Bader Zamalano high school year Page #2

---

Slim Z hands Bader his book, and Bader eagerly opens it, ready to try out the advice.

The song "Minute" by E7i starts playing as Bader embarks on his journey to navigate high school with Slim Z's guidance.

INT. BADER’S LIVING ROOM - DAY

Bader stands alone in his living room, a mischievous smile on his face. The sound of laughter and chatter can be heard in the background.

Everleigh approaches Bader, a flirty smirk on her face.

EVERLEIGH:
(Smiling)You know, Bader, throwing this party makes you even cooler. I didn’t think that was possible.

Bader blushes, clearly pleased by the attention.

EVERLEIGH:
(Walking away)Well, I’ll catch up with my friends. Don’t miss me too much, Bader.

Suddenly, Caleb pops up beside Bader, a mischievous look on his face.

CALEB:
(Excitedly)Dude, you’re so in there! Everleigh is totally into you!

Just as the conversation continues, Henry’s voice cuts through the noise.

HENRY:
(Panicking)Bader’s babysitters are here!

The room erupts in chaos as partygoers scramble to exit the house.

INT. BADER’S HOUSE - LIVING ROOM - MOMENTS LATER

Annie Baltic, Caleb Reynolds, and Bader’s older brother, Slim Z, enter the living room, eyeing the mess before them. Bader’s little sister, Shaikha, tags along.

ANNIE:
(Concerned)Bader, what’s been going on here?

BADER:
(Nervous)Um, it’s not what it looks like. We were just having a bit of fun.

SLIM Z:
(Chuckles)Well, looks like you And your friends had a blast. Just clean up this mess, alright?

SHAIKHA:
(Giggling)Bader, you’re in so much trouble!

Bader looks at his chaotic house, realizing he’ll have a lot of cleaning up to do.

CALEB:
(intrigued)Hey, guys, guess what? Bader found something really weird in his stomach this morning!

BADER:
(confused)What are you talking about, Caleb?

CALEB:
(excitedly)He found the Guatemalan Mole Tick! It’s like the cheese touch from “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” but way deadlier!

Bader lifts up his shirt, revealing ten mole ticks clinging to his belly. The cafeteria erupts into a mix of amazement and horror.

BADER:
(panicked)Guys, what do I do? I can’t walk around with these things!

CALEB:
(quickly)Don’t worry, Bader! Stay at my place. We’ll figure this out together.

Bader Removes the ticks by using tweezers

Later that evening, Bader sits on Caleb’s bed, contemplating his next move. Suddenly, he hears a fan spinning and Caleb’s dad screaming in agony from the next room.

BADER:
(worried)What’s happening, Caleb?

Caleb takes a deep breath, determined to lighten the mood.

CALEB:
(grinning)Inspiration strikes at the weirdest times, Bader. I’ve got an idea. Let’s make a song about our crazy adventure!

Bader chuckles, despite the chaos surrounding them.

BADER:
(amused)Alright, Caleb. Let’s do it. What’s the song gonna be called?

CALEB:
(smiling)“We’re the Greatest Roommates,” a parody of “We Are the Greatest Crewmates” by Shiloh and Bros.

Bader joins Caleb in laughter, embracing the absurdity of their situation. Little do they know, their bond will be tested more than ever as they navigate the challenges ahead.

INT. SCHOOL CAFETERIA - DAY

SCOTT:
(interrupting)Hey, guys! Check this out!

Scott reveals a contraption he’s been working on, a Madden 09 Eliminator.

BADER:
(amazed)Whoa, what’s that?

SCOTT:
(grinning mischievously)It’s my invention. Whenever this machine detects a copy of Madden 09, it explodes! Take that, Madden 09!

Bader and Caleb burst into laughter, finding Scott’s invention both absurd and intriguing.

HENRY:
(playfully)You’re quite the mad scientist, Scott.

A sudden commotion erupts from the school cafeteria. Henry rushes inside, inspired to give an impromptu speech about freedom.

Bader, Caleb, Scott look at each other confused, but Everliegh’s face contorts with worry.

INT. CAFETERIA - DAY

Henry, standing on a table, passionately delivers a speech about personal freedom.

HENRY:
guys Let me speak

TASHI:
eat my shorts Henry

And everyone is booing and throwing small rocks at Henry

BADER:
stop that Tashi let Henry speak

HENRY:
please this is serious

TASHI:
go back to your own table

HENRY:
What I wanna say is if you keep acting like this you might become a criminal and go to prison for a long time we got to be sensible and make things work

The atmosphere grows tense as Slim Z enters the scene, brandishing a knife.

BADER:
(screaming) NOOOOOO!!!!

The room falls silent as Slim Z stabs Henry, shocking everyone present.

INT. HALLWAY - DAY

An animated sequence overlays the somber atmosphere in the high school. Students mourn, crying over Henry’s untimely death.

INT. BADER’S ROOM - NIGHT

Bader sits on his bed, staring at the camera. The room is drawn in a notebook style, resembling a personal diary.

BADER:
(To the camera) After Henry’s funeral, Caleb and I became inseparable roommates with Everliegh. It’s strange how high school has brought us even closer, despite the tragedy. Henry was eccentric, with his hygiene issues, but he was still one of my best friends. High school feels like a step up from elementary and middle school, and this year has been a rollercoaster of emotions. Who knows what lies ahead for me next?

The camera pans out, and the melancholic tune of “Best Thing” by E7i starts playing as the ending credits roll, depicting mementos and memories of their time together.
