Lola:
[Lola & Ella are at the mall, and they see Carla playing a dance game with a random opponent with a crowd of people cheering; unaware of Sidarthur's breakup]
Can you believe this? One of the most catastrophic events in the history of the universe has just occurred, and everyone's acting as if nothing has happened!
Carla:
[Carla finishes the game with her dance moves and the computer screen says "Winner!"]
Me again! Of course.
[to the crowd]
Carla:
So, who's next?
Lola:
[Lola quickly puts her hand up to volunteer]
Me!
Ella:
[to Lola, thinking she's lost it]
Are you crazy? Carla's the all-time champion!
Lola:
So? There's going to be a *new* all-time champion!
[steps onto the game board against Carla]
Lola:
I think you've peaked.
Carla:
Hop on!
[Carla presses the button and starts the game, the computer screen says "Round 1"]
Carla:
My father, who, as you know, is the lawyer for Sidarthur, just called me on my cellphone to tell me what he found out about the band.
Lola:
Oh, really?
[Lola and Carla begin dancing]
Carla:
[Carla and Lola begin dancing and follow the steps on the game]
What he told me isn't available to the public yet. Sidarthur's having a party in New York City next month. Daddy already has VIP seats, but, that's not the best part!
Lola:
I didn't think it would be!
[Lola and Carla still follow the steps on the game]
Carla:
There's going to be an awesome party afterwards at Stu Wolff's loft for all of Sidarthur's closest friends.
Lola:
So I've heard!
Carla:
[Lola and Carla still follow the steps]
And guess who already has an invitation?
Lola:
[Lola and Carla still continue dancing]
It just so happens that Ella and I do.
Carla:
Oh, really?
Lola:
Yeah, really!
Carla:
How'd you manage that?
Lola:
Same way you did; through parental connections.
Carla:
What connections do you have other than the phone?
[Carla hops over the dance board and back again, following the steps. Marcia and Robin claps as they see Carla dance. The computer board displays "Winner" on Carla's screen]
Carla:
Me again!
Lola:
[the computer screen displays "Loser" on Lola's screen]
Game's not over yet.
[Lola hits the button and the computer screen displays "Round 2" and Lola and Carla start dancing]
Lola:
Actually, my mother has the connections. Marsh Foreman bought a piece from her last summer. And "Marshy", as I call him, is their manager.
Carla:
[Carla and Lola follow the steps, Carla knows who the manager is and is annoyed with Lola]
I know who he is!
Lola:
[Lola and Carla follow the steps on the game]
He remembered I was crazy about Sidarthur, so he got us invited.
Carla:
[sarcastically to Lola, while following the dance steps]
Wow! Your mom must be *some* potter!
[Lola and Carla follow the steps, only to discover Carla missing the steps and Lola following all the steps, hopping over the dance board and beating Carla. Marcia and Robin stare at each other in shock when they see Carla get beat. The computer screen displays "Winner" on Lola's screen and the crowd cheers]
Lola:
Me! Lola Steppe! Remember that name!
[Carla huffs and leaves as the computer screen displays "Loser" on Carla's board. The computer screen says "Awesome!" and tallies up the high score. Lola is exhausted and collapses as the crowd cheers]
