SIDE 1
TRACY
Detention! Is there no pity for a teen just trying to fit in?
SEAWEED
Maybe you oughtn t try so hard?
TRACY
Excuse me. You get detention just about every time I do, and I ve never seen you complain.
SEAWEED
Oh, but I do. This is my way of complaining.
(SEAWEED turns on a small transistor radio. #9 DETENTION TO HOP (PART 1) begins. The music starts and he does a soulful little dance.)
TRACY
Hey, that move s swift.
SEAWEED
(another step)
Here s a little something-something signified to say, Hello, my name s Seaweed J. Stubbs, and what s yours, baby?
TRACY
That s unbelievable. Can I do that?
SEAWEED
I don t know. Can you?
(TRACY and SEAWEED dance together.)
