---

NARRATOR:
(TEEN BADER voiceover) Life as a kid is a wild ride, especially when report cards come into play. Here’s a glimpse into one of the most chaotic days of my young life.

**[EXT. SCHOOL BUS STOP - MORNING]** *BADER (10), SLIM Z (15), and SHAIKHA (2) are at the bus stop with their friends: CALEB J (12), EVERLEIGH (11), HENRY (10), SCOTT (12), NASTYA (10), TRINITY (11), AZBURY (12), and MICHAEL (11).*

CALEB J:
Today we have PE class! Me and you

guys are on the same team!

AZBURY:
Every time you say that, you end up playing with the other team!

*NASTYA bursts into laughter.*

AZBURY:
What’s so funny?

NASTYA:
Not at all!

AZBURY:
By the way, today we get report cards from our science test!

CALEB J:
(Panicking) Today?

AZBURY:
Yep! The teacher said we’d get them on Monday!

CALEB J:
(nervously) Do you think I might get an A, like every time?

*TRINITY laughs.*

CALEB J:
What’s funny about that?

*HENRY, SCOTT, MICHAEL, and EVERLEIGH arrive just as the bus pulls up.*

EVERLEIGH:
Let’s go to school!

*AZBURY suddenly stops everyone.*

AZBURY:
Wait!

*They all pause for 10 seconds.*

AZBURY:
Alright, let’s go to school!

**[INT. CLASSROOM - LATER]**

*Students are seated as the teacher distributes report cards.*

NARRATOR:
(TEEN BADER voiceover) From that point on it was the moment of truth

MR HARRISON:
When I call your name, tell the class what you got Quietly!

*The students respond with a mix of cheers and groans. BADER watches nervously.*

CALEB J:
(quietly) I got an A+!

*MR HARRISON smiles but then calls CALEB J aside after class.*

MR HARRISON:
Caleb, we need to Talk after class.

**[EXT. SCHOOL GROUNDS - AFTER SCHOOL]** *The boys surround CALEB J, who looks anxious.*

NARRATOR:
(TEEN BADER voiceover) While me and Scott Henry and Azbury found Caleb Caleb decided to act suspicious

BADER:
Where were you? What did the teacher want?

CALEB J:
What teacher?

SCOTT:
Mr. Harrison, our science teacher! Focus!

CALEB J:
He told me it’s great I got an A+, and it’s a jump in success. He thanked me! And he told me that I have to do an essay on the digestive system

BADER:
But I got an A! Why didn’t he call me? Or he only calls for the people who get a plus?

CALEB J:
(still nervous) I don’t know!

BADER:
Tomorrow, I’m gonna ask him!

*CALEB J laughs nervously.*

CALEB J:
No, no! Mr. Harrison said I have to do the essay with another student and I said to him I can’t do the essay without my buddy Bader.

BADER:
As long as I’m with you, I’ll work on it!

*The girls arrive and ask the boys about their grades.*

TRINITY:
What did you guys get?

*The girls share their grades first And then the boys but When BADER is asked, he confidently replies.*

BADER:
I got an A, but Caleb—

*CALEB J suddenly pretends to have a headache.*

CALEB J:
ow, my head!

*TRINITY looks concerned.*

TRINITY:
Are you okay?

**[EXT. TREEHOUSE - LATER]**

*CALEB J sits alone, deep in thought.*

CALEB J:
(muttering) I might have to tell him that my dad is sick... No, that’s a terrible idea. What am I gonna do now?

TRINITY:
(holding a cup of orange juice) hope you feel better now plus where are you going

CALEB J:
I’m going to bader’s to study with him oops I almost forgot my backpack see ya

TRINITY:
(to herself) Caleb is acting weird today

*TRINITY Was about to drink the juice but CALEB J took it and drank it*

NARRATOR:
(TEEN BADER voiceover) To be honest Thanks couldn’t get weirder than that

BADER:
Caleb where are you going and why are you holding your backpack?

CALEB J:
I was about to go to your house to Do the homework with you but My dad sent me to do some errands I’ll go to do the errands and then I’ll come back to you

BADER:
Great after you’re done we will do the homework and the essay Mr. Harrison asked us to do

CALEB J:

BADER:
(to himself) Caleb is acting weird today

**[INT. BADER'S HOME - EVENING]** *BADER excitedly shows his RC car toy to EVERLEIGH, LAURA (CALEB J’s 10-year-old sister), and AZBURY.*

NARRATOR:
(TEEN BADER voiceover) While I was waiting for Caleb to do the essay I was showing off my RC car

AZBURY:
That’s an amazing toy! Where did you get it?

BADER:
I got it as a gift from my cousin after I fixed it for him!

*BADER glances around.*

BADER:
By the way, where is Caleb?

EVERLEIGH:
Trinity told me that Caleb is with you!

BADER:
caleb told me his dad wasn’t him him for errands and he’s still not back.

*CALEB J walks in, looking flustered.*

LAURA:
Where were you?

CALEB J:
At Bader’s! I mean, Dad sent me to get errands!

LAURA:
What do you mean? Dad is asking for you!

*CALEB J starts to panic.*

CALEB J:
What did you tell him?

LAURA:
I told him you were with Bader!

*BADER looks confused.*

BADER:
Hold up let me get this straight So your dad sent you on errands, but he’s asking where you are? How does that make sense like I don’t get it

*AZBURY nods in agreement.*

AZBURY:
Something fishy is going on. What happened, Caleb?

CALEB J:
Nothing! I gotta go, bye!

*CALEB J flees. The others exchange worried glances.*

ALL:
(in unison) Caleb is acting weird today!

[INT. CAFETERIA - NEXT DAY]**

*CALEB J is seen sitting alone, eating a sandwich. BADER approaches, smirking.*

NARRATOR:
(TEEN BADER voiceover) And that moment when I gave the essay to Mr. Harrison I found out the truth you know I was about to beat him up but I gave him a second chance

BADER:
Guess what? A C!

*CALEB J jumps, startled.*

CALEB J:
What do you mean, a C?!

BADER:
You got a C on the science test!

*CALEB J gets frustrated.*

CALEB J:
I will not allow you to tell me that I got a C!

BADER:
Then what did you get?

CALEB J:
A C minus! Who told you?

*BADER looks increasingly angry.*

BADER:
When I was about to give my essay to Mr. Harrison, it turns out he didn’t even ask for one! When I mentioned you told me about the essay idea, he knew you hadn’t told your dad!

*CALEB J looks scared.*

BADER:
Now Mr. Harrison Messaged your dad saying that he is coming tomorrow!

*CALEB J groans dramatically.*

BADER:
Oh yeah, thanks for the idea of the essay, Mr. Harrison was proud of me! He gave me five additional points on my permanent record!

NARRATOR:
(TEEN BADER voiceover) By looking at that face you can see that he is going to get a butt whooping

**[EXT. AZBURY'S BACKYARD - LATER]** *The crew gathers, discussing their next project.*

NARRATOR:
(TEEN BADER voiceover) Azbury And the crew were thinking different ways on doing the english class project
