Huh? Hey!
Priya!
Yo.
Abby!
Yeah! What's up, Mei?!
Ready to change the world?
So ready!
I was born to do this.
LET'S BURN THIS PLACE TO THE GROUND!
Don't worry. We'll get through this.
No one can see her like this. I never wanted this for her. Did you see how she was in the temple? Her eyes…
Please… just… go away.
No! Why? Why?
Mei, it's us. Open up.
Crud, no. Guys, what are you doing? Go away!
Are you okay? Tap if you can hear us.
One for yes, two for no!
We were so worried. We thought you died of embarrassment.
You need more pads? I brought extra.
Forget that. 4-Town's coming to Toronto!
Hey! It's okay, everybody be quiet! Everybody, it's just me! Shut up! It's okay, it's me! It's Mei! Calm down, all right? I'm gonna let go and you're gonna be chill. Got that?
[Her friends nod. Then Mei slowly lets them go.]
That presentation was bomb.com! I cited all my sources, I had sparklers... [throws a dodge ball and grunts] and she still said no!
Mine called it stripper music! What's wrong with that?! [catches a dodge ball with her teeth and growls]
Mine said yes, but I have to buy the ticket. Who the heck's got that kind of cash?
I know my mom's worried, but sometimes, she's just so... so...
Wacko?
You want your money? Then get your butt down here now!
Forget your money, and forget you!
Mei! Let's just go.
What about our deal?!
SHOVE YOUR DEAL!
Fine, get out of here! Go back to your psycho Mom and your creepy temple, you freak! [Panda Meilin growls furiously, having to have heard that, and jumps off the roof and attacks him] Oops!
Mei, no!
Take it back! Don't talk about my family like THAT!
I'm sorry. Just get off of me, please.
[Panda Meilin looks at everyone gasping fearfully at her with a horrified expression of what she has done; Later… Tyler's parents scold Ming while Meilin remorsefully watches, along with her friends] Tyler's Mom: [weeping] I cannot believe you would let your daughter do this! This is a civil and a society. And we see this!
Tyler's Dad: Do you understand what she did to my boy? We have invited people to have good fun.
I am so sorry. She's never done anything like this before. I don't know what came over her. [in unison] I'm sorry again.
Tyler's Dad: No! No! I don't want to hear your apologies, okay?
Tyler's Mom: [looks at Meilin as they go back inside the house] She is an animal!
Tyler's Dad: [to everybody] Alright, party's over! Everyone, go home! [Meilin braces herself as Ming walks over to her for chastising, but passes her instead]
What?
But we didn't.
No, we'd never.
What?
I knew you were trouble. Putting all these thoughts into Mei-Mei's head, parading her around. Now she's lying, sneaking out. She attacked a defenseless boy! You think this is a joke? Do you know how dangerous this is?
We didn't mean to, we just wanted to see 4-Town.
4-Town! You manipulated her for a bunch of tacky delinquents?!
No! She wanted to…
Don't you blame her. She is a good girl, and you've taken advantage of her.
Mei, tell her! [Meilin looks up at her mother and she looks down to her, then buries her face in her chest, refusing to tell since she's torn between two worlds]
What?
Dude.
Come on, Mei-Mei. [holds out her hand] Let's go.
Mei! You're here!
Mei! What are you doing here?
I couldn't do it. The panda's a part of me, and you guys are too.
Mei, you threw us under the bus.
I know and I'm sorry. I've been, like, obsessed with my mom's approval my whole life. I couldn't take losing it, but losing you guys feels even worse.
