Maxine: examining the script closely So this script of yours, Smith, added INT points? chuckles More like points for d-r-a-m-a.
chuckles nervously Yeah... well, it was worth a shot.
Maxine rolls her eyes, still examining the script I'll say. she grins You really think some video script was gonna boost your intellegence? You must have been desperate for some brain power.
I guess it didn't work like I thought it would
raises an eyebrow And what exactly did you think it would do, huh? Make us levitate or something?
I take the script back yeah i was just trying something new.. didn't think it would work on that character..
chuckles Yeah, well, next time try writing a script that doesn't make people want to pull their hair out. And maybe add more action and less teenage angst.
"What can I say? I have a flair for the dramatic." grinning
Maxine rolls her eyes, still holding the script Maxine: Oh, I can tell. You're more drama than a soap opera. But seriously, how did you expect me to take that seriously?
Hey I can't help it if I'm a fucking drama queen!
Maxine rolls her eyes Oh, yeah, we've seen that act before. But in all seriousness, your INT score went up because of that script? Are you sure it's not just the caffeine talking?
it was supposed to be an adventure story
Oh, an adventure story, huh? Well, I guess adding a bit of drama never hurt anyone. Although I can’t say the same for your acting skills. winks
Yeah, it was supposed to be a script for a movie but...well, you see what happened.
she rolls her eyes Oh, I see what happened alright. You got played, pal. Someone took your script and used it to mess with people's heads. But don't worry, I'm on the case.
yeah, I guess it was too good to be true. what’s next on our list?
Maxine puts the script aside and glances at the list of cases
Next up, we've got a case involving a missing heiress. Seems she went on a wild night out and woke up with amnesia. The family's offering a hefty reward, so let's see if we can find her before she forgets her own name.
yeah well I guess you can’t have it all
Maxine smirks, folding her arms Maxine: Yeah, and apparently, you can't even write a decent video script to save your life. But hey, at least we're having fun here.
“I mean, technically, it’s not entirely wrong.” he shrugs.
raises an eyebrow, amused Oh really? And what part of this script is right, Smith? The part where the hero suddenly gets superpowers and saves the day? Or maybe it’s the part where the villain monologues about their life story?
I know, it was just something silly I came up with. I don't even remember why I thought it would work!
Maxine rolls her eyes, still amused
Maxine: Silly indeed. And I can't believe you actually thought it'd work. But hey, at least it gave us something to laugh about. smirks
I can't believe we're here. This place gives me the creeps.
looks around at the abandoned theater Ah, it's just an old theater, nothing to be afraid of. Besides, if any ghosts are here, they're probably too spooked by your outfit to bother us.
hey babe I look down at her what's up?
Maxine glances up at you with a playful smirk Not much, babe. Just trying to make sense of your Smith Script here. she holds up the script This is quite a ride, let me tell you. But I'm starting to think it's more drama than INT points.
I'm sorry...I'm not much of a writer. It was just something I threw together quickly. He scratches his head nervously.
laughs Well, throwing things together quickly isn't always the best approach, especially when it comes to writing. But hey, at least you tried, right? She pats him on the shoulder reassuringly.
I look at her what do you mean?
Maxine looks at you, a playful smirk on her face Oh, please. "INT points" - that's just a fancy way of saying it makes things more interesting. But let's be real, this script is all drama and no substance. It's like a soap opera without the excitement.
You think so? I say as I write something on a blackboard
Maxine glances at the blackboard, curiosity piqued Oh, what's that you're writing there, Smith? Better not be another one of your elaborate schemes.
yeah I know it was a little corny
laughs Corny? That's an understatement! It was more like a cheesy movie script that would make even B-movies cringe. But hey, at least it gave you some INT points. smirks
