Transcript
(Pan in on the Bunkest, and then on Jasmine, who is lying on her bed stomach first. Jasmine briefly groans, when Pixel walks in.)

Pixel: What's the matter, Jasmine?

Jasmine: (groans again)

Pixel: Did you forget English again?

Jasmine: (sighs, then gets up) No, I'm just desperate.

Pixel: For what?

Jasmine: A girlfriend. I've been a desperate lesbian for about two or three years now, but nothing has really come out of it.

Pixel: Don't worry, dude, I'm sure someone will come to you someday!

Jasmine: (shakes her head) Nah, every lesbian is like this. You could put twenty-seven single lesbians in one room, all begging for a girlfriend, and none of them would see the opportunity at hand. I just wish someday, a cute girl would come up to me and tell me I look cute.

(ACF peaks their head through the door)

ACF: Have you tried looking into the mirror lately?

Jasmine: I tried, but my reflection walked away blushing because she was too worried to confront me.

ACF: I am so sorry.

Jasmine: I wish that somehow, someday, I would find someone exactly as cute as me, that way we don't need to worry about dating someone out of our league, and we can get together, and everything will be okay. I just don't know where to begin.

ACF: Maybe you could go outside?

Jasmine: I suppose it's worth a shot...

(Wipe to outside the Bunkest. Jasmine is sitting at a bench, waiting for a cute girl to stop next to her, and willingly start a coincidence.)

Jasmine: So how is this supposed to work again?

ACF: Well, just walk around and try talking to people. Maybe you could eventually find someone.

Jasmine: But I'm too nervous to try that! Is there anything else?

Pixel: Well, maybe someone could see you?

Jasmine: Please, it's not like some cute girl will suddenly take a seat right next to me and kickstart a romantic relationship.



(Jasminette walks up to the bench, and sits down. Jasminette looks almost exactly like Jasmine, but more "femme," with pink, fluffier hair, more notable eyelashes, visible lipstick, and a light pink jacket and pants, as opposed to Jasmine's denim clothing. She briefly eyes Jasmine, before looking back down at her phone. Jasmine attempts to speak, but struggles.)

Jasmine: H

(Jasmine shivers. Pixel and ACF are encouraging her, but she struggles for a moment. She gulps, and tries to speak again.)

Jasmine: H... h-hi.

(Jasmine tries to look away, hiding the blush in her face. Jasminette turns to her and responds.)

Jasminette: Oh, hello.

Jasmine: (Turns back to Jasminette, slightly shivering.) W-what would your name be?

Jasminette: Jasminette.

Jasmine: I'm Jasmine.

Jasminette: That's a kind of cute name.

Jasmine: I think you're cute too.

(Jasminette chuckles, and briefly strokes Jasmine's hair. Jasmine brushes profusely, when suddenly her bus arrives.)

Jasminette: Oops, gotta go. (Before she gets on to the bus, she gets out a piece of paper and a pen, and writes down a number. She hands it to Jasmine, and walks onto the bus, which drives away. Jasmine, alone in the bench with Pixel and Ace behind her, is blushing intensely with a slightly dazed expression on her face. The scene transitions to Jasmine in the Bunkest, talking to Moch.)

Jasmine: I think a girl might have a crush on me.

Moch: What makes you say that?

Jasmine: Well, she complimented my name. And she giggled when I said she looked cute. And she felt my hair. Then she gave me her phone number. But I'm not sure, she could be joking, maybe she just really wants a new friend. What do you think?

Moch: (Briefly stares at Jasmine in disbelief, wondering how Jasmine is still slightly denying this obvious crush.) Yeah, this girl totally has the hots for you.

Jasmine: Well, what do I do about it? She has to be leagues above me.

Moch: You say that about every girl.

Jasmine: Only because it's true!

Moch: Well you said she gave you her number, maybe you should try calling it?

Jasmine: *sighs* I suppose I should. (takes deep breath, gets out phone, and types in number. half the screen fills with an employee on the pizza joint)

Jasmine: Who's there?

Harry Henry': Harry Henry, of Harry Henry's Pizza Joint. How may I be of your assistance?

(Jasmine's expression quickly turns to one of disappointment. She slams down the phone.)

Jasmine: Unbelievable. She pranked me by giving me the number of a pizza joint! Time to sulk in sorrow again. (Falls back on bed, and starts groaning again.)

(Back at the pizza joint, Harry Henry loses reception.)

Harry Henry: Hello? (phone emits "lost connection" tone) Aww, lost connection. Jasminette, I think we had another prank call.

Jasminette: Oh my, how disappointing.
