## Transcript:

In the future, Ricky and Kevin were walking into school together.

Ricky: It was so cool of my dads to let you sleep over last night.

Kevin: Yeah. But I hate lying to my mom. It’s been a few weeks since we started dating...and I wanna tell her.

Ricky: Yeah. You don’t want to tell her. You know who else you don’t wanna tell?

Ricky pointed to the Ashleys, who were sitting by the steps.

Kevin: Ugh! The Ashleys! Ever since they transferred to this school, all they’ve been was really obnoxious!

Ricky: Right?

Kevin: Let’s just get inside and not draw attention to ourselves…

Ricky and Kevin proceeded to the steps, where the Ashleys interrupted them.

Ashley A: Well, well, well…

Ricky: It’s not what it looks. Kevin and I are just friends.

Ashley B: Oh really?

Kevin: Yep! Best friends. Now, we really gotta go.

Ricky and Kevin went inside.

Ashley Q: Those two are so…

The Ashleys (in unison): SCANDALOUS!!!

The Ashleys laughed.

In history class, Ricky and Kevin were sitting together in the back of the class.

Ricky: It’s a shame your mom’s the teacher. We can’t do anything that gives us away of us being a couple.

Kevin: Maybe I wanna tell her. Besides, she may be totally cool about us dating…

Ricky: Doubt it…

Mandee went up to them and looked mad.

Mandee: Ricky. Kevin. A word?

Ricky and Kevin got up.

Mandee led them out into the hall.

Mandee: You two cannot disrupt my class! One more time, and you two get a detention.

Kevin: But mom!

Mandee: It’s Ms. Cramp to you here, Kevin!

Ricky: Don’t worry. We won’t, Ms. Cramp.

Mandee: Good. Now get back inside.

Ricky and Kevin headed back into the classroom.

During recess, Kevin was on the swings with Pentre and Junior.

Kevin: I don’t know what to do about my mom…

Junior: And what about her?

Kevin: I really want to tell her that I’m dating Ricky, but-

Pentre: Wait - you’re dating Ricky?

Kevin: Yeah. Anyways, I’m worried she might have a problem with it…

Pentre: And you’re dating Ricky. Why didn’t you tell me?! It was my idea, you know!

Kevin: I know-

Pentre: Please tell her! She’d be glad to know it was my idea!

Kevin: Will you quit it!? I’m telling my mom. But not until after school. Okay?

Pentre: Okay…

Junior: And what do you mean it’s YOUR idea, Pentre?

Pentre: Gotta go.

Pentre ran off.

Kevin sighed.

Kevin: Thanks...for nothing.

After school, Kevin went home, where Mandee and Jackie were sitting on the couch watching TV.

Kevin: Mom. I had no idea Jackie came over.

Jackie: And I had no idea you’d be home from school already!

Kevin: Mom, I really need to tell you something. But, now that Jackie’s here, I guess I’ll do my homework…

Kevin started to walk away.

Mandee stopped him.

Mandee: Kevin. Sit.

Kevin sat down.

Mandee: What is it you want to tell me, son?

Kevin sighed.

Kevin: It’s Ricky. We’re dating.

Mandee and Jackie looked horrified.

Kevin: Well? Mom?

Mandee: Well? NOTHING! You can’t see him again!

Kevin: But why!?

Mandee: Because my son is NOT dating some low-class, uncool...BOY! No. You need a cool, well-liked, high-class...uh...GIRL!

Jackie: My daughter Ashley. Yeah. She’s perfect.

Kevin: Wait - ASHLEY! Like as in - ASHLEY B!? She’s your daughter. I should’ve known. I’m out.

Kevin started to leave again.

Mandee stopped him.

Mandee: It’s either you date Ashley B...or you’re grounded for a year. Which means… No computer, no phone, no Nintendo Switch II, no sports, no going out, no eating out, no-

Kevin: No going to school?

Mandee: You have to go to school, sweetie. Now what’ll it be? You and Ashley B become a couple or you’re grounded.

Kevin: I guess...I’ll give Ashley B a chance. Now can I go?

Mandee sighed.

Mandee: I guess so.

Kevin hugged his mother and left.

Mandee: I so don’t trust him.

Jackie: You’re not thinking what I’m thinking…

Mandee: Oh, it’s that and so much more! I think he’s still going to see that...Ricky!

Jackie: So what do we do?

Mandee smirked.

Mandee: Nothing...for now. But I’ll be watching him.

Meanwhile, at the Miller-Robinson home, Ricky was in his room doing his homework.

Roger came in.

Roger: There’s someone who wants to see you.

Ricky: Really?!

Ricky went to the front door and opened it to see Kevin.

Ricky: KEVIN!

Kevin: Ricky, we have to talk about something…

Ricky: Roger. Do you, uh, mind?

Roger: Oh sure! I don’t mind at all! You have fun with your boyfriend.

Roger left.

Kevin: Okay, I think we should go somewhere private.

Ricky: My room it is!

Ricky and Kevin headed to Ricky’s room.

~ ~ ~

In Ricky’s room, Ricky and Kevin sat on Ricky’s bed.

Ricky: Okay. What is it?

Kevin: I...think we have to break up.

Ricky started to cry.

Ricky: But Kevin-

Kevin: Don’t worry! I don’t mean we actually have to break up!

Ricky: What are you saying?

Kevin: Well… I told my mom we’re dating, and...she didn’t take it well. So she decided to set me up with Jackie’s daughter. Ashley B. And I don’t want to let down my mom. But at the same time, I don’t want to date that brat. I want you! You’re the only person I wanna spend the rest of my life with!

Ricky eyed Kevin.

Kevin: Like you weren’t thinking it. Anyways… I wanna keep dating you. But whenever my mom’s around, I have to have a...relationship with Ashley B. I hope you don’t mind.

Ricky: I totally get it. Although, you should just tell her I’m the one you truly like.

Kevin: I can’t do that. If she catches me with you, she’s grounding me for a year - with NOTHING to do!

Ricky: Fine. I’ll play a part in your plan. But she’s gonna find out eventually…

Kevin sighed.

Kevin: I guess so. But this has to be done…

~ ~ ~

The next day, Kevin got a ride to school from his mother.

Mandee: Okay. I’ll be monitoring the playground for morning recess, son. You remember the plan?

Kevin: I do. You know, maybe Ashley B isn’t the worst person in the world. You know...she’s kinda...cute.

Mandee: You really think so?

Kevin nodded.

Mandee: Oh, that’s great! You’re the greatest!

Mandee hugged Kevin and left happily.

Kevin: Great. I can’t believe I’m actually going to do this…

~ ~ ~

Kevin headed straight to the Ashleys’ new clubhouse.

The Ashleys stepped out to see Kevin staring at the clubhouse.

Ashley A: Can I help you, Kevin?

Kevin: Uhhhh…

Ashley B: No worries, Ashley A. He’s like, totally cool now! My mom, like totally approves of him!

Ashley Q: You gotta be kidding me!

Ashley T: Call us when you take care of this...creep.

The other Ashleys left.

Kevin: Well, Ashley B… I decided… I like you.

Ashley B: You-you-you… LIKE me?

Kevin started sweating nervously.

Kevin: Uhhh...yeah. Uh, you’re one of a kind. And...will you be my girlfriend?

Ashley B: Okay. But why are you sweating? It’s totes gross!

Kevin: Ohhhh… Yeah...you’re just the hottest thing here...when I’m around you...I can’t stop sweating.

Ashley B: You really think so? Aw! You’re so sweet!

Ashley B grabbed Kevin’s hand, to him sweating even more.

Ashley B: And now let’s go rub it in Ricky’s face that WE’RE now dating!

Kevin looked more nervous.

Kevin: Okay…

~ ~ ~

Ashley B led Kevin over to the swings, where Ricky was.

Ricky: Kevin! Uh-how nice to see you. Hi, Ashley B.

Ashley B: Kevin and I are now, like, an item! Aren’t we cute together?

Kevin whispered to Ricky.

Kevin: Get me out of this.

Ricky: I will...hang on.

Ashley B: So, Ricky. It’s clear you and Kevin barely lasted a week. So, you are probably really upset now!

Ricky: Actually, Ashley B… I couldn’t be happier that you and Kevin are an item!

Ashley B: Ohhhh, you’re so cool for thinking that! Wait til I tell the others!

Ashley B ran off.

Kevin: Help me, Ricky! I can’t possibly go through with this!

Ricky: NOW you tell me! What happened yesterday?

Kevin: This is never going to work out! I am telling my mom the truth! And if I’m grounded? Big deal! I can STILL see you at school!

Ricky: Good point. But we’re going to need some help if we’re going to pull this off…

At lunch, Ricky and Kevin went up to Foop and David, who were sitting together.

Kevin: Mr. Miller, Mr. Cosma...you two should help us with something.

Ricky: It’s a…chemistry problem.

Kevin: AND a probability problem.

Foop: Oh, of course we’d help!

David: Certainly. Step into our office…

~ ~ ~

Ricky, Kevin, Foop, and David were in the science and math classroom.

David: As you know, Foop and I decided to combine our classroom.

Foop: I think they know that. They were in our class last period.

Ricky: Okay. Well, Kevin and I here have perfect chemistry…

Kevin: But my mom thinks we shouldn’t be dating. And to make matters worse, she sets me up with snobby Ashley B…

Ricky: What is the probability of Kevin and I being together?

David: Well, that’s an interesting equation…

Kevin: Isn’t it? Now please. Text my mom your answer to this problem, both of you.

Foop: Very well. You two really do have serious chemistry. Almost as much as me and Goldie. You two have potential.

David: But as for your mom… It is highly unlikely that she’ll win this argument. You see, it’s highly probable that you two will end up together. It’s pure science.

Foop: Yeah. If your mom...or snobby Ashley B...can’t see that you two have chemistry, it’s their loss. Not yours, because you two are wonderful kids.

Kevin: Thanks, Mr. Cosma, Mr. Miller.

Ricky: We really appreciate it!

Ricky and Kevin left.

After school, Ricky and Kevin, along with Robert and Riley went to Kevin’s house, where Mandee was chopping vegetables.

Kevin pulled Ricky, Robert, and Riley back.

Kevin: We gotta play this right. Besides, she has a knife, so she’s armed in case if things get ugly.

Ricky: Got it...but we should probably just tell her.

Robert: Whatever you two kids are planning, I support it.

Riley: Yeah. Kevin, your mom isn’t the easiest to get along with.

Kevin: Don’t I know it!

Kevin, Ricky, Robert, and Riley went into the kitchen.

Kevin: Oh...hello, mother.

Mandee: What are...they...doing here?

Kevin: Mom, I know you don’t want me to see Ricky. But I thought their dads could shed some light.

Mandee noticed Robert and Riley.

Mandee: Hello. And what are you two doing here?

Robert: Look, Mandee. You can’t hinder true love.

Riley: You tried it with us. But now you’re doing it to your own son.

Robert: Can’t you just give it a rest?

Mandee: You know I DON’T support gay couples… It’s just wrong...and unnatural.

Kevin: It may be to you, mother. But Ricky and I are humans...

Ricky: ...and we deserve to be treated like humans.

Robert: Yeah! And so do Riley and me! We both have been victimized by you and Jackie since we were 13! Why? Why must you do this to people?

Mandee: Look, I advise you three get out of my house before I call the cops.

Robert: Really? Well, come on, Riley, Ricky. We’re going home.

Riley: And not because you threatened us...but because we want to.

Ricky: But I’m staying right here, dads. I wanna spend the night with Kevin.

Robert: Alright. Have fun!

Robert and Riley left.

Mandee: You are not staying here, Ricky.

Kevin: Don’t worry, mom. He’s not. He and I are staying somewhere else…

Ricky and Kevin left hand in hand.

Mandee: You do not know who you just messed with. Now...I’m mad.

Mandee kept chopping the vegetables super aggressively.

~ ~ ~

Meanwhile, Ricky and Kevin crashed at Robert and Riley’s restaurant.

Ricky: This place is perfect. Not only does it have a whole buffet already made for us to eat for dinner, but there’s also a nice comfy sleeping space.

Kevin: This is sweet. And for the record, I’m never coming back home.

Ricky: And you don’t have to. You’re always safe with me.

Ricky and Kevin hugged, then kissed.

Kevin blushed.

Kevin: That was nice.
