not the Fourth of freakin' July, okay?

Lainey, come on.

Okay, I tried.

She didn't like it.

I didn't like it.

It was a bad idea.

I should never have said anything.

- Gabby.

- What?

Give me that sparkler.

Yeah, I think...

I think I'm perfect.

- Like, so good.

- Like, more than perfect.

- Way perfect.

- What would you call that?

Cool.

Cheerleader Kira Castle

and Lainey Fox!

Her hair! The labels!

Fire extinguisher.

Fire extinguisher!

Kira, drop and roll!

- Drop and roll!

- Can we open that curtain, please?

I don't know if those burnt labels

are going to count.

It was Gabby!

She did it!

Come on, Gabs, yell at me.

Say something.

All I feel is peace.

It can't get any worse.

I'll make it up to you, I swear.

Thanks, but I've been branded "loser"

for the rest of my life.

You're going to be late for chem lab,

and you know how upset you get

when you don't have

your favorite Bunsen burner.

Oh, thatagirl.

Okay, coast is clear.

Come on.

Where do you think you're going,

you little soph-whores?

The other way.

Excuse me.

Kira's talking to you.

Keep going, keep going.

You can't escape me.

Not that way. Oh, gosh.

Check it out.

Hi, Kira. Cute scarf.

Don't try to suck up to me

after what you did.

Actually it was my fault.

Gabby didn't...

I know what happened.

Nice try, Girl Scout.

I was there.

She had the sparklers.

Me too.

I'm, like, a witness.

But the...

But... but... but what, Gabby?

I am going to have to get

hair extensions now.

Do you have any idea

how much that costs?

Not nearly as much

as it will be to fix your face.

I don't know,

but I could pay you back.

I could set up a payment plan

and even include damages

for pain and suffering.

"Pain and suffering"?

That is, like, so Law and Order,

but that's not going to work

for me, Gabby.

She doesn't like it.

From now on, Gabby Davis,

your life at Highland High is over.

She's finished.

Whatever. You can't just...

That goes for you too.

Duh.

Lainey.

Losers!

Shove off, Gabby.

Thanks a lot.

Hate you, Devon.

We should consider homeschooling.

Don't worry.

Kira's all talk.

"Don't worry. "

Don't worry?

Hello, Godzilla in a cheerleader skirt

declared social war on us.

Gabs, we'll be fine.

Losers.

I'm telling you, Gabs,

this is all going to blow over.

You'll see.

People have really short

attention spans.

Nice work, idiots.

Cute accessories, girls.

Losers!

You know, I really feel

it hasn't been that bad.

- Are you okay?

- I'm fine.

I'm totally fine.

Okay.

We are the biggest losers

in the history of the universe, Devon.

Future civilizations

will conduct studies

on just how pathetic we were.

We need to think big, Gabs,
