Who would do this?

Rhyme: Previously on "Chicken Girls"...

What about Robby Robbins?

Maybe let'’s just not jump to conclusions.

Why not? He'’s back and he'’s a miscreant.

Call it a journalist hunch.

Robby: I got suspended.

They found a can of spray paint in my locker.

- Well, did you tag the sign? - No, Ellie!

Or, Brooke, or whatever you go by these days.

Whatever happened to your Tim Sharp plan?

Don'’t worry. I'’ll be debuting a new boy toy on Halloween.

It'’s my number. Text me.

- Rhyme: Where'’s Angie? - Apparently she'’s deathly ill

and needs to be on vocal rest.

Half the kids in my math class are also out sick.

The show must go...

Are you ready for Spike and Birdie'’s day off?

Today was surprisingly fun.

I'’m not so sure Rooney would be thrilled

if she knew we'’re spending all this time together.

Hamilton: Things are weird enough with her as it is.

- Why are you still with me? - I'’m not really into guys.

I-- I didn'’t know, I'’m sorry.

- I didn'’t-- - It'’s totally okay.

- What'’s this? - The atmosphere shots.

Oh, my God.

Attention, students.

As you may know, a fast spreading epidemic

has gripped the hearts, minds,

and bodies of many Attaway students.

That'’s right.

We are amidst the worst mono outbreak

since the spring of '’87.

♪ Can you tell me why

In an effort to prevent more cases,

we'’re asking that all students take extra care.

This should go without saying,

but please wash your hands

after using the bathroom facilities,

cover your mouth when you cough,

and under no circumstances are you to share a beverage

with any other student.

There are some rumors going around

that mono is a kissing disease.

I would like you to know that these rumors are absolutely correct.

No kissing!

Thank you.

- We'’re taking five. - This isn'’t going well.

I really don'’t feel well.

Brooke, that is unacceptable.

I can'’t lose any more of you Bs.

Becky, you'’re being promoted.

I'’m Becky 1 now?

OMG!

I don'’t care if you'’re on your death bed.

When you'’re at practice,

you'’re giving it every last breath you'’ve got.

Is that clear?

Okay, let'’s get back to it.

And another one bites the dust.

We cannot work under these circumstances.

But I just got promoted.

Without Brooke we'’re officially outnumbered.

Code yellow-- I'’m making an executive decision.

Practice is cancelled.

Well, what are we supposed to do now?

Do whatever you would normally do on your own after school.

Like homework?

Whatever it is I don'’t care.

So... what do we do now?

I don'’t know about you two, but I have plans.

You'’re standing in front of my locker.

Yeah, that'’s kind of the point.

Well, can you move? I have places to be.

We have to talk, Birdie.

Why is everyone always trying to talk to me?

I just wanna be left alone.

Well this can'’t be left alone.

I don'’t know what this is

and I don'’t know what you'’re talking about it.

I'’m talking about you letting Robby take the blame

for something that you did.

That photo is blurry.

You can'’t even see who'’s in it.

What is wrong with you?

I understand you'’ve got a lot of things going on

back home with your mom and your dad

but you'’re a completely different person.

If you don'’t like it,

you don'’t have to worry about being my friend anymore.

That'’s not what I'’m saying.

All I'’m saying is that I'’m worried about you.

Save the lecture, Rooney.

You'’re not my mother.

Who sucks these days, by the way.

Not like you'’ve asked.

Birdie, I'’ve been your best friend since sixth grade.

Okay? Just tell me what'’s wrong and I'’ll help you.

I don'’t need your help. I don'’t.

Just leave me alone.

All right, everyone.

I have some terrible news to share.

Today I was informed that several of our cherished company members

have been felled by the great mono outbreak of 2018.

A moment of silence for our fallen soldiers.

[ coughs ]

This is bad.

I heard Angie'’s spine burst.

You mean her spleen?

It'’s true. Angie'’s been compromised.

She'’s on bed rest, indefinitely.

Which means, Rhyme, you'’re our new Juliet.

Me?

Juliet?

The understudy becomes the ingénue.

Praise the ghosts of the theater.

You'’re already so well prepared.

I hope so.

We'’re all going to be leaning on you now, Rhyme.

Hey, you'’re gonna be amazing.

I know you are, Juliet.

[ Woman on TV ]: Diana, yes, yes I did.

I figured out your new punishment.

Nothing like some vitamin C.

This sucks.

Welcome to my world.

At least you don'’t have mono.

Actually, I have had mono twice.

There was this one girl down on the pier two summers ago.

And then the second girl--

I-- I don'’t wanna know.

Well, at least we'’re under house arrest together.

So what have you been up to since you'’ve been suspended?

Mostly school.

But it'’s kind of hard

when you'’re not actually allowed in school.

That sounds terrible.

Well, the rest of the time is pretty chill.

And I eat, I sleep,

I contemplate building a pillow fort.

A pillow fort?

Okay, this is actually really cool.

Being stuck here isn'’t so bad after all.

Well, now that you'’re here it isn'’t.

[ coughs ] So sorry.

I can'’t let you get mono.

No, no, it'’s cool.

I'’m probably immune to it by now.

Did I mention girl number two?

Yeah, you did.

Well, I'’m stuck with you anyway.

I'’m gonna get you some orange juice.

- Okay. - Yeah.

[ music playing ]

- So. - So.

I'’m glad you could make it

with the whole mono thing going around.

Guess it'’s like a kissing disease.

We probably shouldn'’t kiss each other, right?

Uh-huh.

I mean, not like we are gonna kiss or anything.

This is just a date, right?

This is a date, right?

Just because you have mono doesn'’t mean I do.

That'’s impossible.

I feel just fine.

No you don'’t.

My poor sweet, Flash.

You must be hallucinating.

Calm down.

I'’ll be your nurse.

Well, you probably have mono now.

- But-- - Shh.

We'’re in this together.

♪ Hey [ hey ] sunshine

♪ It'’s a beautiful day ♪

Robby, are you picking the oranges

and squeezing them yourself?

Yeah, I'’m having a hard time.

Yeah, nobody likes me here.

Ellie?

She can barely even tolerate me.

Yes, I'’m trying, I promise.

Can I just come on tour with you?

Beatriz: Two croissants, two paninis,

one muffin.

We'’ll share everything.

Wow. Okay.

So glad you didn'’t order the salad

with all that extra dressing on the side.

I'’m a dancer. Carbs are life.

That should be a bumper sticker.

Or a needlepoint.

I used to needlepoint and want to sell them online.

Like on Etsy?

Yeah, I-- I know it'’s lame.

I'’ve actually never told anyone about it before.

Why not? That'’s genius.

Britney and the Beckys would definitely make fun of me

if they knew I was putting catchphrases on pillows.

I mean, joke'’s on them.

Trust me.

I'’m a bit of a word nerd.

There'’s a whole market for that sort of thing.

A word nerd?

- Seriously? - Point proven.

For the record, this is a date.

You wanna share a hot chocolate?

- Hamilton? - No, silly, it'’s me.

You must really be sick.

- How do you feel? - What time is it?

I don'’t know. Why?

[ doorbell rings ]

Oh.

Hi.

Did you bring me soup?

It'’s actually for Quinn.

Since she and I are sick we might as well be sick together.

You and Quinn have gotten really close recently, huh?

I guess so.

And now you both have mono.

Interesting!

Have not saints lips

and cowboys, too?

Ay, cowboy... lip.

Line.

Ay, cowboy lips, they use to cattle call.

Cattle call.

- Right. - Okay.

I'’m not doing very well.

Don'’t worry, we all mess up.

You don'’t.

But I have,

and I will again.

Come on, you'’re doing great.

- Am I? - Just look into my eyes.

Don'’t even think of it as a scene?

Just you and me talking to each other.

Okay?

- You got this. - Shall we? From the top.

Have not saints lips and cowboys, too?

Ay, cowboy lips, they use to cattle call.

And then he gets down on one knee

and with deep feeling he says...

O, then, dear saint, let lips serve as a call to cattle.

Saints do not move, though grant there for their cattle call'’s sake.

Then move not, whilst my calls effect I take.

Yes! And now they'’re kissing.

And they kiss.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, no kissing.

Sorry, no kissing.

The mono. Mono.

Good job, though.

Birdie: If my mom finds out, she'’ll kill me.

Is it gonna hurt?

Shouldn'’t hurt that bad.

It'’s just so... permanent.

Well, exactly.

Years from now you look at it, remember us

and this moment.

Rooney knows about the sign.

She got a picture.

She gonna snitch?

I don'’t know.

I don'’t think she would ever betray me like that.

Plus, snitches get stitches.

I'’m with you on that.

♪ You got no water to quench your thirst ♪

Birdie...

I think I'’m falling for you.

Like... hardcore.

I'’m falling for you, too.

I am actually doing this.
