Chapter 2 - Deception

The day of the pep rally happens. Larry is about to wheel his tympani & vibes
over to the gym until...

MR. MAXEY: Sorry Larry. You're not allowed to attend this pep rally.
LARRY: Why?
MR. MAXEY: No pit players allowed.
LARRY: But why are the other 3 pit players attending?
MR. FRAWLEY: Because they all got passing grades. You're coming with me.
While everyone cheers on the Bisons, you'll be in my classroom
taking a makeup test you failed!

Mr. Frawley escorts Larry to his classroom.

At the gym, Principal Miller is near the boys locker room while Nick Carter's
waiting in the wings. Principal Miller hands Nick an honorary varsity jacket
to wear on the special surprise.

NICK CARTER: Pretty cool jacket! Man, are the fans going to go ballistic!
MILLER: I'm sure they will!

The students are in the bleachers cheering on the football team for a victory
that night while the marching band played on. Principal Miller goes over to
the mike & says...

MILLER: In honor of our undefeated season in the history of Grover Cleveland
High, we got some surprise entertainemnt for you. Get ready to scream
girls, here's that Backstreet Boy hottie, Nick Carter!

The girls started screaming as Nick made his entrance with bodyguards around
the audience. Nick grabs the mike & starts singing to taped music. During
the middle of the song, a band member shouts...

BAND MEMBER: That's Larry Hanson! The Nick Carter lookalike! He's a phony!

The students start to realise this & they start booing.

NICK: I don't know who this Larry clown is, but may I continue singing?

Mr. Maxey goes over to him saying...

MR. MAXEY: Why aren't you taking your history exam @ Mr. Frawley's?
NICK: I don't know what you're talking about!
MR. MAXEY: Miss Miller, I want you to suspend Larry from school & have him
banned from the prom!
MILLER: I'll do no such thing!
NICK: You guys insulted me! I'm blowing this surprise gig! Here's your
jacket back!

When Nick took off his jacket, girls started screaming!

CHEERLEADER: He really is Nick Carter!

Mr. Maxey realised that it really was Nick Carter. Why? Larry Hanson doesn't
have any tattoos on his shoulders!

NICK: After this gig, I want an explanation!

Nick resumed the concert singing for the audience. And on one number, he
grabbed his black hollowed bodied electric guitar & started singing & playing.

When the pep rally was over, Larry finished his history exam & handed it over
to Mr. Frawley. Just then, a girl enters the classroom.

GIRL: It was an awesome pep rally! I actually saw Nick Carter live @ Grover
Cleveland High!
MR. FRAWLEY: Now why did you have to mention that for?
LARRY: So, this was all a set-up! To keep me away from Nick Carter! That's
a dirty trick!

Larry leaves the classroom disgusted!

At the principal's office, Principal Miller explained to Nick Carter that
there's a student named Larry Hanson who looks just like him.

NICK: That explains everything. Is he a troublemaker?
MR. MAXEY: No, but he fantasises about jamming with you. Nick Carter's fans
are for girls!
NICK: Hey, I get boy fans too. Where's Larry?
MR. MAXEY: Probably in Mr. Frawley's class taking that phony history exam. We
just wanted to sweep him under the rug when you arrived.

Just then, Mr. Frawley enters.

MR. FRAWLEY: Bad news. A girl came in & squealed about Nick Carter being here.
Larry got ticked off, he stormed out of the classroom.
MILLER: You better straighten this out right now!
MR. FRAWLEY: Where could he be?
MR. MAXEY: I got an idea.
