The screen fades in to a man, Jack Fenton, dressed in an orange jumpsuit with black hair that seems to be starting to turn white.
Jack Fenton So, Danny...
The shot moves out to Jack standing in front of three teenagers in chairs. On the far left is his son, Danny Fenton, a black-haired boy dressed in a white with red shirt, blue jeans, and red-and-white sneakers. Sitting next to him is a black-haired girl and an African-American boy. The girl, Sam Manson, is wearing stereotypical goth attire consisting of a black with purple tank top that exposes her midriff, a black skirt with green plaid stripes, purple tights, and black boots. The other boy, Tucker Foley, is wearing a red hat with a yellow shirt along with green pants and brown boots. The entire group is sitting in front of a closed yellow-and-black-striped door that seems to be a portal of some kind.
Jack You and your little friends want to hunt ghosts.
Danny Fenton Uh, actually, Dad? I want to be an astronaut.
Sam Manson Sorry, Mr. Fenton. I was into ghosts, but they're so mainstream now. They're like cellphones.
Tucker Foley Waste these looks and all this charisma hunting ghosts? Criminal.
Jack Well, if you do want to hunt ghosts, there are a few things you need to learn. (He turns to a table behind him with laboratory equipment and beakers.)
A blue mist suddenly escapes Danny's mouth.
Danny Uh oh.
Cut to the portal door opening.
Danny (Off-screen) This isn't good.
Two ectopuses escape from the green-swirling portal. The ghosts grab Sam and Tucker around their mouths and lift them up out of their chairs. Cut to Jack's face.
Jack True, I've never seen a ghost, but when I do, I'll be prepared.
Pan to Danny standing behind his father. Danny looks alarmed. The ectopuses are floating above the floor, Sam and Tucker still in their grasp.
Jack (Off-screen) And so will you. Whether you want to be or not.
Danny gets a determined look on his face. The shot opens to Jack still messing with the various items on the lab table while Danny jumps off-screen, a white light appearing and disappearing before various fighting noises are heard.
Jack (Not aware of anything going on:) It all starts with your equipment.
As he says this he holds up an item that looks like a thermos. Behind him an ectopus goes flying past and off-screen. Sam and Tucker are flung back into their chairs. Jack goes over to them.
Jack Sam, Tucker, this is the Fenton Thermos.
Jack hands the thermos to Sam, and both Sam and Tucker look at it. Jack turns back around to the lab table.
Jack It's supposed to trap ghosts (Shows Sam and Tucker sitting behind Jack just as an ectopus goes flying past and off-screen. Jack doesn't notice.) but since it doesn't work yet it's just a thermos. A thermos with the word "Fenton" in front of it.
Cut to the open portal. The ectopuses look defeated and dizzy and fly back into the swirling portal. Another white light flashes off-screen. The screen opens a little to reveal Danny standing where the light came from. The portal suddenly closes and Danny jumps offscreen. Jack points at the now-closed portal.
Jack And that? That is the Fenton Portal. It releases ghosts into our world whether I want it to or not. And someday, I'll figure out how that (He taps the door.) works too. (He turns around and walks towards Sam and Tucker, towering over them. Both Sam and Tucker are trembling.) Now, who wants to hunt some ghosts?
Cut to Sam and Tucker trembling and Danny suddenly appears behind them, panting and putting a hand on the back of Tucker's chair. Cut back to Jack.
Jack You kids, look at you! You're too excited to speak! So I'll just go on speaking. I was born many years ago in a log cabin in the woods. Don't exactly remember where, but I do remember I wanted a pony. (Sam and Tucker, both still trembling, look at Danny who only hangs his head.) Never got the pony. As a matter of fact we had to eat horsemeat during the war. I had a problem with that.
The screen fades to black.
Cut to theme song
The screen fades in to a street which pans right to a building with signs calling it "Fenton Works" on the corner of the intersection. The shot suddenly zooms out revealing the eccentric looking rooftop of FentonWorks, complete with various satellite dishes and tracking equipment.
The screen fades to a shot of Danny's mother, Maddie, in the kitchen. She puts on the hood of her blue jumpsuit and begins putting some final touches using a torch on a new invention.
Pan right. A girl with orange hair who seems to be Danny's older sister, glances up from a book she's reading to look at her mom with annoyance before sticking her nose back in her book again. Danny is busy eating cereal.
Danny's sister, Jazz, peers over the top of her book titled "Surviving Adolescence Through Therapy" before going back to reading it.
Cut to Danny, continuing to eat cereal, and then a shot of Danny's hand suddenly disappearing. His spoon suddenly drops through his intangible hand as he attempts to take a bite of cereal. Danny gasps before looking down at his missing hand. Upon realizing his hand is invisible, Danny freaks out and quickly hides his hand under the table.
Cut back to Maddie working on the invention.
Maddie Fenton Okay, two more days, and it's done!
She turns off the torch and Jack appears behind her.
Jack What did you say? (He grabs the invention.) It's done? (He holds it dramatically in front of him.) The Fenton Finder is done!
Jack This baby uses satellites to lead you right to the ghosts.
Danny It uses what to track what?
Cut to the Fenton Finder. Beeping noises are heard.
Fenton Finder (In a woman's voice:) Welcome to the Fenton Finder. A ghost is near. Walk forward.
Danny walks away from the invention while his parents move closer towards him, the invention beeping louder and faster as they move closer to Danny. Danny is backed into a wall. Shot pans out to show Maddie and a confused Jack holding the Fenton Finder in front of Danny.
Fenton Finder Ghost located. Thank you for using the Fenton Finder. (Danny gives them a weak smile.)
Jack What? Oh, that can't be right.
Cut to Danny leaning against the wall, a weak smile still on his face. His whole body suddenly turns invisible. He looks down at himself, terrified, after realizing this, and quickly manages to return to normal. He then gives a look of defeat.
Danny Actually...I need to tell you guys something.
Cut to Jazz, closing her book.
Jazz Fenton That's not all you need, Danny. (She walks over to where her parents and Danny are standing.) You need guidance, and parents who can provide it.
Maddie Sweetie, I know what we do doesn't make sense sometimes, but you're only-
Jazz Sixteen. Biologically! (Danny backs out of the shot.) But psychologically, I'm an adult! And I will not allow your insane obsession with ghosts (She pulls Danny back into the shot, holding him close to her) to pollute the mind of this impressionable little child! (She looks down at Danny, who seems a little weirded out by this conversation.) Come, you abused, unwanted wretch. I'll drive you to school. (She glares at her parents before walking off, her arms still around Danny.)
Maddie Huh. That's weird. Jasmine never offers to drive Danny to school.
Jack That can only mean one thing. That's not our daughter; that's a ghost. (Jack suddenly runs off-screen.) Danny, no! It's a trap! (Maddie follows after him.)
Screen fades into a shot of the outside of a school called "Casper High".
A school-bell rings and the shot pans in towards the front door, fading to a crowded hallway in the school where most of the kids are heading to class. Danny, Sam, and Tucker walk through the hallway before going up a flight of stairs.
Danny I think I should tell them.
Sam Why? Parents don't listen.
The trio comes to a stop midway up the stairs.
Sam Even worse, they don't understand! (Sam throws her head back and yells.) WHY CAN'T THEY ACCEPT ME FOR WHO I AM?!
Danny Sam, I-I'm talking about my powers, my problems?
Sam (Embarrassed.) Oh, right. Me too.
Danny It's been a month since the accident and I still have barely any control! If somebody catches me, (Danny starts sinking into the floor while Sam and Tucker watch) I go from geek to freak around here!
Tucker (Raising an eyebrow) Kinda like what you're doing right now?
Danny suddenly realizes his lower half became intangible causing him to sink and yelps before Sam and Tucker help him out. His feet and lower half return to normal.
Danny Gah, darn it! If my dad can invent something (He begins walking off-screen, Sam and Tucker follow him up the rest of the stairs.) that accidentally made me half-ghost, why can't he invent something that turns me back to normal? (He becomes intangible and walks through a snack machine without paying any attention.)
Sam runs on screen and Danny's body returns to normal.
Sam Danny, your powers make you unique. Unique is good! That's why I'm an ultra recyclo-vegetarian.
Tucker Which means what?
Danny She doesn't eat anything with a face on it.
Tucker Oh, who cares about that stuff? Danny, two words: meat connoisseur. (Sniffs the air around Danny.) Last night, you had Sloppy Joes.
Danny Impressive.
Tucker Meat heightens the senses, and my all-meat streak is fourteen years strong.
Sam ...And it's about to end. The school board finally agreed to try a new cafeteria menu. I wore them down.
Tucker Wait... (Close-up on Tucker's alarmed face.) What did you do?
Cut to the Casper High cafeteria. Sure enough, Sam has made the school board change the menu; a big banner states that this week is "Ultra Recyclo-Vegetarian" week.
The lunch lady gives what looks like grass on bread to a student, and then one to Danny.
Danny What is this? Grass on a bun?
Tucker (Dramatically to Sam:) WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!
Sam Tucker, it's time for a change. (Holds up the "grass on a bun" in her hand.)
Cut to Fenton Works. The shot fades to the ghost portal with the door open. An elderly female ghost dressed in stereotypical lunch lady garb walks out of the portal.
Lunch Lady Ooh! Somebody changed the menu!
The Lunch Lady Ghost phases out through the basement's ceiling while Maddie and Jack are working on another invention, failing to notice the ghost at all.
Maddie Maybe this is a bad idea.
Jack No, it's perfect. When Jazz gets home we suck the ghost out of her (Cut to him striking a pose with the new invention that looks like a vacuum cleaner) with a Fenton Xtractor.
Maddie But what if Jazz isn't a ghost? What if we accidentally hurt her?
Jack Maddie, the Fenton Xtractor doesn't hurt humans...unless it gets in your hair... (He turns it on and begins yelling in pain as the suction rips most of his hair out. After a few seconds, he is calm.) ...See?
Cut back to the Casper High cafeteria. Danny has some of the "grass on a bun" on his spoon and seems to be debating whether to eat it or not.
Danny Don't you think this is a little extreme, Sam?
Sam smiles before someone puts a hand on her shoulder.
Mr. Lancer Ah, Miss Manson.
Cut to Mr. Lancer, an out-of-shape teacher.
Lancer The school board wanted me to personally thank you for ushering in this welcome experiment to our cafeteria.
Tucker (Sniffs the air frantically) Meat. Near.
Tucker looks up at Lancer and sniffs the air around him. Tucker glares at him while the man backs away.
Lancer No, no. The rumors about the new all-steak buffet in the teacher's lounge are completely untrue. (He pulls out a toothpick and uses it, then puts a hand on Sam's shoulder again.) Thanks again. (He leaves.)
Tucker Yeah, thanks again for making us eat garbage, Sam.
Sam It's not garbage. (Holds up the "grass on a bun".) It's recyclable organic matter.
Danny and Tucker It's garbage.
Cut to the lunch lady behind the counter. She gives a shifty-eyed glance around before pulling a hamburger out of her pocket and sneaking away in order to eat it.
The Lunch Lady Ghost phases through the ceiling and looks at the "Ultra Recyclo Veggie Lunch Menu." She glares at it.
Cut to Danny still holding the spoonful of "grass on a bun." Danny gasps and a blue mist suddenly escapes his mouth.
Danny Uh, guys? I've got a problem. (A handful of mud suddenly lands on Danny's head.) UGH!
Dash Baxter (Off-screen) FENTON!
Danny (Turns around and grimaces) ...Make that two problems.
Dash, a jock, storms over to Danny, a plate of what seems to be mud in his hands.
Dash (Angrily:) I ordered three mud pies. Do you know what they gave me? Three mud pies. With mud. From the ground! All because of your girlfriend!
Danny She's not my girlfriend!
Sam I'm not his girlfriend!
Dash grabs Danny by his shirt and lifts him a few inches off the ground.
Dash These are the best years of my life! After high school, it's all downhill for me! How am I supposed to enjoy my glory days eating mud?!
Sam Actually, it's topsoil.
Dash tosses Danny at the table.
Dash Whatever! (Danny lands on the bench. Dash walks over and shoves the plate of mud towards Danny's face.) Eat it. All of it.
Danny seems to be about to go through with eating the topsoil, but blue mist escapes his mouth again.
Cut to a shot of the Lunch Lady Ghost floating behind the lunch counter.
Cut back to Danny and the topsoil.
Danny Uh...uh... (Danny glances down at the plate and picks it up, preparing to toss it.) GARBAGE FIGHT!
He tosses the plate and hits Dash in the face. The other teenagers begin throwing the food as well and chaos ensues.
Sam peeks out from behind a table.
Sam It's not garbage! It's- (Danny's hand suddenly grabs Sam and pulls her back down towards the floor.)
The trio begins crawling away from the cafeteria. While crawling, Danny turns and looks behind him. Dash seems angry while the garbage fight continues behind him.
Dash You're gonna pay for this, Fenton!
Dash is hit on the head again (twice) with mud.
Danny Great. I'm still his favorite.
The trio manages to crawl out the cafeteria door, and Danny and Tucker peek their heads around it to see the Lunch Lady Ghost.
Tucker Huh. Shouldn't be so bad. She looks a little like my grandmother.
Tucker and Danny are now standing in the room and Sam peeks out from behind the door.
Danny Shouldn't she be haunting a bingo hall?
Off-screen, the trio closes the door behind them. The ghost turns around at the sound.
Lunch Lady Hello, children. Can you help me? Today's lunch is meatloaf, but I don't see the meatloaf. Did someone change the menu?
Tucker Yeah. (Points his thumb at Sam.) She did.
Lunch Lady (Becomes extremely angry, with her hair flaming on end and eyes flashing red.) YOU CHANGED THE MENU?! (The trio gasps.) THE MENU HAS BEEN THE SAME FOR FIFTY YEARS! (She yells as green flames surround her and appear circling above her head.)
Danny Get behind me!
Sam and Tucker promptly jump behind Danny.
Sam (Sarcastically:) Wow. I feel safe.
Danny I'm going ghost!
Danny raises his arms in the air and a blue aura surrounds him. The aura splits into two rings that travel vertically across his body. As the rings pass, his clothing changes drastically into his black-and-white Phantom hazmat suit. His hair becomes white and his eyes become green as well.
After transforming, Danny leaps off-screen as Sam and Tucker watch wide-eyed. Danny floats up towards the enraged Lunch Lady Ghost.
Danny (Seeming a little unsure of himself) I command you to...go away!
The Lunch Lady's hand begins to glow and many piles of dishes surrounding a sink begin to glow and float around, before flying off-screen.
Danny makes his body intangible, causing the dishes to pass right through him before hitting the wall behind him. He returns to normal, and smiles at his accomplishment of not being hit.
Cut to Sam. A bunch of dishes are heading right for her, which Danny sees and flies in front of to catch in neat stacks with his hands and arms.
Cut to the Lunch Lady. She uses her powers to send even more dishes flying towards Tucker. Danny catches these dishes in stacks again, as well as a few in his mouth.
Tucker stops wincing after realizing Danny stopped the dishes and smiles. Danny flies off to put the dishes back on the counter, leaving a few dishes still in his mouth. He removes these dishes and stares at his reflection in them.
Danny Well, if this superhero thing doesn't work out, I can have an exciting career as a busboy.
While looking at his reflection in the plates, Danny notices the stoves behind him beginning to move around. He frowns.
Cut to the stoves. The shot pans out to show the still enraged Lunch Lady.
Lunch Lady I control lunch! Lunch is sacred! Lunch has rules! (She suddenly changes back to being calm.) Anybody want cake?
Cut to Sam and Tucker who nod their heads in shock. Cut back to the Lunch Lady's face.
Lunch Lady Too bad! Children who change my menu do not get dessert!
The Lunch Lady phases up out through the ceiling while the three stoves begin to emit green flames. The green flames fire out of the ovens towards Sam and Tucker who dodge out of the way. Cut to Danny who dodges a blast of flames as well.
Cut to the three flaming stoves that now have angry expressions flying towards Tucker and Sam. Cut to Tucker and Sam flinching.
Danny suddenly flies up behind them and grabs their shoulders. He causes his body to glow and makes the entire group intangible. He quickly flies them through the wall out of the kitchen. The stoves hit and crack the wall where the trio just flew through.
Cut to a school hallway, where the trio returns to normal again and rolls out into the middle of the hall. They look behind them in shock.
Danny (Looks down at his hands in amazement) Hey! It worked!
Sam (Irritated) This is the thanks I get for thinking like an individual?
A loud crash is suddenly heard and Tucker and Danny turn to look for the cause. The hallway begins shaking violently and the lights go out. Electricity sparks everywhere before finally going away.
Cut to Danny. He looks worried and then looks at the row of lockers closest to him. Two of the lockers open and a bunch of school supplies come flying out.
Cut to Sam looking on in surprise. Suddenly, a locker next to her does the same thing.
Cut to the hallway, still shaking, now with many lockers opening with school supplies flying out.
The supplies fly to the Lunch Lady, swirling through her and then behind her.
Cut to the trio looking shocked. Cut to Tucker. His eyes suddenly widen and then he sniffs the air.
Tucker (While various meat products fly past him.) Steak...! Rib-eye...! No, porterhouse! Medium-rare!
Cut to the Lunch Lady in the hallway. The meat products begin attaching themselves to her body until she is completely covered and only her mean green eyes are showing.
Tucker But where did it come from? (He glares and turns to look behind him.) Lancer!
A piece of paper hits Tucker in the face.
The scene switches to outside Casper High's Teacher's Lounge.
Lancer (Speaking to several teachers and staff members) Esteemed Casper High faculty, I present your all-steak buffet.
Lancer pulls off a tablecloth covering the supposed buffet, but the meat is missing. Some eager staff members with forks and knives gasp at the sight. Lancer realizes something's wrong and finally looks down at the table in shock. All that's left on the table is a rattling bone. Lancer slams his hands on the table.
Lancer PARADISE LOST!
Cut back to the hallway. The meat-covered Lunch Lady towers over the trio.
Lunch Lady Prepare to learn why meat is the most powerful of the five food groups!
The ghost suddenly loses her rage and goes back to "innocent lunch lady mode," holding up a cookie.
Lunch Lady (Politely:) Cookie?
Sam seems worried and shakes her head "no." The ghost seems a little surprised she was turned down for a split second before reverting back to "evil lunch lady mode."
Lunch Lady (Raises a clawed hand to attack Sam.) Then perish!
Danny slides backwards towards Sam to protect her.
Danny Forget it! The only thing that has an expiration date here is you! (He points at the Lunch Lady.)
Danny's hand begins glowing blue. Looking at his hand he realizes he has accidentally caused himself to revert back to his human self. The blue glow travels from his hand down his body, causing his clothes, hair, and eyes to revert to normal.
Danny Whoops! I didn't mean to do that.
The Lunch Lady roars and grabs Danny within her meaty grasp before sending him flying into Tucker. Both hit the lockers behind them and a pile of papers covers them up.
The Lunch Lady grabs Sam off the ground and flies off down the hallway, taking Sam with her.
Tucker and Danny are still kneeling on the ground.
Tucker Come on! Change back! We gotta go! (Two hands suddenly grab both boys by their collars.)
Lancer You two aren't going (Pulls the boys up off the ground) anywhere.
The shot pans right to show Dash still covered in mud. He is smirking in victory.
Dash Told ya you'd pay Fenton!
Danny looks at Dash then upwards at Lancer before looking off-screen as the screen fades to black.
The screen fades back in to a shot of the outside of Casper High and slowly zooms in before fading into a shot of Lancer's office where Dash, Danny, Tucker, and Mr. Lancer are.
Lancer is sorting through files in his file cabinet while Danny and Tucker sit in chairs in front of his desk. Dash is on the back wall looking pleased with the way things are turning out.
Lancer (Pulls out a file and reads it.) Tucker Foley. Chronic tardiness, talking in class, repeated loitering by the girl's locker room. (Tucker gives a sly smile at this comment. The shot pans right to show Danny's face.) Danny Fenton. Thirty-four dropped beakers in the last month, banned for life from handling all fragile school property, but no severe mischief before today. So, gentlemen, tell me...
Lancer slams the file onto the desk. Cut to a shot of Danny and Tucker. Lancer suddenly appears in the shot and both Danny and Tucker recoil in their chairs.
Lancer (Angrily:) WHY DID THE TWO OF YOU CONSPIRE TO DESTROY THE SCHOOL'S CAFETERIA!?
Danny (Defensively:) Dash started it! He threw-
Cut to a shot of Dash.
Lancer (Off-screen) Four touchdown passes in the last game is thereby exempt from scorn.
Dash looks proud at this achievement. The shot pans right to show Lancer's face.
Lancer You two, however, are not. I'll map out your punishment when I return.
Danny and Tucker look at each other. Cut to the door to the office where Lancer and Dash are standing.
Lancer Mr. Baxter, watch the door.
Lancer leaves down the hallway as Dash smirks before closing the door. Danny and Tucker stand up from their seats.
Tucker We gotta find Sam. For some reason, I feel like I got her kidnapped.
Danny Maybe because you told the ghost she changed the menu? How about that?
Tucker suddenly sniffs the air.
Tucker That steak is still in the building. 200 yards, tops.
Danny glances over at a wall of TVs showing different security camera views. The first view is of what seems to be a storage area with some boxes of meat. The second view is of an exit from the school. The next view is of an exit from a storage area that has boxes of meat, and the final view is only of a bunch of boxes with meat in them. A trail of juice from the meat leads off the screen.
Danny Check it out. (Points at the screen) Meat trail.
Danny backs away from the cameras and transforms into his ghost self. As Tucker walks into the shot, Danny grabs his arm and turns them both intangible and they go through the floor.
Tucker Whoa!
The door opens and Lancer appears carrying a broom, Dash right behind him.
Lancer Gentlemen, your punishment will be-- (Lancer and Dash's eyes widen as they realize Danny and Tucker's chairs are empty. Angrily.) --WORSE THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE!
Cut to a shot of the storage area Danny saw earlier on the TV screen. The shot pans over revealing the silhouettes of Danny and Tucker at the other end of the room. Tucker looks elated as he steps into the room.
Tucker Sweet mother of mutton! (Tucker quickly latches himself onto the wall of the boxes of meat lovingly.) I'd dreamed of it, but...I never thought I'd live to see it!
Danny How is it that I have the ghost powers and you're the weird kid?
Both of their eyes widen as they hear cackling nearby. They peer around the corner of a stack of boxes and see the Lunch Lady.
Lunch Lady My dear child... (Cut to a shot of the Lunch Lady floating before Sam who is trapped neck deep in a large pile of meat.) Meat is good for kids! (Cut to a shot of Sam, looking irritated, struggling to get free of the pile of meat.) It helps them grow and makes them smile! Why won't you eat it?
The Lunch Lady offers Sam a chicken leg.
Sam We don't need meat. That's fact!
The Lunch Lady suddenly reverts back to her evil lunch lady mode, with wind blowing around her.
Lunch Lady SILENCE! (Points at Sam.) You need discipline, manners, respect! You know where that comes from? MEAT! (The wind stops suddenly and the Lunch Lady reverts back again. Politely.) Chicken? Or fish?
Cut to Danny and Tucker.
Danny I'll take care of the ghost. You just find a way to get Sam out of that pile of meat!
Tucker (Pulls a fork and knife out of nowhere.) Waaaay ahead of you.
Danny flies off and prepares to punch the ghost. The Lunch Lady turns around surprised, but notices Danny too late.
The Lunch Lady is sent flying and crashing into a nearby wall before collapsing to the ground. Danny lands in front of her and she glares at him.
Cut to Sam. She stops looking in Danny's direction and then looks at Tucker who is cutting away pieces of the meat with his knife.
Tucker (Enthusiastically.) I'll have you free in no time, Sam!
Sam (Frowns in disbelief.) You've gotta be kidding me.
Cut to Danny crouched on the ground. He jumps up and somersaults in the air before preparing to kick the ghost. The Lunch Lady catches his foot in her hand right before he hits her. Still holding his foot, the Lunch Lady dangles a surprised Danny upside-down.
Lunch Lady Don't you see? This is why you need meat! You're skin and (Tosses Danny off-screen.) bones!
As Danny is sent flying through the air he makes himself intangible, bumping the floor a little and going halfway through a nearby wall before falling to the ground, his waist up on one side of the wall and the rest on the other side.
Cut back to the Lunch Lady. Her hand glows green as she summons shish-kebabs from a box, their pointed ends heading straight for Danny.
Danny, who is now out of the wall, sees this and makes his body split in two. The meat passes through the stretched intangible area of his body he created.
Danny smiles upon realizing this new power but the smiles quickly fades as he looks at what the ghost is up to now.
The Lunch Lady yells and summons meat out of all of the boxes onscreen. Danny pieces himself together again and watches the meat go flying towards the ghost.
Meanwhile, Tucker is about to take a bite of meat but the piece as well as the meat pile that was covering Sam goes flying off towards the ghost.
Cut to the Lunch Lady as the meat soars all around her before attaching to her forming the huge meat monster she was earlier. She fires a meat fist at Danny, which captures him in her grasp.
Sam and Tucker run onscreen looking up at Danny in the ghost's grasp. Cut to Tucker.
Tucker (Strikes a determined pose, fork and knife handy.) Help's on the way, buddy!
The Lunch Lady sends Danny flying off-screen. Danny yells and turns intangible, causing him to pass through a wall.
Cut to the ghost looming over Sam and Tucker. She growls at them loudly. Cut to Sam and Tucker looking scared.
Tucker Run?
Sam Run.
Sam and Tucker yell as they head for the door, but the ghost sends a pile of meat that blocks their exit, knocking both of them off-screen.
The shot pans right to show Danny holding the back of his head and he phases partly back into the room. Sam and Tucker continue yelling as they run past him. Danny gets a determined look on his face and goes flying after them. Cut to Sam and Tucker running as the Lunch Lady continues to gain on them.
The Lunch Lady makes fists with her hands and prepares to slam down on Sam and Tucker, but Danny quickly flies down and grabs the still running Sam and Tucker in his arms before turning all of them intangible and flying through a wall.
The Lunch Lady is surprised at this and can't stop herself in time and the meat splatters all against the wall. Cut to the wall outside. Danny, Sam, and Tucker phase through it and continue floating through the air, the intangibility disappearing. Danny looks tired.
Sam Gee, Danny. Fighting meat monsters, flying through walls...You must be exhausted.
Danny (Defensively.) What? Of course not! What would give you that idea? (Trails off.)
The trio falls to the ground as Danny passes out from exhaustion. Sam and Tucker land sitting upright while Danny lies face down on the ground unconscious. He returns back to his human self. Sam and Tucker look at each other.
Cut to Fenton Works. The shot fades in to Jazz opening the front door.
Jazz (Puzzled:) Mom? Dad?
Jazz takes two steps into the room and the door suddenly slams closed behind her. Two smoke bombs roll in front of her covering the scene up with white smoke.
Jack (Hidden by the smoke.) Now, Maddie! Hit her! I'm moving in! (Jazz shrieks.) Get my back!
The smoke finally clears to show Jazz looking severely irritated with her arms crossed as her parents have latched themselves onto her legs, the Fenton Xtractor attached to the bottom part of her hair. Maddie and Jack let go of her legs. Jazz walks off, the Xtractor still on her hair.
Jazz This is all going in the memoir.
Maddie and Jack get up off the ground. The shot pans to the front door that opens and reveals Sam and Tucker carrying the still unconscious Danny.
Tucker Hey, Mr. and Mrs. Fenton! What a school day! Poor Danny nodded off. We figured we'd just carry him all the way home and tuck him into bed (Cut to Tucker and Sam carrying Danny upstairs.) without any parental interaction whatsoever.
Sam Don't get up! We know where to go. Bye!
Cut back to Danny's parents.
Jack (Looks up at the ceiling in thought.) Hmm...
Maddie Jack, Danny is not a ghost.
Jack You're right. (Cut to a scene of Jazz down a hallway trying to get the Xtractor off her hair. Cut to a close-up of Jack's face.) Jazz is.
The screen fades out and into a shot of Danny sleeping on top of his bed. He suddenly wakes up with a yelp.
Danny (Confused:) Ah! Aah! Wha? What's going on?
Cut to Tucker and Sam looking down at him.
Tucker You passed out. We took you home. You've been asleep for four days!
Danny sits up quickly.
Danny (Alarmed.) Four days?!
Tucker (Chuckling.) Nah. It's only been a couple hours.
Danny lays back down, still a little shaken. Sam puts her hands on her hips.
Sam Knock it off, Tucker. This is the second time today your carelessness almost got him killed.
Tucker Me? I almost got him killed? The only reason this happened is because you had to be unique. You had to take the meat away! (Sam crosses her arms and turns away from him. As Tucker storms off.) And I'm going to get it back!
Sam (Yelling angrily.) You want to change that menu back? (Sam goes over to the door to the bedroom and yells after Tucker.) YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH ME TO DO IT! (Sam leaves, slamming the door closed behind her. Danny is still lying on his bed, still a little shocked as to what just happened.)
Danny Oh well. I'm sure everything will be back to normal by tomorrow.
The screen fades into a shot of outside Casper High where a few students seem to be looking at something off-screen. Danny walks into the shot, a look of disbelief on his face.
Danny (Exasperated.) Or not. Maybe it'll be worse.
Cut to a panning shot of what is clearly a bunch of meat lovers complete with meat balloons, people dressed as meat, among various other things. On a stage some girls are dancing in hot dog outfits. The girls dance offstage and Tucker appears carrying a microphone in his hand.
Tucker What do we want!?
Meat Lovers MEAT!
Cut to a shot of Tucker looking triumphant.
Tucker When do we want it!?
Cut to a shot of the determined-looking crowd.
Meat Lovers NOW!
Cut back to Danny standing behind the crowd. He looks over at the other side of the protest.
Cut to a panning shot of the vegetarian equivalent of the meat protest side full of what seems to be full of hippies, laid-back people, and goths. Sam is standing on top of a school bus yelling into a microphone while carrying a sign that reads "NOW!"
Sam and Veggie Lovers (Chanting.) VEGGIES NOW! VEGGIES FOREVER! VEGGIES NOW!
Cut to a shot of Sam on top of the school bus looking very determined.
Sam and Veggie Lovers (Continuing to chant.) VEGGIES FOREVER!
Sam appears to glance over in the direction of Danny.
Cut to a shot of Danny that zooms out to show Sam and Tucker standing on opposite sides of him. Sam and Tucker are glaring at each other.
Danny (With disbelief.) You guys put together two protests in one night?
Tucker Meat-eaters, Danny. Always ready to fight. And our high-protein diets give us the energy we need to do it quickly.
Sam Ultra Recyclo-vegetarians are always ready to protest. And because we don't have waste time cooking our food, we can move even faster.
Cut to the trio, Danny still stuck in the middle of the two quarreling teens. A crowd is behind them seeming to watch this event unfold.
Danny Don't you guys think this is a little extreme?
Tucker (Continuing to glare.) No choice, buddy!
Cut to Danny and Tucker.
Tucker You're either with me!
Cut to Sam.
Sam (Glaring.) Or you're against him!
Cut to Danny. Sam and Tucker suddenly poke their heads into the shot and Danny ducks a little.
Sam and Tucker So whose side are you on!?
A wind suddenly starts blowing and the sky turns gray. Sam and Tucker's eyes widen at this. Cut to a shot of the trio and the protest area. Cackling is heard as the wind continues to blow.
Cut to Danny and Tucker. Danny's ghost sense (the blue mist) goes off.
Cut back to the protest area. The crowd looks bewildered and confused. A voice yells angrily as a meat truck suddenly has its contents fly out of it in various directions.
Cut to the trio. They watch as the meat flies around before coming back towards the meat truck. The meat swirls around overhead.
Cut to a shot of Danny that pans out showing the rest of the crowd, Sam, and Tucker looking upward at what's going on.
Cut to the meat. The meat forms the meat monster the Lunch Lady Ghost was the previous day.
Lunch Lady It's lunchtime!
Cut to the protesters from the meat protest running off-screen while screaming in terror. The next shot is the same, only with the vegetarian protesters.
Cut to Tucker.
Tucker (Dismayed.) Meat! Why have you betrayed me!?
Cut to Danny continuing to look upwards at the monster. He then looks around off-screen.
Danny Guys, time to makeup! Now!
Cut to the trio. Sam and Tucker hug although they still look furious with one another as Danny transforms behind their cover.
Sam and Tucker breakaway from each other revealing Danny as Danny Phantom.
Cut to a shot of Danny running before flying off-screen.
Cut to a shot of Jazz talking with a goth sitting at a picnic table away from all of the chaos.
Jazz Spike, you have to open up to your parents! Be true to yourself and them!
The shot pans over towards Spike who is wearing all black, has a mohawk, and is covered in piercings.
Jazz (Off-screen) Tell them how you feel! I mean, it's not like they're gonna attack you or anything.
Jazz's eyes widen as a green net suddenly appears from the right-hand side of the screen and captures her in it. She yells in surprise. Spike watches as Jazz in the net is dragged off-screen.
Cut to Jack reeling in the net while standing behind some bushes.
Jazz I've got her! (Maddie pokes out from the bushes. Jack looks at Maddie.) And the Fenton Grappler is working like a charm!
Maddie appears to be skeptical.
Maddie I don't understand. (Cut to Maddie.) If Jazz is a ghost, why hasn't she just phased through the net?
Jazz Because I am not a (Throws the net off of her.) GHOST! You've ambushed me, suffocated me with smoke, and what's worse: I was pulled away from Spike before he had his breakthrough! What do you have to say for yourselves!?
Cut to Jack and Maddie. Jack suddenly holds the Fenton Thermos out in front of him.
Jack Eat hot Fenton Thermos, ghost gal!
Jack and Maddie look down at the Thermos as nothing but a spark flashes and disappears. Cut to Jazz looking down at the Thermos. She then looks up and glares. Cut to Jack and Maddie. Jack is looking at the Thermos with scrutiny.
Jack Hmph. (Shakes the Thermos back and forth.) Darn thing still doesn't work!
Cut to Danny looking alarmed. The shot pans out and turns around revealing Danny in front of the now humongous meat covered Lunch Lady. The ghost gives a ferocious yell before attempting to punch Danny. Danny flies out of the fist's way. The ghost then tries slapping Danny with the other hand, but Danny dodges again. She then tries an uppercut which Danny also dodges.
Cut to Danny. He kicks the ghost hard and knocks her over.
Cut to the ghost landing hard onto the ground.
Cut to Sam and Tucker smiling as they watch this.
Tucker He really is getting better.
Cut to Danny looking downwards. He smiles but then frowns as he turns his attention back to the ghost. The ghost punches him and Danny goes sailing off-screen.
Cut to Sam and Tucker. Sam runs towards the right-hand side of the screen.
Sam I sure hope he can take a punch!
Cut to a passenger airliner flying overhead. Danny is sent flying upwards towards it.
Cut to inside the plane to a businessman and a flight attendant.
Flight Attendant (Smiling.) There's your water, sir!
The businessman and the flight attendant's eyes widen as Danny suddenly phases through and up out of the ceiling.
Cut to the businessman and flight attendant. Both watch as Danny phases through the floor again, grabbing the businessman's water cup out of his hand.
Danny (While phasing through.) Thanks!
Cut to Danny flying back towards the ghost, the water cup in his hand. He splashes the water on his face before the cup aside.
Cut to Jack and Maddie. Both are looking at Jazz.
Cut to Jazz looking irritated with her arms crossed in front of her.
Cut to Jack. He suddenly smiles before looking at the Thermos in his hand.
Jack (Serious.) I, Jack Fenton, from this day forth (Cut to Danny flying towards the school.) do hereby turn my back on ghosts.
Danny slams into the ghost sending meat flying everywhere.
Cut to Jazz, Jack, and Maddie as an explosion lets off orange smoke in the distance.
Cut to a large crater as meat falls to the ground. Danny weakly pulls himself out of the crater.
Lunch Lady (Off-screen) Oh, dear!
Danny looks up surprised at this.
Cut to the Lunch Lady standing before Danny who is still partly in the crater.
Lunch Lady What a mess! (Close-up on the Lunch Lady's face. She looks mildly worried.) Are you okay?
Cut to Danny and the ghost. Danny finally pulls himself out of the crater and rubs his left arm a bit.
Danny Yeah. I think so.
Cut to the ghost with a small smile on her face. She suddenly reverts back to evil lunch lady mode.
Lunch Lady TOUGH! BECAUSE YOU BEING OKAY IS NOT PART OF MY BALANCED DIET OF DOOM!
Cut to the crater. Meat suddenly pours out of it forming five small piles in front of Danny.
Cut to the meat piles. The piles suddenly form into little meat monsters.
Cut to Danny who flies off-screen.
The meat monsters jump off-screen after him.
Cut to Danny. He does a flying kick that slices through all of the meat monsters before landing back onto the ground.
Danny looks upward only to see the meat monsters form themselves again.
Cut to Danny who stands up from the ground.
Danny Well, I wasn't expecting that!
Two blue rings suddenly appear at his waist and travel over his body reverting him back to normal. Danny looks down at himself in surprise.
Danny Or that!
Cut to Danny. The meat monsters appear and grab him. Danny tries fighting them off but they keep their hold on him and fly off-screen with him. Two of the monster let go of him while three dangle Danny upside down by his legs. Danny yells.
Cut to Jack and Maddie. Jack is looking down at the Fenton Thermos.
Jack Well, this Thermos can't trap ghosts because ghosts don't exist. (Jack tosses the Thermos off-screen as Maddie and Jazz look on in shock.)
Cut to Danny continuing to be dangled by his legs. The Thermos suddenly whacks him in the face and he catches it.
Danny The Fenton Thermos! But how am I going to get it to work!?
Cut to the three meat monsters dangling Danny. They suddenly let go of him and toss him towards the ground. Danny yells as he plummets towards the ground.
Danny Change back! (Determined.) CHANGE BACK! (A light flashes and Danny becomes Danny Phantom.)
Cut to the five meat monsters. They look surprised and then become furious before going off-screen to chase after him.
Cut to Jazz, Maddie, and Jack. Danny suddenly falls and phases through the ground between Jasmine and her parents.
Danny (While phasing through:) Thanks for the Thermos!
Jack (Happily.) HAH! Ghost Kid! I was right! (Cut to Jack standing in front of Jazz triumphantly. He begins hopping around. Sing-song voice.) ~You were wrong~ (Cut to Jack clearly looking very happy.) ~Ghosts exist!~ (Laughs.) I never doubted it for a second!
Cut to Jazz, Maddie, and Jack. Jazz doesn't look pleased. Jack laughs and a large amount of meat lands on top of them.
Cut to the Lunch Lady. Danny suddenly phases out from the ground, the Fenton Thermos in his hand.
Cut to a shot of the Fenton Thermos.
Cut to the Lunch Lady.
Lunch Lady (Angrily.) NO! Soup's not on today's menu!
Danny (Determined.) I'm changing the menu! Permanently!
He grabs the top of the Thermos.
Danny (Small voice.) Please work?
He knocks the top off of the Thermos and aims the Thermos towards the Lunch Lady.
Danny I hope I'm right!
A blue aura surrounds Danny and then the Thermos that powers up before releasing a stream of energy from it, knocking Danny backwards a little bit.
The energy forms a net that surrounds the surprised Lunch Lady and traps her.
Lunch Lady (Struggling) NOOOO!!
The energy swirls and sucks the Lunch Lady Ghost into the Thermos and Danny (who has reverted back to normal) closes the lid back onto the Thermos. Danny smiles before looking off-screen.
Cut to Sam and Tucker who were trapped under one of the protest balloons. Danny helps Sam up.
Sam What happened? Where's the ghost?
Cut to Danny holding the Thermos. He looks down at it while smiling.
Danny My parents have their moments!
Danny's eyes widen suddenly as he hears a faint beeping noise and he hides the Thermos behind him.
Fenton Finder (Off-screen) Ghost directly ahead.
Cut to Danny, Sam, and Tucker. The meat covered Jack and Maddie walk onscreen, Jack holding the Fenton Finder in front of him.
Fenton Finder You would have to be some sort of moron to not notice the ghost (Cut to a shot of Danny standing in front of the Fenton Finder. He gives a weak smile.) directly ahead.
Cut to Jack and Maddie. Both look up from the Fenton Finder towards Danny. Cut to Danny.
Danny Aw, sorry dad. (Points behind him with his thumb.) You just missed him.
Jack We got a runner!
Jack and Maddie run offscreen revealing Jazz with her arms crossed.
Jazz (Irritated.) Great. (Walks off-screen.) Back to square one.
Cut to Danny, Sam, and Tucker.
Tucker So, you're not gonna tell 'em?
Danny Nah. (Cut to Danny.) I think I might've finally figured out what these powers are for. They make me-
A hand suddenly grabs Danny by the shoulder. His eyes widen. He glances upward.
Cut to Mr. Lancer who looks furious.
Lancer In a world of trouble.
The shot fades in to outside Casper High at nighttime. Mr. Lancer appears with a megaphone in his hand.
Lancer Manson! (Cut to Danny, Sam, and Tucker who seem to have cleanup duty and are cleaning up all the mess from the protests.) Pick up that T-bone!
Sam (Disgusted.) With my hands?
Lancer Foley! Pick up that Turfwich!
Tucker (Equally disgusted.) With my (Picks one up by the corner.) hands?
Cut to Mr. Lancer who seems pleased. He takes a bite out of a chicken leg before turning around and walking off-screen.
Cut to Danny sweeping up some meat. The shot pans out to show Dash watching him sweep looking pleased while leaning on the garbage bin where the meat has been being collected.
Cut to Dash who laughs.
Cut to Danny. He looks over at Dash and then goes to the side of the garbage bin. He grabs the side and his hand glows blue, turning the garbage bin intangible.
The intangible garbage bin dumps all of its contents onto Dash who falls over and is buried under a huge pile of meat. The garbage bin reverts back to normal.
Dash pokes his head out from under the meat pile.
Dash FENTON! A little help!?
Cut to Danny looking pleased.
Danny Whatever you say, Dash! (Looks at the camera.) Whatever you say. (Danny's eyes glow green as the screen closes in on them.)
