And now, here's my first MLaaTR fan-fic, before I went to persue the WRC story-arc. Enjoy!

Pop Goes Pierrot
by Anthony "A-Log" LoGatto
My First "My Life as a Teenage Robot" fan-fic!
INT. Tremorton High School, Hallways
(the show opens with Global Response Unit XJ-9, aka Jenny, and her best friend Brad, walking down the school halls. As usual, Jenny is worried about being a teenager since she also has to stop crime.)
Jenny: (uncontently) *sigh*
Brad: What's eating you now, Jenny?
Jenny: Brad, didn't you hear the rumors?
Brad: What rumors?
Jenny: Well, according to my student sensory system, I heard that there's going to be a new student coming to our school today.
Brad: (fumbles into his locker) Pfft. That's not a shocker.
Jenny: But this new kid is a foreign exchange student... (pause) he's from France.
(Brad drops his book when Jenny mentions where the new kid is from)
Brad: Woah. He's from France?
Jenny: That's all I know. The thing is, I don't what I'm suppose to do!
Brad: Jen-meister, it's easy. (closes his locker) If you have experiance in being a new kid yourself, you can tell him what it's like here in school.
Jenny: Are you sure, Brad? What if I screw this up for him?
Brad: Relax, Jenny. It's not like he's a spy trying to collect information on our country. At least you know what to do with him.
Jenny: (annoyed) I know.
(they walk towards their first class: History. As we see the classmates [including Jenny and Brad], we cut to their History teacher. She is dressed in a black shirt under a gray work suit, has brown hair, and speaks in a Greek accent.)
History Teacher: Good morning, class. Before we start, we have a new student coming into our homeroom: a foreign exchange student from France.
(as she says this, we cut to Brit and Tiff, the Krust Cousins. From their look, they don't like where the new kid is from.)
Tiff: (aside) Yo, Brit. Since when did we invite a French frog into an American school? They were too chicken to help us in the war!
Brit: (aside) I didn't get the message, either, Tiff. But judging from where he's from, I'm sure he's in for quite a surprise.
(Brit snickers alongside her "cousin". Cut back to the History teacher.)
History Teacher: Now, I know how hard it is to be the new student, but let's all try to make him comfortable in Tremorton High. (opens the door) Okay, you can come in now.
(the new student then walks in. Jenny and Brad goes wide-eyed, as does Brit and Tiff, as they see the new student. The new student is dressed up like a circus clown, complete with big red shoes, rainbow clown outfit, white clown make-up w/ a red star on his right eye, and a conical clown hat. Oh, and a big red nose and green clown hair.)
History Teacher: Kids, say hello to Pierrot-1, also known as Pierre Pierrot. Like Ms. XJ-9, he's also a robot. (to Pierre) Can you explain yourself to the class, Pierre?
Pierre: Oui. (opens a conpartment in his body and changes his Language Modual from French to English) I come from France, where, if you have watched the news in recent months, your country and mine are at each other's throats about the Iraq War. Even though my father never understood it all, I am assigned on a peace-keeping mission so that our country can be friends again.
(notices the entire class is staring at him due to his clownish appearance.)
Pierre: *sigh* And of course, I am fully aware that I'm designed as a pierrot, which is French for 'clown'. You see, my father had a love of clowns as a child, and has loved me as a son since. (changes the subject) But that's not important. What is important, is that I hope my mission goes as planned. Thank you. (walks over to his desk. Every time he walks, his shoes makes a silly squeeking noise. Cut to Jenny and Brad.)
Jenny: (aside/excited) This is so cool! Not only is the new kid from France, but he's also a robot! (beaming) Finally, another robot to make pals with!
(Brad just rolls his eyes. Really, he was going to like Pierre, but something tells us differently. Cut to the Krust Cousins.)
Tiff: (exasperated) What?! Not only do we have a Frenchie, but he's also a robot?! (leans back on her chair) Oh, man, this is going to reek!
Brit: Don't be too sure, Tiff dear. We now have two titainium twerps to mess around with! (smiles wickedly)
CUT TO: Cafeteria, Afternoon
(all the students of Tremerton High are having their lunch. Cut to Jenny and Brad's table, where they're having their lunch by themselves. As they are eating, Jenny then notices Pierre, who is trying to find a spot to sit and eat. She sees him get rejected by the other students. Feeling sorry for him, Jenny stands up and walks over to Pierre.)
Jenny: Hey Pierre.
Pierre: Hm?
Jenny: Um, my name is Jenny. I am here to welcome you to our school.
Pierre: Really? (Jenny nods, smiling) Well, you have got to be the first person to say "hi" to me.
Jenny: Why?
Pierre: Well, because of my appearance, they think I'm a clown; and not in the funny, ha-ha way.
Jenny: Relax, Pierre. I felt that way too when I first came here, but I'm better now. I'm still working on being popular, but I'm still trying. Would you like to sit with me and my friend, Brad?
Pierre: Sure.
(Pierre walks with Jenny to her table. Pan towards the popular table, which includes the Krust Cousins and their friends. They just saw Pierre with Jenny.)
Tiff: Looks like that clown has made friends with that robot girl. (to Brit) I thought you had an idea to mess him up.
Brit: Relax, Tiff. As soon as the time is right, we'll give that automatic clown mechanism one big nudge... (gestures as if pushing someone) over the edge! (laughs maniacly along with her cousin)
(switch to Jenny and Brad's table. Jenny brings Pierre to the table as Brad is eating.)
Jenny: Hey, Brad. I'd like you to meet Pierre Pierrot. You know, from class?
Brad: Of course I do. (to Pierre) So Pierre, you came from France on a peace keeping mission?
Pierre: That I did, oui.
Brad: Cool. But aren't you a little bit similar to Jenny?
Pierre: What do you mean?
Brad: Well, aren't you a superhero?
Pierre: (unsure) Well, not really.
(all of a sudden, a beeping noise is heard on his clown hat. It then opens to release a television screen out of his hat. It then turns on to reveal a burly man with a white mustache and lab coat.)
Scientist: (in cheesy French accent) Pierrot-1, this is your father, Prof. Fromage, speaking!
Pierre: (annoyed) Poppa, why did you have to call me now? And the name's Pierre!
Prof. Fromage/Scientist: Whatever. There has been a robbery at the First National Bank in Tremorton, and I need you to stop them! Zat iz an order!
Pierre: (sullen) Yes, Poppa. Over and out. (cuts the transmission off)
(Jenny and Brad are surprised to hear Pierre's true occupation)
Jenny: You're a super hero?
Pierre: In short, yes. But I have no time to explain!
(he opens up his rocket pack, and he zooms right out of the lunchroom. Jenny still looks on in amazement)
Brad: Um, Jenny? Yoo-hoo! Jenny! (snaps his fingers in front of her face, and she snaps out of her trance.)
Jenny: Did you see that?
Brad: Yeah, but-
Jenny: (overjoyed) Finally! Another superhero robot in our school! I've got to check this out! (opens up her own jetpack, and zooms out the window. Brit and Tiff watch on, as they too are shocked to find out that the new student is a superhero.)
Tiff: Oh, great! Now that Frenchie's a superhero! That's another superbot we have to contend with!
Brit: Hold it, Tiff. Remember, I am still devising a plan to humiliate that robotic bozo in his own game. Come on, let's see what he's up to.
(she and Tiff run out of the cafeteria, unnoticed as they try to figure out a way to humiliate Pierre.)
CUT TO: Tremorton, City Streets, Afternoon
(we see people running away, as there is a bank robbery in process. Cut to the bank, where we see the smaller robber holding the teller up at gunpoint.)
Small Robber: (demanding) Okay, geek! Put all the money into the bag, or else you'll be sleeping in dirt!
Teller: (desperate to live/throws the money into the bag) Yes, sir! Anything you want, sir!
(as the teller is filling up the bag, the second, bigger robber comes back holding a bigger bag stuffed with money.)
Bigger Robber: Hey, boss! I got some more loot from the safe!
Smaller Robber: Excellent! (closes the bag) And the best part is, that annoying robot girl isn't even here to stop us!
: (off-screen) May be so! But I'm here!
(the two robbers exchange shocked glances to each other, knowing that Jenny may have caught them in time. But the robot figure zooming into the bank is not Jenny, but Pierre. He comes to a stop and faces the two confused robbers.)
Smaller Robber: Hey, what's this? Who the heck is this clown?
Bigger Robber: Duh, maybe he comes from that circus in town?
Pierre: That as it may be! But I am Pierrot-1, also known as Pierre Pierrot! I am the robotic defender of France! And I-
Bigger Robber: Wait a minute! He's from France?!
Smaller Robber: (to his comrade) Well don't just stand there, man! Shoot the frog down!
(he and his fellow robber take their guns out and proceed to shoot at Pierre. Amazingly, the bullets bounce off him, and didn't make a scratch.)
Pierre: (annoyed) Why must these American robbers try to do it the hard way?
(Pierre then goes into his wrist pocket and takes out four juggling balls and proceeds to juggle them. The robbers stop shooting and look on, dumbfounded.)
Bigger Robber: Hey, he's juggling!
Smaller Robber: How can he hurt us while juggling those stupid balls?
(Pierre just smiles, and he throws two of the juggling balls and they zoom towards the two robbers. When it lands on them, the balls release a laughing gas onto the robbers, and they laugh their butts off. As they laugh like crazy, Pierre throws the remaining two juggling balls, and throws them to the laughing robbers. Just before it lands on them, each ball released a net, capturing their respective robber. Pierre then stands next to the robbers, and he bows to the citizens as they applaude his work.)
Pierre: Wow. I've never thought that catching criminals would be so much easy in this country!
(all of a sudden, Jenny zooms into the bank, and lands next to Pierre.)
Jenny: (amazed) Wow, Pierre! That was amazing!
(Pierre turns to see Jenny beside him)
Pierre: (surprised) Oh, Jenny! (nervous) Well, um, it is amazing, I guess.
Jenny: Well, I wished I would've helped you out. Besides, I'm not sure if you're still new to American crime-fighting.
Pierre: That's all right. Anyway, (cuts to the still laughing bank robbers as being they are being carted away by the police) those robbers were really no hassle.
(cut back to Jenny and Pierre)
Jenny: That's okay. I just hope that I can- (she is then interuppted as her chest slides open as a transmission screen sets itself up. When it is fully completed, Mrs. Wakeman appears on screen.)
Mrs. Wakeman: (stern) XJ-9! Where have you been?! I have been calling you for over five minutes! What took you so long?!
Jenny: Sorry mom, but I just had to check out my new friend.
Mrs. Wakeman: This is no time for making new comrades,-
Jenny: (correcting her mother) That's "friends", mom!
Mrs. Wakeman: Whatever! There is a- (she then glances towards her right, and notices Pierre. The screen then moves to show herself to Pierre.) Oh? Who is this young robotic specimen?
Pierre: Oh, bonjour, Madamoiselle Wakeman. I am Pierre Pierrot, robotic defender of France.
Mrs. Wakeman: (to herself) Pierrot... Pierrot... Pier- (quickly remembers something about Pierre) Oh yes! You must be Pierrot-1, the first line of Pierrot robots from my old friend, Bernard Fromage!
Pierre: (bashful) Well, that I am...
Mrs. Wakeman: Well, I'm very glad that I have an oppertunity to meet you, Pierre.
Jenny: (annoyed) Mom, can we get back to me for a moment?
Mrs. Wakeman: Huh? Oh yes, right! (turns the screen back to Jenny) There has been a mudslide in western California. I think you should let Pierre come along and assist you on your mission.
Jenny: Okay, mom.
Mrs. Wakeman: And don't forget to do your homework when you come back, dear. Toodles! (the screen shuts off, and goes back into Jenny's chest)
Pierre: Wow. Your mom seems to be... um... what's the word...?
Jenny: No time for that! I've got to stop that mudslide; and you're helping! (zooms off into the distance, as does Pierre. As they fly towards their destination, we see Brit and Tiff standing out in front of the bank, as the two super robots go towards their mission.)
Brit: Hmmm, it seems that robotic French clown has powers unlike that meddling tin can.
Tiff: I agree with you on that. But how are we going to humiliate that frog with XJ-whoever hanging out with him? We already lost our chances with our crystal dresses due to that magazine cover, remember?
Brit: Yes, Tiff. That was an unfortunate stain on our plans to thwart that robotic bumpkin. But you do have a point. What should we do to make that frog pay for his people turning chicken-puke over helping us defeat Iraq?
Tiff: (cocks an eyebrow) Chicken-puke, girlfriend?
Brit: Well, mumsy did put me on the swear jar system.
Unknown Voice: (off-screen) Oh that's a shame! Too bad you don't have somebody like me to teach that meddling pierrot a lesson!
(Brit and Tiff suddenly turn around to see where the source of the voice came from.)
Brit: Who's hiding here?! Show yourself!
(the voice chuckles as the source shows himself in front of the cousins. The man appears to be wearing what is a ringmaster's outfit, only the colors are black and crimson red.)
Tiff: (putting her fists up in defense) Who are you, fool?!
Unknown Man: (chuckles) Please allow me to introduce myself. I am a man of wealth and taste. I've been around for a long year, so many a fool will say. (extends his hand towards Brit and Tiff) Please to meet you, ladies. Can you guess my name? 'Cause what's puzzling you is the nature of my game.
(pause, Brit and Tiff glance at each other)
Brit: (slowly) (shakes the stranger's hand) Yeeeessss... I supposed you do have something to do with that robotic clown. So, you're like the ringmaster, or something?
Unknown Man: (pleased) Ah, yes. I see you have guessed my name. For you see, I am Le Ringmaster, the ringmaster of the Cirque de Chaos of Paris, France.
Tiff: Ringmaster?
Brit: But what do you have to do with this robotic menace that has come to our school?
Le Ringmaster/Unknown Man: Pierre Pierrot is a robotic goldmine for my robotic circus! But that little runt has eluded me and defeated my best minions in France ever since Professor Fromage built him!
Brit: Wait a minute! That robotic dolt is a real circus clown?!
Le Ringmaster: That is correct, madamoiselle. But now that he is here in America on a peace keeping mission, I have a chance to teach that metallic circus freak a lesson and embarrass this poor excuse for a country. But you two, the two of you have a vendetta against him and that robot girl, do you?
Tiff: Of course we do! That tin can has been climbing up the popularity tree because of those robot powers of hers!
Brit: Yes, we do have a hatred for XJ-9, or Jenny, as she likes to call herself. And me and my cousin have had one fight against her with powers we've gotten from the crystalized gowns me and Tiff were originally going to wear to the Junior Prom. Unfortunately, Jenny beat us to the punch by showing us a trend magazine that put an end to our little fun. All is not lossed, however. Even though we avoided being outdated and into the past, we kept the dresses in a safe place, knowing one day, we shall get our revenge on that robot girl!
Le Ringmaster: You two have fought this Jenny before? I'm impressed. But as you can see, we both have a mutual hatred towards our enemies. So, I propose a deal.
Tiff: A deal? Like what?
Le Ringmaster: I want the two of you to set up a trap for that meddling pierrot, so that I can attack him and that meddlesome XJ-9 for you.
Brit: And what do we get in return?
Le Ringmaster: I'll make sure you can wear those dresses again, no matter what the American trendsetters say. You two can have the same power that you've had before! So what do you say? (extends his hand, waiting for the seal of the deal)
(Brit and Tiff look down at the sidewalk in thought, and then face each other. They then start to think back to when they fought Jenny in the episode "Dressed to Kill". We all see scenes of the cousins attacking Jenny with their newfound powers, from Brit blowing ice breath against Jenny's water attack, the cousins using their multiply eye trick, and Tiff squeezing Jenny with her "hand". It ends with Jenny showing them the magazine cover that put an end to their little fun and games. End flashback. The two cousins then share a devious smile on their face, and turn toward Le Ringmaster.)
Brit: Consider this a done deal, (shakes his hand) monsiuer. (laughs maniacly along with Tiff and Le Ringmaster)
CUT TO:
INT. Tremorton High School, Classroom
(cut to the next day at Tremerton High School. At the classroom, we see Jenny, Brad, and Pierre sitting next to each other at their respective desks, talking to each other. As they talk, Brit and Tiff watch over at Pierre from their desks.)
Tiff: There he is, with Jenny and Brad. Are you sure this plan will work?
Brit: Of course it will. According to Le Ringmaster, what Pierre Pierrot can't resist is enteraining a crowd.
(she and Tiff walk over to their desks. As they walk there, Jenny notices them.)
Jenny: (to Brit and Tiff) Hey, girlfriends! Have the two of you met Pierre? He is such the coolest robot I've ever known!
Brit: Yes. Me and Tiff have seen him around school as of late. (to Pierre) I'm so happy to see a French student in our class. As far as I know, Paris is the foremost capital of fashion. Welcome, or as you Frenchies say, bienvinue.
Tiff: But Brit, didn't you say that the French are-
Brit: (puts her hand on her cousin's mouth) Shh. Quiet. (to Pierre) Anyway, Pierre, me and Tiff had been telling the principal about you, and we wondered if you like to entertain the school during assembly?
Pierre: Me? Entertain the entire school?
Tiff: Don't sweat it, brother. The principal has been thinking up a way to entertain us for a while. We need the break.
Brit: So, Pierre, are you willing to do it?
Pierre: (overjoyed) Sure. Thank you, Miss, um...
Brit: Oh, my! Where my manners? I am Britney Krust, but you may call me Brit; (gestures to Tiff) this is my cousin Tiffany, but everyone calls her Tiff.
Tiff: Nice to meet you, homeboy.
Jenny: Wow! Pierre performing for our school! (to Brit and Tiff) Thank you guys! You two are the coolest!
Brit: Thanks for the complement, Jenny dear. (walks off) Toodles!
Tiff: (to Pierre) Break a leg, sugar! (winks to him, and follows her cousin)
Pierre: (memserized) Wow...!
Brad: Yo, Pierre! You all right in there?! (waves his hand in front of his face) Hello?! Earth to Le Pierrot! Earth to Le Pierrot!
(cut to Brit and Tiff as they walk back to their desks)
Brit: Excellent! Everything is going according to plan!
Tiff: Let's see Jenny and Pierre try to escape from this trap! (she and her cousin laugh to themselves, knowing that their plan is going to be in fruitation.)
CUT TO: Auditorium, Afternoon
(the auditorium is packed with students, awaiting to see Pierre perform for the school. We then focus on Jenny and Brad in the front row.)
Jenny: (ecstatic) Oh man, I can't wait for Pierre's performance!
Brad: (calming Jenny down) Easy there, Jen. I've never seen you this excited since you've told me about that Silver Shell guy.
Jenny: I know. But Pierre is a professional circus clown. I sure hope he knows what he's doing.
(cut to the stage where we see Mr. Radzinsky on the mic)
Mr. Radzinsky: (clears his throat) Attention students! Normally, we have an assembly to discuss school problems. But, somehow, we have an entertainer amongst our student body, and he has been coaxed into performing for us today.
(as he speaks, we switch to backstage, where Pierre is standing by Brit and Tiff.)
Brit: (to Pierre) You excited, Pierre?
Pierre: You bet! I can't wait to give it my all for the students here in Tremorton High!
Tiff: Easy there, tiger. Save it for the show.
Pierre: I will! (goes up on stage, leaving Brit and Tiff alone)
Tiff: Yo Brit, is the plan coming to order?
(Brit then turns her view towards the upper stage catwalk. She and Tiff see the silhouetted figure of Le Ringmaster near the stage lights. He gives a signal to them, as Brit smiles deviously.)
Brit: Yes, everything is going according to plan. (as she eyes Pierre) Break a leg, Pierre! Heh, heh. Break a leg!
(cut to the stage where Pierre is now next to Radzinsky)
Mr. Radzinsky: Students, this is Pierre Pierrot; Pierrot-1. Pierre will now perform tricks for our amusement, and- (is cut off as Pierre taps on his shoulder) Huh? What is it? (notices his flower) Oh, nice flower. Mind if I-
(on cue, the flower squirts water at Radzinsky, thus falling for the old squirting flower trick. All the students, including Jenny and Brad, laugh at this spectacle. As Mr. Radzinsky is drying himself off, Pierre then squeezes Radzinsky into an imaginary box; an old mime trick. All the students continue to laugh their heads off. As they keep laughing, we cut to Le Ringmaster on the catwalk. He looks towards the Krust Cousins for the signal. Brit first raises her hand, and drops her hand down in a fast motion, thus signaling Le Ringmaster. He then starts to cut the wires on the lights. Cut to the front row, as Jenny and Brad continue to laugh. She then stops laughing to see the silhouette of Le Ringmaster cutting the lights. She then yells to Pierre from the front row.)
Jenny: WATCH OUT, PIERRE!!!
(Pierre then stops, and we hear a snap. He looks up to see the lighting coming down towards him. Sensing this, he grabs Radzinsky and jumps out of the way as the lights crash down on stage. Jenny then comes up stage to check up on Pierre.)
Jenny: Pierre! Are you ok?
Pierre: (shakened up) I think so, but-
Le Ringmaster: (off-screen) YOU FOOL!!
(Le Ringmaster jumps off the catwalk and onto the stage. Every student is shocked, especially Pierre.)
Pierre: You?!
Jenny: Who's he?
(suddenly, Brit and Tiff appear on stage next to Le Ringmaster)
Tiff: Haven't you figured it out, you cybernetic nerd?
Brit: Le Ringmaster is helping us get rid of your new friend, Frenchie! My earlier plan about humilating the poor sap was good; but when Le Ringmaster showed up, Tiff and I struck a deal with this fine chap to destroy him!
Tiff: And in return, we can wear our crystal gowns and attack you by tenfold!
Pierre: So that means, this is a trap?
Tiff: Precisely, you French fool!
Brit: (to Le Ringmaster) Now teach these robotic dunces a lesson!
Le Ringmaster: (grabbing for his whip) Certainly... (suddenly he cracks his whip and attacks. But it's not at Jenny and Pierre, it's Brit and Tiff) starting with you two!
(he starts to whip Brit and Tiff into submission)
Brit: (as she gets whipped) What?! *crack* Ow! You French frog! *crack* Ouch! We made a deal, remember?!
Tiff: (as she gets whipped) Oh, God! *crack* Ow! This ain't right! *crack* Agh!
Le Ringmaster: (as he whips them) You American fools! Do you two honestly think I can strike a deal with a bunch of people supposedly ruder than us?! I came here for Pierrot, and nothing else!
(he continues to whip them again, and again, and again, and again, all the while, he is laughing maniacly at his work. Suddenly, a yellow streak knocks him off his feet.)
Le Ringmaster: (exasperated) What the-?!
(who stands before Le Ringmaster is Pierre Pierrot.)
Pierre: Listen, Ringmaster! I don't know how you snuck into this country; but I will not let you ruin my peace keeping mission! Especially now that I have gotten some new friends in XJ-9 and her friend, Brad! As a sworn member among many of my robotic Frenchmen, I shall not let you do that! (turns to Jenny) So, Jenny! Want to help me bash this guy's main act?
Jenny: I'll be more than happy to!
(Jenny and Pierre start of their attack by double-teaming Le Ringmaster. As they start to attack, he gets his whip out again, and cracks the whip to attack Jenny and Pierre, who dodge the blows. He keeps cracking his whip until Pierre comes up behind him, and pokes his shoulder.)
Le Ringmaster: Huh? (turns around) Wha?
(Pierre chucks a bananna creamed pie on Le Ringmaster's face. Le Ringmaster wobbles back a few steps, then turns around to receive a splash of seltzer by Jenny. Everybody, except for Brit and Tiff, laugh at Le Ringmaster being made a fool of by Jenny and Pierre. As he wipes the water and bits of pie off his face, Pierre snatches the whip from him.)
Le Ringmaster: Huh? (sees that his whip is gone) What the-?
(suddenly Jenny, along with Pierre, spin the whip around him and ties him up. With Pierre crouching behind him, Jenny pushes Le Ringmaster over Pierre, and he lands onto the orchestra pit. The students applaude their act, and they take a bow. As they bow, we see Brit and Tiff struggling to get up after their whipping. Jenny sees this, and she comes over to them.)
Jenny: Are you guys okay?
Brit: (not knowing that Jenny is helping her up) Yes, I'm fine. I'm- (finally sees Jenny. She swipes her hand away) Get away from me! If you were sympathetic, then why didn't you help us when that maniac whipped us?!
Jenny: I did!
Tiff: Yeah, right! (rubs her back) Ow, my back! That really stings!
Jenny: No, seriously! I did help you! (Pierre then puts a hand on her shoulder) Huh?
Pierre: Jenny, the Krust cousins played a trick on me, and set me up. I say they need a taste of their own medicine. (he smiles towards Brit and Tiff, who are generally confused)
Brit: Listen, clownie! Whatever you're thinking about, it won't happen!
Tiff: Yeah! We're Americans! We never get embarrassed!
(cut to minutes later, where we see the Krust Cousins wearing ridiculous clown outfits doing juggling tricks for the student body.)
Tiff: (sarcastic) Oh yeah, this would be great for our application; becoming clowns and giving a great performance!
Brit: (annoyed as heck) Will you shut up and keep juggling?!
(cut to Jenny, Brad, and Pierre in the backstage area, behind the side curtain.)
Brad: (hardly contain his laughter) Wow, Pierre! You sure know how to make Brit and Tiff pay for setting you up against that ringmaster guy!
Jenny: I have to admit, (chuckles) it is very funny.
Pierre: I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. (saddened) But after today, I have to go back to France.
Jenny: Go back? Why?
Brad: Yeah, I was just starting to like you, dude!
Pierre: I know. But my poppa, he wants me back, because of Le Ringmaster's actions. Besides, I think I did good enough on my stay here in America. (to Jenny) I'm really going to miss you, Jenny. Thanks for letting me help you out on your superhero duty like your mom asked.
Jenny: I know. (hugs Pierre) It's just that you're the second robot to come to Tremorton High, and I really need someone like you to relate to.
Pierre: I understand. But I must hurry off. Au revior, Jenny. (kisses Jenny's hand) Au revior.
(Pierre walks away from Jenny and Brad, and heads for the exit. Jenny still continues to look on, saddened that her new friend is leaving. Brad then puts a reassuring hand on her shoulder.)
Brad: Don't worry, Jen. Look at the bright side.
(cut to the Krust cousins, still doing their embarrassing juggling act)
Brad: (voice-over) At least you're not the Krust cousins.
(Brit and Tiff look at the camera in extreme annoyance as the screen shrinks into two seperate irises, each one showing the cousins. They sneer at the viewer, and the irises close into black.)

Pop Goes Pierrot
by Anthony "A-Log" LoGatto
My First "My Life as a Teenage Robot" fan-fic!
INT. Tremorton High School, Hallways
(the show opens with Global Response Unit XJ-9, aka Jenny, and her best friend Brad, walking down the school halls. As usual, Jenny is worried about being a teenager since she also has to stop crime.)
Jenny: (uncontently) *sigh*
Brad: What's eating you now, Jenny?
Jenny: Brad, didn't you hear the rumors?
Brad: What rumors?
Jenny: Well, according to my student sensory system, I heard that there's going to be a new student coming to our school today.
Brad: (fumbles into his locker) Pfft. That's not a shocker.
Jenny: But this new kid is a foreign exchange student... (pause) he's from France.
(Brad drops his book when Jenny mentions where the new kid is from)
Brad: Woah. He's from France?
Jenny: That's all I know. The thing is, I don't what I'm suppose to do!
Brad: Jen-meister, it's easy. (closes his locker) If you have experiance in being a new kid yourself, you can tell him what it's like here in school.
Jenny: Are you sure, Brad? What if I screw this up for him?
Brad: Relax, Jenny. It's not like he's a spy trying to collect information on our country. At least you know what to do with him.
Jenny: (annoyed) I know.
(they walk towards their first class: History. As we see the classmates [including Jenny and Brad], we cut to their History teacher. She is dressed in a black shirt under a gray work suit, has brown hair, and speaks in a Greek accent.)
History Teacher: Good morning, class. Before we start, we have a new student coming into our homeroom: a foreign exchange student from France.
(as she says this, we cut to Brit and Tiff, the Krust Cousins. From their look, they don't like where the new kid is from.)
Tiff: (aside) Yo, Brit. Since when did we invite a French frog into an American school? They were too chicken to help us in the war!
Brit: (aside) I didn't get the message, either, Tiff. But judging from where he's from, I'm sure he's in for quite a surprise.
(Brit snickers alongside her "cousin". Cut back to the History teacher.)
History Teacher: Now, I know how hard it is to be the new student, but let's all try to make him comfortable in Tremorton High. (opens the door) Okay, you can come in now.
(the new student then walks in. Jenny and Brad goes wide-eyed, as does Brit and Tiff, as they see the new student. The new student is dressed up like a circus clown, complete with big red shoes, rainbow clown outfit, white clown make-up w/ a red star on his right eye, and a conical clown hat. Oh, and a big red nose and green clown hair.)
History Teacher: Kids, say hello to Pierrot-1, also known as Pierre Pierrot. Like Ms. XJ-9, he's also a robot. (to Pierre) Can you explain yourself to the class, Pierre?
Pierre: Oui. (opens a conpartment in his body and changes his Language Modual from French to English) I come from France, where, if you have watched the news in recent months, your country and mine are at each other's throats about the Iraq War. Even though my father never understood it all, I am assigned on a peace-keeping mission so that our country can be friends again.
(notices the entire class is staring at him due to his clownish appearance.)
Pierre: *sigh* And of course, I am fully aware that I'm designed as a pierrot, which is French for 'clown'. You see, my father had a love of clowns as a child, and has loved me as a son since. (changes the subject) But that's not important. What is important, is that I hope my mission goes as planned. Thank you. (walks over to his desk. Every time he walks, his shoes makes a silly squeeking noise. Cut to Jenny and Brad.)
Jenny: (aside/excited) This is so cool! Not only is the new kid from France, but he's also a robot! (beaming) Finally, another robot to make pals with!
(Brad just rolls his eyes. Really, he was going to like Pierre, but something tells us differently. Cut to the Krust Cousins.)
Tiff: (exasperated) What?! Not only do we have a Frenchie, but he's also a robot?! (leans back on her chair) Oh, man, this is going to reek!
Brit: Don't be too sure, Tiff dear. We now have two titainium twerps to mess around with! (smiles wickedly)
CUT TO: Cafeteria, Afternoon
(all the students of Tremerton High are having their lunch. Cut to Jenny and Brad's table, where they're having their lunch by themselves. As they are eating, Jenny then notices Pierre, who is trying to find a spot to sit and eat. She sees him get rejected by the other students. Feeling sorry for him, Jenny stands up and walks over to Pierre.)
Jenny: Hey Pierre.
Pierre: Hm?
Jenny: Um, my name is Jenny. I am here to welcome you to our school.
Pierre: Really? (Jenny nods, smiling) Well, you have got to be the first person to say "hi" to me.
Jenny: Why?
Pierre: Well, because of my appearance, they think I'm a clown; and not in the funny, ha-ha way.
Jenny: Relax, Pierre. I felt that way too when I first came here, but I'm better now. I'm still working on being popular, but I'm still trying. Would you like to sit with me and my friend, Brad?
Pierre: Sure.
(Pierre walks with Jenny to her table. Pan towards the popular table, which includes the Krust Cousins and their friends. They just saw Pierre with Jenny.)
Tiff: Looks like that clown has made friends with that robot girl. (to Brit) I thought you had an idea to mess him up.
Brit: Relax, Tiff. As soon as the time is right, we'll give that automatic clown mechanism one big nudge... (gestures as if pushing someone) over the edge! (laughs maniacly along with her cousin)
(switch to Jenny and Brad's table. Jenny brings Pierre to the table as Brad is eating.)
Jenny: Hey, Brad. I'd like you to meet Pierre Pierrot. You know, from class?
Brad: Of course I do. (to Pierre) So Pierre, you came from France on a peace keeping mission?
Pierre: That I did, oui.
Brad: Cool. But aren't you a little bit similar to Jenny?
Pierre: What do you mean?
Brad: Well, aren't you a superhero?
Pierre: (unsure) Well, not really.
(all of a sudden, a beeping noise is heard on his clown hat. It then opens to release a television screen out of his hat. It then turns on to reveal a burly man with a white mustache and lab coat.)
Scientist: (in cheesy French accent) Pierrot-1, this is your father, Prof. Fromage, speaking!
Pierre: (annoyed) Poppa, why did you have to call me now? And the name's Pierre!
Prof. Fromage/Scientist: Whatever. There has been a robbery at the First National Bank in Tremorton, and I need you to stop them! Zat iz an order!
Pierre: (sullen) Yes, Poppa. Over and out. (cuts the transmission off)
(Jenny and Brad are surprised to hear Pierre's true occupation)
Jenny: You're a super hero?
Pierre: In short, yes. But I have no time to explain!
(he opens up his rocket pack, and he zooms right out of the lunchroom. Jenny still looks on in amazement)
Brad: Um, Jenny? Yoo-hoo! Jenny! (snaps his fingers in front of her face, and she snaps out of her trance.)
Jenny: Did you see that?
Brad: Yeah, but-
Jenny: (overjoyed) Finally! Another superhero robot in our school! I've got to check this out! (opens up her own jetpack, and zooms out the window. Brit and Tiff watch on, as they too are shocked to find out that the new student is a superhero.)
Tiff: Oh, great! Now that Frenchie's a superhero! That's another superbot we have to contend with!
Brit: Hold it, Tiff. Remember, I am still devising a plan to humiliate that robotic bozo in his own game. Come on, let's see what he's up to.
(she and Tiff run out of the cafeteria, unnoticed as they try to figure out a way to humiliate Pierre.)
CUT TO: Tremorton, City Streets, Afternoon
(we see people running away, as there is a bank robbery in process. Cut to the bank, where we see the smaller robber holding the teller up at gunpoint.)
Small Robber: (demanding) Okay, geek! Put all the money into the bag, or else you'll be sleeping in dirt!
Teller: (desperate to live/throws the money into the bag) Yes, sir! Anything you want, sir!
(as the teller is filling up the bag, the second, bigger robber comes back holding a bigger bag stuffed with money.)
Bigger Robber: Hey, boss! I got some more loot from the safe!
Smaller Robber: Excellent! (closes the bag) And the best part is, that annoying robot girl isn't even here to stop us!
: (off-screen) May be so! But I'm here!
(the two robbers exchange shocked glances to each other, knowing that Jenny may have caught them in time. But the robot figure zooming into the bank is not Jenny, but Pierre. He comes to a stop and faces the two confused robbers.)
Smaller Robber: Hey, what's this? Who the heck is this clown?
Bigger Robber: Duh, maybe he comes from that circus in town?
Pierre: That as it may be! But I am Pierrot-1, also known as Pierre Pierrot! I am the robotic defender of France! And I-
Bigger Robber: Wait a minute! He's from France?!
Smaller Robber: (to his comrade) Well don't just stand there, man! Shoot the frog down!
(he and his fellow robber take their guns out and proceed to shoot at Pierre. Amazingly, the bullets bounce off him, and didn't make a scratch.)
Pierre: (annoyed) Why must these American robbers try to do it the hard way?
(Pierre then goes into his wrist pocket and takes out four juggling balls and proceeds to juggle them. The robbers stop shooting and look on, dumbfounded.)
Bigger Robber: Hey, he's juggling!
Smaller Robber: How can he hurt us while juggling those stupid balls?
(Pierre just smiles, and he throws two of the juggling balls and they zoom towards the two robbers. When it lands on them, the balls release a laughing gas onto the robbers, and they laugh their butts off. As they laugh like crazy, Pierre throws the remaining two juggling balls, and throws them to the laughing robbers. Just before it lands on them, each ball released a net, capturing their respective robber. Pierre then stands next to the robbers, and he bows to the citizens as they applaude his work.)
Pierre: Wow. I've never thought that catching criminals would be so much easy in this country!
(all of a sudden, Jenny zooms into the bank, and lands next to Pierre.)
Jenny: (amazed) Wow, Pierre! That was amazing!
(Pierre turns to see Jenny beside him)
Pierre: (surprised) Oh, Jenny! (nervous) Well, um, it is amazing, I guess.
Jenny: Well, I wished I would've helped you out. Besides, I'm not sure if you're still new to American crime-fighting.
Pierre: That's all right. Anyway, (cuts to the still laughing bank robbers as being they are being carted away by the police) those robbers were really no hassle.
(cut back to Jenny and Pierre)
Jenny: That's okay. I just hope that I can- (she is then interuppted as her chest slides open as a transmission screen sets itself up. When it is fully completed, Mrs. Wakeman appears on screen.)
Mrs. Wakeman: (stern) XJ-9! Where have you been?! I have been calling you for over five minutes! What took you so long?!
Jenny: Sorry mom, but I just had to check out my new friend.
Mrs. Wakeman: This is no time for making new comrades,-
Jenny: (correcting her mother) That's "friends", mom!
Mrs. Wakeman: Whatever! There is a- (she then glances towards her right, and notices Pierre. The screen then moves to show herself to Pierre.) Oh? Who is this young robotic specimen?
Pierre: Oh, bonjour, Madamoiselle Wakeman. I am Pierre Pierrot, robotic defender of France.
Mrs. Wakeman: (to herself) Pierrot... Pierrot... Pier- (quickly remembers something about Pierre) Oh yes! You must be Pierrot-1, the first line of Pierrot robots from my old friend, Bernard Fromage!
Pierre: (bashful) Well, that I am...
Mrs. Wakeman: Well, I'm very glad that I have an oppertunity to meet you, Pierre.
Jenny: (annoyed) Mom, can we get back to me for a moment?
Mrs. Wakeman: Huh? Oh yes, right! (turns the screen back to Jenny) There has been a mudslide in western California. I think you should let Pierre come along and assist you on your mission.
Jenny: Okay, mom.
Mrs. Wakeman: And don't forget to do your homework when you come back, dear. Toodles! (the screen shuts off, and goes back into Jenny's chest)
Pierre: Wow. Your mom seems to be... um... what's the word...?
Jenny: No time for that! I've got to stop that mudslide; and you're helping! (zooms off into the distance, as does Pierre. As they fly towards their destination, we see Brit and Tiff standing out in front of the bank, as the two super robots go towards their mission.)
Brit: Hmmm, it seems that robotic French clown has powers unlike that meddling tin can.
Tiff: I agree with you on that. But how are we going to humiliate that frog with XJ-whoever hanging out with him? We already lost our chances with our crystal dresses due to that magazine cover, remember?
Brit: Yes, Tiff. That was an unfortunate stain on our plans to thwart that robotic bumpkin. But you do have a point. What should we do to make that frog pay for his people turning chicken-puke over helping us defeat Iraq?
Tiff: (cocks an eyebrow) Chicken-puke, girlfriend?
Brit: Well, mumsy did put me on the swear jar system.
Unknown Voice: (off-screen) Oh that's a shame! Too bad you don't have somebody like me to teach that meddling pierrot a lesson!
(Brit and Tiff suddenly turn around to see where the source of the voice came from.)
Brit: Who's hiding here?! Show yourself!
(the voice chuckles as the source shows himself in front of the cousins. The man appears to be wearing what is a ringmaster's outfit, only the colors are black and crimson red.)
Tiff: (putting her fists up in defense) Who are you, fool?!
Unknown Man: (chuckles) Please allow me to introduce myself. I am a man of wealth and taste. I've been around for a long year, so many a fool will say. (extends his hand towards Brit and Tiff) Please to meet you, ladies. Can you guess my name? 'Cause what's puzzling you is the nature of my game.
(pause, Brit and Tiff glance at each other)
Brit: (slowly) (shakes the stranger's hand) Yeeeessss... I supposed you do have something to do with that robotic clown. So, you're like the ringmaster, or something?
Unknown Man: (pleased) Ah, yes. I see you have guessed my name. For you see, I am Le Ringmaster, the ringmaster of the Cirque de Chaos of Paris, France.
Tiff: Ringmaster?
Brit: But what do you have to do with this robotic menace that has come to our school?
Le Ringmaster/Unknown Man: Pierre Pierrot is a robotic goldmine for my robotic circus! But that little runt has eluded me and defeated my best minions in France ever since Professor Fromage built him!
Brit: Wait a minute! That robotic dolt is a real circus clown?!
Le Ringmaster: That is correct, madamoiselle. But now that he is here in America on a peace keeping mission, I have a chance to teach that metallic circus freak a lesson and embarrass this poor excuse for a country. But you two, the two of you have a vendetta against him and that robot girl, do you?
Tiff: Of course we do! That tin can has been climbing up the popularity tree because of those robot powers of hers!
Brit: Yes, we do have a hatred for XJ-9, or Jenny, as she likes to call herself. And me and my cousin have had one fight against her with powers we've gotten from the crystalized gowns me and Tiff were originally going to wear to the Junior Prom. Unfortunately, Jenny beat us to the punch by showing us a trend magazine that put an end to our little fun. All is not lossed, however. Even though we avoided being outdated and into the past, we kept the dresses in a safe place, knowing one day, we shall get our revenge on that robot girl!
Le Ringmaster: You two have fought this Jenny before? I'm impressed. But as you can see, we both have a mutual hatred towards our enemies. So, I propose a deal.
Tiff: A deal? Like what?
Le Ringmaster: I want the two of you to set up a trap for that meddling pierrot, so that I can attack him and that meddlesome XJ-9 for you.
Brit: And what do we get in return?
Le Ringmaster: I'll make sure you can wear those dresses again, no matter what the American trendsetters say. You two can have the same power that you've had before! So what do you say? (extends his hand, waiting for the seal of the deal)
(Brit and Tiff look down at the sidewalk in thought, and then face each other. They then start to think back to when they fought Jenny in the episode "Dressed to Kill". We all see scenes of the cousins attacking Jenny with their newfound powers, from Brit blowing ice breath against Jenny's water attack, the cousins using their multiply eye trick, and Tiff squeezing Jenny with her "hand". It ends with Jenny showing them the magazine cover that put an end to their little fun and games. End flashback. The two cousins then share a devious smile on their face, and turn toward Le Ringmaster.)
Brit: Consider this a done deal, (shakes his hand) monsiuer. (laughs maniacly along with Tiff and Le Ringmaster)
CUT TO:
INT. Tremorton High School, Classroom
(cut to the next day at Tremerton High School. At the classroom, we see Jenny, Brad, and Pierre sitting next to each other at their respective desks, talking to each other. As they talk, Brit and Tiff watch over at Pierre from their desks.)
Tiff: There he is, with Jenny and Brad. Are you sure this plan will work?
Brit: Of course it will. According to Le Ringmaster, what Pierre Pierrot can't resist is enteraining a crowd.
(she and Tiff walk over to their desks. As they walk there, Jenny notices them.)
Jenny: (to Brit and Tiff) Hey, girlfriends! Have the two of you met Pierre? He is such the coolest robot I've ever known!
Brit: Yes. Me and Tiff have seen him around school as of late. (to Pierre) I'm so happy to see a French student in our class. As far as I know, Paris is the foremost capital of fashion. Welcome, or as you Frenchies say, bienvinue.
Tiff: But Brit, didn't you say that the French are-
Brit: (puts her hand on her cousin's mouth) Shh. Quiet. (to Pierre) Anyway, Pierre, me and Tiff had been telling the principal about you, and we wondered if you like to entertain the school during assembly?
Pierre: Me? Entertain the entire school?
Tiff: Don't sweat it, brother. The principal has been thinking up a way to entertain us for a while. We need the break.
Brit: So, Pierre, are you willing to do it?
Pierre: (overjoyed) Sure. Thank you, Miss, um...
Brit: Oh, my! Where my manners? I am Britney Krust, but you may call me Brit; (gestures to Tiff) this is my cousin Tiffany, but everyone calls her Tiff.
Tiff: Nice to meet you, homeboy.
Jenny: Wow! Pierre performing for our school! (to Brit and Tiff) Thank you guys! You two are the coolest!
Brit: Thanks for the complement, Jenny dear. (walks off) Toodles!
Tiff: (to Pierre) Break a leg, sugar! (winks to him, and follows her cousin)
Pierre: (memserized) Wow...!
Brad: Yo, Pierre! You all right in there?! (waves his hand in front of his face) Hello?! Earth to Le Pierrot! Earth to Le Pierrot!
(cut to Brit and Tiff as they walk back to their desks)
Brit: Excellent! Everything is going according to plan!
Tiff: Let's see Jenny and Pierre try to escape from this trap! (she and her cousin laugh to themselves, knowing that their plan is going to be in fruitation.)
CUT TO: Auditorium, Afternoon
(the auditorium is packed with students, awaiting to see Pierre perform for the school. We then focus on Jenny and Brad in the front row.)
Jenny: (ecstatic) Oh man, I can't wait for Pierre's performance!
Brad: (calming Jenny down) Easy there, Jen. I've never seen you this excited since you've told me about that Silver Shell guy.
Jenny: I know. But Pierre is a professional circus clown. I sure hope he knows what he's doing.
(cut to the stage where we see Mr. Radzinsky on the mic)
Mr. Radzinsky: (clears his throat) Attention students! Normally, we have an assembly to discuss school problems. But, somehow, we have an entertainer amongst our student body, and he has been coaxed into performing for us today.
(as he speaks, we switch to backstage, where Pierre is standing by Brit and Tiff.)
Brit: (to Pierre) You excited, Pierre?
Pierre: You bet! I can't wait to give it my all for the students here in Tremorton High!
Tiff: Easy there, tiger. Save it for the show.
Pierre: I will! (goes up on stage, leaving Brit and Tiff alone)
Tiff: Yo Brit, is the plan coming to order?
(Brit then turns her view towards the upper stage catwalk. She and Tiff see the silhouetted figure of Le Ringmaster near the stage lights. He gives a signal to them, as Brit smiles deviously.)
Brit: Yes, everything is going according to plan. (as she eyes Pierre) Break a leg, Pierre! Heh, heh. Break a leg!
(cut to the stage where Pierre is now next to Radzinsky)
Mr. Radzinsky: Students, this is Pierre Pierrot; Pierrot-1. Pierre will now perform tricks for our amusement, and- (is cut off as Pierre taps on his shoulder) Huh? What is it? (notices his flower) Oh, nice flower. Mind if I-
(on cue, the flower squirts water at Radzinsky, thus falling for the old squirting flower trick. All the students, including Jenny and Brad, laugh at this spectacle. As Mr. Radzinsky is drying himself off, Pierre then squeezes Radzinsky into an imaginary box; an old mime trick. All the students continue to laugh their heads off. As they keep laughing, we cut to Le Ringmaster on the catwalk. He looks towards the Krust Cousins for the signal. Brit first raises her hand, and drops her hand down in a fast motion, thus signaling Le Ringmaster. He then starts to cut the wires on the lights. Cut to the front row, as Jenny and Brad continue to laugh. She then stops laughing to see the silhouette of Le Ringmaster cutting the lights. She then yells to Pierre from the front row.)
Jenny: WATCH OUT, PIERRE!!!
(Pierre then stops, and we hear a snap. He looks up to see the lighting coming down towards him. Sensing this, he grabs Radzinsky and jumps out of the way as the lights crash down on stage. Jenny then comes up stage to check up on Pierre.)
Jenny: Pierre! Are you ok?
Pierre: (shakened up) I think so, but-
Le Ringmaster: (off-screen) YOU FOOL!!
(Le Ringmaster jumps off the catwalk and onto the stage. Every student is shocked, especially Pierre.)
Pierre: You?!
Jenny: Who's he?
(suddenly, Brit and Tiff appear on stage next to Le Ringmaster)
Tiff: Haven't you figured it out, you cybernetic nerd?
Brit: Le Ringmaster is helping us get rid of your new friend, Frenchie! My earlier plan about humilating the poor sap was good; but when Le Ringmaster showed up, Tiff and I struck a deal with this fine chap to destroy him!
Tiff: And in return, we can wear our crystal gowns and attack you by tenfold!
Pierre: So that means, this is a trap?
Tiff: Precisely, you French fool!
Brit: (to Le Ringmaster) Now teach these robotic dunces a lesson!
Le Ringmaster: (grabbing for his whip) Certainly... (suddenly he cracks his whip and attacks. But it's not at Jenny and Pierre, it's Brit and Tiff) starting with you two!
(he starts to whip Brit and Tiff into submission)
Brit: (as she gets whipped) What?! *crack* Ow! You French frog! *crack* Ouch! We made a deal, remember?!
Tiff: (as she gets whipped) Oh, God! *crack* Ow! This ain't right! *crack* Agh!
Le Ringmaster: (as he whips them) You American fools! Do you two honestly think I can strike a deal with a bunch of people supposedly ruder than us?! I came here for Pierrot, and nothing else!
(he continues to whip them again, and again, and again, and again, all the while, he is laughing maniacly at his work. Suddenly, a yellow streak knocks him off his feet.)
Le Ringmaster: (exasperated) What the-?!
(who stands before Le Ringmaster is Pierre Pierrot.)
Pierre: Listen, Ringmaster! I don't know how you snuck into this country; but I will not let you ruin my peace keeping mission! Especially now that I have gotten some new friends in XJ-9 and her friend, Brad! As a sworn member among many of my robotic Frenchmen, I shall not let you do that! (turns to Jenny) So, Jenny! Want to help me bash this guy's main act?
Jenny: I'll be more than happy to!
(Jenny and Pierre start of their attack by double-teaming Le Ringmaster. As they start to attack, he gets his whip out again, and cracks the whip to attack Jenny and Pierre, who dodge the blows. He keeps cracking his whip until Pierre comes up behind him, and pokes his shoulder.)
Le Ringmaster: Huh? (turns around) Wha?
(Pierre chucks a bananna creamed pie on Le Ringmaster's face. Le Ringmaster wobbles back a few steps, then turns around to receive a splash of seltzer by Jenny. Everybody, except for Brit and Tiff, laugh at Le Ringmaster being made a fool of by Jenny and Pierre. As he wipes the water and bits of pie off his face, Pierre snatches the whip from him.)
Le Ringmaster: Huh? (sees that his whip is gone) What the-?
(suddenly Jenny, along with Pierre, spin the whip around him and ties him up. With Pierre crouching behind him, Jenny pushes Le Ringmaster over Pierre, and he lands onto the orchestra pit. The students applaude their act, and they take a bow. As they bow, we see Brit and Tiff struggling to get up after their whipping. Jenny sees this, and she comes over to them.)
Jenny: Are you guys okay?
Brit: (not knowing that Jenny is helping her up) Yes, I'm fine. I'm- (finally sees Jenny. She swipes her hand away) Get away from me! If you were sympathetic, then why didn't you help us when that maniac whipped us?!
Jenny: I did!
Tiff: Yeah, right! (rubs her back) Ow, my back! That really stings!
Jenny: No, seriously! I did help you! (Pierre then puts a hand on her shoulder) Huh?
Pierre: Jenny, the Krust cousins played a trick on me, and set me up. I say they need a taste of their own medicine. (he smiles towards Brit and Tiff, who are generally confused)
Brit: Listen, clownie! Whatever you're thinking about, it won't happen!
Tiff: Yeah! We're Americans! We never get embarrassed!
(cut to minutes later, where we see the Krust Cousins wearing ridiculous clown outfits doing juggling tricks for the student body.)
Tiff: (sarcastic) Oh yeah, this would be great for our application; becoming clowns and giving a great performance!
Brit: (annoyed as heck) Will you shut up and keep juggling?!
(cut to Jenny, Brad, and Pierre in the backstage area, behind the side curtain.)
Brad: (hardly contain his laughter) Wow, Pierre! You sure know how to make Brit and Tiff pay for setting you up against that ringmaster guy!
Jenny: I have to admit, (chuckles) it is very funny.
Pierre: I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. (saddened) But after today, I have to go back to France.
Jenny: Go back? Why?
Brad: Yeah, I was just starting to like you, dude!
Pierre: I know. But my poppa, he wants me back, because of Le Ringmaster's actions. Besides, I think I did good enough on my stay here in America. (to Jenny) I'm really going to miss you, Jenny. Thanks for letting me help you out on your superhero duty like your mom asked.
Jenny: I know. (hugs Pierre) It's just that you're the second robot to come to Tremorton High, and I really need someone like you to relate to.
Pierre: I understand. But I must hurry off. Au revior, Jenny. (kisses Jenny's hand) Au revior.
(Pierre walks away from Jenny and Brad, and heads for the exit. Jenny still continues to look on, saddened that her new friend is leaving. Brad then puts a reassuring hand on her shoulder.)
Brad: Don't worry, Jen. Look at the bright side.
(cut to the Krust cousins, still doing their embarrassing juggling act)
Brad: (voice-over) At least you're not the Krust cousins.
(Brit and Tiff look at the camera in extreme annoyance as the screen shrinks into two seperate irises, each one showing the cousins. They sneer at the viewer, and the irises close into black.)
