They can't all be brilliant

FADE IN.

EXT. BALCONY - DAY

EMILY the spunky but brutally hot teacher, mid twenties, walks up to two teenagers leaning over the edge of the balcony and looking down on the Bratz movie shoot. One of the teens is a GIRL, and the other a BOY.

EMILY
Okay, guys, you have to go to class.

BOY
We have service.

GIRL
We're trying to figure out how we can steal those cookies.

Girl points to the table below the balcony where the prop guys pack the fake school lunches.

BOY
We could get some string and lower you down and you could grab it.

EMILY
I could go for one of those pinwheels.

Girl points to a circle of actresses in jerseys, kicking a soccer ball around on the grass.

GIRL
What is this movie about? Soccer players or what?

EMILY
No, it's about the Bratz.

BOY
You know, those munecas with the big heads?

GIRL
So why do they have all these groups? We don't get in groups like that.

EMILY
It's based on a cartoon, so everything's going to be a little exagerrated.

GIRL
This is a cartoon?

BOY
No, it's based on a cartoon. This is real life.

GIRL
So if I got in the video I'd come out as a cartoon?

Boy begins laughing hysterically. Emily begins laughing hystrically. Girl waits for an answer.

FADE OUT.
