My Grandpa

School.

Shh! Quiet Girls!

You Know, On Second Thought,

I've Decided To Wait Until

You Are Not So Stinky To Tell

You,

So, Go, Unstinkify Yourself.

[ Grumbling ]

-Go On.

-Go, Go, Go!

I Know.

I'm Very Cool Awesome.

Oh, That Little Rat!

Patience, Patience.

Let The Rat Have The Cheese For

Now.

I'm Gonna Go Dump Those Out.

You Guys Fill Up The New Ones,

Okay?

And Add A Little Surprise

To One Of Them.

Taylor:
Okay, Hurry, Abby.

I'm Gonna Get Some Help.

Emily:

Can I Tell The Girls? Piease?

Well, I Usually Look Forward

To This Thing Every Year,

But, Uh, Let's Make A Deal.

I'll Tell Them Who First String

Is,

And Then You Can Announce

The Goalie, Okay?

Okay, Deal. Who Is It?

-Wow, Really?

-Yeah, Yeah.

Okay.

All Right. Come On In, Girls.

Come On In.

Please Sit Down.

Indian-Style Please.

Thank You. Thank You.

Very Good Job. Very Good Job.

I'm Very Proud Of You.

You've All Done Very Well This

Week.

And Now Our First String

Is Tara, Riley, Molly,

Claire, Mia, Ashley,

Reagan, Bianca,

Abby, And Janice.

Good Job, Everyone.

Good Job.

And The Goalie Is. . . Paige!

[ Laughs ]

Coach, Can I Pass Out

The Water Cups?

Uh, Yeah, That's A Good Idea.

Hydrate, Hydrate, Right?

Emily:

Hydrate, Hydrate!

I'm. . . I'm Okay, Thanks.

I Think You Should.

Rules, You Know?

Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate.

No, Really. I Just Had A Drink

Before I Took My Shower.

Thanks, Though.

Coach, Mia Won't Drink The

Water,

And You Know How Important

Proper Hydration Is.

It's A Rule, And All.

Mia, I'm Very Surprised.

Take A Cup Immediately.

Abby:

Enjoy.

I'm Really Not Thirsty.

Drink It, Mia.

Coach:

Okay, Now For The Fun Part.

Who Wants Number One, Huh?

Me!

Okay, Riley, There You Go.

All Right, Keep Catching 'Em!

Coach:

Good Job!

-Coach. . .

-Yes?

I'm Not Feeling Well.

Oh, Well, We'll Be Done Here

In A Minute, Okay?

No, Really. I Can't Wait.

What's Wrong, Mia?

Stomach Hurt?

May I Be Excused, Please?

-Mia, I--

-Coach, Mia Really Is Sick.

Can We Take Her To The Restroom?

I'll Take Her.

She's My Best Friend!

Maybe We Should All Go.

You All Want To?

Mia, Wait!

[ Vomits ]

Um, Are You Okay, Mia?

She Will Be. . . In Time.

You Guys Put Something

In That Water!

Is That So?

I Bet You're Wondering

Why We Didn't Get Sick This

Time.

I Don't Know

What You're Talking About.

Don't Play Dumb. You're The One

That's Been Making Everyone

Sick.

She Is Not!

Paige:

Yes, She Is.

Tell Her, Mia.

Tell Her How You Made

Everybody Sick.

-Mia, What Are They Talking Abo?

-I Have No Idea.

I Would Listen If I Were You,

Riley.

Let Me Tell You

How She Made Everyone Sick,

Even You, Her Best Friend.

Don't Listen To Them, Riley!

I'm Going To Need An

Explanation.

I Had To Leave A Very Important

Staff Meeting For This.

Taylor Says She Knows

How Everyone Got Sick.

It Was Mia.

It Was Not Me.

Why Would She Do That?

Besides, She Got Sick Twice

Herself.

Explain That, If You Can.

She Was Faking.

Making Accusations Like That

Is Very Serious.

I Hope You Girls Have Some

Proof.

Me Too.

Oh, We Do.

I'm Listening.

The Other Day,

I Was Collecting Lab Notes,

And Mia's Writing Is So Perfect.

She Puts This Little Squiggly

On Her Letter A's.

We Were Looking At The Notes

In Our Room, And I Saw That

Squiggle.

Prove It! Anyone Could Copy

My Squiggle.

Not Me.

True.

Okay, You're Going To Need

Some More Proof Than That.

I Mean, She's Right,

Anyone Could Copy Her Handwriti,

Except Riley.

What About This For Starters?

Abby Said That The Person

Who Was Doing This

Must Have Been Getting

Something From It.

So I Remembered Something.

Someone Is Making A Lot Of Money

Off These Machines.

Hey, Dad.

So, We Figured Out

That The Only Person

Who Would Be Able

To Gain Anything From This

Was The Person

Who Owned The Vending Machines,

And I Did Some Checking Online,

And All The Machines In The Schl

Are Owned By Maxwell

Enterprises,

Your Dad.

Everybody Was Eating

Out Of The Vending Machines

Because They Thought The Food In

The Cafeteria Was Making Them

Sick.

So You And Your Family

Were Making Money

By Making Everyone Sick.

Okay, So She Had A Motive,

But How Did She Do It?

How Did She Make Everyone Sick?

Here's How. . .

No Way. Is He All Right?

And It Worked.

Well, I Got To Go.

Bye, Mom.

What Happened?

Little Brothers. Spare Me!

What Did He Do?

Yeah, What Did He Do?

Is There An Echo In Here?

Must Be.

[ Sighs ]

So What Really Happened?

He Ate Some Berries

Off A Bush Outside Our House.

My Mom Gave Him Ipecac

To Make Him Throw Up.

Ricky Told Me All About It

In Total Detail.

Both:

Gag!

You Look Really Bad.

I Know.

You Put Ipecac In Everyone's

Water

To Make Them Think The Food

In The Cafeteria Was

Contaminated.

And Then Your Dad Would Make Moy

Off The Vending Machines,

And You Would Get To Go

To Modeling School This Summer.

How Did You Know That?

I Heard You And Riley

Talking About It In Chemistry.

[ Sighs ] Okay, So Even

If You Guys Were Right --

Which You're Not --

How Would I Even Get This ''Iff'

Or Whatever You Call It?

Well, Remember This?

Why Are You Looking So Guilty,

Brad?

For All We Know,

You Put The Note Up.

I Got Sick, Remember?

And I Helped Nurse Betty

With The Other Sick Kids.

We Found This In Mia's Room.

Nurse Betty Checked Her

Supplies,

And She's Missing

A Couple Bottles Of Ipecac.

Busted!

Principal:

Okay, This Is Terrible.

-It Makes You Hurl.

-Toss Your Cookies.

Upchuck.

Barfarooney.

Okay, You Girls Can All Go Now.

I Will Deal With Mia.

Principal:

You Can Go, Too, Riley.

I Don't Believe She Did It.

No Matter How Much Proof There

Is.

Thanks, Riley.

You're The Best.

[ Vomits ]

Emm. . .

You Did It!

Huh?

You're Head Cheerleader!

-Me?

-Yeah!

Are You Serious?

But What About Riley?

What About Me?

[ Scoffs ]

[ All Chuckle ]

You So Beat Her!

Yeah!

Let's Go! Eat It Up!

Let's Go! Good For You!

Eat It!

No Fruit Today?

No. No Fruit Today.

Just A Pile Of Junk.

I Mean, Good Stuff.

I'm Celebrating.

How About A Fat Boy?

Thank You.

Sergeant:

Enjoy.

Have You Decided

What Dress You're Going To Buy

Yet?

Well, I Like That One,

And I Like That One,

So I Just Haven't Decided Yet.

I Like That One.

[ Sighs ]

What's Up, Guys?

Isn't He So Cute?

Uh-Huh.

No Way! This Is Too Good.

You Could Start Right Here.

I Want These Floors Spotless!

-Because A Clean Kitchen--

-Is A Happy Kitchen!

I Know! I Know!

Taylor:

Well, She Got What She Deserved.

Yeah, Kitchen Duty Every Day

And No Model Camp This Summer.

Riley:

Hi, Mia.

I Can't Believe Riley's

Still Friends With Her,

After All Mia Did.

Me Either.

Riley:
You Know, You Can Come

Sit Down With Us When You're

Done.

Poor Baby.

Well, All's Well That Ends Well.

Everyone! Everyone!

There's Another Note!

It's On The Library Door!

[ Indistinct Exclamations ]

Student:

I Do Not Want To Get Sick Again!

I Hated That, Ugh!

I Hate It When This Happens!
