The Birthday Boy/Script

''[Wyatt walks through the mall, a sad look on his face. Jen and Caitlin rush up to him, smiles on their faces.]'' Jen and Caitlin: "Happy birthday!" [They give him a big hug.] Wyatt: [squeezing out] "Okay, okay, that's enough!" Caitlin: "What? Today is your birthday, right?" Wyatt: "Yes, and I hate birthdays. So can we just forget about it? Please?" Caitlin: "But–how can you hate birthdays?" Wyatt: "Because my parents insist on throwing theme parties every year." Caitlin: "That sounds like fun." Wyatt: "Yeah, except that it's a big family. All the good themes were snapped up years ago." Caitlin: "So? Just be creative!" Jen: "That's the problem. They're a little too creative. Tell her." Wyatt: "Two years ago, the theme was 'Diseases We're Glad We Don't Have.'" Jen: "And last year's was 'The Color Brown.' All the presents, drinks, food–everything was brown." Caitlin: "That's atrocious! So what's this year's theme?" [Wyatt pulls out a soda-drinking hat and puts it on.] Wyatt: "'Trailer Park Party.'" Caitlin: "Ooh. That's bad." Wyatt: "Yeah. The only good thing about Serena being out of town is that she won't see me wearing it."

''[Jude is playing on the computer. Jen, Caitlin, and Wyatt walk up to the table.]'' Jen: "Well I'm gonna make sure you have an awesome birthday this year." Wyatt: "That's nice, but no thanks." Jen: "It's officially beyond your control! Come back here at six, and be prepared to have fun." Wyatt: "Fine. As long as I don't have to pretend to like it." [Jude's computer beeps.] Jude: "Yes!" [He looks up and sees his friends.] "Hey dude, nice hat." Wyatt: "You like it? Knock yourself out." Jude: "Seriously? Right on." [Wyatt puts it on him.] "Stylish." [taking a slurp] "Mmm. Cream soda." Wyatt: "This is going to be a long day." ''[Wyatt sighs and gets up. Jude takes the straw from his mouth and burps.]''

''The opening credits roll. The title of this episode is The Birthday Boy''

''[Jen, Caitlin, and Jude are at the Big Squeeze. Jude is still playing on his laptop.]'' Jen: "Did you see how bummed he is? We have to give Wyatt an awesome birthday." Caitlin: "Maybe we should just take him out for burgers and milkshakes." Jen: "No. This has to be really big if we're going to get his mind off Serena." Caitlin: "And his icky family party." ''[Jen picks up her phone and dials. The call goes over to Nikki, working at the Khaki Barn.]'' Nikki: "House of Dread, how may I direct your call?" Jen: "We're conferencing, hang on." [Jen's next call is to Jonesy, who is reading a book while wearing a banana suit.] Jonesy: "Fruit World, can I help you?" Jen: "Hey. It's me and Nikki." Nikki: "How's the new job going?" Jonesy: "I'm a giant banana. How goes it at the Barn?" Nikki: "Oh, you know, mindless, endless boredom. The usual." Fruit World Manager: "Jonesy! Are you on the phone?" Jonesy: "Is that against store policy?" Fruit World Manager: "Yes!" Jonesy: "Then no." [returning to the call] "Sup?" Jen: "It's Wyatt's birthday, and we're gonna throw him a huge party." Jonesy: "Cool." Jen: "Nikki, you're on gift detail." Nikki: "Done. I'll grab him a DVD." Jen: "Jonesy, you're the caterer. I'm thinking coffee slushes and a bunch of junk food." Jonesy: "No can do. First day on the job, and I don't get off until six." Fruit World Manager: "Jonesy! I thought I said no phone calls! You're fired!" Jonesy: [returning to the call] "Well that was quick." Jen: "So you can get the food now?" Jonesy: "I'm on it." Jen: "Great. Be at the lemon at six." Jonesy: "Cool." Jen: "Cool." Nikki: "Cool." [The call ends.] Jen: "I'll get a giant card and the wrapping paper. And Jude? Jude!" Jude: [starting] "What?" Jen: "Can you get the birthday cake?" Caitlin: "Ooh! Maybe you can get one with a picture airbrushed on it!" Jude: "Good call. So whose picture should we put on it?" Jen: "Wyatt's, Jude." Jude: "Right." [He returns to his game and his sodas.] Jen: "So, that's everything." Caitlin: "Wyatt's gonna be so excited! This was a great idea, Jen."

Kristen: "Welcome to the Khaki Barn!" ''[Nikki is bored at work. Jonesy comes in and thumps a load of books down on the sales counter.]'' Jonesy: "Whatever you want, I'll pay, just help me, please!" Nikki: "My time is very valuable. Five hundred dollars." Jonesy: "Can we set up some sort of installment plan?" Nikki: "With your credit rating? I told you, I'm not helping you study for the geography exam." Jonesy: "But you always help me!" Nikki: "Yeah, and I always get burned." Jonesy: [shocked] "Uuf! Since when?" Nikki: "'Kay, let's see. Well, there's the time you fell asleep while I was talking." Jonesy: "Okay, but–" Nikki: "And the time you spent the whole afternoon hitting on the girl beside us in the library." Jonesy: "That was different! She was hot." Nikki: "Hmm." Jonesy: [quickly covering up] "But I've learned from my mistakes. C'mon. If you don't help me I'm gonna flunk. I'll have to repeat the course! Again!" Nikki: "Fine. I'll do it." Jonesy: "Yes!" Nikki: "If you admit once and for all that I'm smarter than you." Jonesy: "No way." Nikki: "Welp, suit yourself. If you'll excuse me, I have some very important folding to do." Jonesy: "Come on, there must be some other way!" Nikki: "Afraid not." Jonesy: "You're cruel. You know that? Cruel." Nikki: "Mmm-hmm." Jonesy: "Okay. Nikki, you're smarter then me." Nikki: "Like you mean it." Jonesy: "Okay, okay, you're smarter than me, you are! Nikki's smarter than me!!!" Nikki: "That's better. Oh, and it's smarter than I."

[Jude is still playing while Jen and Caitlin plan the party.] Jude: "Nice, instant street cred point!" Caitlin: [looking around the food court] "Lighting is key to any good party. Think we can rent a disco ball?" Jen: "Uh, that might be overkill." [Jude's computer beeps.] Jude: "No, don't go there! Aw, dude! You went there." Jen: "Okay, what are you doing?" Jude: "Playing my new game. Simu-Mall." Caitlin: "Those games are such a waste of time." Jen: "Yeah. Ooh, my simu-character sat on the simu-couch and drank simu-coffee. How thrilling." Jude: "This is different! I've set the game up to be a perfect replica of our mall and everyone in it. See?" [Jen and Caitlin take a look.] Jen and Caitlin: "Hmm..." Caitlin: "There's a simu-lemon?" Jude: "Yep! And there's the whole simu-gang!" [He presses a button, and a cheer rises.] Caitlin: "Anyway, back to the party. What about scented candles?" Jen: [getting sucked into Jude's game] "Why aren't you getting any customers at the simu-Stick It?" Jude: "I dunno, but simu-Jude's hurting! No cheese, no cheeseburgers." Caitlin: "Uh, Jen?" Jen: "Maybe it's because the simu-trash in the simu-Stick It is totally piling up. Look." Jude: [gasping] "I'll just make simu-Jude get rid of it." [He types.] Jen: "Cool!" Caitlin: "Wow! I wish it was that easy in real life." [She pushes a trash can away for pickup.]

[Jonesy and Nikki are studying in one of the Khaki Barn's changing rooms.] Nikki: "The Swiss terrain is distinguished by?" Jonesy: "An overabundance of yodelers?" Nikki: "Look, I could be getting Wyatt's birthday present right now." Jonesy: "But geography is so boring!" Nikki: "Um, I know, I passed this course last year, remember?" [Kirsten knocks on the door.] Kirsten: "Excuse me? How do those khakis in sizes 28, 30, 32 34 and 36 fit?" Jonesy: "Uh, do you have a size 42?" Kirsten: "I'll look in the back!" Nikki: "Nice. There is no 42. But she'll be looking for hours!" Jonesy: "Just you and me again." Nikki: "Uh, okay. Back to the books." Jonesy: "Okay, but if I answer the next question right, you have to answer a question for me." Nikki: "Yeah, okay. What provinces do the Rocky Mountains cross into?" Jonesy: "British Colombia and Alberta." Nikki: "Wow! You actually got one right." Jonesy: "Okay. So now you have to answer one. How come we haven't gone out on another date?" Nikki: "What? Uh...I don't know. Next–" Jonesy: "You know we connect." Nikki: "Jonesy, we're supposed to be studying." Jonesy: "You're single, I'm single..." Nikki: "Can we not talk about this right now?" Jonesy: "Fine. But, you know you want me." Nikki: "Yeah, okay, whatever. On to France." Jonesy: "Ah, the city of love." Nikki: "Country, Jonesy. Country."

[Jen is watching Jude play.] Jude: "Nice!" Jen: "Good!" Jude: "Uh-oh!" Jen: "No!" [A cash register dings, and both exhale in relief.] Jude: "Refill!" ''[Jen changes out his cans of soda for new ones. Caitlin watches disapprovingly.]'' Caitlin: "You guys have to stop this. We've got cakes to buy, cards to sign, decorations to–" [gasping] "Why is simu-Caitlin wearing that heinous sweater?" Jude: "You don't like it?" Caitlin: "Do you want me to look like a librarian? Change it." Jude: "The only way to do that is to make simu-Caitlin go shopping." Caitlin: [interested] "You can shop?!?" [She takes a seat.] "Start on the fourth level. They get all the new collections first." [gasping] "Is that simu-Prada? Ooh, go there, go go go go go go!"

''[Jonesy and Nikki are still studying. Jonesy is staring at her dopily.]'' Nikki: "Jonesy. Jonesy? Ugh. Maybe we should go somewhere less distracting." ''[Nikki's place of choice is the mall fountain. All around are chaos and loud noises.]'' Nikki: "Much better."

[The three are playing when Wyatt walks up.] Jude: "Check it out. It's simu-Wyatt but in real life." Wyatt: "Don't tell me you're all becoming simu-nerds." Jen: "Ssh. We're just about to score a better table at the simu-food court." Wyatt: "Correction: you already are simu-nerds." [Jude's computer beeps.] Jude: "Whoa, simu-Caitlin just passed simu-Wyatt on the cool scale." Wyatt: "What?" Caitlin: "It's because of my new fashions. Good clothes open doors." Wyatt: "Well, what if simu-Wyatt was fronting a band?" Jude: "I'm on it." Wyatt: "Nice! I should go. See you guys tonight." Jude: "Right." Jen: "Yeah." Caitlin: "Later." Jude: [looking up] "Aren't we supposed to be doing something?" [Jude's computer clangs loudly.] Caitlin: "Look! We won the simu-lottery! We're rich!" [Jen and Caitlin squeal in excitement.]

[Jonesy and Nikki are still studying by the mall fountain.] Jonesy: "Madrid, Spain; Sofia, Bulgaria; and Bern, Switzerland." Nikki: "You just correctly named every country and capital in Europe!" Jonesy: "I did? Who's the man!" ''[Sounds draw Nikki's attention. Stores all around the mall are closing.]'' Nikki: "Oh no! It's six already!" Jonesy: "Uh oh. Wyatt's birthday!" Nikki: "Nice work, Jonesy." Jonesy: "What? You're the one who lost track of time." Nikki: "Maybe instead of blaming me you should be getting snacks." Jonesy: "Well, maybe you should be buying the DVD!" Nikki: "Uh–" ''[Nikki is about to rebut this when both sides realize the other has a point. They scurry off.]''

[The three are still playing when Wyatt walks up at the scheduled time.] Wyatt: "Alright. I'm here. Do your worst." Jude: "Huh?" Wyatt: "You said to be here at six for the birthday torture. I'm here." Jen: "Uh–I–uh–said six thirty." Wyatt: "No you didn't." Caitlin: "Yes she did! She said 6:30. I heard it, six thirty." Jen: "And you almost ruined your surprise! Now go away and, uh, come back in half an hour!" Wyatt: "Alright, I'll be back." [He walks off.] Jen: [calling after him] "You're gonna love it, I promise!" Jude: "He's gone." [A moment later, all three realize how much they have to do.] Caitlin, Jen, and Jude: "AAAAHHH!" [They run around, looking for ideas.] Jude: [coming back for his laptop] "C'mon, simu-Jude, we've got work to do!"

[The gang runs around the mall, trying to find an open store.] Jen: "Please! Just one card! Any card!" Jonesy: [running into the just-closed doors of Grind Me] "Aww!" [Charmaine points to her wrist and walks away.] Jonesy: "C'mon!" Caitlin: "No!" [A door shuts in her face.] Nikki: [pounding on Spin This] "C'mon!"

[All have given up and returned to the Big Squeeze.] Jen: "Okay. The card store was closed, but at least we've got everything else." Caitlin, Nikki, and Jonesy: "Uhh..." Jude: "I guess." Jen: "We did get everything else, right?" [Caitlin sighs.] "Oh no! What are we gonna do? Wyatt will be back soon!" Jonesy: "All right, that's it! I'm officially taking this party over! Now didn't I see a party going on somewhere already?" Jen: "Yeah, at Albatross & Finch. So?" Jonesy: "Hmm." [He smiles.] Jen: "Oh no way, Jonesy, we'd never pull it off!" Jonesy: "Why not?" Caitlin: "We could what? Why not what?" Jen: "Pass it off as a party for Wyatt." Nikki: "There's no way. He'll never buy it." Jonesy: "I know the store. I worked there for two days. I can get us in!" Caitlin: "We'll never fit in! All those Albatross people are so snobby!" Jonesy: "We can do this, guys. It'll be hard, sure!" [Pomp and Circumstance begins to play.] "But if we succeed, it'll go down in history as the single greatest party scam of all time! Now, who's with me?" Jude: "I am with you, dude!" Jonesy: "For Wyatt." Jen: "For Wyatt." Caitlin: "I'm in." Nikki: "Me too." Jude: "Slammin'! Let's rock this party!" Jen, Jude, Caitlin, Jonesy, and Nikki: "All right!"

''[The A&F is decorated in shades of pink and white. Hearts are all around.]'' Jude: "What's with all the wedding gear?" [A cake is wheeled past, a bride and groom on the top of it.] Nikki: "It's a bridal shower?"

[The five have gotten into the party.] Jonesy: "I'll admit, the wedding thing is a bit of a setback." Nikki: "Y'think?" Jonesy: "But we proceed as planned." Jen: "Agreed. Just act snooty and get rid of any suspicious decorations. Wyatt will never know this isn't really his birthday party." Caitlin: "Right!" Nikki: [sarcastic] "Oh yeah. It's foolproof." ''[The gang walk around the store. Caitlin finds a bouquet.]'' Caitlin: "Eee!" [She throws it out, and it hits Stuart Goldstein.] "Ooh." Jude: [finding the snack table] "Check it out, this party even comes with munchies!" ''[Jonesy tears down a collage of some good times the soon-to-be-wed couple has had together, wads it up, and kicks it out of the store. It hits Stuart Goldstein.]'' Nikki: "Good job. Now all we have to do is find the bride-to-be and shove her into a closet." Jonesy: "I'm on her." Nikki: [sighing] "Let's spread out. We've got a lot of ground to cover." Jonesy: "Right. Nikki and I will take the back of the store. Jude, you take the front; Jen and Caitlin, you've got ten minutes to work the middle, then go to pick up Wyatt. Go."

''[What follows is massive wreckage as the gang work their way through the store, stealthily tearing down placards, popping balloons, and destroying flowers. It comes to a head when Jude plans to whip the pink cloth off of the present table.]'' Jen: "No way, Jude." Jude: "Don't worry, I've done this before." ''[Jude yanks. Predictably, the presents crash to the floor.]''

[Jen and Caitlin lead a blindfolded Wyatt to the store.] Wyatt: "You know, the only things I hate more than birthdays, are surprises." ''[The two push him forward and notice Jude playing his game. They stop, but Wyatt does not.]'' Jen: "Jude! Stop playing that game!" Caitlin: "Yeah, this is important! The game can wait!" Jude: "Fine. I'll make sure they eat, and then put it down. Promise." Jen: "Fine, just hurry." [realizing] "Where is he? Wyatt?!?" Caitlin: "We lost him!" Wyatt: [still walking] "Guys? A little help?" [He almost bumps into a girl in a blue sweater.] Caitlin: "Whoops! Sorry. Some people can't handle party games!" ''[Caitlin leads him back to the center of the store. Wyatt takes off his blindfold and gasps.]'' Wyatt: "No way! All this is for me?" Caitlin: "Duh! Of course it is, silly!" [She surreptitiously points for Jen to remove a wedding bell decoration.] "C'mon, let's get you a soda." ''[Caitlin leads Wyatt to the drink table. Jen removes the bells and throws them out. They hit Jude on the head.]'' Jude: "Oof!" ''[Jonesy is removing decorations from the food table. A Greeter God walks up behind him.]'' Blonde Greeter God: "What do you think you're doing?" Jonesy: "Some jerk forgot to decorate the buffet table! Can you believe it?" Blonde Greeter God: "Oh, well, yeah. Okay. Keep up the good work." [He leaves.] Nikki: [running up] "He's here!" [Wyatt is hanging out with Jude, Jen, and Caitlin.] Wyatt: "I can't get over how many people came to wish me a happy birthday!" Jen: "You're a popular guy." Wyatt: [to a Greeter God] "Thank you so much for being here!" Greeter God: "Wouldn't miss it for the world, man. Something like this only happens once in your life. If you're lucky." [Something about this rings hollow with Wyatt.] Jude: [taking a sip from his drink hat] "Ah. Quality refreshments, dude." [The Greeter God walks off.] Wyatt: "Who was he again?" Jude: "Uh–that was–you know–the dude, from that thing last summer?" Caitlin: [looking for a distraction] "Hey! Pretty girl! Do you know Wyatt?" Jill: "No." Wyatt: "Hey." Jill: [interested] "Hey." Caitlin: "Today is Wyatt's sixteenth birthday!" Jill: "Great. Wanna grab something to eat?" Wyatt: "Sure." [He goes with her.] Jude: "Dude, Wyatt's got a girlfriend, remember?" Caitlin: "I know, but we needed a distraction!" Jude: "Whoa. You sure picked a good one." [Wyatt is hanging out with Jill at the buffet table.] Wyatt: [picking up a chocolate] "Whoa! This must have cost a fortune!" Jen: "You're worth it." Wyatt: "Why do the chocolates look like brides?" [Jen quickly grabs the chocolate and stuffs it in her mouth.] Jen: [mouth full] "Mmm. Good." ''[Wyatt goes for another chocolate, but Jen grabs the tray. She proceeds to scarf down the candies.]'' Caitlin: "She's a real chocoholic. It's a problem." [Jen burps.] Wyatt: [turning to Jill] "So, how do you know the gang?" [noticing the bride] "And why is that girl wearing that thing on her head?" ''[As a distraction, Jen pretends to choke. Caitlin does the Heimlich, and she coughs up chocolate.]'' Jill: "Eww, gross!"

[Jonesy is popping heart-shaped balloons.] Nikki: [whispering] "How's it going?" Jonesy: "Good. Wyatt met a hot chick." Nikki: "I hope she's not the bride." [Jonesy takes a balloon and drinks the helium from inside.] Jonesy: [high-pitched] "So, just give me one good reason why you don't want to go out with me." Nikki: [chuckling] "Jonesy, c'mon! We've been over this. It's not that I don't want to–" Jonesy: [high-pitched] "So you do want to! Sweet!" Nikki: "No. I didn't say that–" Jonesy: [high-pitched, noticing Wyatt] "Whoa whoa whoa whoa." Nikki: "Oh no. Looks like they need backup. C'mon."

[Nikki runs up to Jen, who is watching Wyatt and Jill.] Nikki: "So how's the birthday boy?" Jen: [exhaling] "Distracted." [Caitlin and Jonesy try to remove a huge banner and, in doing so, fall over.] Caitlin: "Whoa!" Jonesy: "Ow!" Wyatt: [looking towards the clatter] "What was that?" Jen: "Uh, er, hey, I'll bet I can stuff three drumsticks in my mouth at once!" [She stuffs three chicken legs into her mouth.] "How cool is that, eh?" Wyatt: "Right..." Jill: "Your friends are kind of weird, Wyatt. Let's go grab a drink." ''[The two walk off. Jen spits out the drumsticks.]''

[Jill and Wyatt are by the drink table.] Jill: "Grab me a pop. I'll be right back." [Jill leaves to attend to something, and Wyatt turns around to see his friends grinning nervously.] Wyatt: "Great party, guys. Just one question: why is the party here?" Jude: "Oh, um–" Jen: "Because–" Nikki: "It was the last place you'd ever think we'd have it!" [They nod.] Wyatt: "I can't believe how many people you got to come out to this!" Jen: "Well, Jonesy's pretty persuasive." Wyatt: [spying the gift table] "Presents? Guys, you shouldn't have gone to all this trouble!" Jude: "Oh man, we're fried now, dude." ''[Wyatt walks towards the present table. Jen runs up and plants herself in front of him.]'' Jen: "Wyatt! Overall, you've had a good time, right? So maybe we should head out." Wyatt: "But you got all these amazing gifts! They're almost too nice to open!" Nikki: "You're right! Better to savor them now and then open them next week." Wyatt: "No way, I can't wait that long." Jen: "Sure you can!" Nikki: "Look, Jonesy, Wyatt found the presents!" Jonesy: "Great, but, you don't want to open them now! So uncool." Caitlin: [dragging Jill with her] "Hey, look who I found! It's Jill! Don't you want to talk to Jill instead of opening that silly present?" Wyatt: "C'mon, guys, just one." [The gang cross their fingers as Wyatt unwraps the box, hoping that whatever's inside will work as a present.] Wyatt: "Uh..." [Wyatt has pulled out a skimpy pink-and-purple negligeé.] Wyatt: "Thanks?" Caitlin: [after a moment] "Happy birthday!" Jen: [catching on] "Yay!" Jonesy: "Happy B-day!" Nikki: "Happy happy!" Jill: "Am I missing something?" Wyatt: "I was just wondering the same thing." Jen, Jonesy, Jude, and Nikki: "Uh..." Caitlin: [thinking fast] "Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake!" Jen, Jonesy, Jude, Nikki, and Caitlin: "Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake!" Crowd: [taking up the chant] "Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake!" Wyatt: "Cool. Bring it on." Crowd: "Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake! Cake!" ''[The cake is carted out. The gang gasp. On top sits a statuette of a bride and groom.]'' Jonesy: "NNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!" [Jonesy runs forward and dives, headfirst, into the cake, knocking it over and splattering it on everyone.] Jude: [licking some off his finger] "Mmm. That's good icing." Jonesy: [to the girl in the blue sweater, chuckling nervously] "Napkin?" [A microphone is turned on.] Blonde Greeter God: [into the mike] "A-heh-heh-hem. Okay. It's time for the guest of honor to come up here and say a few words!" Crowd: "Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech!" Wyatt: [heading for the stage] "Guess I'd better say something." Crowd: "Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech!" Jonesy: "Wait!" [He slips on the spilled cake.] "Whoa!" [Jonesy slips and slides into his friends, knocking them all over.] Nikki: "Aah! Oh no. He's not going to–" [Wyatt taps the microphone.] Jen: "He is going to. I can't watch." [Wyatt clears his throat and begins to speak.] Wyatt: "Thanks everybody! This party was awesome. I've always hated birthdays, but after tonight, I think I actually like them again! You guys are all so great!" Guy in Audience: "Dude! Who are you?" Bride: [behind Wyatt, crying] "What are you doing? This is my bridal shower!" Wyatt: [confused] "Guys?" [The gang chuckle and grin nervously.] Jonesy: "Run!" [The five follow his instructions and take off out of there, leaving Wyatt to face an angry crowd.]

''[Wyatt is sitting at the table by the Big Squeeze. Jude, Caitlin, Nikki, and Jen approach him.]'' Jen: "Wyatt–" Wyatt: "I don't want to hear it." Nikki: "Okay, we messed up royally. But we had good intentions." Wyatt: "See? This is why I hate birthdays." Caitlin: "We just wanted to give you a nice one for a change." Wyatt: [angry] "So you hijacked a bridal shower, choked down all their food, and risked getting caught all in some deluded effort to give me a happy birthday?!?" [realizing] "Hey. That's pretty cool." Jude: "You can have your hat back if you still want it." Wyatt: [taking it back] "You know, as ridiculous as this gift is, I think I'll keep it. Maybe I was being too hard on my parents." Jude: "If you ever need anyone to look after it, you just let me know." Wyatt: "Thanks. You guys may not believe this, but, this is one of the best birthday parties I've ever had." Nikki: [hugging him] "Wyatt, that's–really sad." Jonesy: [whispering to Jen] "Psst! All clear?" Jen: "It's cool. Wyatt forgives us!" Jonesy: "Nice! Because I have a little surprise for everyone." [Jonesy has brought the smashed cake.] "It's a little squashed, but uh, mmm! It's tasty!" Jude: "Sweet." Wyatt: "Cool."

''[Jude is playing Simu-Mall in Grind Me. The rest of the gang walks in.]'' Wyatt: "Jude man, we need to talk." Jude: "Check it out! Simu-Wyatt just released his first video, bro!" Caitlin: "Jude, this is an intervention." Jude: "An inter-what-tion?" Jen: "You need to stop playing. It's for your own good." Jude: "Hey, I can quit at any time, dude! And I will!" [turning back to the game] "As soon as simu-Jude becomes king." Nikki: "Yeah, uh, we're gonna have to confiscate the game now. Guys?" [Wyatt, Caitlin, and Jen try to pull Jude's laptop away.] Jude: "No wait! Dudes! Stop! Wait!" [The four start wrestling on the ground.] "My baby! Dude!" Jonesy: "So, will you go out with me or not?" Nikki: "What do you think?" Jonesy: "Seriously? I think you're chicken." Nikki: [realizing] "You know what? I am chicken. That's it! I'm scared of screwing this up." Jonesy: "Screwing what up? We haven't done anything yet." Nikki: "No. This." [She gestures to the four friends, who are happy even while fighting.] "The six of us. I don't want to mess this up, you know?" Jonesy: "Yeah. I guess I get it. But it still sucks, right?" Nikki: "Mmm...maybe a little." [She elbows him.] Jonesy: "Ow!" Nikki: "I got you." ''[Jonesy starts wrestling with Nikki. Soon, all six friends are on the floor, laughing and playfully fighting.]''
