"lie" "Uh, no, no. that's okay." "Come on, it's so easy." "Just follow the bouncing ball." "I'll just leave the singing to Skander." "Do you really think he's coming?" "He didn't say no." "Oh wait, maybe this is him." "Hello?" "Oh hey, Skander." "Oh my gosh, oh my god!" "So just play it cool, okay?" "Oh my gosh... he's totally in there!" "Can you see him?" "There he is!" "Let me see." "Are they still looking?" "Yup." "Don't let them see you!" "I think it's working." "Then I want you to stick your arm out" "And wave at the window." "Got it?" "This is so ridiculous." "Just shut up and hug me!" "Now wave." "She's so lucky!" "Sorry, Skander's too tired from rehearsal to come in." "Convenient." "I'm sorry?" "Why would Skander hill take a cab When he has a driver?" "He likes to travel... incognito." "If you know Skander hill, I dare you to bring something to school" "That belongs to him." "Well, this..." "Is his water bottle." "His lips have touched it." "I swear." "That could belong to anyone." "Don't be such a Debbie downer." "No, I can't sing." "Of course you can." "No, really, I can't." "Gotta be strong I spy with my little eye." "A lie, a lie, a lie." "I try to be the good guy Yeah, I try, I try, I try." "But it's Saturday." "We always go to the park on Saturday." "I'm sorry, I have to bail." "Why?" "I have a reconnaissance mission." "Marion Hawthorne still refuses to believe I know Skander." "You don't." "I know, but I have a fake reputation to uphold." "And I hate it, but giving up my personal life" "Is just one of the sacrifices I have to make." "Oh, sacrifice, huh?" "A party with the "cool crowd" is a sacrifice?" "Oh, it was beyond torture." "I'll see you guys later." "?" "Mysterious appointments, Late night excursions, And coop..." "All the talking with coop about his proposal." "?" "Housekeeping!" "On the pillow this time!"

"Wait." "You have his autograph?" "!" "How do you know it's his autograph?" "Hello?" "It matches the one on my poster." "Then it's easy to forge." "Oh, come on!" "It's a fake, Harriet, Just like you." "Don't listen to her, Harriet." "We believe you." "We absolutely live for your blog." "The only thing worse than being Marion Hawthorne," "Is wanting to be Marion Hawthorne." "Ungh!" "Headquarters, this is Jake Jones..." "Cut!" "Cut!" "What is happening?" "Ah ha!" "Hi." "Five, six, seven, eight." "Six, seven, eight." "Five..." "Oh no!" "Of course you are, you're hot." "Happy and proud that you're finally getting into this part" "And taking it seriously." "I knew you'd come around." "That is the magic of method acting." "Yeah. wow me." "What do you mean you're his assistant?" "I don't have time to talk to assistants!" "You get him on the line, you get him on the line now." "Assistants..." "Okay..." "Okay, what do I do?" "I mean, the guy has no life." "All he does is work." "If I wasn't having so much fun, I'd actually feel sorry for him." "And the entry hits are off the chart." "Everyone's reading mine." "What's wrong?" "Sport and I have discussed this." "Discussed what?" "You." "We're starting to question your loyalties." "You've changed." "Excuse me?" "You fraternize with the enemy" "It's gross." "All you do is hang out with Marion and her clones" "And slobber on and on about Skander." "It's like you're obsessed with him!" "You're just as bad as all the other skandroids." "Our friendship's completely and totally compromised!" "You're just jealous because my blog's popular." "I'm popular!" "Okay, do it." "Go!" "Writing for the blog And bringing down an undeserving teen idol." "What are you doing?" "Pointless experiments?" "!" "And how 'bout you?" "Reading about a sport you stink at?" "!" "You're both such fakes and finks!" "Get out!" "Gladly!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh no!" "Ohhh no!" "I don't care what you think!" "Okay." "And yesterday someone tried to blow me up!" "What?" "!" "Yeah!" "So someone needs to start caring about this... fast!" "And someone needs to start caring about me!" "Oh, Skander, of course we care." "The entire crew cares." "Everybody cares, baby." "And you know, we also care about getting this film done." "So what do you say?" "Tough spy time?" "Okay, Skander, this is your big song." "All right?" "I want you to bring it home." "'cause she feels she can't trust you," "But you can't tell her the truth About your secret agent status." "So you're frustrated, really frustrated." "You with me?" "Yeah." "More than you know." "Amazing!" "I really want to feel that frustration, okay?" "You're angry, you're tense..." "The frustration should just be oozing out of every pore." "And..." "Action!" "Sorry, Skander!" "What?" "!" "You were awesome out there, kiddo!" "Awesome!" "Looking good, Skander." "I'm serious about this." "Oh, and it shows, my friend." "You have really been delivering." "You have to do something." "Put the police on it if you have to!" "Okay, let's just take a step back here." "Let's..." "let's breathe deeply." "You're not listening to me!" "Will somebody listen to me?" "!" "Geez, Skander, this whole prima donna act" "Is getting kinda old, don't you think?" "And speaking of thinking," "You might wanna think about laying off the carbs." "Ugh!" "Well, poppy," "Maybe you should think about laying off the bad acting." "I didn't mean to." "No, it was me." "It was him." "What were you thinking?" "Okay, that's the way you wanna play?" "Then let's play." "Ohhh!" "Agh!" "Enough!" "Enough!" "So that's all he did, start a food fight?" "No, no, no. the guy is unhinged." "I mean now he's going on about" "Anyway, sol says he's method acting," "But no-no-no-no-no-no, let me tell you," "This guy has completely lost it." "And now..." "Now he says he's not gonna go out anymore." "No, no. no public appearances." "He's only gonna go to the closed set." "Oh man." "Thank goodness we don't have anymore locations to shoot." "So he's not going anywhere?" "He's only shooting in the studio?" "How am I supposed to..." "To what, sweetie?" "Where's golly going?" "She must have plans." "She can't be your nanny 24/7, Harriet." "You've barely touched your dinner!" "I remember when I had my first crush, I couldn't eat either." "I'm afraid our darling daughter Has it bad for skylar hole." "Skander hill?" "Exactly." "I've spent so much time following strangers," "Writing about their lives." "What if all this time I've been watching the wrong people?" "Oh, hey, coop!" "How ya doing?" "Maybe I should've been learning more about the people" "I think I know the most." "Hey!" "How are ya?" "Good?" "Yeah?" "Okay." "Harriet?" "Harriet!" "Harriet, stop!" "What were you doing there?" "It's none of your business." "I can't even imagine why you were spying on me" "In the first place!" "Me of all people!" "Are the ones with all the secrets." "Don't be so melodramatic." "So what were you doing there?" "Are you gonna be coop's new nanny?" "Then answer the question." "What were you doing with coop?" "I've seen you two together everywhere." "What?" "I've seen you hugging at book scoop," "Talking on the telephone, and now you're at his house?" "What's going on?" "!" "Is coop your boyfriend?" "No, Harriet." "Now this is going too far." "Well, then what?" "!" "We tell each other everything!" "I didn't want to tell you this way." "You've clearly given me no choice." "Harriet, I..." "I'm leaving." "What?" "I'm leaving." "How can you even think about leaving?" "And for coop?" "!" "I..." "I'm buying book scoop." "You're what?" "!" "You can't do this!" "You can't leave!" "I won't let you!" "Harriet, don't." "Golly's leaving." "Vi..." "I didn't want you to find out this way." "I can explain." "Just like that, you're up and leaving?" "How inconsiderate." "How...?" "Roger!" "But you are leaving?" "Golly is." "Roger, I can explain." "Without a word of warning." "With no thought to us at all." "I can't believe it!" "How do you expect us to manage?" "Vi... vi, breathe, breathe!" "Vi..." "Harriet!" "All right, you say you know Skander hill personally" "And you're not just making everything up" "From your silly little head." "For you to prove it once and for all, right?" "Sound fair?" "And how do you suppose I do that, Marion," "To your satisfaction, huh?" "You'll figure it out." "Your blogs have been nothing but one big lie." "I'm worried about her." "She's taking the whole golly thing really hard." "I know, I know, And I wish I could think about that right now." "Well, somebody has to." "Well, then..." "You worry about it for both of us." "We've got the biggest production number" "Of the entire movie tomorrow." "A huge singing and dancing extravaganza." "I've got to cope with an unravelling male lead" "And a hundred crazy teenage extras." "What am I gonna do?" "What're you doing here?" "You should be in holding." "I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't be here," "But jail, it seems a little..." "No, the extras holding area..." "Where all the dancers are?" "Come on." "All right, positions!" "Let's try and make this work, people!" "A little more concentration would be nice." "Let's get a little focus here, people!" "Cue playback!" "And..." "Action!" "Let's hit the road." "Now don't you know we're gonna move ahead." "Let's hit the road it's time to go." "Are you hearing just what I said?" "Let's hit the road now don't you know." "We gonna, gonna move ahead."

"Our trip was fun." "We learned a lot about each other and ourselves." "And now we know that friendship rules." "That's a lesson we wanna take." "We're saying goodbye." "But it's hello to the future." "Oh who knows what's waiting around the next bend." "We're saying goodbye." "But it's hello to the future." "The future is ours and it's all about." "It's all about friends." "Cut!" "Everybody now?" "What's going on here?" "Would someone please answer that question?" "You..." "I know you!" "Skander, hi." "I've actually been wanting to introduce myself." "My father's- you're that creepy kid that's bee?" "Who are you, huh?" "And what do you want?" "I am so sick and tired of crazy fans Thinking they know me," "That they're in love with me, That they can't live without me!" "I hate it!" "I hate them, And you!" "You think you can know everything about someone" "Just by following them around!" "You don't know me!" "You don't know anything!" "What're you doing?" "Get this off of me!" "Will someone get her?" "!" "Get her!" "Security!" "We pay you for a reason, don't we?" "What is this?" "Harriet m." "Welch, I have been frantic!" "Where have you been?" "Why didn't you answer your cell phone?" "What're you wearing?" "I found this in your room." "It's Skander hill's schedule, isn't it?" "The one time she gets his name right." "Harriet, Are you obsessed with this young man?" "No!" "Well, I think you are." "Perhaps so obsessed You're even shutting out your friends." "At a "huts for the homeless" event today" "And she said you girls aren't even talking." "I thought it was a harmless little crush," "But this is taking it way too far, Harriet." "Now, as your mother I know you, and" "You don't know anything!" "Harriet!" "Hey, guys." "Look, I just want to..." "I told you she couldn't deliver." "Because it's all a big lie." "She's a big lie." "Why're you doing this to me?" "I'm not doing it to you, Harriet." "I've always dreamt of owning my own book store." "Since when?" "You never told me." "People are allowed to have secrets, Harriet." "Even best friends." "You said that you wouldn't leave" "Until we both knew it was time for you to go." "Well, I found out for myself that I didn't need you!" "Harriet, I..." "Looking at this family tree" "The branches wearing thin." "And when the drifting shows its face." "That's when the mending shall begin." "We will grieve in parted ways." "But I do need you." "And without a goodbye." "And we may send a card to show we care." "That's just another way to cry." "So hang on brother now." "Hang on sister now." "We're all okay." "No I say." "Hang on brother now." "Hang on sister now." "We're all okay." "You...." "I know you!" "I am so sick and tired of crazy fans" "Thinking they know me, that they're in love with me," "That they can't live without me!" "I hate it!" "I hate them!" "You..." "I know you..." "I don't believe this!" "The sequel"" "Leaked on the internet." "Devastated skandroids from around the world react." "Could this spell the end Of this former heartthrobs career?" "What is happening?" "Why doesn't someone answer that?" "I haven't had time to even dress!" "I will never, never forgive golly For abandoning us!" "I am so sick and tired of crazy fans" "Thinking they know me, that they're in love with me," "That they can't live without me!" "I hate it!" "No, Skander!" "Marion!" "I know you..." "No, no, no!" "Yes?" "Oh!" "Where's roger?" "!" "Come on." "Smile." "Marion, how could you do it?" "It was meant for the blog, not the entire world!" "Well, that's why you posted it in the first place, right?" "To make all us Skander fans feel like idiots For liking him." "I was just giving you a little added boost." "You should be thanking me." "But it wasn't his fault!" "I..." "You what?" "I..." "I'm bored with this conversation." "You're responsible, Welch!" "Do you hear me?" "!" "Sol, calm down." "Calm down, calm down." "You promised my client top-notch security" "And yet somehow this girl gets onto a closed set." "As an extra, no less!" "You're the producer." "How could this leak out, huh?" "I..." "I didn't even mean what I said." "I love you, babe," "Okay?" "Okay, there's gotta be a solution to this." "So why don't we go to my office, We'll look at the rushes." "If it was one of the extras, we'll find her." "Okay?" "Okay." "Okay, so this extra, she followed you?" "She tried to blow you up?" "What?" "What?" "What?" "I already told you, She was in my hotel room," "She was at the park, the restaurant..." "She's everywhere I go." "I can't believe you didn't take Skander seriously" "On this one, roger." "Not to worry, sol, I am gonna get to the bottom of this." "I promise you, We're gonna find out who this kid is." "You'd better." "Don't think he doesn't have other offers." "Anything?" "Now don't you know We're gonna..." "gonna move ahead." "Let's hit the road..." "Where did you get that picture?" "Oh, uh..." "How do you know her?" "Roger..." "Skander, look..."

"We need to talk." "Why?" "!" "Is your mother right?" "Are you obsessed with this guy?" "But nobody else seemed to see it, So I tried to show them." "Harriet!" "I mean even the most overpaid," "Egotistical little fink in the world" "Still deserves his own privacy." "What got into you?" "I never meant it to go this far." "Marion's the one who posted it all over the internet." "I just did it for the blog." "Just the blog." "What blog?" "At least I was." "You are?" "Well, you never told me that." "Well, you never asked." "You!" "We need to talk!" "I think I left something running in the kitchen." "Vi." "What was I paying you for?" "While my daughter was hanging around hotel rooms" "With scooter heel." "Skander hill?" "Exactly!" "Following him all over the city." "You were hired to take care of Harriet And this is what happens?" "Do you call that doing your job?" "All of this happened on your watch, golly!" "It happened on your watch too, Mrs. Welch." "These are good, Harriet." "These are better than half the scripts I read." "Really?" "Thanks." "Yeah, but... this thing with Skander..." "I mean this thing has, ugh..." "It has caused a lot of problems." "I know." "And I want to fix it, honestly." "If there's anything I can do to just..." "I just... at this point, I..." "I just don't think there is." "Then it's all my fault." "I'm sorry, dad." "I really am." "No, no, it's okay, it's okay." "It's gonna be..." "It's gonna be fine." "I just gotta make some phone calls." "Excuse me." "I used to like to write." ""Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart."" "William Wordsworth." "What's wrong?" "Golly." "She used to do that, you know, with the quotes." "Oh, honey, I know you miss her." "I'm so sorry." "But I want you to know..." "I'm no golly." "But I am your mom" "And I love you." "And we are gonna get through this together, Okay?" "Okay." "I'm, uh, surprised to see you here." "It's Tuesday." "Look, Harriet, I know you're angry with me for leaving," "But I couldn't pass up this opportunity." "And despite what you might think," "You really don't need me anymore." "You're all grown up." "Obviously not." "Well, you're getting there," "And I think we both know what you need to do." "Okay, so, I have to ask." "Why would you, Harriet m." "Welch, Seeker of truth in all things," "Go to such lengths to keep the myth" "Of this so-called Skander friendship alive?" "I mean, did you really infiltrate the set" "And dance in one of those big production numbers?" "Yeah." "Oh, Harriet, you can't dance!" "I know." "I have a woman who enjoys herself very much" "Sometimes I lose, sometimes I win." "Do you know who said that?" "I don't know." "The second greatest spy in the world." "Aww, I missed you." "I missed you, too." "Hey, guys." "Why aren't you out there?" "They haven't put me in yet, OK?" "They probably won't." "Besides, what do you care?" "Ok, I get it." "I was an idiot." "I am sorry." "I guess I got sucked into the whole being popular thing." "Hmph, that's an understatement." "Look, I don't even know who I became." "But whoever she was, she wasn't a good friend." "No, she wasn't." "All right, we forgive you." "Right, sport?" "Okay, now that that's out of the way," "You have got to give us all the gory details About set that day." "I mean, how cool is it that you got Skander hill" "To completely lose his marbles?" "!" "Yeah, if cool means ruining your father's career," "Bringing a movie star to the brink of insanity," "And losing a blog you've been coveting your whole life," "Than yeah... it was pretty cool." "You really think you lost the blog?" "How could I not?" "Marion's reign of evil lives. ugh..." "And now I have to go apologize to Skander." "My dad asked me to." "And the worst part of it is, I know he's right." "You're up, sport." "You're in!" "Let me see what you got!" "Go!" "I built my soul on rock and roll." "Then someone told me the kids don't rock no more." "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "It's time to win." "I built my soul on rock and roll." "Come on, sport!" "You can do it!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Keep it up for me, keep it, keep it up for me." "Keep it up for me, keep it, keep it up for me." "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Woo!" "Go sport!" "Skander..." "I'm truly, very seriously sorry" "I never meant to make you crazy, Or to hurt your career." "I'm just begging you, from the bottom of my heart," "Please finish the film." "Okay, um..." "I'll tell you what." "I'll continue with the movie," "But only if you stop writing that blog of yours." "Stop writing?" "Yup." "I..." "Skander, 1;" "Harriet, 0." "Well?" "Okay..." "It's a deal." "No. no, no it isn't!" "Harriet..." "You're a writer." "It's what you do." "You're darn good at it." "No one should ever, ever be able to tell you otherwise." "Not anyone." "I..." "I can't allow it." "Wow, Roger, you know." "That's really admirable of you." "Such a sweet moment." "Truly and.." "I quit." "Nice, Roger." "Yeah." "Dad, I am not gonna let you lose this movie" "No, it's fine." "Harriet." "There are other movie stars." "Harriet." "They are coming out again." "Skander, Skander, over here." "See, she does know him." "She was telling the truth the whole time." "It's only because her father's the producer." "You still can't convince me that Harriet is best friends with Skander Hill" "That was the director." "They saw the video." "No!" "They loved it!" "They didn't think you had that much anger in you." "The director, he had a change of heart." "You're perfect for the role!" "Yeah!" "This next movie's gonna change your life!" "We did it!" ""We?"" "Well yeah!" "This is all because of you!" "Amazing!" "And, roger, we're back on track." "Thanks, man." "Okay." "William Shakespeare." "Skander!" "Hey, buddy!" "Skander!" "We were supposed to have our vote today On the class blog." "But in light of recent events, There's been a change of plans." "I've decided there will be no class blog this year." "Frankly, I see no other choice." "Ms. Elson, that's so unfair!" "Marion, You violated the privacy of the Westview school blog" "By posting entries publicly on the internet." "Do you honestly think I could hand this over to you?" "In good conscience?" "Ms. Elson?" "Yes." "I'd still like to vote for Harriet..." "If that's all right." "Shut it, Beth Ellen!" "No one cares!" "Well I do!" "So there!" "And I second it!" "And I definitely third it!" "Well, in the interest of democracy..." "Harriet, it looks like you've got yourself a blog." "Golly said, "If you do not tell the truth about yourself," "You can't tell it about others."" "She was Right."
