Male narrator: Eh, the path of love is never straight...

Female narrator: Well, it was, until people started choosing their own stories.

Male narrator: But you must admit, this is much more interesting.

Female narrator: Hm. Well, let's see what happens.

Ashlynn is waiting on someone and hears the door ring.

Cedar Wood: [Cedar enters.] Hey, Ashlynn! What's up with the urgent text message? Is every—

Ashlynn Ella: Shh! [She yanks Cedar down onto the seat next to her.]

Cedar Wood: [Gasp.]

Ashlynn Ella: Sorry, Cedar, but I need help!

Hunter Huntsman: We need help. [He turns to Cedar.]

Cedar Wood: Uh, Hunter?

Hunter Huntsman: Shh! I'm not Hunter! I'm, uh, Gunter! Gunter...Guntsman.

Cedar Wood: Is this about your guys' secret relationshi—

Ashlynn Ella: Shh! [Whispers.] Yes! It is about...that! Duchess knows, and she's gonna spell it out for the whole school. We don't know what to do. [Hunter and Ashlynn hold hands.]

Cedar Wood: Well, I always find it's best to tell the truth. [She points to her nose.]

Hunter and Ashlynn give each other looks of agreement. Hunter immediately removes his disguise.

Ashlynn Ella: You're right, Cedar. [Cedar nods.]

Barista: Gunter Guntsman. I got a triple mint hocus latte for Gunter Guntsman. [She holds up the coffee cup.]

Hunter Huntsman: [He chuckles and puts his disguise back on.] Over here!

The delivery goose bursts through the doors of the school and slides down the halls.

Delivery goose: Honk! I got party supplies. Honk! C.A. Cupid!

C.A. Cupid: Ah, I'm Cupid! That's me!

Delivery goose: Honk. Just sign here.

Cupid proceeds to sign.

Milton Grimm: Party supplies? [He eyes over what she's signing.]

C.A. Cupid: [Gasp.] Uh, yes! Party supplies. Um, for—

Briar Beauty: [Briar and Hopper rush in with their hands on Cupid's shoulder.] Our play. [All three of them nod in unison.]

Milton Grimm: And what, exactly, is the name of this play?

Hopper Croakington II: It's uh, um, ahh! [Hopper turns into a frog.] It's called, "The Play That Almost Was, and Then Wasn't, but Then Was".

Milton Grimm: Hmm. Very well.

Hopper lets out a breath of relief.

Blondie Lockes: I don't know, Duchess. [Blondie and Duchess look it over using Blondie's MirrorPad.] It is a bombspell, but Ash and Hunter are my friends!

Duchess Swan: If you don't report on it, [She points to Blondie.] someone else will.

Students: [Gasping.]

Duchess Swan: No! They can't own it! Now I'll never get my Happily Ever After! [She hides her face in her hands.]

Ashlynn Ella: Oh! Hey, Duchess! [She giggles and shows her and Hunter holding hands.]

Duchess glares at them as they walk past her.

Apple White: Ashlynn. [Ashlynn gasps.] You and Hunter are-are dating? B-but, you're a Royal! And he's a Rebel!
