"Oh hey, what's up man?" Rafe asks Leo when he enters Rafe's bedroom through the window. He was looking at the present.

"Oh cool, you found it!" Leo exclaims. Rafe started to open the card.

"Ah man, don't read the card, then things will get sappy and whatever, and I hate that. Just; open the present."

"Alright." Rafe agrees. He opens the present.

"I'd figure that your old notebook—may it Rest In Peace—was getting full so, I thought you'd need a new one." Leo explains.

"It's awesome man, thank you. But, I mean all my best stuff was in my last book! Comics, Inventions..."

"Expertly drawn boobs." Leo adds, I try not to laugh.

"Dude! Who is next to you?" Rafe whispers, slightly mad.

[RAFE]

"Your crush." Leo mouthed, mocking me.

"Seriously!" I whisper, so Tegan couldn't hear me.
"Like the Manlathians, you made their star cruiser, you made their planet, you even made their battle cry!" Leo says a little louder to change the subject.

"Grack-tung!" I recall.

"Grack freaking tung!" Leo repeats eight more enthusiasm.

"You made their language, their star cruiser night club!"

"Shhh!" I whisper, quietly.

"Okay, you don't want them to know that I'm here!"

"They think you are a bad influence."

"Well they're not wrong about that!"

[TEAGAN]

"Okay, back to the book thing!" I announce, as we walk into the basement.

"Are you ready for the greatest idea in the history of ideas?" Leo asks. "Dwight destroyed your book right? So, why don't we destroy his?"

"Yeah, I guess we take the shredder from the back—" Rafe suggests, but his head is in the wrong place.

"N-n-n-n-n-n-n-no. We don't wanna shred the actual book, we wanna shred the actual rules!"

"Leo, are you kidding me? And get kicked out of another school? Tegan and I would be disowned!"

"No you won't!" Leo defends. "Because we're gunna be careful, and nobody's gunna know it's us!"
"So we do it anonymously?" Rafe asks.

"Exactly!" Me and Leo exclaim.

Leo got on a bucket. "It is up to us to speak for the voiceless, to be vigilantes for freedom! We've got 8 weeks before Dwight gets to measure our worth with a bunch of bubbles on a scantron! I am sick of people trying to suck the fun out of childhood. Let's stop the suck, let's show them that we don't give a...what rhymes with suck?" Leo asks.

"Nothing good." Me and Rafe realize.

"Let's stick it to the man!" He does our hand shake to both of us.
