AFTERNOON
LANI
IS
UNPACKING
HER
BACKPACK.
NAT
AND
TONI
SIT
AROUND
THE
KITCHEN
TABLE.
TONI
How
was
your
day?
LANI
So
boring.
Everyone
is
talking
about
some
stupid
talent
show.
NAT
What’s
so
bad
about
talent
shows?
LANI
I
hate
them.
They’re
never
any
fun.
It’s
an
excuse
for
people
without
any
talent
to
show
off.
TONI
Well,
I
was
in
one
when
I
was
your
age.
NAT
…so
was
I.
LANI
LOOKS
AT
BOTH
OF
THEM

Exactly.
4. 4
INT.
LIVING
ROOM
–
SAME
TIME
BYRON,
DAWN,
AND
TOYMAN
ARE
SITTING
AROUND
TALKING.
DAWN
I
know
what
I’m
going
to
do
in
the
talent
show.
BYRON/TOYMAN
What?
DAWN
I’m
still
working
on
that
one.
BYRON
Well,
I
know
what
I’m
gonna
do.
TOYMAN
What’s
that?
BYRON
I
thought
I’d
let
people
just
enjoy
my
handsomeness.
DEAN
Toyman,
what
about
you?
TOYMAN
Of
course
I’m
in.
You
guys
heard
of
Justin
Bieber?
I’m
even
bieberer
than
him.
BYRON
So
you’re
gonna
be
a
singer?
TOYMAN
Just
listen…
5. 5
TOYMAN
STARTS
SINGING
HIGH
NOTES
IN
A
SCARY,
SCREECHY
VOICE.
BYRON
Oh
my
Lord.
The
cat
just
died.
JUST
THEN,
NAT,
LANI,
AND
TONI
ENTER
IN
A
RUSH
NAT
Was
someone
just
murdered
in
here?
TONI
Did
someone
run
a
fork
across
a
blackboard?
LANI
I
can’t
get
that
noise
out
of
my
head!
GET
IT
OUT!
PLEASE,
GET
IT
OUT!
BYRON
It
was
Toyman
singing.
LANI
…KEEP
IT
IN!
Keep
that
beautiful
noise
in
my
head!
TOYMAN
That
was
just
me
practicing
for
the
talent
show.
LANI
Oh,
my
gosh.
I
LOVE
talent
shows!
NAT
AND
TONI

OTHER
IN
AMAZEMENT

LATER

LANI
EXPLAINS
HER
PLANS
FOR
THE
TALENT
SHOW
NAT
Lani,
I
thought
you
said
you
didn’t
like
talent
shows?
LANI
Me?
That
wasn’t
me!
That
was
my
evil
twin,
Mani.
I
personally
loooovvvve
talent
shows.
TONI
Lani,
you’re
up
to
something,
aren’t
you?
LANI
You
bet
I
am.
Here’s
the
plan.
I’m
going
to
get
to
be
a
judge
at
the
talent
show
and
then
you
know
who
is
going
to
win.
NAT
Who?
LANI
Toyman,
of
course!
NAT
Toyman
sounds
like
he’s
got
a
Jalapeno
Nacho
Cheese
Dorito
caught
in
his
throat.
Toni
Why
would
you
want
him
to
win?
LANI
Isn’t
it
obvious?
If
he
wins,
he’ll
be
so
grateful,
he’ll
marry
me,
we’ll
have
four
children,
two
dogs,
move
upstairs
and
live
with
you
guys.
7. 7
NAT
Whoa!
Slow
down…You’re
not
moving
upstairs.
LANI
Why
not?
NAT
Because
we
have
a
one
story
house…and
you’re
crazy.
TONI
Besides,
there’s
one
other
problem.
WE
HEAR
TOYMAN’S
SHRIEKING,
SCREAMING
VOICE
FROM
THE
OTHER
ROOM.
INT.

NAT
AND
TONI
ARE
SITTING
AROUND
TALKING
NAT
Can
you
believe
how
crazy
these
kids
are
about
a
talent
show?
TONI
Well,
I
remember
I
was
in
a
talent
show
about
their
age.
I
was
so
good,
I
came
in
second.

PRESENT
DAY
TONI
Yeah,
there
was
just
one
boy
who
was
better
than
me.
NAT
I
was
in
a
talent
show
when
I
was
a
young
boy,
too.
And
you
know,
I
won.
There
was
this
horrible
baton
twirler
before
me.
TONI
Wait.
Were
you
the
boy
who
could
drink
the
chocolate
milk
while
doing
the
splits?
NAT
YES!
THAT
WAS
ME!
Wait
a
minute,
I
married
the
girl
who
stunk.
TONI
You
know
where
you’re
sleeping
tonight,
right?
NAT
Where?

LANI
(CONT)
I
hear
you’re
thinking
about
reconsidering
being
a
judge.
GRACE
What
are
you
talking
about?
I’ve
dreamt
of
being
a
judge
my
whole
life.
Only
a
severe
sickness
could
keep
me
from
doing
this.
LANI
GETS
A
LIGHT
BULB.
SHE
SNEEZES
HORRIBLY
ON
GRACE
LANI
I’m
so
sorry.
I’m
getting
over
Swedish…
(thinks,
then)
Swedish
Meatballia
disease.
LANI
SNEEZES
AGAIN
GRACE
What’s
that?
10. 10
LANI
It’s
horrible.
At
first
you
think
you’re
okay.
GRACE
Like
me?
LANI
Exactly
like
you.
Then
you
feel
a
chill.
GRACE
SHIVERS
LANI
(CONT)
Then
you
can’t
stop
itching.
GRACE
STARTS
ITCHING
HER
ARMS.
GRACE
Like
me?
LANI
(CONT)
Exactly
like
you.
And
then,
if
you
don’t
get
help
right
away,
your
head
blows
up…it
kinda
looks
like
meatballs.
GRACE
STARTS
RUNNING
DOWN
THE

LANI

What
about
