Mrs. Lexi: Make sure to write your essay about solar energy tonight!!!
Lucy/Lavender/Lilly: We can help you!
Lori: Thank you…
Lucy: That’s what friends are for.
Lavender: Definitely girly!!!
Lilly: Of course Lori, we’re the L team!
Extra: L for losers.
Mrs. Lexi: Unexceptable, detention missy!

Mrs. Lexi: Now!
Extra: Hmmph, that’s mean, detention for that?😡
Mrs Lexi: Yes, as a matter of fact.
Extra: (Extra: Meanest teacher ever…
Mrs. Lexi: Detention
The bell rings.
Mrs. Lexi: Time to go.
Lori checks out.
Mrs. Lexi: Finally, some peace and quiet. When I get home I want pizza and a cold shower.
She goes home and flops on a blade of grass.
Lori: What will I possibly do? I bet you don’t even know anything about this, Sunny.
Sunny: As a matter of fact, I do know a whole lot about it.(muttering)I was the best at that kind of stuff at dog school. I’ll teach you all about it.
Lori: You spoke!!!
Sunny: As a matter of fact, I did.
Now go to sleep, it will help you think darling.
Mrs. Lexi: Get off my lawn!!!
Sunny: Come on Lori.
WE ENTER A SKY.
Sunny: Hello again Lori!!! So what type of energy are you learning about again?
Lori: I, I, I,
Sunny: Say it to the swirling vortex thingy, not me.
Lori: Aah, is that thing going to teach me about SOLAR ENERGY?
She gets sucked into a portal to a birds eye view of someone named Edmond Becquerel.
She doesn’t know it now but Edmond Becquerel discovered solar energy.
Lori: Who are you?
Edmond: My name is Edmond Becquerel. Do I know you? !?
Lori: No. Sunny, why do I see a guy that looks eighteen or nineteen?
Edmond: I’m eighteen, my birthday is tomorrow;March twenty-fourth.
Lori: I thought it was April.
My birthday is also tomorrow.
Edmond: What’s your name?
Lori: Lori, quick question, where are we?
Edmond: Versailles of course.
Lori: Oh, and where is that?
Edmond: In Kentucky.
Lori: Ooh there’s a castle here.
Edmond: I would show you, if there were time of course.
Lori: Aw… Dang it!!!
Edmond: Well, maybe.
Lori: Yay!!!
Edmond: I said maybe.
Lori: Still, in my case maybe it means yes!!!
Edmond: Well anyway…
Lori: Wow, it’s hot.
Edmond: I’ve been trying to figure out how it gets hot.
Sunny: Edmond..Photovoltaic effect….
Edmond: Huh?
Lori: So.. What about it?
Edmond: I know it has something to do with the sun and its rays but other than that I have no idea what photovoltaic effect is.
Sunny: Agh, too far back.
Swirling vortex appears again and Sunny and Lori appear next to
Edmond at the age of 20.
Lori: (annoyed) Now where are we?..
Sunny: Hi Edmond, can you teach us about solar energy?
Edmond: You look a` lot like someone I met when I was 18.So.. Ok??
Lori: Thank you
Edmond: Solar energy is a type of energy that comes from the sun. There are things called
solar panels that catch UV light and turn it into energy.
Lori:Thank you for the information but I must get home,my mother may be worried about me.
Sunny: Oh, sweet sweet Lori, time goes slower in the time travel dimension!
It has only been a few seconds since we left in reality
but we should get back. We did get a lot of information.
Lori: I guess.
Sunny: Oh no, there is a glitch in time. We can’t get back.
The swirling vortex spits out a puzzled Lavender.
Lori: Lavender? What are you doing here?
Lavender: My bunny Sugarplum told me to tell a black hole my type
of energy and I did. I was transported here somehow.
Sugarplum: Hi Sun-Sun!!!
Lori: You have a nickname. Things just keep getting weirder.
Sunny: Hi Sugar-girl.
Lavender: Where are we?
Lori: In Kentucky.
Sugarplum: How we got here is Lavender was listening to classical music
. She only does that when she’s upset. I asked what was wrong.
She said she wanted to help Lori, but she knew nothing about solar energy.
I told her to go to sleep and she sadly agreed. She said she was tired anyway.
We saw a portal, and I said for her not to worry
‘cause this happened to her mom and she learned quite a lot, but in her case,
it was about hydroelectric energy. We saw you two and got excited and
then I started telling you about this!!! (Sugarplum pants for ten seconds or less) Got it?
Lavender: Yes, Sugarplum.
Sugarplum: So Lori, was it, learn anything useful for Lavender?
Sunny: I’ve got it! We should go back in time and show her.
Sugarplum: I’ve got it!!! We should go back in time and show Lavender!!!
Lori: Good idea Sugarplum!
Lavender: Yeah, Sugar!
Sunny:(frustrated groan)
The vortex appears again! Out spits Lucy, Lilly, and Lily’s pet fish Xinnie
Xinnie: Humph. No water…
Lilly: Can you survive without water?
Xinnie: What, no. I was just hoping for more of a watery wonderland.
Sugarplum: Whatevs.
Lilly: We could have played together this whole time yet you pretended you would die from it!
Xinnie: That’s not true…
Lucy: Don’t mess with Lilly you helpless little fish!
Sunny: Stop it you two! Xinnie never lies about that.
The vortex appears and spits out Mrs. Lexi and the extra.
Mrs. Lexi: Hi, Lucy, Lori, Lilly, and Lavender!!!
The Ls: Hi, Mrs. Lexi!!!
Sunny: Hi
Mrs.Lexi: A TALKING DOG !!??!? What are the other animals gonna talk too!?
Xinnie, Sugarplum :yup
MRS LEXI FAINTS
Sugarplum: wake up!
Sunny: I got the system working! Well.. come on go put her in her bed! It won’t be here much longer!
Edmond :😐I have been here the whole time. I’m going home.(whisper) I swear this world just gets weirder
Lucy:So…What are we going to do now?
Sunny: We could see Charles Fritts?
Sugarplum: We could go talk to Charles Fritts!
Sunny: 😡
Sugarplum:😏
Xinnie: Good idea Sugarplum!
Sunny: Hey!
XINNIE OPENS A DARK PURPLE VORTEX AND WHISPERS TO IT
Xinnie: (Whisper) Take us to a place long ago, a place and time in which it is snowy, time and in the month of July 1889
SOLAR. PURPLE VORTEX GROWS SMALLER AND EVERYTHING SWIRLS AND THEY END UP IN CHARLES FRITTS’S HOUSE
CHARLES FRITTS WALKS IN WHISTLING
Xinnie: Hey Charles!
Lilly: You know him!?
Xinnie: Yeah. Where do you think I go at night?
Lilly: Behind the rocks?
Xinnie: I don’t have rocks in my fish tank.
Charles: So I’m guessing they are who you have been talking about?
Xinnie: yup, they want to learn about solar energy and solar panels.
Charles: Wait.. what grade are you guys in?
Lori, Lilly, Lavender, Lucy,: 4th
Charles: Oh, you should know this by now! They’re already teaching some of it!
Sugarplum: Can you just get to the point?
Charles: Geesh,(Sugarplum makes a “Really?” face) OK. I created solar panels because I thought I could make a change by turning sunlight into electricity. Solar energy is a source of energy that comes from the sun and is renewable. Solar panels catch light because of PV cells.
Xinnie: Thank you Charles, but we must be going now.
Charles: Oh! Yeah, it’s kinda late I understand.
All: Bye! Thank you!
THEY WALK OUTSIDE TO A NEARBY PLAYGROUND
Sugarplum: Ugh, finally, that’s over.
Xinnie:Sugarplum! Charles is a close friend of mine and has been looking forward to seeing you!
Lavender, Lucy: Yeah Sugar, actually that was kind of mean.
Sunny: Yeah you really need to stop acting like this. You always act like this whenever I see you.
SUGARPLUM GIVES A GUILTY LOOK
Sugarplum: Ok, I see that now. I will try to be better.
Sunny: Thank you. See Lori, this is why I was the best at solar energy at dog school.
SUNNY OPENS A COTTON CANDY PINK PORTAL AND EVERYONE GOES THROUGH AND ENDS UP WHERE THEY WERE WHEN THEY LEFT
Sunny: Well Lori, I hope you learned enough about solar energy; Now goodnight.
LORI GOES TO BED AND THE
NEXT MORNING WRITES HER ESSAY
Lori:Bye Sunny!
LORI WALKS TO SCHOOL
Mrs.Lexi: Good morning class! I hope you did your essay. If you did please put it in the bucket!
Lori: (gulp)I hope I did good..
Lucy: I bet we all did.
LORI TURNS IN HER ESSAY AND THE DAY FLIES BY
Lori: SUNNY!!!
Sunny: What?
Lori: I,I got an A+ WITH a smiley face!!
Sunny: That’s great! I hope when you grow up I can help your child too.
