Vote for Tom!/Transcript

(Ginger is shown in the bathroom.)

Ginger: Previously, Angela got a scooter and she wasn't gonna let me ride it, but I was determined to find a way!

Hank: Ginger, you can't just say what happened to you!

Ginger: I know! The CEO started running for mayor and threatened to shut down the garage, so Tom had to run for mayor too in order- Back to the important stuff! Eventually I got to ride Angela's scooter! Go Ginger!

(Intro.)

Tom: (rips poster off the wall, sighing)

Angela: Hey! (puts it back on) What are you doing?

Tom: I give up. I can't beat the CEO. If I put up a poster, he puts up a laser billboard. If I find a baby, he's already kissed it, burped it and sung it a lullaby the entire time!

Hank: So you're packing up the garage to make him think we moved to the center of the earth!

Tom: No, I'm packing up for when he becomes mayor and kicks us out of here.

Angela: Come on, don't be so dramatic!

CEO: (on TV) Oh I'm glad Tom's running against me! That way when I beat him, destroying his company will be even more fun! (laugh)

Angela: Oh! (switches channels)

CEO: (on TV) I'd say my greatest weakness is that I... have no weaknesses!

Angela: (switches channels)

CEO: (on TV) Wow, I'm on so many channels!

Angela: Ugh!

Ginger: Sound like it's time to start playing dirty!

Angela: No! We cannot sink to the CEO's level!

Ginger: You're absolutely right! (whispering to Tom) My class voted me line-leader three weeks in a row, I can make things happen. Call me!

(Ben walks into the room with a huge TV.)

Ben: Hold on to your socks everyone, I'm about to knock those socks off with a secret strategy to make Tom... mayor! I've isolated the four secret elements that guarantee a win. Hard work, charm, big ideas, and honesty! Have more of these than your opponent and you can beat anyone.

Tom: Yea! I can show everyone that I am a hard worker... right after someone unpacks these boxes.

Ginger and Angela: (unhappy)

(Scene cuts to a nearby park. Someone is leafblowing.)

Tom: Excuse me, sir! I see you're doing some hard work, and as a candidate for mayor, I'd like to help you.

(Tom gets ready for his tricks.)

Tom: Ha! Hoo! Cha! Ha-ya! (...) Aha!

Audience: (clapping)

(CEO is flying nearby with a jetpack.)

CEO: CEO in the house, make way!

Tom: No, my piles!

CEO: Oh, did I blow them away? Whoooops! These jetpacks will do that sometimes.

Angela: Hey! Tom was showing everyone what a hard worker he is, and he has a secret system now to beat you in this election!

CEO: Look at that, uhh...

Angela: There are four categories in this secret system and the first one is hard work (Tom: Nononono!) and then- U-Uh I'm not telling you what they are because they're secrets!

CEO: Hard work? (laugh) Nobody cares about hard work, right?

Audience: Boo!

CEO: Now hold on, I-I was kidding! I'm the best at hard work, watch this! I'll just pull this weed... out of the ground... gotta warm up... (tries to do it but gets slammed to the ground)

Audience: (laughing)

Ben: He couldn't even do it! Remember when Tom made all those nice, neat piles?

CEO: No fair! I normally pay people to de-weed my earth!

("Hard work" on Ben's tablet turns green and Tom's face is put over it.)

Ben: Well you got one! Next up: charm!

(Scene cuts to a sad man walking on the streets, near Jerry's.)

Tom: Hey, citizen! Nice hat you got there!

Citizen: Yea!

("Charm" on Ben's tablet turns green and Tom's face is put over it.)

Ben and Angela: (cheering)

(Scene cuts to Tom, Ben and Angela, walking by another place in the streets.)

Tom: This next category is easy! Nobody has more big ideas than me!

(Tom gets a call from Hank.)

Hank: Hey, Tom? Did you hire a plumber that looks like the CEO with a fake moustache to come over and take pictures of Ben's secret strategy?

Tom: What? No- no!

Hank: Okay so, the CEO might now know your secret strategy. But he fixed the toilet. Flushes like a dream! (flushing noises)

Tom: Ugh! Hey guys uh, we may have a problem...

(CEO is seen flying with a jetpack again.)

CEO: Jetpack ahoy, make way, make way, gather around citizens! I've got some big ideas to share with you!

Audience: (doesn't listen)

CEO: I said gather around!

Audience: (gathers)

CEO: When people would say there's no room for more water slides, I'd say there's plenty of room! Where? Underground!

("Big ideas" on Ben's tablet turns red and the CEO's face is put over it.)

Tom: Oh no...

(Scene cuts to the garage.)

Ben: That lout stole my secret strategy!

Tom: It's okay, we can still win... honesty!

Angela: Yea, you're way more honest than the CEO! Everyone knows that.

CEO: (on TV) Tom. Is he really honest? Is his business partner Ben an inventor or a mad scientist?

Ben: Hey, I'm very rigolous about my scientific ethics!

CEO: (on TV) His girlfriend Angela wants to be a famous singer. But here sje is riding on a scooter! Are you a singer or a scooter rider?

Angela: Ugh! I'm both! I can be both!

CEO: (on TV) Hank and Ginger. They've sure spent a lot of time with Tom. What are they hiding?

Hank: (gasp) What am I hiding?

CEO: (on TV) Tom. I just don't trust him. Do you?

Angela: Oh, this is such an obvious dirty trick, there's no way it's gonna work!

Ben: Uh, it worked.

("Honesty" on Ben's tablet turns red and the CEO's face is put over it.)

Angela: What!?

Ben: Looks like the CEO is gonna win after all.

Hank: Not neccessarily. It just means it's all gonna come down to the big night!

MC: It's all gonna come down to the big night! It's the live on TV Mayor Factor competition! Tune in, it's your epic duty!

Hank: Yes TV, that's exactly what I was talking about!

Tom: The CEO won't get away with this.

(Scene cuts to a park Tom is walking in. It is night.)

* Ginger reveals himself from the side of a statue.*

Ginger: So, you finally decided to come to me!

Tom: I have no choice! The CEO, he's a cheater! But I'm starting to think that I should cheat too! You know about dirty tricks right?

Ginger: Nooo, I absolutely do not.

Tom: I have to win the election. So even if you have to, sabotage him, or play dirty, or-

Ginger: Op-op-op, say no more. This meeting never happened.

* Ginger backs away into the fog*

(Scene cuts to the Auditorium)

* Crowd Cheers*

MC: Democracy, y'all! Time to find out who's got the mayor factor!

* Bell dings 2x*

Mc: I'm so excited it makes me wanna move!

Angela: Tom, no matter what happens tonight, I want you to know that-

Tom: Don't worry, I'll get this guy.

Angela: That's what I was not gonna say!

Tom: Oh.

Angela: Wait. Aren't you planning a dirty trick, are you?

Tom: No!

Angela: Hmm...

MC: G-g-g-give it up for your candidates!

* Crowd Roars*

CEO: Yes yes, Thank you, Thank you. (Speaks to Tom) I can't believe you are still trying to beat me.

Tom: I've got a few tricks up my sleeves.

MC: Tonight, you will pick the mayor, by texting in your vote! Now, as you can see, the CEO has more support than Tom. But can he keep it? Does he have the... Mayor Factor?

MC and the crowd: Mayor Factor! Mayor Factor!

MC: Challenge number one. As mayor, you'll have to juggle lots of problems. So let's see how well you can juggle!

* Bell Dings*

Tom: Huh, Huh, all right! Ha-ha, yeah!

Hank: Ahhh, democracy.

* Ginger chuckles and rolls marbles so the CEO slips on them*

CEO: Argh! Oh!

Ginger: Yes!

MC: Fumble! Not very mayor-ly.

* Tom gains 2 more votes*

MC: Challenge Number Two. The mayor is the top of the town! So let's see who could be the first to get to the top of this wall!

Tom: Okay, Let's do this.

* Ginger is on the light truss holding scissors. Ginger laughs and cuts the rope of the CEO. The CEO falls.*

CEO: Argh!

* Tom presses the button at the top, a bell dings.*

MC: Oh! Crash and burn, CEO!

* Tom gains another vote.*

MC: Challenge number three.

Tom: Ha-ha.

MC: Whoever becomes mayor has to balance the town budget. So let's see who can grab more cash in the Money Monsoon!

* Ginger adds marbles to the hose that connects to the CEO's Money Monsoon.*

CEO: What the- Oh! Ow! Oh! What? This money is balls!

Ginger: Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Angela: Ugh, you are helping Tom cheat!

Ginger: Sorry Angela, we are in the big leagues now!

Tom: Ah, Yeah!

MC: Wow, Tom, you are winning over the crowd!

* Tom Gains another vote*

Tom: You know, I wanna thank everyone who text-voted for me. But I wouldn't be without the support that my girlfriend Angela. Come on up here, Angela!

Angela: Grrr!

Tom: Whoa!

Ginger: Awww.

Tom: Wha- I can ex- Angela? (Sighs) Actually, I have to admit something.

(Crowd gasps)

Tom: This whole night, I... have been cheating.

(The crowd, Hank, Ben and MC gasp.)

CEO: Ha-ha-ha! You blew it tom, right at the end too! (Laughs Evilly)

* Light Beam shines at Tom*

Tom: I know. When I started this campaign, my girlfriend said I couldn't win with dirty tricks. And you know what? She's right. If I can't beat the CEO honestly, then I don't deserve to beat him at all. I'd rather lose this election than lose the trust of the people who are important to me. So, I'm sorry that I let you down, but being honest is more important than winning.

* The crowd and Angela clap slowly, then it gets faster. The crowd cheers.*

CEO: Huh?

* Tom gains several more votes.*

MC: What an inspiring and heartfelt speech from whoa-

CEO: Wait, you guys like cheating? I've been cheating during this entire election!

* Crowd starts booing at CEO. He loses votes.*

CEO: I made up lies about Tom! I stole his secret strategy! I paid robots to vote for me! After all I've done to you! Oh!

MC: Tom wins!!!

* Crowd cheers*

MC: Tom is the new mayoooor!

* Angela runs over and hugs Tom*

Angela: Tom, I want you to know-

Tom: I know, you're still mad that I cheated.

Angela: No, I am proud that you were wrong and you won the election!

* Angela kisses Tom*

Ben: So, my secret election strategy worked after all!

Hank: I think it was Tom's last minute speech. Maybe that's why people like integrity, admitting when you're wrong, being a good dude!

Ben: I think it was my thing.

* CEO cries. Ginger jumps over him*

* Crowd cheers*

Tom: Ha-ha, Woo Hoo! Yeah! Woo-hoo, yeah!
