The students are in the auditorium listening to Sam Mason, (y/n)'s best friend is on stage making a speech.
Sam: As student body president, I just want to say, like, "yea" to all of us for a really neat year.
Trekkie: Yo, Sam! Talk to me! Talk to me! Talk to me, baby!
Sam: *she shoots him a dirty look before regaining her composure* And also that I hope you can all attend my totally amazing end-of-school party next Saturday to watch the Powerline concert live on Pay-per-view.
Students cheer this announcement.
Sam: Thank you. Thank you very much. And now, without further ado, Mr Lancer.
Sudden silence falls. The microphone squeals as Lancer begins to speak.
Lancer: Thank you, Ms Mason! And good morning, boys and girls! You know, every year, on the last day of school, I have several youngsters approach me and say, "Mr Lancer, what can we do to not waste our summer vacation? We don’t want to waste our free time sleeping or visiting friends…"
The whole audience yawns as he rambles. Dash leans forward to talk to (y/n), who's barley stifling her own yawn.
Dash: So, (y/n), about Sam's party... *She shoots him the same dirty look Sam gave the other boy*
Backstage, Danny, who can see Dash talking to (y/n) through a part in the curtain. He closes the curtain, and zips up his Powerline costume.
Danny: How are you, uh, how are you doing down there, Tucker?
Tucher: Don’t give me that attitude, man. I’m doing it all for you.
Danny: I hope this works.
back to Lancer, with a spotlight on him.
Lancer: …how about Science Slumber Parties! (The spotlight goes out.) Wha…
Danny puts on his shades and gives a thumbs up. It is echoed by Tucker. A button is pressed. Rock music begins. A large screen begins to rise behind Lancer.
Lancer: Wha… (notices the screen rising.) Hey!
Danny appears on the screen. Tucker pulls a switch.
Lancer: I’m not going to…
A trap door open up under the podium and it and Mr Lancer disappear down it. Tucker laughs. Danny starts his lip synching.
Danny: *lip syncing* 🎵Some people settle for the typical thing: living all their lives waiting in the wings. It ain’t a question of if, just a matter of time, before I move to the front of the line. And once you watching every move that I make, you gotta believe that I got what it takes.🎵
Danny trips over one of the wire back stage and rips through the screen, tumbling to front center stage. The students scream their approval.
Music: 🎵To stand out above the crowd even if I gotta shout out loud.🎵
Danny is amazed to see the reception his act is getting. He especially notices the rapt gaze of (y/n) in the front row. Tucker laughs at the success of the plan. He give Danny a thumbs up.
Music: 🎵‘Til mine is the only face you’ll see. Gonna stand out ‘til you notice me.🎵
Tucker: *turns on a CO2 fire extinguisher.* A little smokage! Arooo-oo-ooo!
Danny: *lip synching* 🎵If I make you stop and take a look at me instead of just walking by, there’s nothing that I wouldn’t do if it was getting you to notice I’m alive.🎵
Danny's right in front of (y/n), eyes locked with hers as he lip syncs. She smiles wider, feeling like he's singing directly to her. As Danny backs up to dance more, Sam, who's right beside her, looks at her, sees the look on her friend's face and smiles knowingly, she knows her friend has it bad. Tucker grabs a rope with a hook on it. He sneaks under cover of the CO2 fog and hooks Danny’s belt from behind.
Danny: *lip synching* 🎵All I need is half a chance, a second thought, a second glance will prove I got whatever it takes. It’s a piece of cake.🎵
Tucker yanks on the rope and Danny goes flying around the room.
Music: 🎵To stand out above the crowd. Even if I gotta shout out loud.
Girl (same one with credit cards): Wow! Who is that guy?
Danny grabs a basketball and slam dunks it. As he swings back, he reaches out for (y/n)’s outstretched hand.
Music: 🎵‘Til mine is the only face you’ll see. Gonna…🎵
Just as Danny’s hand is about to reach (y/n)’s the music dies. Danny goes tumbling, finally ending up by Mr Lancer, who removes his shades.
Dash: Hey, it’s the Fentontoni!
Tucker: We’re busted!
Danny glances at (y/n), she looks a little surprised for a moment before she goes back to smiling at him, clearly having loved his stunt.
