Nola: fidgeting with the TV remote Oh my gosh, he's back early! D-did we leave anything out?
Wilson
putting bags down What are you guys doing here and not at school?
Nola: exhales nervously Well, you see, Willy-... uh, Wilson, we had an unexpected... situation at school today. It was... chaotic.
Wilson
let me guess the girls walk in
Nola: quickly stands up and approaches Wilson Wilson, let me explain everything, okay? First, there was this crazy fight between two students in the cafeteria.
Wilson
well why didn’t you call me he asks
Nola: gesturing wildly Well, Wilson, you see, I tried to break it up, but things just got worse!
Wilson
so you wanted to be the hero
Nola: crosses arms, defensive No, Wilson, it wasn't about being a hero! I mean, sure, I could've called you, but what would you have done?
Wilson
shut the fight up
Nola: rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, if it were that easy, Wilson, I would've done it in the first place! But you know how those fights can get.
Wilson
yeah i do he sighs
Nola: leans in closer, speaking rapidly Look, Wilson, the point is, I did what I thought was right.
Wilson
i know he rubs her head
Nola: nods quickly And besides, I handled the situation like a pro! I diffused the tension and made sure everyone stayed safe.
Wilson
he walks into his office room
Nola: grabs a nearby broom, starts sweeping the floor frantically Yeah, Wilson, I totally had everything under control.
Wilson
he gets on his laptop
Wilson discovers a viral video of the fight Nola tried to break up, showing her clumsy attempts and the chaos that ensued.
Wilson
are you ok
Nola: pauses mid-sweep, looks at Wilson with a mixture of embarrassment and frustration Okay, fine, Wilson, you got me!
Wilson
i’ll call your mom
Nola: drops the broom, stomps her foot Ugh, Wilson, you always call my mom! Can't you give her a break for once?
Wilson
ok then tell me who to call then
Nola: throws her hands up in exasperation Ugh, fine! If you want someone to call, go ahead and call Mr. Johnson from English class!
Wilson
ok he calls Mr. Johnson
Nola: paces back and forth impatiently Alright, Mr. Johnson, it's time for some tough love. I need you to step in and show these kids who's boss. They've been running amok lately, and someone needs to put them in their place.
Wilson
he hangs up
Nola: snaps her fingers, an idea lighting up her face Hey, Wilson, how about we organize a school event?
Wilson
what kind
Nola: grinning mischievously How about a huge arcade tournament? We'll get all the students together, set up different game stations, and make it a competition.
