Friends Forever/Transcript

(The friends are in the garage.)

Tom: Guys, I'd say our first annual Indoor Fun Day was a huge success.

Hank: It sure was. I'm glad the Landlord sprayed all those chemicals on the lawn so we couldn't go outside.

(Scene cuts to the front lawn. A fly falls after smelling the lawn.)

Tom: Well, look at this. Angela's even set up an arts and crafts table.

Angela: I made friendship bracelets. See, the different threads represent the, um... different colors of friendship!

Tom: Angela, I don't ever exaggerate. But these are mind-blowing.

Angela: Oh, well, do you want one?

Tom: Do I? Ha! I mean, you know, if you happen to have a-an extra one, yeah, sure, I'll take it off your hands.

(Tom puts on the bracelet. The bracelet glows.)

Bracelet: Awesome!

Angela: There! Now we have matching friendship bracelets so everyone will know we're friends! But remember, you can't remove it. You have to let the bracelet fall off on its own.

Tom: What happens if I take it off?

Angela: I think technically, that means we won't be friends anymore.

Tom: (gasps) No!

Angela: Anyways, I've got to get home. Hey, do you think the lawn is safe yet?

Ben: Hm, maybe if you hold your breath?

Angela: (inhales deeply) Okay, thanks, bye!

(Angela opens the door and runs out, still holding her breath.)

Angela: Not breathing, not breathing!

(scene cuts to Tom's bracelet glowing)

Tom: I'll never take you off.

(Ginger sneaks behind Tom and pushes him. Tom falls on a skateboard, which goes flying.)

Ginger: Got you!

(The skateboard hits Tom.)

Tom: Ow, Ginger!

Ginger: Man, you weren't even trying to dodge me.

(theme song plays)

(Hank is chasing Ginger.)

Ginger: Oh, you missed me!

Hank: Ginger, slow down or I won't be able to catch you.

Ginger: That's the point. I'm the most excellent player of every indoor game there is! From indoor tag to indoor catch-

(Hank tackles Ginger)

Hank: Yah! Tag, you're it.

Ginger: No fair! I was giving a speech. That doesn't count.

(scene cuts to Ben)

Ben: Indoor Fun Day will now conclude with a traditional game of hide and seek. Though it's not exactly a tradition since it's the first Indoor Fun Day. But I'll allow it.

Hank: Gotta start somewhere, right?

Ginger: You guys are going down!

Ben: Now I've developed a completely fair method to decide who's it. All we need is a spoon, fishing line, a number of hooks-

Ginger: Last one to touch his nose is it!

(All except Tom touches their noses.)

Tom: Last one what?

Ginger: Tom's it! Everybody scatter!

Tom: Hold on, I wasn't ready! Oh, all right.

Hank: See ya, wouldn't want to be ya!

Ben: (laughs) We're outta here!

(scene cuts to Tom counting)

Tom: One, Mississippi, two, Mississippi, three, Albuquerque...

(Tom stops counting and searches a stack of boxes.)

Tom: Ben, always hiding by your work! (lifts top box, revealing only a teddy bear.) Oh, uh, alright.

(Tom walks to the living room.)

Tom: If I was Hank, where would I be? (looks at couch cushions) Hank, I'm onto you! (swipes away cushions, revealing nothing) Hm, so no one's decided to hide in the most obvious places. Well, I like a challenge. (sticks his hand into the couch) Alright guys, come out, come out, wherever you a-

(Tom's bracelet gets stuck in the couch springs. Tom tries pulling, but to no avail.)

Tom: Uh, oh, this is not good. Guys, uh, time out, real quick, okay? I need some help here!

(scene cuts to Hank in the bathroom)

Tom: Hey! I'm stuck!

Hank: Oh, come on, Tom, I'm not going to fall for the oldest trick in the book.

Tom: I know this seems like the oldest trick in the book, but my arm is actually stuck in the couch!

Hank: Do you really need help? Or when you said this wasn't a trick, was it a trick?

Tom: No, it's not a trick!

Hank: Okay, but what about a double trick?

Tom: And it's not a double trick that I said it wasn't a trick.

Hank: Alright, I'm coming out to help, but this doesn't count as you finding me!

(Hank tries to open the bathroom door, but the doorknob breaks off.)

Hank: Uh, oh.

Tom: Did you say uh-oh?

Hank: I'm stuck in the bathroom! Just like the last time I was stuck in the bathroom, remember that? Hey, can you come in and get me?

Tom: No, Hank, I'm stuck too, remember? Ben!

Hank: Ben!

(scene cuts to Ben in cardboard box)

Tom: Ben, where are you?

Hank: Ben!

Ben: No- this is the perfect place- fine.

Tom: Hey, that was you. Good hiding.

Ben: Yes. Fortunately, you rarely give things a closer look.

Tom: Well, maybe not so fortunately, because me and Hank are both stuck.

Ben: Hank, where were you even planning on hiding in there?

Hank: Not sure, but hide and seek makes me nervous, and when I'm nervous I have to go.

(Ben sighs, then picks up the doorknob and tries to jam the knob back in.)

Ben: Ngh, this is really jammed! I don't know how you pulled the doorknob off so easily.

Hank: It's like I suddenly had super strength. Stand back, I'm going to try something.

(Ben stands back. Hank tries to run into the door to open it.)

Hank: Never mind.

Ben: Hmm, some internal piece must have worn down. No worry, I'll just get a spare doorknob from spare doorknob storage.

(Ben walks to the storage room.)

Ben: Let's see, the Polished Elegance, the Emerald Turner, ah, there we go. (takes out a box of doorknobs, takes one knob out) A good old bathroom spare.

(Ben pushes the box back into the shelf, but this causes the door to close.)

Tom: Wait- don't let the door- (the door closes) close.

Ben: Uh-oh. Tom, why isn't there a handle on the inside of the storage room?

Tom: I took it off.

Ben: And why did you take it off?

Tom: Because I trapped that thing in there that one time.

Ben: What thing?

Tom: Don't worry, it probably went away, but yeah, you can't open the storage room from the inside.

Ben: Why didn't you tell me that before I got locked inside here?

Tom: Okay, well, nobody panic. Ginger's still hiding somewhere around here. He can help us. Ginger!

All: Ginger!

(Ginger is hiding in a trunk.)

Ginger: Sounds like Tom found everyone else, but they still can't find me. (laughs) This is going to take a while. (puts on headphones)

Tom: So Ginger's not answering, and struggling just gets the friendship bracelet more stuck. Maybe Hank is having more luck than I am.

Hank: Tom, my head is stuck in the sink!

Tom: I mean, maybe, Ben is having more luck than I am.

(shows Ben in storage room with an invention)

Ben: I call this new invention the Emergency Door Opener 5000, wait, 9000, no, that's too much. 5000 is better. Anyway, my troubles are about to be-

(Ben activates the invention, only to be electrocuted. A door of bars appears. Ben sighs.)

(Tom is still stuck in the couch. He spots a pizza.)

Tom: You don't need to eat that pizza. You don't need to eat that pizza. (Tom starts reaching towards the pizza, but can't reach.) Eat the pizza, eat the pizza, eat the pizza, eat the pizza, eat the pizza!

(One of the slices goes flying and lands on Tom's head. Tom eats it hungrily.)

(A glowing Angela appears.)

Angela: Uh, Tom, what are you doing?

Tom: Just, uh, cleaning the table. It sure was messy. (laughs) Tables...

Angela: Oh, yeah, don't get me started on that.

Tom: Man, Angela, I'm so glad you're here. But wait, wait, wait, wa- You went home a while ago, so how are you back here?

Tom: Angela... You're floating.

Angela: Yeah, do you like it?

Tom: (Gasps) The chemicals on the lawn turned you into a ghost! Or a superhero. Wait, are you a ghost or a superhero?

Angela: Oh, neither. I'm actually a hallucination. Your brain created me to deal with the loneliness of being stuck.

Tom: So, you're not the real Angela?

Angela: If I were the real Angela would I say this? My favourite things in the world are Tom, Tom, Tom, singing and dancing and Tom. In that order.

Tom: Wow, you are a really cool hallucination.

Angela: So you're really stuck, huh?

Tom: It's the friendship bracelet. Alright, It's caught on a spring. And I don't know what to do. And because, on one hand, I don't wanna be stuck here forever. But if I cut it, it means that we aren't friends anymore. *Tries to get unstuck*

(Angela appears behind Tom)

Tom: Ahh!

Angela: But how good a friend are you if you can't even answer my calls, or help Ben and Hank?

Tom: Not a very good friend.

Angela: A friendship bracelet is just a bunch of string. If it keeps you from helping friends who need you, then you should cut it.

Tom: (Sighs and tries to get free) Wait, how do you know I'm making the right decision, huh? I mean, you're just a hallucination.

Angela: I know, but I'm yooour hallucinaaation. *Disapears*

Tom: But hallucinangela come back.

(Scene cuts to Ginger hiding in a chest and listening to music.)

Ginger: ♪ ''His name is Ginger! Baw ba bah baaoowwww! Like an invisible ninja! ♪''

(Scene cuts to the clock then Tom)

Tom: Okay, my brain made up that hallucination and my brain has never let me astray before. Right brain - right. Left brain - wrong. Or, maybe I don't wanna rush things. Maybe if i wait long enough, maybe the friendship brace will come off on it's own. huh?

Hank: Tom, help! My head is caught in the sink and I can't turn the water off!

Tom: Uhh. Hank! Why did you even turn the water on?

Hank: I was thirsty. Sorry-*Blub*-the sink-*blub*-is filling-*blub*-faster than i can drink-*blub*-the water.

Ben: Tom! get me out of here so I can get hank out of there.

Tom: Alright, guys. Hang in there! I'm on my way. *Cuts bracelet*

Ben: Carry the tenth to the twelfth power and this proves that this is one-hundred percent Tom's fault.

Tom: What did you say?

Ben: Nevermind! Take this and go free Hank!

Tom: Yeah, right.

* Tom runs to the bathroom and opens door. Tom shuts off the water.*

Tom: I'm here, buddy.

Hank: Thanks Tom... Uh!

Tom: What were you thinking?

Hank: Can I explain later? This water is going right through me.

I'll finish this transcript tomorrow
