Introducing Edith (Transcript)

In the theatre, Josh, Kandace, Sofia, Zoe and Hayden were looking through the enrollment history of Edith to know who is she. Zoe got Isabelle to help her and her friends find if there is any girl named Edith.

Isabelle: Well, it seems like there is no girl here named Edith.

Sofia: Wait, there isn't?

Josh: Then why did Mariela say that Edith was lying to her?

Kandace: She's probably Kayla under the identity of Edith.

Everyone: What?!

Liam: Josh, it's time for your audition. Hayden, you come after.

Josh: Oh, right. Guys, once I'm done with my audition, tell me what information you've got.

Hayden: Also, I'll be coming after you.

Josh went on stage to audition for the male lead.

Liam: Alright, introduce yourself.

Josh: Hi, I'm Josh, I'm 16 and I'm in Year 10. I'll be playing the lead female role in Liam's musical play.

Liam: Now, try to sing.

Josh: Oh, but I need my sister to do it. I have a little stage fright.

Zoe: I got it.

Liam: Erm... what are you guys going to do.

Zoe: You'll see.

Zoe and Josh got ready and positioned themselves because Zoe will help him with his audition. Once they are ready, music is played and Zoe came into the spotlight first. That's the choreography they've prepared before the audition.

Song: I'm Here from Matilda the Musical

Zoe: At Night, the Escapologist's daughter cried herself to sleep, alone in her room. The Escapologist knew nothing of the Aunt's wickedness and his daughter never said a word, as she didn't want to add to her father's pain. This only encouraged the woman to greater cruelties, until one day, she exploded! You are a useless, filthy, nasty little creep! And she beat her, and threw her into a dank, dark, dusty cellar, locked the door and went out. But that day, the Escapologist happened to come home early, and when he heard the sound of his daughter's tears, he smashed the door open!

Josh: #Don't cry, I am here little girl #Please don't cry, dry your eyes #Wipe away your tears, little girl #Forgive me, I didn't mean to desert you #Don't cry little girl #Nothing can hurt you, you've nothing to fear... #I'm here...#

Zoe and Josh: Have I been so wrapped up in my grief for my wife that I have forgotten the one thing that mattered to us most. I love you so much my daughter. I shall spent the rest of my life making it up to you. We shall be together, forever...

Zoe: #Don't cry, daddy #I'm alright, daddy #Please don't cry, here #Let me wipe away your tears #Daddy, forgive me #I didn't want to upset you #Please, daddy, don't cry #I'll be alright #With you by my side #I have nothing to fear #You're here... #Don't cry daddy #I'm alright daddy #Please don't cry, here #Let me wipe away your tears #Daddy, forgive me #I didn't want to upset you #Please, Daddy, don't cry #I'll be alright with you by my side #I have nothing to fear #You're here#

Josh: #Don't cry. #Please don't cry, I am here little girl #Please don't cry #Dry your eyes #Little girl... #Forgive me #I didn't mean to desert you #Don't cry, little girl #Nothing can hurt you #You have nothing to fear #I'm here#

Zoe: But when the little girl fell asleep, the Escapologist's thoughts turned to the Acrobat's sister and an almighty rage grew in his great heart

Zoe and Josh: This demon! This villain! This monster! She has sullied the memory of my wife! She has betrayed the trust of her own sister! She has shown cruelty to the most precious reality of my marriage! Bullying children is a game, is it? Then let us see what this creature thinks she can do when the wrath of a grown man stands before her!

Zoe: But that was the last the little girl ever saw of her Father because he never came home, ever again

Josh: Thank you!

Josh and Zoe went back to their circle friends.

Sofia: Well done back there, you 2.

Zoe: Thanks.

Kandace: Also, Isabelle helped me look through Edith's enrollment history even further. There is no such girl named Edith in Year 8. Also, Isabelle has been scanning all of the text messages Mariela received from Edith. Turns out, those are actually from Kayla.

Josh: Really?

Zoe: So all this time, Kayla has been sending these to Mariela?

Kandace: Unfortunately, yes.

Liam: Hayden, it's time for your audition.

Hayden: Can I do it tomorrow?

Liam: It's fine, you can do it any time.

Hayden: Thank you.

Sofia: Wow, Kayla is good at impersonating people.

Josh: Like her mum, 'Summer' and 'Olivia.'

Zoe: These aren't clever.

Kandace: But why would she lie? Who motivated her to lie?

Hayden: I dunno.

Zoe: Maybe the fact that her mum is now in Hong Kong and her parents divorced?

Josh: Hong Kong? First Japan and then Vietnam and now Hong Kong?

Zoe: Yeah, Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee.

Hayden: Why would Kayla lie to us like that?

Zoe: No, her mum really is overseas as of now. She didn't lie about that. She lied about her death, pregnancy, overdose, self-harm, anxiety and stomach pains.

Sofia: Yeah, she'd always complain in my DMs that her stomach has been aching.

Kandace: That's really weird cuz nobody complains about stomach problems in their DMs.

Josh: Even I won't complain about my appendix when I was 6.

Hayden slightly opened Josh's shirt to show his surgical scar but Zoe stopped him.

Zoe: Hayden!

Hayden: What? I'm just showing everyone his surgical scar.

Kandace: Are you kidding me? I don't want to know.

Sofia: Also I'm a bit squeamish.

Josh: I really don't want people to see my scar.

Hayden: Sorry about that.

Josh: It's fine.

The bell started ringing and it's time for lunch. The kids went to their usual table but this time, Mariela sat with them.

Mariela: So, how'd it go?

Zoe: We discovered that Edith is actually Kayla.

Mariela: Kayla? The girl that has been exposed and expelled?

Josh: Yeah, kind of like that.

Mariela: Wow, all this time the girl who pretended to be my friend was Kayla. I'm going to be sick.

Sofia: You know Lexi even befriended her.

Mariela: That's terrible, I should be careful with who I'm befriending. I felt stupid.

Zoe: Hey, when I befriended Kayla I also felt that way.

Josh: And me.

Kandace: All of us in particular. Also, Josh and Zoe suffer from depression and anxiety and their mental health deteriorated for a while when they have to deal with Kayla.

Zoe: And this happened.

Zoe used her powers to lift up Kandace, Sofia and her plate. Josh did the same thing but with Hayden and his plate.

Mariela: Woah, how can you do that?

Josh: Our brain cells come together when we have strong emotions and boom we have telekinesis.

Mariela: Cool.

Kandace: Mariela, where are you from? You don't sound Australian.

Mariela: You too. I'll answer your question, I'm from the US. I hate it there.

Sofia: Why?

Mariela: Because everyone is toxic and nobody gets along well. So I signed up as an exchange student to Australia.

Josh: Oh.

Zoe: You have to be careful, you know what happened to Lexi last term?

Mariela: Yeah, I know.

Kandace: Lexi has been manipulated by Kayla.

Mariela: I know, Kandace.

Zoe: Okay. Let's make sure that Kayla doesn't go far with her lies.

After lunch, the kids went back to the theatre. They were surprised that Mariela is part of that club.

Zoe: Mariela, what are you doing here?

Mariela: I'm one of the theatre kids.

Josh: Really? Cool.

Mariela: So, did you audition?

Zoe: Josh and I already did.

Mariela: Josh, what you did with your sister was so amazing.

Josh: Thanks.

Kandace: Spending time here actually helps us get motivated with other people and help us do more research on Kayla.

Mariela: That clown.

Josh: That's what I called her.

Mariela: That comedian, bette?

Zoe: Yeah, better.

Hayden: Let's just make sure Kayla doesn't complain about her stomach problems again.

Mariela: Wait, she does?

Josh: Kind of unusual of her, that's why she lies.

Zoe: I agree with Josh.

Mariela: Wow, this isn't normal lying you know.

Kandace: Yeah.

Zoe: She probably has split personality disorder.

Josh: Or a pathological liar I guess.

Mariela: I dunno what she's up to but she really needs to be stopped.

Everyone: Yeah.
