Tuesday morning....
The morning announcements begin as usual, with Principal Isa and her brother sitting at the news desk, Michael behind the camera.
Principal Isa: Good Morning, Berry High.
Coach Isa: This is your Tiger News.
Principal Isa: On this day in--
Suddenly, the door swings open as Sammie, Maria, Principal Hughs, and Detective Flores storm onto the set!
Sammie: Principal Isa, hold it right there you criminal scam!
Principal Isa: Huh?! What are you talking about?
Maria: Don't play dumb. We know everything....Ashley Faris!
Ashley: Wha-what?
Ms. Hughs: Or should we say Lana Harel? Or is it Alexa Safar? You really do like to play pretend, don't you?
Bruce: What? She's a fraud?!
Ashley looks at Bruce with a sneer look.
Bruce: Well, I guess I'm gonna--
Stephen: And don't think we don't know your real identity too, Bruce.
Bruce: And who are you?
Stephen: Stephen Flores. Maria's father....and CCPD's head detective.
Ashley: Michael, stop the broadcast!
In the other classrooms, the students look around in shock and confusion.
Ms. Maddox: What?
Caleb smirks and high-fives Myra.
Michael looks up and shrugs.
Michael: I'm sorry, Principal Isa, something's wrong with the broadcast. I'm not sure what could have happened!
Bruce: Sis, what do we do?
Ashley: Isn't it obvious, ass(beeping)? Run!
Ashley darts out the door before anyone can stop her, Bruce trailing only slightly behind.
Stephen: I'll call for backup. The rest of you, chase after them!
Sammie, Michael, Maria, and Principal Hughs follow Ashley and Bruce out into the library. Ashley glances behind her and kicks off her heels. One files in her direction.
Sammie (thinking): (Whoa! I need to avoid the shoe!)
Sammie swerve and the shoe files past her, safely away from her face.
Sammie: Hey! I know you meant for that to hit me, Ashley!
She runs out the door without a second glance. The four friends make it to the hallway in time to see Ashley and Bruce splitting up.
Ashley: Bruce, go that way! I'll meet you outside!
Bruce: Uh, on it!
Ashley runs down the foreign language hallway, while Bruce heads for history. Sammie follow Ashley.
Sammie: We can worry about Bruce later. Don't let Ashley get away!
Sammie follow Ashley down the foreign language hallway, then on to English, then Math....
Ashley: You don't know when to quit, do you, Clifford?! I should've expelled you right off the bat!
Sammie: Says you, jerk! Give it up!
As Sammie run past the classrooms, students run out to join in. Soon, there's a massive pack following behind her.
Mia: Come on, everyone, run faster!
