- New mobile, Ralph? - Yep.

Cool! Gross Class Zero app?

- Yep. - Cool!

- Can I have a go? - Sure.

- Cool! - (tune plays on phone)

So, I said to him, and then he said to her, and then she said to me,

"I do like your new phone,"

and I said, "It's the next one up from the Excellent Excelsius 25000

Free Five Way with extra dongles,"

so she said to him that she wanted one.

(both sigh)

(sobs)

So, when I said,

"You can't have a Excellent Excelsius 25000 Free Five Way,"

she said, "Why not?" and...

Oi, bogey brain.

(shouts) I said, oi, bogey brain!

- (phone trills) - You talking to me?

Not many other bogey brains round here, bogey brain!

Well, maybe one or two.

But you're the bogey brain I'm talking to.

You'll be wanting to add me as a contact, then, won't you?

Henry. Henry!

(groans)

Oh, for heaven's sake! Sit up!

Now, then, are we all sitting comfortably?

ALL: Yes, Miss Battle-Axe.

Then let's begin.

(groans)

(chalk squeaks)

(all snore)

And that... is that.

- (bell rings) - (all cheer)

Class dismissed.

(tune plays on phone)

He thinks I don't know what he's up to, but I do.

He's trying to add me to his contacts.

Did you give him your details, then?

Duh! No!

But I bet he's still trying to add me.

What a bogey brain!

(scoffs)

Gonna get you, Henry.

How cool is that?

It's got an electronic matching device,

which means I can see what's on anyone else's phone, as long as they are...

Hey!

(both grunt)

Henry! Henry, keep still!

- No! - Henry!

Henry, will you keep still?

Don't let him get away, Susan.

Ouch.

What do you have to say, Margaret?

It was Henry's fault, miss.

Of course it was, Margaret.

I want this mess cleared up straightaway.

Detention, Henry.

Yes! Now we know what that slugsnot is up to! He's--

Watching episodes of Gross Class Zero.

He's watching episodes of Gross Class Zero!

Is there an echo in here?

That means...

He's not adding you to his contacts.

Yeah! He's not adding me to his contacts and...

You wanna know why?

Yeah, I do wanna know why.

That's easy. You're not important enough.

- (grunts) - Thank you, Margaret. I'll take that.

Yes, miss.

- And, Margaret? - Yes, Miss Battle-Axe?

Detention, Margaret.

Yes, Miss Battle-Axe.

- (blows a raspberry) - (giggles)

(sighs)

Not you two again. What have you done now?

- Please, miss. - It's not fair, miss.

You'd better come in.

(both grunt)

- So... - (Margaret gasps)

Ladies first, I think.

Yes! He won't add me, Miss Oddbod.

He won't what, Margaret?

Add me to his contacts.

His contacts?

On his phone. He won't add me.

I see. I think.

What do you have to say to that, Henry?

Why would I want to add a bogey brain like her?

You see? Who does he think he is?

Not a bogey brain like you, obviously.

Who are you calling bogey brain, bogey brain?

You may go now, Henry.

That's right. Off you go.

I think I'll be keeping this, though.

Margaret, a word, please.

Margaret, why would you want him to add you to his contacts?

Well, that's obvious, isn't it?

- Is it? - Well, yes.

I mean, I'm the most important person in this school,

and that means everyone should want to add me.

(phone rings)

Uh, thank you, Margaret. You may go now.

You can add me to your contacts, too, if you want to, Miss Oddbod.

Hello? Miss Oddbod...

So, Henry, no more mobile phone, eh?

You think you're such a clever bogey brain.

Well, turns out, I am a clever bogey brain, bogey brain.

Of course, you being such a bogey brain,

won't have a second phone, will you?

- I said.. - I heard what you said!

Well?

Well, what?

Well, have you got a second phone, or not?

Of course I have.

Yeah, sure you have!

Don't forget to bring your second phone in tomorrow, bogey brain.

Why was she talking about a second phone, Henry?

- Search me. - Can I have my phone back, Henry?

Um, can I keep it till tomorrow?

I wanna finish level 42.

OK. I've got another one at home anyway.

Oh, cool.

Hey, bet you're wondering if I've come up with some sort of a plan.

Well, yeah, I have. Come up with some sort of a plan, that is.

We'll just have to see if it works.

Wish me luck.

(all shout)

(snores)

MARGARET: Excuse me!

(chomps)

Whoa!

(sobs)

- Here, slugsnot. This is for you. - What is it?

It's all my details. So now you can add me, toad breath.

On your second phone, snot brain.

Or don't you have one?

What? Oh, yeah, I've got one.

Oi! You forgot something!

Oh. Right.

- Well, aren't you gonna add me, then? - Yeah, yeah.

- What was all that about? - Oh, you know, bogey brains.

Yeah, bogey brains. Wanna go?

I'm waiting.

Alright, alright, keep your hair on.

(tune plays on phone)

Ah! Is that what I think it is?

Let me see that phone!

Be right back!

(all cheer)

MISS ODDBOD: Enter.

Uh, Miss Oddbod, I've got something to tell you.

Oh, I suppose you'd better come in, then.

Gotcha, Henry! You don't have a second phone, do you?

- No. I haven't even got a first phone. - You what?

- Here's your phone, Ralph. - Cheers, Henry.

Eh? But... What...? How?

I'll give you a clue, snot for brains.

Peter's Number Gnomes phone has been confiscated.

What? You mean...?

Yep. Peter's Number Gnomes phone has been confiscated.

And Ralph's hasn't.

We're gonna have to figure out how to get Peter's phone back. Sometime soon.

No!

Tonight we bring you more news of more things that are wrong with the world.

For goodness' sake, can't they get it right?

Well, dear, it's not easy you know, running a country.

Rubbish! I could do it standing on my head!

Well, dear...

Don't you "well, dear" me. I could do it, and that's that!

- Yes, dear. - Don't you "yes, dear" me, either.

So that's why nothing at all can be done about it.

That's enough of that.

Where are you going, dear?

To get myself elected.

Elected as what?

President of the Free World, of course.

(yells) No!

Did you know that there has never ever

been a female President of the Free World?

Depending on when you're watching this that might not still be true.

Dear Margaret Millicent Maudita Smythe.

Never forget how special you are.

You can do it.

Signed me. Oh.

Next up, I need a campaign manager.

(phone trills)

Oh! An email from lil' old me. How nice!

(sobs)

You won, Henry.

Seats, everyone.

Please, miss.

Yes, Margaret?

I'm going to get myself elected

as President of the Free World, Miss Battle-Axe.

Are you now, Margaret?

I suppose you think it's a bad idea, Miss Battle-Axe.

On the contrary. I think it's a very good idea.

Uh, you're not an American citizen but we'll pass over that.

I can speak American, miss. Y'all.

MISS BATTLE-AXE: Thank you. That won't be necessary, Margaret.

Yes, miss.

So, I am going to nominate you.

Ooh, thank you, miss!

MISS BATTLE-AXE: You're going to need a good campaign manager.

Any volunteers?

Come on! This is your chance to make history.

Henry?

Yes, miss. I'll be Moody...

Uh, I mean, Margaret's campaign manager.

Well, I can truly say this moment will go down in history!

Well, then... let's get started.

Repeat after me.

Margaret for President.

ALL: Margaret for President!

Margaret for President!

Margaret for President!

Margaret for President! Margaret for President!

Margaret for President! Margaret for President!

(knock on door)

- Henry. - Peter.

Is it true you're going to be Margaret's campaign manager?

- Yes. - But why, Henry?

Think about it, worm.

She gets elected as President of the Free World,

she's out of my life forever.

- Yep, that makes sense. - Good.

- Can I make the campaign video, Henry? - Don't see why not, worm.

Yes!

- Night, Henry. - Night, worm.

(tablet beeps)

(clicks)

(beeps)

- (indistinct chatter) - (yawns)

(indistinct chatter)

Time to get to work.

(indistinct chatter)

About time, beetle bonce!

What are they all doing here?

Working for me.

But what are they all doing exactly?

How should I know?

- Greetings, Lord High Majesty. - Hey, Brian.

I've done some research on what getting elected

as President of the Free World means.

Shoot.

- It requires personal sacrifices. - Like what?

- Being nice to people. - Check.

- Making speeches. - Check.

- Kissing babies. - Ugh, check.

Then there's the campaign funds.

What's one of them?

Uh, money. You need lots of it.

MARGARET: My dad. He'll take care of it.

We'll need endorsements from powerful people.

- More powerful than me? - AL: I'll take care of it.

- Who you gonna ask, Al? - I was gonna ask you that, Henry.

You could try Miss Battle-Axe, I suppose.

Cool! I'll do that, Henry.

I'm ready for my close-up now.

One last question, Margaret.

- What's that? - Do you have a special talent?

- A special talent? - Yes. Like...

Like shouting, or being a beetle bonce. Or playing air guitar.

You're not taking this seriously, are you, Henry?

I have to say I am, for once, in agreement with Margaret

on this matter, Henry.

'Course I'm taking this seriously.

More seriously than you'll ever know.

What's that meant to mean?

Um, it means that you're ready for your close up now, milady.

Buck up your ideas, Mr Campaign Manager, otherwise you're out!

We still need a winning slogan.

Why don't you try to think of one, Henry?

OK. I will.

Henry!

Coming!

- Well? - Well, what?

What's my slogan, dingbat?

It's not about what you have...

Can we take that again, Margaret? We weren't rolling.

(sighs)

It's not about what you have, it's about what you need.

And you need me!

No, it's not!

No, it's not what?!

It's not your slogan!

Well, what is my slogan, Mr Smarty-pants Campaign Manager,

who's just about to lose his job?

It's love what you do, and do what you love.

- No, it's not. - Yes, it is.

No, it's not.

- HENRY: Is! - Isn't!

- Is. - Isn't.

- Is, is, is! - Isn't, isn't, isn't!

Welcome to the Best Boys News, and a world exclusive.

We bring you Ashton Primary's

one and only presidential candidate, Margaret!

(crowd cheers)

So, Margaret, why should we vote for you?

Because I'm a girl.

You're not the only girl around here.

Tell us about your policies, Margaret.

Oh, I've got loads.

Equal time on the climbing frame, reform of the detention rules,

girls first in the canteen.

(clears throat) What about the Free World?

Oh, they can wait.

Do you think you can win, Margaret?

The people love me, Peter.

(crowd cheers)

Government should listen to the voice of the people!

I am the voice of the people!

You wish!

CROWD: Margaret, Margaret, Margaret! In, in, in!

Margaret, Margaret, Margaret! In, in, in!

This lady's not for turning.

In, in, in! Margaret, Margaret, Margaret!

And cut!

(indistinct chatter)

Whoa! The exit polls are looking good!

The people want her to win.

And soon she'll be out of my life forever!

We have a result.

I want to thank everyone who participated in this election.

You made your voice heard, and you made a difference.

And as President of the Boodle Poodle fan club...

(crowd gasps)

The Boodle Poodle fan club?

MARGARET: ...I shall serve the cause faithfully and truthfully.

But what about the Free World, Margaret?

There's plenty of time to save the Free World when I'm a grown-up.

My people need me here,

so here is where I am staying.

(crowd cheers)

No!
