Vote for Claire. Claire Fitzroy for class president.

Vote Claire Fitzroy.

Interesting choice.

It has a certain quality to it.

Vote Claire.

Claire Fitzroy for class president.

Can I have one?

What for?

Let's just say for opposition research.

Come on, Egg.

You're just jealous.

What'd you say?

I didn't say anything. Cool it, Egg.

You're just gonna stand there?

Or are you gonna fight back?

Come on, Egg.

Back off, dude!

So I made a list just like you said.

I could be an athlete, But I'm really bad at geometry.

I could be in the Harry Potter Society because Harmony sounds like Hermione.

Or I could be in the debate club like my sister's friend, Ellie.

I don't know, Harm. None of us really seem like you.

I disagree.

See? I'm a natural-born debater.

I actually think you're pretty agreeable.

You're right.

So, what do I do? Just wait for my passion to fall out of the sky?

That's a little dramatic, don't you think?

Drama club.

Here you go.

Don't even say it. Come on. It's literally a sign from the sky.

It could be your back, Yemen.

Can you believe Leo's back?

No, I thought he got expelled in third grade for solving Mrs. Baker's goldfish.

Or was it a hamster? Or was it a betta fish?

Either way, he was definitely expelled.

But maybe there's a statue of limitations for that.

Remind me, what's a statue of limitations?

Don't you watch Criminal Minds? It's like a crime expiration date or

something. It's statute of limitations, and who are you guys talking about?

Leo McCoy.

I am so sick of hearing about this kid.

What's the big deal? He was the coolest kid in third grade.

Every girl had a crush on him.

Then one day he just vanished.

Before we could fall in love.

But now he's back, and talk about a glow-up.

Can we help you?

Morning, ladies. Did you guys get a chance to look at the dance routines

that I sent?

You mean the super dated and corny ones?

Yeah, sorry.

I guess we were too busy watching things from this millennium. The 90s were retro

and cool. My mom said they were number one hits.

Then why don't you dance to them with your mom?

Good one.

Just learn the dance routines before practice today.

For real.

All right, young scholars, in collaboration with the Drama Club, today

we begin Shakespeare's most whimsical work,

A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Who can summarize the basic plot?

Go ahead, Claire.

A Midsummer Night's Dream is about two young couples in a series of

interlocking love triangles, further complicated by strict social standards

and a love potion gone awry.

Great. Okay, let's open up to Act 1, Scene 1.

What's happening here?

Hermia and Lysander are in love, but can't be together because her father

wants her to marry Demetrius. So, they decide to run away, risking the death of

a Fenian law.

Patriarchy was pretty dark back then, though technically it's a comedy.

Huh, well said, Miss Fitzroy.

Okay, Harmony, you read as Hermia.

Walker. Please read as Lysander.

Let's take it from line 18.

How now, my love?

Why is your cheek so pale?

Be like for want of rain, which I could well beteem them from the tempest of my

eyes. The course of true love never did run smooth.

Sorry to interrupt.

Is this English with Mr.

Gia? Giamatta.

And you must be our new student.

Next time, class starts at the bell. You.

Watch it, Egg.

They're an issue, Edward.

No, we're cool.

Is this seat taken?

Please.

Oh, hey.

You're the one in my jacket.

Don't worry.

You're not gonna win anyways.

Can we please continue?

I can't believe it. PK chose the worst photo of me.

Honestly, Claire, it's not that bad.

You just look a little, um... Sick to your stomach.

How could he not run this by me?

I'm gonna give him a piece of my mind. He was just trying to be helpful.

And he's already gotten a hard enough time from Eggie.

Why? What happened?

You didn't hear?

This morning, Eggie got up in PK's face about your flyers and the hot new boy

pushed him hard.

Leo McCoy got in a fight with Eggie? I can't believe he stood up to Eggie like

that. He's a total bad boy.

He's not like that.

How do you know?

Because, well, I actually don't know him that well.

Uh, hey.

I wanted to say thank you for this morning.

No sweat.

If you don't push back, bullies never stop.

But what am I going to do next time when you're not there? You don't need a fairy

godmother. You just need some backbone.

One day before school, I'll teach you how to bench press.

You know, do a few curls.

And a few months from now, that eggy kid will be scared of your shadow.

You really think that I could be strong?

Sure, bud.

Like I said, just roll through before school sometime.

I gotta finish this cube though, so I'll catch you later.

Cool.

I said pike stretch, not butterfly.

Whatever.

Oops, I'm late.

Do you guys want to lose?

That wasn't rhetorical. We obviously don't want to lose. It's just hard

because we really don't like you.

Good one.

Thanks for sugarcoating it.

Well, it's nothing personal.

You're just on the wrong squad.

Exactly. Look, we all may be from different friend groups, but we're all

still Attaway.

Don't you guys want to win?

Sure, but we want to do it our way.

I think I have some ideas that aren't so different from yours.

Okay, what type of ideas?

Like spirit week every week, team breakfast before school, and wear our

uniforms on competition days.

Yawn. Um, what about Friday team pajama day? Or Wednesday wacky Wednesday?

Wait. Wacky Wednesday?

That sounds fun.

Next Wednesday, we'll all go out wacky. Yep.

Okay.

Great.

Oh, it's you again.

McAdams, McCoy.

Too bad. I liked having an extra locker.

I've heard you defended PK.

He was no big. He just needed a hand.

Well, it was pretty brave to me.

Am I interrupting?

Nope. Our lockers are just next to each other.

I'm Leo.

Nice to meet you. I'm Jordan. You're the guy who pushed down Aggie. I better be

careful around you. You have nothing to worry about. I'm not worried.

I'll catch you later, McAdams.

What was that?

It was nothing.

Come on, I'll walk you home.

You all right?

You scared me.

Maybe you shouldn't be lurking in the shadows.

I wasn't lurking. I was just standing.

You could just tell her how you feel.

Be real, Layla. She doesn't even notice me. She has guys falling all over her.

You're a great guy, Walker.

Maybe I should just ask out Katie.

That's what Eggie says anyways.

Who cares what Eggie says?

It's not like he's in charge.

What is that?

And so today, I'm officially announcing my candidacy for student body president.

You shouldn't have to choose between Claire Fitzroy and no one. Elect me, and

I'll have all your favorite snacks in the cafeteria.

And sodas.

And, um, gift cards to the Millwood Galleria.

Vote Eggie. Don't vote for Claire.

Don't do that.

Next week on Chicken Girls. I don't want pity votes. I want to win because I'm

better. Stop talking to me about Claire and get me some votes.

You know, Harmony, you should really consider signing up for the drama club.

I'm totally in.

Where's your costume? Remember, it's Wacky Wednesday.

Oh, no. Must have slipped my mind.
