A New Liar Is Introduced (Transcript)

It has been a month since Kayla was expelled and she is now in New Zealand. Josh, Zoe and Hayden managed to get closer alongside Kandace and Sofia as they start a new school year together.

Zoe: Hi guys.

Hayden: Hey.

Josh: G'day.

Kandace: Hi.

Sofia: Hi.

Zoe: So, how's it going?

Kandace: Pretty normal.

Sofia: Yeah, ever since Kayla got expelled everything has changed but the programming club hasn't been the same. We've lost so many members so we decided to join the the theatre club. We're hoping that you could join too.

Zoe: That would be great. Josh, what do you say?

Josh: Good idea.

Denis: If my cousins are okay with it then yes.

Sofia: Good, I'll show you the theatre.

The kids kept their things in their locker and walked towards the theatre. They are greeted by a lot of students who are part of the club.

Liam: Hi, I'm Liam and I'm the main director of the club.

Sofia: Hi, these 3 signed up for this club.

Liam: Hey, I recognised you.

Josh: Liam?

Liam: Exactly, and that's your sister, right.

Josh: Adoptive sister, actually.

Zoe: Oi! Family means love not blood.

Josh: I get that.

Liam: Oh, and I'm looking for a female lead for my next musical play so I need someone from possibly in Year 10 to do it.

Kandace: I'm in Year 10 but I'm not good enough.

Sofia: I'm too young for this role, I'm in Year 8.

Hayden: I'm a guy and I'm in Year 11.

Josh: I think my sister would do.

Zoe: Josh!

Liam: Having a bit of stage fright, I suppose?

Josh: she doesn't have stage fright, she won a talent show in Year 4.

Zoe: Why would you select me?

Josh: You're actually more confident than me.

Liam: Also, our lead female role is mezzo-soprano so Zoe would be fit for it.

Zoe: Okay, I'm in.

Liam: Good, the stage is this way.

Liam led Zoe to the stage while the other kids sat down and watch Zoe's audition.

Liam: Alright, introduce yourself.

Zoe: Hi, I'm Zoe, I'm 15 and I'm in Year 10. I'll be playing the lead female role in Liam's musical play.

Liam: Wow, you're a natural.

Zoe: Thank you.

Liam: Now sing a song.

Song: Never Enough from The Greatest Showman

Zoe: #I'm trying to hold my breath #Let it stay this way #Can't let this moment end #You set off a dream in me #Gettin' louder now #Can you hear it echoing? #Take my hand #Will you share this with me? #'Cause darling, without you #All the shine of a thousand spotlights #All the stars we steal from the night sky #Will never be enough, never be enough #Towers of gold are still too little #These hands could hold the world but it'll #Never be enough, never be enough #For me, never, never Never, never #Never, for me, for me #Never enough, never enough, never enough #For me, for me, for me #All the shine of a thousand spotlights #All the stars we steal from the night sky #Will never be enough, never be enough #Towers of gold are still too little #These hands could hold the world but it'll #Never be enough, never be enough #For me, never, never #Never, never #Never, for me, for me #Never enough, never, never #Never enough, never, never #Never enough #For me, for me, for me #For me#

Liam: That's some wicked vocals.

Zoe: Thanks.

Liam: Good, you're in for the female lead. Now I need a male lead.

Zoe: How many male leads do you need?

Liam: I need 2.

Zoe: Can my brother and my cousin join?

Liam: If they want to.

Zoe: Great.

Zoe ran from the stage to the seats where her friends are.

Kandace: You did it.

Sofia: You got the role.

Zoe: About that, I was wondering if Josh and Hayden would be the male leads.

Josh: Really?

Liam: Yes and I'm offering you guys to co-star along with your sister.

Hayden: She and Josh are my cousins.

Liam: Oh, okay.

Zoe: Let's head to lunch.

Josh, Hayden, Zoe, Kandace and Sofia went to the cafeteria for lunch. They felt weird since they don't have to discuss stuff about Kayla.

Kandace: Guys, is it me or it feels weird when we don't talk about Kayla.

Zoe: It is.

Josh: But I'm glad that Queenslander is spending her cold days in New Zealand rather than her hot days in her native country.

Hayden: I agree.

That's when a 14-year-old girl named Mariela sat on the table.

Kandace: Who's that?

Zoe: My old friend, Mariela, I had beef with her last year. I've fallen out with her since. Mariela, what's up?

Mariela: Do you know the girl over there?

Sofia: What's her name?

Mariela: That's Edith, she pretended to be my best friend but she ghosted me. She lied about everything.

Josh: She's probably ugly like Kayla.

Zoe: Josh!

Mariela: Wait, you guys are experienced with liars, right?

Hayden: Yeah.

Kandace: You're right.

Mariela: Can you guys please do me a favour?

Zoe: Sure.

Mariela: Expose her like what you did to Kayla.

Josh: Okay.

Mariela: Thank you.

Mariela left the table as the other kids continued eating. Later, they decided to gang out in the rock garden before going to the theatre.

Sofia: So, we have to expose this girl, right?

Zoe: Yup.

Josh: But the only lie she's done is claiming that Mariela is her friend.

Zoe: Not just Mariela but also Linda, Shannon, Katelyn and Lexi.

Kandace: Also, is there any girl here named Edith?

Zoe: I dunno any so-called Ediths here.

Hayden: I think we should ask Mr. Hawkins.

Sofia: Nice try, but he's on holiday.

Josh: Really? Where?

Kandace: Hawaii.

Zoe: Why Hawaii?

Kandace: Probably having a date with someone.

Josh: Just stick to exposing Edith instead of trying to find her history or something.

Zoe: Josh is right, let's stick to the plan.

Everyone: Yeah.
