'''Terrence:''' Oh, [[Meryl]], don't be like that! I've saved some for you! (''Laughs and looks at the camera''.) She should get her own show, that one.

(''Cut to the camera panning over Balthazar and Jeremy unconscious on the floor. Cut to Sophie backed against a wall. She moves behind the desk as Terrence pans to a nearby fruit bowl''.)

'''Terrence:''' Oh, five a day...

(''Cut to Terrence biting into a green apple. Cut to Terrence walking outside. Cut to Terrence walking down the street''.)

'''Terrence:''' Oh, by the way, um... Happy birthday, [[Lauren]]. Oh, I liked [[The Last Work: 2PM|the display]] with [[Julia|Jules]]'s [[Bill Cowan|old man]]. Oh, a girl after my own heart. See, I've-- (''Looks at the green apple in his hand and drops it''.) I got a present for you. Well, it's-it's more of a proposal. Now, you're a very, uh... You're a very attractive young lady, and I've forgiven you for [[Answers|having me set up and shot]]. I could drown in your blue eyes...

(''Terrence laughs''.)

How about you and me get together and we could get married for a few years? Then, when your looks start to fade, and you begin to sag, I can have you [[The Ceremony (ritual)|sacrificed]]. Then we can use medical science to use your blood to extend my life by forty years, I'll get a new girl with [[trait positive]] blood, and begin the process all over again! And I'll live happily ever after! And after, and after! (''Laughs''.) Well, it sounds great, doesn't it?

What does a guy have to do to get nicked in this town? What does a man have to do to get some attention 'round here? I did kill fucking [[Kate]] after all, didn't I? That was around here... (''Sighs''.) Memory lane. I suppose, technically... technically you could call me a serial killer. I don't know if that's the correct noun. Personally, I just think I'm a bloke who had a few people put down. I don't have any voices in my head, and I haven't got any mother-love fantasies. Well, not really.

Stay tuned. (''Winks''.)

==Notes==
*Terrence's suggestion that Meryl should have her own show is a nod to a recent fan-based suggestion to extend the KateModern show with a spin-off centered around her character, named Meryl Modern.
*Terrance's wardrobe and allusions to murders may be a reference to the movie, American Psycho.

(''Taylor and Daniel are sitting in backseat of a car.'')

'''Taylor:''' That was really mature.

'''Daniel:''' They're both mean, I don't know why we ever came out here. Back to the initial topic, how did you even find [[Jules|Julie's]] house?

'''Taylor:''' I employed my wily powers of deduction.

(''The camera pans to Sarah in the front seat.'')

'''Sarah:''' You'll appreciate this, she, a--

'''Daniel:''' Um, yeah, wasn't talking to you. (''to Taylor'') How'd you do it?

'''Taylor:''' 2005 Zavalla All-Star Roster. It has phone numbers, but it doesn't have any addresses, so...

'''Daniel:''' Wait, wait, wait. How would you even get the addresses?

'''Taylor:''' Something a lot of people don't know is that water and power and the gas companies still use, uh, phone numbers to track billing. They're also all, like public utility, so...

'''Daniel:''' Really?

'''Taylor:''' ...all their websites are archaic.

'''Daniel:''' (''to the camera'') She's S-M-R-T. (''to Taylor'') You hacked in? Oh...

'''Taylor:''' Well, hacking implies that there was some effort involved.

'''Daniel:''' (''whispering to the camera'') I'm gonna marry this girl.

'''Sarah:''' You know, I'm smart too. I can tie a cherry stem in a knot just using my tongue.

(''The camera shows Jonas and Bree outside the car.'')

'''Sarah:''' Well, what do we have here? They make out all the time, don't they?

'''Daniel:''' What? No. No, why, why is everything about sex with you?

'''Sarah:''' Don't be such a prude. I'm just saying, they look like they can't keep their hands off each other, it's obvious.

'''Daniel:''' We're all friends. Just friends.

(''Music plays and footage of a house and fence are seen.'')

'''Jonas:''' I think you should go over there.

'''Daniel:''' What, du--no, you go over there.

'''Jonas:''' I'm not going over there.

'''Daniel:''' That thing's the size of a fricking tank! You don't want me to get eaten!

'''Jonas:''' I'm not good with dogs. You're a beast, right? You should have like some kind of connection?

'''Daniel:''' What?

'''Jonas:''' I think I got an idea. We'll get the girls to, um, distract it, and then we'll creep around to that side door. What do you think? Up top.

'''Daniel:''' (whispering) High-five. (''high-fives Jonas'')

'''Bree:''' Brilliant idea, Jonas.

'''Daniel:''' Are you sure they even live here?

'''Taylor:''' Well, according to their water bill, yeah, this is the address.

'''Sarah:''' You guys are ridiculous. Grow a pair.

'''Daniel:''' Hey...

'''Bree:''' Since the boys are being such... manly men, it's up to us to figure this place out. What should we do?

'''Sarah:''' Knock, I guess.

'''Taylor:''' Go through a window.

'''Bree:''' Well, who's gonna go through the window?

'''Sarah:''' You can do that. (''Cut to Sarah holding the camera'') So, we drew straws and I lost. No surprise there. I've never won anything in my life. Well, lots of grass, very interesting. Trees... paint falling off. I really don't even think anyone would actually live here. Maybe Charles Manson, late, late '60s, I don't know.

(''Cut to Sarah running with the camera.'')

'''Sarah:''' Oh my God, we got to get out of here. There's definitely somebody in there. Oh my gosh, ok, crap, crap, crap.

'''Taylor:''' (''running next to Daniel on the sidewalk'') That is definitely not where Julie lives. I don't know why it didn't work.

'''Daniel:''' Back to square one.

==Two versions==

There is some evidence that a longer original version of this video was substituted for this version. LG15 forum member [[User:Chelseyrl|Chelseyrl]] posted that the version she watched (and she started the thread on this video at the forums, so she she saw it very very early) was longer. Other forum members confirmed that the original thumbnail for this video on revver.com showed a length of 4:51, but once available on the main page of lonelygirl15.com, the video was only 2:23 in length.

Chelseyrl reported at the forum that the version she watched included the following events: ''Okay, so in the original there was something in the beginning with Sarah teasing Daniel. Daniel also had said that he would marry Taylor in about 18 yrs (or 15... I can't remember) and they both laughed. There was a lot more skateboarding stuff with Jonas and Bree. There was this whole other point with the guys on the tennis court talking about how in Texas it's legal to shoot Trespassers. The guys also had explained that the girls were going to distract the dog. There was a longer part about who was going to crawl through the window (as well as different forms of choosing). Sarah said (when running) "I don't want to get shot" The whole shaky camera, surveying the perimeter part was a little longer. The beginning of the video I saw basically, from my POV, showed Daniel being very peeved with Sarah's jokes. Daniel emphasized more that [[TAAG|BDJ]] were all "just friends". Please note, this isn't definite and to a "T". I only viewed it once, so some things might not be definite.''

==Notes==
* This video has one of the more direct discussions of [[Lonelygirl15 relationships|sexual tension]] between [[TAAG|BDJ]].
* It is speculated that Bree and Jonas may be an item since they have spent alone time together in many videos.
* Daniel's "S-M-R-T" comment was most likely a [[Pop culture references#References to Television|reference]] to the episode of The Simpsons, "Homer Goes to College." The intentional incorrect spelling of the word is also common in chatspeak on the internet, usually used to be ironic.
* Daniel's T-shirt reads "Works better than Mistletoe" above an image of a mug of [[inebriated|beer]].
* This is the first time [[Taylor]] is seen in an official video, confirming her as canon. However, her sister [[Sarah]] was introduced in the previous video, [[Crazy Emo Chick]].
* In the description, Bree spells Sarah's name incorrectly as Sara, without the "h".
* In this video Daniel wears a [[cap]].
* This is the first video where five of the main characters can be seen. [[Hope He's Not Mad]] also features five main characters, but replaces [[Bree]] with [[Spencer]].

==Transcript==
(''Daniel is standing somewhere with trees behind him and a structure overhead, addressing the camera. He is wearing a wool cap.'')

'''Daniel:''' So, I watched [[Bree]]'s latest video and...she talks about the [[The Ceremony (ritual)|ceremony]]. I don't believe her. Someone on the [[forum]]s pointed out that she still has [[bandage|gauze]] on her arm. I mean, why would she still be getting shots if the ceremony is over? It doesn't make sense. Also the way she was saying things; it sounded almost...forced.

(''cut to Daniel filming Lucy from behind some trees as she walks up some stairs to an apartment complex'')

'''Daniel:''' I followed [[Lucy|Bree's helper]] out here. This must be where she lives. (''Lucy goes inside'') (''cut to automatic garage door opening and Lucy's car coming out'') There she is! I think she's leaving. (''cut to Daniel walking up the stairs to the door'') Okay, so...I checked the directory and there's only one apartment with a 'L' for the first name and last. (''Daniel says something unintelligible as he rattles the front door knob'')

(''cut to Daniel walking around the side of the building, climbing over a locked gate and walking along the side of the building'')

'''Daniel:''' Man! Let's see... (''Daniel stops under a balcony'') This is it. This has gotta be it. How am I gonna get up there... (''Daniel spots a cylindrical object, (maybe a trash can?) and walks towards it'') Wonder if...maybe I can move this? (''Daniel struggles with the object and climbs up to the balcony'') Okay... (''Daniel opens the door and walks in, then searches the place while panning the camera around. He passes an "Absinthe Robette" poster in the hall, goes into the bedroom and looks in the closet'') I don't even know what the hell I'm doing here. (''Daniel finds a computer desk, with the computer still on'') Good.. Oh, yes... What the hell? (''the computer apparently has several browser windows open to various locations on Google maps'') Where the hell is this? (''the last map is of the area in which the ceremony took place'') What? (''on the computer desktop, there is a folder marked "10-12-06"'') What the hell? (''Daniel double-clicks the folder and finds it full of pictures, at least some of which are of him spying on the ceremony'') Oh my God... Jesus! I gotta get out of here!

(''cut to Daniel's bedroom. He is still shaken up.'')

'''Daniel:''' I made it home. Obviously... They have pictures of me. I mean... What the hell?! They've been following me. They could be following me right now. How the hell do they have pictures of me? Can't trust Bree. This is so messed up. What the hell do they want from me?

==Notes==
* When Daniel first looks at the screen, the computer displays the date Oct. 12, 2006, even though the video was supposed to take place Oct. 15.

* When Daniel looks at the photos of himself, the file says "Greg Goodfried's desktop" in the corner (see screencap [[:Image:October 12, 2006.PNG]]). [[Greg Goodfried]]'s apartment was presumably the site of the shoot.

* Breaking and entering is illegal. And it is generally not wise to shoot video of oneself breaking the law, especially if one is spying. Most spies want to keep their activities a secret, and posting a video of them on YouTube is not the best way of doing that.

* The "Absinthe Robette" poster is by Belgian artist Privat Livemont. If an original, it is worth in the neighborhood of $20,000.<ref>[http://www.absintheoriginals.com/images/Absinthe-Robette-73KB.jpg "Absinthe Robette" poster at www.absintheoriginals.com]</ref>

*Absinthe Robette is a drink that contains a hallucinogen.<ref>{{wikipedia|Absinthe|Wikipedia article on Absinthe}}</ref><ref>{{wikipedia|Hallucinogen|Wikipedia article on hallucinogens.}}</ref>

* [[Aleister Crowley]] once wrote an essay on absinthe called "Absinthe: The Green Goddess".<ref>[http://www.oxygenee.com/Crowley-Green-Goddess.pdf Aleister Crowley's essay "Absinthe: The Green Goddess" at www.oxygenee.com].</ref>

* We learn that in addition to having an L in her first name, Lucy's last name also begins with an L.

* The [[map locations|Google maps locations]] on Lucy's computer have been identified as:

==Transcript==
'''Bree:''' Okay, so, I thought I'd tell you a story about [[Bree's parents|my parents]].

When my dad was 23 he got a fellowship to study medicine at the University of Oxford. My mom, who was two years younger, was studying in Edinburgh, which is in [[Scotland]].

So my mom used to take the train down to London on the long weekends because she was doing her dissertation on {{wikipedia|Johann_Weyer|Johann Weyer}}. She would study at the British Museum and sometimes go and see plays. One day she went to see [[Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead]], which is about two small characters in Hamlet, but in this play they’re the main characters. I know this is complicated but bear with me, it’s pretty much the coolest story ever.

So when the intermission came my mom went out to the lobby, and she overheard these two boys arguing. They were arguing about [[Free will]] vs. Determinism which is apparently the theme of the play. They were just trying to sound smart.

One of the boys was saying that because the two characters die in the end of Hamlet that nothing they do matters. That was my dad. My mom listened for a few minutes and decided that pretty much everything my dad was saying was wrong. So she thought it was time to open up a good-ol’ fashioned can of whoop—

So she tapped him on the shoulder and she said that the message of the play was that these sad little characters had spent their lives arguing about the inevitability of their fate instead of actually doing something about it. And she said that if these boys didn’t watch out, they would be just like them.

My dad was smitten… like a kitten. So when the play ended he was waiting for her by the exit. Sparks flew… doves cried… the sun set… the wind blew… oh my gosh.

They spent the rest of the day together and later my dad walked her to her train. They couldn’t see each other very often because my mom was in Edinburgh. So they started writing letters. And that’s about it. I have a really big day, so I should probably go get ready. I hope you enjoyed the story…

(''The camera pans along a white wall. A sign shows that it is a men's restroom. Daniel enters. Cut to Daniel in front of what appears to be bathroom tiles.'')

'''Daniel:''' I don't know where to start. The Order; somehow they figured out where we were, and we all got separated. Some sort of smoke bomb went off and they swooped in like vultures. I'm not exactly sure what happened... or who made it out. But I'm heading back to LA. I've been running for about a day now, and maybe I'm getting paranoid but... I swear there's a [[Shadow]] following me. And all I have to go on is this footage I filmed earlier.

(''Fade to several blurred shots of disco lights. Cut to Daniel walking through the cabin in an white suit.'')

'''Daniel:''' Good evening, ladies and gents, and welcome to the 2008 LG15 Prom! Or should I say, the 1988? (''Puts on a pair of striped sunglasses''.) Oh, yeah! We have an awesome playlist for you today, including Duran Duran, Flock of Seagulls, and the one and only Men at Work. (''Sings''.) "I come from a land down under"... Yeah, you know the song. Don't play like you don't.

Check it out. (''Turns the camera to the fireplace showing a banner reading "WELCOME TO OUR TOTALLY RAD PROM" covered in balloons''.) We made banners, we've got balloons, we've got lights. And if you look out here... (''Pans to the porch, where there is a punch bowl and deck furniture''.) We've got the ambiance in the outdoors. Full of romance. (''Turns the camera on himself''.) It's awesome. Oh, check this out.

(''Zooms in to a nearby table on which is a picture of the girls shopping and three flip cameras Daniel grabs one''.)

Just so you all don't feel left out, I went out and bought everyone... (''Turns the camera on himself, holding up the camera''.) ...brand new flip cams. So we can all film tonight. I've got one, Emma's got one... It's gonna be a lot of fun. Alright. Let's go get some punch, huh?

(''Daniel goes out on the porch. Emma yells at him from inside the cabin''.)

'''Emma:''' Daniel, will you get in here? Your dates are ready to dance!

'''Daniel:''' Oh no. Looks like I gotta bust the move. Let's do it.

(''Cut to a table with a bowl of M&Ms and various '80s accessories. Daniel takes and M&M and eats it. He pans to Emma and Gina as they dance, showing their feet. He pans up to Jennie and Jonas dancing. He pans back to Gina and pans down, showing her outfit. She and Emma dance''.)

'''Emma:''' Check this out, this is the running man.

'''Daniel:''' Whoah!

'''Emma:''' That's right, I practiced that.

(''Daniel pans to Sarah and Carl sitting on the couch. Carl leans in to Sarah, smiling at the camera. Sarah rolls her eyes. Daniel pans back to Gina. She dances as Daniel slowly backs away''.)

'''Gina:''' Um, excuse me, where do you think you're going?

'''Daniel:''' Um... Well, I have Bandanya which means I can't dance for more than 3 songs in a row, so...

'''Gina:''' Okay.

'''Daniel:''' Bye-bye!

'''Emma:''' No-no-no-no-no! (''Takes off her sunglasses''.) Excuse me! You're supposed to show us your Safety Dance. Yeah.

'''Gina:''' Yeah, let's see it!

'''Emma:''' Now!

'''Gina:''' Let's see it! Come on!

(''Daniel ducks into the frame and dances. Everyone laughs''.)

'''Emma:''' Alright. Okay, you are too good at that.

'''Daniel:''' Whoo!

'''Jonas:''' Yeah! (''Daniel turns the camera toward Jonas and Jennie''.) That's what I'm talking about. (''Claps''.)

(''Cut to the disco light ball. Jonas does the robot'')

'''Daniel:''' Dude, who knew you were such a dancer, J?

(''Everyone laughs''.)

'''Jennie:''' That's my man!

(''Jonas continues dancing and Jennie starts dancing close to him. Daniel pans to Sarah on the porch''.)

'''Daniel:''' Let's not get freaky!

'''Gina:''' No way!

(''Everyone laughs as Sarah secretly pours alcohol from a flask into the punch bowl''.)

'''Daniel:''' Oh. Now why does that not surprise me?

(''Sarah walks slowly away from the punch bowl, licking her fingers, and motions for Daniel to keep quiet. Emma jumps in front of the camera''.)

'''Emma:''' Hmm, interesting! You know, I wonder what makes you more thirsty: the punch... or Sarah?

'''Daniel:''' Um, how 'bout neither? Besides, I've already got the best-looking prom dates!

'''Jonas:''' Daniel!

(''Emma squeaks as Daniel pans to Jennie and Jonas in the kitchen''.)

'''Daniel:''' Dude, I wasn't- I wasn't hitting on her, I promise.

'''Jonas:''' No. Not tha- No, no. Not that. Come here, you need to check this out.

(''Daniel walks into the kitchen, where Jennie and Jonas are hovering over her laptop''.)

'''Jonas:''' There's been an update on [[Edward Salinas|Salinas]]'s site.

'''Daniel:''' Why are you still checking it?

'''Jennie:''' He just gave a speech.

'''Jonas:''' Yeah, and after his speech, he thanked The Armenian Americans of Glendale for tonight's donation.

'''Emma:''' "Tonight's donation"? What does that mean? That sounds kind of weird. (''Leans over Jennie''.)

'''Jennie:''' The Armenian Americans of Glendale... that's TAAG. Is he talking about us?

'''Daniel:''' It could be, but there's no way he could know where we are, uh... We covered our tracks. And you said he's out of town, fundraising... In DC, right?

'''Jennie:''' Yeah, that's what [[Ross Thompson|Thompson]] said on his last voicemail.

'''Jonas:''' Okay, listen. I don't want this to ruin our night or anything, but I think we should be ''really'' careful here. Alright, man? I'm-I'm serious.

'''Daniel:''' Alright. I'll tell Sarah.

(''Cut to Daniel with his hand on Sarah's waist on the porch. She is holding a white flip cam''.)

'''Sarah:''' So these things are pretty cool.

'''Daniel:''' I know, right? It's even smaller than the other one they have.

'''Sarah:''' So... why are you filming me? (''Grins''.)

'''Daniel:''' 'Cause, um... (''Rubs Sarah's cheek''.) I just wanna show the world how beautiful you are.

'''Sarah:''' Wow... ''You''. Being all flirty and bold... You do know I'm Carl's date, right?

'''Daniel:''' Sure, but... I'm stealing his date.

(''A rustling noise is heard and Daniel looks over the edge of the porch''.)

'''Daniel:''' Must have been, like, an animal or something.

'''Sarah:''' Yeah, or Jason Voorhees.

'''Emma:''' (''Jumping from behind Daniel''.) GOTCHA!

(''Emma and Sarah laugh as Emma plays with two branches of leaves''.)

'''Daniel:''' That was not funny.

'''Sarah:''' Oh-ho, it was kinda funny.

'''Emma:''' Yeah, it was.

(''Emma turns to leave, laughing. Cut to Sarah and Carl in front of the fireplace. Sarah is holding an upside-down cup, which she has apparently spilled on him''.)

'''Sarah:''' Oh my god, I'm sorry. Carl, I'm so- (''Carl pushes Sarah away''.)

'''Daniel:''' Hey, is everything okay?

(''Carl puts his arm out which reveals a cell phone.'')

'''Carl:''' Yeah, I was just.. trying to send an e-mail. Alright, look, I'm sorry if I u-upset you, okay, Sarah.

'''Daniel:''' Listen, there are towels in the bathroom.

'''Carl:''' I'll be right back. Alright.

(''Carl leaves behind Sarah to go to the bathroom. She glares as he leaves''.)

'''Daniel:''' Are you okay?

'''Sarah:''' Yeah. (''Shakes her head''.) Maybe... Maybe I shouldn't have even asked him to come here. Do, uh... you wanna get some punch with me?

(''Cut to Sarah and Daniel making out passionately. Daniel lifts Sarah on to the bed, turning the camera to look into the hallway. Carl opens the front door as Lucy points her gun into the room. Carl exits and Lucy follows, closing the door behind her. Cut to Daniel in the bathroom''.)

'''Daniel:''' Uh, yeah, Sarah... I'm sorry. Uh, the camera was still recording, I ju- I had to upload it. But anyways... so they stormed the cabin and we all scattered. And I made it out to the woods, and I waited there until dawn. And when I came back, the smoke was gone, no one was there, and I mean, it looked like no one had been there in the first place. And that's when I saw the Shadow. And I just turned and I r-

(''A noise is heard off-camera. Daniel turns toward it''.)

'''Daniel:''' I ran. (''Turns to the camera''.) Anyways... I tried calling everybody else, but-but nobody's answering. And I'm not sure how much longer I'm gonna have battery left for, but I ''need'' to keep moving. So can anybody out there ''please'' try to get in contact with them on [[LG15.com]]? I need to see their footage. I need to figure out what happened.

(''Running footsteps are heard as Daniel lowers the camera''.)

'''Daniel:''' [[Four-letter words|Shit]].

==Notes==
*Despite Daniel listing several popular 80's artists, none of them are actually played throughout the four-part Prom videos.
*This video makes multiple references to the group being nicknamed [[TAAG]], which is usually taboo, since it was a term coined by ARG character, [[Tachyon]], who is no longer a part of the series. The reference is especially interesting because it contains the word "Glendale" in it, which may or may not be a veiled reference to Tachyon's creator, [[Glenn Rubenstein]].
*Jason Voorhees, whom Sarah mentions as a possible suspect for the noise heard on the porch, is the main character from the {{wikipedia|Friday_the_13th_(franchise)|Friday the 13th film series}}.
*The city of Glendale, California is widely known around the Los Angeles area for having a very large Armenian population.

==Transcript==
'''Emma:''' Okay. Hi. We need to settle this prom date situation ASAP, because it has been musical chairs in terms of who's taking who, and it's driving me crazy. (''Moves toward the camera and crosses her eyes''.) But it has to end in a few hours because prom is tonight.

(''Cut to Daniel sitting on the couch reading a magazine''.)

'''Emma:''' Hey.

'''Daniel:''' Hey, what's up, how're you? (''Throws the magazine behind the couch. Emma laughs''.) Hi.

'''Emma:''' What're you, looking for tips on the big night?

'''Daniel:''' What? What?

'''Emma:''' Huh?

'''Daniel:''' (''Moves closer to the camera''.) What is this, like interrogation time, or something?

'''Emma:''' Um, yeah. It's my prom.

'''Daniel:''' Oh...

'''Emma:''' Yeah.

'''Daniel:''' ...your prom.

'''Emma:''' Yeah.

'''Daniel:''' Okay.

'''Emma:''' I want a no-holds-barred---

'''Daniel:''' (''Nods''.) Do ya?

'''Emma:''' ---real world confessional booth breakdown.

'''Daniel:''' (''Nods''.) Of course you do. Yeah, totally. (''Grins''.)

'''Emma:''' Minus the skankitude, thank you.

'''Daniel:''' Ah. Okay. (''Emma laughs''.) Well, if you really wanna know...

'''Emma:''' Yeah?

'''Daniel:''' (''Looks around''.) I'm going stag.

'''Emma:''' Really?

'''Daniel:''' Yeah.

'''Emma:''' Eh, that's not what I heard.

'''Daniel:''' What do you mean that's not what you heard?

'''Emma:''' I don't know.

(''Cut to Jonas sitting on the porch.'')

'''Jonas:''' Man, I can't believe we're doing this.

'''Daniel:''' (''Laughs''.) I know.

'''Jonas:''' You know, I didn't even go to my own prom.

'''Daniel:''' Uh, me neither.

(''Daniel puts the camera down on a table and sits next to Jonas''.)

'''Jonas:''' So, uh, tell me. Who's the lucky lady gonna be?

'''Daniel:''' (''Laughs''.) The lucky lady is, uh... Well, I was gonna ask Sarah. (''Nods''.)

'''Jonas:''' (''Scoffs''.) Sarah? (''Daniel shrugs as Jonas laughs''.) Really?

'''Daniel:''' What? (''Jonas laughs''.) Yeah.

'''Jonas:''' No, well, you know, good luck with that.

'''Daniel:''' (''Laughs''.) Whatever.

(''Cut to Daniel on the couch.'')

'''Daniel:''' Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Who told you about that?

'''Emma:''' Let's just say someone's been a little too lax about switching out new tapes?

'''Daniel:''' Aww, yeah, I wonder who that could've been? I think, uh...

'''Emma:''' Uh-huh.

'''Daniel:''' ...me? Maybe? Just poss-- yeah? (''Covers his face''.) ''[[Four-letter words|Shit]].''

'''Emma:''' You left yesterday's footage in the camera.

'''Daniel:''' Yeah, I did. Awesome.

'''Emma:''' Nice one. (''Turns the camera on herself''.)

'''Daniel:''' That's great.

'''Emma:''' Love's a bitch, Duck. Love is a bitch. (''Turns the camera on Daniel''.) Now go get her.

'''Daniel:''' What, now?

(''Cut to Emma filming from around the corner as Sarah comes down the stairs.'')

'''Daniel:''' Hey, Sarah.

'''Sarah:''' Yup?

'''Daniel:''' Hey, come here.

'''Sarah:''' (''Stops and turns around''.) What?

'''Daniel:''' Sit down, sit down. Just- yeah. Have a seat.

(''Daniel and Sarah sit at the bottom of the stairs.'')

'''Daniel:''' Um, you going to this prom thing?

'''Sarah:''' Yeah, I kinda have to.

'''Daniel:''' Yeah?

'''Sarah:''' Yeah.

'''Daniel:''' Okay, cool, 'cause, uh... Look. (''Laughs awkwardly''.) Sarah, I know that... Recently, you and I have had our ups and downs. And- and I know you have strong feelings for [[Carl]], but, um, here I go, huh? I mean, I'd be a fool not to. (''Sighs''.) Listen, I- uh, it's not like, you know, I'm gonna get another get another chance at this... I mean, it's never gonna happen again, so... What I mean to say is... Sarah, will you go to prom with me?

'''Sarah:''' (''Sighs''.) Um... Daniel, I already asked Carl...

'''Daniel:''' Done, okay?

'''Sarah:''' Yeah. And um, and he's- he's driving all the way up here.

'''Daniel:''' Yeah. It's-- No, you know, it's totally, just- no worries.

'''Sarah:''' You know-- I mean, it's just--

'''Daniel:''' It's cool, it's cool. It's-- There's no- no big deal. I mean, I... (''Puts his hand on Sarah's shoulder''.) I wasn't serious anyway.

(''Cut to Sarah sitting in a leather chair''.)

'''Emma:''' So you're done with Daniel, then?

'''Sarah:''' No! It- it's not that. It's- I didn't think he was gonna ask me. You know, it's-- (''Sighs''.) I know he's been really nice to me lately, but I-I thought that was because we were getting back on the friend bandwagon.

'''Emma:''' Well, yeah, but ''Carl'' over Daniel? (''Sarah shakes her head''.) I mean, don't get me wrong, I do like the guy, it's just... I don't know, it's like choosing ''Biff'' over Marty McFly, you know?

'''Sarah:''' Well then, why don't you go with Daniel?

'''Emma:''' Uh... That may be a problem?

(''Cut to Daniel talking to Jonas on the porch''.)

'''Daniel:''' So? You gonna ask Jennie, or what?

'''Jonas:''' You know what? No. Actually I think I'm gonna ask Emma. You know, it'd be a nice big brother gesture to do, don't you think?

'''Daniel:''' Right, but, uh... I mean, if Sarah says "no", I...

'''Jonas:''' Yeah?

'''Daniel:''' I was kinda thinkin' that...

'''Jonas:''' What?

'''Daniel:''' ...maybe ''I'' could ask Emma, you know. If that's cool with you.

'''Jonas:''' No.

'''Daniel:''' Not cool with you...?

'''Jonas:''' No. No way, man.

'''Daniel:''' Okay. (''Shrugs to the camera''.)

'''Jonas:''' Listen to me, and listen to me good: you're ''not'' gonna date my sister.

'''Emma:''' Uh, excuse me?

'''Daniel:''' Oh- oh, God. (''Looks away''.)

'''Emma:''' What was that? (''Sits next to Jonas''.)

(''Cut to Jonas sitting in the leather chair''.)

'''Emma:''' Jonas, why are you acting like this?

'''Jonas:''' Because it's my job to be overprotective of you.

'''Emma:''' Yeah, but it's not like anything would happen. I mean, Daniel's sweet, it's just I'm not really into him like that.

'''Jonas:''' (''Skeptical''.) Mmm...

'''Emma:''' (''Imitates Jonas''.) Mmm. Besides, you ''can't'' take me.

'''Jonas:''' (''Laughs''.) Well, why not? I think it would be kinda cool. Right?

'''Emma:''' It didn't seem so "cool" with your girlfriend yesterday.

(''Cut to Jonas sitting on the porch''.)

'''Jennie:''' Uh, why is Daniel afraid of you? (''Sits next to Jonas''.)

'''Jonas:''' Huh?

'''Jennie:''' Yeah.

'''Jonas:''' Oh! Oh, 'cause I told him I didn't want Emma going to the prom with him. (''They both laugh''.)

'''Jennie:''' Speaking of which, uh, when're you gonna get around to asking me?

'''Jonas:''' Oh, well, actually I was gonna ask Emma.

(''Jennie laughs''.)

'''Jennie:''' What? I don't think so.

'''Jonas:''' Oh, Jennie, tell me you're not taking this prom thing seriously. (''Laughs''.)

'''Jennie:''' Yes, I am! (''Laughs as Jonas groans''.) What? You can't take your sister, you have to take the girl you've been fooling around with for the last few months. (''Giggles as Jonas puts his arm around her''.) Who do you think you are, Jake Ryan?

(''Jonas and Jennie laugh as he hugs her. Cut to Jennie sitting in the leather chair''.)

'''Jennie:''' Well, it was the sweetest thing when he asked me.

'''Emma:''' Um... right.

'''Jennie:''' (''Giggles''.) Come on! (''They both laugh''.) No, I am seriously excited for prom. I mean, you know, slow dancing... pressing your bodies together--

'''Emma:''' Okay, enough! Thank you.

'''Jennie:''' (''Laughing''.) Hey! (''Emma laughs''.) Who're you going with?

(''Cut to Emma walking to Daniel's room, where he is lying on the bed.'')

'''Emma:''' Daniel?

'''Daniel:''' (''Looks at the camera''.) Oh, hey.

'''Emma:''' Hi.

'''Daniel:''' (''Sits up''.) What's up?

'''Emma:''' Um, I was, um... I was wondering... Uh... Alright, would you like to go to prom with me?

'''Daniel:''' (''Laughs''.) Uh, ye- yeah, yeah!

'''Emma:''' Yeah?

'''Daniel:''' Yeah, why not? A-as-as long as you don't tell Jonas, but--

'''Gina:''' What? (The camera whips back to show Gina entering''.) Really? You used to flirt with me, and now you have the nerve ''not'' to ask me to prom.

'''Daniel:''' (''Laughs''.) Uh, it's-- (''Emma laughs''.)

'''Gina:''' Unbelievable.

'''Daniel:''' No, no, I-- uh, I jus-j-- oh God. (''Leaves''.)

'''Gina:''' You're so caught.

'''Daniel:''' Oh no!

(''Emma and Gina laugh as Daniel dashes out of the room. Cut to Gina, biting her nails, sitting in the leather chair''.)

'''Emma:''' So, how do you feel about this whole... date situation? (''Laughs''.)

'''Gina:''' (''Smiles, shaking her head''.) I don't know. (''Sighs''.) I've never been asked to a dance before, so... I'd kind of like to know what it's like.

'''Emma:''' Yeah, me too.

'''Gina:''' Yeah. (''Emma laughs''.) It's so weird, the anxiety and all the anticipation.

'''Emma:''' Mm-hmm.

'''Gina:''' Is it normal?

'''Emma:''' I don't know.

'''Gina:''' (''Laughs''.) Because of it is... Phew! High school must've been a complete nightmare.

'''Emma:''' (''Laughs''.) Yeah, I know.

(''Cut to Daniel sitting on the couch with Emma and Gina sitting nearby''.)

'''Daniel:''' Look, Emma, Gina. I don't want any trouble. I... I don't know why, but finding a date to this thing should ''not'' be harder than fighting a [[the Order|secret cult]] bent on world domination, but... It is. I suck at this. (''Emma zooms out as Gina sits on the arm rest next to Daniel''.) Clearly. So... (''Looks at Gina''.) I'm sorry, but--

'''Gina:''' Daniel?

'''Daniel:''' Yeah?

'''Gina:''' Will you go to prom with us?

'''Daniel:''' "Us"?

'''Gina:''' Mm-hmm.

(''Emma gets up and walks over as Gina hops onto the couch.'')

'''Emma:''' Yup. Having, not one, but ''two''-- (''Daniel laughs as Emma sits on the other side of him''.) --awesome, hot dates is probably the best way to make Sarah jealous. (''Daniel laughs and Emma nods at the camera''.)

'''Gina:''' Yup.

'''Emma:''' Yeah?

'''Gina:''' Mm-hmm.

'''Daniel:''' (''Laughs''.) Okay, well...

'''Emma:''' Yeah?

'''Daniel:''' Yeah! (''Gina and Emma laugh''.)

'''Emma:''' (''Lowers the camera''.) Awesome.

(''Cut to Emma lying on her bed.'')

'''Emma:''' Okay, so there you have it. Sarah is taking Carl, Jonas is taking Jennie, and Gina and yours truly will be escorting Daniel. (''Moves the camera closer''.) I have this feeling that we are going to have the most memorable night of our lives. (''Grins excitedly''.)
