Been There, Done That

Sorry yall, I already went to orientation and all I saw was Jennifer. My locker is in the SIXTH GRADE HALLWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The tradgedy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I'm right by Jennifer and Mr. Harmon and my homeroom (Mrs. Green. She sucks). So guess what??? I wrote a play!!! It's for my sister. She a fifth grader, but a bunch of third graders are going to be in it, so it's a youngish reading level. And the title sucks, but whatever. I'll copy and paste it here: (the stuff in parenthesis is supposed to be in italics, but for some reason when I pasted it it wasn't)

Welcome to Dr. Max’s Evil Plot. Dr. Max is an evil professor who has kidnapped Stacey. He plans to strike again at a costume party in downtown New York. It is up to agents Kevin, Audrey and Brooke to save the day.

Scene 1
(Starts in office. Commander Juve is sitting in office chair; agents are around her. Brooke is texting someone, Kevin is asleep, and Audrey is listening attentively)

Commander Juve (CJ): Alright team; in order to catch Dr. Max, you are all going to have to work together. Dr. Max has kidnapped a girl named Stacey Blake. He plans to capture someone else at the 2008 NYC Halloween Party. It is up to you three to save Stacey and everyone else at the party. Move out!

Scene 2
(The three agents are at a colorful party. They are wearing costumes, but underneath they have lots of spy gear)

Brooke: Ugh! My costume is like, so itchy!

Kevin: Mine too!

Audrey: Get over it. We need to find this Dr. Max guy and get out of here before someone gets hurt. Get out your trackers.
(Brooke examines her nails, and Kevin pulls out the wrong device)

Kevin: How do you work this thing? (He fiddles around with it until it makes a loud noise)

Brooke: OMG! You like, made me like, break a nail! (flaps hands and hyperventilates)

Audrey (shaking head): Why did I get stuck with the biggest idiots in the entire company? (to agents) Let’s go. (They wander off)

Scene 3
(Dr. Max, Lola, and Stacey are in Dr. Max’s lair. Stacey is tied up and unconscious and Lola is holding a clipboard)

Dr. Max: Alright, Lola, take this down: (Lola poises pen) “I am Professor Maxwell Jackson. As you may have noticed, I have kidnapped Stacey Blake. If you ever want to see her again, then give me three million dollars by midnight.”

Lola (after finishing writing): Isn’t three thousand dollars kind of a lot of money?

Dr. Max: Three million!

(Stacey starts to stir, then opens her eyes.)

Stacey: This isn’t my house.

Dr. Max (rolling his eyes): Obviously.

Stacey: Who are you? (starts to scratch at something on the floor)

Lola: He’s Professor Maxwell Jackson. He kidnapped you. He wants three thousand dollars.

Dr. Max: Three million!

Lola (ignoring him): When your family gives him three thousand doll-

Dr. Max: Three million!

Lola: Whatever. When he gets three thousand dollars, he’ll let you go.

Stacey (looking up): What?

Scene 4
(The agents are still at the party. They are searching for Dr. Max, who is hiding under a table with Lola and Stacey)

Brooke: Can we like, go outside and get some like, fresh air? The humidity in here is like, ruining my hair.

Audrey: There’s no time! We have to find Dr. Max!
Kevin: Who’s Dr. Max? (Audrey rolls her eyes; Brooke whispers something into Kevin’s ear, and he nods) Oh.

Brooke: I got a text! (she pulls out her cell phone) Commander Juve says that she got a ransom note-

Kevin: What’s a random note?

Brooke (ignoring him): She got a ransom note from Dr. Max saying that we need to give him three thousand dollars by midnight! She says that we need to find him before midnight or it’ll be a disaster and we’ll lose our jobs! (she looks at her watch) We only have thirty minutes to find him!

(The three of them start to look around frantically for Dr. Max. Just then he comes out. Lola is holding a microphone to her mouth)

Lola: Ladies and gentlemen! I am Lola, and this is Dr. Max! We have secured this building so that no one can escape! We have also kidnapped this young girl! (she pulls out Stacey) Give us all of your money-

Audrey: Stop right there!

Kevin: Yeah! We’re members of the BFI!

Audrey (to Kevin): BFI is a garbage company, you idiot! It’s FBI!

(Lola and Dr. Max snigger)

Brooke: Let go of Stacey!

Stacey: What?

Audrey (whispering to Kevin): Get out your net.

(Kevin gets out a net and tries to throw onto Dr. Max. Instead, it ends up on him. Lola runs to grab him and trips on a paper cup. Dr. Max follows and trips on Lola. By then Kevin is out of the net and throws in onto Lola and Dr. Max)

Brooke: Now we have you!

Stacey: Hey! I got a text! And I thought all of my friends forgot about me! (she pulls out her cell phone)

Audrey (shocked): You had a cell phone the whole time and you didn’t even use it?!!!

Stacey: Was I supposed to?

(Just then Commander Juve walks in, looking at the scene before her)

CJ: Good job, team! You did it, and with three minutes to spare! You’ll all be receiving special medals for your bravery! (she pulls three medals from her coat. Audrey, Brooke, and Kevin all line up and she places the medals around their necks. She turns to Lola and Dr. Max) And as for you…

Scene 5
(Dr. Max and Lola are in a jail cell. Stacey, Commander Juve, and the three agents are around them outside the cell)

Dr. Max: I still can’t believe you wrote three thousand dollars on the ransom note instead of three million!

Kevin: And I still don’t know what a random note is!

(Dr. Max and Lola leave the cell; everyone holds hands and bows.)
