Tell Henry that he has to help me
and I need you guys to help me think
- of a new meet cute plan. - No.
- Yes! - Look, Paper.
I know you're like seven
and you think you know everything.
I'm Piper and I'm 12.
Be that as it may, I'm gonna show you
that young love can begin
with something as simple as a good old fashioned,
"Nice to meet you. How do you do?"
Yeah, try that.
Come on, let's go.
No, I'm not going 'till we come up
with another meet cute plan, and then I have to make
an animatic of it.
When did you learn how to make animatics?
That's not the point!
Look, we're going to do this my way so--
Alright, I'm gonna carry her over to Downtown Brown.
Good, take your time.
[music playing]
[groaning]
What's going on?
Uh, look who's waking up.
[groaning]
Uh, how did I get back here?
Look, life's not about how we get places.
It's about what happens at those places,
after we've gotten there.
Here.
Huh?
So, where's this allegedly cute boy
you wanna meet so bad?
Oh. Um.
He's right over there in the cool blue jacket.
Okay, so I'm gonna stay right here,
and I want you to walk right over to that boy
and say, "Hi, my name is Paper Hart,
and I would like to introduce myself to you
so that we can be--" [screaming]
There's a big bug on the coffee bean display!
Oh, my God, it's a scorpion! [screaming]
Alright, everybody, let's just calm down. Okay?
You know, uh, I used to be
a better than average tennis player back in my day.
You mind?
Alright, Mr. Scorpion.
Don't take this personally, but game, set and smash!
Who was that?
[screaming]
[gasping]
[groaning]
Jackson! Quick, somebody call an ambulance!
Why don't you get a better tennis racket, guy?!
[siren blaring]
[cb chattering]
Alright, let's get him out from under that coffee thing.
You guys see what happened?
Yeah, there was a big scorpion.
Uh, I'm the adult.
So, apparently that poorly constructed display case
just fell off the wall for no reason
that anyone can prove.
[sighing]
[cb chattering]
Listen, Hopper.
I know you're sad, and I'm sorry
that you didn't get to have the meet cute that you wanted.
Yeah, yeah. Uh, you think that lady paramedic's
about the same height as me?
Yeah. So?
Uh. [chuckles]
Excuse me,
Can I show you something behind that door over there?
Uh, yeah. Okay.
Hey! What?! What are you doing?!
[unintelligible]
Hey, that's my paramedic uniform!
[unintelligible]
[siren blaring]
[cb chatter]
What happened to me?
Well, uh, you sustained some minor injuries,
but luckily, we paramedics showed up.
And you're gonna be okay.
You're... You're a paramedic?
Uh-huh. Yeah. [chuckles]
Totally.
But... you look like you're my age.
Yeah, well, um...
I- I'm in- I'm in the Junior Paramedics program, so.
Cool.
Thanks.
Hey, you don't happen to go to Swellview Junior High, do ya?
Yeah, I-I just started there.
No way, I go there, too.
I'm Piper Hart.
Jackson Barto.
Hey, uh... we should, like, maybe... hang out sometime.
Sure, I can hang.
[sighing] Wow.
This is a pretty crazy way for us to meet.
I know. Isn't it cute?
