Make It Pop (2015) s01e09 Episode Script

I Am Genius

1 Last time on Make it Pop.
You're masked girl? And you lied to me about it? Kiss the crown goodbye, because Corki is going all the way.
This isn't over.
I'm going to the dance this Friday and I'm going with you.
I can't be your date.
I'm DJ-ing it.
Keep it moving people.
Nothing to see here.
Step aside, Step aside! What's going on here? Oh, it's nothin, just a little electrical explosion.
Nothing a little elbow grease can't clean up.
I've been working on my solo performance for Homecoming.
When Mr.
Stark sees it, he'll cast me as Dorothy.
I can show you the moves if you want.
Here? Is there ever a bad time for my moves? Ah 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8.
Wow.
Hey, wait up! Hey, ready for our aptitude test? I'm so excited.
Attitude test! Hey you! I'm a diva!!! Deal with it.
That's an A+ right there.
Aptitude, Sun Hi, not attitude.
Huh? Oh.
But I didn't study! You can't study for an aptitude test.
It assesses what kind of person you are so you can have direction in life.
Oh I get it.
So, like: "Are you a) Fabulous b) Fabulous c) Fabulous d) All of the above?" I'll do just fine.
This place is a mess.
It's a bigger disaster than my last hair cut.
Let's just say, not everyone can pull off bangs.
I dunno.
I've seen worse.
I'm going to assume you had something to do with this? Well you know Assumptions can be silly, Yet, oddly accurate.
I'm sorry.
Why did I ever agree to let you DJ the dance? Come on.
All this needs is a couple boards, a few nails and ta-da! Good as new.
You'd better hope that's true.
If this isn't fixed in time for Homecoming, heads will roll.
Starting with yours, Mr.
Davis.
And followed closely by yours, Mr.
Stark.
I love my head.
And I am pretty sure it's not replaceable.
Imagine how I feel after mine has aged so gracefully.
Ah Ms.
Diona.
Who knew that an aptitude test would be worse than a regular test? Seriously.
It was like a test designed to tell us we're bad at taking tests.
Wow!!! Are you kidding me? I've never seen a dress so beautiful! That kind of reaction never gets old.
I was hoping Jared would've asked me to the dance by now, but nothing.
Don't worry, he will, and then he won't be able to take his eyes off you in this little number.
Why does anyone care about being noticed by boys? You do realize that most them just have one pair of pants that they wear over and over, right? It's disgusting.
Which one of you is Sun Hi Song? Later, girls.
My public calls.
I assume you want to interview me for something? Who are you with? A TV show? Website? Magazine? All three? No, this is about your aptitude test.
We need to talk.
Actually, that's Sun Hi.
My name's Jodi.
I love dancing and fashion.
Make it pop, woo, woo Make it pop, Woo Woo, I can't wait no I can't wait no, I can't wait, no I can't wait So make it pop, we're bout to, we're bout to blow Wait till we drop Oh ya, we're ready to go Ain't gonna stop, when is it time for the show We make it, you make it, they make it M-m-m-m-m-m- Make it pop Seriously, what could they be talking about? Whooo, maybe this is one of those hidden camera shows When they show this on TV, I'll pretend to be all embarrassed.
Hey, whoever's filming this, that thing I just said? Don't use in the clip! Just kidding, you should totally use all of this.
Everything I do is gold.
Corki's right.
This is my masterpiece.
This should be hanging in a gallery, not a closet.
Is it done? Can I try it on now? It's really amazing, Jodi.
How do I ever repay you for being such a wonderful, generous friend? Cash is fine.
Kidding.
I'm just happy you like it.
Can I try on my Homecoming dress now? Dress? What dress? Can I please have it? Of course.
Take it.
What's with all the secret talk, huh? Did I fail the test? I failed, right? Or did it reveal something horrible about me? Like I'm a narcissist or something? No, that can't be it -- I'm flawless.
C'mon! Just tell me! Why am I here?! Why do you think you're here, Sun Hi? I think I'm here to receive an award for general awesomeness, but that is why I always think I am anywhere, so it really doesn't help.
Surprisingly, the test revealed something we never expected.
Sun Hi You are a genius.
Not my fault.
The scores are wrong.
I want a re-count Say what now? I said, you're a genius.
You mean like an evil genius? My parents tell me that all the time.
Your musical and intra personal intelligence are off the charts.
Discovering someone as special as you is what makes me love my job.
Sun Hi Song.
Genius.
Ha.
Ha.
Okay so, we'll just um I knew I was gifted.
Whoa! Where is my dress? What dress? The dress you made for me.
You lost the dress? No, I left it right there.
You finished it, gave it to me, had a hard time handing it over, And then it was gone.
Someone either took it or kept it for themselves? Excuse me? It's just you literally wouldn't hand it over this morning.
Are you sure you didn't change your mind and decide to keep it? That's crazy Make way! Super Genius in the house! You laughed when I tried to invent electric pants, but look who is now a certified genius, Ding! I'm totally confused.
It's true.
Sun Hi is a genius.
Now we have two giant mysteries on our hands.
Well, luckily I'm here to help solve them! That's probably something that geniuses do, right? Come to think of it I don't know what a genius does Bam bop bop bale Bop bop bam bop bop baley S-U-N-Hi IQ higher than you 3-4 out the door 5-6 I've got tricks Tricks tricks tricks You think your cool but that's irrelevant You wanna show me something be intelligent I'm always way way way ahead of it I can't help the way my eomma made me Learning makes me stronger it just takes you so much longer Didn't study for a second Just took it and passed it All with out my glasses It's how I'm ma a a a a a a de It's how I'm ma a a a a a a de It's how I'm ma a a a a a a de It's how I'm ma a a a a a a de Straight A's but you never know it Top Marks but I don't show it My Grades oh yeah I own it Bam, ba ba, bam bam You think your cool but that's irrelevant You wanna show me something be intelligent I'm always way way way ahead of it Bam, ba ba, bam bam I can't help the way my eomma made me Learning makes me stronger It just takes you so much longer Didn't study for a second Just took it and passed it All with out my glasses It's how I'm ma a a a a a a de It's how I'm ma a a a a a a de It's how I'm ma a a a a a a de It's how I'm ma a a a a a a de Bam bop bop bale bop bop bam bop bop baley Genius Pretty sure I'll be a genius at being a genius.
Hello.
How's my newly discovered genius doing? Good! I mean, marvelous.
That's a "genius" word for good.
We have a plan for you, Sun Hi.
I believe it will make you very happy.
You're not putting me on some of genius island, are you? Not exactly.
You'll be transferred to the Fobblesmith School for Advanced Studies.
A new school? Similar to MacKendrick, but made up entirely of gifted students like yourself.
People teetering on the verge of international super stardom? Courses are college level.
No distractions.
No interruptions.
All learning, all the time.
Is that even possible -- to learn all the time? I mean, what about those couple of hours after lunch when my brain usually shuts down? That's called English Class.
Don't worry, they operate on the honor system there, no tests or grades.
No tests? I'm in.
The alumni include a couple of Nobel Prize winners.
I love awards! Then polish up your acceptance speech.
No need! I've had it memorized since I was three.
So she's really leaving? ories I'll need for genius school.
Maybe like a calculator shirt.
Jodi can you get to work on one of those for me? I can't believe you're leaving, Sun Hi.
Ow.
Ow.
Ow.
And I can't believe she's a genius.
Yeah, I guess I'm truly a quintuple threat.
Singer, dancer, actor and genius.
That'd be a quadruple threat.
I like to throw one in for free - that's how geniuses roll.
Are you sure you want to go? Yeah, I guess.
It's like Ms.
Rhodes said, it'll be good to be around other people like me.
But, we're like you.
You're our friend.
And we're in a band together.
I've got it, Sun Hi! The perfect Homecoming solo! Oh right.
I'm gonna miss Homecoming.
You're kidding right? No, Caleb.
I'm way too smart to make jokes anymore.
She's switching to a school for geniuses.
Evil geniuses? That's what I said! But what about the band? We haven't even begun to tap into our potential yet.
I have grown pretty attached to MacKendrick Prep.
I've got a long, fabulous history here.
You've only been here a couple of weeks.
That's practically a record for me.
Good point.
I'll miss so much -- my solo Homecoming performance, my chance to become an international superstar Ahem And my friends! I'll miss my friends.
I probably should've said that first.
Hey, Mr.
Stark.
What are you doing here, Mr.
Davis? Just testing my DJ equipment for Homecoming.
Sadly, Sun Hi's performance is a no go, but rest assured my DJ skills will blow you away.
Poor choice of words -- you're gonna love it.
Listen, don't bother setting up.
No, it's fine, let them keep working.
I don't think you understand.
I can't afford to take another chance.
I'm sorry, Mr.
Davis, but you're out as DJ.
Oh and if I hear of any opportunities for an affordable demolition man I'll give you a dingle.
How could you have lost it? It's a dress, not a bus pass.
I didn't lose it.
It just disappeared.
Guys! Ms.
Rhodes is coming to get me any minute.
What am I gonna do? I don't want to go.
Then convince her you don't belong at her school.
How? By acting like you're not a genius.
I'm great at that! We know you are.
Hello? She's here! Hi, it's Sun Hi.
Can I come in? It's Ms.
Rhodes.
Hi Ms.
Rhodes, can you open up? Thank you What a lovely hallway.
Um, are you ready to go? Sure.
Just let me get my suitcase.
Opps! I forgot to pull on the thingie that keeps the suitcase, not open.
The zipper? That's a funny name.
"Zipper.
" They should call it Mr.
Holdy togethery-boing-boing-fun.
It's less complication-ed.
I think you mean "complicated.
" Did she recently receive a blow to the head? No, she was always like this.
Except sometimes she isn't this smart.
I see what's going on here.
The apprehension, the resistance to change, Apprehension? That's a big word.
Will I learn that at genius school? Sun Hi, please, stop.
You're not fooling anyone.
Fine! I'm a genius.
I know what zippers are! Then what's the problem? The problem is, I love my life here.
My friends, my music.
I finally found a place that I can be happy.
Okay.
Look, I'm sorry, but you just can't make me-- Wait, did you say okay? I am disappointed.
You would have thrived at Fobblesmith, I'm sure of it.
But we'd never force you to go there.
You wouldn't? I trust you'll find what's best for you, after all, you are a very smart girl.
I don't usually hear those words without, "But you don't apply yourself" after them.
Thanks.
Good luck, Sun Hi.
Okay, but make sure he still knows I'm a genius.
It gives me an edge when he disagrees with me.
I'm glad you're staying.
It'll be good to have a friend I can trust.
Ughhhhh! You are so frustrating! I didn't take the dress! Guys.
I don't want to make this all about me staying at MacKendrick, but could you please make this all about me staying at MacKendrick? C'mon.
Let's rehearse.
Yep.
All set.
Let's do this! Even though we're tight Don't see eye to eye I don't wanna fight Can't we let it slide Round and round in circles It all ends the same But it's always worth it Friends will never change We'll end up right where we began Bring it from the start, time to take a stand We're still gonna be the best of friends Wake up, make up That's the way we blend My girls! We're all on the same team My girls! We're not here to play My girls! Living for the same dream My girls! Every day ay ay ay My girls Nah nah nah nah nah nah My girls Nah nah nah nah nah We're one and the same Separate in style But I see your game I know you that is why When you give it good I can give it back You get on my nerves But we're still on the same track We'll end up right where we began Bring it from the start, time to take a stand We're still gonna be the best of friends Wake up, make up That's the way we blend My girls! We're all on the same team My girls! We're not here to play My girls! Living for the same dream My girls! Every day ay ay ay We're the same that's all it's ever been Way closer than all our other friends You got me and I got you We fight but in the end we stick like glue Nothing now can break us down We run this school We'll rule this town Across this land around the world Better watch out for me and my girls My girls! Noo, no, nooooooo My girls! Every day ay ay ay My girls! We're all on the same team My girls! We're not here to play My girls! Living for the same dream My girls! Every day ay ay ay Okay, that was ah interesting.
Should we run it again? Maybe with a little less obvious rivalry this time? I'm sorry.
I can't dance with someone who thinks I'd steal from her.
Then maybe we shouldn't dance together at all.
Fine by me.
But we're in a band! We have to dance together! I gave up genius school to perform with you two! Come back, please! No! Well, at least you agree on something.
omething done right, you do it yourself! Riggghttttt.
DJ Melly Starkhouse coming at you with the big beats!!! Okay, party peoples Here come the noises? Oh okay, how does that make you feel? Here we go, that's interesting.
It makes me wanna, dance.
Here we go.
Ouh.
Call 9-1-1, cause they should be at this party.
Rightttt? This can't be right! My announcement about doing a solo at Homecoming is only getting 50% positive feedback.
How many responses did you get? Well, two.
One's me.
The other's my little sister.
She's a bit grouchy.
Now's probably a good time for me to tell you I'm not allowed to DJ the dance.
You know because of the whole blowing up the gym thing.
But my solo?! I mean, sorry to hear.
Your solo will be great.
Just you make sure you perform with my track.
I'll make sure the new DJ does it, okay? Then Mr.
Stark will be so impressed, he'll beg me to do The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
At least I hope so.
Don't worry! We're a team and my superior brain capacity will figure this out.
You can count on me.
Okay.
Now please let me go.
This outfit isn't designed for hugging.
For the tenth time, I didn't steal your dress! And for the tenth time, I didn't steal the dress either.
"We have your dress, Too bad neither of you will get to wear it.
" Have fun at Homecoming girls! I hope I didn't cause you too much "Diss Dress" Diss Dress? Ugh Whatever.
Attention, MacKendrick Prep students and faculty because repairs to the gym have taken longer than expected, I regret to inform you that the Homecoming dance is cancelled.
