"The Banana Splits": Janitor X Beth Love Story

Chapter 10: The Studios Tour

Paige turns on her flashlight as she gives a tour to the studio for the people as they all were walking around the room.

"The Banana Splits Adventure Hour was first conceived in 1967' as a send-up of another popular TV show from the era. Anyone know which one?" Paige asked as she explained.

"Duh. "The Monkees." You know, "The Banana Splits" was supposed to be called "Banana Bunch." But there was already another movie by that name." Thadd explained.

"Actually, it was a children's book." Paige said.

"Actually, I'm a pretty big fan so I think I'd know." Thadd said.

"Thadd, let it go." Poppy said to Thadd to calm him down.

"It's an incredibly sweet thing you did for your brother." Beth said to Austin.

"Hey, his dad sucks, but I love him. And his mom's okay too." Austin said.

"Cut me some slack." Beth said.

"And why I would I do that?" Austin asked.

"Because he raised you like a son for the last 11 years." Beth answered.

"Mom, mom, the guy's a selfish prick. He hates me. He barely remembered his own son's birthday. He doesn't even wanna be here. He'd rather be at work." Austin explained.

"It's not true." Beth said.

"Then where is he?" Austin asked.

Beth worriedly looked around for Mitch.

"Just stay with your brother. I'll be right back." Beth said.

Beth leaves and goes out to find Mitch.

"Are you excited?" Austin asked to Harley.

Suddenly, the lights turn off by themselves.

"Everyone, stay clam. I'm sure it's just..." Paige said.

The lights turned on to reveal the Banana Splits.

"The Banana Splits." Paige said.

"Oh, my God." Poppy said.

The people clapped.

"If everybody can get in a line, I'll make sure you all get photos with the Splits." Paige said.

Thadd and Poppy went to the Banana Splits, standing near Snorky and Drooper as Paige was taking their pictures.

"Excuse me, miss?" Jonathan asked to Paige.

"Uh, one moment, sir." Paige said.

"Jonathan, please. Call me Jonathan." Jonathan said.

"Jonathan, you're next. Just wait your turn." Paige said.

"Uh, miss, excuse me. Miss?" Jonathan asked.

"Go to our website to download the photos. Dude, what?" Paige asked.

"I really need to see the producer." Jonathan answered.

When Thadd and Poppy are finished, Thadd sees a red splat on Poppy's cheek.

"What's on your cheek?" Thadd asked.

Poppy wiped the red splat from her cheek to see.

"Oh, I'm not sure. Must have rubbed off of Drooper." Poppy answered.

"I bet it's strawberry from one of the Sloppy Time pies." Thadd said.

Thadd tastes the red splat.

"Nope, that's not strawberry." Thadd said.

Poppy keeps wiping the red splat on her face while Thadd was still tasting.

"I don't know what that is." Thadd said, confused.

"I really think if the producer saw Parker, he would..." Jonathan said.

"She." Paige said, interrupted.

"She. She would realize that she had a star standing right in front of her. She'd probably even give you a promotion for making the introduction." Jonathan explained.

"I can't do that." Paige said.

"But.." Jonathan said.

"It's not gonna happen." Paige said.

"O-okay. I understand." Jonathan said.

Jonathan walked away from Paige to go to Parker.

Austin was with Harley and Zoe as Liv and her friends were standing next to him.

"Austin, you guys can go first." Liv said.

"Oh, you don't have to do that." Austin said.

"Don't worry. We'll let you guys go for your brother." Liv said.

Liv and her friends looked at Harley.

"Happy birthday, Harley." Liv said.

"Happy birthday." Chris, Aaron, Kathy, Bobby, and Dan said together.

"Thank you, guys." Harley said.

Paige walks up to Harley and Zoe with Austin.

"Hey, guys, are you excited to get your photos?" Paige asked.

"Yes." Harley answered.

"Come on, Parker. We'll have to find the producer ourselves." Jonathan said to Parker.

Jonathan takes Parker with him to run off until Paige sees them.

"Hey! You can't go back there." Paige said..

Snorky turns his head to see Paige was trying to catch up on Jonathan and Parker. Thadd sees Paige left.

"This is perfect. Come on." Thadd said.

Thadd takes Poppy with him.

"What are you doing?" Poppy asked as she stops Thadd.

"Let's check out the rest of this place. We can go live from another set." Thadd answered.

"I don't think we should." Poppy said, worriedly.

Babe, it will be a moment we'll remember forever. I promise." Thadd said.

"Okay." Poppy said.

Thadd and poppy also leaves in the other way. Austin, Harley, Zoe were left alone with Liv and the teenagers.

"What about our pictures?" Harley asked to Austin.

"Um, I'm sure she'll be back. Besides, this is kind of awesome. You have the Splits all to yourself." Austin said.

"Come on." Harley said to Zoe.

Harley takes Zoe to get closer to the Banana Splits.

"Hi, I'm Harley. This is my friend Zoe." Harley said to the Splits.

The Banana Splits were standing and not looking down at them.

"Say hi." Harley said to Zoe.

"Uh, sup?" Zoe asked as she introduced herself.

Harley and Zoe looked at Drooper that he has blood on his nose.

"Why is Drooper all wet?" Harley asked.

Drooper turns to see Harley and Zoe and raises his hand out to give her a high-five. Zoe did give Drooper a high-five and he backed away.

"Where's Snorky?" Harley asked.

Harley and Zoe sees that Snorky was not next to Drooper.
