#588: Pep Rally explain

[Ponytail stands in front of crowded bleachers (with only Cueballs in it), waving pompoms high in the air.]
Ponytail: Lakeview High is the best!
Crowd: Yeah!
Voice #1: Wait, why?
[Zoom on Ponytail, now with her hands and pompoms down.]
Ponytail: What?
Voice #1 (off-screen): A guy on the North High football team helped me rebuild my deck.
Voice #1 (off-screen): It seems ungrateful to presume we’re better.
[Same picture with Ponytail now just listening.]
Voice #1 (off-screen): I mean, school districts are just based on zip codes.
Voice #2 (off-screen): Their principal donated a kidney to my dad.
[Ponytail looks down, holding up her pompoms.]
Voice #1 (off-screen): I’m texting with my friend there now. He says it’s okay, and we’re invited to their events if we want.
Voice #1 (off-screen): But he sounded kind of hurt.
Voice #2 (off-screen): Why are we doing this rally, again?
