Wish Upon A Star Page #3

Synopsis: Handsome, considerate high-school jock Kyle Harding is the only taste the Wheaton sisters share. Tall, fashionable, popular airhead big sister is dating him, but fails to truly appreciate the young gentleman, let alone contemplate a serious relationship. Nerdy kid sister Haley hates the waste and expresses her envy by thoughtlessly wishing at a 'shooting star' (comet) to be Alexia. To their stupor, that happens the next morning. Forced to live each-other's lives, but unable to do it well by the other's standards, the sisters soon hate each-other even more and deliberately screw up. Gradually, they realize they would only both lose out, learn to appreciate the other's values and reconsider their own. Remain the matters of obviously utterly confused Kyle, and new neighbor boy Simon, whose no longer secret crush on Haley was confounded by Alexia.

come with me to the kitchen...

and I'll show you

how to liven up that salad?

It's not that bad.

- What?

- What is that?

- What?

- This.

- That!

- Ow. I don't know.

That's a hickey, you tramp.

This? This is a hickey?

Yes!

It sounds like Alex got a hickey

and Hayley finds it distasteful.

Who did this to you?

I mean, me.

I mean...

Who the hell did this?

Well, Kyle.

We were kissing...

and I guess things got

a little out of control.

You don't know how to kiss.

I'm a natural.

Wait a second.

I broke up with Kyle last night.

Well, you got back together with him

this afternoon.

This is unethical, Hayley!

- How could you?

- I couldn't resist, Alex.

He told me I never looked prettier.

He was talking to me.

No, he was talking to me.

You weren't there. Besides...

he doesn't like

all that makeup you wear.

That's it.

Outside! Thanks a lot for ruining

the most relaxing day of my life.

Well, I have never seen Hayley

express her emotions so openly.

Do it! Do it now!

It's overcast. I can't.

You mean to tell me that I'm stuck...

in this measly little body

for another day...

while you just parade around...

ruining my reputation

and destroying my beautiful nails?

Looks that way, doesn't it?

That it is. This is war!

I'm gonna get you back.

Fine. Be that way.

It was worth it.

I'm on to you, Hayley.

I know all about you and Caitlin

invading my privacy.

Reading my diary,

trying on my clothes. Excuse me!

- Where do you think you're going?

- Ow! My room.

Let's get something straight, Hayley.

You might have my body, breasts

and boyfriend, but you are not me.

Go to your own room.

Fine. But what would

Mom and Dad think?

Fine, but if you touch anything...

you'll wish you had never been born.

- Fine.

- Fine.

Good morning, Alex.

This would be day two

of your diet, right?

What diet?

How about some juice with that?

What are you doing?

You want to fit into

your festival gown, don't you?

Screw the festival.

You're not... You're not gonna let her

go out like that, are you?

- I don't see why not?

- You don't think it's flattering?

You'll make a fool of me.

I mean, her.

Well, I really don't care

what you think.

Now, I recall you going out in public

in the same outfit not so long ago.

That was Halloween!

Mom, you've gotta lock her in her room

so she can't get in any trouble.

- Ben, she's got a point.

- Uh, uh, uh.

Hayley can wear whatever she wants.

It's an expression of her individuality.

And, Alex...

the same goes for you.

- Isn't that what you wore yesterday?

- Mm-hmm.

But the dance photos are today.

Did you at least shower?

- What about my ride?

- Heard of walking?

I'm your new neighbor Simon.

Could I have a ride?

Oh, sure, but hurry and get in...

'cause I'm trying to make a quick exit.

My sister and I are in a fight,

and, well, she's a little crazy.

All right. Hold it there. Good.

Good.

Hold it and say "queen."

Queen!

Okay. Let's try that again.

And say "queen"!

Queen!

- And say "queen."

- Queen.

That'll have to do.

No way!

What do you want?

Are you up for that oral exam?

Whatever.

Slide one.

Omega Nebula in Sagittarius.

Slide two. Omega Nebula.

Define the Ptolemaic Universe.

You're the teacher.

You should know.

Hayley, that's enough.

Please define it.

I am drawing a blank.

How about another question?

All right.

Tell me what a comet is.

Now you're speaking my language.

It's an abrasive product used

to scrub away sink residue.

Attention, all students.

All club dues must be paid by Friday...

except chess club,

which has been canceled this year...

due to lack of interest.

Aly, hey.

Hi.

You are so pretty, Aly.

Thanks.

I brought you something.

- You wrapped it yourself.

- I know it's not the best...

It's great.

Oh, I love it.

Why don't you blow off your friends

and come sit with me?

I just have to make an appearance.

I'll be there in a sec.

Smell much?

Ew!

Same ensemble, two days in a row?

Alex, that's violation

of rule number four.

- Don't tell me it's from Kyle.

- It's from Kyle.

Alex, that is totally unacceptable.

We signed these rules in blood.

Some of these rules are a little hard

for me to abide by. Sorry.

But they were your idea.

Well, my newest idea

is that we abolish them.

Very funny.

- Where is she going?

- What is she doing?

- It's so good to see you.

- Likewise.

But what's with your sister,

or should I say Madonna?

She's just trying to prove a point,

you know...

that she doesn't care

what people think of her.

Although I know she really does.

- Hi.

- I can't relate to her anymore.

I thought about it, and realized I fit

in better with you and your friends.

You got it all wrong, Caitlin.

Stay away from them.

You walk the walk

You talk the talk

It makes me feel

So real

The way you move

The way you smile

It touches me

Deep inside

You got me

Oh, Kyle, you're such a good kisser.

Give me another hickey, baby!

The things that you do

- Check it out.

- Oh, my God!

The things you do

What do you think

your parents will do...

when they find out what a disgrace

the two of you are?

You can rest assured they'll be

in tomorrow to hear all about it.

I should have blown the whistle on you

when I caught you driving.

But this... such disrespect.

This is grounds for disqualification

from the science fair.

Who wants to be in a geek fest anyway?

Wait. It means everything

in the world to you.

Just give her another chance,

Ms. Mittermiller, please?

As for you, Alexia,

one more scene of misconduct...

and I'm going to suspend you.

How would that look

to the Felder panel?

Or for that matter,

to the festival voters?

Do it, and we'll find out.

But I've... I mean...

She's worked her entire life

on becoming queen.

And I've admired it so.

Don't do it, Ms. Mittermiller.

So who's gonna vote for you anyway?

The student body's opinion

of you both...

is on display

in the ladies' bathroom.

Follow me.

Clean it off if you want

to be admitted back to class.

I can't believe you would do that.

I've been working a year

on that project.

If I could have,

I would have had you expelled too.

I mean, at first you come home

with a hickey on your neck.

Next, you're practically mauling

my boyfriend at the cafeteria.

What next, Hayley?

What, are you gonna lose

my virginity too?

You... You're a virgin?

Yes, I'm a virgin!

I have morals, Hayley!

You obviously don't know

very much about me.

Wow. I mean, Caitlin and I were sure

that you and Kyle were...

Well, I didn't do anything like that,

except kiss.

- A lot.

- You didn't?

I can't believe you actually thought

I would do that.

What am I supposed to think?

I'm sorry, Alex.

I'm really sorry.

Look, we'd better cut this out...

before we just destroy

each other's lives.

Okay? There's nothing more important

to me than going to Felder.

I just want a chance.

Please don't take that away from me.

I won't.

But you gotta get me out of this
