- Okay, "You're having
a slumber party
"and your best friend
dares you to call
the boy you have a crush on.
What do you do?"
- That depends.
How cute is the boy?
- [laughs]
- Okay,
why are you guys reading
Teen Girl magazine?
- To learn stuff.
- About what?
- Teen girls.
- Ah.
- All right,
skip to the next one.
- Okay, okay, um...
ooh, here we are.
"Your best friend borrows
your lip gloss without asking."
- [gasps]
- Yeah, yeah. Okay.
"Do you, A,
get a new best friend,
B, push her down a flight
of stairs, or, C"--
- What?
It doesn't say that.
- I know, but I feel it should
definitely be an option.
- Well, I say B.
Down the stairs she goes.
[both laugh]
- [scoffs] You guys are sick.
- Yeah.
- We pretty much are.
- Hey, Zo,
they don't have grapes.
You want some raisins?
- No. I hate raisins.
- Why do you hate raisins?
- They're all wrinkly.
I feel like I'm eating
little, bitty old people.
- And we're sick?
- Ohh! Hey, you have
those little Goo Pops.
- Yeah. We just got 'em in.
You want some Goo?
- Yeah.
I wanna buy...
a raspberry and a lime.
Hey, Zoey, come over here.
You gotta taste this.
- What is it?
- Goo Pops.
They're awesome.
- How do I open it?
- Oh, easy.
You just bite the tip,
then you just squeeze.
Wait.
It's not coming out.
[growls]
[gasps]
- It came out.
NICOLE: Well?
- I'm sorry,
it won't come out.
I'm afraid you're gonna
have to buy the backpack.
- Aw, man!
- How much is it?
- With tax, $50.
- Ow!
I don't have 50 bucks.
- Well, maybe you can
borrow it from a friend.
- Whoa-ho!
Look at the time.
- We're late.
[bell chimes]
- I have 30.
- I have 20.
- Not anymore.
Thanks, Zoey.
I really feel bad.
- Here.
Then have another Goo Pop.
- Thanks.
I don't know why that other one
squirted out like that.
All I did was squeeze a little,
like this.
[gasps]
- Leaf quality:
firm yet spongy.
- Hey, Quinn.
- What's up?
- This.
- A banana tree?
- It was, until I altered
its genetic structure.
- So it's not a banana tree
anymore?
QUINN: No, sir.
Now it's a banapple tree.
- Sure.
- You see, my two favorite
fruits of all time
are the banana...
and the apple,
so I crossbred their DNA
to create
the very first banapple tree.
When these fruit babies
turn red,
they'll be ready
for chewing.
- So, let me get this
straight.
You're growing
a new fruit
that's half apple
and half banana?
- That is correct.
- [snickers]
- Fine.
Laugh now.
But when these ripen
and turn red,
get ready for the best
fruit experience
of your lifetime.
- Okay.
- We'll be ready.
Later.
- See ya.
- Mmm!
Hurry up and mature.
I can't wait.
[static on radio]
- Stupid backpack.
Stupid Goo Pop stain.
- You know, you could
still use the backpack.
- No, I can't.
It's all--
- Stupid?
- Yeah.
[sighs]
[static]
Would you guys just pick
a radio station already?
That static
is driving me insane.
- I'm trying.
Chase, can you fix our stereo?
- Ah, uh,
let me take a look.
[changing stations, static]
Man, how old is this thing?
It's, like, prehistoric.
MICHAEL: Yeah, it looks like
it's from the '80s.
- Thanks.
[static]
- What's up, Zoe, Nicole?
- Nothing.
What you guys up to?
- About to catch a movie
on campus.
- Yeah, we're seeing
Spider-Bat.
- You wanna come with?
- We can't!
- Okay,
and, uh, why the screaming?
- She's mad 'cause
we don't have any money left.
- 'Cause I had to spend it all
on this stupid backpack.
[scoffs]
- Did you hear that,
backpack?
- Apparently,
you're very stupid.
- Very.
- Later.
- Bye.
[balloon pops]
[mournful pop music playing]
[door opens]
[balloon pops]
[door closes]
[balloon pops]
- Hey.
- Hey.
[balloon pops]
- Um, what are you doing?
- sh**ting unpopped
popcorn kernels at balloons.
[balloon pops]
- That's how you're spending
your Friday night?
- It's all I can afford
to do.
[balloon pops]
Where have you been
all night?
- Making something.
[balloon pops]
Ta-da!
- Whoa!
That's such a cool backpack.
- I'm glad you think so,
'cause it's yours.
- Huh?
- It's the one you bought
this afternoon.
- [gasps] It is.
How'd you do this?
- I just...did it.
- Wow, you covered up the goo
and everything.
- Yep. No more goo.
- It's pink.
My banapple is pink!
- What does that mean?
- Soon they'll be ripe
and red,
and I will have
successfully crossbred
the banana and the apple
to create the best fruit
in the universe!
[door opens, closes]
[door opens]
- I love this.
- Cool backpack.
[door closes]
- Okay,
geometry is impossible.
I mean,
what is a trapezoid?
- It's a quadrilateral
with two parallel sides.
- But I-I thought
that was a rhombus.
- No.
Weren't you listening in class?
- A rhombus is
an equilateral parallelogram.
- Okay, but what is
a parallelogram?
- I'm not telling you again.
Look in your textbook.
- Hey, Nicole,
where'd you get the backpack?
- Oh, Zoey made it.
- really?
- Yeah.
- I want one.
- You know,
these are pretty cool.
You should,
like, make a guy's version.
- Totally.
- Okay. Gimme.
Don't you wanna
get your books out
so you can study later?
- Oh, gross!
- Okay, I'll call you
when it's ready.
CHASE: Cool.
Oh, wait!
What's a parallelogram?
- It's a four-side
plane figure
with opposite parallel sides.
Doi!
- Yeah?
Well, I'm taller than you.
- Okay, what do you think?
[all murmuring]
- Awesome!
You sure this is
my same backpack?
- Of course.
- Oh, yeah.
There's the b*llet hole.
Kidding.
- Zoey, these are so cool.
When are you gonna do mine?
- And mine?
- Soon, I promise.
- You know what, Zo?
You should sell these.
- Hey, that is
a really good idea.
- I know.
- Ah, I don't know.
- Seriously,
if these were in a store,
people would totally
buy 'em.
- Yeah, absolutely.
- In a heartbeat.
- You really think so?
- I'd buy one, except, you know,
I already got this one
for free,
so it'd be pretty silly
for me to
buy another one when I already,
um--
this is free, right?
- I'll think about it.
[laughter]
- Excuse me. Hi.
Sorry to eavesdrop.
I was just putting up these
flyers for the senior bake sale.
Um, Zoey, right?
- Uh-huh.
- Did you really make
these backpacks?
- Yeah.
- How talented is she?
- Extremely.
Hey, you mind if I take
a couple pics
for the school paper?
- Go ahead.
- Great.
[camera beeps]
This is so cool.
Really great job.
- Hey, uh, do you want
to take a pic
with the backpack on me?
- Yeah, not really.
- Yeah.
I--I didn't want to.
- This is so genius.
Let me see that one.
[camera beeps]
Nice.
- It's now been three weeks
since my banapple tree
first fruited.
Color?
Reddish orange.
Texture?
Smooth.
Smell?
[sniffing]
Banapple-ly.
Wait.
What is this?
[seagulls cawing]
Birds.
This isn't over!
Nobody messes with my
banapples, ya hear me, demons?
[seagulls cawing]
Don't worry,
my mutant little fruits.
I'll protect you.
- So what do you
want to do tonight?
- I don't know.
Rent a movie?
- With what money?
- Oh, yeah.
Well, we could, uh...
sh**t balloons
with a slingshot.
- I already sh*t 'em all,
and balloons cost
Man, it stinks being poor,
doesn't it?
- Kinda.
- So psyched.
So I called my boyfriend...
- Hey, did you see
those backpacks?
- Yeah.
- I love it.
Don't you just love it?
- Okay, what is going on?
- That is.
- Thank you.
- Ooh, check out this one.
- Come on.
- Oh, hi, girls.
Hey, if you want to buy
one of my backpacks,
you'd better hurry.
They're selling fast.
♪ ♪
- Hey, Zoey.
- What's going on?
What?
- That!
- Hey, I thought you said
you didn't want to sell
your backpacks.
- I did.
I mean, I didn't.
I mean,
I did say that I didn't
want to sell 'em.
- Wait. So those aren't
your backpacks?
- No.
That mean chick Stacy
stole Zoey's idea.
- Oh, hey, remember.
There'll be more
Backpacks by Stacy in next week.
Tell your friends.
- [sighs]
Um...hi.
- Hi.
Is there a problem?
- Yeah, there's a problem.
You stole Zoey's backpack idea.
- I'm sorry,
I have no idea
what you're talking about.
- Yeah, you do.
- Would you like to buy
one of my backpacks?
- Dude, we know
that these were Zoey's idea.
- I'm sorry.
We're closed.
Come back another day.
- You're not closed.
- Yeah.
You're just a table.
You can't close a table.
She closed the table.
- Let's get outta here.
- Thank you.
Come again.
[mouthing words]
- Maybe you can sue her.
You know, my uncle's a lawyer,
and he just got out of jail.
So he's, like, available.
- [scoffs]
I'm not gonna sue the girl.
- Why not?
- Because I'm 13,
and 13-year-olds
don't sue people.
- Well, they should.
Michael, don't you think Zoey
should sue that girl?
[music plays on headphones]
Michael!
- Ow!
- Man, you're good
with projectiles,
aren't you?
- Did you just hit me
with this raisin?
You could've put my eye out!
- I was trying
to get your attention.
- Well, excuse me,
but I got 30,000 songs
to listen to on this thing.
- You got the new one?
How do you like it?
- I love it,
except for these headphones.
I hate sticking these things
in my ear,
'cause after a while,
it starts to hurt, you know?
- Can we talk about
Zoey's backpack situation,
please?
- You guys
want to talk backpacks?
Seen the school paper today?
- Why? What's in it?
- Oh, just a little article
about Stacy's backpacks.
- What?
- Check the headline.
- "Backpack att*ck."
- Hey, that's really clever.
Well, it rhymes.
- Oh, and it gets worse.
Stacy's backpacks--
the PCA bookstore,
wants to start selling 'em.
MICHAEL: No way.
- Yeah way,
and they're gonna give her
a big cut of the profits.
- No way.
- Once again,
yeah way.
MICHAEL:
Man, this is unbelievable.
Stacy's gonna be rich.
- That headline should say,
"Stacy: A Big Ol'
Backpack Stealer."
Or something clever.
- Well, at least we know
these were Zoey's idea.
Ah, man,
these books are heavy.
Michael, rub my shoulders.
- Have you lost your mind?
- Come on. I hurt.
Friends don't let
other friends hurt.
- Well, these headphones
are hurting my ears.
What, you want to massage
my ear hole?
Come on. Massage it.
Stick your finger in there.
- Fine! I'll massage
my own shoulders.
NICOLE: Zoey, are you
just gonna let that
nasty Stacy get rich
off your idea?
- Does it say
when the bookstore's
gonna start selling
her backpacks?
- Yeah. It says Stacy's
having some big meeting
there this Friday.
- Interesting.
- Ooh,
you're thinking things.
- Yeah, she's definitely
thinking things.
- Um...Quinn?
- Hmm?
- What are you doing?
- Erecting a scarecrow
to protect my banapples
from evil birds.
- Oh, so that's supposed
to scare 'em off?
- No.
- Then how does it
protect your fruit?
- Here, I'll show you.
Give me your hat.
- Why?
- Give it to me.
Now, watch what happens
when your hat
encroaches upon the fruit.
[laser fires]
[sizzling]
- You know what?
I should stop asking you
so many questions.
- So I just expanded
on my original idea
and created these
different styles.
- Great. Just great.
You know, kids come in here
every day
asking if we sell these.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah, and I'm always
telling 'em, "No, we don't sell
Backpacks by Stacy."
But does that stop 'em?
Nope.
STACY: Wow.
That is so great.
- So you ready
to talk business?
- I am.
So all of these...
- Zoey, the rabbit's
in the hole.
ZOEY: Huh? What rabbit?
- [sighs] Stacy's here,
and the deal's going down.
And you try to be cool...
- Are these for sale yet?
- Yeah. When do they go on sale?
- Hey, hey!
I'm trying to make a deal
with the girl.
[all murmuring]
- Guys,
look how cool this is.
- Okay,
I provide my backpacks,
you sell them for $70 apiece;
out of that, $67 goes to me,
and then you get to keep--
- Hey, everybody!
Come outside.
You've gotta see this!
- Let's check it out.
- Afternoon.
- What's going on?
- Uh, I don't--I don't know.
Uh, sir! Sir!
- Okay, these are insane.
- Aren't they?
- Yeah!
- So cool.
GIRL: I so gotta have one.
- What's all the fuss about?
- I-I don't know.
Let's go back inside, hmm?
Eh--no, sir, wrong way.
Sir, over here! Sir!
- Excuse me.
What's going on here?
- Oh, I'm just
selling my backpacks.
- Backpacks by Zoey.
- Hey, uh, Zoey,
this feels awesome.
- What does he mean,
"feels awesome"?
- Well, see, Zoey's backpacks
have some cool new features.
- Sir, we were
about to make a deal.
- Wait.
What do you mean by features?
- Oh, you see,
you just turn this knob,
and it massages your back.
[backpack vibrating]
Oh, oh, yeah!
Oh, that's nice.
That is tremendous.
- Oh, you wanna try one?
- And then...
[backpack vibrating]
- Oh...
Oh!
Oh-ho-ho-ho.
This feels good.
- Sir, our meeting?
- And if you
really wanna relax,
turn the other knob.
MAN: ♪ Turn it up,
I just... ♪
- Oh, my God.
It's a radio too?
- Yes, sir, and you can plug
an MP3 player into it.
- So you can listen to music
without having
to stick headphones
in your ear.
- Great.
Fantastic idea.
- You're right.
Just look around.
People love 'em.
- Excuse me.
I wanna buy a Backpack by Zoey.
- But you already have
a Backpack by Stacy.
- Yeah. It's lame.
- [whimpers]
- I love this one,
and it vibrates
and plays music?
- That's right.
- I want it.
- Uh, you're Zoey, right?
- That's me.
- Listen, you want
to make a deal
so we can sell your backpacks
at the PCA bookstore?
- Excuse me!
- Come on, Zoey.
We have a lot to talk about.
- Sir! Wait!
What about my backpacks?
- Oh, uh, there's one
in the trash over there.
- [screams]
- Okay, I know
there's been a lot of questions
about my backpack deal
with the bookstore.
- No, not a lot of questions.
- Just one.
How much you gonna make?
- Yeah, how much cash
we talking here?
[everyone talking]
- Hey! Hey!
[whistles]
[talking stops]
Just so you know,
I didn't take any money.
- Okay, um,
that's a bad deal.
- No, instead of the money,
I asked for something cool,
something we could all use.
You ready?
[all murmuring]
[all exclaiming]
- Look at that thing.
- I know.
- Well, quit yapping
and juke it up.
[beeping]
[whirring]
- Isn't it cool?
- Nice.
- Beyond cool.
- Yep. That is definitely
juke-tastic.
- Hey.
- Michael, where you been?
- Well, I had to
finish up some homework.
Hey, how come Quinn's
all upset?
- Where is she?
- Outside
by her crazy tree.
Man, that's juke-tastic.
- Where did I go wrong?
- Hey, Quinn.
- What's the matter?
- My banapple tree bites.
- Well, what's the problem
with it?
- I don't know.
I guess something must have
gone wrong when I combined
the molecular structure.
- What, the banapples
don't taste good?
- No, and they're dangerous.
- Dangerous? How?
- Their juice is like
a powerful acid.
Here, look.
Back to square one.
[sighs]
- My bike!
- Hey,
love the backpack, Zoey.
- You're a genius.
- Thanks.
- You did good, Zo.
- Yeah, she did.
