Sadie: [ Voice over ] SOMETIMES YOU JUST KNOW

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A GOOD DAY.

THERE'S EVEN A MATHEMATICAL EQUATION.

FOR EXAMPLE, ONE GOOD HAIR DAY...

TIMES TWO GREAT FRIENDS...

MINUS ANY BOY DRAMA...

PLUS MANY STUDENTS FLEEING FOR THEIR LIVES...

Students: [ Screaming ]

Sadie: [ Voice over ] CAN BE DIVIDED BY ONE EVIL COUSIN.

KATIE?

I THOUGHT I SMELLED WIMP.

PLEASE... PLEASE DON'T HURT ME.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

IT TURNS OUT ALL THE OTHER SCHOOLS IN THE NIAGARA REGION

DON'T HAVE "THE RESOURCES" TO HANDLE ME.

SO I'VE BEEN SENTENCED TO R.B. BENNETT.

I GUESS R.B. STANDS FOR REALLY BORING.

IS THAT WHY YOU LIKE IT HERE?

I WON'T ASK WHY YOU DIDN'T INTRODUCE US.

Hal: MMM! HEY, DAD, CHECK IT.

MMM.

SAVES ON DISHES.

I NEVER KNEW SAVING THE ENVIRONMENT

COULD BE SO DISGUSTING.

WAIT, SHOULDN'T YOU BE AT SCHOOL?

RELAX, DAD,

WHAT I JUST DID CAN'T BE TAUGHT IN BOOKS.

YOU HAVE TO LIVE IT.

TELL ME YOU'RE NOT SUSPENDED.

NO! IT'S FOR MY CO-OP PROGRAM.

I'M GETTING A REAL- LIFE EXPERIENCE

WORKING AT A REAL, LIVE WORKPLACE.

SO I'M WORKING FROM HOME WITH MOM.

BUT YOUR MOM'S ON A BOOK TOUR IN THE YUKON.

I KNOW, BUT, YOU KNOW,

ON A REGULAR DAY, BEFORE SHE'S DONE PLAYING SOLITAIRE,

THIS IS WHAT SHE DOES, RIGHT?

[ Heavy sigh ]

WHOA... AH-H...

OOF! GET UP AND GET DRESSED.

YOU'RE COMING TO WORK WITH ME.

I'M INTRODUCING YOU TO THE EXCITING WORLD

OF ELECTRO-ENGINEERING.

AH! AH-H-H! MY APPENDIX!

YOUR APPENDIX IS ON THE OTHER SIDE.

REALLY?

UH, IT MUST HAVE MOVED.

THAT'S WHY IT HURTS SO MUCH.

UPSTAIRS.

GLUING THE LOCKER SHUT:

DID IT FIRST.

PLASTIC WRAP ON A TOILET:

OWN THE PATENT.

CLEARING OUT AN ASSEMBLY IN LESS THAN 50 SECONDS:

MADE THE TRAINING VIDEO.

READ ABOUT ALL THESE TECHNIQUES AND MORE

IN MY BOOK, "PRANK-ONOMICS".

ONLY TEN BUCKS FOR A LIMITED FIRST EDITION.

Ms. Mann: [ Singsong ] MAKE WAY. PRINCIPAL OF THE YEAR

COMING THROUGH...

KATIE. WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE ANY PROBLEMS

WITH YOU HERE AT BENNETT, ARE WE?

OH, NO, MS. MANN.

I'VE LEARNED MY LESSON.

I'VE LEFT BEHIND MY UNDERACHIEVING WAYS.

I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO MAKING

SOME BIG CHANGES IN MY LIFE.

GLAD TO HEAR IT.

I'M NOT MAKING ANY CHANGES.

SO, WHAT'S THIS ABOUT YOUR COUSIN BEING HERE?

OH, KATIE.

YEAH, SHE'S HERE. BUT DON'T WORRY,

SHE'LL WANT NOTHING TO DO WITH US.

Katie: SADIE.

IS THIS YOUR BOYFRIEND?

IF YOU MEAN A BOY

WHO IS ALSO A FRIEND, THEN YES.

AND IF YOU MEAN A BOY

WHO USED TO BE MY BOYFRIEND,

THEN YES TO THAT TOO.

BUT IF YOU'RE ASKING ME... AH,

A VOICE AS LOVELY AS A DIAL TONE.

I'M HER COUSIN, KATIE.

I DON'T NORMALLY COP TO THAT.

I-I'M... I'M BEN. GET OUT!

YOU'RE THAT "CHYMO" GUY I READ ABOUT IN SADIE'S DIARY?

OH MAN!

SHE WAS TOTALLY OBSESSED WITH YOU.

YOU ARE NOW TRAVELLING THROUGH ANOTHER DIMENSION.

ANOTHER SPACE AND TIME

WHERE NO ONE SEES THROUGH KATIE'S CHARADE.

WHERE COUSINS ARE IDENTICAL

DESPITE HAVING SEPARATE SETS OF PARENTS.

YOUR NEXT STOP,

BIZARRO-LAND.

HEY, WANT TO GRAB SOME SLOP IN THE CAF LATER?

SOUNDS GOOD.

I WOULD LOVE TO, BUT I HAVE A DATE

WITH MY ERLENMEYER FLASK.

NICE TO SEE YOU'RE DATING IN YOUR LEAGUE THIS TIME.

REMEMBER, WHEN YOU FIND YOUR LOCKER

FILLED WITH SHAVING CREAM, I TRIED TO WARN YOU.

SHE'S NEW HERE.

WOULD IT KILL YOU TO BE NICE?

Sadie: [ Voice over ] UH... BUT I AM THE NICE ONE!

OKAY, I AM READY FOR WORK.

I DON'T THINK SO.

WHAT, TOO MUCH "POWER" IN MY TIE?

NOT ENOUGH "DRESS" IN YOUR SHIRT.

HAL, THERE'S AN OLD SAYING:

DRESS FOR THE JOB YOU WANT,

NOT FOR THE JOB YOU HAVE.

BUT I DON'T EVEN HAVE A JOB.

AND YOU LOOK IT.

BACK UPSTAIRS.

AW, MAN.

YOU KNOW, I...

I EVEN IRONED IT AND EVERYTHING.

I JUST GOT A MESSAGE FROM THAT CUTE BOY

WHO SITS BEHIND ME IN ENGLISH.

WHAT DID HE SAY?

HARD TO SAY.

THAT'S WHY I NEED RAIN TO DECODE HIS TEXT MESSAGE.

YOU'RE THE CLOSEST THING AROUND HERE TO A GUY.

THANKS!

HEY! [ Beep of cell phone ]

WELL, IF MY MAN-O-STAT SERVES ME,

IT LOOKS LIKE HE'S WINKING.

AND THAT MEANS HE LIKEY MARG...

[ Sniffing ]

QUICK, MASK THE STENCH OF FEAR!

HOW'D YOUR DATE WITH THE FLASK GO?

LET ME GUESS. YOU GOT STOOD UP.

HUH! MAYBE THE FLASK AND I

HAVE AGREED TO SEE OTHER PEOPLE.

Sadie: [ Voice over ] OKAY, THAT WAS TOTALLY LAME.

ADVANTAGE: KATIE.

DO YOU GUYS WANT TO SIT DOWN?

UH, NO. KATIE AND I ARE GOING TO GO EAT OUTSIDE.

WHY? IS IT EDGIER?

LET'S GO.

WE'RE GETTING BORING BY ASSOCIATION.

BUT...

THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A GOOD DAY!

I HAD A MATHEMATICAL FORMULA AND EVERYTHING.

...AND THAT'S RECEPTION,

AND THIS IS THE KITCHEN... DOUGHNUT ROOM!

YES!

Walter: OH, DAVE.

THIS IS MY SON, HAL.

HAL, THIS IS DAVE MAYBERRY.

MISTER MAYBERRY TO YOU.

WE'RE COLLABORATING ON THE THOMPSON- REID ACCOUNT.

GOOD TO MEET YOU, HAL.

HEY, WHAT'S UP, BIG TIME?

HEH?

YEAH. [ Chuckle ]

"BIG TIME"?

YEAH, YEAH, I COULD GET USED TO THAT.

BIG TIME.

BIG TIME... [ Beep of P.A. system ]

Woman: [ On P.A. ] MR. HAWTHORNE, PLEASE COME TO RECEPTION.

MR. HAWTHORNE.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK, OKAY?

IN THE MEANTIME,

DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT'LL GET ME FIRED.

HEY, NO PROBLEM.

OOH, MY FAVOURITE!

OOH, SOUP IN A MOUTH.

INSTANT AND OH-SO-TASTY.

MM, MMM...

MMMM!

HAL!

IN THE WORKPLACE,

IT'S THE PEOPLE WHO USE BOWLS

THAT GET PROMOTED.

RIGHT.

SCORES!

[ Snickering ] YES.

Sadie: DON'T YOU THINK I SHOULD SAY SOMETHING TO BEN ABOUT KATIE?

I DON'T KNOW, SADE.

BEN'S A SMART GUY.

I MEAN, HE SAW RIGHT THROUGH ARDEN.

YOU HAVE TO WARN BEN ABOUT THE SHE-DEVIL.

LOOK!

SHE'S ALREADY SUCKING THE LIFE FORCE

RIGHT OUT OF HIM.

I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!

IT TOOK ME AND BEN MONTHS TO KISS!

IT TOOK KATIE FIVE HOURS.

AND I THOUGHT THE PRINCESS OF DARKNESS

WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AN UNDERACHIEVER.

WHAT DOES THE MAN-O-STAT SAY?

THE MAN-O-STAT SAYS SADIE SHOULD WARN BEN.

BUT IF KATIE ASKS,

I NEVER GAVE YOU THAT ADVICE

AND YOU NEVER SAW ME!

GOODBYE, STENCH OF FEAR,

HELLO, SCENT OF LILAC AND MUSK. [ Spritzing of cologne ]

LATER, CHYMO. SEE YOU, KATIE.

BEN!

SADIE, ARE YOU OKAY?

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SAY THIS,

BUT KATIE IS...

EVIL AND MANIPULATIVE.

REALLY? 'CAUSE TO ME,

SHE SEEMS INTERESTING AND COMPLICATED.

ONLY BECAUSE SHE'S EVILLY MANIPULATED YOU INTO BELIEVING THAT.

I THINK FOR MYSELF, OKAY?

AND FROM WHAT I SEE, KATIE HAS GUTS.

SHE TAKES CHANCES YOU NEVER WOULD.

HEY! I TAKE TONNES OF CHANCES.

WOO-OOO! WOO-OOO!

SOMEBODY CALL THE FASHION POLICE.

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT,

I'M WEARING STRIPES WITH CHECKS.

YOU ARE A WILD ONE.

[ ♪♪♪ ]

OKAY, HOW CAN I PUT THIS IN A WAY YOU'LL UNDERSTAND?

KATIE IS INTERESTED IN YOU TO GET BACK AT ME.

KATIE SAID YOU'D SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

SEE! ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF HER EVIL GENIUS.

SHE ALSO PREDICTED YOU'D SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

OKAY. WELL,

HOW ABOUT THIS?

DID SHE PREDICT I'D DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT?

ACTUALLY, YEAH, SHE DID.

LOOK, SADIE, HOW CAN I PUT THIS IN WAY YOU'LL UNDERSTAND?

IT SEEMS LIKE I'M THE BOOK YOU JUST CAN'T PUT DOWN.

I CAN TOO PUT YOU DOWN.

SO YOU'RE COOL THEN?

YOU'RE OKAY WITH ME AND KATIE?

SURE. GOOD, THEN.

I'M GLAD WE AGREE.

[ Sigh ]

I NEED YOU TO DO SOMETHING FOR ME.

DROP THE SCIENCE ON ME.

I CAN HANDLE IT. LEARN TO USE THE PHOTOCOPIER

AND THE FAX MACHINE.

I'LL HAVE SOME WORK FOR YOU TOMORROW.

I CAN DO THAT.

[ ♪♪♪ ]

SWEET.

"HELP! STUCK IN A DEAD END JOB."

[ Chuckling ]

[ ♪♪♪ ]

HEY, DAD. THANKS FOR GIVING ME THE SWEET GIFT OF LIFE

SO I COULD BE RELATED TO EVIL COUSIN KATIE.

YOU'RE WELCOME, PUMPKIN.

WHEN THE SCREEN ASKS, "SEND ALL?"

THAT MEANS YOU'RE FAXING

EVERY DEPARTMENT IN THE COMPANY.

INCLUDING THE FOREIGN OFFICES.

THERE WAS A SCREEN? UH-HUH.

THERE ARE FOREIGN OFFICES? UH-HUH.

THERE ARE OTHER DEPARTMENTS IN THE COMPANY?

TOMORROW, LET'S START FRESH.

WE'LL SEE IF WE CAN GET THROUGH A WHOLE DAY

WITHOUT JEOPARDIZING MY JOB.

UH-HUH. UM, I CAN STILL EAT SNACKS, RIGHT?

WHAT'S YOUR DAMAGE?

I FAXED A HOMEMADE COMIC AROUND THE WORLD.

IT'S A SPOOF ON OFFICE LIFE CALLED "DOOZIE".

YOU? I WAS TERRORIZED BY MY LEAST FAVOURITE COUSIN.

KATIE TRANSFERRED TO BENNETT.

THE EMPRESS OF ALL EVIL? HOW'D THAT HAPPEN?

LET'S JUST SAY SHE EXPELLED HER WAY INTO OUR LIVES.

NOW SHE'S AFTER BEN TO GET BACK AT ME.

THIS SOUNDS LIKE A GREAT IDEA FOR A "DOOZIE" CARTOON!

DOOZIE GETS JEALOUS WHEN HIS EVIL TWIN... WAIT,

I AM NOT JEALOUS.

IN THEORY.

I MEAN, I WANT BEN...

AH-HA! SEE? YOU WANT BEN.

...TO BE HAPPY,

JUST NOT WITH KATIE.

LOOK, YOU WANT HER TO BE GONE? NOT A PROBLEM.

SEE, I RIGGED IT

SO THAT EVERYTHING WOULD GO PERFECT TO PLAN

AND MS. MANN WOULD BE ELECTED

PRINCIPAL OF THE YEAR.

AND YET YOU CAN'T WORK THE FAX MACHINE.

WHICH MEANS THERE'S SOME CELEBRATING TO DO.

NOW, IF YOU WANT TO BURY KATIE,

YOU'RE GOING TO NEED A CAKE.

ALL RIGHT, MS. MANN PREFERS VANILLA.

NOW, MS. MANN'S GOING TO LEAVE HER OFFICE

AT 3:00 O'CLOCK, AND THE KEY

IS TO GET MARGARET TO MAKE YOU INTO KATIE...

♪ I KEEP ON REACHING OUT ♪

♪ NO ONE IS GOING TO STOP ME ♪

♪ EVERYTHING IS JUST RIGHT ♪

GRRRR!

GRRRR!

♪ DON'T NEED ANYONE... ♪

HORRIFYING.

I MEAN PERFECT.

ONE LAST THING.

I DO GOOD WORK.

♪ THIS IS ME ♪

SO I ASK HIM, "DAD, HOW DO I MEET GIRLS?"

AND HE SAYS, "WHY DO YOU WANT TO MEET GIRLS

WHEN YOU CAN SLAY THE QUEEN OF THE NEBULA?"

[ Laughter ]

HEY, IF IT ISN'T

THE KING OF THE DRUIDS HIMSELF.

HEY, HEY, HEY.

DRUIDS DON'T HAVE KINGS, DAVE.

IT'S A BROTHERHOOD.

WHOOPS!

LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE JUST CAST A SPELL

OF SOCIAL AWKWARDNESS.

[ Chuckling ] HAWTHORNE,

YOUR KID IS A CUT-UP.

I GUESS SOMETIMES THE APPLE CAN FALL

PRETTY FAR FROM THE TREE.

[ Chuckling ]

HEY, THANKS FOR THE NANAIMO BAR,

H-BOMB.

HEY, NO PROBLEM,

BIG TIME.

Hal & Dave: WOO-LOO-LOO-LOOP!

[ Laughter ] [ Beep of P.A. system ]

Woman: [ Over P.A. ] WOULD THE PERSON WHO PUT THE MOZZARELLA

IN THE PAPER SHREDDER PLEASE COME TO RECEPTION?

FYI, IT WAS MONTEREY JACK.

BIG TIME DIGS MY NACHOS.

SMELL YOU LATER.

[ To herself ] OKAY, HAL,

I'VE GOT THE CAKE FOR MS. MANN.

NOW, WHERE DO I FIND THE SPARKLERS?

GOOD SPOT, HAL. COME TO MAMA.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

I COULD ASK YOU THE SAME THING, NERDBAIT.

THAT IS THE SPARKLE-TRON 4000,

NOW BLOWING UP CAKES BIGGER THAN EVER BEFORE.

KATIE, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

W-WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO? JUST WAIT.

DON'T WORRY, YOU'LL SEE.

OOOH, CAKE!

IT'S A PRESENT FOR OUR FAVOURITE PRINCIPAL.

SURPRISE! AWW,

IS THIS ABOUT THAT WHOLE

PRINCIPAL OF THE YEAR HULLABALOO?

I DIDN'T WANT TO MAKE A GREAT DEAL OUT OF IT,

BUT THANK YOU.

[ Chuckling ]

♪ HERE SHE COMES ♪

[ Explosion ]

[ ♪♪♪ ]

I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF STUNT

YOU TWO WERE TRYING TO PULL,

BUT THIS HAS KATIE WRITTEN ALL OVER IT.

NOW... WHICH ONE OF YOU IS SHE?

SPILL IT.

I'VE GOT A DNA KIT

AND I'M NOT AFRAID TO USE IT.

UH, MS. MANN?

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT KIND OF STUNT

KATIE WAS TRYING TO PULL.

Sadie: [ Voice over ] KATIE IS PRETENDING TO BE ME!

YOU'LL NEVER GET AWAY WITH THIS.

SEE, THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE WRONG, NERDBAIT.

YOU'RE GOING DOWN.

BUT GOOD ALWAYS WINS OVER EVIL.

NOT THIS TIME.

GOOD IS NICE.

GOOD IS SLOW.

GOOD DOESN'T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN.

[ Sniff ]

SAYS YOU.

THAT'S KATIE.

IF YOU ARE INDEED SADIE,

THEN WHY ARE YOU DRESSED LIKE KATIE?

OH, BECAUSE THE BEST WAY TO REACH TROUBLED TEENS

IS TO SET A POSITIVE EXAMPLE.

I THOUGHT THAT KATIE WOULD BE MORE WILLING TO LISTEN

IF SHE COULD IDENTIFY WITH ME. UH, MS. MANN,

I... ZIP, ZIP.

I'VE HEARD MORE THAN ENOUGH FROM YOU.

AND, SADIE, I ADMIRE YOUR EFFORTS

TO HELP A TEENAGE NE'ER-DO-WELL.

IT WILL BE ONE MONTH OF DETENTIONS FOR YOU, KATIE.

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY,

IF NOT SOONER.

BUT MS. MANN! CAN'T YOU SEE THAT... KATIE,

IF YOU WANT TO DISCUSS YOUR BEHAVIOURAL ISSUES,

I'M HERE FOR YOU.

BE STRONG, KATIE.

BE STRONG.

WHEN I'M ON MY DATE WITH BEN,

I'LL TELL HIM YOU SAID HI.

[ Mixed chatter/chuckling ]

THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!

HAL, W-W-WHERE'S THE BLUEPRINT

FOR THE THOMPSON- REID ACCOUNT?

[ Clearing of throat ]

HAL!

WELL, IT'S COOL HOW THE GREASE MAKES IT ALL SEE-THROUGH.

WALTER, WHAT'S THE DELAY?

WE NEED... WE NEED THAT

FOR THE PRESENTATION TOMORROW!

[ Sigh ] ALL RIGHT.

MY OFFICE NOW.

[ Awkward chuckle ]

HE WON'T GET FIRED, RIGHT?

[ Yawning ]

[ Opening of door ]

NO! [ Spritzing of spray ]

UH, IT'S ME, SADIE.

OH.

I DID BETTER THAN I THOUGHT.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

KATIE SET ME UP.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

DITTO. KATIE FRAMED US

FOR STINK-BOMBING THE BOYS' BATHROOM.

Margaret: WHICH DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE

BECAUSE IT ALREADY REEKS.

WHY WOULD WE EVEN BOTHER?

I HAVE TO STOP KATIE'S DATE WITH BEN.

YOU GUYS NEED TO HELP WITH AN ELABORATE PLAN

TO BUST ME OUT OF HERE.

AHEM. TAKE A LOOK.

[ Snoring ]

SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE.

[ Slam of door ]

[ ♪♪♪ ]

I TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR HAL.

YEAH, YEAH. HE'S A FUNNY KID.

THAT CHEESE CARVING OF THE MONKEY: CLASSIC.

BUT THE OFFICE HAS BEEN IN AN UPROAR SINCE HE GOT HERE.

I THOUGHT A COUPLE OF DAYS WITH HIS DAD

WOULD TEACH HIM SOME RESPONSIBILITY.

I'M... I'M SORRY.

I UNDERSTAND,

BUT HE'S JEOPARDIZED OUR BIGGEST ACCOUNT.

I HAVE TO MAKE A CHANGE, WALTER.

IT'S NOT HIS FAULT, BIG TIME!

UH, MR. MAYBERRY.

THE PEPPERONI DARTS WERE MY IDEA.

SO WAS FAXING MY HANDS AND PHOTOCOPYING THE COMIC.

YOU CREATED DOOZIE?

I LOVE HIM!

YEAH? WELL, THE "BEST OF" COMES OUT THIS CHRISTMAS.

YEAH, I'M SURE IT'LL BE A GREAT STOCKING STUFFER.

Hal: ANYWAY,

I WAS THE ONE WHO STOLE THE TOILET PAPER

OUT OF THE EXECUTIVE WASHROOM

AND CHANGED THE DARK ROAST TO DECAF. HAL.

PLEASE, JUST LET ME FINISH.

WALTER HAWTHORNE IS A LOYAL MAN.

HE'S A HARD-WORKING MAN, HE'S A KIND MAN.

BUT HE'S NOT JUST THAT.

HE'S A GREAT EMPLOYEE.

BUT NONE OF THAT IS IMPORTANT

BECAUSE MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE,

HE'S AN AMAZING DAD.

AND I LET HIM DOWN.

FOR THAT... I'M REALLY SORRY.

THAT'S QUITE A SPEECH, SON.

BUT IT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

CLEAR OUT YOUR DESK, YOU'RE FIRED.

BUT IT WAS ME WHO DID ALL THAT STUFF!

I'M THE GUY WHO WRECKED EVERYTHING!

I KNOW. I WAS TALKING TO YOU.

[ Scoffing ] I WOULD NEVER FIRE WALTER.

HE'S THE MOST VALUABLE GUY HERE.

HAH!

WELL...

CAN I AT LEAST MAKE ONE LAST STOP IN THE KITCHEN?

YEAH, SURE.

GO AHEAD.

UH... I'LL SEE YOU LATER, DAD.

[ ♪♪♪ ]

[ Closing of door ]

SO YOU BAILED ON DETENTION,

I'VE FINALLY REACHED YOU.

KUDOS.

LOOK, I KNOW THIS IS JUST A GAME FOR YOU

BUT BEN IS MY FRIEND

AND I DON'T WANT HIM TO GET HURT

BECAUSE YOU WANT TO GET BACK AT ME.

IF BEN GETS HURT, IT'S HIS FAULT.

HE'S GOT TO KNOW THAT I WOULD NEVER GO FOR SOMEONE LIKE HIM.

HE'S NOT EVEN A GOODY TWO-SHOES.

HE'S LIKE A GOODY FOUR-SHOES.

IN A WAY IT'S ALMOST TOO BAD

BECAUSE THAT MEANS YOU'LL NEVER GET TO KNOW

THE FINER POINTS OF BEN HARRISON.

"FINER POINTS"?

THAT BEN'S FAVOURITE COLOUR IS GREY

OR THAT HIS FAVOURITE FOOD IS BARBECUE SAUCE.

AND YOU'LL NEVER KNOW THAT EVERY DAY AT 4:15,

BEN LEAVES THE DARKROOM AND GETS AN ICE CREAM SANDWICH.

AND YOUR EXTREMELY LONG AND BORING POINT WOULD BE?

THAT HE'S HEARD EVERYTHING YOU SAID

BECAUSE HE'S STANDING RIGHT BESIDE YOU.

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU!

YOU... NERDBAIT!

Ms. Mann: IS THAT YOU, KATIE,

OUT OF DETENTION?

IT SURE IS!

SHE'S SO BAD. UNLIKE ME

WHO WAS JUST ON HER WAY TO GET

MY... OPPENHEIMER FLASK.

YOU MEAN ERLENMEYER FLASK, KATIE.

SADIE HAWTHORNE WOULD KNOW THAT.

LOOKS LIKE IT'S TIME TO FIND YOU ANOTHER SCHOOL.

BUT...

UGH... IT'S SO HARD TO BELIEVE YOU'RE RELATED.

LET GO OF ME.

UGH!

SORRY I DIDN'T BELIEVE YOU, SADIE.

SHE HAD ME FOOLED.

AND, WELL, YOU SURE WENT PRETTY FAR TO CONVINCE ME.

IT'S WHAT FRIENDS DO.

[ Chuckling ]

IT'S COOL THAT EVERYTHING WORKED OUT

WITH THE THOMPSON- REID ACCOUNT.

I ACTUALLY HAD A BREAKTHROUGH IDEA

WHEN I WAS RE-DOING THE DRAWINGS.

THE PEPPERONI MADE ME THINK OF PUTTING A POOL ON THE ROOF.

I THINK IT'S GOING TO SELL THE PLACE.

SO, DOES THIS MEAN I GET A PIECE OF THE ACTION?

YOU MIGHT GET A PIECE OF THE PIZZA.

IF YOU'RE LUCKY.

ALL RIGHT, KNOCK IT UP HIGH.

YEAH. YEAH. OH. OH.

YOU KNOW, YOU'RE PRETTY IMPORTANT
