were in the same situation as we are now.

(Melody wrote this message to Madison. A few seconds later, she replied that she would organize a "talent show".)

Haden: Finally, we have our idea.

Noa: Well, here’s what we’ll do: a group will go and tell the teachers about our idea. Another group will start to organize the gym to make it more presentable, it is there that we will do this talent show. Finally, a last group will take care of the posters to display in the city, it is necessary that the most people is at the talent show to earn the most money.

Darwin: So that means the whole city can participate?

Leslie: I really like this idea! I’m going to start my show, if you’ll excuse me.

(After this sentence, many decided to go prepare their show. Only the members of the Dream Team, Anais and Noa were left to start preparing the talent show.)

Freddy: It’s really not nice of them, I also wanted to participate.

Bubblegum: Don’t bother. For our revenge, we’ll sell the tickets more expensive.

Penny: Definitely not! Otherwise, no one will come.

Saphir: Right, how about we get to work?

(While they were all leaving the room, Carla went to join Harry, Andy and Jessy.)

Carla: Hey guys, where are you going?

Harry: After we’ve finished what we had to do, we’ll take the bus to Sweet Little Love and see Madison.

Jessy: Yes. Since she had the idea for the talent show, it’s better if she participates, don’t you think?

Carla: I’ll go with you. Oh! I’ll ask Lexy and Emma if they want to join us.

Andy: Yeah good idea! Let’s meet at the bus stop.

Carla: Okay, I'll be there!

(There was then a transition with a bus passing and we see Madison coming out of the Jr. high where she is now. She see Harry, Andy, Carla, Lexy, Emma and her sister. She then ran to join them.)

Madison: Hey! I missed you all!

Harry: Y... You too. So, this new junior high is it?

Madison: Yep, and besides, we don’t have Mr. Sinon and Miss. Simian to ruin our lives. Oh! I have to show you my two new best friends!

Carla (upset): I can’t believe it! You replaced me?!

Madison: But no, no one can be as stupid and stubborn as you. (behind her) Madeline! Jessica! Come see!!

(Two girls appear next to Madison.)

Madison: So there you go. Folks, this is Jessica Blossom and Madeline Justice. Girls, here are some of my friends from Elmore: Carla, Lexy, Emma, Harry, Andy and my twin sister Jessy.

Jessica (greeting gesture): Hi!

Madeline: Nice to meet you.

Harry (gen): H... Hi. Me too.

Lexy: I love your look to both of you.

Emma (to Jessica): I love your antlers, I find them too beautiful.

Jessica: Thank you!

Madison: By the way, what are you doing here?

Jessy: By the way, we are...

Carla: Something to say to the three of you!

Madison: What is it?

Emma: A talent show, we came to ask you to participate.

(The three girls looked at each other in amazement. At the same time they turned to Elmore’s students and spoke in unison).

Madison, Madeline and Jessica: OF COURSE WE WILL PARTICIPATE!!

Andy (almost crying): My ears...

Carla: Great! We already gave the principals a registration form. How about we start working?

Everybody: Let’s go!

Jessy (mumbling): Yeah...

(They went to Madison and Jessy’s house to start getting ready.)

Madison: Hi there, ma.

Jessy: We’re back.

Jane and Candy: Hi, kids

Soffy: Oh there are too many people...

Kim (happy): Hi girls, did... (sees the number of friends coming back, her good mood goes down)...you had a good day?

Madison: No time to talk to you, we have work to do. (to her friends) Come, we go to my room.

Harry (gen): Aren’t we better off working in the living room?

Carla (arm grab): Don’t ask.

(Madison, Madeline, and Jessica went to the twins' room and decided to do a concert. So they formed small groups: Lexy and Emma were busy training the girls to do a little choreography, Harry and Andy helped them write a song and Carla helped Jessy make an outfit for the band.)

Carla (looking at Jessy’s sketches): Wow, the outfits are going to be great!

Jessy: Thank you, I love sewing so it will be easy.

Madison (sweating because of the dance): Hey you two,... less blah, more action!...

Andy (to the three of Sweet Little Love): By the way, you need a band name, right?

Madeline: Oh well?

Emma: Yeah, I can help you if you don’t.

Madison (smiles and looks at Jessica and Madeline): No no, I have the perfect name for the three of us.

(D-Day came quickly, many residents came and the gym was crowded. The group of three girls pacientait backstage and their turn approached more and more. Carla, Lexy, Emma and Harry were bringing the necessary instruments for the band, Andy and Jessy were with the rest of the Dream Team to encourage the 3 girls.)

Madeline (snuggling up with Jessica): I’m nervous!

Penny: Don’t worry, it’s gonna be okay.

Jessica: Yes, but everyone who came before us was terrible... We don’t want to make a fool of ourselves.

Bubblegum: Pull yourself together! Look at Madison, she doesn’t fear the eyes of others.

Madison (exes of trust): Yeah, I’m not afraid of anything!

Carrie: So stop shaking your legs so much. It looks like jelly...

Worris (kicks down the door): Guys, there’s a problem!

(They hurried to the stage, but as soon as a thick black smoke prevented them from breathing and seeing correctly what was going on. They heard practically nothing because everyone was wandering around shouting fire. Madison was devastated.)

Cordelia (coughing): What’s going on?

Melody (ditto): They were about to call Madison’s band when the electrical installations caught fire!

Freddy (ditto): It’s not normal! We had checked everything before!

Jessy: That means one thing; someone sabotaged them.

Carla (look up): And I think I know who did this...

(At the end of her sentence, the two culprits who admired their carnage from the top of the stage laughed at the bursts and appeared in the flames.)

Kelly (evil laugh): Well what, what happens to you?

Kate: It looks like we just ruined the talent show, we also have the right to participate!

Madison (very angry): You will pay me dearly!

Emma: Is that Kate and Kelly?

Gumball: Who else do you want it to be? After all, it’s the "evil twin sisters".

Emma (playful, run to them): Hi cousins! Are you okay? You came to see me, right?

Kelly (shocked): Emma?! What are you doing here? It’s dangerous!!

Kate (gen): S... Hi Emma...

Lexy (shocked): "Cousins".... She said "cousins"...

Carrie (same): After all, they have the same last name...

Kate (to Kelly): Well, just because Emma’s here doesn’t mean we’re not going to ruin Henderson’s life.

Kelly (to Kate): I agree. We just avoid hurting Emma and everything will be fine.

Kate (to Madison): So our surprise is a real fireball, huh?

Madison (devastated): No but you believe where?! It’s not going?! I worked hard to get there!!

Kelly (to Kate): It’s not funny. She was supposed to cry all the tears from her body, not scream.

Madison: I'll destroy your misplaced pride, you'll see! (to the Dream Team) Attack, friends!

Jessica and Madeline: Wait, Madison!

(The most skilled members of the Dream Team hasten to climb the top of the electrical installations while the rest were busy preparing a trap with ropes and sand bags. The others also extinguish the fire with fire extinguishers. Once surrounded by the group, the twins sisters were fighting like rabid lionesses and this did not prevent them from getting caught in the ropes that were lying around. They fell but no one saw or they landed. Once the fire was extinguished, there was only half of the scene left and the whole gym smelled of burn. The teachers came in panic.)

Miss Brownie : What is going on here ?!

Mr Small : Kids, are you okay?

Gumball (sad): Yes, but the gym and completely burned... We will not be able to save the school...

Jessica: That’s out of the question!

Madeline: You all went to so much trouble to save your school, it’s not fair that your only chance to save it went to ashes.

Jessica: Exactly! Me, Madeline and Madison are playing here and now, even though the gym is ash!

Madison (tears of joy): Thank you friends!

Darwin: But... there is no light and no one to look at...

Carrie: It’s okay just to attract them.

Carla: It's our round, Lumière !

(In a single gesture of hand, Carla and Lumière emitted large halos of lights to replace the projectors. The crowd that had just left the gymnasium had come back and sat down to listen to the concert that the students had to submit. Cordelia grabbed a microphone and went to speak before Madison whispered something in his ear and backed away immediately afterwards.)

Cordelia: Ladies and gentelemen, I ask you a thunderous applause for this girls-band coming to make this debut on stage: The Love Squad!!

(There was a crowd of applause and a few seconds were enough for the three girls to start playing.)

Madison :

* Freak the freak out

Are you listening?

Hear me talk, hear me sing

Open up the door

Is it less? Is it more?

When you tell me to beware

Are you here? Are you there?

Is it something I should know?

Easy come, easy go

Nodding your head, don't hear a word I said

I can't communicate

When you wait, don't relate

I try to talk to you, but you never even knew

So, what's it gonna be?

Tell me, can you hear me?

I'm so sick of it, your attention deficit

Never listen, you never listen

I'm so sick of it, so I'll throw another fit

Never listen, you never listen

I scream your name, it always stays the same

I scream and shout

So what I'm gonna do now is freak the freak out (Hey)

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa-oh

Patience running thin

Running thin, come again

Tell me what I get, opposite, opposite

Show me what is real

If it breaks, does it heal?

Open up your ear

Why you think that I'm here?

Keep me in the dark, are you even thinking of me?

Is someone else above me? Gotta know, gotta know

What am I gonna do? 'Cause I can't get through to you

So, what's it gonna be? Tell me, can you hear me?

(Can you hear me?)

I'm so sick of it, your attention deficit

Never listen, never listen

I'm so sick of it, so I'll throw another fit

Never listen, never listen

I scream your name, it always stays the same

I scream and shout

So what I'm gonna do now is freak the freak out (Hey)

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa-oh

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa-oh

Easy come, easy go (Hey)

Easy come, easy go

(Can you hear me?)

I scream your name, it always stays the same

I scream and shout

So what I'm gonna do now is freak the freak out (Hey)

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa-oh

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa-oh

I scream your name

But you never listen

No, you never listen

But you never listen

(Madeline was drumming, Jessica was on bass and Madison was singing and this time nothing and no one could stop them. )
