Hey, Freddie.

Freddie?

Hello?

I keep staring at the graceful curve of your neck?

What?

Freddie, are you writing a love letter? No, it's just a note to my gym coach.

Can't be. Coach Weber has no neck.

Who is it? Who's it for, Freddie? Who's it for?

Who do you have a crush on, Freddie?

Fine, I'll tell you, but seriously, you can't tell anyone.

Okay, I promise I won't tell anyone.

No, I need you to really promise.

I need you to swear on Gwen Stefani's life that you won't tell anyone.

Whoa, that's serious.

Okay, I Stefani swear.

The notes for summer.

Wait,

are we standing or sitting?

Standing.

Whoa.

That's... Whoa.

I know. It kind of surprised me, too, when I realized it.

What if I only tell one person?

Did Gwen just get a really bad ice cream headache?

Nope. She died.

And seriously, Tamika, you can't tell anyone.

Mr. Finn is the only other person who knows.

So, what do you think?

Do you think she likes me back?

Raise your right hand and place your left hand on this copy of The Perks of

Staring at Stars.

Never read it. What?

Do it anyway.

You will never tell anyone that I am mad crushing on Freddie.

I do.

She's never mentioned you.

Oh, come on. You guys talk about everything together.

You know how us girls are. We don't talk about our feelings like you guys do.

Okay, well, I'll know if she likes me soon. I have a whole plan. A plan? I

slipped a secret admirer note into her notebook when she isn't looking.

Then later I ask her if she's gotten it, and when she says how romantic it is, I

tell her it was from me.

Then tomorrow we celebrate my birthday as girlfriend and boyfriend.

That sounds great. I just wonder if there's maybe a slightly less elaborate

to tell her. I already got rid of the doves, the white horse, and the string

quartet. All that's left is a confetti cannon in my locker. Simple.

All right, so you distract her while I think my letter into her notebook.

Okay, but I gotta warn you, when Summer is studying, she is laser -focused.

Like Mr.

Finn when they're pizza bagels at lunch. Wow.

Summer!

Summer! Summer!

Summer! Summer!

Summer! Summer!

Summer! Summer! Summer! Summer! Summer! Summer!

Uh...

Hey, Sum, what did you get for number three on that quiz?

That's an interesting one, because frogs can absorb oxygen through their skin in

the water or on land, but they can also gulp air through their mouth, so... Oh,

I just remembered.

I don't care. Bye!

Hello, Summer.

As student council parliamentarian, I thought I'd submit this written

We've talked about this, Clark. You are not getting a chair made out of swords.

You haven't heard the last of this.

Winter is coming.

Ready to get our study on, Summer?

Oh, sorry.

I kind of already finished.

Do you want a copy of my note?

Cool. Thanks.

Whoa.

Finally, someone appreciates the graceful curve of my neck. And not just

girl. The girl!

It is nice.

Let go now.

Hey, Summer.

Hey, Summer.

Hey, Summer.

Hey, Summer!

What's happening?

So, uh, what do you think of that note you got?

How do you know about that?

Not telling.

So what did you think?

Ugh, so needy. Why even bother me with that stuff?

Hey, show me what you know. Give it up to rock and roll. Cause we ain't gonna

stop.

If you're feeling like you're getting stoned.

There's a history in front of you.

Hey, show me what you know. Give it up to rock and roll. Cause we ain't gonna

stop. Are you ready to rock?

Sorry I'm late. Sorry about a lot of things.

What?

But that's... Hey, Freddie.

6x equals 77, then what's x?

Who cares?

Nothing matters anymore.

Huh.

That doesn't seem right.

Mr. Finn, can I be sure to go to the bathroom or just randomly wander the

or something?

Pretty sure I'm not supposed to just... Thanks, later.

Boy, he's a mess.

Well, yeah, but shouldn't we keep our voices down? Mr. Finn's right there.

Not Mr. Finn.

Although, yeah, him too.

Freddy! Yeah, he was all, Grumble, grumble, I'm Freddy.

Grumble.

I wonder what's going on with him.

I have no idea. Which one's Freddy?

I think I've got it figured out. It's his birthday tomorrow.

The first one with his mom out of town.

He's got a lair bear, but it's not the same. So what do we do? We throw him a

birthday party. A surprise birthday party.

Ah! I don't think his birthday is the problem. No, no, no, no. You can't let

know about surprise parties. Oh, it's too late.

Wait. You don't like surprise parties? I love them. I am so pumped for this.

But fair warning, I have never not ruined a surprise party.

Surprise!

What are you talking about?

I always jump out and yell, surprise, before everyone else. One time even

several days before everyone else.

Mr. Finn, please don't ruin the party.

How about we all take an oath, not... Spoil the surprise party.

I'm surprised!

Sorry. Just getting it out of my system.

Okay. It's settled.

We'll throw a surprise party tomorrow.

Hello, children. I just wanted to remind you that we will be conducting a fire

drill tomorrow.

And you animals, don't move out of the building in a brisk and orderly fashion.

I've been authorized to use force.

No, you haven't.

talking about is for me.

How did they find out my birthday is tomorrow?

I mean, I guess what they say is true.

I really do put the pow in principle.

Oh, she's so sweet of them to think of me.

Why haven't you ever thrown me a surprise party?

Well, I, um, that, that is, um...

That is not an answer, Clark.

Hey there, cutie.

Cutie?

Listen, I just want to say, message received.

I know how you feel, and, uh, ditto.

What are you doing?

I know, right? What are we doing?

Uh, I don't know what's happening here, but, uh, I gotta go to class, so... I

love our witty banter.

I'll see you later, some, some summertime.

I've been here for hours. I'm so pumped for the surprise party today that I

couldn't sleep.

You're not going to be able to keep this a secret until this afternoon, are you,

Mr. Finn?

Nope, I am not.

You've got to pull it together.

On it.

Surprise!

We've got to do something.

I may have just the thing.

latest invention, the Pie -O -Matic 9000.

Now, pretend Zach is Freddy.

Oh, hey, Mr. Finn. Surprise!

He gets hit in the face with a pie every time he says it. Says what? Surprise!

It's not working. He likes pies too much.

Ooh, do Dutch apple next.

Uh... Principal Mullins.

Um... Zach, why don't you tell Principal Mullins what we were doing?

Oh, right. I... Lawrence?

Well, I... Uh... We, um... No need.

I'm sure whatever you're doing is very important.

So just carry on.

record, my favorite pie is rhubarb.

And I love a good surprise.

I figured out the perfect plan to trick Freddy into coming to a surprise party.

I'm gonna ask him to meet me in the quad to hang out.

But we aren't gonna be hanging out. We're gonna be partying.

Um, let me get this straight.

You're gonna trick Freddy into going to the quad by asking him to go to the

quad? Mm -hmm.

It sounded trickier in my head.

You're pretty excited about this party.

Seems like you really like Freddy.

I do. He's a good friend.

Just friend?

I mean, Freddy is pretty great and such a nice guy and so funny.

Yep, Freddy's great.

And cute, isn't he? Has that fancy hair.

Wait, OMG.

To me, do you like like Freddy?

What? No.

Sounds like you like him. I absolutely 100 % do not like Freddy.

Right.

Okay, you said right, but the way you said it makes me think you got it wrong.

Did I?

Like -liking, Freddie, that was your thing.

Or is?

I spent way too much time liking someone who didn't like me back.

I guess all I'm trying to say is I'm ready to like -like someone who I know

really like -likes me.

Hey, do either of you guys have any ice cream? I was hoping to get a little

Alamode sitch going on.

Okay.

Sorry, that wasn't for you.

Hey, I was wondering if you could give me some advice.

As old as you are, you've probably had a ton of girlfriends.

Well, you know, I'm not as old as I look. I've just made a lot of bad life

choices.

But you're coming to the right guy.

Ask away.

This girl I've liked for a while now gave me this note all about how much she

likes me and how grateful my neck is.

Awesome, dude.

We'll wait six months, and then I say marry her.

But now she's acting like she doesn't know what I'm talking about when I say I

like her back.

Ah, the old secret necknote no -show.

That's a doozy.

Here's the thing.

Female ladies like to be wooed.

And you took the first step.

Now she wants you to make a fuss.

Oh, I get it.

Thanks, Mr. Finn. I'm going to really show Summer how much I like her.

Wait, Summer?

But, Freddie!

Hold on, I want to change my advice!

What was Asher doing here?

He came to ask me advice about a girl who, in the end, I found out was Summer.

Kid's going to make a big play for her.

Oh, no.

Asher's going to ask Summer out?

She's going to ruin everything.

Here I am!

Just me, running my own business in my party dress.

Just you, isn't it?

Nice dress.

Shut it.

I want to talk to you about Summer.

Forget it. I give up.

Dude, you can give up on her.

You've got to fix this mess and take it up a notch with her.

Why? She didn't like my letter. She said blah, blah, blah.

One blah's bad enough, but three?

Look, I... Let's see.

Okay, I can tell you that Summer is ready for a boy who she knows like

her. I'm that boy. I know. So you have to tell her before some other boy tells

her he like -likes her.

Asher.

Asher!

What the heck are you doing?

Hugging you.

Your head's hurt.

Aw, that's sweet.

What's in the box?

It's a sweetheart necklace.

I'm gonna go give a thank you. I am honored to be your girlfriend.

BRB, I gotta go change my internet relationship status.

You sure it looks good?

Yes. I better measure the height again.

Freddie, your hair looks perfect. It always looks perfect.

You've got to do this now.

Okay, okay. It's a big step, you know. Yep, but you've got to take it before

after done.

I can't keep stalling him.

Hi, guys.

Look at you two hanging out together.

Hey, summer.

was wondering, do you want to hang out on the quad after school? Just you and

me. Nobody else.

Yes.

Yes, let's do that. Let's definitely do that.

Awesome. Well, I don't want to interrupt what you two got going on here.

Please stop winking.

See you guys.

She must have changed her mind about my letter.

This is happening.

What you think is happening might not be happening. We're going to be boyfriend

and girlfriend in the quad this afternoon.

It might seem crazy what I'm about to say.

I'm trying to see if you could take a break.

I'm a hot air balloon that can go to space.

With the air like I don't care, baby, by the way.

What you want to do?

Give me news like an internet.

Yeah. Give me all you got and don't hold it back enough.

Yeah. Well, I should probably warn you I'll be just fine.

Yeah. No offense to you, don't waste your time.

Bring me down.

My level's too high.

Bring me down. I can't nothing.

Bring me down. Clap along if you feel like a room without

a roof.

Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth.

Clap along if you know what happiness is to you.

Clap along if you feel.

Like that's what you want to do.

Freddy, could you get that off the table, please?

You're dancing on my tater tots.

I think we solved the Mr. Finn problem, so we're all set for Freddy's Surprise

Freddy's. Yeah, there's absolutely nothing else we need to do.

There's something I need to do.

I wish you wouldn't call me that.

Oh, man.

Sorry, I gotta go. No, stay with me.

What are you doing?

Holding you close, honey.

What's going on here?

I honestly don't know.

Just hanging with my fella.

I am not your fella.

Artie, you should probably know this, too.

Not that this is a competition, but I've won.

Summer and I are a thing.

What? Yeah, what?

You're cheating on me?

You.

Dog. We're not a couple.

But Summer likes me big time.

You should see this letter she wrote me. All about how much fun it is to hang

out with me and how graceful my neck is.

What the heck?

You got the letter?

She didn't write that letter for you.

I'm pretty sure she did.

Have you seen my neck?

No, dude. I wrote that letter. Oh.

Oh.

Freddie,

I'm sorry. I just don't have the same feelings for you.

What? No, no, no. I didn't write the letter to you. I wrote it for Summer.

So Summer doesn't... Man.

Okay, Tamika. Guess I'll give this thing a try.

Sorry, buddy. I've already moved on.

But I'll take the chocolates.

This has been a very confusing day.

Thanks for all your help, Tamika.

But... All these secret letters and confetti cannons were way too much. I

need to tell Summer how I feel.

That sounds like a great idea.

I wish someone had told you that.

I told you that.

Wish me luck.

Oh, what? Now might not be the best time.

Now you'll figure it out.

Summer?

Summer!

Oh, you were bummed about having your birthday away from your mom.

And we wanted to do something nice for you. It was my idea.

Good job, Larry.

And I didn't ruin it.

It'll help us.

Wow. This is amazing, guys.

Thank you so much.

Did you have any idea?

No.

You really had me fooled.

Certainly touched.

Hey, Principal Mullin. Uh, we're just doing a surprise party.

For Freddy.

Oh, oh, for, oh, oh.

Oh, how nice.

Wow, that must make you feel really good, Freddy.

Yeah, I've got some really great friends. Okay, you don't have to rub it

Well, carry on.

I'm just gonna go home and celebrate my birthday by microwaving a diet frozen

lasagna and dancing with my sweater.

Principal Mullins, wait.

Why don't you stick around for some floor cake?

Well, okay.

But I can't stay long.

Hey, Summer.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Yeah, sure. What's up?

Um, okay.

Look, there's something that I've been wanting to tell you for a while now, but

I couldn't figure out the right way to do it.

And I guess I might have been a little scared of what you might say.

But I just need to come out with it.

Summer Ann Hathaway.

Actually, my real middle name is Breathe.

Really? My parents are the worst.

Summer Breathe.

I like it.

Summer Breathe Hathaway.

I like you.

I mean, I really like like you.

Surprise!
