Speaker 3 Chapter One

Speaker 3 Welcome to Camp.

Speaker 4 Welcome to Camp Emerald Bay.

Speaker 5 Each year, venture scouts from around the country come to beautiful and serene Catalina Island to foster trust, loyalty, good citizenship, citizenship, and bravery,

Speaker 4 all while making great friends and lasting memories.

Speaker 4 Come on aboard.

Speaker 7 The last ferry to Catalina will be leaving in ten minutes.

Speaker 8 Love you, Mom.

Speaker 9 Love you too, honey.

Speaker 2 Have a good time at camp.

Speaker 7 Place your bag at the end of the dock. Be sure to take your carry-on with you.

Speaker 8 Nice suitcase.

Speaker 8 Was I not supposed to bring one?

Speaker 10 You gonna take that on the trail?

Speaker 11 Classic polywog.

Speaker 13 You!

Speaker 14 You've already checked in. Now get on the boat.

Speaker 15 Just ignore them.

Speaker 14 First time?

Speaker 16 Yeah.

Speaker 11 Oh, boy.

Speaker 14 This is gonna be a big summer for you.

Speaker 14 I remember my first time at Emerald Bay. The camp is magical.

Speaker 14 On you go.

Speaker 8 I can't believe mom is making me do this.

Speaker 7 All aboard for Catalina!

Speaker 12 How Barracudas this year?

Speaker 10 I'm hoping for troop Himalayan jumping spider.

Speaker 15 Dude, that's not a troop name.

Speaker 18 It should be.

Speaker 10 Maybe the bisons.

Speaker 19 I hear there's some still on the island.

Speaker 20 Yeah, left over from some movie or something.

Speaker 12 What do you want?

Speaker 10 You're not sitting here, kid.

Speaker 8 Uh, no, I.

Speaker 8 I'm gonna get a snack.

Speaker 2 Leave the nerd alone, Chase.

Speaker 12 Whatever.

Speaker 13 Here's your change.

Speaker 6 Condiment's just around the corner.

Speaker 14 You again, uh, Franklin, right?

Speaker 8 I was just looking for uh.

Speaker 14 For any last-minute supplies?

Speaker 14 some of this you won't find at camp.

Speaker 11 Trust me.

Speaker 8 How much is this?

Speaker 14 Notepads, four dollars.

Speaker 18 I'll take it.

Speaker 8 My mom's making me write every day.

Speaker 8 Yeah, moms do that.

Speaker 8 Is this where we're going?

Speaker 14 Oh, yeah, that's Camp Emerald Bay on the back there.

Speaker 14 You're all set.

Speaker 14 Next,

Speaker 8 this seat taken?

Speaker 22 It's all yours, kid.

Speaker 8 Okay.

Speaker 8 Dear mom, I'm riding you like I promised.

Speaker 8 Well, camp is already terrible like I told you it'd be. And I'm not even there yet.
I'm the oldest polywad here. It's so embarrassing.
Why couldn't we earn any of these badges at home?

Speaker 8 Everyone my age is a higher rank.

Speaker 8 Why do I have to do this right now and here? Oh, oh, sorry.

Speaker 23 I'm fine, I'm fine.

Speaker 8 I'm so sorry.

Speaker 24 I didn't mean to.

Speaker 25 Here, let me help.

Speaker 23 Ah, this is nothing. This happens more than you think.
My aunt says I should look down more at my feet than off into the clouds.

Speaker 8 Oh, that's the one thing I do well.

Speaker 23 If you see a red purse, it has little drama masks on it.

Speaker 8 Jude, how much stuff did you bring?

Speaker 10 You should see my stowaway bag.

Speaker 23 No, I can't buy anything.

Speaker 8 What?

Speaker 23 Just something to eat from the counter.

Speaker 13 Oh, um,

Speaker 8 I have money.

Speaker 16 Really?

Speaker 23 I wouldn't want to impose.

Speaker 14 Sounds like the gentleman wants to buy a gift for the lady.

Speaker 26 What would she like?

Speaker 6 Oh, yeah, uh, I was.

Speaker 14 Don't worry, mate. Got you covered.

Speaker 23 Well, okay, if you're sure. Just something small.

Speaker 13 Um, how about a bag of Starbursts?

Speaker 14 Sure, a dollar fifty-nine.

Speaker 25 What are those?

Speaker 8 The candy?

Speaker 23 My aunt doesn't let me have sweets. Does this count?

Speaker 8 You're joking, right?

Speaker 8 Well, your aunt isn't here. We can eat whatever we want.

Speaker 14 You know they don't sell candy at camp, right?

Speaker 8 Seriously? Oh, we gotta stock up now.

Speaker 23 Oh my.

Speaker 21 You sure are gonna be popular.

Speaker 23 This way, no one says up here.

Speaker 8 I'm coming, I'm coming.

Speaker 23 Did you really have to buy that match?

Speaker 8 Two weeks! I have to make it last 14 days!

Speaker 23 I think you have a problem.

Speaker 8 You're a problem now, too.

Speaker 23 I'm afraid.

Speaker 8 You should be.

Speaker 23 Okay, here goes.

Speaker 8 Pink's the best.

Speaker 23 Oh my god.

Speaker 8 So good!

Speaker 23 My aunt would die if she knew what I was eating.

Speaker 8 Where are you from?

Speaker 8 Is that rude?

Speaker 23 No, of course not.

Speaker 24 I get asked all the time. Sorry.

Speaker 23 But now I live with my Aunt Beverly in Los Angeles, so my accent's changed a bit.

Speaker 18 Oh, it's your first time at camp, too?

Speaker 24 No, third summer.

Speaker 23 I'm a chameleon now. I just blend right in.

Speaker 8 The polymarts really stand out.

Speaker 23 Oh dear.

Speaker 24 Yes, you do.

Speaker 23 Uh but don't worry. Everyone feels the same way at first and I promise you'll like it.

Speaker 8 I didn't know girls. I didn't know girls went to this camp.

Speaker 23 Well we have our own campsite, one cove over,

Speaker 24 but we're still all adventure scouts.

Speaker 13 Right.

Speaker 8 Is that all you have?

Speaker 23 Candy and a notepad?

Speaker 8 Uh what else do you mean?

Speaker 23 Who are you writing to? Your mum.

Speaker 8 Yeah, I I said I'd write every day.

Speaker 23 You gonna write about me?

Speaker 13 You?

Speaker 11 No, I mean...

Speaker 13 I don't even know your name.

Speaker 16 Ruby.

Speaker 23 Like my red hair. Just a coincidence.
I was born blonde. My aunt may be fussy about what I eat, but not much else.

Speaker 8 Oh, okay.

Speaker 23 And?

Speaker 8 And what?

Speaker 23 And what is your name?

Speaker 13 Oh, uh, right.

Speaker 8 Um, Franklin.

Speaker 23 You sure?

Speaker 23 Franklin L. Devon.

Speaker 8 Wait, what?

Speaker 23 It's on your back, silly. I read it earlier.
Wanted to ask anyway. What's the L stand for? Oh,

Speaker 8 just some dumb family name.

Speaker 23 Don't ask. No, I really want to know.

Speaker 8 You'll have to torture it out of me.

Speaker 2 Challenge accepted.

Speaker 23 I'll start with taking your sweets. One piece at a time.
It's not gonna last you two weeks now.

Speaker 13 Ruby right.

Speaker 7 Please report to the first deck. Ruby right.

Speaker 13 Oh my.

Speaker 23 I hope everything's okay.

Speaker 24 Be right back.

Speaker 8 Okay.

Speaker 13 Mom,

Speaker 8 I'm in love.

Speaker 8 I met a friend.

Speaker 24 She's nice.

Speaker 8 Good hair.

Speaker 8 Okay.

Speaker 8 Camp may not be

Speaker 24 so terrible after all.

Speaker 24 Ladies and gentlemen, we've arrived at our first destination. Two harbors on beautiful Catalina Island.
Please stand clear of the exits until we have completely docked.

Speaker 24 If you're heading to Avalon, stay on board and we'll continue on to our next stop.

Speaker 8 Catalina is a lot bigger than I thought.

Speaker 8 It looks so small from the shore.

Speaker 8 We still have to take a bus from here. I'm not sure how long that'll be.

Speaker 8 Huh?

Speaker 2 Look what they found.

Speaker 8 My purse. Purse? Oh, your wallet.

Speaker 23 Now I can return the favor for all those treats.

Speaker 8 Maybe on the way home. It's a date.

Speaker 18 Wait. What'd she say?

Speaker 17 We have paddling the boat tours, fishing tours, AED tours, wine tours, and more.

Speaker 8 There's so much going on in two harbors. It's like a whole little city.
They say Avalon down the coast is a lot bigger. I wonder what it is.

Speaker 23 Franklin, are you going to write in that the whole time?

Speaker 2 Or are you going to enjoy yourself?

Speaker 27 Ruby! Comed?

Speaker 23 Please tell me I'm in your cabin again.

Speaker 24 I may work something out.

Speaker 8 Yes!

Speaker 25 Who's your boyfriend?

Speaker 23 What? Very funny. This is Franklin.
Met him on the ferry. It's his first time.

Speaker 10 Gotcha.

Speaker 24 Come on, Francis.

Speaker 8 It's uh, Franklin. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 24 I'll show you to your bus. Ruby, you're on this one.

Speaker 23 Bye. See you around.

Speaker 8 Later.

Speaker 8 Gator.

Speaker 24 Come on, Sinatra. Your bus is over here.

Speaker 28 Hey, Carmen.

Speaker 12 Lucas.

Speaker 28 A little birdie told me you aren't going out with anyone.

Speaker 15 So?

Speaker 28 Just so you know, I'm still available.

Speaker 24 Big surprise.

Speaker 28 Well, if you're ever looking for a good time, Lucas is waiting for you.

Speaker 24 Ugh, gross. Play off the manga.
It's messing with your brain.

Speaker 10 Not a chance.

Speaker 28 See you later, Carmen.

Speaker 24 Okay, Captain of Camp.

Speaker 29 Oh, Carmen, Carmen. Looking grumpy as usual, I see.

Speaker 24 Oh, Blaine. Acting like a clown as usual, I see.

Speaker 14 They seem to like it.

Speaker 24 Whatever. You'd better put that flag back up on the bus before Gus kills you.

Speaker 29 Gus won't care. He and I are tight.

Speaker 24 Really? Because he looks like he's about to tear your new one.

Speaker 25 Who's Gus? Blaine.

Speaker 12 That's Gus.

Speaker 6 Get your skinny ass off my bus. I just had it cleaned.

Speaker 29 Ah, she never looked better.

Speaker 21 Boy, you better be talking about the bus.

Speaker 21 Nice to see you again, Carmen. Be on the bus in two minutes, Blaine, where I'm leaving you here.

Speaker 6 Okay, okay.

Speaker 29 Who's your friend, Carmen?

Speaker 24 He's just some new kid.

Speaker 8 I'm Franklin.

Speaker 24 Make sure he knows where to go.

Speaker 29 Can't tell me what to do.

Speaker 24 Actually, I'm a troop leader this year, so yeah, I can.

Speaker 24 See you around, Captain.

Speaker 29 Hey, Carmen.

Speaker 29 I want to meet at that spot, you know. I want my doctor's cove.
For old time's sake.

Speaker 29 No.

Speaker 11 Ah, nothing like a powerful woman.

Speaker 29 You know what I mean, Frankie?

Speaker 13 Um.

Speaker 29 Come on. I'll introduce you to the gang.

Speaker 8 So, you and Carmen.

Speaker 11 Let's just say

Speaker 29 we have some history.

Speaker 29 Everybody, this is Frankie. He's new.

Speaker 6 Don't freak him out.

Speaker 29 Especially you, Lucas.

Speaker 22 Keep that weird shit to yourself.

Speaker 28 You unsophisticated, you just don't get it.

Speaker 29 These are the twins, Hunter and Harrison. Hi! Don't worry about telling them apart.
No one can.

Speaker 2 Everyone can.

Speaker 19 Except you, Blaine.

Speaker 29 Yeah.

Speaker 16 Right.

Speaker 14 And this is Bobby.

Speaker 8 Most of the guys seem pretty nice and cool, but it was so many names and faces. I'd forgotten them almost as soon as I heard them.

Speaker 16 Okay, okay.

Speaker 29 And here's Connor, Owen, and...

Speaker 16 What's your name again?

Speaker 19 John. Maybe we'll be in the same cabin.
That'll be fun.

Speaker 12 Of course.

Speaker 29 My boy Johnny.

Speaker 10 Hey, who made it out of this trailer park to get to camp.

Speaker 29 What did you say?

Speaker 13 Oh no.

Speaker 8 He's on this bus.

Speaker 10 You know they don't take food stamps at camp, right?

Speaker 12 Nice one.

Speaker 10 Oh, look, and he's babysitting the widow baby Joe.

Speaker 8 Hold my pet, Frankie. Oh, uh, are you okay?

Speaker 11 Oh, I'm fine.

Speaker 29 This douche won't be.

Speaker 10 What did you call me?

Speaker 13 Muffin.

Speaker 10 Douche. I'm gonna mess you up.

Speaker 16 Bring it, big head. Hey!

Speaker 12 Sit your asses down!

Speaker 10 This isn't over.

Speaker 14 Obviously.

Speaker 10 What a trick.

Speaker 16 Chase?

Speaker 13 Yep.

Speaker 29 Biggest idiot at camp. His older brother Pierce is the second biggest.

Speaker 8 Really? Worse than him? He's had it out for me since I got on the ferry.

Speaker 29 Don't worry about them.

Speaker 29 So what have you got?

Speaker 13 What?

Speaker 14 You know, contraband, booty, swag.

Speaker 29 The camp system runs on a legal currency.

Speaker 8 The system?

Speaker 29 Yep, and I'm sort of the best at working it, so what you bring?

Speaker 8 Uh I have $3.48

Speaker 8 left.

Speaker 21 That's not going to help.

Speaker 6 But

Speaker 21 that will.

Speaker 25 The spy bought walkie talkies that my mom gave me?

Speaker 29 Nah. Although those might come in handy for some late-night shenanigans.

Speaker 5 That.

Speaker 24 The candy?

Speaker 3 Oh, yes, indeed.

Speaker 29 Better than money.

Speaker 12 Keep it secret.

Speaker 14 Keep it safe.

Speaker 8 I can tie this extra tight.

Speaker 20 Hey, that's a good clove hitch.

Speaker 29 Sure, you've never been a camp before?

Speaker 8 This is at least a thing I can do. There's only one bag I can get this summer.

Speaker 29 Nah, you'll get more. I'll see to that.

Speaker 29 Just stick with me, Frankie.

Speaker 11 Got a feeling it's going to be one heck of a summer.

Speaker 11 go ahead and find those signs.

Speaker 11 And the bad thing was.

Speaker 29 Nah, the girls' camp isn't here, but it's not hard to get to.

Speaker 8 You've been there?

Speaker 16 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 8 Welcome, Scout.

Speaker 19 Watch it!

Speaker 8 Stepped on my foot!

Speaker 11 Oh, sorry.

Speaker 3 Did I scare you?

Speaker 6 You think?

Speaker 29 Hey, Joe.

Speaker 11 Blaine.

Speaker 29 That 80s vulture suit never gets uncreepy. Frankie, meet Joe, our most fearless, enthusiastic scout leader.

Speaker 8 It's Frank Glynn.

Speaker 14 Yes, you're a polywog. Franklin, you are just going to have the most amazing time here at Camp Emerald Bay.

Speaker 21 That's Pierce.

Speaker 29 Remember Chase's idiot brother that I was telling you about?

Speaker 8 Um...

Speaker 3 Get your head back on.

Speaker 15 There are scouts here.

Speaker 14 Exactly, Pierce. So why not watch the language?

Speaker 22 I'm sorry, Vern. Were you the first one to earn the Dragon Scout's talent last summer?

Speaker 13 No.

Speaker 22 No.

Speaker 22 Golden Boy, you finally lost this time. So, does that make you the Venture Master this year?

Speaker 14 No. That's right.

Speaker 22 I'm in charge now, and you don't get to tell me what to do anymore. You're Vern the Vulture, and I'm Venture Master, so I'll be using whatever fucking language I like.
Pierce!

Speaker 6 Watch your tongue!

Speaker 22 Just just put your head back on, bird. Remember, I'm in charge until Director Kim gets back from Avalon.
You all have to listen to me.

Speaker 22 Now, I've got more important things to do.

Speaker 22 Valerie! Hey!

Speaker 22 Where'd you go?

Speaker 22 So, what are we gonna do now?

Speaker 6 Well, scouts, onward towards friendship, towards adventure, but mainly towards the main hall.

Speaker 14 That way,

Speaker 8 there's a lot here.

Speaker 29 You okay, dude?

Speaker 13 Yeah, I'm cool.

Speaker 10 Yeah,

Speaker 8 real cool.

Speaker 19 Franklin Hat.

Speaker 19 Found by Lucas.

Speaker 28 Dang, him again.

Speaker 4 Sax here.

Speaker 26 Hey, Lucas, save us a seat.

Speaker 29 I'm gonna go retrieve the brainiac.

Speaker 13 Sure.

Speaker 13 Harrison, hunter, way up.

Speaker 8 Uh,

Speaker 6 Frankie, stick with me.

Speaker 8 Oh, great.

Speaker 29 Yeah, he's super smart, like. The smartest person you'll ever meet.
And he's super rich.

Speaker 16 He gave you that?

Speaker 29 We spent a couple summers in the same cabin.

Speaker 3 We're like two amigos.

Speaker 29 Last year he invited me to stay at his parents' summer home in Avalon after camp ended.

Speaker 20 They are loaded.

Speaker 6 Bye, Mom.

Speaker 30 Bye, Dad.

Speaker 17 Bye, bye, baby.

Speaker 13 Spilled

Speaker 31 Harve, do we bring the bottle of latour?

Speaker 6 Jesus, Mindy.

Speaker 5 Come on, Captain.

Speaker 20 This is back to two harbors.

Speaker 32 Right away, sir. Zaki! Zaki! Don't forget your extra soap screen.

Speaker 30 It's in my pack, Pilar. Thank you.

Speaker 33 And you have everything you need.

Speaker 3 Your uniform, your boops.

Speaker 30 Yes, Pilar, I have everything.

Speaker 8 Adios, Miho.

Speaker 9 I'll miss you, Michikito.

Speaker 3 Adios Yaya.

Speaker 29 Try parachuting in next time. A mega yacht wasn't flashy enough.

Speaker 30 Great idea. Or maybe a jetpack.

Speaker 29 That would actually be awesome.

Speaker 30 Who's this?

Speaker 16 Oh, yeah, Zach.

Speaker 29 Meet Frankie.

Speaker 8 Hi.

Speaker 29 New kid.

Speaker 16 Tons of candy.

Speaker 30 Ah, I see why Blaine likes you.

Speaker 29 That, and he's cool. And Carmen seems to like him.

Speaker 30 Carmen again?

Speaker 6 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 29 And she's cuter than ever.

Speaker 30 Statistically speaking, your chances with her this summer are slim to none.

Speaker 3 Good thing I don't know nothing about statistics.

Speaker 4 Venture camp is a special place where scout seeds are planted, sown, and grown into lifelong friendships.

Speaker 8 How old is this video?

Speaker 8 They play it every year.

Speaker 11 When?

Speaker 9 I still can't believe they made Pierce the Venture Master, not Joe.

Speaker 13 What a burn.

Speaker 16 You only lost by one event.

Speaker 30 Joe's like Mr.

Speaker 29 Summer, and Pierce is like Mr.

Speaker 14 Bummer.

Speaker 5 When you're here, you're not just scouts or even friends. You are family.

Speaker 5 And now your beloved Venture Master will valiantly lead you all into a summer of fantastic adventure.

Speaker 6 Scouts, Venture Ho!

Speaker 16 Woo! Go burn!

Speaker 33 Yeah, Joe!

Speaker 15 Yeah!

Speaker 17 Yeah!

Speaker 15 Venture ho!

Speaker 15 Anyway, my new assistant, Valerie, will lead troop selection this year.

Speaker 13 What?

Speaker 4 The lifeguard?

Speaker 14 Pierce, I already assigned those.

Speaker 22 She's not the lifeguard anymore. I promoted her.
And I told her she could do it.

Speaker 11 Seriously?

Speaker 14 I spent a whole week on this.

Speaker 22 Uh, uh, uh, get your head on.

Speaker 22 And yeah, that's a shame.

Speaker 21 Go ahead, babe.

Speaker 21 Okay,

Speaker 19 in the spirit of harmony and self-expression, you guys can all pick your own troops this year.

Speaker 17 This is absurd.

Speaker 9 Well, that's different.

Speaker 12 Who cares?

Speaker 16 We gotta pick our own troops.

Speaker 11 This is awesome. Woo!

Speaker 13 Go, Valerie.

Speaker 25 So we can all be together?

Speaker 29 Yeah, well, except for Lucas.

Speaker 13 What?

Speaker 19 Come on, Blaine.

Speaker 24 Don't be like that.

Speaker 2 I thought we were Becky.

Speaker 8 He's probably just messing with you.

Speaker 21 Nope.

Speaker 30 Yeah, sorry.

Speaker 8 This is so not cool.

Speaker 29 Don't worry. He has his anime friends to keep him company.

Speaker 19 Good one.

Speaker 16 But we're all in, right?

Speaker 29 Scout rule number eight: always stick with your troop.

Speaker 19 Boys, don't forget to pick your troop name from the big list over there.

Speaker 8 First, come, first, first. Dude, let's go.

Speaker 29 Oh, Oh, but we're on jack rabbits! No, hunter.

Speaker 11 Warthogs! Can we get it? Here's a- no.

Speaker 29 Okay, the twins aren't choosing. Um, how about scorpions?

Speaker 19 I like it! Me too!

Speaker 27 Yeah!

Speaker 8 Eh, whatever.

Speaker 8 Ugh!

Speaker 2 It's like a spider, but way cooler.

Speaker 30 Actually, scorpions are arthropods.

Speaker 29 Scorpions! And I lack the chant.

Speaker 6 You guys ready?

Speaker 17 Scorpions! Scorpions! Sing!

Speaker 14 Excellent choice, guys. Here's the flag.
Don't let it out of your sight.

Speaker 6 I'll take that.

Speaker 14 Hang tight for a minute, boys. I'll find out your cabin assignments.

Speaker 8 Mom, we're the scorpions. A real troop with a cool name.
A tier. A flag and everything.

Speaker 8 And I'm pretty sure I made two real friends.

Speaker 14 Okay.

Speaker 14 Since it seems I have to reassign all the troop cabins, we are going to start activity time early.

Speaker 30 Science Lab, please be science lab.

Speaker 22 Please be the lawyer.

Speaker 8 What's that?

Speaker 29 Live ammo range, rifle reandery.

Speaker 6 A hike?

Speaker 8 Crap. Fun.

Speaker 8 Wait, what's wrong with the hike?

Speaker 30 Boring. Exhausting.

Speaker 14 Franklin's got the right idea. Boys, go find Chase.
He'll be your troop leader. And then everybody meet by the totem pole.

Speaker 11 What?

Speaker 3 Come on, Joe.

Speaker 29 Anyone but Chase.

Speaker 14 Sorry, boys. Pierce assigned the leaders.

Speaker 30 He's an imbecile like his brother.

Speaker 29 And a fat head is sadistic nightmare.

Speaker 8 Do you mean the jerk from the bus?

Speaker 14 Boys, boys, that is not scoutly behavior. And speaking of the devil, here he is, your illustrious troop leader.

Speaker 14 They're all yours, Chase.

Speaker 10 This will be fun.

Speaker 16 On it, boys.

Speaker 8 I don't know.

Speaker 16 It sounded serious. Emergency services is on the phone now.

Speaker 13 Huh?

Speaker 14 Um, I'm gonna go check on something. Here, you can be in charge of the trail maps, Franklin.
Stick to the paths. Have fun, boys.

Speaker 9 Did Jesus just hear all that?

Speaker 12 I'll take that flag.

Speaker 11 Moo.

Speaker 9 Oh boy.

Speaker 17 I swear I packed this big punch.

Speaker 17 I'm dang it.

Speaker 17 Oh, that's not a bad thing. That's what I had done, too.

Speaker 27 Oh, my baby.

Speaker 13 Alright.

Speaker 11 Scout rule number one.

Speaker 10 Honesty and honor above all. Scout rule number two.

Speaker 3 Safety fur.

Speaker 3 These are all useless.

Speaker 10 Chase rule number one. Listen to every word I say, and if you don't, I will be your worst nightmare.

Speaker 10 Check your crap. You'll learn all the other rules on the hike.

Speaker 3 Let's go.

Speaker 8 Does anyone have any extra sunscreen?

Speaker 30 Actually, uh, I do.

Speaker 8 Night sack.

Speaker 8 Whoa!

Speaker 8 Wait, you brought fireworks?

Speaker 13 Shit. Told ya.

Speaker 29 I'm the king of contrabran.

Speaker 30 You know, fireworks cause an average of 18,000 fires each year? And Catalina is prone to fires.

Speaker 29 Don't worry, we'll shoot him out over the water.

Speaker 10 I said get a move on.

Speaker 12 Nerd!

Speaker 3 Nice one.

Speaker 8 Watch where you're going. Make me.

Speaker 10 This is my group, and I can do whatever I want.

Speaker 30 This is a gross abuse of power.

Speaker 29 This is bullshit, and we won't stand for it.

Speaker 17 Yeah!

Speaker 10 Better watch what you say. Remember, Pierce is in charge this year.

Speaker 29 I don't care if your brother is venture master. He doesn't deserve it.

Speaker 12 Pierce should talk.

Speaker 10 You guys know Blaine is this year's charity case, right? You gave him the poor kid scholarship.

Speaker 10 You might cut guys, Scott!

Speaker 32 Come on, we're gonna get in trouble!

Speaker 8 I don't really know how it happened. It was all so fast, but

Speaker 8 don't freak out along.

Speaker 18 I kinda

Speaker 8 got him in my first fight.

Speaker 27 Hey, get off of him!

Speaker 12 Looking to join the fight, noob.

Speaker 13 Well, get him there!

Speaker 3 Don't push him!

Speaker 8 And

Speaker 8 drop my first black eye.

Speaker 6 What happened?

Speaker 16 Chase, what the heck, man?

Speaker 30 What is wrong with you, Chase?

Speaker 3 Screw this shit.

Speaker 10 You three go see my brother in the main office.

Speaker 26 You're out of my troop.

Speaker 3 You can't be serious.

Speaker 30 You started it.

Speaker 13 Yeah.

Speaker 30 Actually, I would very much like to go to the office and see the director right now to discuss your egregious lack of leadership skills.

Speaker 29 Shut up!

Speaker 14 Hey, Valerie!

Speaker 24 Yeah, what's up?

Speaker 10 Take these jerks to see my brother. They're out of my troop.

Speaker 3 Kick him out of camp if you want.

Speaker 14 You can't do that.

Speaker 30 And what they do?

Speaker 12 Fighting.

Speaker 8 Or like defending.

Speaker 16 Whatever.

Speaker 24 Come on, boys.

Speaker 26 You haven't seen the last of us.

Speaker 10 Whatever, nerds.

Speaker 33 What are we supposed to do now?

Speaker 10 Told you, we're going on a hike.

Speaker 25 But that new kid has the trail maps.

Speaker 10 They don't need the stupid trail maps.

Speaker 3 I know the way.

Speaker 32 Follow me and try to keep up, losers.

Speaker 24 What are we gonna do?

Speaker 8 I wanna go on a hike.

Speaker 3 We're alive. We'll be right back after a quick word from our sponsor.

Speaker 35 Did you see the game last night? Of course you did, because you used Instacart to do your grocery restock. Plus, you got snacks for the game, all without missing a single play.

Speaker 35 And that's on multitasking. So we're not saying that Instacart is a hack for game day, but it might be the ultimate play this football season.

Speaker 3 And now, back to the show.

Speaker 3 This way, boys, we're almost there.

Speaker 16 So, what are we gonna do?

Speaker 29 Don't worry. We'll get him back for this.

Speaker 8 How?

Speaker 29 I'll come up with something. Thanks for jumping in back there anyway.

Speaker 30 Yeah, that was that was pretty cool.

Speaker 8 Don't look.

Speaker 8 Don't mention it.

Speaker 29 Does it hurt?

Speaker 8 Not too much.

Speaker 29 Really? Cause it looks like it hurts.

Speaker 8 Well,

Speaker 29 just think of it as a rite of passage.

Speaker 8 Into what?

Speaker 3 Our gang.

Speaker 8 Yeah, welcome.

Speaker 14 What are you doing? We need to get everyone ready for evacuation.

Speaker 22 I don't want to hear it, Joe. This is just a drill.

Speaker 14 Pierce, I'm telling you, it's not just a drill. Gus is bringing the bus back right now.

Speaker 22 This safety job has gone to your head. Do I need to remind you who's in charge?

Speaker 14 Something's going on in Avalon.

Speaker 22 That's like 30 miles away from here on the other end of the island. Even if it is, we're fine.

Speaker 14 My girlfriend Zoe lives there. She always answers her phone, and I can't get in touch with her.
This is real.

Speaker 22 Well, you know, your girlfriend probably just doesn't want to talk to you.

Speaker 24 He has a girlfriend?

Speaker 12 Good one, Val. This isn't a joke.

Speaker 26 They're in danger.

Speaker 14 Pierce, you need to get everyone ready.

Speaker 26 Wait, boys?

Speaker 14 You're not on the hike?

Speaker 19 Chase punched me.

Speaker 22 Chase is lacking.

Speaker 14 I started it. Okay, Valerie, what is going on here?

Speaker 24 Uh, they were fighting or something.

Speaker 24 Damn it.

Speaker 14 It hasn't even been three hours and this camp is falling apart.

Speaker 14 I'm gonna go find the other scorpions and round up all the rest of the campers. Pierce, I know we don't always get along, but please do not ignore this.

Speaker 14 Get the kids on the buses and evacuate the camp.

Speaker 9 Evacuate?

Speaker 8 We have to leave.

Speaker 11 We just got here.

Speaker 14 I need to run and get them back from the trails. Boys, stay with Pierce.

Speaker 14 I just hope Zoe's okay.

Speaker 14 Hey, you forgot your head!

Speaker 22 What am I supposed to do with you three?

Speaker 30 I would like to formally file a complaint.

Speaker 22 Uh, uh-huh, like that's gonna happen. We have more important things to do than babysit a bunch of polywogs.

Speaker 12 Babysit!

Speaker 22 Whatever. Just sit in the director's office and think about what you've done, okay? I can't deal with this right now.

Speaker 30 What we've done? Seriously?

Speaker 18 Should we be evacuating Joe said?

Speaker 24 Yeah, like maybe the kid's right. Joe seemed really worried.

Speaker 22 We are not listening to Joe. He is not Venture Master anymore.
I am.

Speaker 22 I said it's just a drill, so that's what it is. We're not gonna cause a panic.
Now, you boys, get in there and stay.

Speaker 30 This is ridiculous. No one ever listens to us.

Speaker 17 Yeah, no kidding.

Speaker 8 I

Speaker 25 just wanted to help.

Speaker 29 Well, this is just an awesome start start to camp

Speaker 29 never been in trouble before another right of passage my boy.

Speaker 16 Fear not.

Speaker 29 We'll get out of this.

Speaker 8 Uh

Speaker 8 should you be going through that stuff?

Speaker 8 I mean, isn't that the camp director's desk?

Speaker 29 It's called making the best out of a bad situation.

Speaker 20 Let's see what we have here.

Speaker 8 Hmm.

Speaker 29 Might come in handy.

Speaker 8 What are you doing, Zach?

Speaker 30 Got something. Emergency broadcast assistant.

Speaker 7 A full island

Speaker 33 Whoa, we should be evacuating.

Speaker 7 Please safely make your way to the nearest departure site.

Speaker 29 What's going on?

Speaker 5 The current status of the situation is this is not a drill.

Speaker 7 Enact all sanctioned emergency protocols calmly and safely.

Speaker 5 Proceed to your nearest evacuation point to board.

Speaker 17 Forget that.

Speaker 17 Run.

Speaker 17 Run.

Speaker 8 Unknown. Unknown? Seriously?

Speaker 36 Thank you for utilizing the Catalina Island Emergency Broadcast System.

Speaker 7 This message, repeat.

Speaker 9 What the hell, Pierce?

Speaker 29 That a-horse. We cannot be silenced.
The people need to know.

Speaker 30 Wait, what if that's fake?

Speaker 30 Like a prank? Sounds like something you might tribal?

Speaker 29 Even I'm not that good.

Speaker 30 I'll keep searching for other frequencies, but someone else would be talking about this.

Speaker 29 Is this the Cat PA?

Speaker 2 Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 29 What was Pierce thinking when he left us in here with all this equipment?

Speaker 30 That we wouldn't touch it.

Speaker 29 Just goes to show what he doesn't know.

Speaker 29 How do I get this microphone on? Anyone there? Joe?

Speaker 30 Here? Hello? This is Zach. Zach?

Speaker 7 Who the hell are you? And why wasn't anyone answering? I'm gonna be there in like three minutes. Then we gotta go.
