Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure Page #6

---

You have to tell me all your secrets.

Okay, gotta go.

"Life is so strange.

"Shelby and I travel halfway across

the country to find fame and fortune,

"and instead, we find love."

Hey! How about dinner?

Split some egg rolls at Wok This Way?

Can't. I have to highlight script changes

for Amber Lee,

then highlight her hair.

Highlight of my night!

Okay.

But I miss spending time with you.

And you did promise to shoot

some more stuff for my film.

You know,

what I'm doing is important, too.

Oh.

For a minute there,

you sounded like Amber Lee.

"Good to see you. Good to see

you. Good to see you. Good to see you."

Bad news. My maid quit.

So, here's a list of chores.

Chores?

And I want to talk to you about Boi.

But you have to promise

it'll stay between us.

Okay.

I think I'm going to ask the director

to give Boi the part.

- Are you serious?

- Almost positive!

You won't be sorry.

Trust me. I know.

Oh!

Oh, no.

There are some changes for

the blocking in the dog scene,

top of act two.

Countess can learn these in no time.

She's got a memory

like a digital hard drive.

- No bark and all mega-bite.

- Funny.

I need to find Sharpay

and make sure she gets them.

Boi is doing

the first run-through tomorrow.

I'd be more than happy

to deliver them to her.

- Great.

- Thank you.

Thank you.

Sharpay?

Sharpay?

That's unfortunate.

And I've been here ever since.

Life is so strange.

Shelby and I travel halfway across

the country to find fame and fortune,

and instead, we find love.

Lenore, I have something to ask you.

We have something to ask you.

He's supposed to come from the other

side of the stage with the ring box!

Yeah, sorry. We changed that blocking.

What happened?

What is wrong with this dog?

And is he okay? It's not his fault.

He's just a little dog! He's just so sweet.

Okay, everybody.

Let's break for a few.

That's 10, people.

I'm aware. I know.

I don't know

what happened.

We sent out the script changes,

but Boi didn't do them.

But I didn't get any new script change.

I looked everywhere last night

to give them to you.

I guess working for Amber Lee

has its drawbacks.

- You did this on purpose.

- That's a complete...

Yeah.

You're threatened because you know

Amber Lee is gonna choose Boi.

Not after today she won't.

Okay. Countess doesn't have

half the personality that Boi has.

And Boi doesn't have half the talent

that Countess has.

Isn't that right, girl?

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Has anyone seen Boi?

- No, sorry.

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Anyone seen Countess?

- Nope.

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Countess?

- Boi?

- Hello?

- Boi and Countess are gone!

Gone! What?

We have to find them!

Wait, where are you now?

Leaving the theater.

We're gonna look around here.

Can you look near the apartment

in case they come back?

Yeah, yeah. Of course.

Just keep me posted,

and I'll call you if they show up.

Okay. What if they were dog-napped?

Do you think

we pushed them too hard?

- I don't know.

- Countess is ber-sensitive.

She cries

watching dog food commercials!

I just hope they're not huddled

in a corner somewhere.

Afraid, lost, at each other's throats!

You know you love me

I know you care

Just shout whenever

And I'll be there

You are my love

You are my heart

And we will never, ever, ever be apart

Are we an item?

Girl, quit playin'

"We're just friends,"

What are you sayin'?

Said, "There's another"

And looked right in my eyes

My first love broke my heart

for the first time

And I was like

I thought you'd always be mine, mine

Baby, baby, baby, oh

Like baby, baby, baby, no

Like baby, baby, baby, oh

I thought you'd always be mine

I'm goin' down, down, down

And I just can't believe

my first love won't be around

And I'm like baby, baby, baby, oh

Like baby, baby...

What if

we never see them again?

They're smart dogs.

Smarter than we are. They'll be okay.

Oh, no. It's my dad. I just...

I can't deal with him right now.

- Countess!

- Boi!

Hi!

I missed you!

You're back!

It's amazing.

They came back to the apartment.

Thanks, Peyton.

Oh, and Sharpay, it's still on.

Bring it.

You're back! Yeah!

You bad, bad boy, Boi.

I'm just glad you're okay.

He and Countess had an adventure.

She probably coaxed him into

joining a doggy gang or something.

We'd better check him over for tattoos.

Are you so lost in what you're doing

that you haven't noticed?

Noticed what?

Boi and Countess are in love.

- With what?

- Each other.

No way!

You're right. He's dilated.

He's got puppy dog eyes.

How could I have not noticed

puppy love?

Well, there's a lot you haven't noticed.

Like lately, you've had no time for me.

You know, I was counting on you

to help me finish my film.

I said I would, and I will.

Things have become complicated.

It's not that complicated.

Amber Lee is using you,

and you're letting her.

You don't know

what you're talking about.

- I don't?

- No!

Where's the Sharpay that was

determined not to go back home

because she didn't want to work

for anyone?

Why don't you tell me?

Working for someone, that's where.

- So at least be honest as to why.

- I know what I'm doing.

You've sold your soul

to get Boi in that show,

rather than trust in the dog

that you raised.

Even worse, you've stopped trusting

that your own talents

would get you where you need to go.

And maybe you're jealous because I'm

on my way up with a new famous friend,

and you're just a student making a film

about someone else's life

instead of your own.

You don't have to be

in my movie anymore.

I get it.

You have more important things to do.

Fine!

One question?

What happened to that hot pink

whirlwind of confidence and ambition

I saw through my lens

that first day you got here?

I mean, that girl knew she was special.

That girl knew she didn't have to do

any of this to succeed.

What happened to her, huh?

Hello.

Oh, and Sharpay, can you remember to

invite as many people from my fan club

as possible

to opening-night dress rehearsal?

I want the theater filled with people

who love me as much as you do!

Sure.

You know what would be great

after all this work?

A long, luxurious spa bath.

Sounds amazing!

Thank you.

Run one for me, will you?

And then you can finish these.

You're the best!

- This is a big change.

- Huge change!

I don't think you're hearing me!

New Jersey can hear you!

The name of the show is

A Girl's Best Friend.

I didn't tell you to change the title.

But you want the best friend written out!

Oh. Right. Change the title!

How are we supposed to get rid of

one of our main characters

a day before our dress rehearsal

in front of an audience?

The audience is coming to see me.

You change that dog's part to a bark

and play dead, or I don't go on.

Let's be reasonable here.

I'm a star. I don't have to be reasonable!
