(Enter PARTY GOERS, DANNI, LORI, CASEY, JACKIE, MAE, ANGUS, BEA and GREGG)
PARTY GOER 1: And he was like "what," and I was like "Dude come on!"
PARTY GOER 2: Right!
DANNI: Then she told me she had better things to do!
LORI: Sorry?
JACKIE: Look Casey! They really came!
(CASEY looks at GREGG, MAE, ANGUS and BEA)
CASEY: Wait... (Walks up to GREGG) Are you guys the wild ones, that band that used to perform when they were in high school?
MAE: Yeah, that's us.
CASEY: I LOVE you guys!
GREGG: Thanks!
CASEY: Will you please perform for us? Just one song?
GREGG: (Smiles) Let me talk it over with the others.
(GREGG turns to his friends and hands them some sheet music)
GREGG: This is a song I wrote since I came back from college...
MAE: (Looking through the sheet music) I don't see why not...
BEA: Wait, we can't just learn a song within minutes...
ANGUS: We can try!
BEA: (Sighs) Okay...
GREGG: YES!
(GREGG climbs onto a table)
GREGG: May I have everyone's attention please?
(Everyone looks at GREGG)
GREGG: (Growing nervous) Uhm... My name is Gregory Lee... You all can call me Gregg... I'm a member of the band "Wild Ones," and we're here to perform a little song... I wrote this song recently, it's called "Live Anywhere Else," and... Yeah, I hope you enjoy...
(Music starts)
GREGG: (Singing) Mold on this dusty old street Mark alleys where we used to hang Must trace our aching old feet In circles as we throw our time away
ALL: (Singing) I just want to liiiive anywhere else If only I could liiiive anywhere else So come with me, let's liiiiive anywhere else An-y-where... just not here
GREGG: (Singing) Glued to this empty old street Where all the kids came to cry Stuck where past and future meet Watching all the summers fly
ALL: (Singing) I just want to liiiive anywhere else If only I could liiiive anywhere else So come with me, let's liiiiive anywhere else An-y-where... just not here
GREGG: (Singing) And if they ever see my face Could they tell I was alone Never loved by my tired old home!
ALL: (Singing) Do they stop to think What I was before, no They'll never remember when I'm gone I just want to liiiive anywhere else If only I could liiiive anywhere else So come with me, let's liiiiive anywhere else An-y-where... just not here
GREGG: Oh no!
(Music ends, PARTY GOERS applaud)
GREGG: (To MAE) Do you think they have apple juice here?
MAE: Probably...
GREGG: (Bumps into another table) Found it!
ANGUS: See anything suspicious?
BEA: Not yet...
PARTY GOER 3: Who's the newcomers, again?
PARTY GOER 5: I don't know... But according to Casey... And themselves, they're called "Wild Ones," Maybe Jackie invited them.
PARTY GOER 4: They do look like college kids...
MAE: Shouldn't we limit ourselves on the apple juice? We already had pizza and doughnuts, that's enough sugar... I don't want us to have too much.
GREGG: Are you insane? There's no such thing as too much sugar!
MAE: If you say so...
GREGG: I do!
(GREGG grabs the jug of apple juice and starts chugging it)
ANGUS: Do you think anything will actually happen here? It's seems hidden well enough.
BEA: If the kidnapper heard about the party than probably, if not... No.
GREGG: (Finishing his jug of apple juice) You done yet?
MAE: (Drinking hers) What?
GREGG: Are you done, boii?
MAE: (Hiccups) Now I am.
GREGG: Noice.
(GREGG wobbles his way over to ANGUS and BEA, he hugs ANGUS)
GREGG: Teddy bear, I found you!
ANGUS: What?
PARTY GOER 1: Hey, all the apple juice is gone!
GREGG: (Looking at BEA) Woah! The dinosaurs have come back to life!
BEA: I'm a crocodile...
ANGUS: Gregg, are you okay?
GREGG: What?... I'm fine, shut up!
BEA: Gregg, you've had too much sugar... I think you need to go sit down...
GREGG: Fine, but it's because I want to. Not cause you told me to...
(GREGG wobbles over to PARTY GOER 6 who is playing a guitar)
GREGG: (Laughs) There's always some weirdo with a guitar!
(GREGG steals the guitar from PARTY GOER 6)
PARTY GOER 6: Hey!
GREGG: (Holding the guitar above his head) AHHHHHH!
PARTY GOER 6: Uh... Keep it...
(PARTY GOER 6 runs off, exit PARTY GOER 6)
GREGG: As I was saying... There's always a weirdo with a guitar... They're like: "I sing about my feelings cause I play guitar!"
MAE: Gregg, calm down... Take a chill pill...
GREGG: Chill pill, shmill pill!
MAE: What?
(GREGG starts applauding himself, then stands on a bucket)
GREGG: I'm a total trash mammal!
(GREGG throws up behind the bucket)
MAE: Gregg, are you okay?
GREGG: I'm fine...
(ANGUS and BEA turn to leave. Enter EIDE, he/she kidnaps DANNI. GREGG sees EIDE but then he/she disappears. Exit EIDE and DANNI)
GREGG: Guys, I just witnessed someone being being kidnapped! By a giant, black, shadowy figure!
BEA: Are you losing your mind?
MAE: (Looks around) A couple people are missing... That were here at first... But now they're gone...
BEA: They could've left.
ANGUS: True... I agree with Bea, Gregg is losing his mind...
GREGG: I am not losing my mind! I know what I saw!
BEA: Me and Mae will head back to the car... You knock some sense into Gregg...
(Exit MAE and BEA)
ANGUS: Gregg, you need to start being more realistic.
GREGG: What are you talking about? I'm one hundred percent realistic!
ANGUS: You're an orange dog! How's that realistic?
GREGG: Yeah? Well, you're a brown bear! How's that realistic?.... Oh.
ANGUS: I used to wonder why you dropped out... I used to be surprised... Now, I'm not so surprised...
GREGG: (Hurt) Ouch... You're supposed to be my friend! You don't have to agree with me, but you can at least support me... I didn't have a choice... I was kicked out because I'm an orange dog! Never thought I'd hear you criticize me because of it... But I was wrong.
(Exit GREGG, Running and crying)
ANGUS: Gregg wait!
(Exit ALL)
