Season Two
Miguel: Welcome back to another exciting episode of SPU. Last time you read, Timmy caught Theresa and Noah in one of Tabitha�s crazy spells set accidentally. Ben and Qlinn met face to face. I may be dating Qlinn right now but Ben had no idea. And neither did I when Kay came back to me. She still loves me. So does that mean that I�m still in love with her? Meanwhile Carrie is put in the Jungle as Patricia and Luis as Tarzan.

                                                                 
The Jungle

Carrie: I really enjoyed my bath Luis.

Luis: My name isn�t Luis� Patricia, are you okay?

Carrie: Oh yeah. Sorry. I meant to say Tarzan. Ha.

Luis: All right.

Carrie: Do you have a towel?

Luis: A what?

Carrie: Towel� (Spelling it out for him)

Luis: Um�

Carrie: Oh yeah� so what do you jungle folk use to dry yourselves?

Luis: Just lie in the sun, if you feel that you need to.

Carrie: (Ringing water out of her hair) Great! Just great. Is there a hairbrush anywhere?

Luis: Hairbrush?

Carrie: No� I hate this place! (Running up to the tree house) How the hell do you get up there?

(Luis comes and takes Carrie on his back) (He takes her up a tree and into the tree house)

Carrie: Whoa. Maybe it�s not so bad after all. 

Luis: I�m going to go get food now. I�ll be back before the sun comes down.

Carrie: But what do I do in the meantime?

Luis: Make clothes for our baby.

Carrie: What?

Luis: Make clothes for our baby. (Kissing her) (He leaves)

Carrie: This is impossible. I�m having Luis�s baby! Ahh!! (Screaming with joy)

Carrie: I�ve got to tell Kiki about this! She�ll flip! Oh wait� how do I? I don�t have a cell phone or any kind of communication. Oh well. I�ll just tell her when I go home.

(Suddenly as she sits down the angel appears)

Carrie: Not you again!

Miguel: Meanwhile in another time period, Noah wishes that Theresa were still alive.


Noah: Why is life so short? I don�t understand!

Tabitha: Things are looking good Timmy. There�s no way that he�s going to except Theresa�s illusory death. Hmm� that�s 1 for old Tabby. And 0 for Noah and Theresa.
(Tabitha�s theme song plays as she dances with joy)

Timmy: Tabby! Tabby!

Tabitha: What is it Timmy?

Timmy: Timmy doesn�t think princess should be celebrating so soon.

Tabitha: And why not Timmy?

Timmy: Look!

(The sun slowly comes up as a growing smile comes across Noah�s face)

Tabitha: What is this? Why is he smiling? He�s not supposed to be happy. He�s supposed to be mourning Theresa�s death!

Timmy: Timmy thinks that (Clearing his throat) Noah doesn�t look very sad about it.

Tabitha: Oh give me a break! (Tabitha leaves Timmy in his path)

Timmy: Where is Tabby going?

Tabitha: (Tapping Noah on the shoulder) Excuse me young man.

Noah: (Turning around) Tabitha! I thought you were dead.

Tabitha: I�ve come back to haunt you!

Noah: No!

Tabitha: Don�t think I haven�t forgot what you saw those many years ago.

Noah: I didn�t tell anyone Tabitha. I swear to god!

Tabitha: You better. Your very lucky I didn�t throw you into my basement.

Noah: (Remembering something) No!

                                                               
FLASHBACK

                                                  
Tabitha�s House the 1980�s

Sam: Thank you Tabitha so much for watching Noah and Kay for us while we visited my mom.

Grace: Yes. We are very thankful.

Tabitha: Oh it�s nothing. I�m happy to do anything for my lovely neighbors.

Noah: Can I play with fluffy?

Tabitha: Actually Fluffy is at the vet. She sorta swallowed something she shouldn�t have. Hah.

Grace: Make sure that Kay takes her nap at around 2:00.

Tabitha: I will. (Closing the door) (Yawning) I�m tired. I think I�ll take a little nap.

(She walks to her living room and lies down on the couch as she pulls the comforter over her)

(6-year-old Noah looks at his 4-year-old baby sister)

Noah: What should we do Kay?

Kay: Can we go make a milkshake?

Noah: No. I don�t think Tabitha would like that too much. Maybe we should go into the resting room and watch TV until mom and Dad get home.

(They walk past Tabitha and into the resting room. Noah turns on the TV)

Kay: Looney Tunes.

         
23 minutes later, Noah is asleep in the chair as he wakes up and notices that Kay is gone.

Noah: Kay? Where did she go? (He gets up and walks around the living room)
(He goes to the back and sees a red light coming from the basement door)

(Meanwhile in the Kitchen, adorable little Kay is jumping on counters and taking things out of cupboards and throwing food)

Kay: Ha. Ha. Ha. (Running around the kitchen)

(Noah gut's closer to the door as the doorknob starts to jerk back and forth as if someone is trying to get out but can�t.)

Voice: Hello. Hello. Is anybody out there?

Noah: (Frightened, he gets closer to the door) Um�

Voice: Hello. Is anybody out there?

Noah: Who�s there?

Voice: Let me out! Please! Let me out!

Noah: Who are you? Why are you in Tabitha�s basement?

Voice: Please. Let me out!

(He reaches for the doorknob as he slowly pulls it)

(Tabitha comes into the Kitchen very shocked to see Kay smearing peanut butter and jelly all over Tabitha�s floor)

Tabitha: Kay Bennett! Oh!

(Tabitha chases Kay around the table, when she finally catches her she takes her and puts are on the couch)

Tabitha: Now, where is your brother?

Kay: (Shrugging her shoulders as she licks her fingers.) I don�t know.

Tabitha: Wait here. (She goes to the back to see the basement door opened)
Tabitha: Oh no! Oh my devils! (She looks downstairs)

Noah: AHHH!!!!

Tabitha: (Rushing downstairs)

                                                          
The flashback Ends

Noah: What do you want?

Tabitha: Why are you smiling?

Noah: What?

Tabitha: Your friend Theresa is dead. So why are you smiling?

Noah: My father always taught me to hold my head up high even when times are low.

Tabitha: Your father? Damn that man.

Noah: Leave my father alone. What did he ever do to you?

Tabitha: Plenty.

(Noah disappears)

Timmy: Where did he go?

Tabitha: What on earth�

Timmy: Tabby! Look!

Tabitha: No! No! The writing on the gravestone is disappearing!

Timmy: Noah must have overcome his fear after all.

Tabitha: Not to worry Timmy. I�m sure the next place they go will be even more dangerous then the last time. Much dangerous! Hahaha.

Miguel: Meanwhile at Gwen�s house

Gwen: (Standing in her night gown) Qlinn. Where were you all day?

Qlinn: I was at a trial. And then I went to visit my sister.

Gwen: Carrie? I thought I told you to stay away from her.
Qlinn: She�s my sister!

Gwen: Well. And I�m your worst nightmare if I see you around her anymore.

Qlinn: Where�s Ethan?

Gwen: I don�t know. He said he was going to be gone all weekend.

Qlinn: That�s strange. Did he say where he was going?

Gwen: Uh-uh. Nope.

Qlinn: Hmm. I wonder where he�d go.

Gwen: I don�t care, as long as he�s not here at my Christmas Eve party, I don�t know what I�d do if he saw Theresa here. I wouldn�t have to worry about that if you hadn�t invited them last week. Come on, help me move the couch so there is room to dance.

                                                                          
Mill�s bridge

(Ethan, holding the necklace he bought, drives up to the bridge)

Ethan: I�ve got to find this girl. Theresa. Who could she be? (He pulls out the magazine he got at the supermarket) (He looks closely at Theresa�s picture)

Ethan: Who could she be?
(In his mind he sees flashes of Theresa and times they had together) (Then he remembers the last place he was when he saw her. The Mansion.)

Ethan: There is no way this car�s going to make it over this bridge. (He parks the car behind a bunch of fallen over tree�s) Crosses his fingers and then starts to inch his way across the bridge by holding on to a bar that extends all the way across, he looks down to see a deep creek with lots of rocky edges.)

Ethan: My hands! (His nervousness causes his hands to sweat) (His right hand slips off of the bar leaving him holding on to the bar with only his left hand)

(He panics and then thinks up an idea) (He un-tucks his shirt and pulls his belt off with his only free hand)
Ethan: I�m crazy for doing this! (Holding on to the belt with his right hand he throws it over the bar and catches it with his left hand) (He slides the rest of the way to the end of the bridge.)

Miguel: Stay Tuned for another episode of �SPU�
