"Narrator:" "Lasttime onMakeIt Pop." "I got demoted from the play." "Have you seen Jodi?" "How come?" "No reason." "People aren't talking about me, they're talking about you." "I've been out webbed." "Here's your study advisor now." "You?" "You!" "You're all going to take a back seat to Corki." "We don't need them, we have each other." "Don't worry." "It's going to be okay." "Jealousy is the kind of reaction you have to get used to when you're a leading actor." "I don't think this is a very good idea Jared." "It's a great idea." "My play is a completely original interpretation." ""Original interpretation" is an oxymoron." "Exactly..." "Okay..." "My friend could be good to cast, you know," "Sun Hi" "A-ttttaaaa." "Shhhhh." "I'm having an aha moment." "Jodi:" "Jaredre-cast thewholeplay?" "Yeah, and I'm still not in it!" "He's lost his mind, Sun Hi Nation." "I know you're solid with me on this one." "I think he's just expressing his creativity." "I play a shoe cobbler?" "I'm a talking hot air balloon..." "There's a definite limit to how creative a person should be." "He changed Toto to a dancing Great Dane." "Can a Great Dane dance?" "This could be good." "If Jared's redoing the play, then maybe I can convince him to let me do the costume design." "Really?" "The play's in just over a week." "He's gonna need help." "You could get your music in there, too." "Caleb, you're staring." "Was I staring?" "No, I wasn't." "There's something is going on here and the Nation, and I don't like it." "Mostly because I'm not involved." "Tell me what it is!" "Nothing!" "There's electricity between you." "And I thought it was because someone was wearing wool." "I'm allergic to wool!" "What electricity?" "We totally said that at the same time." "Yeah." "What are the chances?" "Are they a couple?" "Crazy talk." "No..." "SunHi:" "Mr.Stark?" "Areyouin there?" "Mr. Stark?" "Are you okay?" "Never better." "I have a thousand online friends." "That's like an electronic standing ovation." "I'm a web star!" "How's that possible?" "The vlog I did about him." "People loved it." "They also love a cat playing a piano." "That was great." "I want to do a song with that cat." "Anyway, my vlog went viral and now he has friends in eighty seven countries." "Eighty-eight." "Hello Fiji!" "Ha-ha!" "Maybe I can go viral too." "I need that piano playing cat." "Sun Hi, Jared's going to alienate everyone!" "We need Mr. Stark to take back the play!" "You have to fix this!" "♪Makeit pop,woo ,woo ♪" "♪Makeit pop,woo ♪" "♪Woo,Ican 'twait, noI can'twaitno♪" "♪I can'twait, noI can'twait♪" "♪Somakeitpop, we'rebout to,we'rebouttoblow ♪" "♪Waittillwedrop , Ohya,we 'rereadytogo♪" "♪Ain'tgonnastop,when  isittimefor the show♪" "♪Wemakeit, you make it,theymakeit♪" "♪M-m-m-m-m-m- Makeitpop♪" "Ms.Hurley:" "Tomorrow willbeaquizon acts one and two of Shakespeare's Macbeth." "Andjustlikein theplaywhere unexpected things happen at every turn, the quiz will be equally unpredictable." "Blah blah blah you all get my drift." "That'sthatkindof positivereenforcement that makes me love my job." "I think I'm going to be sick tomorrow." "How do you know?" "Because she hasn't read acts one and two of Macbeth." "Don't worry." "I'm reviewing them right now." "We can have an all-night study session." "It'll be so much fun!" "I'd rather be sick." "Jared:" "Corki!" "Corki!" "You..." "You..." "You... ♪ Youuuuu!" "♪" "Sun Hi:" "Hey!" "Why wasn't I cast as Dorothy?" "Because I have a vision and you're not in it." "What?" "Sun Hi is the vision." "I'm out." "Come on Jodi." "You want me to be Dorothy?" "Oh no, that's old school." "My Oz, will be a brilliant exposé of human creativity." "And I owe it all to you!" "Me?" "Yes!" "You're my inspiration, my muse -- you were right, by the way, that is exactly how you say it." "Have you run all of this by Mr. Stark?" "He doesn't get me, Corki." "My Oz is subversive." "The Munchkins are an allegory for the little guys' fight against big business." "And who's there to save them?" "The Cowardly Lion!" "But now she's a bald eagle soaring majestically over Oz!" "Breathe, Jared." "This doesn't make any sense." "Wait -- this play has to have a troll prince in it." "Oh you've done it again, muse!" "♪" "Jodi!" "I'm sorry!" "Not for kissing you the other day, no I liked that." "But for running into you!" "Shhhh." "What?" "Oh, sorry..." "Sorry." "About the other day..." "We should probably talk about what happened." "Okay..." "No band practice tonight." "Corki can't make it." "Okay, good." "That means I can work on my beats for Jared." "And I can work on my new sketches for the costumes." "We can present music and wardrobe together!" "There's no way he could say no to this team!" "You guys look weird." "Like a dentist commercial." "What's going on?" "Corki can't make it to band practice." "She's stuck at play rehearsal." "So we're going to work on costumes, music and stuff." "See you later!" "But we can still rehearse..." "At least I still have you, celly." "What?" "!" "Dead battery?" "!" "I can't count on anyone in this world." "Dear Starkhead394, yes all six of my Broadway plays opened and closed on the same night." "But that just allowed me to keep the work fresh!" "Making new friends, Mr. Stark?" "Yes the online community has wrapped me in a warm, pixelated embrace." "Who's this?" "Hans." "I've cast him in the musical." "Oh um." "Bold choice." "Like the time I cast a panda as Juliet, chased by Romeo's family of bamboo farmers." "I have to tell my new friend about that one." "So you're okay with this?" "A big play needs a big dog!" "I'd also like to talk to a pyrotechnician to discuss special effects." "Can you believe it?" "My new friend actually saw RJ Bamboo!" "So you were the one!" "?" "Of course it will cost a little extra but" "I think it would be well worth it, don't you?" "Yes, Jared." "Yes." "And a semi-colon bracket to you too my new friend." "Hey that's a winky face!" "How have I never seen you before?" "Caleb:" "Wow!" "You like it?" "I was worried I wouldn't remember all of my ideas after I lost my first set of sketches." "Like it?" "I love it." "My dad says everybody is an artist, but sometimes life makes you forget." "My dad always told me to take out the trash." "Hey I was wondering if I could ask you something?" "You just did." "What?" "No, no, um." "Can I ask you something else other than asking you if I could ask you..." "I'm confused." "I'm just kidding." "Ask me anything." "Our kiss." "I was just wondering if maybe I," "I squished your face, or had bad breath, or drooled..." "What I'm trying to say is, was it okay?" "Our kiss was... ♪" "♪ They say you'll know when it's true ♪" "♪ But what I'm feeling, it's just all so brand new ♪" "♪ They say you'll know when it's right ♪" "♪ But I've never been here before, I've never tried ♪" "♪ I wanna know, wanna know ♪" "♪ What this love is about ♪" "♪ I don't know what I'm feeling gotta figure it out ♪" "♪ I wanna know, gotta know, what all of this could lead to ♪" "♪ Am I really falling for you ♪" "♪ Ohh, oh, ohh ...Falling for you ♪" "♪ Ooh, oh, ohh ... ♪" "♪ You say you wanna ♪ be friends."

"Really?" "That's better than okay!" "I'm so gonna write this in in my journal." "Did I say journal, I don't have a journal?" "Oh, whow, wait" "It's okay." "Thank you all for joining me on this journey of self-discovery." "Um, who's playing Dorothy?" "She has no lines." "Dorothy will be played as a shadow puppet." "Let her say nothing." "It'll speak volumes." "The Cowardly Lion has all the lines?" "I'm changing the rest of the cast to a chorus." "You provide the soundscape." "Here's a soundscape for you Jared," "The sound of two feet walking." "I'm outta here." "Whatever." "Um..." "Jared?" "That's the whole cast." "And now we finally have the show we're looking for:" "Just Corki, the star, center stage." "♪" "Jared dropped the entire cast except Corki!" "He has to go." "I know." "Wait." "You agree with me?" "Don't move." "This may be a sign of the apocalypse." "How did this happen?" "Not sure." "We're never going to agree on anything again, are we?" "Not a chance." "Got it." "Good talk." "Okay, let's rehearse pages twelve through one-hundred-and-nine." "Jared." "I'm exhausted." "I can't do it." "Of course you can." "You're talented and strong." "And I would never ask you to do anything unreasonable." "Now, let's try it again, this time dancing through every scene, punctuating the dramatic moments with pirouettes and somersaults." "What does that have to do with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz?" "I'm making a masterpiece here." "A story about Oz, that has absolutely nothing to do with Oz." "Sometimes my thoughts are so powerful, they give me headaches." "I'm done." "I'm sorry, for a second there I thought you said, "I'm done"." "I did." "This play is making everything else in my life fall behind." "I can't support this at the cost of my grades, friends, and band." "I'm sorry, Jared..." "I knew it." "You're a great actress." "For a second there I actually thought you were quitting." "Corki?" "Corki?" "Nope, she's really leaving." "Interesting." "Sun Hi:" "You cannot let this happen." "Ms. Song." "Hello." "Jared's taken over the play." "It has only one actor." "CORKI!" "Not me." "Jodi and Caleb are trying to pitch him their ideas and not one includes me." "There is a lot going on around here that is not about me," "Mr. Stark, and you have to fix that." "Thank you." "That's weird." "You usually don't thank me after one of my classic rants." "I'm web-famous now." "Which is better than regular famous because it sounds cooler." "But I need more." "I got a monkey on my back." "A newborn chimp at the zoo, and he's getting more hits than me!" "More?" "It's not enough." "I need more friends... more hits... more impersonal love!" "Mr. Stark, the web doesn't usually love." "It's a fluid relationship at best." "Maybe if I use my catchphrase some more?" ""Leave me alone!"" "Record me saying that!" "At least take a selfie with me." "Do duckface." "People still do duckface right?" "It's great." "Beyond." "He has to love it, right?" "Well, it's Jared." "True." "What he mostly loves is himself." "So, why did you ask me to the dance?" "What do you mean?" "Anyone would be lucky to go with you." "Why me?" "Because I felt like you got me." "I do, I totally get you." "We're so compatible." "I feel like we could finish each other's sentences." "Yeah, I think we make a pretty good" "Chocolate cake." "I was going to say team." "But you were thinking chocolate cake." "Ms.Diona:" "Theentrance willbehere." "The "Ms. Diona Aquatic Center."" "Has a nice ring to it, don't you think?" "Next year this auditorium will be transformed into a state-of-the-art swimming center." "No more need for the performing arts." "No performing arts?" "After the play tanks, the school board will see that the arts are a waste of time." "And the pool plans will move along swimmingly." "Haha." "Swimmingly." "Who says principals don't have fun." "SunHi:" "Mr.Stark...." "Mr.Stark..." "Not now, Sun Hi." "A lottery official with very bad spelling is about to wire me a hundred thousand dollars." "All I have to do is send him my credit card numb" "Stop!" "What have you done?" "You're a web zombie." "You've got to snap out of it." "We need to get you on your feet." "But I was about to become rich." "Not to mention how upset my followers are going to be when I don't give my tri hourly report on the current state of my indigestion." "What did you tell your mother you wanted to be when you were younger?" "A giant of the theater or a desperate web celeb?" "I think I said geothermal engineer..." "No you didn't!" "The play's a disaster and everything you gave your life to create will be destroyed and turned into a glorified wading pool." "You're right." "My veins are filled with blood." "Not pixels and dot coms." "A pox on you, Internet!" "We have to save the arts program!" "Plus the play, your job, and my hair." "What's does your hair have to do with it?" "Do you have any idea what chlorine does to my color?" "ll have you, Hans." "So I heard you broke Oz?" "Genius is rarely understood in its time." "If we don't put on a great show," "Ms. Diona will close down the theater department." "And super-talented, on-their- way-to- fame, cool kids like me, who aren't cast in the play yet but totally should be, won't have a stage to shine on." "This can't happen!" "But we are here to save the day." "Check out Jodi's designs!" "You're gonna love them." "And the music Caleb did!" "All hits, all day, all Oz." "Oh sure, now you show up." "And watch... ♪" "♪ I ain't serving up dinner, I'm serving up skillz ♪" "♪ I was always a winner, I'm serving up skillz ♪" "♪ You're just a beginner, cause I'm serving up skillz ♪" "♪ I'm serving up skillz, I'm serving up la la la la la ♪" "♪ Where ya at tell me, where ya at ♪" "♪ Holla Back baby, holla back ♪" "♪ Let me show you what I'm workin' with ♪" "♪ When I take a shot of infamous ♪" "♪ Where ya at tell me, where ya at ♪" "♪ Holla Back baby, holla back ♪" "♪ Let me show you what I'm workin' with, with, with, with ♪" "♪ Skillz ♪" "♪" "♪ Look at what I'm working with..."

"I'm not to sure about all of this" "Let it go Jared." "I'm taking back the play." "I'm sensing a dramatic shift." "This is so exciting." "It's just like Macbeth!" "Wait!" "Don't say that." "Say what?" "Macbeth?" "No!" "Sun Hi, this is nothing like Macbeth." "Stop!" "You're right." "I never read Macbeth." "I was definitely gonna fail that quiz." "Arghhh!" "What's wrong?" "The Shakespearean curse." "If you mention that play in a theater, your show is doomed to failure." "Oops." "Fools." "There's no such thing as curses." "On the other hand, I'll take all the help I can get."
