Is Rising

High-Rise, Overtime

Working Till The Moon

Is Shining

Hot Guys, Fly Girls

Never Thought I'd Say

I Feel On Top

Of The World...

( Both Shout )

Really?

The Hat, Too?

It Was Calling Me, Okay?

"Wear Me. Wear Me."

Are You Sure

It Wasn't Calling You,

"Trash Me, Burn Me"?

Mm-Hmm.

Oh, Thank You.

Thank You.

( Both Shriek )

( Sobbing )

Sit.

I Meant On The Couch.

Right. Okay.

We Knew That.

You Two Are A Lot Younger

Than I Thought You'd Be.

Is That A Problem?

'Cause We're Very

Mature For Our Age.

Yes, People Think

We Are, Like, 30.

I Want Young.

And That's When

We Tell Them,

"Hello, People!

We're Only 14"

Right, Av?

Totally.

Well, Burns Publications

Has Been Looking

For A Fresh Voice,

A Young Voice,

A Unique Voice.

And I Think Geekly Chic

Is That Voice.

It Is? I Mean, Uh,

Of Course It Is.

Wait, You Really

Liked Our Webazine?

Loved It. Which Is Why

I Want To Use It

To Launch Our Brand-New

Website, Our New Magazine,

And Our New Fabulous

Clothing Line.

It'll Be A Media Empire.

Are You Kidding?

Do I Look Like A Person

With A Sense Of Humor?

No, Not Really.

( Gasps )

Geekly Chic.

Don't Smudge It.

Oh.

Av, There Will Be

Red Dots Everywhere.

Don't They Sell Creams

For That?

Miss St. Claire,

You Have No Idea

How Long Halley And I

Have Been Dreaming

About This Day.

Wait A Minute.

"Halley And I"?

I Called This Meeting

With Halley Brandon,

The Editor-In-Chief.

What Are You?

Her Assistant?

Heh. If I Were

Her Assistant,

Do You Think I Would

Let Her Out Of The House

Wearing That Skirt

With That Hat?

Sorry. Um...No.

I Am Avalon Greene,

Co-Editor-In-Chief.

Yes, We're A Team.

You're A Team?

That's Adorable.

I Hate It.

What? Why?

Because If I Buy

Your Webazine,

On Staffing It

With My Own Underpaid

Web Designers.

However, I Want One Of You

On Board As Editor

So Geekly Chic Maintains

That Fresh Voice

Of Zit-Faced Kids

Everywhere.

Sort Of Breaks Up Your

Little Team, Doesn't It?

So...Flip A Coin, Girls.

Who Shall It Be?

Wait, You're

Asking Us To Choose

Which One Of Us Gets

To Live Our Dream?

( Groans )

Sounds So Terribly Sad

When You Put It That Way.

Don't Put It That Way.

But--But We're

Best Friends.

We Worked Really

Hard On This.

How Could We Compete

With Each Other

For A Job?

Hmm. I Understand.

I Once Had

A Best Friend Myself.

We Were So Close.

In Fact, I Got Her

Her First Job.

Really? As What?

My Maid.

But She Wasn't Very Good,

So I Fired Her.

But Back To You Two.

I Have An Idea.

To Make This Fair,

I'll Give Both Of You

One Week

To Come Up

With A Cover Story

Of Our Very First Issue

Of Geekly Chic.

Whoever Does The Best Job

Gets To Be My Senior

Editor-In-Chief.

But--But We Worked

Really Hard.

And This Is Kind Of

Like A Joint Effort.

This Is Not Fair.

It's Either One Of You...

Or None Of You.

You Can Pack Up Your Bagpipes

And Go Now.

Go.

Oh, Sorry.

Sorry.

Okay. Bye.

Okay.

This Is The Worst Day.

This Is

The Worst Skirt.

And Hat.

Ohh!

So...Have You Found

Anything Interesting Yet

To Write About?

Not Really. You?

No.

Can You Believe

This Is All I Can Afford

For Breakfast?

Since When Did Pancakes

Go Up $1.50?

I Need To Collect

My Belt Rent.

Not Now, Kendall.

I'm Busy.

How About You, Avalon?

I'm Not Really Busy.

I Just Don't Really Care.

I Found It.

A Sock To Stuff

In His Mouth?

No, Better.

You Know That Indie

Singer Jean-Frank?

He's Coming To America

For His First Concert

Outside Of France.

Um, Excuse Me. How Is This

More Important Than Me

Getting My Pancakes?

Because Jean-Frank

Has An Amazing Sound.

We've Been Following Him

Online For Months,

And Once He Comes Here

And Performs Live,

He's Gonna Blow Up.

Exactly.

That's Why He Needs

To Be Interviewed Now

Before He's So Hot That

Everybody Wants Him.

This Would Make

An Awesome Cover Story

For Geekly Chic.

Um, That's My Story.

Your Story?

But We Thought Of It

At The Same Time.

That Editor Job

Is Mine.

No, It's Not.

It's Mine.

Uh, Hate To Burst

Both Your Bubbles,

But It Looks Like

Neither Of You Is Gonna

Get To Interview Him.

What?!

What?!

Says Here Jean-Frank's

Concert's Sold Out.

So, Unless You Two

Can Find Tickets...

Man, Did It Just Get

Suffocatingly Hot In Here.

I'm Getting

Into That Concert.

Really? And Then What?

Let's See You Get

An Interview With Him.

You Get All Flustered

Around People, Remember?

I'm The Only One

Who Can Talk To Him.

Well, You Might Be

Able To Talk The Talk,

But Let's See You

Write The Right...

Words. Ahem.

I'm Not Losing Out

To You.

Took The Words

Right Out Of My Mouth.

( Busy Signal )

Here. You Need This

More Than I Do.

Ah, Thank You.

Oh, Very Nice,

Very Nice.

Shh.

I'm Calling The Radio

Station Z.V.F.M.

If I'm

The 100th Caller,

I Get A Free Ticket To

The Jean-Frank Concert.

Okay.

Hello!

Hi. Um, I Was

Calling About The--

Man:
You're

The 101st Caller.

What?

I'm Number 101?

But--But I Need

That Ticket!

Sorry, Miss,

Try Again Next Time.

Okay. Okay, Fine.

Yeah. And F.Y.I.--

Your Music Stinks.

Smooth. Laying On The Charm

To Get Your Ticket.

I Like It.

Look, Kendall,

The Concert Is Friday.

What Am I Going To Do?

I Wonder If Avalon's

Doing Any Better.

So, Where's Your

Little Sidekick?

To Know Everything.

And I Believe You Need

A Ticket To See

Some French Singer

Yeah. Jean-Frank.

But His Concert

Is It?

Unless You Possibly

Have One.

( Laughs )

Now, That's Amusing.

So, I Take It

The Answer's No.

Um, I May Be Persuaded

To Look Further

Into The Matter.

Whoa. Dude, What's With

The Eyebrow Dance?

Have You Been

Torturing Me

Since School Started

Because You Actually

Like Me?

( Snorts )

That Is Amusing.

Well, Thanks Anyway,

Walker.

Well, Actually, Um,

You Might Be

Interested To Know

That I Have

A Cousin In France

Whose Roommate Happens

To Be The Nephew

Of The Guy Whose

Daughter Is Engaged

To The Dry Cleaner

Who Fluffs And Folds All
