HARUHI HIGH S. 1, EP. 1

SCENE 1
' (fade into a black signage that says “the time was (time)”) '

 Polevos Narration (PN):  “The time was (time). And as we sat in the café waiting for the meeting to begin, I realized there was no turning back. Once you were in Haruhi High School’s World Trades Club, you would never be the same again.”

 Filos (FT):  (Taps Polevos on the shoulder) “Hey Polevos! Are you excited to be here?” (Bounces up and down)

 Polevos (PW):  (Sighs) [slightly annoyed] “Sure. What’s there not to be excited about?”

 FT:  “Exactly!” (turns to face the other person at the table) “What about you?”

 Megalo (MG for now):  (Nods with a subtle smile) “I really can’t wait to learn about the Old World’s governments.”

 FT: “That’s the spirit, Megalo!” (Bounces some more and looks over at another table) “I’ll be right back!” (walks to another table with Skoria and Afthonia)

PW: (Sighs again) “Please tell me he’s not about to go pester his crabby excuse for a brother…”

MG: (peers behind Polevos) “Knowing Filos, that’s the most likely thing to happen.”

(Both looks toward the table as a commotion arises from the table where Filos went)

FT: “C’mon, Skoria! Give me a hug!”

Skoria (ST): “I don’t care if we’re brothers, I’m still not hugging you!”

(Polevos and Megalo watch as Filos returns with a saddened expression)

FT: “He’s my brother! Why doesn’t he like me?”

PW: (puts an apologetic hand on Filos’s shoulder) “There are probably many reasons, Filos.”

SCENE 2
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">Iroas (IR): (Stands on table) “Ok, listen up kiddies, ‘cause this is how it’s gonna go down.” (gestures to room) “You’re gonna pick a country from the Old World, then you’re gonna be that country, and which ones are available are labeled behind me. Any questions?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">Agapi (AG): (Raises hand) “I have two.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">IR: (waves him away) “Sheesh! One at a time!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">AG: “What’s your name?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">IR: “Seriously, dude? That’s your question?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">(Agapi nods) “Well, of course.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">IR: “Eh, whatever. I’m Iroas and my lowly assistant over there is Tsai.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">Tsai (T): (pops up in the corner) “Excuse me? Don’t you mean lovely?” (Sighs) “Any who, I’ll be answering your questions from here on out.” (pushes Iroas out of the way)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">Kryos (KR): (Raises hand) “What kind of World Trades Club is this? In all seriousness, we’re meeting in a coffee shop.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">(character): “BUT STARBUCKS!” (this is met with a murmur of approval and a “shush your face”)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">T: “Actually, this question pops up quite a lot, so thanks, Kryos, for asking for clarification. In this world Trades club, it has nothing to do with stocks.” (shocked expressions from some students) “Really, this is a hands-on supplemental to your social studies class. BUT, you will finally understand the reasons behind the Old World’s collapse.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">IR: “But what really ends up happening is that the whole class turns into a gigantic game of Risk.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">Ryzi (RY): “But do we get to play Risk?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">(all students make noises of admiration)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">T: (Hurriedly) “Actually, I think you get to. Next?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">FT: (Waves hand wildly in the air) “Hey! Over here! I have one!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">IR & T: “huh?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">FT: “If we’re all the countries, how will we tell each other apart?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in"> IR: (Stands on the table again) “HAHA! Finally! An on-topic question- AAH! (falls off the table)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">Dasher the Barista: “Hey! Get off the tables!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">Static the Barista: “Yeah, if you break anything, it’s coming out of our paychecks!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">IR: (groans) “Sorry, dudes!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">T: (rolls eyes) “In other words, Dingus and I have been making flag patches for the countries over this past week.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">IR: “Dingus? Me? Nah. I’m not the one who messed up.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">T: (facepalms and ignores Iroas) “I see you’ve gathered into groups, why don’t you decide who’s who?”

SCENE 3
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">PW: “All that’s left now is decide. I think our biggest concern is picking different territories.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">MG: “Maybe instead, we could be allied countries.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">FT: “That’s a great idea! But I don’t know much about the Old World…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">PW: “That’s alright. It’s sort of what we’re here for.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">FT: “Hey Megalo, what’s that?” (stares at the book Megalo put on the table)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">MG: (opens to a page) “I was thinking something like this.” (hands book to Polevos)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">PW: “Axis powers? This symbolism is a bit confusing…”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">FT: (peers over Polevos’s shoulder) “And it says they lost!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">(Polevos and Filos look up at Megalo who has a mysterious smirk)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">PW: “Well, I guess its main powers fit us quite well… And it gives a chance for the underdogs to strike back!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">FT: “It’s perfect! The world will circle us!” (bounces some more)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">MG: “Thank you. I had a feeling you would approve.”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">PW: “…This is great and all, but why do I get the feeling that we’ve done this before?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">FT: “If that’s the case, the world will circle us once more!”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;tab-stops:center3.25in">(all three laugh)
