(Jessics has transformed into Mars and then changed her costume to the gymnastics costume, allowing her to cheat in the fight. Lisa has noticed this and gone to change into Moon) JESSICA (cont) : So who's up next? Janey turns to Bart-chan. JANEY : With Lisa gone, I suppose it'll be you. BART-CHAN (dreading) : Do I have to? JESSICA (gloating) : Sorry "Bartina" but Yes. You. Do. (laughs) MOON-LISA (OS) : STOP RIGHT THERE! SFX: DOORS BEING THROWN OPEN. The lights dim in the gymnasium. Whip pan over to the main doors - Moon-Lisa stands bathed in the light from the corridor, wearing the pink gymnastics uniform and calling a ball under her arm. MOON-LISA : Even though Rhythmic Gymnastics Martial Arts seems to be the preferred activity of psychotic little rich girls, you've proved yourself as psychotic as any of them! Your well-disguised cheating has profaned the noble sport of little girls beating each other up with dance and balancing equipment, and for that I can't forgive you! (poses) I am the pretty suited gymnast (pose) of balance and flexibility (pose) Lisa! (pose) In the name of Mary Lou Retton (pose) I’ll punish you! (pose, pose) Laura and Allison stare at each other. LAURA: That speech... ALLISON : She's hasn't... Jazzy and Heroic music strikes up in the gymnasium as Moon-Lisa walks toward the ring. A spotlight follows her. When she gets near the ring she launches into a single high jump, enough to carry her over the ropes and into the ring where she makes a perfect landing. Laura puts her palm on her forehead. LAURA (resigned) : She has... MILHOUSE (OS) : Well, it looks like Lisa Simpson is bringing a personal grudge into this match, Willy! WILLY (OS) : Ahm no surprised. Ah heird this match is t' decide who gits a pig - now that's a mighty good prize howevir ye look at it! Ah practically wish ah cid be in t'ere mesel! CUT TO : RING Moon-Lisa and Mars-Jessica stare down each other. Mars-Jessica looks at Moon-Lisa critically. MARS-JESSICA (quietly) : Well, looks like you figured out the same thing I did, "Lisa." MOON-LISA (angry) : I can't believe you'd try to cheat like this. You could have blown everyone's cover. MARS-JESSICA : Speak for yourself. You've transformed too... MOON-LISA : Only to stop you cheating. Ms Hoover gets in the ring and approaches the girls. HOOVER : Okay, break it up, go to your corners. The two girls glare daggers at each other one last time, before heading to their corners. CUT TO : VIEW OF WHOLE RING Ms Hoover walks around in the centre of the ring. HOOVER: Fifth round. In the blue corner… uh… She stares at Moon-Lisa for a moment, looking confused, and then remembers to glance down at the piece of paper in her hands. It has the names of all the entrants on it. (except Usagi) Hoover reads a from the paper. HOOVER (struggling) : Lisa… um… Simpson. Yeah. And in the red corner. She looks at Jessica and freezes up again. Hoover glares at the piece of paper angrily – the words on the paper seem to be becoming blotched. HOOVER (snappily) : Jessica Lovejoy! Lovejoy! She fumes slightly to herself, obviously embarrassed. HOOVER : thank god it’s only going out on Fox. Okay… (loudly) Fight! Moon-Lisa and Mars-Jessica immediately spring forward, throwing their balls at each other. Jessica twists in midair to dodge Lisa’s ball. Lisa has a foot on the ground and rolls under Jessica’s ball. The balls continue and each of them strikes a turnbuckle. Jessica’s ball bounces upwards at an angle of about 45 degrees, Lisa’s ball bounces down toward the mat. As soon as she lands from her twist, Jessica spots Lisa’s ball bouncing downwards and pounces on it. Lisa leaps upwards to catch Jessica’s ball in midair. Jessica scoops up the ball and slings it at Lisa in one smooth motion. Lisa twists in midair and instantly uses the ball she just grabbed to deflect the one Jessica threw. Jessica’s ball bounces off and strikes a rafter in the roof. Lisa throws her ball at Jessica as she falls, but Jessica just tilts her head and the ball sails past her - it bounces off the mat and sails over to the back wall of the gymnasium. The two girls glare at each other, and warily circle around to their respective corners. Lisa waves her hand at Janey. MOON-LISA (aside to Janey) : Janey, I need a new ball. (pause) Janey? She looks at the girls in her corner. Janey, Sherri, Terri and Bart-chan are all in shock, staring at her with their mouths open. Lisa looks around. The entire crowd is amazed and deathly silent. Mrs Krabappel’s cigarette has fallen out of her mouth and is smouldering on her skirt. MOON-LISA (to self) : Uh… maybe we went too far. She spots something out of the corner of her eye and quickly flips backwards. A blue ball whizzes past her ear. MOON-LISA : HEY! MARS-JESSICA (OS) : Better pay attention! Lisa turns her head and sees Jessica dashing toward her, with a red ball in her hand. Jessica leaps into the air and spikes the ball down at Lisa, who rolls out of the way. The blue ball Jessica threw rebounds off the gymnasium wall (leaving a crater) and returns to the mat. Lisa jumps up into it’s path and punches it toward Jessica,.who backflips out if it’s path as soon as she lands. Both balls have left the ring and Lisa dashes over to her corner. MOON-LISA : JANEY! BALL! NOW! Janey seems to snap out of her daze and hands Lisa a ball. As soon as Lisa has it and Janey’s hands are back behind the ropes, a ball rebounds against the turnbuckle next to Janey's hands. Lisa dodges it though and it bounces back to Jessica who spins it cockily on her finger. MOON-LISA (Outraged) : Hey! You almost hit Janey! MARS-JESSICA : But I didn’t. MOON-LISA (fumes) : Agh! How can you be so reckless? Jessica just grins devilishly. The ball she spins on her finger glows red and smokes slightly. Lisa gulps, and glares at it. MOON-LISA : You wouldn’t… Jessica throws the ball at Lisa, leaving a slim trail of fire behind it. Lisa leaps backwards and flips in midair, landing on the turnbuckle. She holds her ball in both hands. Jessica’s ball starts to leave the ring, but she draws her hand back and the ball curves in midair, returning to her palm. As Jessica catches it Lisa charges up her own ball so that it shines with it's own inner light, before slinging the ball at where Jessica stands. Jessica deflects the ball with her own one, knocking it away at a 45 degree angle. Lisa watches the ball go up and leaps to the next turnbuckle, catching her ball in midair. As she lands Jessica jumps backwards to the turnbuckle opposite Lisa. The two glare at each other for a moment - Lisa holding her ball ready in front of her, Jessica holding it against her hip. They glare at each other for a moment, both infuriated, and then start to run along the top ropes, going clockwise around the ring. The stunned audience's eyes swivel as they try to keep up with the movement. Allison and Laura seems quite awkward and embarrassed. Lisa and Jessica almost become blurs circling along the top of the ropes. Eventually they both hit opposite turnbuckles at the same time, brace themselves against the turnbuckles and launch themselves at their opponent, getting ready to throw their balls as they speed forward. Lisa glares at Jessica as she flies forward, charging her ball with a white light. Jessica snarls at Lisa as she flies forward, flames flickering around her ball. Lisa looks a little alarmed. Jessica seems to panic... And then the two of them smash into each other in the centre of the ring, eliciting a loud CLONK sound. Both of them immediately pass out and slump to the ground. The crowd watches in shock. There is a slight shimmering as the MOON and MARS power wears off, but their costumes don’t change and nobody notices the light. MILHOUSE: Well, uh, that was a little strange... guess I wasn't paying attention. Anyone see what happened? Ms Hoover timidly approaches them. HOOVER: Uh... double KO? (later, Laura and Allison wonder how to revive the KO'd girls) LAURA: Maybe we could get some cold water? ALLISON: Forget it, I'm not transforming too!
