No Pov:

Lois walked down the busy school hallway to her "office", clearly very annoyed.

Lois: (Mumbling) No thank you Daily Planet, I don't want to take that internship. (Normal) Ugh! That was the scoop of the century! And he just threw that opportunity away like that! I'll show that kid!

She enters her office to find Leslie sitting on her desk and Mason standing next to her, a stack of papers in his hands.

Lois: (To Mason) You. Don't you already have a news channel to take care of?

Mason: I already asked the principal about what we're going to ask you. He said (Pulling out a sock puppet) "Tell that Lois kid with the outdated newspaper about your plan. Surely she's desperate for something."

Lois groans in annoyance and heads to her desk.

Lois: Well, I see you two let yourselves in. Again. What brings you by?

Leslie: Just saving your newspaper, Lois. We've got an idea that'll make it at least somewhat readable.

Lois: Make it fast. I got deadlines.

Leslie: Picture this; a gossip column written by yours truly.

Mason: And edited by me. We already have pages of the top gossip in the city.

Lois: Not a chance.

Leslie: What? Why not? Worried we'll upstage the puff pieces you write? (Pulls out newspaper) Saving cats. Seriously?

Lois: Look, Willis. You got spunk, gumption, bravado, all qualities of a great reporter, but gossip columns are too mean and not to put too fine a point at it, so are you and your little lacky.

Leslie: Hey! You can't call my brother that!

Lois: See? You just proved my point. If that's all it takes to get you angry, then a gossip column could be way worse.

Leslie was seething with anger, but a part of her couldn't argue with that logic.

Lois: Anything else?

Mason: Well this was a waste of our time. (Tosses papers in the air) Let's go, sis.

The two start to leave when Leslie notices an outlet. An outlet that's plugged into Lois's laptop. She looks at the reporter to see her drinking coffee, then looks at Mason, who returns a mischievous grin. Leslie pulls out her phone, rubs her fingers to create a small amount of electricity, and blows it into the outlet, which travels through the plug and into the laptop, making it go on the fritz and making Lois spill her coffee on her. Leslie takes a picture and the scene cuts to her room, where she's about to post it online.

Leslie: (Laughs) To mean, eh, Lois Lame? Well, the public loves mean, and I'm gonna give them all they can handle. And a side note, no one talks to my baby brother that way.

She clicks the post button on her computer and her followers start skyrocketing. Cut to a montage of Leslie using her electricity to play pranks on other people. First was Olsen, who was in a red room hanging pictures. Leslie used her powers to change the lights to normal, ruining Olsen's pictures of Superman. Next was Barbi, AKA, Cheetah, where Leslie's electricity made the door slam in front of the diva in yellow. This one was Mason's favorite. Barry Allen, AKA The Flash, was next, using her powers to make him headbutt on the top door frame. Finally, was Garth, who just seems to be everyone's favorite punching bag. He was on the verge of tears as he was about to dissect a starfish.

Garth: You deserve better buddy.

Leslie used her electricity to jump from Garth's phone and into the starfish where she used it to jump onto his face, causing him to fall onto the floor. The last photo was on Kara's phone, where she and the rest of the group were laughing. Save for Diana, who was shocked and appalled.
