It's the 10th of January, 2022. A calendar on the wall shows that the 10th has been circled with an orange crayon. Soon enough, Logan and Madison are seen in the living room, eating from a large bowl of ramen. They are giggling about something.
Logan: You know I'm so grateful for having you as the love of my life. Firstly, you've got a great personality. Secondly, I actually get something for my birthday tomorrow [laugh track]
Madison: Don't be cheesy, Hilson. And mine is just a month away.
Logan: On the 10th, too? (gushes) Babe?
Logan/Madison: It's like we're made for each other. (They hug dramatically) [laugh track]
Madison: I love how we're the only ones here. We can have an early present before the main birthday.
Logan: I love the sound of that. Just one problem. (Kelsea walks into the living room with a bag of potato chips. Apparently, she's upset about something)
Kelsea: Mr Logan, I have something urgent to tell you. Good morning, Miss Madison.
Logan: Kelsea? I'm not going to break you into an audition to get Jace Norman's autograph [brief laugh track]
Kelsea: No, my uncle Nigel said he needs you at a movie premiere tomorrow, and you really have to go. And in case you're wondering why he didn't tell you earlier, it's because he's kind of a bigger name than yours [laugh track]
Madison: I hate to agree, but Logan, you need to go for it. You're currently on an awful hit reality show, and with more recognition and the right people, you'll be better than Nigel. And then I get more than just chocolate sunglasses on my birthday [laugh track]
Logan: Well played. (stands up) Fine, I'll go. I'll call Nigel and get ready. (He leaves the two. Madison quickly turns to Kelsea with a curious look)
Madison: Kelsea, are you sure that will work?
Kelsea: Yes, for two reasons. Firstly, we need to really wow him this year. Also, we do not want to see Logan after he gets his early present. I'm greatly offended by trauma.
Madison: Some trauma helps you heal
Kelsea: (cuts in) Not this one [heavy laugh track]...
Later...
Tracy: (going through some clothes stacked up in a heap on the bedroom floor) You know, Jesse. It's so good that you're allowing Gabrielle to have your baby clothes. (She holds up a blue T-shirt) Your mom said you always barfed on it. Do you remember this?
Jesse: No, ma'am. I was one [laugh track]
Tracy: Hey, Jesse. I think someone's supposed to be here with us.
Danny: (suddenly pops out) Someone like me?! (The two shriek in surprise) [laugh track] Amateurs. Wanna see another one?
Tracy: (quickly holds Jesse's hand as though to protect him) Danny, we have a surprise party to plan, so do not spoil it for us.
Tracy/Jesse: (the two freeze at the exact same time. The camera creates an illusion of a mash up of their bodies into one symmetry before closing in on their eyes - Jesse's glowing left green iris and Tracy's regular right blue eye. However, instead of the green wave light, it's dark purple in colour. The vision opens like a tunnel to show Madison and Rudra with annoyed looks on their faces)
[Madison: You all had one job to do! You always ruin his happiness.
Rudra: Big-time messed up! I'm leaving here...]
(The vision closes, revealing the purple wave of light before the camera shows their eye mash-up. Their eyes and bodies quickly separate, and the camera shows them in full view. They quickly regain consciousness and look at each other)
Tracy/Jesse: The party's a disaster! (pauses quickly and exhales) Woah [laugh track]. (Kelsea happens to walk in at the time)
Kelsea: What's going on?
Danny: (excitedly) I think Tracy just got superpowers! She froze like Jesse.
Tracy: Yeah. And one of us will ruin Logan's birthday. (sleekly points at Danny) Like the person always does [laugh track]
Danny: As usual, I'm the scapegoat.
Jesse: Rudra and Madison were so upset in the vision. Obviously, Madison is his girlfriend. That's understandable.
Kelsea: And Rudra is a fan boy. That's a turn-off.
Tracy: You live with one. He's your cousin's best friend.
Kelsea: Ex best friend. Haven't you wondered why Logan's the ex? [heavy laugh track]
Tracy: I'm outta here (She leaves the children)
Danny: (to Kelsea and Jesse) We have to do something quickly. Madison's anger is tolerable, but for Rudra? Harleen told me she prefers me being crazy to Rudra being upset. It was quite an insult [brief laugh track]
Jesse: We can't upset anyone right now. Liam is with Nigel at the movie premiere, and we have the whole day to be productive. We can't afford to be lazy. Tracy and her friends aren't as well...
