In this episode: Hannah (13), Jo (11), Tina (11), Rachel (10), Bradley (10), Paul (9), Jon (9), Sam (7)

Hey, Paul.

Hmm?

There’s a girl you like.

I need a girl I like?

No, Bradley. You like every girl. That is the girl that I like.

But, Paul. You never got to do anything about it.

Oh, yeah? Why not?

Because you never do.

Okay then. Well, this time, watch this. (He comes to see her) Hi, how are ya?

GOGirl on Beach #1

Excuse me?

But… What? I…

Well, that went better than usual.

You gotta work on your technique, bro. I mean, watch me. Watch the master.

Hey. How are ya doing? You’re kinda good.

GOGirl on Beach #2

(speaking gibberish and slapping him with her book)

Boys, boys, boys, boys, boys! You want to know how it’s really done. Watch Rachel.

Me?

Yeah, you. You’re the world champion of flirting.

No, I’m not.

Yes, you are. Go on. Look around and tell us if there’s a boy you like. My boys, watch this and laugh.

Okay. First, she spots her victim.

(pointing to that boy) Well, he’s quite cute.

Then, she moves in for the kill.

The prey puts down his book.

He stretches unsuspectingly.

He turns round.

And slowly approaches.

The prey is snared.

Hi.

Hi.

I’m Sam. You’re Rachel, aren’t you?

Yeah. How did you know that?

I’ve seen you around at the beach, and at the cafe.

Oh, really?

Yeah. Listen. I was wondering. It’s my high school prom in a couple days, and I was wondering if you’d like to come with me.

Yeah. I’d love to. That would be great. Um, what should I wear?

Well, it’s quite formal, but I’m sure you’d look great in anything.

Thanks.

That’s outrageous! I’m glad I never behaved like that.

BJBradley and Jon

Me too.

Hey, aren’t you guys with the S Club 7?

AAll

Yeah.

I’ve seen you play at the beach and at the cafe.

Oh, really?

Oh.

Oh, right.

Hey, listen. I was wondering. It’s my high school prom in a couple days, and I was wondering if you guys like to play a few songs.

That’d be great.

Yeah. We… We’d love to.

So what should we wear?

I’m sure you guys look great in anything.

AAll

Aw.

You should’ve said that.

So, I’ll see you in a couple days.

Yeah.

BJBradley, Jon, Hannah and Paul

Yeah.

Mmm. George Clooney’s eyes. The new George Clooney’s smile. And he had George Clooney’s body. It was love at first sight.

JRJo, Rachel and Tina

Aw.

PJPaul, Jon and Bradley

(sigh)

So why are you still with him?

Well, he didn’t quite have George Clooney’s wallet.

You don’t really believe in love at first sight, do ya?

Yeah, I do.

Has it ever actually happened to you?

No.

I had loved her face that once. That was quite nice.

My part of the third sight. Mmm. That was lovely.

Well, I’ve had love at no sight. Beat that.

How did you manage that?

Well, I met him on the internet. We exchanged romantic emails for months. He told me that he was a 45 year old millionaire with his own airplane, but then when I finally met him, he was a 14 year old squirrel with his own skateboard.

Yeah. Well, I think it’s a lot of old rubbish, anyway.

(to Jon) Well, you would.

I’ve had, I’ve had hate of first sight, a mild irritation, a second and, um, you’re not so bad after all at third. Does that count?

No.

Oh.

What’s the matter with him?

I have no idea.

Come on. Let’s go.

Where?

He said we’d write some more songs today. Remember?

Yeah, but what is the point?

There are all these good songs. We’ve got no record contract. We’ve got no money. Our agent is rubbish.

No proper gigs.

What about the prom?

All right. One proper gig.

Yeah. But our agent didn’t even get us there.

Yeah. Guys, I really don’t want us to be one of those bands who just do kids’ parties and old people’s retirement homes and bar mitzvahs.

We’re not going to do that.

No way.

Hey! Guess what, everyone? Our agent’s got us a gig out of a mitzvahs. What?

You see, we’ve gotta get a new agent.

I’m happy to help you with that.

Really? How?

Well, I had a bit of a thing with an agent one time.

Really? Was it love at first sight?

No. It was love at first smell. Or he had this great aftershave.

But, what if I never see her again?

You will.

But, what if she was like the love of my life and I’ve seen her for 20 seconds and that was it, and now I’ve lost her forever.

Yeah. Well, at least it lasted longer than some of Bradley’s relationships.

I was thinking about what you guys said the other day about needing a new agent and I think I have an idea.

Yeah?

Yeah. Well, I did a little bit of acting in the 70s and I had this great agent and he got me this fantastic part on Charlie’s Angels.

You was in Charlie’s Angels?

I was the fourth angel.

There was only 3 angels on Charlie’s Angels.

Well, there were four originally but, um, on the first day of filming, Charlie made a pass with me and, um, I kind of hit him and he ended up in the hospital, so, um, that’s why you never see his face.

So who was your agent?

Oh. Um, Mr. Walters at Walters Wilson and Walters.

AAll

Let’s go get him!

Good luck!

We were wondering if Mr. Walters would like to be our agent.

RReceptionist

His books are full.

We’re really good.

RReceptionist

His books are full.

And we work really hard.

RReceptionist

His books are full.

(clears throats) Okay, without saying the words “His books are full.”, could you possibly tell us when the next available appointment with Mr. Walters is?

RReceptionist

His bo…

Uh, uh, uh, uh.

RReceptionist

May, next year.

You’re joking.

RReceptionist

His books are full.

All right, all right. You get the message.

God, even my dog’s got bigger vocabulary than that.

A lot was a waste of time.

Well, what we need to do is we need to get through her to him.

Yeah, and let them hear some of our music.

Yeah.

Yeah. And how are we gonna do that?

Uh. I’ve got a plan. Huddle, guys.

Pizza.

Parcels.

Champagne.

Flowers.

Cake.

Balloons.

Um, bite on my hamburger?

Bradley, you weren’t listening when I told you the plan, were you?

Not really, no.

Mr. Walters!

Can’t you see I’m busy?

But we’re a band, Mr. Walters.

The S Club 7, Mr. Walters.

And we want to sing you a song.

Troup. Hey, no way.

But we bought you presents.

Well, maybe. Hit it!

CGChorus: girls, boys

S Club (There ain’t no party like an S Club party, oh)

Gonna show you how (Everybody, get down tonight) (Oh, yeah, yeah)

S Club (There ain’t no party like an S Club party)

Gonna take you high (Shake your body from side to side)

PCPost-Chorus: All

(Ooh, ooh) Wave your hands in the air

(Ooh, ooh) Like you just don’t care

(Ooh, ooh) There’s a party over there

(Ooh, ooh) There’s a party over there

Ha, ha! Nothing. But not bad at all. And now get out of here.

No, wait. We’re singing at the high school prom tomorrow night.

Would you come and see us?

Which school?

West Beverly High.

Really? My son goes there.

Oh, great. So does that mean you’re gonna come and see us soon?

Well, you know, I’m not sure the thing is my son doesn’t have a date for the prom.

Oh, that’s a shame.

I said my son doesn’t have a date for the prom.

Yeah, I heard you the first time.

No. I don’t think you did. My son needs a date for the prom.

That’s okay. Rachel will go with him.

What?

How kind of you to offer he accepts.

No, listen. I’m really sorry, but I can’t take your son to the school prom. I already had… (Jo stamps Rachel’s foot) Ow!

Sore foot! She was just gonna say she’s got a sore… uh!

No problem. My son’s not that good dancer, anyway. Leave your address with the secretary. We’ll pick you up at 7pm.

Thanks a lot, guys.

Well, Rach, it’s for the good of the band.

Oh, yeah, and don’t worry about Sam. We’ll take care of him.

Yeah. That’s what worries me.

Oh my God! There she is!

She’s perfect.

She walks a bit slowly though, doesn’t she?

How come he can never catch her up when she walks so slowly?

Hey.

Hi.

The door was unlocked downstairs so I just let myself in.

But you’re early. 2 hours early.

Oh, I’m sorry. You’re not ready yet, are you?

No. But, that’s not the problem. I have something to tell you. I’m afraid I can’t go out with you tonight.

You’re not going?

No. Well, I am going, but… Well, it’s a long story, but basically I have to take Billy Walters.

Billy Walters?

I’m sorry. I really am, but so you don’t have to go alone. I’ve found an alternative date for you.

Oh, thanks, but no thanks. If I can’t go with you, then I’m just not gonna go at all.

Well, at least let me introduce you before you make up your mind. (to Jo, Tina and Hannah) Girls?

JTJo, Tina and Hannah

Hi, Sam.

Th-They are my date? All of them?

Yep.

This is the happiest day of my life.

So, plan A: We sing at the prom. Mr. Walters loves us. We get a record contract which leads to… (opening her fan) worldwide domination.

I’ll get it.

So, what’s Plan B?

Uh, there is no Plan B.

Hey.

Hi. I’m Billy.

Hi, Billy. I’m Rachel.

You’re my date?

Yeah.

Whoa!

Whoa, there. Easy.

Sorry. I, I, I wasn’t expecting. I’m a little nervous.

Um, Billy? Where’s your dad? Is he in the car or is he coming later?

Oh, yeah. My dad said to say he’s not coming because his books are full.

(to Rachel) Plan B, it all goes horribly wrong.

Do you not want to be my date anymore?

Of course I do. Come on. We’re gonna have a great time.

So, are you girls ready to go?

Of course we are.

I think so.

We’re ready.

Come on.

I really can’t believe that you’re taking Hannah, Tina and Jo to the prom.

Yeah. Me neither.

I know. 3 dates. Well, this is gonna be the best evening ever.

How wrong could he be?

So, why don’t you tell me about yourselves?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, guys! One at a time, okay? Why don’t we start with you, Jo?

All right. Um, but first of all, I’m a bit hot, so can you take my jacket?

Sure.

Yeah, and I’m a bit cold, so can you go and get mine?

Ugh! I don’t like that. Can you get me something else? Something orangey, but not orange juice or squash and nothing with bubbles.

Okay.

Ah. Get some other one of those, will ya? I’m parched.

Okay. I’ll be right back.

B1Bully #1

Hey. Thought you said you had a date, Mr. Geek.

B2Bully #2

Who’s your date, dork-o?

B1Bully #1

Where is she, Mr. Nerds Bill?

Right here.

B1Bully #1

You’re his date?

Yeah.

B2Bully #2

How come?

Well, I had to fight a few other girls off first, but I finally got him in to notice me.

Hey, sir. Do you wanna dance?

Sure.

No. I don’t feel like dancing. Sam, let’s go outside.

No. I’m hungry. Why don’t we go and get some food?

No! He wants to dance! Don’t you, sir?

He doesn’t! He wants to go outside! Don’t you, sir?!

He doesn’t! He wants to go and get some food! Don’t you, Sam?!

Well, I…

B1Bully #1

Look at his geeky glasses.

B2Bully #2

And his stupid hair and square clothes.

I think your clothes are great and your hair is really sexy.

Really?

Yeah.

W-Wo-Would you like to dance with me?

Sure.

B1Bully #1

(laughs) Look at the nerd dance!

B2Bully #2

Hey, Billy, you’re such a jerk!

What are you talking about? He’s a wicker dancer!

Yeah, I mean we all dance around, don’t we?

Yeah. It’s the latest thing.

I want chips. English chips. Not American chips.

And get me a sandwich, will you? Not from here. From the deli across the road.

And take my jacket and get me another drink!

All right. Okay.

And hurry up about it. We’re on stage in a minute.

Time when you are, isn’t it?

Yeah, he’s quite hot.

Yeah.

(sighs) What a nightmare.

Okay, everyone. I hope you enjoyed your prom. Fellas, grab your ladies because we’re gonna sing a song few called “Two In a Million.”

IJIntro: Jo

Oh-oh, ooh

Ah

V1Verse 1: Jo

Out of all the boys, you’re not like the others

From the very first day, I knew we’d be lovers

In my wildest dreams, my darkest desire

Would I declare to you, your love takes me higher

BJBridge: Jo

Just when we both thought our lives were set in stone

They shone in light and brought us together

CAChorus: All, Jo

We are two in a million

We’ve got all for luck we could be given

If the world should stop (The world, should stop)

We’ll still have each other

And no matter what (No matter what)

We’ll be forever as one

V2Verse 2: Jo

It’s a crazy world where everything’s changing

One minute you’re up, and the next thing you’re breaking

When I lose my way, and the skies, they get heavy (Mm)

It’ll be okay the moment you’re with me

BJBridge: Jo

No one would have guessed we’d be standing strong today

Solid as a rock and perfect in every way

CAChorus: All, Jo

We are two in a million

We’ve got all for luck (The luck) we could be given

If the world should stop

We’ll still have each other (Oh)

And no matter what (No matter what)

We’ll be forever as one

No matter what (No matter, no matter what)

We’ll be forever as one

No matter what (No matter what)

We’ll be forever as one

(gasps) Mr. Walters! You’re here!

I thought you said your books are full.

No. Who told you that? Hey. It’s L.A. It’s all just an illusion. Full, empty, hot, cold success failure. It’s all just the same thing. What is it different?

(laughs) Fair play. I see what you mean. Or do what?

Hey. You’re learning.

So what did you think?

Yeah, will you sign us up?

I sure will! You guys are great! Huh?

Hey, Rachel! That was great.

Thanks.

Oh, listen. Um, there’s no easy way for me to say this, but, I think it’s time to move on.

I’m sorry?

I had a great time and everything but I don’t think we should date anymore.

What? You’re checking me?

Yeah. Sorry. I hope we can still be friends.

Yeah, of course we can.

Okay.

Hey.

Hi.

How’s your evening?

Okay. How about yours?

Not great. Do you wanna dance?

Yeah.

Well.

Well what? Where’s your mystery woman?

Oh, her! Oh, well, you know, she was great and, and it was great.

And?

And well, you know how it is. You know, we had a great evening and then, then she asked my phone number and she said she wanted to see me again and, well, you know what happens when you commit to another day then you end up like married with 18 kids in a mortgage.

She chucked you, didn’t she?

Yeah. She’s with Billy.

It was love at first sight.

Oh, I’m sorry.

That’s okay.

You know, the best way to deal the situation like that is to behave with dignity and grace.

Maturity. Good humour.

Yeah, you know what they say. Live and let live.

Look. There’s Rachel.

She’s with our date!

I’m gonna kill her. (pushing Jon and Bradley out of the way) Oi! Rachel!
