Flash! - Episode 17

Opening Sequence:

The Dandy Warhols' "We Used To Be Friends" plays as we witness Loukas sat in his bedroom. Ash is at the door with her arms folded. The scene cuts to Dezzy's house, as Hugo is playing with his breakfast. He receives a message on his pager from DamonJ and makes his excuses to BigSister. Finally, we see Ross walking through the town centre as his eyes fall upon Matt, who is opening up Andy's for the day's business. He throws a sarcastic smile Matt's way, just as Lauren walks up behind him.

Scene One:

Lauren: Guess who!
Ross: Either Miss World or someone equally beautiful. Oh, I was right.
Lauren: Oh, that was just cringe.
Ross: I apologise.
Matt: Hey, Lauren!

He runs up to her and hugs her, as Ross looks away with obvious annoyance.

Lauren: Hey, what time does your shift finish today?
Matt: Uhh, 4. You?
Ross: She starts at 6 this evening.
Matt: Oh.
Ross: Yeah, bye now.

He drags Lauren away suddenly, and she waves back at Matt apologetically.

Scene Two:

At Nickyy's house, Mrluvaluva is at the door. He lets himself in and Ninastar runs up to him and leaps in his arms. She is wearing a tutu.

Mrluvaluva: How's my prima ballerina?
Ninastar: Daddy!
Mrluvaluva: Uh, no Caitlin, I'm not your daddy.
Nickyy: Hey...Ninastar, can you go play in your room for a bit?

Ninastar runs upstairs obediently.

Mrluvaluva: We need to talk.
Nickyy: I know.
Mrluvaluva: About what happened, I...
Nickyy: It was a mistake.
Mrluvaluva: Oh.
Nickyy: I was drunk, and emotional...and you were too. I mean you'd just buried your wife.
Mrluvaluva: Yeah...

There's an awkward silence between them.

Nickyy: You agree, right? I mean, you don't...have feelings for me do you?
Mrluvaluva: Huh? Me? Of course not!
Nickyy: Good. Because I see you as a great friend and I don't want that...complicated any more.

He smiles and approaches to hug her, but whilst in his arms he pulls a pained expression.

Scene Three:

At Tom's house, the family are in the living area, when Billy emerges from his bedroom.

Tom: You can think again if you think you're going anywhere today.
Billy: It was one time, Dad, it won't happen again!
Tom: You know your junkie friends were arrested again yesterday?
Doug: Really?
Christina: Dad, go easy on him.
Tom: Don't tell me how to be a parent, sweetie.
Billy: Look, I need to go and get a tie for Prom.
Tom: Then you can go downtown with Doug.
Doug: Yeah, that'd be fine with me.
Billy: It's great to know how much you trust me. I wish you'd never come back for me.

He storms to Doug's car and waits in a sulk.

Scene Four:

On the outskirts of the town there is a mountain range, and the camera zooms in on a modern building Landscape windows are present throughout the building, and we can now see inside one. There is a long, curved desk at which several people are sat.

PC Andyman: So it's clear that the Spearsians are now out in public.
PC AMA: Indeed. And their superior crime-fighting skills are making us look mediocre by comparison.
PC Andyman: Exactly. So the genius plan AMA and I have come up with is this. We need to frame them for the attacks on the school - if the public believe that, they'll be outcasts.
PC NettoSuperstar: Excellent. Then finally we'll get the recognition we deserve.
PC Spike: But how do we frame them?
PC AMA: With faked CCTV footage of course. There's already uncertainty about them buzzing around the town; this doubled with the town's fear will make them easy to fool. So if we release a statement saying we've found something that vaguely relates to the Spearsians - word of mouth will get around. I'll send some faked footage to the local news station.

The group of rogue officers laugh together at how their plan is coming along.

Scene Five:

At the department store, Firewire and Harry. are shopping for suits. Ruth*Star is in the changing rooms trying on a variety of dresses, coming out to test for approval from her girlfriends. Billy enters the same area of the store with Doug.

Doug: Okay, look around. I'll be in the underwear section if you need me.
Billy: To help me put on a tie? No thanks.

Doug wanders off, and Harry. sniggers at Billy.

Billy: Problem, freak?
Harry.: Uh, no, just...I don't need my Dad to take me shopping.
Firewire: I'm thinking a pinstripe grey suit with white shirt.
Ruth*Star: Ooh totally! Pinstripe is so fetch!

A group of girls nearby nod in eager approval. Harry. wanders up to one of them and asks to talk to her away from the group.

Harry.: Hey, um, do you have a date for Prom?
Sarah.y2j: Er...no...
Harry.: Right, well, part of my whole new image around TiBBOaks is that I'm more confident and stuff, so I just want to come right out and say it - will you go to Prom with me?
Sarah.y2j: Eww!

She runs out of the department store and is knocked over by a bus.

Billy: Nice moves, Casanova.

Harry. lunges at Billy and the store's security quickly intervene. Doug comes back from where he was shopping to talk to a guard who has apprehended Billy.

Doug: I leave you for two minutes and you're in a scrap?
Billy: He started it!
Doug: Please, he looks about 12 at most.
Billy: He's the same year as me.
Doug: Whatever. Have you picked a tie yet?
Billy: Yeah, this one.

He holds up a burgundy-coloured silk tie and Doug goes to pay for it, apologising to the staff for the disturbance.

Scene Six:

At MarkWaldorf HQ, Hugo has just arrived to find DamonJ sitting in a bean-bag listening to his iPod. He clicks his fingers to attract attention.

Hugo: You buzzed me?
DamonJ: Oh, yeah, um. I need help.
Hugo: With? What is it?
DamonJ: It's been bugging for me a while. And I don't normally talk about major stuff like this, but...
Hugo: Are you gay?
DamonJ: EW WHAT?
Hugo: Sorry I just...carry on.
DamonJ: Well what I was going to ask is...

He holds up two similar pairs of shoes.

DamonJ: Black or charcoal?
Hugo: They're practically the same.
DamonJ: Forgive him Louboutin, he is uneducated in the realm of fashion.
Hugo: You can surely see why it's not a stretch for me to assume you're gay now, right?
DamonJ: Ugh, go pluck your eyebrows.

He continues comparing the two pairs of shoes and comes to no conclusion.

Scene Seven:

Back at Annie's dormitory, Mark is filming Ken and Lee making out on the sofa. Annie is acting as an impromptu fluffer, and offers critical advice on trivial matters.

Annie: Can we get some more light? You can't see the sheen.
Mark: Ugh, cut! Cut! Ken, Lee, go get a soda. Annie! Over here.

He drags her over into the dining area of the dormitory.

Annie: I just want things perfect - the last video only received 2000 hits. That made us just over £400.
Mark: I know, which is why we need to stop interrupting with the fluidity of the scene.
Annie: You're a porno expert now?
Mark: Honey, I'm a gay teenage virgin. What do you expect?

She rolls her eyes and drags a stand-up lamp from the corner of the room. She stumbles and the lamp falls and knocks Ken on the head, leaving a gash in his forehead.

Mark: Ken! Oh Ken! Babe! Talk to me! How many fingers am I holding up?
Ken: Seven. I'm OK Mr. Mark, just bleeding.
Mark: See what you've done now! Our lead role has a cut, imagine the kind of continuity Hell this will cause when we get to the fisting scene!

He takes off his beret and throws it on the floor, storming out of the dormitory.

Scene Eight:

At Andy's, it is now early evening. Lauren is working behind the bar, where Christina is sat drinking a WKD Blue.

Lauren: That would be £2.50 for the shitmongers, babe, but because I get discount it's only £2.
Christina: Where would I be without you?

Mark storms into the bar and sits down on a stool with a huff.

Mark: Double vodka and lemonade, bitch, and skip the wedge of lemon bullshit.
Lauren: Bad day at the office, honey?
Mark: You can say that again! Ken's got a cut on his forehead, thanks to Annie's interfering.
Christina: Is he OK? Who's Ken?
Mark: My Filipino rentboy.

Christina spits out some of her drink in shock.

Lauren: He's Vietnamese, and he's not your rent-boy.
Mark: Technicalities!

Ross comes in and pecks Lauren on the lips.

Ross: Cider and black please.
Mark: Ross! Favour!
Ross: I'm not letting you draw me naked again.
Mark: No, bigger favour. I need you to stand in for Ken.
Ross: Huh?
Mark: Ken. He's got a facial injury. I need you to fist Lee for like 5 minutes and-

Ross punches him in the nose.

Mark: My beautiful face!

Someone grabs Ross by the collar of his shirt and pulls him to his feet.

Ross: What the?!
Matt: Simple policy. No fights in here.
Lauren: Matt, it's OK, it was a joke.
Ross: Back off.
Matt: Oh yeah, or what?
Ross: Or this!

He plants a punch on Matt's jaw and he staggers over. Lauren leaps from behind the bar and separates the two, until Ross lashes out suddenly and hits her accidentally.

Lauren: You-!
Ross: I didn't mean to!
Matt: Get out!

He drags Ross outside and shuts the door behind him. Christina is mopping up Mark's nose with a tissue.

Christina: Never a dull day in TiBBOaks.
Mark: Nice story, Christina, but shut up and mop me.

Closing Sequence:

Instead of the usual music, the final scene flips between the living areas of various residents of TiBBOaks. We start off in LemonJam's house, where he and LEEZIDJ are watching the evening news. The camera continually cuts to others' houses, including Daren's, Dezzy's, Annie's and Tom's. The anchorman suddenly puts his finger to his earpiece and the autocue brings up a Breaking News story.

JOSHUAH!: This just in - what you'll now see on your screens, we are told, is new footage taken before and during the attacks on TiBBOaks school last week. It appears that there were three different-coloured flashes of light just as the first wave of explosions detonated, and eyewitness reports claim that three costumed youths were seen running away from the scene. No identification on the three youths is yet available, but police officers have stressed that they would like to question them with regard to the attacks, which are still unsolved.

Flash! - Episode 18

Opening Sequence
"Hello, I Love You" by The Doors is playing. We are reunited with the first glimpse of Annie's dormitory in 2 months. Little has changed except the occasional pieces of furniture. Mark and Lauren are slouched over some coursework whilst Annie and Princess apply makeup in their mirrors. The scene cuts to the Spearsians lair, where DamonJ's cape and costume is hung up on a peg. MarkWaldorf and Hugo look at it with a tinge of regret, before hearing a knock on the door. They go to answer it.

Scene One:
Hugo pulls the door open and in steps MrGaryy.

MarkWaldorf: Can we help?
Hugo: Don't be wasting our time.
MrGaryy: I heard you were looking for a replacement.
Hugo: That we are. Don't tell me you think you're up for it.
He looks MrGaryy up and down with an air of disgust.
MrGaryy: I'm trained in hand-to-hand combat, am able to fly, and spent a year with the Christinalites.
MarkWaldorf: Ah yes, I'm familiar with that bunch of wannabes. Why did you leave them?
MrGaryy: There was some confusion - some has-beens thought we were idolising this slag on a Big Brother forum, instead of the one and only Ms. Aguilera.
Hugo: But you do realise that Britney is Queen?
There is a pause.
MrGaryy: Of course.
MarkWaldorf: We'll run you on trial.
Hugo: Now hurry up, we have a Prom to prepare for.

Scene Two:
In a new house, TiBB Town old face, Hannah, is guiding some delivery men to unpack her furniture. Nicky walks up to catch up on some gossip.

Nicky: You look familiar...
Hannah: Really? That's odd. I'm Hannah.
Nicky: Nicky. Pleased to meet you.
Hannah: Um, you don't happen to know if a Dezzy still lives here, does he?
Nicky: Yeah, he does. Why?
Hannah: Ah, excellent.
She grabs a valuable lamp from a clumsy-looking boy and sets it down on a desk, whilst smiling to herself.

Scene Three:
At the Iceman bakery, Ash and Rémy are preparing for a day out, whilst Iceman waits impatiently.

Ash: Loukas! Come on!
Iceman: It's already 11am, for goodness' sake!
Loukas: I'm not coming!
Rèmy: No fair! I wanna go Legoland!
Ash: You'll do what your told, mister! Get your arse down here.

He storms downstairs and jumps in the car.

Scene Four:
Back at the dormitory, Mark and Lauren still look glum.

Princess: What is wrong with you two?
Annie: You're not still caught up over Ross are you?
Mark: WHAT ABOUT ME? Ken and Lee, the two loves of my life, were deported!
Annie: I know, baby, but I'm sure they'll get another VISA.
Lauren: I don't know what to do.
Princess: Well he's been leaving messages for you every day, and to be quite honest, I'm getting bored of it. I know he hit you, but surely it was an accident!
Lauren: It's the constant jealousy of Matt, and I can't talk to other guys like I normally do. I don't want to be made to feel like I'm always being watched.
Princess: Well tell that to him, then.

There is a knock at the door.

Princess: Speak of the Devil.

Ross walks in, holding another bunch of flowers. Princess and Annie make a hasty exit, whilst Mark walks to the kitchen, pretending not to listen.

Ross: I got these for you. Can we talk?
Lauren: That's what we're doing now...
Ross: I never meant to hurt you. I know I was a dick about Matt.
Lauren: I'm fed up with the jealousy. You're in no position to suspect people of cheating, after what happened with Annie, Christina...
Ross: I know, I know, I'll never do it again. Please take me back.

There is a moment of silence between the two, before Mark interrupts them with a wail.

Mark: Ken! Lee! Aaaah!

He runs off to his bedroom in floods of tears, whilst Lauren and Ross smile at each other.

Scene Five:
Chez Dezzy, Firewire, Harry, Ruth*Star and sarah.y2j are getting ready. Hugo, MarkWaldorf and Rizwan are also ready to go, but have a separate limousine from Hugo's brother and friends. They wave goodbye to BigSister and drive off, as "Gimme More" blasts from the back seats.

Dezzy: They grow up so fast...
BigSister: Don't, you'll start me off!

She walks back inside to help Ruth*Star with her hair, when Dezzy stops and sees Hannah across the street. He hurries back inside, shuts the door and slumps against it.

Scene Six:
In the Philippines, Ken and Lee are in a large underground lair with some fellow secretives. They are sitting in some plush sofas, whilst Ken points to a whiteboard with what appear to be plans on them.

Ken: So, we're going to return to the UK and fight the Spearsians.
Lee: And be reunited with my lover, Mark!
Ken: Uh, yeah. You do that.

There is a loud, sarcastic laugh, and the heads turn to see a man stood at the back of the room. He takes off a waistcoat and trilby, and puts away a pocket-watch. Stepping forward with the aid of a cane, he grins and shows a gold tooth.

Ken: And you are?
SirTech: You may call me Sir Tech. I'm a foreign investor and I have an interest in toppling the Spearsians.
JohnnyBB: Why's that?
SirTech: Let's just say their reign over the Music and Chat&Games forums has gotten to me. I want to establish a New World Order, where threads on menial topics and people such as Ashley Tisdale and Mariah Carey are commonplace.
Lee: But the people won't like it!
SirTech: Then we'll silence the people.

He turns and leaves, as the camera slowly zooms and fades in on his gold tooth.

Scene Seven:
At Gemma's house, she and her brother are eating dinner with some friends.

Gemma: There's more garlic bread here if anyone wants it.
Zee: So yeah, I heard from Sia the other day and she said she's currently in Italy.
Matt: Oh, wow!
Brona: I'm glad the whole...incident...is over now.
Doug: Same. Ever since Fom and the School, TiBB Town's been a very quiet place. And I'm not complaining.
Matt: So when you two going to get it together?
Brona: What?
Matt: You and Doug.
Brona: I've just buried my husband...

The air turns hostile, and Zee attempts to change conversation.

Zee: So who's going to Shaun's party?

Scene Eight:
As she steps out of the limousine with Firewire, Harry. and sarah.y2j, Ruth examines the surroundings. A slow song, "No Surprises" by Radiohead, is being played by the stoned DJ, Stu.

Ruth*Star: Wow, it's dead in here!

She is pushed out of the way as the song changes to Britney Spears' "If U Seek Amy".

Hugo: Move it! Sister's gotta move!
MarkWaldorf: Amen!

A few nervous girls and boys enter the dancefloor, and soon it is packed. To the side, Firewire and Harry. are talking.

Firewire: So, you going to make your move on Kornetto?
Harry.: I don't know...
Firewire: Why not? You're, like, 16 mate. Most guys our age have already done it...
Harry.: I'm not like most guys, OK!

The camera pans over to the dancefloor, where several couples are gyrating.

DamonJ: Love me! Hate me!
Rizwan: Say what you want about me!

The camera returns to Ruth*Star and sarah.y2j

Ruth*Star: Where's Conzors got to? He's not much of a date for you, is he?
Sarah.y2j: Well, he IS gay...

Scene Nine:
Outside, Conzors, Shaun and Billy are smoking.

Conzors: You haven't got anything a bit stronger, have you?
Shaun: Uh, no mate. We don't do that **** no more.
Billy: ****s you up, it does.

Conzors staggers off down a dark path, as an eruption of giggles and screams comes from the hall, and Shaun and Billy head back inside.

Closing Sequence:
As the kids dance to "Something Kinda Oooh" by Girls Aloud, the DJ, Stu, slouches in a corner. He lights up a cigarette with a match, throwing it in a bin. Smoke begins to billow from the bin, as the credits roll.
