Freaky Friday

Frustration and Teenage Drama Unfolds

Harry I don't think he knows I even exist, so stupid thinkin about him, but I can't help it. Jake! Ooooh! Jake!

Anna GET OUTTA MY ROOOOM!!! OUT! Oh! My... My... Ah! I HATE YOU AND YOU'RE NEVER LOSING DOOR *AGAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNN!!* Aaah!

[Anna chases the boys from her room; Realizes her door is missing]

Ryan She saw it.

[Anna shrieks again offscreen]

Grandpa I'm gonna check out those Lakers.

Ryan I'm with you.

Anna Mom! Mom, did you see what happened to my doo--?

[sees Tess sitting at the table with her arms crossed]

Tess I spoke to your principal.

Anna What?!

Tess Just now, on the phone.

Anna Where's my door?

Tess Privacy is a privilege, Anna.

Anna Where's my door, Mom?

Tess Your door will be returned to you, Anna, if or when you can explain--

Anna I need my door. You give me the door, or I will kill myself!

Harry Oh! Can I watch?

[to Tess]

Tess Harry!

Anna SHUT UP!!!

[Boys run away]

Tess I think we can dispense with the drama. And maybe you can just calmly explain to me why you were in detention twice today.

Anna Okay, I went to detention. But that was only because Stacey Hinkhouse kept hitting me on the head with a volleyball!

Tess Now, when is this conflict with Stacey Hinkhouse going to end?

Anna Never, because she's an insane, psycho freak! And you'd know that if you'd paid like a speck of attention while door is gone and it’s all your fault!

Tess Anna?!

Anna What?!

Tess I think you know I pay attention, Anna. Enough to know that you got an F in English today.

Anna Well, Mr. Bates is out to get me.

Tess Oh, him too?

Anna Yeah. You know, he just looks for ways to torture me. Like the one time Jake even spoke to me, he totally...

Tess Who's Jake?

Anna He's just... nobody.

Tess You say I'm not interested, Anna. I'm interested. Try me.

Anna Okay, he's just this really amazing guy, Mom.

Tess Where'd you meet him?

Anna Detention, but...

Tess That's promising.

[Laughing]

Anna See? Do you see? Why do I even bother telling you anything?

Ryan Okay, who's up for Chinese?

Anna ]

[Screaming; [The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland|YOU'RE RUINING MY LIFE!!! I'M MOVING OUT TOMORROW WHILE SLEEP IS GONE AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT AND I'M NEVER COMING BACK EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER AGAIN! NEVER *AGAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIN!!*]

Pei-Pei Hello, how are you?

Tess Hello, Pei-Pei.

Pei-Pei Anna, Harry, you're so big now. What happened? Are you happy for your mommy?

Anna About what?

Pei-Pei Oh. She's such a joker. Who's catering? Chinese food good luck.

[laughs]

Tess It's all planned already.

Pei-Pei Okay, how about me?

Ryan Anna, I preordered the Peking Duck.

Anna Joy.

Ryan Well, I know that's your favorite.

Anna Whatever.

Tess The wedding is in two days.

Pei-Pei Think about it. See you soon. Happy dining.

Ryan Anna, your door is underneath the back stairs.

Anna Like I didn't figure that out.

Grandpa Stop groveling, man. Let her come to you.

Ryan She'd come with a hatchet. I think I'll go check on that duck.

Tess Anna, do you really think that your surliness is the best way for you to get what you want?

Anna I'm sorry, Mom. I really have been stressing in school, and I deserved every single one of those trips to detention. And I'm gonna apologize to Stacey Hinkhouse and Mr. Bates. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'll try and do better, Mom. I'll really, really try.

Tess All right, what do you want?

Anna To go to this really important audition tomorrow that we can never have again at the House of Blues.

Tess An audition, that's great. Tomorrow? You mean after the rehearsal dinner?

Anna Well, during.

Tess During". You mean as "instead of"?

Anna Technically?

Tess Anna, I need to talk to you right now.

Anna I think I'm gonna pass on that.

Tess Now! Anna, I am going to make one final attempt to understand what goes on in your head.

Anna Don't treat me like your patients.

Tess What?

Anna All calm and reasonable. Let's talk about it. I really want to understand.

Tess I really do want to understand, Anna!

Hostess Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Pei-Pei Oh, Mama, stay out of it, please. Mama.

Anna Okay, fine. They're gonna pick one local band to play at Wango Tango. We were lucky to make this cut. Seriously, it's a once-in-a-lifetime chance, Mom. Please. Why can't I just go? Please.

Tess And what I hear is that my special night means absolutely nothing to you.

Anna I don't even have to ask if my band means anything to you. It's totally clear to us that you guys think we're all noise.

Harry Look, I'm a walrus!

Tess I do not!

Anna Do too!

Tess Anna, I let you practice in the garage. Anna, stop.

Anna What?

Tess Let's talk about what this is really about, okay? This is about your dad, isn't it?

Anna Mom, stop shrinking me. It's not about Dad. It's about the audition! You're ruining my life!

Tess Enough with the drama. Anna, high school is not that hard.

Anna You couldn't last one day in my high school.

Tess I could, and I would do it without getting a detention.
