## Script

INT. THE COLORS CASTLE - JEREMIAH & CLEO'S ROOM - NIGHT

[Arion is seen walking into the room, holding a children's book.]

Arion: "Okay, littlest siblings. It's time for a bedtime s- Jerry!"

[Jeremiah is seen jumping on his bed, but quickly stops when he sees Arion.]

Jeremiah: "Hi."

Arion: "Jeremiah, why are you jumping on your bed?"

Jeremiah: "Enerdy!" (Energy!)

Arion: "Energy? But it's night! You should be tired! Look, Cleo is already fast asleep!"

[It is true, as Cleo is fast asleep in her bed.]

Jeremiah: "Brownie."

Arion: "Huh? Brownie? What do you mean Brownie?"

Jeremiah: "Hmm.."

[Flashback to minutes earlier. Jeremiah is in his pajamas and walks into the kitchen.]

Jeremiah: "Audrey, snack." (Audrey, I want a snack!)

Audrey: "What? Hungry again? We ate dinner almost an hour ago!"

Jeremiah: "Snack??"

Audrey: "Well.."

Jeremiah: "Pleasee..??"

Audrey: "Oh, alright. You can have ONE brownie."

Jeremiah: "Yay-hoo!! Brownie!!"

[It then shows Jeremiah eating three brownies, as the flashback ends.]

INT. THE COLORS CASTLE - JEREMIAH & CLEO'S ROOM - NIGHT

Jeremiah: "Three."

Arion: "Audrey gave you three brownies?!"

Jeremiah: [Nods erratically and claps]

Arion: [Clearly frustrated] "AUDREYY!!"

Audrey: "Yeah?"

Arion: "Did you give Jeremiah THREE brownies after dinner??"

Audrey: "Well, technically it was an HOUR after dinner."

Arion: "What?? Why?!"

Audrey: "He wanted one!"

Arion: "One..."

Audrey: "Well... three. Hehe."

Arion: [Sighs] "Audrey, you can't keep giving in!"

Audrey: "Big brother, please. You give in LOTS of times."

Arion: "Huh? When? When have I given in??"

Audrey: "Oh, there's LOTS of times. Like when Robert asked if he could have the whole castle to himself for a week? Remember that??"

[Flashback to Robert kicking everyone out the castle.]

Robert: "My castle for only a week! Then you can all come back in!"

[He closes the door. A week later, the castle is in pieces. Flashback ends.]

INT. THE COLORS CASTLE - JEREMIAH & CLEO'S ROOM - NIGHT

Arion: ".. Touche. But this case is different! It's time to sleep and Jeremiah is now gonna be hyped because of those brownies!"

[A loud crash is heard. Audrey and Arion look up and see Jeremiah's head in the ceiling.]

Jeremiah: "Um?? Help please??"

INT. THE COLORS CASTLE - JEREMIAH & CLEO'S ROOM - NIGHT

[Audrey and Arion are trying to put Jeremiah to sleep.]

Arion: "Okay, Jeremiah. Me and Audrey are gonna step out and get a bedtime story for you, okay?"

Jeremiah: [Scratches head and shrugs] "Okay!"

Arion: "Yep."

[Audrey and Arion slowly walk out the room, as Audrey quickly closes the door, locking it.]

Jeremiah (o.s): "Heeyy!!" [Starts hitting the door] "Let me outt!!"

Arion: "Nuh-uh, Jerry! Go back to bed."

Jeremiah: "Pleasseeee, let me out??"

Arion: "Nope."

Jeremiah: [Desperate] "Pleaseee??"

Audrey: "Oh, pleaseee let him out."

Arion: "Come on, Audrey. We've gotta be firm."

Jeremiah (o.s): "Want a drink of water!"

Arion: "You already had one!"

Jeremiah (o.s): "I have to go to the bafroom!"

Arion: [Confused] ".. You went already!"

Jeremiah (o.s): "Pleaaseeee! Let me out!"

Audrey: "Oh, come on bro! Just let him outt!"

Jeremiah: "Don't you like me anymore?? Do you hate me??"

[Awkward Silence. Arion sighs.]

Arion: "Oh for crying out loud.."

[Arion opens the door as Jeremiah is standing in front of them. He smiles big as he runs out of the room, happily.]

Jeremiah: "Yahoo!! Yippee! Let's party, dudes!"

[He runs past Audrey and Arion. Arion looks at Audrey with a frustrated look, as she shrugs.]
