The Chronicles of OB:Episode 2

The Double Date
written by Abanoub Said and by Joe San Agustin

(Fade in to: PM Homeroom at school. Everyone is at their lockers. Except Mario, who is in a different block.)
Ed's Inner Monologue: I have a lot of stories to tell, like how I scored a blind date with one of our hot substitute teachers' daughters by winning a raffle.

(Flashback to: Ed winning the raffle.)

Ed's Inner Monologue: I meet her today after school. If she's as hot as her mom, I'm in luck. Another story is when my computer got a gay virus, literally.

(Flashback to: Ed on his computer getting a virus. It starts up with "UR GAY")

Flashback Ed: What?!? (He grabs the phone and calls someone.)
Flashback Ed: Yeah Manuel, I need to speak to Jose.

(End of flashback)

Ed's Inner Monologue: But I really want to know what some of my friends are thinking of.
Kent's Inner Monologue: I'm hungry.
Mario's Inner Monologue: My girlfriend wants me to take her on a real date so we can be together officially.
Kent's Inner Monologue: Seriously? Can it be like a double or triple date?
Mario's Inner Monologue: Yeah, as long as it's an place she would want to go.
Kent's Inner Monologue: HA!
Ed's Inner Monologue: Women do have expectations.  Hey, since this is my first date, can you guys help and join in?
Mario's Inner Monologue: No. It's your date. Yours! We' only help if she's like fugly.
Kent's Inner Monologue: Yeah, he 's right. And besides, you know I don't have a girlfriend to hep. I'd be like the fifth wheel!
Ed's Inner Monologue: All right.
Gail's Inner Monologue: My brothers are such idiots.
Bebe's Inner Monologue: Which one?
Gail's Inner Monologue: BOTH OF THEM!
Bebe's Inner Monologue: Really? I thought that Ben was more idiotic than Kent.
Gail's Inner Monologue: How?
Kent's Inner Monologue: Because I don't think about turtles all day.
Bebe's Inner Monologue: Right. (She walks away and hangs out with her other, more main friends.)As I was walking up to Didi and Petey, I thought, am I that insecure that I have to be in a relationship to keep me happy?
Bebe: Hey guys.
Didi & Petey: Hey.
Bebe: Am I so insecure that I have to be in a relationship yet I always sabotage it somehow?
Didi: Not all the time.
Petey: Break ups are always hard. You need to find someone you like enough to be in your life.
Didi: Like can leave to like-like.
Petey: And like-like can lead to love.
Bebe: Stop quoting Garfunkel and Oates.
MarioHe walks past them going to his locker on the other side of the school.) See ya guys.
Petey: What we're trying to say is that you need to find someone who cares about you and your well being and likes you back.
Kent: (He runs up to Bebe.) Hey Garfunkel and Oates. Hey Bebe, if you don't want to be late again, I suggest getting to homeroom now. (He runs off)
Bebe: I just don't know Pete. I don't know who would like me and care about my well being. I gotta get to homeroom.  (She walks away.)
Petey: Was she just oblivious to what just happened?
Didi: I think so.
(The intro plays.)
(Fade in to: After School. Ed, Kent, and Mario are in the cafeteria, on a table, looking for Ed's blind date.)

Kent: What does she look like?
Mario: Dude, it's a blind date
Ed: Yeah, I don't even think she knows what she looks like.

(Kent and Mario give Ed a puzzled look.)

Ed: Blind date. The date is blind!
Kent: A blind date is when two people go on a date but don't know what they look like or what they are like.
Ed: Oh.
Mario: Well, what did her mom say about her so we can find her?
Ed: She said that her daughter was going to carry a red balloon.
Kent: That helps.

(A red balloon lands in front of them. They see a hand grab the red balloon. They look up and see a girl's body. They see the face and a mask is covering it.)

Balloon girl: Shoot. My balloon is deflated. Now my blind date will never know where I am.
Kent: Excuse me but did you just say blind date?
BG: Yeah, my mom put me on a raffle here so someone can get a date. I'm supposed to meet a guy named Ed.
Kent: Oh we know a guy named Ed. He's right next to me.

(The camera pans to reveal that Ed isn't there. They find him under a table and pull him out.)

Kent: That's a great hiding spot Ed.
Mario: Yeah no one will find you there.
Ed: It took you 40 seconds to realize I was gone and that just proves it works!
BG: OMG! You're my blind date
Ed: Apparently.
BG: We are going to have so much fun on our date! I'm Cindy.
Ed: I'm Ed.
Cindy: I know.

(Kent whispers to Mario.)

Kent: I think she knows.

(Out of nowhere, GG pops out.)

GG: Obviously, Mr. Obvious.
Kent: IT'S CAPTAIN OBVIOUS! CAPTAIN!
GG: Well then.
Kent: Get outta here! And that's my catchphrase!
Cindy: Okay. So where are you taking me tonight?
Ed: Tonight? It's only Tuesday. Can't we wait until Friday?
Cindy: Sure, why not? We are too young to drive anyway. So where are you taking me on Friday?
Ed: TGIF.
Cindy: Really? (She gets excited.)
Ed: No, I'm pulling your leg. We're going to Friendly's.
Cindy: Even better!
Ed: I know! Oh and, don't wear your mask. Try to be brave and show your face! Wait, why do you wear that mask?
Cindy: To hide this.

(She takes off her mask, revealing her face to the boys. She doesn't reveal it to the audience, however. The boys are surprised and Kent faints. Mario grabs Kent and makes a break for it. He tries to grab Ed but Ed is too scared to move.)

Mario: Well see you Friday, Cindy got to do stuff!
Cindy: Oh, you'll see me tomorrow! I'm in 8C!
Mario's Inner Monologue: That's one hallway away from Kent and Ed's block.
Mario: Well, bye fugsl- I mean Cindy!
Cindy: Bye Ed's friends.
Mario: I'm Mario and the person I'm dragging is Kent!
Cindy: Bye guys!

(Mario runs away. Kent wakes up and walks the rest of the way with Mario.)

Kent: Dude, that face!
Mario: I know! Also, she's in block C!
Kent: That's one block away from my block.
Mario: I know.

(They reach the area of the school where the kids wait for the after school bus. They see Bebe and Bebe sees them and walks up to them.)

Bebe's Inner Monologue: Looking at Mario and Kent's facial expressions and noticing that Ed wasn't with them, I decided to talk to them.
Bebe: Hey, so how was Ed's blind date?
Mario: She was nice and all, she had a mask on though.
Bebe: Why did she have a mask on?
Kent: To hide her-no not ugly- fugsly face!
Bebe: She can't be that ugly.
Kent: I have a mental image of it. I'll send it to you.
Bebe: Like that'll happenwhoa! OH MY, OH, NO, THAT'S DISGUSTING! How is mental image sending possible? Are you a cyborg?
Kent: What? No! If too people are really close, close like you've known them for a long time, they can send mental images to each other and have conversations in their heads with each other. That's how I was able to get into your's and Gwen's telepathic conversation, how you were able to even have a telepathic convo, and why I had a telepathic convo with Mario and Ed.
Bebe: Oh, wow. How come I'm not able to do that with Petey and Didi?
Kent: Have you tried?
Bebe: No.
Kent: Then that's why!
Bebe: Speaking of, where is Ed?
Mario: With his blind date in the cafeteria.
Bebe: You left him there?
Kent: Apparently. I didn't know, I fainted.
Mario: I think she wants us to get him.
Kent: Fine! But you owe me Bebe.
Bebe: Accepted.

(Mario and Kent run to the cafeteria to get Ed.)

Bebe's Inner Monologue: As they ran to the cafeteria, I had to keep watch of their backpacks. I got bored so I tried to communicate with Didi telepathically. Hey Didi!
Didi: What?
Bebe's Inner Monologue: Talk to me in your head! Just tell me a sentence and I'll answer back!
Didi: Okay.
Didi's Inner Monologue: So why do you want me doing this?
Bebe's Inner Monologue: Because I wanted to test out how close we are.
Didi's Inner Monologue: Oh the telepathic friendship conversation theory.
Bebe's Inner Monologue: That's what it's called? Does everyone know about this except me?
Petey's Inner Monologue: Yup.

(In the cafeteria, Mario and Kent snap Ed out of it and tell him that Cindy is gone.)

Mario: She went home. Now come on, you're gonna make us miss the bus.

(They run out of the cafeteria and catch the bus just in time.)
(On the bus, They sit next to the seat with Bebe.)

Bebe: So what's her name?
Ed: Cindy.
Bebe: So when are you taking her out?
Ed: Friday.
Bebe: I'm sorry you have to go on a date with her.
Ed: I know. The worst part is, she's in C.
Bebe: That's one block away from our block and two blocks away from Mario's block!
The Three: We know.
Ed: Oh you know what, you guys said you would triple date if she way ugly. And since she's ugly,
Kent: You know I don't have a girlfriend!
Mario: And you know my girlfriend will only let me take her to fancy places! (His cellphone rings.) Yello. Hey Nazz. You want to what? Okay. Yea. Sure. Bye.
Bebe: Who was that?
Mario: My girlfriend. She says she doesn't want to go to fancy places for dats anymore because she think she was a little too high with expectations. As long as we're together, it's a date.
Kent: So what kinds of places is she willing to go to now?
Mario: Oh you know TGIF, Five Guys, Friendly's
Ed: What was that last part?
Mario: Friendly's.
Ed: Where?
Mario: FRIENDLY'S!
Ed: So you can triple date now!
Mario: Yeah I'll call her. (He calls her.)
Kent: Once again Ed, me no have girlfriend or date or courage to ask someone out.
Ed: Right, forgot.
Bebe's Inner Monologue: Since I owe him, I'm gonna have to go on the triple date with him. Also, this would be a thanks to all the times he's helped the past week.

(Flashback to: Monday. A kid knocks Bebe's lunch tray over.)

Kid: Oops.

(Bebe starts to get mad and is about to punch him when Kent stops her just by giving her his lunch.)

Kent: You're welcome.

(Flashback to: Sunday. Bebe slips on ice but is saved by Kent when she almost cracks her head.)
(Flashback to: Saturday. At the mall, Bebe wears her Hello Kitty hat with balls hanging from the sides. Everyone starts pulling them.)

KentHe looks at her hat.) Hey Kitty Balls! (She slaps him.) Ow! I'm only trying to brighten up your day!
Bebe: Well calling me Kitty Balls while people all pulling on my hat isn't helping!
Kent: Hey, stop pulling on her hat! Would you like it if I pulled your balls painfully? Wait, that's right, you guys don't even have any!

(They start attacking him.)

Kent: Bebe, get outta here while you have the chance!

(End of flashbacks.)

Bebe's Inner Monologue: Him defending me after I yelled at him really made my day.
Bebe: I'll go with you Kent. I owe you anyway. We'll go as friends.
Kent: Yeah, friends.
Mario: Okay bye. She said yes.
Ed: Yay! Now I won't be able to see that face alone anymore!
Bebe: What do you mean by, "see the face"?
Kent: Before we knew what was under the mask, he told her to not wear her mask and that she should show her face to the public.
Mario: He was so stunned by the sight of her face, he forgot to tell her to ignore his earlier statement.
Bebe: Wow, Ed. You fail.

(Skip to: Friday.)

Kent: So yeah, we went to his classroom and took all the desks and put them out in the snow.
Ed: Was it cold?
Kent: Hells yeah.
Mario: Wouldn't it be funny if your class stayed outside and learned in the snow?
Kent: We did that. It was freezing cold so we went back inside after 5 minutes.
Mario: Well, I gotta go, see you guys tonight.
Kent & Ed: See ya.
Gail: What does he mean by tonight?
Kent: I have no idea.
Ed: You forgot already?

(Bebe walks up.)

Bebe: Don't you think that was the best prank you've ever done?
Kent: No, my best prank was the Bloody Mary Prank.
Gail: Don't even flashback it got old already.
Ed: True.
Gail: Kent doesn't remember what's going on tonight and I want to know what is going on.
Bebe: You're an idiot Kent.
Kent: Sometimes.
Ed: I have a blind date from winning a raffle and she is ugly as hell, so Kent and Mario are triple dating.
Kent: Oh yeah, I remember now. Wait, triple ot double dating is second nature to you but blind dating isn't?
Ed:  Pretty much.
Gail: Kent, you don't have a girlfriend. You can't go on the date.
Ed: He has a date.
Gail: What kind of sad excuse for a girl would go out with you.
Bebe: Me.
Gail: Sorry. So I hear your blind date is ugly.
Kent: No she's not.
Gail: But Ed just said--
Kent: Let me finish. She fugsly.
Gail: She can't be that bad.
Bebe: I'll send you a mental image.
Gail: Oh gross!
Kent: Yeah, I just taught her the telepathic friendship conversation theory on Tuesday.
Gail: You did?
Bebe: Am I the only one who didn't know about this?
Kent: Apparently.
Gail: So where are you going?
Ed: Friendly's.
Gail: Save me some ice cream!
Kent: If you want it get it yourself.
Gail: Nevermind.

(Fade to: Kent's house. Caption: Later That Night...)

Ed: I'm nervous.
Kent: You're going to be fine. Why are you even in a tux? It's not the eigth grade dance.
Ed: That's easy for you to say, you're going with Bebe as friends. Where's Mario?
Kent: He said he'll meet us there.

(Cut to: Mario's House.)

Nazz: Remember, we're going semi-casual semi-formal.
Mario: That's why I'm wearing casual clothes and a tie.
Nazz: No. You have to be a little more formal.
Mario: I'll comb my hair then.
Nazz: Good.

(1 minute later.)

Nazz: Let's go.
Mario: To Kent's house!

(Cool Transition to: Forest.)

Nazz: We're never doing that ever again.
Mario: Agreed. Where are we?
Nazz: I think we're in a forest.
Mario: Let's try to find a way out and not get lost.
Nazz: Agreed.

(Another Cool Transition to: Kent's House.)

Kent: Unlike Mario, I've had practice.
Ed: Practice with what?
Kent: This. Wait what time is it?
Ed: 6:50, the girls should be there by 7:00.
Kent: Do you want to know what I've had practice with?
Ed: Yep.
Kent: To Friendly's at 7:00!

(Yet another cool transition to: Friendly's, 7:00 PM.)

Ed: How'd you do that?
Kent: Practice.

(Their dates walk up.)

Bebe: Kent, why are you casual? And Ed why are you formal? Didn't you read Nazz's memo on Facebook?
Kent: I don't have a Facebook!
Ed: I'm not her friend.
Cindy: Whatever, let's just go in, I'm hungry.
Bebe's Inner Monologue: I thought you said she wouldn't wear her mask!
Ed's Inner Monologue: Just be happy that she's wearing it.
Kent: Let's go inside.

(Fade to: Forest. Mario and Nazz are lost in the forest.)

Nazz: What if Jason Voorhees comes out of nowhere?
Mario: Don't be scared, Nazz. It's not Friday the 13th. It's Friday the 28th.
Nazz: Well it's worse here because it's still Winter.
Mario: I know.

(Skull Kid Laughs.)

Mario: Did you hear that?
Nazz: Yeah, it sounded like a piece of Zelda music.
Mario: I'm gonna call Ed. (He tries to call but his cellphone is missing.) Where's my phone?
Nazz: Did you have it in your pocket?
Mario: Yeah.
Nazz: Weird.

(Cut to: A table at Friendly's.)

Kent: Hey Cindy.
Cindy: Yeah?
Kent: Didn't Ed tell you to not wear your mask?
Cindy: Right, I forgot!
Ed's Inner Monologue: Why would you do that?
Kent's Inner Monologue: Because I want to.

(Cindy takes off her mask revealing her face to the cast but not the viewers. Everyone at Friendly's gasps.)

Bebe: Kent, I can't stop looking.
Kent: Try to look away.
Cindy: That was weird. Anyways, how long have you been dating?
Kent: We're not dating.
Bebe: We're just friends.
Cindy: Then why are you here on a triple date if you're not dating?

(Kent and Bebe look at each other. They both know that they have to do this for Ed. They look back at Cindy.)

Kent: We lied, we're happily dating.
Bebe: Yeah, we just started on Wednesday.
Kent's Inner Monologue: You owe us.

(Cut to: Forest. Skull Kid laughs again.)

Nazz: I'm pretty sure that came from Majora's Mask now.
Mario: AHHHH!
Nazz: What?
Mario: Look at the moon.

(The camera pans up to the moon and reveals it has a face like the one in Majora's Mask.)

Mario & Nazz: AHHHHH!
Mario: We gotta get out of these woods that got us lost!
Nazz: The Lost Woods! That's why we hear that laughter. It's Skull Kid's!
Mario: I'm glad I'm dating a Zelda fanatic.
Nazz: I know. We have to find a way out.

("Saria's Song" plays faintly.)

Mario: Do you hear that?
Nazz: Yeah.
Mario: Think we should follow it?
Nazz: That's what you had to do in Ocarina of Time.

(They follow it. A figure watches over them and tosses a phone around.)
(Fade to: Friendly's.)

Cindy: Where's Mario?
Ed: I don't know. I'll call him. (He calls but all his phone says is: UR GAY.) Aw man! The gay virus spread to my phone!
Kent: Try calling him again.
Ed: Okay. (He calls and it works.) My phone isn't saying UR GAY anymore.
Kent: Put it on speaker.
Phone: This number has been disconnected please try again if he survives.
Bebe: That's weird.
Ed: Guys, check out my phone.

(The text says, "You shouldn't have done that.")

Cindy: Weird.
Ed: Hey Cindy, you have something on your face.

(He puts a napkin over her head.)

Cindy: It's okay, I have no trouble seeing you.
Ed: Seeing me?
Cindy: If you guys are dating, how come you never kissed?
Bebe: Because we just started on Wednesday, again I say.

(Cindy takes the napkin off.)

Cindy: You didn't have to put that napkin on me, you can do whatever you want to me.
Ed: I can gag you, tie you up, put you in an airless crate and send you to Australia?
Cindy: Don't be silly.
Ed: I'm getting a call. It's from Mario.
Bebe: Put it on speaker.
Ed: Why?
Kent: Because we can't trust you when you repeat people's words when on the phone.
Ed: Right.

(All they hear, is a scream and then a series of laughter until the call drops.)

Kent: What the firetruck.
Ed: Let's go. I need you guys to help me escort Cindy to a special place.

(Fade to: A shed. Caption: 1 Hour Later...)

Cindy: Why am I blindfolded and my hands are tied?
Ed: You'll see. You guys wait outside.

(He takes her inside. They hear grunts and screams.)
(Cut to: Inside the shed.)

Ed: Did you see?
Cindy: Well, I can't see anything.

(He unties and her.)

Ed: So did you see?
Cindy: See what?
Ed: The guys who knocked me out and beat you!
Cindy: No! I'm still blindfolded! My face feels weird. Unblindfold me!

(He unblindfolds her and her face has changed to a beautiful face.)

Ed: Oh my god.
Cindy: What is it?
Ed: You're beautiful.
Cindy: I'm not fugsly anymore?
Ed: Nope! Wait, you thought you were fugsly?
Cindy: Have you seen my face before?
Ed: Right. Here.

(He grabs a shard of glass. She looks at her reflection and likes it. She hugs him.)

Cindy: I'm so glad you brought me here!
Ed: Wanna go on a second date? You know, just the two of us?
Cindy: Of course!

(Cut to: The Lost Woods. Saria's Song plays louder.)

Mario: I see an opening!
Nazz: Is that a shed?
Mario: I think so. Is that Kent and Bebe?
Nazz: It is!
Mario's Inner Monologue: Hey guys!
Kent: Did you hear that?
Bebe: Yeah it sounded like Mario & Nazz.
Mario's Inner Monologue: Hey guys! We're in the forest!
Kent: It is. They're in that forest!
Bebe: How do you know?
Kent: Telepathy.
Bebe: Oh.

(They keep following the sight of Bebe and Kent. Saria's Song starts to faint gradually. They stop, realizing this and follow the music again knowing that it was an illusion. They keep following it and finally get to the actual Kent and Bebe.)

Kent: Told ya!
Mario: Where's Ed?
Bebe: Inside the shed.
Nazz: Why?
Kent & Bebe: We don't know

(Ed and Cindy walk out.).

Kent: Ed, who's that?
Cindy: It's me Cindy!
Mario's Inner Monologue: What happened to her?
Ed's Inner Monologue: I beat her with a bat and her face just became this.
Kent's Inner Monologue: Nice.
Ed's Inner Monologue: You know, I guess we all have stories worth telling.

(Fade to: Kent's basement. Kent, Bebe, Ed, Cindy, Mario, and Nazz are talking amongst each other.)

Ed's Inner Monologue: Whether it's having to tell the truth that you're not dating.
Cindy: It's okay, I kinda had a feeling that you were only there for Ed. You two do look like a good couple.
Kent: I don't see it.
Ed's Inner Monologue: Realizing that you like someone.
Bebe's Inner Monologue: You're an idiot Kent. If only you knew.
Kent's Inner Monologue: Knew what?
Bebe's Inner Monologue: Nothing.
Ed's Inner Monologue: Telling how you got lost and your discoveries.
Ed: You got lost in the woods where Kent went leaf sledding just by teleporting there accidentally?
Kent: I told you to practice.
Mario: I know.
Bebe: And you saw the moon with a face?
Nazz: Yeah!
Cindy: You're probably seeing things.
Mario: Maybe.
Ed's Inner Monologue: Or explaining how you lost your phone.
Ed: Oh yeah, I got your call at Friendly's. What was with all the screaming and laughter?
Mario: What are you talking about? I lost my phone sometime when we were lost. I couldn't have called you.
Ed: Weird.
Ed's Inner Monologue: They can all lead to a bigger storyline.

(Fade to: The Lost Woods. A figure tosses the same phone around. The phone is revealed to be Mario's. The figure laughs in a similar way to Skull Kid in Majora's Mask. The camera pans up to reveal the moon with a face, symbolizing the face that what Mario and Nazz saw was real.)
(Fade out. Fade in to: A blank screen with a Zelda-type dialogue box. It says, "Come play with us.")
(Final Fade out of episode.)
