02x15 - Lizzie in the Middle

Post by bunniefuu »

Emotion, people! What I'm talking about is emotion.

Say it with me-- emotion! Emotion.

Try it this way.

E-motion! E-motion.

Mr.

Dig is a great substitute, but he scares me sometimes.

Acting is about honesty.

It's about movement-- acting and reacting.

Lizzie! Okay, he scares me all the time.

Now, that's real emotion.

How do you feel, Miss McGuire? Uh scared.

Good.

Is this for real? Is he okay? Does this mean class is over? Mr.

Dig! Are you okay? Can you hear me? Mr.

Dig! I don't think he's breathing! And that's the kind of emotion I want to see in your scenes today.

Mr.

Dig, that was so not funny.

You're right.

That wasn't comedy.

But you know what is? Malcolm in the Middle.

As a matter of fact I taught Frank Muniz everything he knows.

Sure you did, Mr.

Dig.

Oh, you kids are so cynical today.

It's a tragedy.

It's like one of Shakespeare's greatest plays Romeo and Juliet which you have just volunteered yourself to read.

Great.

And who'll be my Romeo today? How about Mr.

"Is Class Over 'Cause the Teacher's Dead"? Ethan, that means you.

You know, for a dead guy, you're kind of mean.

Now, go to your proverbial corners and come out acting! Does life get better than a love scene with Ethan Craft? "Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo?" "Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo?" Romeo? "But soft what light through yonder window breaks?" It is the East, and you are the sun.

" This is officially my all-time favorite play.

Hey, Frankie how'd you get out of the TV? If you believe We've got a picture-perfect plan We've got you fooled 'Cause we only do the best we can And sometimes we make it And sometimes we fake it But we get one step closer each and every day We'll figure it out on the way.

Lizzie McGuire S02E15 Lizzie in the Middle You guys, there's this totally crazy rumor going on that Frankie Muniz is here and having lunch with Lizzie.

She makes it sound like it could never happen.

Aw, gee, thanks, Frankie.

Cool.

Hey, I heard that, too.

He was in drama class.

He came to visit Mr.

Dig.

They read Romeo and Juliet.

It was kind of movie-of-the-week-ish.

Uh, but still, very cool.

So, uh how was your, uh, summer? Well, I finished sh**ting my series read a few movie scripts and bought a car.

What about you guys? Um, well, I-I, um Well, I started to, uh I broke my toe.

Gordo.

What? I did.

It was my big toe.

I had to go to the hospital.

It was very traumatic.

What? At least something more than "uh-um" happened to me.

So, um, what are you doing here? Yeah, it can't be because of Gordo's exciting "big toe" story.

I'm in town to sh**t a TV movie, and I thought I'd swing by and see my old friend, Mr.

Dig.

Hey, I've got to run back to my hotel to do an interview.

but, uh maybe you and I can go out sometime.

This is the part where the alarm clock always goes off.

Uh, Lizzie Frankie just asked you out.

Even I didn't see that one coming.

That beats my "big toe" story by a mile.

So, uh, Lizzie, how about it? Want to go out with me? I mean, I know I play a kind of dorky guy on TV but I'm not really like that.

Well I am sitting here, asking someone out I just met and you're just staring at me.

So maybe I'm a bigger dork than I play on TV? I'm just going to go crawl under a rock now.

Really, I'm fine.

N-N-No, justjust give her a sec.

I-I don't think she uh, heard the question.

Lizzie, uh, are you okay? Uh I-I-I'm fine.

Um I don't know.

Pick me! Me, please, me! It must be good to be a TV star.

Frankie! Frankie! Frankie! But he's famous.

That's exactly why I'm not going to date him.

We're from two different worlds, just like Romeo and Juliet.

And look how they ended up ! I'm impressed.

You really seem to make the right decision.

Whoa, whoa whoa-- when did we come up with the No-Dating-Famous-People rule? It's not his fault he's famous.

How do we know he's not a normal kid like one of us? I mean, what do you really know about him anyway? She knows it wouldn't work.

Exactly.

But she doesn't even really know anything about the guy.

You should at least give him a chance.

What guy? No guy.

Uh, Mr.

and Mrs.

McGuire let's just say Lizzie was asked out by a famous actor.

Hypothetically speaking of course.

Yeah, but shouldn't she at least give him a chance and go out with him? -Absolutely no.

-Absolutely yes.

Uh-oh.

I just found a disturbance in The Force.

We'll be going now.

We will? Yes.

Oh, right.

We will, yeah.

Okay.

Bye.

You are not dating some crazy Hollywood type.

Dad, Frankie Muniz is not crazy.

"Malcolm" asked you out? Is this after he hit his head hard? I think Lizzie is old enough to know who she wants to go out with.

He's he's the one from TV, right? She's not dating a movie star.

He's a TV star, honey.

|I don't care what you call him-- she's not dating him.

Lizzie, you know now that you're dating a celebrity you're going to need an entourage.

You know, someone to handle your media and security needs.

I'm that guy.

Please! Fine! Whatever.

Okay? Yes! I'll have, uh, my people call your people.

Wait a minute.

I am your people.

This is so cool! She's 14 years old.

You've got to let her grow up a little bit.

Mom, Dad, it doesn't matter anyway.

I already told Frankie no.

Oh.

You see? There's nothing to worry about.

I'll get it.

Hey.

What are you doing here? Can I just talk to you for a second? Then I promise I'll go be a loser somewhere else.

Okay.

So I can talk to you? Yes! I just thought if we could hang out a little you'd be taken with my quirky brand of charm.

So, is it working? Can I come in? How many times does opportunity have to knock before I answer? Yeah, you can.

Mom, Dad this is, um Frankie! Hey, uh, mind if I call you "F"? Uh, Matt McGuire.

You can just call me Matt McGuire.

I'm the head of Lizzie's entourage.

If you need anything, anything at all, just let me know.

You guys look nothing alike.

Thank you.

Hi, Frankie, nice to meet you.

Lizzie I thought you told him no.

I mean, uh, it's a pleasure to meet you Frankie.

"Tween.

" T-W-E-E-N.

It's the age between a child and a teenager.

That's not a word.

Oh, it's a word and a quadruple word score.

Good one, Lizzie.

Igloo? That looks nothing like an igloo.

Yes, it does.

It looks like a turtle.

And turtles look like igloos.

Silent Green is people! Uh, Mr.

McGuireit's your line.

Oh.

I thought I was a tree.

That was the warm-up exercise.

You know what? I think I'm going to go upstairs and saw some logs.

Get it? Tree? Logs? -Night, sweetie.

-Night.

-Night, honey.

-Honey, it's getting late.

Yeah.

It's getting past my bedtime.

Okay, I don't have a bedtime but I promised my mom I'd be back by 9:00.

I hope we see you again real soon, Frankie.

Yeah, me, too.

Me, three! So, I had a great time.

And I was with my family.

That, like, never happens.

See? Hanging out with me wasn't so completely terrible.

Not completely.

So, what about tomorrow? Can I see you again? Oh, actually, I was supposed to meet Miranda and Gordo at the Digital Bean.

You should meet us there.

Sounds great.

I'll be there.

Good night, Lizzie.

Night.

Try great night.

Wow.

Okay, news spreads fast.

Everyone's talking about Frankie showing up in your class yesterday.

I wish everyone would stop staring.

It's not like I'm the famous one.

You're famous by association.

That's what you get for hanging out with TV stars.

Well, Miranda was totally right.

Frankie is so normal and he's really cute.

So, uh, when is he meeting us? I don't know.

He was supposed to be here, like, ten minutes ago Ooh, I hope he didn't get lost.

Hey, Lizzie, do you know that guy? Isn't it kind of dark to be wearing sunglasses? Guys, that's Frankie.

Frankie, over here! Oh, I bet that's why he's wearing a disguise.

We have to go help him! Excu Move! We can't go through.

How about we go under? But these are new pants Miranda, Frankie is stuck in there.

I got him! Oh, you're not Frankie.

Ow, ow.

Eww, eww, I hate famous people.

Frankie! Oh! That cannot be good.

Okay, now what? Okay, since we cannot go under we're just going to have to go through.

We'll form a human chain and that's how we'll get him out.

Oh, is that all? Move! Thank you, guys.

It was really getting hot in there.

I didn't think I was going to make it out alive Hey, I got Frankie's autograph! Frankie! We have to save him! This is all my fault.

Ooh, I've got a plan.

Are you sure? Just give him a running start.

So what's the plan, guys? I'm just going to go on in.

Yeah.

Move it, Fred! I am so sorry, are you okay? I think so -Here, put these on.

-Why? Just do it.

So does being mobbed by a crowd of fans count as a first date? -Uh, you tell me.

-Yes And if we make it out of here maybe we can go out again.

Don't worry.

I've got something planned, okay? Miranda, now! Hey, everybody, look over there! Hey, everyone, it's Frankie Muniz! He's getting away! -I think you better run.

-I hate Lizzie.

Go, go.

I cannot wait to see what you have planned for our second date.

Can you believe this? I know, it's hard to believe.

The Bears have won three in a row.

-No.

Sam! The picture.

-Oh.

"Frankie Muniz, Lizzie McGuire and two unidentified friends at the Digital Bean.

" Oof.

It's not a good picture of Miranda.

I'm head of her entourage.

Do you realize how stupid this makes me look? It's okay --just, next time things will be handled differently.

Well, how about handling the trash? It needs to go out.

I'll bet Frankie's people don't have to take out the trash.

Come on, move, move, move.

Well, it looks like you guys had a pretty good time last night.

Yeah.

I really like Frankie and I don't think what happened yesterday was his fault.

Was it? Who thought dating someone famous would be this complicated? Oh, yeah -- I did.

-Hey.

-Hey.

What are you doing? Huh? Oh, nothing.

You done with that? What are you looking for? Okay, kid, how much do you want? How much what? Money, moolah, the green.

Lizzie McGuire is hot right now£¬ so if you've got the inside scoop I'll give you whatever you want, kid.

Talk to me.

Hey, Juliet, I think you're fine You really blow my mind Maybe someday you and me can run away I just want you to know I wanna be your Romeo Hey, Juliet Hey, Juliet (LMNT - Juliet) Hey, Juliet Believe me when I say Hey, Juliet Hey guys, where have you been? You didn't wait for me outside school today.

-Sorry.

-Forgot.

And you didn't return my phone calls, like, all weekend.

I was busy.

I had stuff to do like trying to avoid an entire crowd of screaming Frankie fans.

Oh, I'm sorry about that.

Actually, I wanted to apologize.

I mean I didn't mean for things to get so crazy at the Digital Bean.

Just comes with the territory of dating a famous actor, I guess.

If you hadn't gone out with him in the first place this would have never happened.

It's so weird.

I mean, reporters following us around.

My picture being in the newspaper and Matt wants me to have an entourage.

It's almost like I'm famous.

You are famous.

Miranda, I am not famous and I don't want to be.

Lizzie, I don't think you have a choice.

Listen, we tried to see you this weekend but we couldn't get anywhere near you.

I'm sorry, I-I didn't mean for It's okay.

It's just that Lizzie, I don't want my picture in the newspaper especially as the "unidentified friend" This whole thing has gotten way out of hand.

I can't deal with it.

You were the ones who told me that I should give Frankie a chance that he was totally normal and I did.

Frankie's not the problem.

It's the craziness that follows him around.

Stop! Lizzie Maguire and two unidentified friends.

-See? -Let's go.

You guys, wait! Now, on the first stop of the Lizzie McGuire media tour we have the kitchen.

Lizzie sits here every morning and eats her breakfast.

Now, here on the fridge we have Lizzie's math test.

Lizzie loves math ¡ª she got an "A.

" Now, the bidding starts at $10.

Welcome to Lizzie's bedroom.

This is where she sleeps and here we have Lizzie's favorite stuffed animal, Mr.

Snuggles.

She's had Mr.

Snuggles ever since she was a baby.

Do I hear $20? Next stop, the family room where we'll see a plethora of baby Lizzie photos now at low, low prices.

-Matt? -What's going on? Who are you people? What are you doing in my house? Get out, all of you.

Out! Vultures, all of them.

Good thing you guys showed up.

You were auctioning off your sister's stuff, weren't you? I can give you guys a piece of the action.

I'm grounded, ain't I? How you holding up? Well, let's see I can't walk out my front door without being followed.

Gordo and Miranda don't want to have anything to do with me and my life can't get any worse.

I guess this wouldn't be a good time to tell you that your brother's been auctioning off some of your stuff No, probably not.

Well, tell me what I can do, honey.

Can you give me my life back? Mom, I can't do this anymore.

I don't want to be famous.

People think it's so cool and fun and it's not.

It's it's lonely.

Well, why don't you break things off with Frankie? Because, if it's this lonely for me imagine how it is for him.

Well, I think you should tell him yourself.

Hey, Lizzie.

I'll give you guys a minute Frankie I need to talk to you.

Me first.

Lizzie, I'm so sorry.

I totally messed up your life.

No, it's not your fault.

Of course it's my fault or were reporters following you around before? No, not exactly.

The thing is, you're so cool, and I really like you.

But I know I made things bad for you, which isn't good the whole being bad thing, so So what you're saying is we shouldn't see each other anymore.

Yeah.

That.

Being an actor is overrated anyway.

Wow.

I almost believe that.

But I can still call you and e-mail you sometimes, right? Yeah, I think I can handle that.

My quirky charm works its magic once again.

Almost forgot.

-See you around.

-Sooner than you think.

Thank you.

Hey, you guys, what are you doing here? I thought you didn't want to hang out with me anymore.

Did we say that? I think you might have us confused with your two other best friends.

Yeah.

So, we're friends again? We were always friends.

And we're sorry.

Yeah, me, too.

But we don't have to worry about that whole, uh, press thing anymore because Frankie and I broke up.

-We know.

-How? Oh, Frankie told us.

Hey, guys.

Glad you could make it.

Well, thank you for the invite.

This is so cool to be on a real TV set.

Well, you're not just going to be watching.

These are your lines.

And you better hurry up and get into make-up.

What are you talking about? Oh, my gosh.

Lizzie's going to be in Frankie's new TV movie.

I can see it now -- Lizzie McGuire starring in "Rosen's Deal".

Break a leg, Lizzie.

We're rolling, we're rolling! Go, go, go! Cue, turn around! And action! Rosen, you forgot these keys.

Thanks, babe.

Rosen, you forgot these keys.

I don't really sound like that, do I, guys? Um yeah, you do.

Please never let me go on TV ever again.

Promise? Only if you promise to stop dating TV stars.

Deal.

And mark! Lizzie! Now that's, that's real emotion.

I'm annoying.

- I'd do a take two, wouldn't you guys? - Oh, yeah.

You still got film? Just like Romeo and Juliet.

And look how Bye.

-Let's cut.

-Okay.
