The Award(Transcript)

Today is the awards ceremony and the choir and theatre kids are looking forward to it.

Jenny: Guys, guess what, today is the awards ceremony and the awards will go to the best clubs in the school. This happens every month starting from March each year.

Reece: But the mean girls got the awards every month because of their academic performances.

George: Reece, why would they do that?

Reece: You know how the awards go right?

Zoe: How?

Reece: Each club must do good in their academic performances, the theatre club does theatrical performances every season, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Fall, the choir club, that's us does performances any day of the month or season, the orchestra club performs every ceremony and theatrical performances while the mean girls group or the dance club, does performances every single day. But nobody approves of their performances. Why were they given the awards?

Aiden: I have no idea.

Zoe: Maybe Victoria hacked the computer making her group the first place while the other groups are losers. No offense guys. Maybe we should go to the library and check our scores.

Emily: Let's go.

They went to the library computer as Zoe looked for the scores this month. It is shown that Annika's group has 100 academic points while the choir, theatre and orchestra super group has 98 academic points.

Zoe: Look, Annika has 2 more than us, we need to make 3 more performances throughout Georgetown.

Aiden: What will happen if you get the awards.

Reece: We will perform in every city in the UK and Ireland, that means cities in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. This happened last year when my choir gets to tour all around the British Isles.

George: So where will we be going this year?

Zoe: Plymouth, Newport, Swindon, Nottingham, Birmingham, Liverpool, Sheffield, Newcastle upon Tyne, Carlisle, Hull, Harrogate, Manchester, Leicester, Norwich, Cambridge, London, Belfast, Brighton and Bournemouth in England, Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh in Scotland, Dublin in Ireland and Cardiff and Llanfair.... crap, I can't pronounce that Welsh village.

Reece: What's that? Llanfair... I can't pronounce it either.

Harvey: I'll try.

Everyone tried to pronounce it until Blake managed to pronounce it.

Blake: Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch, there ya go.

Jenny: Impressive Blake.

Danna: Yeah, I didn't know you could pronounce that whopping name.

Blake: Thanks.

Reece: So, we need to perform during assemblies. We have one today during the lunch break and the awards ceremony will be this afternoon so let's perform right in front of everyone. Also we will perform during the awards ceremony.

Jenny: Let's go.

During the lunch break, the theatre and choir kids are preparing to perform in front of everyone while they were eating. They ate earlier so that's good.

Jenny: Attention everyone, today we will be performing for you before you see us in the awards ceremony.

Reece: Are you ready?

Audience: Yeah!

Annika: Boo!

Zoe: What is going on?

Hazel: Not until we get hands on the awards first.

George: No, we will get hands of it together. We're a super group of choir, theatre and orchestra kids.

Everyone: Yeah!

Samuel: We're not just orchestra kids, we're band kids too.

Everyone: Yeah!

Blake: Let's perform guys.

Reece: 1 2 3 4.

Song: Let Me Down Slow by New Hope Club

George: #Heaven knows we're out of luck #Been on the point of giving up #If all is fair in war and love #Then why do we fight? #If something ain't right#

Blake: #‘Cause we don't really talk about life no more #I'm just here my own tryna laugh it off #When the night comes crawling I'm holding on #For something to change, tension to break #It's about time#

Reece: #What are you hiding? #'Cause I got the right to know #There's something different in the way you look #What are you fighting? #If you're gonna let me go #It's gonna hurt so choose your words #Baby, let me down slow#

All: #Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh#

Reece: #Baby, let me down slow#

All: #Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh#

Reece: #Baby, let me down slow

All: #Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh#

Reece: #Baby, let me down#

All: #Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh#

Zoe: #Who was misguided? Who's to blame? #The first to have the final say? #If love is just a wicked game #Then why do we play? #Then why do we play? Yeah#

Troy: #And it hurts seeing you tryna put me off #Tryna make me be the one to break it off #When the night comes crawling, I'm holding on #For something to change, tension to break #It's about time#

Brad: #What are you hiding? #'Cause I got the right to know #There's something different in the way you look #What are you fighting? #If you're gonna let me go #It's gonna hurt so choose your words #Baby, let me down slow#

All: #Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh#

Brad: #Baby, let me down slow#

Brad: #Baby, let me down#

All: #Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh#

Harvey: #Baby, let me down slow#

Aiden: #Let me down, let me down, let me down slow#

Everyone but the mean girls gave a round of applause.

Reece: Thank you!

After the performance, Ms. Jackson went up to the super group.

Ms. Jackson: You guys have been doing great back there, maybe you lot deserve the award.

Reece: Can we perform too?

Ms. Jackson: Yes.

Everyone: Yay!

Annika: This is not fair! I deserve the award, not these hobos, plus I deserve to go on tour for the first time in Llanfair... whatever that is.

Blake: Or should I say, Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch, thank you very much.

Victoria: He can pronounce it?

Ms. Jackson: Whatever, guys, please prepare for the event this afternoon. And don't forget the costumes.

Reece: Crap.

Zoe: Don't worry, I'm also a tailor, I can also make clothes.

George: And I can help her, okay?

Zoe: Okay.

Blake: Okay.

George and Zoe: Blake!

Jenny: Guys, let's check on how many academic points we got.

Everyone looked at Jenny's phone and saw the points. Annika got more than them even though they were given 3 by Ms. Jackson.

Kandace: This isn't fair, why would Annika do this?

Luke: Maybe someone hacked into the system.

Reece: C'mon, we'll do what it takes to beat Annika's group once and for all.

So for the entire afternoon before the awards ceremony, every performed every song and play. It was tiring work but it will work out.

Jenny: So I need this performance to be perfect so that it could beat Annika.

Reece: And action! Soloists up front.

Harvey, Blake, Troy, Brad, George, Zoe and Aiden: Yes Reece?

Reece: Make sure you guys do your parts, even while you dance.

Harvey, Blake, Troy, Brad, George, Zoe and Aiden: Yes choir director!

Reece: Alright, now go!

They started performing their number for the awards show while both Jenny and Reece were watching their academic scores.

Jenny: Looks like we're doing better than Annika's group.

Reece: Yeah.

Blake: How did we do?

Reece: You did well, good job, everyone, quick break.

Everyone went on a quick break after some intense dance moves for the awards ceremony.

George: That was tiring.

Zoe: I know.

Reece: Guys, you're doing great, we will practice more in 10 minutes.

Harvey: Right.

Aiden: Well done guys.

George: Thanks.

Aiden: You're not mad at me, are you? You know, because Zoe cheated on you before and-

George: It's fine Aiden, it's just that I haven't been on a relationship before. I always get a glance on her since primary school when she saw me hurt in the playground. I didn't get a chance to tell her how I feel until recently.

Zoe: George, didn't you forget that you confessed to me before you moved to secondary school? Like when you were in Year 6 and I was in Year 5?

George: That bit was awkward, but I tried to confess again recently but you cut me off.

Zoe: Yeah, because I felt the same way.

Aiden: I'm starting to ship you 2 right, now. You seem to make a perfect couple.

10 minutes later, it is time to practice again.

Reece: Guys, practice time.

George: It's time guys.

They started practicing for the awards and then scene cuts to the theatre and choir kids watching it in Blake's tablet.

Blake: That will do.

Reece: Yeah.

Zoe: It's ceremony time, let's go.

Jenny: What about the costumes.

Zoe: I got them well done, they are just denim jackets because we need to make things quicker. Remember, they are all of both genders because we don't want sexual discrimination here.

Jenny: They look wonderful.

Reece: I agree.

Danna: Let's go guys.

They went backstage while Ms. Jackson is delivering a speech about the awards.

Ms. Jackson: Ladies and gentlemen, students and teachers, welcome to this month's best club awards. On, March, May, July and September every year, we give awards to the best clubs in this school. Along with it, we give them a free tour all around the UK and Ireland. This year's destinations are Plymouth, Newport, Swindon, Nottingham, Birmingham, Liverpool, Sheffield, Newcastle upon Tyne, Carlisle, Hull, Harrogate, Manchester, Leicester, Norwich, Cambridge, London, Belfast, Brighton and Bournemouth in England, Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh in Scotland, Dublin in Ireland and Cardiff and for the first time in the school's history, Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch.

While Ms. Jackson was doing her speech, the theatre and choir kids started whispering backstage. Everyone has microphone headsets on but they are off for a while until their performance.

Reece: Guys, Ms. Jackson can pronounce...

Blake: Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch?

Reece: Exactly, she is so good.

Meanwhile, Ms. Jackson is about to finish her speech.

Ms. Jackson: Alright everyone, before we start this awards ceremony, we will be given a performance by New Hope Choir along with their great friends, the Theatre Troupe and the Orchestra. So please welcome, New Hope Choir and the Theatre Troupe, give a round of applause!

Then they started performing.

Song: Heart Attack by Demi Lovato

Reece: #Puttin' my defenses up #'Cause I don't wanna fall in love #If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack#

Zoe: #Never put my love out on the line #Never said "yes" to the right guy #Never had trouble getting what I want #But when it comes to you, I'm never good enough#

George: #When I don't care, I can play 'em like a Ken doll #Won’t wash my hair #Then make 'em bounce like a basketball#

Brad: #But you make me wanna act like a girl #Paint my nails and wear high heels #Yes, you, make me so nervous that I just can't hold your hand#

All: #You make me glow #But I cover up, won’t let it show #So I'm putting my defenses up #'Cause I don't wanna fall in love #If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack #I think I'd have a heart attack #I think I'd have a heart attack#

Troy: #Never break a sweat for the other guys #When you come around, I get paralyzed #And every time I try to be myself #It comes out wrong like a cry for help#

Blake: #Blake: #It’s just not fair #Pain’s more trouble than love is worth #I gasp for air #It feels so good, but you know it hurts#

Aiden: #But you make me wanna act like a girl #Paint my nails and wear perfume for you #Make me so nervous that I just can't hold your hand#

All: #You make me glow #But I cover up, won't let it show #So I'm putting my defenses up #'Cause I don't wanna fall in love #If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack #I think I'd have a heart attack #I think I'd have a heart attack#

Harvey: #The feelings are lost in my lungs #They're burning, I'd rather be numb #And there's no one else to blame #So scared, I'll take off in a run #I'm flying too close to the sun and I'll burst into flames#

All: #You make me glow #But I cover up, won’t let it show #So I'm putting my defenses up #'Cause I don't wanna fall in love #If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack #I think I'd have a heart attack #I think I'd have a heart attack #Oh, I think I'd have a heart attack #I think I'd have a heart attack#

Everyone: Thank you!

Ms. Jackson: That's it for the performance, now this May's winners are, the New Hope Choir, Theatre Troupe and the Orchestra. Unlike the previous times when the mean girls were the winners.

Ms. Jackson gave the microphone to Reece as he delivers a speech.

Reece: Thank you very much, we would appreciate this award for our hard work. Getting an award is not just getting trophies to be a showoff or anything, it is for your hard work and how much effort you put in it.

Ms. Jackson: Thank you!

After the awards, the choir and theatre kids met up.

Reece: We did it guys.

Jenny: Yeah.

Annika: You guys sure win, but I will win next time.

Blake: Don't mind her.

George: Yeah, she is such a hobo.

Everyone: (laughs)
