Where's Angela?/Transcript

(A montage is shown of the friends searching the town for Angela. They start in the forest.)

Tom: Angela, where are you?

Ben: Angela!

Ginger: Angela!

(The friends search Angela's apartment.)

Ben: Where are you?

(The friends run past the garage.)

Hank: Angela.

(Tom asks a mailman for information about Angela's whereabouts.)

Tom: Have you seen Angela?

(The mailman shakes his head.)

(The friends search the park, then the desert.)

Tom: Angela!

(They search the diner.)

Tom: She has to be here!

(The friends search the forest again, but do not find Angela. Tom falls on his knees, defeated.)

Tom: (screams) Angela!

(Tom's scream echoes through the forest.)

(Theme song plays)

(Scene cuts back to the garage. Several photos of Angela and red strings are seen on the walls.)

Tom: Okay, people! I want the status of Operation: Find Our Missing Friend Angela, and I want it yesterday!

(Hank is caught in red strings in the bathroom.)

Hank: I made a list of every concert hall within 50 miles. If Angela performs at any of them, I'll hear about it.

Tom: Oh, that's great. As long as she doesn't get on a bus. Make it a thousand miles! No, 10,000!

Hank: Gotcha.

Ginger: Tom, I made fake online profiles for a bunch of people Angela would want to meet. Now we just sit back and wait for her to take the bait.

Tom: Nice idea, but these friends aren't friendly enough. Make these friends friendlier!

(Ben places a tray of ice pops on the table.)

Tom: Huh? How is this helping?!

Ben: Well, as you know, I am currently banned from using tech.

Hank: Right, because the mysterious agency blamed Ben for the Zapper invasion and in a stunning twist, the agent in charge of keeping Ben down was Ben's girlfriend, Xenon.

(A hand-drawn flashback is shown.)

Ben: Seriously, who are you talking to?

Hank:  Oh, just reminding myself what happened.

Ben: Anyway, all of that severely limits my ability to help. So I made popsicles to keep our energy up.

(Ben passes an ice pop to Tom.)

Tom: Ugh!

(Tom throws the ice pop away. It hits Jeremy, who was on the couch, on the head.)

Jeremy:Watch it! I didn't cut a deal to save you all and move into your garage, just to get hit with ice! (licks ice pop)

Tom:Everyone, top talking about what happened before! (turns to Ben) I need your help, Ben. You were the best. So if Xenon is evil now, we'll just have to do go around her.

Ben: What did you have in mind?

(Scene cuts to Tom at the park at night.)

Ben: Alright, I'm here in the park after sundown and I made sure I wasn't followed. Why all the cloak-and-dagger stuff, Tom?

(Tom opens the suitcase he is holding to reveal a typewriter.)

Ben: What?!

Tom:Shh, I got it from an old lady. If you use it, the agency will think your name is Edna, and you're going online to write a scented candle review.

Ben: (closes suitcase) We can get in serious trouble for this. No one else can know we...

(A silhouette appears. Tom and Ben screams. The silhouette reveals to be of Ginger.)

Ginger: Hi, Tom! Hi, Ben!

Tom: (sighs in relief) You should be at the garage.

Ginger: Yeah, but I have a good sense of when sneaky stuff is happening and I wanted a piece of the action.

Tom: Fine, but this stays between the three of us. Got it?

(Ginger giggles and nods.)

(Hank appears from behind. Tom and Ben scream.)

Hank: So does that mean I should go, or stay, or what?

Ben: (opens typewriter) Everybody just keep quiet. I'm about to find Angela. Oh, how I've missed my fingers on a keyboard. Now all I have to do is access the GPS system to...

(Ben hits a key on the keyboard, only for the typewriter to detect Ben.)

Computer: Ben detected! Ben detected! Ben detected!

(The friends scream.)

(Several lights are seen. A helicopter appears. Xenon jumps out.)

Xenon: (presses button on glasses) Stop in the name of the agency!

Tom: Run!

(The friends run away from Xenon. Xenon chases them on a sidewalk.)

(Ginger throws objects in Xenon's way to slow her down, but Xenon dodges the objects.)

(The friends jump on a skateboard. Xenon follows them by parkouring on the side of a building.)

(The friends continue being chased onto the street, being nearly hit by several cars.)

(Ginger holds onto a street sign, causing the friends to swing into the air and land on a truck.)

(Xenon activates her glasses. They are revealed to be rocket glasses, which allows Xenon to fly in the air. She gets on the garbage truck.)

Xenon: Ben, you're a super genius. Why can't you understand one simple rule? Don't use tech!

Ben: I understand the rule. I'm ignoring it, because I need to find Angela! Remember when we used to tech to solve problems? Together?

Xenon: (takes away computer) You can't use this. Last time you had a computer you almost broke the world!

Tom: Okay, since he almost broke the world, you should almost stop us from finding our friend, right?

(Xenon breaks the computer into two.)

Ben: That belongs to Edna! How will she review her candles now?

Xenon: (throws computer away) Well, I guess Edna's another casualty of you being reckless! And now, since you can't be trusted not to sneak around, I have to give you this.

(Xenon puts a bracelet onto Ben's wrist.)

Ben: What is this thing?

Xenon: This thing is a bracelet that will zap you if you try to use tech.

Ben: No! You can't do this to me!

Xenon: You did it to yourself.

Xenon: Goodbye, boys. I have to go to back to the only people who can be trusted: a secret organization with shadowy goals and unlimited power.

(Xenon flies away with her rocket glasses.)

Hank: Wow, she's really changed. This is why Hank flies solo.

Ginger: Tom, hear me out. We should join the Agency. They can do anything and they give you rocket glasses!

Tom: Actually, that is a good point. Follow that nerd!

(The friends follow Xenon into an alleyway. They hide in garbage cans and watch Xenon enter a code to a security door.)

Tom: (reads code) 1-1-1-1.

(Ben removes a piece of garbage off his face.)

Ben: Ew!

(Hank finds a cupcake in the trash can.)

Hank: Ooh! (eats cupcake)

Ginger: Ugh, Hank!

(Tom and Ben go to enter the code. Ben tries to enter the code, but is shocked and falls over. Tom enters the code.)

(The friends enter a library.)

Hank: She's not here. Unless, she turned invisible! Can she do that?

Tom: No, this can't be another dead end!

Ginger: Hold on, Tom. The spy shows I watch, even though my parents told me not to, say there's always a secret entrance!

(Ginger takes out a book from a bookshelf, takes out a book and puts it upside down.)

Tom: Stop messing around, Ginger! Maybe, we missed something outside.

(Ginger puts the book back into the bookshelf. The bookshelf moves to reveal a secret passage.)

(The passage leads to a hallway.)

Ben: This is either a really big bathroom, or it's the agency.

(Hank opens one of the doors. He finds a giant eyeball and he closes the door screaming.)

(Ben opens another door. This door leads to a vast space.)

Ben: No, nothing important here. (echoes)

* Ben closes the door*

(The lights flicker and stop working. Ben continues to step forward, but bumps into Xenon.)

(When the lights turn on again, Ben finds Xenon and screams.)

Xenon: Looks who's still sneaking around. Do you need a second bracelet?

Ben: No! I was-, we were- help, Tom.

Tom: Uh, excellent work, Agent Xenon, you found the intruders. (shakes Xenon's hand) We're actually double-secret-triple agents. We were testing you, right?

Ginger: Right! We totally belong here and deserve rocket glasses!

Xenon: (nods) M-hm, Come with me. I've got just the place for you.

(The friends enter a room with a red door. Xenon closes the door.)

Ben: Look, before you disintegrate us, I just want to say that I understand how exciting it must be to work in a place like this. I don't blame you!

Xenon: (walks towards Ben) Good to hear, Ben.

(Xenon removes her black glasses to reveal another pair of pink glasses underneath.)

Xenon: 'Cause I'd be super sad if you all hated me right now. I'm so relieved you got my signal to follow me.

Ginger: What?

Ben: Signal?

Xenon: When I said you couldn't use a laptop to find Angela, but implied I had another way to do it. You picked up on all my clues, right?

(A series of photos are seen of past locations with hidden arrows on them.)

Tom: Oh, yeah, yeah, we saw that. Why couldn't you just tell us that you were going to help?

Ginger: Obviously, because the agency is always watching, Tom.

Xenon: Well, this guy gets it.

Ben: Xenon! This is fantastic! (runs towards Xenon) You've been on our side the whole time!

(Ben notices he is holding Xenon's hands. He backs away uncomfortably.)

Ben: I admit, I started to doubt you with that whole bracelet thing.

Xenon: I had to convince the agency I was against you! Now, we have to find Angela!

(Xenon sets up a machine.)

Xenon: And there's a machine that can do it, (presses numerous screens) the Privacy Destroyer!

(The machine activates, revealing a large machine with a chair.)

Ginger: Oooh!

(A light reveals the seat.)

Ben: Eh, fairly impressive.

Hank: (giggles) With a name like the "Privacy Destroyer" it almost sounds like a bad thing. But I guess the agency knows best.

Xenon: The machine will open a portal to wherever Angela is. You go through it. I'll stay back and make sure no one finds out what we're doing.

Ben: Got it!

* Ben runs to The Privacy Destroyer*

Ben: Now it's time for Science Ben to get back in the science saddle. (runs towards machine)

Xenon: Ben, wait! You can't touch any-

(Ben touches the machine and gets electrocuted.)

Alarm: Ben detected! Ben detected! Ben detected! Ben detected!

Ginger: You nincompoop! You can't use tech!

(Rumbling is heard.)

Xenon: Agents are on their way. Cancel the mission! (groans) I'm gonna lose kitchen privileges over this!

(Tom gets on the machine and sits in the seat.)

Tom: No one is losing anything! We're finding something!

(A helmet appears on Tom.)

Tom: I'm gonna find Angela!

(Tom searches for Angela in the machine. He eventually finds her.)

Computer: Angela found. Angela found. Angela found.

(A portal opens. The friends cheer, but Angela is heard screaming from the other side.)

Tom: She's in trouble! I have to help! (runs into portal)

Ginger: Tom! (runs towards portal)

Hank: (tries to stop Ginger) No, Ginger! It's too dangerous for a kid!

Ginger: That's never stopped me before! (runs into portal)

Hank: (groans) Geronimo!

(Ben tries to enter, but is stopped by the bracelet.)

(The friends land into a blocky dimension. Angela is heard screaming.)

Tom: Angela! (runs to Angela) Hold on! I'm coming!

(Tom runs in front of Angela.)

Tom: Don't worry, Angela! I'm here to protect you!

Angela: (pushes Tom) Stop it! What are you doing?

Ginger: We're saving you! Don't you know you need to be saved?

(A large crowd of Zappers are in the background.)

Angela: (groans) Ignore these fans, everyone. We've got a song to finish. (sings)

This is my screaming song.

If you're feeling frustrated you might wanna scream along.

(screams)

Tom: What happened to Angela?

(Credits roll)
