A young girl with a blocky hairstyle—Angie—sits at a table in a school cafeteria. Several classmates pass by, and each one stops to say hi to her.

Classmate #1 Hi Angie!
Angie Hi!
Classmate #2 Hiiii Angie!
Angie Hi...

Clarissa comes over to sit with Angie. She slams her head on the table.

Clarissa I'm so tired...

In the background, a student at a nearby table takes their food and walks away from them both.

Angie What's the matter this time?
Clarissa She wants us to do another rehearsal today...
Angie We did one yesterday! She really can't be pleased, huh?
Clarissa (quietly) Aaaaaaaah...

Seeing that Clarissa is still sad, Angie ponders for a moment.

Angie You know what? After our rehearsal, we can go to the lake—you know, the one we played in when we were kids.
Clarissa I'm pretty sure that lake is a bog by now. And you know what she's like: if she learns about our plan, we'll get busted...
Angie Don't worry about it..! Operation Childhood Lake will get done today, and I assure you it will be awesome. The main thing is: we need to buy ourselves enough time for the whole mission...

Angie pretends to play piano on the cafeteria table. Clarissa puts her head on the table

Clarissa (giggling) Maybe you're right. I really need a break from this whole music thing.

Someone clears their throat. Clarissa turns to see a girl with black hair, brown eyes and purple glasses—Annabelle—who is coming to sit at their table. The girl looks calm but powerful.

Clarissa looks a bit concerned

Annabelle What are you talking about?

Angie looks at Clarissa with a smile, while Clarissa gestures "cut it off" to Angie.

Angie Just a little escape plan.

Clarissa puts her head on the table again.

Annabelle Escape the school?

Angie looks up and realizes she is talking to the head of the student council. Clarissa rolls her eyes at Angie with a "told you" expression.

Angie (bit panicked) An-na-belle Levesque...
Nonononono, what're you talking about? We would never break the school rules.
Annabelle Oh, girls, you don't need to worry so much. We aren't in the principal's office. Though if we were... (she giggles) I might not have such a laid-back attitude.
Angie Oookay...

Angie starts to eat without looking at Annabelle.

In the background, two boys start a food fight. Annabelle gets up from her seat and heads over to the boys.

Annabelle What exactly do you think you're doing?

Clarissa continues to eat while Angie breathes a sigh of relief.

The bell rings and the girls head back to class.

YOU! I thought I would not at least see you there...

Head to rehearsal.
