## Transcript:

It was the day of the senior prom. Lisa, David, Darcy, Foop, and Goldie were discussing their prom plans during lunch.

Darcy: David and I are going together! Isn’t that right, David?

David: That’s absolutely right! Meet me there right when it starts. If I run a little late, know I have to finish up some homework.

Darcy: Okay!

Lisa: Well, Hugh and I are going together. I asked him yesterday, and he said YES!

David glared at Lisa.

Lisa: What? You CHOSE to break up with me and go out with Darcy of all people!

Darcy: What’s THAT supposed to mean?

Lisa smirked.

Lisa: Oh, I think you know…

Darcy: Hmpfh!

Darcy left annoyed.

David: Ugh. Glad she’s gone. I don’t intend on taking her to prom. I’M going to 1501 to beat the snot out of Zhan Tiri.

Foop: But David! It’s PROM!

Goldie: Foopie and I will go together!

Foop: We might even win prom king and queen! Back when my parents were in high school, THEY won prom king and queen!

Goldie: And I have just the cutest dress, Foopie!

Foop and Goldie left holding hands.

Lisa: Well, Hugh and I will go in hand in hand!

David: ENOUGH Hugh, Lisa! I tried getting along with him for A DAY when my mom made me go to 1502 with him! But he and Zhan Tiri were so chummy, it made me sick!

Lisa: Okay, fine! I hope you enjoy 1501, though. Darcy’ll be so miserable!

Lisa grinned evilly.

David: That she will!

Lisa and David high fived.

After school let out, Anti-Goldie and Poof went up to Foop and Goldie.

Anti-Goldie: Poofie and I intend to win prom king and queen!

Foop: Really?! Since when?

Goldie: Come on, Anti-Goldie. This isn’t supposed to be a competition.

Poof: But it is!

Anti-Goldie: Poof’s parents ALMOST won prom king and queen, but for a “lucky” moment, YOUR parents, Foop, WON! My parents were in charge of the voting ballots, so I don’t know HOW your foolish parents could’ve won! I tell you, if Zhan Tiri takes over the prom, SHE’LL see Poof and I for the king and queen we ARE!

Foop rolled his eyes.

Foop: Whatever.

Goldie: Come on, Foopie! Lisa and I were going to go dress shopping and I’d like to get to the store before it closes!

Goldie and Foop left.

Anti-Goldie: They'll so pay if they win prom king and queen!

Poof: But what are WE going to do?

Anti-Goldie grinned evilly.

Anti-Goldie: Leave that to me!

At Robert and Riley’s house, David was setting up his time travel wristwatch.

Greg entered.

Greg: Hey, brother! Whatcha doing?

David: Oh. I’m getting ready for the worst possible moment. Taking Darcy to prom.

Greg: Well, actually, I went to prom with Darcy last year, and it wasn’t too bad.

David: We shall see…

Greg smiled and left.

David: Cause I’m not taking her! I’m going to Corona!!

David laughed maniacally.

At the mall, Lisa and Goldie were finding the perfect dress for prom.

Goldie: I have no idea what to get…

Lisa was studying an orange dress.

Lisa: This dress screams Goldie!

Goldie looked at the dress closely.

Goldie: It’s… perfect! What are you wearing, Lisa?

Lisa: Oh. I already got my dress picked out months in advance… I really wanted to surprise Hugh!

Goldie: You and Hugh are cute together. Almost like me and my Foopie!

Lisa: We sure are! Now let’s get some sushi at the food court!

Goldie: Oh yeah!

Poof and Anti-Goldie were overhearing from a bench near the store.

Poof: Goldie won’t be prom queen. Foop won’t even be prom king.

Anti-Goldie: I know. No matter. I have a plan…

Anti-Goldie grinned evilly.

Poof: But what are WE going to do?

Anti-Goldie whispered her plan to Poof.

Poof grinned evilly.

Poof: That sounds good. Real good.

~ ~ ~

At the high school, Poof and Anti-Goldie snuck in and found the ballots for prom king and queen in Principal Adams’ office.

Poof: Perfect! Once we remove Foop and Goldie from the running, WE’LL be prom king and queen!

Anti-Goldie: I mean, we DO have the second most votes!

Poof and Anti-Goldie began taking out all of Foop and Goldie’s votes.

They could hear footsteps heading towards the office.

Poof: Hide!

Anti-Goldie: Right!

They hid underneath Principal Adams’ desk.

Principal Adams came in and was on her cell phone.

Principal Adams: No! The giant elephant is WAY too expensive for prom! I already nearly blew the budget with the sushi bar!

Poof whispered to Anti-Goldie.

Poof: What are we going to do? She’s not leaving any time soon!

Anti-Goldie: Leave that to me…

Anti-Goldie started ripping up Foop and Goldie’s ballots and stuck them in the trash can underneath Principal Adams’ desk.

Anti-Goldie: Now we make a run for it.

Anti-Goldie and Poof dashed towards the door, but Principal Adams caught them.

Principal Adams: I’ll have to call you back…

Principal Adams hung up her cell phone and glared at Poof and Anti-Goldie.

Principal Adams: You two have some explaining to do.

Anti-Goldie: Oh, we just came to visit your beautiful office. Since, you know. We’ll be graduating soon, and-

Principal Adams: Riiight! Well, you two…

Principal Adams turned around and looked in the ballots for prom king and queen, just as Poof and Anti-Goldie ran off.

Principal Adams: What happened to half of the ballots for prom king and queen?!

Poof: THAT was a close one!

Anti-Goldie: But that was just the beginning! We make sure Foop and Goldie don’t make it to the prom.

Poof: Oh, that’s good!

They high fived and laughed maniacally.

At the Loud’s house, Lisa was getting ready for prom.

Rita and Lynn Sr came out and saw Lisa.

Rita: Don’t you just look beautiful?

Lynn Sr: Our baby girl’s all grown up!

Lynn Sr began crying.

Lisa: For the love of Pythagoras! I’m almost 18 years old. I’m not a baby anymore.

Rita: Aw, but you’ll always be OUR baby!

The doorbell rang.

Lisa: That’s Hugh. Sorry. Can’t stay and chat. Got a prom to attend.

Lisa opened the door and Hugh came in.

Hugh: My, my. This house hasn’t changed a bit. You ready, Lisa?

Rita: Wait! We should take prom pictures!

Lynn Sr: All our kids have pictures on their prom nights.

Rita: Well. Except for Lucy. She and Silas went to the cemetery on their prom night.

Lisa: Of course. But Hugh and I must be going. We agreed to catch Kate and Dawn, and Matt and Danny to get dinner at Robert and Riley’s restaurant.

Rita: Oh, alright. Just one picture, though?

Lisa: Fine!

Lisa and Hugh posed by the door as Rita took a picture through her phone.

Lisa: Now Hugh and I must be going!

Hugh: Bye, Mr. and Mrs. Loud! I’m welcome any time, right?

Lynn Sr: Rightie O!

Lisa and Hugh left.

Rita began crying.

Rita: They grow up SO fast!!

Meanwhile, at the Miller’s home, David was preparing himself for the epic defeat of Zhan Tiri.

Robert and Riley came rushing into David and Greg’s room.

Robert: Riley and I want to make sure you have your corsage to give to Darcy.

Riley: It’s important in a girl’s life on prom!

David: Ha, really?! I’m not going to prom with Darcy! I’m going to Corona to help Varian and Cassandra defeat Zhan Tiri.

Robert: But Darcy called. She was wondering about the corsage.

David: That call must be to Greg. HE’S planning on taking Darcy to prom…

Riley: But he graduated last year…

David: ...Uh. I know. But you know Greg!

Robert: Know that Darcy will probably miss having you there, David!

David: I know.

Robert and Riley mussed David’s hair and left.

David grinned evilly.

David: Oh. I know.

David turned on his wrist-watch and a portal came out and sucked him in.

Meanwhile, at the Cosma home, Foop and Goldie were admiring each other’s looks.

Goldie: You look so dapper, Foopie!

Foop: Well, Goldie, you look like a queen!

Goldie blushed.

Anti-Cosmo entered and saw Foop and Goldie.

Anti-Cosmo: Well, don’t you two look fancy?

Foop: Well, it IS prom. The night of the year.

Anti-Cosmo: About that. Your principal wanted me to chaperone the prom.

Foop: But why!?

Anti-Cosmo: Last year’s prom was totally out of control! Lucas, Marcus, Mike, and Gus ruined it for everyone with their constant disrespect for the tradition!

Foop: Well, they WON’T be at this prom, father. So you don’t have to worry.

Goldie: It’s one thing to have your father be your teacher...but to chaperone the one dance that’s supposed to be ours?

Foop: It’d totally ruin our reputation.

Anti-Cosmo: Well, you will hardly know I’m there. I’m not like your mother, who…

Anti-Cosmo looked around.

Anti-Cosmo: Who seemed to have disappeared.

Foop: Probably getting more fried chicken. But dad, please!

Anti-Cosmo: Sorry. But you’ll have fun there. I guarantee it. Who knows? You two MAY even win prom king and queen just like your old folks did, Foop!

Foop: I guess. That I’ll look forward to. Come on, Goldie!

Foop and Goldie headed out the door.

Anti-Cosmo: And I guess I’ll be right behind them!

Anti-Cosmo snapped his fingers and vanished suddenly.

At Robert and Riley’s restaurant, Lisa and Hugh sat over by Danny, Matt, Kate, and Dawn and had a big platter of sushi in front of them.

Lisa: Wow. We’ll get sushi at the prom, too. Principal Adams said that she got a sushi bar as well as a punch bowl! So we mustn't overdo it.

Danny: Oh, no worries, Lisa. We’ll be okay.

Matt: Besides. We also got some lo-mein. So we could do this…

Matt twirled a bit of pasta at the same time as Danny, and the pasta met in the middle as they kissed.

Dawn: Awww, Kate, why don’t we do the same thing?

Kate: No. I don’t think so…

Dawn: Awww, come on!

Lisa: Well, we mustn't be late for the prom.

Hugh: We still got plenty of time, Lis.

Lisa: I know. But we have to surprise Foop and Goldie when they win prom king and queen.

Danny: About that, Lisa. We have some unfortunate news…

Lisa: Yeah?

Danny: Matt and I overheard Poof and Anti-Goldie talking about RUINING Foop and Goldie’s chances to win prom king and queen!

Lisa looked furious.

Lisa: HOW DARE THEY!? Come on, Hugh! Let’s get them!

Lisa pulled Hugh away and they both left.

Kate: Well. More for us, I guess…

Danny: We should probably help too.

Danny, Matt, Kate, and Dawn all followed Lisa and Hugh.

~ ~ ~

Meanwhile, in Corona, David found Varian and Cassandra, who were near Rapunzel’s castle.

Varian: David! What’s up?

David: Well. I’m SUPPOSED to be at prom with stupid Darcy, but I decided I’d rather spend it with you two.

Cassandra: Good call. That girl would NOT stop talking about giraffes in Corona...or the lack of them…

Varian: I say we should all get some alchemy in before…

A dark cloud appeared above Corona.

David: Oh no…

Zhan Tiri appeared suddenly.

Zhan Tiri: Oh, yes! I shall rule Corona! You’ll see!

David: Zhan Tiri, don’t you have anything better to do?

Zhan Tiri: I heard you stood up your girlfriend on prom night. I’m impressed.

David: Go away, Zhan Tiri. I came here to DESTROY you. NOT join you!

Zhan Tiri: Too bad. You’d make a wonderful ally.

David: Okay. What gives? Normally you say you hate me, now you say you want me to JOIN you? Well, you know what I have to say to that?

David took out a potion and poured it down Zhan Tiri’s dress.

David looked at Varian and Cassandra.

David: Let’s run.

David, Varian, and Cassandra all ran away.

Zhan Tiri: You will PAY for this!

Zhan Tiri began to run after them, but became the size of a giant grape.

At the prom, Darcy was in tears because David hadn’t shown up yet.

Darcy: I don’t believe it! He was supposed to come here...WITH me!

Darcy cried some more.

Greg entered the prom.

Greg: David? David? I think you forgot the corsage you were supposed to give Darcy!

Greg noticed Darcy in the corner.

Greg: Hey, Darcy. Have you seen David?

Darcy began crying some more.

Darcy: NO! I HAVEN’T! I tried texting him! I tried calling him! I tried video chatting with him! It’s like he’s ignoring my calls!

Greg: Well. Do you want to dance with me, Darcy?

Darcy wiped away some tears.

Darcy: You mean it?

Greg nodded.

Greg: Here. And have this corsage. It goes wonderfully with your dress.

Darcy hugged Greg.

Darcy: This will be the BEST prom ever!!

~ ~ ~

Foop and Goldie entered the school and started heading to the prom.

Poof came up to them.

Poof: Poof, poof!!

Foop: Oh brother. Poof. Step aside. We need to get to the prom!

Poof: NO!

Poof pushed Foop and Goldie into Mr. Tate’s science room right next to them and locked the door with the keys he got from the janitor’s closet.

Anti-Goldie came out and looked impressed.

Anti-Goldie: Nice work, Poofie. Now let’s proclaim OUR crowns!

Anti-Goldie and Poof laughed maniacally and headed to the prom.

Foop and Goldie could overhear in the science room.

Foop: Ohhhh no… What are we going to do?

Goldie: We COULD always try poofing out of here?

Foop: Yeah. But remember the last time something similar to this happened?

Goldie: That’s RIGHT! Poof and Anti-Goldie threatened to take our magic away!

Foop: That Poof doesn’t have the guts. But Anti-Goldie. We should both be scared of her.

Goldie nodded just as Anti-Cosmo flashed in.

Anti-Cosmo: Foop! Goldie! What are you doing in here?

Foop: Well, father! Poof and Anti-Goldie locked us in here.

Anti-Cosmo: Well, you were fairies! Just poof yourselves to the prom!

Goldie: Well, we experienced something similar to this.

Foop: And Poof and Anti-Goldie said they’d take our magic if we poofed out.

Anti-Cosmo: I don’t believe this. Foop, you clearly have some of your mother’s brain. Come on. Let’s show them!

Anti-Cosmo snapped his fingers.

He, Foop, and Goldie flashed out of Mr. Tate’s science classroom.

At the prom, Principal Adams was announcing the winners of prom king and queen.

Principal Adams: Now is every nomination for prom king and queen on the stage?

Anti-Goldie and Poof, Kate and Dawn, and Matt and Danny were on the stage.

Principal Adams: Where are Foop and Goldie?

Poof: Oh. Foop and Goldie won’t be making it…

Poof and Anti-Goldie snickered and gave each other a low-high five.

Principal Adams: Okay… and the winners for prom king and queen are…

Foop, Goldie, and Anti-Cosmo came running into the prom.

Foop: WAIT!

Poof: Foop…

Goldie: Before you announce the winners, Poof and Anti-Goldie sabotaged us!

Principal Adams: Is this true?

Anti-Cosmo held up Principal Adam’s trash can and began taking out the ballots that Anti-Goldie tore up.

Anti-Cosmo: THESE are Foop and Goldie’s ballots! They won the most and should win prom king and queen!

Lisa: It’s true. I was responsible for calculating them all yesterday. They win.

Principal Adams: Well, in that case. Foop and Goldie - you win prom king and queen!

Principal Adams handed Foop a crown, and Goldie a tiara.

Anti-Goldie: It’s not FAIR! It’s NOT FAIR!

Principal Adams: And as for you two…

Principal Adams looked sternly at Poof and Anti-Goldie.

Principal Adams: For the rest of the school year before you two graduate, you’ll be in detention cleaning up the garden for the graduation ceremony.

Poof: NOOOOOOOOO!!

Anti-Goldie: Zhan Tiri WILL be hearing about this!

Anti-Goldie and Poof stormed off.

Foop: Well, Goldie? Shall we dance?

Goldie: I’d love to, Foopie! Or should I say… King Foopie?

Foop giggled.

Foop: And we shall dance, Queen Goldie!

Foop and Goldie began dancing the waltz in the center of the dance floor.

Anti-Cosmo: I can always count on those two!

~ ~ ~

The next day at school, everyone was all talking about the prom.

Lisa ran up to David.

Lisa: David! You missed out! Foop and Goldie won prom king and queen and Poof and Anti-Goldie have detention for trying to sabotage Foop and Goldie’s chances to win.

David: Oh. I know. But I had the best time in Corona. I turned Zhan Tiri into a giant grape! It was classic!

David began laughing.

Darcy went up to David angrily.

Darcy: DAVID! Can you explain to me why you WEREN’T at the prom with me?

David: Well, Darcy. I was on my way… But Robert got injured at his restaurant, so I had to help him at the hospital.

David totally lied.

Darcy: Well. Okay. I’ll see you around…

Darcy left.

David: Phew. That was a close one. Glad she fell for it.

Lisa: David, ya honestly gotta dump her.

David: I would. But I already got another plan in motion for her…

David grinned evilly.
