Recess: The Big Prank (How it should've went)

Plot Summary
We know that TJ DetWeiller never got detention for his jokes and pranks in the original classic season 4 episode, but what if he did? what if he got grounded from going to the sleepover pizza party at the LaSalle's house?

Scene 1: The 3rd Street School lunchroom
Gretchen: "What could be keeping Mikey?"

TJ: "Here he comes now."

Mikey arrives with his lunch tray.

Mikey: "Hey, guys."

TJ: "Hey, Mikey, you mind scooting down to the end?"

Mikey: "Sure, TJ, you saving that for someone?"

TJ: "Sorry, Mikey, that's an unneed to know base."

Vince (on walkie-talkie): "Wild ravens to black widow, come in, black widow."

TJ (on walkie-talkie): "Black widow here, over."

Vince (on walkie-talkie): "The roach has entered the motel."

TJ (on walkie-talkie): "Roger, black widow to magpie, did you copy that?"

Spinelli (on walkie-talkie): "Affirmative, black widow, operation green jell-o is go, repeat: operation green jell-o in jars is go."

TJ hangs up his walkie-talkie and notices Randall.

TJ: "Bingo."

Randall stops right by the gang of 6.

TJ: "Hey, Randall, how's it going?"

Randall: "Uh, fine I guess."

TJ: "Hey, that's a tasty looking Salisbury steak you got there, care to join us?"

(Brief pause)

Randall: "You're not still sore about this morning?"

TJ: "So you told Ms. Finster I covered the mud puddle with leaves and grass and placed a paintelizing fruit pie in the middle, big deal, I say let bygones be bygones."

Randall: "Well in that case, I'd love to join you, eating alone is so over-rated."

Randall's about to sit right with the gang of 6.

TJ: "Excellent."

Randall sits right with the gang of 6.

TJ: "Scoot over a little bit, Randall."

Randall scoots right over next to Mikey.

TJ: "Oops, wrong way."

Randall scoots right over to the right side.

TJ: "There. perfect, comfortable, Randall?"

Randall: "I'm great, boy this is really nice of you guys, considering all the junk I-"

TJ: [Gasps In Surprise] "Oh my gosh, Mikey, they're giving away free peach cobbler!"

Mikey: "Free cobbler? oh boy!"

Mikey gets right up from his seat.

[Clang!]

Randall: "Whoaaaaaaaa!"

[Thud!]

[Splat!]

All 3rd Street School Students: [Laughing Uncontrollably]

Randall's now covered in green lime jell-o from his head to his shoulders.

Spinelli: [Whistles Loudly]

TJ's dancing around for his victory.

Randall: "Ohhhh! green lime jell-o, I'll get you for this, DetWeiller, mark my words!"

Outside on the school playground
Vince: "That was the best prank ever, man."

Spinelli: "Yeah, Teej, you're the froopin' best."

TJ: "It really was genius, wasn't it?"

Muriel shows up right in front of them.

Muriel: "Which 1 of you played the green lime jell-o prank on a certain student?"

Gretchen: "TJ did it, Ms. Finster."

Muriel: "Come with me, DetWeiller."

Muriel takes TJ's right hand.

TJ: "I'm c-c-c-coming, Ms. Finster ma'am."

Muriel takes TJ on his way to Peter's office.

Gus: "We gotta do something, you guys, jokes and pranks can lead to 15 minutes of detention!"

Vince: "Come on, Gus, how can they possibly punish Teej for a joke and prank he just played on Randall?"

Inside Peter Prickly's office
TJ: "And so I was offering Randall a seat during lunch time, and I told Mikey that they were giving away free peach cobbler and Mikey got up and it got Randall covered in green lime jell-o, it was a super good joke and prank, I'm telling you."

Peter: "TJ DetWeiller, I'm shocked and surprised about this, you're getting 15 minutes of detention and for that, I'm calling your parents right now."

TJ: "No, Principal Prickly sir, please don't call my parents, I'll be in super big trouble!"

Peter: "Well too bad for you, TJ, I'll just call your parents anyhow."

Peter dials the DetWeiller family members' telephone number.

Peter: "Hello? please ground TJ right now."

Back home at the DetWeiller family's house
TJ: "This just isn't fair, I was offering Randall a seat during lunch time, and I told Mikey that they were giving away free peach cobbler and Mikey got up and it got Randall covered in green lime jell-o from his head to his shoulders."

Sam: "Theodore Jasper DetWeiller, you pushed it way too far with the jell-o prank you played on a certain student this afternoon, and for that, you're grounded for another week, and the sleepover pizza party you were supposed to be at the LaSalle's house this weekend, forget about it."

TJ: "You can't do that to me!"

Ellie: "I'm afraid your father's absolutely right, Theodore, what you did to Randall wasn't a good idea."

Becky: "Okay, so like, what's going on?"

Sam: "We're terribly sorry about your brother's behavior,"

Ellie: "but what he did was unacceptable."
