That's So Raven (2003) s02e19 Episode Script
The Lying Game
Ladies and gentlemen, as you know, this is Career Education Week.
These are the results of your aptitude tests.
They'll show you what careers you're best suited for.
"Policewoman"? "Furniture salesman"? "Teacher"? Oh, no.
Uh, Mr.
Grozowtski, this is ridiculous.
I couldn't even teach Chelsea how to whistle.
See? Nothing.
Well, I think these tests are very accurate.
Took one myself when I was your age.
And it said you should be a teacher? Swimsuit model.
Anyway, you'll notice attached to your results is an assignment card.
You'll have half a day off tomorrow to spend with someone who works in your career.
"Detective Ramirez.
" "Mrs.
Applebaum.
" That's Cory's teacher.
Oh, man! I spend enough time with him already.
"Big Al, the Sofa King"? Who am I gonna sell a sofa to? Yo, Rae? Did you just have a vision? Yeah.
And I think I got your first customers.
Yep, that's me.
A new sofa isn't just a piece of new furniture.
It's an extension of you.
So, when people sit on it, it's like they're sitting on you.
Look, Eddie, I'm sorry.
We want to support your future career, but we don't need a new sofa.
Whoa, whoa, before you say no, why don't you both just take a seat right here? Think about it.
Fine, Eddie, but we're not going to change our minds.
Oh, I'll take that.
Can you imagine that?! Maybe it is time that we get a new sofa.
Yeah.
Man! Come on, Mr.
B.
Let me help you out of here.
Come on, Mrs.
B.
Help me.
Well, look, don't you guys worry, 'cause I'm going to hook you right on up.
I was born to sell sofas.
how can I ruin your life? Honey? Your kids are home.
Why do they got to be my kids? That's enough! What is going on here? Mom, I should have never went to Cory's class.
I knew he was going to act like a little monster.
Me? You couldn't wait to get in there and tell us what to do, Bossy Boots.
Bratty Pants! Okay.
nasty.
I see Career Day was a big success.
She got me in trouble with the principal.
Oh, please! You got your own self in trouble.
Uh, how much trouble did you guys get into? Okay.
Just keep your mouths shut, and let me do all the talking.
Thanks, Detective Ramirez.
I had a great time.
Ten-four, over and out.
Whoo! Okay, you guys, the first thing I learned about police work is do not play with handcuffs, 'cause they are super hard to get out of.
Thanks for the tip, Chelsea.
But something went on in Cory's class today, and we're trying to get to the bottom of it.
Well this sounds like my first case.
Have a seat.
Have a seat.
Okay, listen up, you two.
We can do this the easy way or we can do this the hard way.
What's it gonna be? Can I just tell my story, please? Okay.
I think I broke her down.
So, anyway, here is exactly what happened.
I came into Cory's class with the best of intentions.
Class, we have a very special visitor today-- Raven! Here you go, Mrs.
Applebaum.
I am here to spread joy to all of the children.
Raven, I'll be retiring this year, and I was just showing the class this wonderful portrait the Parents Association presented to me.
It's an honor that I'll treasure for the rest of my life.
Oh! Mrs.
Applebaum! You know what? Why don't you take a break? Goodness knows, you deserve it! Larry, can I inspire your life in any way? No.
I'm just gazing upon your beauty.
Well, gaze on.
But not for too long.
We have to start our geography lesson.
It's snack time! Snack time? Well, um Nutrition is very important.
Cookies! Oh, Cory, Cory? Why don't you save some for the other children? Did you say "smash some"? No problem.
Oh, Cory! Cory, why? Why, Cory? So there I was making the best of a horrible situation that Cory created.
Jackpot! I found the candy for Applebaum's retirement party, baby! Let's get sugared-up and cause trouble! No Here, here! Yay! Get it, get it! Move up, move up! Cory? Cory, give me the candy! You heard her, people.
Give her the candy.
What? Stop, children, stop! Children? Children, stop.
Don't let one bad apple spoil all you good fruits.
I'm sorry, Raven.
How about we have some juice to make up? Goodness, Cory, I knew that there was good deep down inside of you.
Guess you didn't look deep enough, did you? Cory, listen.
I know that your bad behavior is a cry for help, so come here.
Let me hug you.
No! I want to be bad! No, Cory, come here Look at what you did! Cory, oh, sweetie! Do not run from love! And that's exactly what happened.
Cory, you better have a good explanation.
Okay.
The truth is, everything Raven said was a lie.
Cory, Cory, could you be more specific? Like, what happened? Okay, this is how it really went down.
It all started when sweet Mrs.
Applebaum was showing us her beautiful portrait.
Class, we have a very special visitor today-- Raven! How y'all doing? Don't worry, that's my lovable sister Raven.
Her bark's worse than her bite.
Raven, I'll be retiring this year, and I was just showing the class this wonderful portrait the Parents Association presented to me.
It's an honor that I'll treasure for the rest of my life.
Stop your blubbering, Applebaum.
You're a disgrace! Get out of here.
I ain't playing with you.
What are you staring at? The face of evil? It's time to start the lesson.
Excuse me, sister dearest, not to disrespect your authority, but it is snack time.
Snack time?! I'm sorry! It's my job-- I was only thinking of the other children.
They look so hungry.
Fine.
You might as well get some meat on your bones.
It'll be more of you to boss around.
Give me that! If you want a snack, line up.
This is all you're getting, so make it last.
Please I'm so weak, may I have some m-more? More?! Sister, please, he'll never make it through the winter.
Can I at least give him one marshmallow? Maybe just one.
But he has to catch it in his mouth.
I'm such a bossy boots.
Snack time is over! I'm melting! I'm melting! This is all your fault! Mrs.
Applebaum! Let me get out of here! Stay back.
Stay back, you evil spirit! Stay back! And that's exactly what happened.
I am so disappointed in you.
You happy? You see? You broke Mom's heart.
I am talking about both of you-- making up stories to get each other in trouble.
Mama, he does not need my help getting in trouble.
I don't need your help with anything, but that doesn't stop you from getting all up in my business.
Okay, let's end this.
That's what I'm saying, Dad, 'cause I got plans this weekend No, you don't.
I want both of you to go up to your rooms right now and stay there until you're ready to tell us what really happened! See what you did?! See what you did?! Well, well, seems like I've got enough to go on, sir.
What do you got? Maybe nothing.
Maybe everything.
Most likely nothing.
Hey, y'all, wait till you see how Big All the Sofa King and I hooked y'all right on up.
This way.
Pretty fly, huh? Where did you How did you No, don't thank me.
Thank Big Al the Sofa King.
Yeah, he said this stuff came straight from Italy.
Does it have a round-trip ticket? Whoa, you're not feeling this? I'm not feeling it, I'm not touching it, I don't even want to look at it.
Oh, well, guess this is a little too youthful.
Excuse me? Hey, y'all too old to be trying to keep up with all the latest trends and stuff.
My grandmother's the same way.
Your grandmother?! Let me tell you something.
We are just as young and hip and funky fresh as anybody else out there.
Great, Mr.
B, glad to hear you say that.
So will it be cash or charge? Cash.
Victor Charge.
Victor! What? We got to pay for it somehow! We're not buying it.
R- R-Right.
Just get us our furniture back.
Well, if you insist.
Make a couple phone calls.
Yeah, Big Al? No, Little Ed.
Yeah.
Well, they don't want it.
She wouldn't let him.
Well, apparently, the wife wears the pants in the family.
I'm just saying, that's all I'm saying.
You know That is not even a real phone.
It's got candy in it.
Get out of here! You broke my phone, brother.
You know, he might just have a future in this business.
Okay, you guys, I just had a big break in the case.
Something is different around here.
You know, Chelsea, nothing gets by you.
Yeah, I know.
It's my keen eye for detail that makes me so amazing at police work.
What can I say? Now, if you'll join me in the kitchen, I've got me a crime to solve.
All right, folks, I'm gonna need the suspects.
That'd be your children.
Um, Cory? Raven? You know she's not really a detective, right? Hi.
Okay, all right, we're gonna break this down.
Take a seat, take a seat, take seat, take a seat.
Now, I've uncovered a surprise witness for y'all.
Surprise witness, could you come on out here, please? Thank you.
Obviously, our witness would rather not be identified, so we're gonna respect his privacy.
Take a seat.
Right there.
Larry.
How'd you know it was me? Man, you been wearing that same sweatshirt for two weeks.
Hey, Larry, we just want to know the truth.
The only thing that Cory and Raven seem to agree upon is that Mrs.
Applebaum left the room in-in tears.
Well, I guess that's kind of true.
Uh-huh.
What really happened was It's an honor I will treasure for the rest of my life.
Oh, Mrs.
Applebaum, are you crying because you're leaving? Oh, no, it's this new mascara-- I think I'm allergic to it.
Raven, Cory, is that true? Okay, Larry, what happened next? Well, I was staring at Raven Because of my beauty? Not exactly.
You had some green stuff stuck in your teeth.
Yeah, you know what, I should not have had that spinach omelet for breakfast, no.
Okay, Larry, just focus-- what happened next? Well, it was snack time, and things turned ugly.
Raven, it's time for me to pass out the snacks.
Sounds more like time to take advantage of your sister.
I'm not taking advantage of you.
This really is my job.
Then it must be my job to tell you to sit back down.
It's snack time, and I'm giving out the cookies.
Snack time? Cory, the teacher said nothing about snacks.
Cory! Give me those cookies.
No! Give me the cookies! So you both broke them.
Everyone was hungry, so Cory went to the candy closet.
Cory, you better not open those.
Okay.
Here, Larry, open that.
Okay, so that one was my bad.
Cory, you are in big trouble now! Aah! My shirt! That's right-- a bowling trophy smashed the juice.
My shirt! Oh! Cory, this is all your fault.
What? I didn't do it.
Cory No, I didn't.
That wasn't a very good place for a hook.
My shirt! Cory And I think you know what happens next.
And that's what really happened.
It was all an accident.
Well, case closed.
Come on, Larry, I'm taking you downtown, son.
To the police station? No, silly, for an ice cream cone.
You've done good, kid.
What upsets me is that this whole thing could've been avoided.
But both of you expected the worst in each other, and that's exactly what you got.
Mom, come on, how was I supposed to know that out of all the kids in Cory's class, he was the one in charge of handing out the snacks? It was my job.
I was Student of the Week.
He got straight A's, and he had perfect behavior.
Cory? This Cory? You? See, I had no idea.
You know, you should read the refrigerator door more often.
See? You shouldn't have came in there all bossy.
I wasn't bossy.
I was nervous.
You were nervous? You're not afraid of anything.
You know, I was afraid I would mess up and embarrass myself.
I didn't know you worried about stuff like that.
You know, maybe the two of you learned something about each other that will bring you closer together.
Mm-hmm.
Especially when you two are doing extra chores to help pay for Mrs.
Applebaum's portrait.
You can start with the dusting.
Come on, little bro.
What in the? Whoa! I love it! I hate it! It's cool! It's ridiculous! You know, I think this is a real turning point for Cory and Raven.
She did it! He did it! So, how were your career experiences? I don't know, Mr.
G.
I didn't sell anything.
Yeah, teaching-- not my thing.
Well, I don't know about you guys, but I was born for police work.
Born.
Well, still, it's amazing I got even one right-- considering I lost the answer key to your tests and I made up the results.
Oh, man! All right, all right, all right, all right.
I found the key.
Here are the correct results.
Musician! Fashion designer! Environmental biologist?! Chels, come on, that's what you've always wanted to be.
Well, yeah, I know, but I don't know, Rae, I'm kind of really gonna miss the action, you know? Actually, Rae, do you mind standing up for a minute? What? Just a minute.
In the middle of the class? Quick second, yeah.
All right spread 'em! Spread 'em, spread 'em.
All right, you have the right to remain silent.
And you have the right to an attorney.
Chels? What? You do have the keys to those, right?
These are the results of your aptitude tests.
They'll show you what careers you're best suited for.
"Policewoman"? "Furniture salesman"? "Teacher"? Oh, no.
Uh, Mr.
Grozowtski, this is ridiculous.
