So, you're on the basketball team.

Uh, actually, I'm the captain.

Well, aye aye, captain.

Okay, how upset would you be if I threw South so far she became north?

Sorry, what?

She's all up on Diggie and she needs to not be.

Okay, well then, Maddie, just talk to her.

I mean, all you have to do is say that he's your boyfriend.

Boy-friend.

Diggie and I don't play fast and loose with language like that.

Listen to yourself!

No wonder South thinks he's available.

Okay, well, can't you talk to her I mean, she listens to you.

You once talked her into wearing a parrot as a hat to the "sing it loud" premiere.

Yeah, I didn't want her wearing the same bird as me.

So you'll talk to her and tell her to stay away from my friend boy?

"Friend boy"?

Okay, Maddie, South is not the problem here.

You are.

I mean, it's as clear as my skin after a facial.

Or anytime, really.

Fine, I'll talk to her.

By the way, your face is really blotchy right now.

The instructions say to place the prism on top of a janitor's mop right here and wait for the moonglow to hit it.

Well then, we wait.

I spy with my little eye - Something - The prism.

Mmm!

I knew that was too obvious.

No!

Look, the prism!

I knew it.

I knew it.

It worked, it worked, it worked!

Ugh!

I spy with my little eye The key of power.

It is mine!

I alone will unearth the secrets of locker C-23!

Is that Liv holding a "go to prom with me, Artie" sign?

Oh!

Oh, I know she's not there, but still I must turn!

What?

Maddie told me to be nice to South, so I've been hanging out with her all night.

Who's racking up major brownie points with his lady?

This guy.

- South!

- Hmm?

Can I talk to you for a second?

Sure thing.

Keep my step warm.

I see what you're doing, my man.

Game recognizes game.

Why were you in there?

Because I wouldn't have your attention if I had just walked up the stairs, now would I?

Stay away from South.

My sister might have a crush on you, but I will crush you!

Hey, so I just want to talk to you about Diggie.

Oh, let me start.

He is good-looking and he can sing.

You don't even know.

I don't even know.

Yeah, so listen, he's kind of It's like He's well, I mean, you know, he's, like He's sort of It's mostly So, uh, yeah.

Ha!

Nailed that.

So does he have a girlfriend?

Mmm, failed that.

Oh!

Does Diggie have a girlfriend?

Wow.


Interesting.

Um, that's a really charged and labelly word, you know?

You don't even know what I know, he is "c" to the "u" To the "t-e," cute!

Mm-hmm.

She's right.

He is cute.

Be a shame if something were to happen to him.

So, are you ready to see me open locker C-23 with the key of power?

Never underestimate a ginger!

We have paprika in our blood!

Hey, mom, you okay?

Oh, I'm fine.

Mom, come on.

I know that look.

I've worn that look.

- What's wrong?

- I'm just sitting here, wondering how I'm supposed to measure up to a supermodel/doctor.

Yeah, I saw her.

Nice work, dad.

But You are a few things she's not.

You're funny and smart and pretty darn cool.

Thank you, honey.

What else am I?

A little needy right now.

But you're also a great mom.

That's very sweet.

There's one other thing: Dad married you.

Well, he did, didn't he?

He could've married christie Brinkley in there and instead he chose Carol Burnett.

I have no idea who either of those people are.

But if it makes you happy, go with it.

Tell your mommy you wuv her!

Artie.

Oh, there you are.

- Are you okay?

- Yeah.

You've been chomping ice all night.

I just needed a minute, but I'm better than ever.

Okay.

May I present for their throwback dance, our prom king and queen Pete Rooney and Amy Becker!

Oh no, I'm too late!

I'm afraid so, Joey, but you've got a good view as I meet my destiny.

Did not see that coming.

My inability to take the stairs in a timely fashion has saved me once again.

And now, my destiny awaits.

It worked!

Class of '89 burn!

South didn't get it when I told her to leave Diggie alone.

You guys are still there, right?

Hey.
