(We start off by coming in an attic where we see Martha, Truman and Skippy huddling together.)

Truman: We're trapped! This is horrible!

Martha: Sshh! I think we'll be safe.

Skippy: Yeah, just calm down, Truman.

Truman: But there might spiders up here! Or bats! Or...mold!

(Suddenly, there was creaking)

Skippy: Sush! I think I hear something.

(Skippy looks around)

Martha: You see anything, Skippy?

(Skippy still looks around and sees nothing)

Skippy: Nope. It was probably nothing.

(Little did they know that a cloak figure was behind Truman. It sneaked behind Truman and wrapped its arm around him)

???: Got you!

Truman: *Screams*

(Truman screams and runs and trips. The figure took the cloak off, revealing to be Helen. Her, Martha and Skippy went to check on Truman who seemed to fell over and hit his head)

Helen: Truman?

(In the Kitchen, Helen and Truman *Who had an Ice Pack on his head* was sitting talking while Martha and Skippy was eating)

Truman: You guys, I was just pretending. But if I was a kid, got scared easy, that would've been terrifying! When you grow up, you should be an actress, Helen. You've got a gift.

Martha: Gift? How come she gets a present and me and my imaginary friend don't?

Helen: No, Truman means gift, like you're naturally really good at something. Like being a talking dog or creating an imaginary friend. *Pets Martha's head*

Martha: Itchy spot. Itchy spot.

Truman: You think you'll be an actress some day?

Helen: No way! They asked us to sign up for the school play this week, and me and Tom said we be the ticket takers.

Skippy: Really? The school play? What's in about this year?

Helen: I don't know. Something science. The Solar System, I think.

Martha: Don't you wanna show off your talent?

Helen: You, Tom and Sara are the experts of showing off. Me and Tom like to stay in the background. Which reminds me, I'm supposed to meet TD and Tom to paint backdrops for the play. See you guys, later!

(Helen leaves. Soon, Helen reaches the school.)

Carolina: Helly, wait up! No wonder you're a comet! You're a fast walker! Are you excited? I think it's an excellent casting.

Helen: What?

Carolina: Because we're related. I'm a big ball of gas. You're a little ball of gas. 

Helen: I don't-

Carolina: It's perfecto! We're cousins in space, too! See you in the Solar System, you little comet you! Make way! Star coming through!

Helen: Cousins in space?

(Helen was in the school and approached Alice, TD & Tom)

Alice: Hey, Helly, congratulations! 

Helen: Okay, what is with everyone today? My name is Helen, not Helly.

Tom: Haven't you seen the board yet?

Helen: The board?

TD: The all-great's school play, remember? The cast was up a few minutes ago. And we're all in it!
