Don't scare the fish, snobs.

One of your really great ideas to come out here.

Yep. Marianne!

Spike!

Hey!

You have to come and clean up your mess or you're in big trouble.

I know you can hear me.

If snobs can hear me, you can hear me.

Damn smokes.

You're going to be in so much trouble.

You're going to be in so much trouble.

Loser. You only won thanks to them.

You could have killed me, you stupid feral.

Yes, you could have killed us. It was an accident. What would you know?

We were racing. You shouldn't have moored to our marker. It's not your

Yeah, where's the sign saying it's your water? It was an accident, Ethan. They

didn't know it was marker.

Abby's right.

You can't blame the ferals. They don't know any better. I mean, they call that

boat.

This is getting stupid. Very stupid.

Come on.

Just because you can't afford one, I wouldn't want one. You wouldn't know how

sell one anyway.

If you can sell one, anyone can.

Yeah? Want to race? Anytime you like.

Hey, my boat.

You're a moron. You've never sailed in your life. You and your stupid pride.

Don't borrow your boat.

You want my advice? Tell Ethan you were joking.

Can I borrow your boat? I can't teach you to sail by tomorrow.

I'll teach myself how to sail. Just let me borrow the boat.

Pay attention to the headmaster, please, everyone.

Thanks, Mrs Church. Just reminding you all the election for school captain is

tomorrow.

Brooke Bellingham is the only candidate so far. But we'd like to see a healthy

contest with lots of candidates.

Hands up who's keen to stand for the election.

Anyone who changes their mind should see me today.

Hey, I'll borrow someone else's boat.

Come on, stand for school captain.

You love that sort of thing.

It doesn't interest me. Of course it does. You get to boss people around.

Cut me hair.

Wipe your nose.

It's a silly popularity contest. I wouldn't lower myself.

I need people like Brooke to take it seriously.

Huh? Yes, Ryan, we all know you've got a new mobile.

I bet you $10 I can make Pia stand against me.

Bet you can't.

I know the ferals better than you do.

You're not standing for school captain?

Of course she's not. It's a silly popularity contest.

Oh, well, you have to say that, don't you? Why? You're a feral. You're scared

one will vote for you. That's got nothing to do with it.

They've been voting for the person, not what I look like. Oh, so you're scared

you won't get a vote because you're a really, really boring person. I am not

scared. I think she's scared.

Me too.

Yeah, she's chicken.

I'll show you I'm not scared. I'll stand against you.

May the best person win.

And I know I will.

Where's Miss Alexander?

The Farrells are so proud.

They're so much fun.

Ten dollars, thanks.

you've just done.

I've shown the same stupid pride as Marion.

Stop it, snobs!

Look, I know you're hungry, but you're on a health food diet.

Come in.

And leave Ethan's boat alone.

He's the problem, not the boat.

It's my boat. I'm allowed to watch. And I need a good laugh.

I didn't say I'd get it right the first time.

That's so pathetic, I can't laugh.

Hey. Hey.

What's the matter?

I'm standing for school captain against Brooke.

What? What's going on?

Nothing. You can't keep it a secret.

Hey, P, it's got a secret.

What? Thanks a lot. You can't keep that secret.

No one will know to vote for you. You're standing for school captain?

She's what?

So how come you changed your mind?

It's none of your business.

Why would anyone want to be school captain?

Can you get into the boat and stay in yet?

Pardon? Yeah, what was that?

Um, I said... Maybe I need just one listen.

Mrs Church?

Here. Mr Alexander told me you're standing for school captain.

That's right.

I must admit I was surprised, but good for you.

Tell me, why did you decide to stand?

Just, uh, because.

But I forgot to ask Mr Alexander, what do I actually have to do?

Apart from make your speech.

I have to make a speech?

Tomorrow morning, to all of you five and six.

What do I have to say?

Just tell them why you think you'd make a better school captain than Brooke.

It shouldn't be all that difficult, Pia.

You must have thought long and hard about this before you decided to stand.

Um, sorry, Mrs Church.

I have to go.

What's your mobile number?

What for?

Program it into my new phone.

041528.

Hey. Okay, now that you can sit there without falling out... Just get on with

it.

This is... Well, it's called the tiller. You can call it the steering wheel. I'm

not an idiot.

Who said?

Nick off!

We're moving my boat inside.

Yeah, before you get any clever ideas about sabotaging it, I wouldn't touch

stupid boat.

Yeah, that's right, snobs. He's the problem, not the boat. Tell your dog to

away.

Here, snobs.

Hey!

It could do with a wash anyway.

Tell your mongrel to stay away from my boat, right?

Reckon we can go sailing now?

Psst.

Hi, what's wrong?

I'm just as stupid as Marion.

What do you mean? No one's as stupid as Marion.

I'm only standing... She said I was too chicken to.

Oh. I let her con me. Just like Marion let Ethan con him.

Except Marion was only boasting. You'd be a heaps better school captain than

Brooke. Truly?

Heaps and heaps better. What does she do except swan around?

Yeah. What about the library?

The books in there are all worn out. Brooke only reads fashion and pony club

magazines. I could ask Mr. Alexander for new books. And more of them. You see,

you'll make a great school captain.

But I have to make a speech in the morning.

I've never made one before. Speeches are easy. I'll be so nervous.

Not if you believe what you're saying, and you believe you'll be a better

captain than Brooke.

How come you changed your mind about the elections?

Because I think I'd make a better school captain than Brooke. Well, duh, of

course you would.

But why didn't you say so?

Excuse me, I've got to finish writing down my speech.

You have to write a speech?

Don't you know anything?

Give us a look.

Why don't you have business?

No, no, no, no, no.

This ought to be good.

Couldn't even stay in the boat yesterday.

Can't be him.

It is him.

What are you doing?

Calling Ethan. He's got to see this.

Eden Beach Chemist Shop?

What's Ethan doing at the chemist?

Sorry, wrong number.

It's not at the chemist, idiot.

I programmed the wrong number. Come on.

Keep it to the wind, Marion.

He's doing well, eh, Snop?

Get down to the boathouse.

What for? You're not going to like what you see.

Boat's back here.

Ethan's in trouble. Yeah.

Marion can sail. Really sail?

That's Ethan's problem. Look at this.

They're all over the place.

Who helped her?

Maybe Carla's putting them up.

The handwriting's all different.

How come Pia's so popular all of a sudden?

How come Marion can sail all of a sudden? Look, I don't care about Marion.

can't beat me.

it should be late for today's election speeches.

Really, really, really late.

I haven't taught you enough to sail like that. How'd you do it? Well, I just

watched where the breeze came from, then turned the steering wheel. That's what

sailing is, but you have to be very experienced.

I am.

You're not.

I know how to watch the breeze. I do it every time I track a rabbit.

Otherwise, it involves me coming.

Reckon I can beat Ethan?

I reckon you'll give him a good race.

Come on, we have to get to school. The election's this morning.

Hey, you're going to be late for school.

No, I won't. Is that your speech?

Give us a read! Hey, give it back!

What are you doing here?

Got her! Come on!

Hey! I'm in here! Let me out!

Let me out!

Hey!

Where's Pia?

She's got to make a speech in five minutes. She has to make a speech? Don't

know anything?

Excuse me.

Is it time to start the speeches?

Pierre isn't here. Besides, another couple of minutes yet.

Oh, feeling me. My watch must be fast.

I'm going to miss my speech.

What were you doing here anyway?

Fixing something on my boat.

That's your boat.

You were fiddling with Abby's boat.

I wasn't fiddling.

I was looking at her. You were fiddling.

No, I wasn't.

What's this?

The shackle. It came off in my hand.

Oh, I bet.

Marion was going to race in this boat this afternoon.

You were trying to sabotage it. Okay, okay.

I'll put it back.

But why are we trying to sabotage the boat?

Marion can't sail.

You can.

You're very good, and I want her to win.

Please don't tell anyone.

What? If my parents find out, they'll kill me.

There. See? Perfect.

If you don't tell anyone what I did, I'll help you beat Brooke.

But I'm stuck in here.

I won't get to make my speech, and I'll probably be disqualified.

I'll find a way out.

And I've got a lot of friends.

I'll get them all to vote for you.

You'll beat her easily.

But wouldn't that be cheating?

It wouldn't be cheating.

You'd make a much better school captain than Brooke. And I bet you've got Ryan

and Sam to stick you in here.

I'd know I'd make a better school captain than that. You would.

You deserve to win.

That's why it's not cheating.

Deal? You won't tell anyone what I did.

Okay?

Where is she?

Time's up.

Pia knew she had to make a speech this morning. I told her myself.

Just a couple more minutes, Mrs Church, please.

We'll find her. Come on.

No, you're on a diet. Stop it.

She's not down there.

Well, she's not at home. Kizzy said she left ages ago.

Where is she?

That's Pia's speech.

Where is she? Too late anyway. She can't make a speech.

Where is she?

That's my new mobile.

Tell us where she is or he'll eat it. Your dog's stupid, but he wouldn't eat a

mobile phone.

Oh. Well, he's on a diet and he's starving. Tell us where she is.

I don't know.

In the boat shed. Come on.

You're too late.

Drop it.

I think we've been more than fair to Pia.

I'm now going to ask Brooke Bellingham to make her speech, and if there's still

no sign of Pia when Brooke is finished, then we'll have no option but to declare

Brooke elected captain of the school.

I want to find a good way out.

Um, what was he doing in there?

I was checking my boat, wasn't I?

He was checking his boat.

See you this afternoon.

You bet.

Am I going to miss my speech?

Let's hope not. Come on.

Apart from all of that, if I'm elected, I promise that all the best, most

fabulous fashion and pony club magazines will be available in the school

library.

In conclusion, I'd just like to say how sorry I am that Pia chickened out.

But then she's a feral, isn't she?

Thank you.

Thank you, Brooke.

I'd just like to say, in different words, of course, how sorry we all are

Pia, for whatever reason, didn't contest the election.

Be that as it may...

I now hereby declare that the new captain of Eden Beach Prime... Hang on!

Am I too late?

Almost.

Sorry, I'm puffed.

Sorry,

I've lost my speech and I can't remember any of it.

All I'd like to say is that I hope the best person wins.

because that's the way it should be.

Thank you, Pia, for that very different speech.

Well, now it's time for you all to vote, and I'll announce the winner first

thing tomorrow morning.

She wasn't supposed to be. What happened?

That fancy dog.

It's my mobile phone.

Everyone

I

spoke to said they voted for you.

I don't want to talk about it. Why not?

I just don't.

Ethan said Mary could sail.

And he can.

I don't know how he's doing it.

Selling's like trapping rabbits, apparently.

He's famous for being an idiot.

Main sheets don't break if you look after them. I checked it yesterday.

It was perfect.

Maybe someone cut it. I wonder who would have a reason. I didn't touch it. I

don't cheat.

I think your dog's saying you do.

I don't.

What's the matter, snobs?

That looks like...

That's my main sheet.

Sorry. He's been a bit hungry lately.

Okay, so your dog stopped Ethan from winning. You were leading. You should be

the winner.

That's fair.

Snobs did it. You were leading.

Call it a tie.

What? Tie.

That's what you want.

It's fair.

So will you be able to get me out of detentions? Can you give him detentions?

Hi. Hello.

Good luck.

If you really do want to win.

If I don't win, you two are dead.

All right, everyone. Pay attention to the headmaster.

I have in here the name of the Eden Beach Primary School captain.

So without any further ado... Sir, Mr Alexander.

Sorry to interrupt.

Yes, Pia?

Please. Could I withdraw from the election?

Yes.

Well, of course you can, Pia, if it's what you really want to do.

It is. Yes, please.

I see.

Very well.

In that case, I declare Brooke Bellingham to be the captain of Eden

Primary School.

See?

I told you I knew the ferals better than you did.

Pia let you win.

What?

You should have been the school captain.

I decided I didn't want to be.

You know why you should have been school captain?

Why? Because the school captain wouldn't be here crowding us out.

I know you can hear me.
