[bunniefuu]

[gentle upbeat music plays]

[female voice] Ainsley.

-Ainsley.
-Huh?

[ominous music plays]

[gasps] The legends are true.

[gentle music plays]

[sighs]

Just go and talk to her.
You guys haven't talked in weeks.

I know. First, she didn't tell me

she added a second focus in fashion design

and now she doesn't tell me anything.

I thought we were all best friends.

So, why don't you go talk to her?

Do you want me to talk to her?

No, and I will once she talks to me.

I'm away playing against Storm Central
all weekend.

Are you guys going to be okay,
just the two of you?

You focus on the football game.
Ainsley and I will be fine.

Not amazing, but fine.

[school bell rings]

[soft pensive music plays]

[ominous music plays]

Holy… rainbows.

One hundred fifty-six,



[uplifting music plays]

[gasps]

Avery Styles, my, my, my.

Robin, it's been so long.

We're all too busy, aren't we?

Chocolate strawberry?

We are oh so glad you could come to our

Sleepover Society Saturday slumber party,
darling.

I'd heard the rumors
about the Sleepover Society forever,

but I can't believe this is really real

and I'm really here!

The sleepover is a sacred rite

shared by friends throughout time.

From sea to shining sea,

our fore friends
have made hallowed tradition

of pillows and secrets and…

Uh, what Robin means

is stress levels can be completely bonkers
at Rainbow High.

And our society is here
to remind us to have fun.

This is a time to reconnect as friends,

not just classmates.

I love that, Brianna.
Thank you for inviting me.

It's always nice to make new friends.

-To friends.
-To friends.

-To friends.
-Friends.

That's good.

Now, onto rose essence masks,

slime packs and salty snacks.

[groans] Robin, you added too many scents.

Vanilla, mango, grape, banana, orange
is too much for the nose.

It's called a signature scent
and all great actors have them.

It's very old school Hollywood.

Oh! That opens up my sinuses.

[chuckling]

[upbeat music plays]

Wow, that's beautiful slime Ainse.

Sure you don't have any feedback?

What kind of feedback?

It's like something from the twins' play.

The gorgeous, magic,
snow ski perfect sisters,

or whatever
that extra long commercial was for.

[laughing]

I don't know about you all
but I need a manicure.

My cuticles are upset.

I love the post-slime mani.

Cuticle care is good for the soul.

[soft uplifting music plays]

Oh, it's better to do a bigger motion.
Like this.

[sighs] There just isn't anything
you can't do perfectly.

Is there?

[scoffs] I can't understand
why you're so mad at me.

What's going on with you two?

-Nothing.
-Nothing.

I haven't seen tension like this
since I watched

a rat and a pigeon
fight over a slice of pizza.

-That's disgusting.
-Who won?

[bell dings]

It's my favorite sound in the world,
the pizza alarm.

Time for friendship pizza.

We each make a pizza for each other

and we have to eat whatever
our friends make for us.

I'll make a pizza for Brianna,

Brianna for Robin, Robin for me,

and… oh! You two for each other.

Girls, I got the spiciest review from
Miss Wright on my photo journal today.

She said there wasn't enough
"raw emotion."

That's why I tried to get you
to do that crying exercise with me.

Acting stuff? Hard pass.

You'll regret it when I'm gone.

My, always so dramatic.

You're graduating.
It's not like we will never see you again.

But how will you go on without me?

Please don't start a crying exercise.

And what are you putting on my pizza?

Chocolate because you're sweet.

[groans] Thanks, Rob.

Aw, well,
I had a rough review this week too.

My work totally stunk.

That isn't true. You have the best designs
in pattern study.

They were not the best.

Avery, why haven't you put any toppings
on Ainsley's pizza?

Oh, Ainsley doesn't like toppings.

That's not the point. The game
is we make the pizza for our friend

and our friend has to eat
whatever we made.

Do you not think
I can handle some pizza toppings?

I'm not up to a challenge?

I didn't say that!

[tense dramatic music plays]

[shouts] I love my friendship pizza!

-That poor pizza.
-[coughs]

Disgusting.

[scoffs] If you have something to say,
Ainsley, just say it!

I can't handle a second focus!

I'm not good enough to be in fashion!

You and the rest of the class
have been doing it for years

and I'm always just trying to catch up.

If you really feel that way,

why didn't you just talk to me about it

instead of giving me the silent treatment?

How can I talk to you about it?

You're the best in our year.

You'd never get how hard it is.

I get you, Ainsley!

And since when did schoolwork
become more important than our friendship?

[grunting approvingly]

I'm sorry I didn't let you in.

It's because your opinion
means the most to me, so…

it's the one I've been the most afraid of.

Well, I'm sorry you felt like
you couldn't share something with me

because it would put more pressure on you.

I never want to be that person with you.

Now that's a crying exercise!

Ooh, I'm sorry.
We kind of ruined the sleepover.

[scoffs] Are you kidding?
We knew you two needed this.

-Sleepovers are made for this.
-[Kia coughs]

That's spicy.

-Gross!
-[all groaning]

Why would you put gumdrops?

[laughing]

Bella, you'll have to let us know

if the Sparkle Sister's ski lodge
lives up to the hype.

-You got it!
-And don't worry,

you can keep tabs on what we're up to

by watching
the Vi Life Staycation livestream.

Bella, time to jet!

Bye! I'll talk to you guys soon!

Poppy, are you excited to head home?
I know I am.

Actually, I'm staying here.

It's supposed to snow!

And I've never seen real snow
in person before.

That's great.
But you were so homesick for the beach.

I miss it but getting to have
my first ever snow day

with my BFFs is gonna be legend!

Jett Dawson even said we could wear
outfits from the play for ice skating!

Aw, I wish I was staying.

Send me lots of snow selfies, okay?

Oh, bundle up.
I did hear it's supposed to snow,

-like a lot.
-You know it.

Expect a snow selfie avalanche.

But not a real avalanche, hopefully.

Aw man.

How did we watch seven hours
of cookie bakeoff shows?

[yawns]

I am going to sleep.

Sleep? Are you kidding?

I'm too stoked
about seeing my first snow tomorrow. Ooh!

Maybe I'll work
on a winter themed playlist.

Ooh, idea!

Tomorrow night,

let's throw
a total school takeover dance party!

Awesome!

I'm down to provide tunes.

[lively electronic dance music plays]

Try to get a little sleep.

There's lots to do tomorrow.

I'll try.

But it's all the excitement
that's gonna keep me from sleeping.

[lively electronic music plays]

[snoring softly]

[gasps] I slept in.

Snow time!

[upbeat music plays]

That's better.

Bring on the cold!

Jade, Jade! There you are.

Let's go outside. There's snow everywhere!

[muffled chatter]

Jade's letting me do a full head cast
on her for a creepy photoshoot,

AKA my dream day.

Oh, well, when you're done,

I'd really love to get some pointers

from a former
childhood ice skating champion.

[muffled chatter]

I have no idea what you're saying
but I'm taking that as a yes.

Oh! Hey Poppy, good morning.

There you all are.

You ready to bundle up and go outside?

Soon,
but we're kind of in the middle of this.

I can't wait to have a party
while everyone's away.

You're all gonna see
my special dance moves,

the ones I can't do
when school's in session

because they're too amazing.

But what about outside?

Skating, snow angels, the wintery works.

Can you pretty please
help us decorate now?

And then we'll all go out when we're done.

Fine, I guess that's fair.

[whoops]

Yay! [chuckles]

[upbeat music plays]

[upbeat music continues]

It's a winter wonderland!

So, anyone here over break

is invited to our wintery mix dance party.

But for now, we're heading outside!

Yes! Finally!

[phone vibrates]

Oh! Got to get to work.
I'll meet you all afterwards, okay?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll drop off
your skating outfit on our way outside.

Yes, ice! Hello! I love… [groaning]

Oh my gosh, Poppy!

Are you okay?

I forgot you've never skated
on real, real ice before.

[groans]

I was not expecting real ice to be so…
icy.

And slippery.

You'll get better with practice.

[bright music plays]

[groaning]

I did it!

A few more times and I'll be a pro!

[groans]

Hey!

You guys ready to get hot cocoa
at the Rainbow Union?

[gasps] Yes, please!

But we've only been outside half an hour.

What about making snow women?

Or a snowball fight?

Or sledding!

There's only like an inch of snow.

Not enough to do any of that.

Yeah, our snow women would be so tiny.

They'd be more like snow ants.

But it's my first snow day.

I didn't go home just so I could
do winter stuff with you guys.

I think we need a break to warm up, P.

It's getting chilly out here.

So you all just want to go inside?

We'll come back to make snow ants later.

Maybe by then, there'll be enough snow
to make snow puppies.

But, um… I want some rainbow swirl cocoa
to warm up first.

Yeah, my hands feel like icicles.

Well, you guys can go in without me then.

I'm going to stay out here
a little longer.

You sure?

So sure.

See you later, Poppy.

-Bye Poppy.
-Save some snow for me.

[lively dance music plays]

[chuckles] Look at that. I got it!

Okay, the As are in for tonight.

Who knew everyone leaving for winter break

would mean we could get the prefix
to party with us!

[Jade] Hey!

Hey real Jade. How's plaster Jade?

She's good. Marisa is giving her elf ears
and a pointy nose.

Gotta say, her and I
are really on the same wavelength.

Hey guys, I'm off work
and ready to go skate!

Where's Poppy?

Still outside skating.

Our beach girl has gone full snow bunny.

You left her out on the ice alone?
A beginner skater?

Oh no!

[tense ominous music plays]

Oh, wow. It's snowing a lot harder
than it was before.

Does anyone see Poppy?

[Poppy] Hey! Hello?

Help! Is anyone out there?

Please help me!

Hello?

[ominous music plays]

Poppy!

[indistinct chatter]

Poppy! Are you okay?

I'm stuck

and it's wobbly and…

and I'm… I'm really cold.

I am so glad you're here.

Please help!

Okay, I'm gonna come get you.

Jade, be careful.

[Jade grunts]

Okay, plan B. Give me your hand.

[shouts]

[gasps]

[gasping]

Got a plan C?

We will… just hold tight.

Yeah. We got you.

Uh, I mean… we will. We will get you.

Come on. Let's go get some supplies
to save our girl.

But we can't just leave Poppy
out here alone… again.

Plus, we need to call for help.

Right. Good point.

Violet, you call for backup.

Sunny, stay, keep an eye on her
and keep her spirits up.

Ruby, Sky, let's go.

[suspenseful music plays]

Industrial strength cording.

Nearly impossible to sew through.

Hopefully impossible to tear.

[panting]

Hey, that could work.

Gotta get something pointy
to stick into the ice.

Like a hook or… Ooh!

[groans] Call failed again!

Where are my bars?

I can't find a single one!
Come on, service!

Sunny, pass me your phone.

No bars either! Come on!

But hey, Poppy,

we have to keep your mind off of…

your… situation.

Oh! How about a game?

I'll try anything.

As long as it's a game
that requires zero moving.

I know! I spy.

I spy… something white?

Is it the snow?

Yes, I'm sorry. I'm really stressed.

It's all I can think about.

Where is everybody already?

Right? They've been gone forever.

Or 30 minutes.
Time really slows down in a crisis.

There they are! [shouts]

We're coming, Poppy!

-Yes!
-I got this. Let's do this.

Poppy, quick.

Grab the ski.

[groans] It doesn't reach!

Jade, hand me both the skis.

[tense dramatic music plays]

Try now.

[grunts] I got it!

She's got it! She's got it!

Now just pull her to shore.

[straining] I'm not strong enough!

It's working, she's moving!

[straining] But we're slipping!

Sunny, heads up.

[grunting]

Hello, traction!

[gasps] Fashion and function!

We almost got her!

We did it!

-We did it!
-[indistinct chatter]

I would've been a popsicle without you.

Thank you for saving me.

We never should've left you
on the ice alone in the first place.

Yeah, that was so wrong of us.
I'm so sorry.

It'll never happen again.

My scout counselor would take away
all my team player badges for doing that.

Please don't tell her.

Thanks. I am so glad
you came back when you did

and put together a rescue plan so quick.

[inaudible] in a fashion emergency

[inaudible] would come in handy
during a real emergency.

Right?

From now on, I will take down anyone
who says heels aren't practical.

Agreed.
But maybe we finish this convo inside?

Poppy's teeth are chattering.

We need to get her
some rainbow swirl hot cocoa stat.

Yes, please. But… maybe after that,

we can come back outside
for some more snowy fun?

Um, are you sure?

We could just take some warm selfies
inside instead.

Are you kidding?

Getting some snow time with my friends?
All I ever wanted for winter break.

But maybe no more ice skating for now.

Deal.

We still have snow women

and skiing and snow angels
and sledding and…

[energetic upbeat music plays]

[energetic upbeat music continues]

The snow was all I dreamed it would be.

But now, I am wiped.

I am freezing.

I am hungry.

I think I need a nap.

I need a nap and a pizza.

Oh, hey! Everyone's here.

[all] Amaya!

I thought you were going home for break.

After Poppy told me she was staying here
for her first snow day,

I felt like I was missing out.

And I watched the Violet livestream

and I knew I had to come back
for friend time with all of you.

Yay!

So, what did I miss?

[laughs forcefully]

So much.

It would take all night
just to tell the story of today.

I want to hear it all.

Maybe while we get ready
for the amazing hallway dance party

Vi mentioned on the livestream.

Oh my gosh, I almost forgot!

T-minus one hour

until empty halls dance party time!

Woo! Party time!

[upbeat music plays]

-[laughing]
-[whooping]

-[laughing]
-[cheering]

[microphone feedback]

And this next one goes out to my friends

for making my first snow day
more fun than I ever imagined

and saved me from becoming a popsicle.

This one's for you!

[lively upbeat music plays]
