CUT TO: Sangy, Misty and Sabrina are back to playing cards again. Moog staggers in, spots a BOOK on the table. It's decorated with sparkles, elbow macaroni and Mardi Gras beads, with the words 'Divine Secrets of the Undahpants Sisterhood' in macaroni on the cover. He blinks

MOOGLE
Woah. What's that doing here?

SANGY
More will be revealed, pal.

MISTY
Don't you dare tell her we have it.

SABRINA
(leans over)
They're not talking, Misty. That's why

we're all out here.

SANGY
Moog, kiddo, she doesn't know you're

here, and she doesn't know we have the book,

and I'm thinking that's the way it oughtta stay. But

there are some things in there that might… make a

small difference in the way you feel about Mrs. Jess
Brofloski.

MOOGLE
I don't care if she was abducted by leprechauns and

whacked over the head with their shalaylie sticks, okay?
I just wanna get out of here!

SANGY
You want out? That book, minus the chip on your

shoulder, is your ticket back to New York.

Moog huffs, walks over, takes Sabrina's drink and walks onto the porch

SABRINA
Thief.

Moog collapses in a lawn chair and sighs, staring out at the neighbourhood in Sangi's giant shirt. We fade into

(HI THIS IS WHERE YOU LEFT OFF KTHXBYE)

INT. JESS'S LIVING ROOM – FLASHBACK

little!Moog and Jess are sitting down in front of the TV, playing some kind of video game. Several other game cartridges lay scattered around them on the floor. Jess is frowning.

MOOG
Ha. Beat you again.

JESS
I – uh – yo – stop it. I'll ground you.

MOOG
No you won't.

JESS
Yes I will.

MOOG
You won't.

JESS
… maybe.

They direct their attention back to the game. We watch Jess die again.

JESS

… now you're just trying to hurt me.

Moog grins at her. We FADE BACK TO

Fully-grown Moog, still sitting on the porch, the same fond grin on his face.

END SCENE

EXT. GREENLEAF HOUSE – DAY

Jess drives up to the house and gets out. We cut to

INT. GREENLEAF HOUSE – DAY

Jess and Crunk sit around the table. Crunk clutches her bathrobe tight and makes various coughing, sneezing and sniffling, 'I've got a cold' noises.

JESS
You look a'ight, Frunk. For being deathly ill
I mean. You look like your old self again.

CRUNK
Don't be talking about old. You're the one with

the birthday around the corner.

JESS
Don't be talking about birthdays.

CRUNK

You gonna tell me what's wrong, or do I

have to use what precious few brain cells I

have left trying to figure it out?

JESS
There's nothing wrong.

(Crunk gives her a Look)

… really! … except…
(sighs)
Well, Moogle. I wasn't a horrible mother,

was I?

CRUNK

Is this about that Guitar World business?

JESS
How'd you know about that?

CRUNK
I read Guitar World! … I do! … okay, Meed does.

He told me. And let me tell you something, you just have

to let Moog feel the way he feels. There's nothing else to

be done for it.

Jess sighs.
