At the street on Tuck's way home....
Tuck: One day I was at the amusement park playing at the balls and Kayla comes and takes me out and I ended up going to the "Fun-House" with those guys and later I fainted. There, she said that why I should stay there and not tag along with them at the first place. I wasn't tagging along. I just wanted to have a good time.
Lauren: I know. It's like the time when I went to the restaurant, I asked my order, and the waiter keeps on getting it wrong and I have to correct him seven times after seven mistakes. Now go on, tell me about your experience.
Tuck: Sure. Now the worst part was that I created all the monsters in the "Fun-House", and my dad was the scary voice guy.
Lauren: Why did you dad take that job?
Tuck: It was summer and he wanted more money.
Lauren: OK. Then what happened.
Tuck: He saw Jenny holding my body, tried to reason with those delusional morons and he got so mad the he not only called the owner of the Amusement Park and the owner called the cops and gave credit to Jenny.
Lauren: Tell me about it. (looks at watch) Well look at the time, I gotta get going.
Tuck: Me too. It's nice talking to you.
Lauren: Yeah. See ya.
Tuck: Bye.
*Comes home.*
*Jack hides tape recorder*
Jack: How was your day?
Tuck: Great.
Jack: We got some chicken and broccoli waiting for you.
Tuck: Cool.
*Starts to eat it and enjoys it.*
Jack (thinking): Now whatever you do, don't say anything like "How was your day with Miss Goody-Goody Toe Shoes?"

Tuck: I am going to show her some of my special effects work tomorrow. She heard me talk about my skills. The next day. At the basement of the ballet. Tuck clicks on the play button. The footage begins. Film stops. Lauren: That is amazing! What program did you use? Tuck: A program called "i-stop motion". Lauren: For the part where a dinosaur is walking down and a bridge is behind him, how did you do that? Tuck: Green screen effects. Lauren: It is very nice how you animated those creatures and dinosaurs. How did you get such talent. Tuck: It came out of bordom, and I ran into some magazines and I tried them out. Everything from make-up to animation and puppetry. I also watched some movies to get inspiration. Then there was a science fair going on, and I made a minature diorama at my school and after I made the diorama, I went overboard and made a little film about dinosaurs. Lauren: Did you win? Tuck: Sure I got first prize. And a some film-maker came and he said he would love to see my film again and use my talents for a movie called "Vacation Disaster". There I met the Cheat. I worked on films such as "Where's Van Helsing" ans some movie cross-overs, but things went downhill. Lauren: How come? Tuck: The film-maker got too egocentric. He made life difficult for me. I got so upset that the Cheat quit working for him. During the production of "Where's Van Helsing 3", it was going overboard, I piped up and said "Cut! I can't work like this!" So I quit. Lauren: Oh. And you got even with him and all the other messes. Tuck: Exactly! Film-making is not about money and fame and being ego-centric. It is about team-work, cooperating and vision. *pause of silence* Tuck: Well I am glad I got that off my system. Lauren: Wow. From a cute young boy. There is a bright future ahead of you. And there was one for me. I am glad I took the part of Maria in "The Nutcracker" and I appreciate the boucay of flowers you gave me. It was very sweet of you. Tuck: Oh thanks. *blushes* So can I come to your place? Lauren: Sure. Call your parents first. To see if they agree. *Tuck calls Dad on the phone* Tuck (rapidly): Hey Dad! Can I come and drop by at Lauren's house. Please please! Jack: Whoa kid. Slow down. You want to stop by at Lauren's house? Tuck: Yes! Jack: Sure. But follow her house rules. Tuck: Definately! Love ya Dad and tell Mom I said hi. *hangs up*

Jack: No. Let this kid have his fun. Any minute he will come crawling back to us.
At Lauren's house...
Tuck: This is awesome. You got a pretty nice home. Not to mention a pretty nice neighborhood.
Lauren: I know no one is there to bother you.
Tuck: Now that's what I'm talking about.
At home...

Jack: Relax. I know how he works. Any minute he will come crawling back to us. At Lauren's... Tuck: The is such a cool place! ;D Lauren: It sure is. But one slight thing. Tuck: What's that? Lauren: Well my room is in a bit of a mess and you can either sleep in the couch or here. (shows him an old little basket where her pet cat slept) Tuck: Who's Alicia? Lauren: My pet cat. She died a few years ago. Some big fat guy poisoned her or hugged her to death. His name was Lantz or something like that. I hated that guy. Tuck: Whoa! That guy was my English teacher! Lauren: Your what?! Tuck: That big fat nasty guy was my English teacher. Mr. Lantz. He was always looking for a bone to pick on and adds insult to some of our injuries. Lauren: He added insult to my own injuries. This is why I left Tremorton. Tuck: I see.

*cut to a montage of Lauren and Tuck taking kick-boxing classes, yoga, playing twister and watching TV and laughing*
(someone has the play one of the voices on the TV)
Voice One: Could we get a new sister. This one seems broken.
Voice Two: I can fix that.
Slap!
