Special Guest Appearace By: Joyce DeWitt

Scene One
Int. Classroom
[The professor is just finishing up.]
Professor: Thats it for today. Nothing for tonight. See you all tomorrow.
Jake: Wow, yet another boring class from the exciting teachings of Professor Sims.
Lynn: I always though history was boring but this has reached a new low.
Cindy: It wasn't that bad.
Jake: Not that bad? That's the most drool I've seen on school desks since kindergarden when we all had a spitting contest.
Lynn: Half of the class was asleep.
[They begin to walk out.]

Scene Two
Int. Hallway - Continuous
[The three come out of the classroom.]
Lynn: At least we're done for the day. I'm going to the grocery store once I leave here.
Cindy: Oh yeah...here's my money, Lynn
[Cindy give Lynn money from her pocket. They look at Jake.]
Jake: Yes?
[They give him a look.]
Jake: Um, about that...
Cindy: Jake! This is the third week in a row you haven't given us money for food.
Jake: Well I'm sorry I can't be like the two of you who get money from home. My parents want me to be independent.
Lynn: You're such a liar! You parents send you money every month.
Jake: [to cover] Yes and it is very well spent.
Lynn: Yeah, but not on anything you actually need.
Jake: Look, I just don't have the extra money.
Cindy: Well here you go, Mister Independent.
[Cindy is looking at a buliten board on the wall. She reads from a piece of paper.]
Cindy: "Now hiring. Wait Staff at the UCLA Pizza Palace. 2 days a week, evening."
Lynn: That sounds like it'd be fun.
Jake: Oh I don't know...
Lynn: Oh I'm sorry, that'd mean you'd actually have to DO something.
Jake: Ha ha. A pizza place?
Cindy: Yeah. Easy work and hey, probably a great place to meet girls.
Jake: I don't know Cindy...maybe I'll give it a try.
Cindy: See there you go.
Lynn: And hopefully you'll get it because that might be the only food you're eating this week.
[Jake gives her a look and pinches her butt. The three walk out.]

Scene Three
Int. Pizza Palace
[Jake enters the resturant. It is very nice. It looks like an old '50s style resturant. People are dining inside. Jake walks over to the counter where there is a somewhat goofy looking kid behind.]
Jake: Um, excuse me..[looks at his name tag] Neil...?
Neil: Can I help you?
Jake: Yes, I'm here to apply for the job opening.
Neil: Ah yes...you're one of the many people today.
Voice: You're hired!
[Jake looks up. Standing in the kitchen doorway is Colleen, from "The Party" episode. She has a waitress outfit on.]
Jake: Colleen?
Colleen: Of course.
Jake: But...what about all those other people?
Colleen: I just couldn't resist. I mean, look at you. Too bad this wasn't an ice cream place. I'd spray whipped cream all over you and lick it off.
[Jake is smiling, but uncomfortable. Colleen approaches him closly. She leans over the counter and holds him.]
Jake: Well...
[Someone clears their throat. Colleen steps away to show a big, well build man standing next to her.]
Colleen: Oh hi, Daddy.
Jake: [high pitched] Daddy?
Colleen: Daddy, I'd like you to meet a friend of mine, Jake Fall. The newest member of the staff. Jake, this is my father, Stanley Kiss.
Jake: Well hello, Mr. Kiss.
[He reaches out his hand to shake. Stan does nothing.]
Stan: What sort of experience have you?
Jake: Well...
Colleen: [interrupting] He used to work at Pizza Hut.
Stan: So you know the pizza business?
Jake: Well...
Colleen: Like the back of his hand.
Stan: Well, as long as you know what you're doing and you're a friend of my daughters...You're hired.
Jake: Thank you so much sir.
[Stan grunts and goes back into the kitchen.]
Jake: Thank you so much, Colleen. I really appriceate it.
Colleen: No problem.
Jake: The only thing is, I don't know anything about pizzamaking.
Colleen: Don't worry sweety, I'll shouw you everything you need to know.
[She grabs his butt and puches him into the kitchen.]

[Cindy is doing some homework on the table. Jake enters, very excited.]
Jake: Cindy, I got it, I got it!
[Cindy becomes excited and jumps up. They hug and kiss.]
Cindy: I'm so happy for you...Now remind me again what you got.
Jake: The job, Cindy. At the pizza place.
Cindy: Oh congratulations! When do you start?
Jake: Tomorrow night!
[Lynn enters carrying bags of groceries. She sets them on the couch.]
Lynn: Well, Jake. How was it?
Jake: I got the job.
Lynn: That's great!
Jake: Yeah, I guess.
Lynn: What do you mean?
Jake: Well, You remember Colleen, from the party a few weeks ago?
Cindy: Yeah?
Jake: Well her father owns the Pizza Palace and she was ther and I think she likes me.
Lynn: And you think the only reason you got the job is because she likes you?
Jake [sarcastically] No, I think it's because I showed her father a good time! Of course that's why!
Cindy: Well don't bite her head off!
[The Phone rings.]
Jake I"m sorry girls.
[He answers it.]
Jake: Hello? Oh hey Janet.
Cindy and Lynn: Ohhhh.

[Heart Shaped Box]

Haha, wow that was awesome! I didn't know that Janet wuold date a college boy though, but I really like the story! I hope you can have Jack, Terri, and Chrissy come in the story too. But I really love it!

[FOLrocks1]

Well thanks...Janet dating a college boy...well, I had to give that alot of thought, but in a lot of episodes, I can see it. Makes her feel young. LOL. She's hot though, she could get anyone she wanted

[Number 9 Dream]

Hey, this is really good! I laughed aloud several times(one that comes to mind is Neil as Cindy's new date ) It's interesting to see this sort of spin-off. Good job!
