My Better Half(Transcript)

The main 6 were playing in the backyard when something went wrong. Everything is in halves.

George: Guys, what is going on?

Zoe: Looks like someone has been putting everything in halves. Looks like it isn't everything.

Blake: Like the trees right there.

Zoe: But the benches, cars, some houses and the swings are in halves. Let's take a picture of these and tell the choir what's happening.

Zoe took the pictures and Reece, Blake, Troy, Brad, George and Zoe went to the choir room.

Connor: So what is going on?

Zoe: Everything is in halves, except the trees.

That's when Jenny, Kandace, Yuto, Aidan and Raphael, who looks like a tattletale rushed into the choir room.

Jenny: Guys, Raphael has turned into a tattletale.

Luke: What? How?

Kandace: Also everything is in halves, we dunno what's going on.

Zoe: Look, can you explain these pictures and could this apply to why Raphael became a tattletale?

Jenny: Maybe.

Reece: How old is he?

Raphael: 14.

Zoe: Raphael is 14 and half of 14 is 7. Which means that...

Just with a blink of an eye, George became a 7-year-old.

George: (screams)

Zoe: George became 7-years-old?

Troy: Oh no, I am not turning into a tattletale.

Brad: You won't, Troy, 15 is an odd number. Odd numbers cannot be divided by 2. However, 14 is an even number so it can be divisible by 2. And because George and Raphael are 14, they turn into 7-year-olds.

Raphael: Change us back!

Zoe: We'll try, but we have to go to our thinking space. Too the library, we need to go to our thinking space.

The choir kids and some of the theatre kids went to the library to their thinking space. Zoe got her kindle and analyze the photos and George and Raphael's ages.

Zoe: Okay, if we look at the photos, they look like halves. But if you look closely, they are all symmetrical.

Blake: That's why they are in halves.

Zoe: If we use a mirror and they are the same image, they actually are symmetrical. However, if you look at George and Raphael's ages, they are both even numbers. 14. The digits, 1 and 4 aren't symmetrical but 14 is an even number. It is divisible by 2.

Raphael: So that's why we're 7, 14 divided by 2 is 7.

George: Then how come you guys didn't turn into tattletales?

Zoe: If you divide Kandace, Yuto, Aidan and I's ages, 13 to 2, you can't divide it because 13 is an odd number. If you divide Brad, Troy and Connor's ages, 15 to 2, you can't divide it either because 15 is also an odd number.

Jenny: What about 17?

Zoe: You can't divide it to 2, it is also an odd number.

George: So it is just us.

Raphael: Yeah.

Zoe: We need to find out who has been doing this. I really hope it wasn't Annika, or it is always her and her gadget-obsessed friend Victoria. Let's go up to her.

After heading to the library, they went to the hallways to find Annika and her gang.

Song: Somebody That I Used To Know by Gotye and Kimbra

Troy: #Now and then I think of when we were together #Like when you said you felt so happy you could die #Told myself that you were right for me #But felt so lonely in your company #But that was love and it's an ache I still remember#

George: #You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness #Like resignation to the end, always the end #So, when we found that we could not make sense #Well, you said that we would still be friends #But I'll admit that I was glad it was over#

Reece: #But you didn't have to cut me off #Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing #And I don't even need your love #But you treat me like a stranger and I feel so rough #No, you didn't have to stoop so low #Have your friends collect your records and then change your number #I guess that I don't need that though #Now you're just somebody that I used to know #Now you're just somebody that I used to know #Now you're just somebody that I used to know#

Zoe: #Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over #But had me believing it was always something that I'd done #But I don't wanna live that way #Reading into every word you say #You said that you could let it go #And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know#

Brad: #But you didn't have to cut me off #Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing #And I don't even need your love #But you treat me like a stranger and I feel so rough #No, you didn't have to stoop so low #Have your friends collect your records and then change your number #I guess that I don't need that though #Now you're just somebody that I used to know#

Raphael: #Somebody #I used to know #Somebody #I used to know#

Kandace: #Now you're just somebody that I used to know#

Raphael: #Somebody #I used to know #Somebody #I used to know#

Kandace: #Now you're just somebody that I used to know#

Jenny: #I used to know #That I used to know #I used to know #Somebody#

James: Where do Annika and her gang usually hang out?

Blake: The Year 11B classroom, they would usually vape there and it sucks.

Tristan: Crap, I study in 11B, no wonder why it smells like someone vapes in there.

Zoe: Also because George's cystic fibrosis is worse than Brad's, he coughs a lot whenever he smells it.

George: Don't say that!

Zoe: And now that he is 7, this will get even worse. Let's get in.

They went into the Year 11B classroom and the mean girls were still vaping.

Reece: Oi! Stop right there!

Emma: Oh look, it is the theatre and choir kids.

Geri: What do you want from us now?

George: You turned Raphael and I into 7-year-olds.

Annika: Yeah, so?

Blake: So? You turned every symmetrical object into halves. Now no one can play.

Yuka: So that no one can also have fun, also it's fun seeing George and Raphael as tattletales.

Raphael: I don't want to be a tattletale anymore, turn me back. 7 times 2 is 14 and George and I are 14, not 7.

Victoria: Not until you naughty tattletales sing for me. I know you are good singers because George is a choir kid while Raphael is a theatre kid.

Annika: Just sing, even if I don't want to hear your voices.

Song: Closer by The Chainsmokers and Halsey

George: #Hey, I was doing just fine before I met you #I drink too much #And that's an issue, but I'm okay #Hey, you tell your friends #It was nice to meet them #But I hope I never see them again #I know it breaks your heart #Moved to the city in a broke-down car #And four years, no calls #Now you're lookin' pretty in a hotel bar #And I-I-I can't stop #No, I-I-I can't stop #So, baby, pull me closer #In the backseat of your Rover #That I know you can't afford #Bite that tattoo on your shoulder #Pull the sheets right off the corner #Of the mattress that you stole #From your roommate back in Boulder #We ain't ever getting older #We ain't ever getting older #We ain't ever getting older#

Raphael: #You look as good as the day I met you #I forget just why I left you, I was insane #Stay and play that blink-182 song #That we beat to death in Tucson, okay #I know it breaks your heart #Moved to the city in a broke-down car #And four years, no call #Now I'm lookin' pretty in a hotel bar #And I-I-I can't stop #No, I-I-I can't stop#

Both: #So, baby, pull me closer #In the backseat of your Rover #That I know you can't afford #Bite that tattoo on your shoulder #Pull the sheets right off the corner #Of the mattress that you stole #From your roommate back in Boulder #We ain't ever getting older #We ain't ever getting older #We ain't ever getting older#

George: #So, baby, pull me closer #In the backseat of your Rover #That I know you can't afford #Bite that tattoo on your shoulder #Pull the sheets right off the corner #Of the mattress that you stole #From your roommate back in Boulder #We ain't ever getting older #We ain't ever getting older#

Raphael: #No, we ain't ever getting older#

George: #We ain't ever getting older#

Raphael: #No, we ain't ever getting older#

George: #We ain't ever getting older#

Raphael: #We ain't ever getting older#

George: #We ain't ever getting older#

Raphael: #No, we ain't ever getting older #We ain't ever getting older #No, we ain't ever getting older#

Annika: Okay, you want to be teenagers again? Victoria!

Victoria: I got it.

Reece: Also, turn everything into a whole again.

Victoria: Fine.

Victoria turned George and Raphael into 14-year-olds again and then everything into a whole. Everyone is happy but the mean girls arent.

Annika: Now get lost, I don't want to see any of your faces.

Brad: Okay, let's go.

The choir and theatre kids went out of the 11B classroom and then into the hallways.

George: I'm glad I am 14 again

Raphael: I know, let's go to the choir room and hang out some more.

Tristan: I still don't understand why I am one of the 11B students.

Calum: Actually, nobody knows for sure yet.

Zoe: Guys, what about we go to the backyard, everything is back to normal again.

Everyone: Yeah! (laughs)
