Let's start today's video. Frank the prankster out, baby. Clear your calendar. I usually only invite pretty friends, but I can make an exception. Audrey, meet my girl squad. And before you can be a part of our squad or score an invite to the hottest end of your bash, you're going to have to pass a few tests.

Wait, are you serious? Not just anybody can infiltrate our friend group and get close to Mallerie. She's bookside high royalty. Yeah, especially not some nude girl that we know nothing about. Consider it a right of passage. Ladies, let's chat about letter. Is that a diary? Oh, um, that's um, nobody can see that. That just has like all my secrets in it. I'm going to be late for class. Excuse me.

I'm just saying you don't need to vet every girl we come through. Mallerie, you're literally the richest and most popular girl in school for the past 3 years. No doubt this year is going to be four. Yeah, we just want to make sure she's worth your time and in our circle for the right reasons. Trust me, Jay isn't someone you need to worry about. Okay. Analyze a social hierarchy and identify something that maintains power within it. Okay. Why don't we do school, right?

High school is basically an ecosystem. Yeah. The queen, the inner circle, the orbiters, but what keeps them at the top? If we're studying hierarchies, then why don't we just compare it to the solar system? Uh-huh. So, Mallerie is the sun. Wait, careful. Don't. She might burn you. Hey, I like Mallalerie. She's not your typical queen bee. She's actually nice. Yeah. Speaking of which, I uh heard that you're going through the infamous challenges. Mhm. I get it. Uh a party is nice and all, but you don't have to be invited to be accepted.

I just think it would be nice to have some friends for a change. Sorry. Okay. So let's say if this is the social solar system I'm used to then I would be Pluto. Thank you. And so it begins. Are you ready for your first challenge? Bring it on. Here's how this works. If you prove that you're the best cheerleader here, you pass the challenge. So, let's see if you can out cheer the captain. Hey girls, you got to be a Mickey. Come on, Audrey. You got this. Wow. Incredible. Wow. And I don't know. And I say I was so good.

Killer. Wow, that was so good. I believe that you did it. Wow, so cool. Congratulations. You passed. Really? That was insane. You should totally be cheer captain. Oh. Uh, get lost. We don't want someone like you on our squad. Hilarious for even trying though. Four eyes. Actually, Audrey was the one that taught me all the moves. She's a great cheer captain. You guys are lucky to have her. Oh, you have to teach us that, please. Yeah. Let's go. The game is simple. A little general knowledge challenge. Gen Z edition.

Let's see if you can beat the captain of the Scholastic team. Oh, and one more thing. What social media app popularized the for you page algorithmic feed after launching in 2018? Tik Tok. Correct. What company developed the AI chatbot chat GBT? Open AAI. What artist era tour became the first tour in history projected to surpass $1 billion? Taylor Swift. What company developed the video game Fortnite? Epic Games. In gaming, what does the acronym NPC stand for? Non-playable character.

What company owns the video platform YouTube? Google. The score is 33. This is our final question. What streaming platform produced the series Stranger Things? Audrey? Netflix. That is correct. I can't believe you beat Deiana. You should be the captain of our Scholastic team. So, today I decided to re research. Playing under Deanna made me better than if I ever had done it by myself. She's the kind of captain that every team hopes for. So, uh, how have the challenges been going?

Two down, three to go. Uh, I got it. Thank you. What did I miss? Sorry, but you can't sit with us. It's nothing personal. We just curate carefully. No, it's fine, girls. You don't have to move. No, actually, it's not. She still has challenges. It's okay. I'll I'll move. Good morning, Bookside. This is a reminder that yearbook superlative voting will begin soon. Be on the lookout for voting instructions and make sure to cast your votes.

You have to threaten it first. Oh, do I? You hear what you're saying? So, are you actually going to make it into the party or? Well, I'm two for two. So, good because I'm going and I wouldn't mind going with Well, wouldn't you mind stuck that's so I caught it. Ivy is the president of the fashion club and an Instagram model. So whatever the challenge is, it will be fabulous. So here's the challenge. You have 45 minutes to get ready before you have to walk down the runway. You need to score at least 25 points from the judges in order to pass this challenge. Your time starts now.

Tick tock, Cinderella. We don't have until midnight. Credit card, no limit. Uh-huh. All of my girls win it. Uh-huh. In one minute. Like, camera, action. Yeah. Credit card, no limit. Uh-huh. They all know who did Audrey. Yeah. Wow, you look absolutely um We better get going or we're going to be laz. I will text you later. Okay. Bye.

Maybe you do have fashioning and vocabulary after all. Thank you. Congrats. You passed. Excuse me, Audrey. Right. I work with Live Glam and I think you'd be perfect as the face for our new product. It's mine now. What are you going to do about it? Oh no. Are you going to cry? I'm so sorry. I'm I'm not interested. Oh, but I know someone that might be. Ivy has a huge following, is a total beauty guru. I think she'd be the perfect fit. Oh, is that so? Ivy, do you have a moment to chat?

Thank you. I never thought I'd be able to work with a beauty brand. Are you serious? Have you looked in the mirror? You're stunning. Probably residual insecurity. Between you and me, I used to get bullied for my nose. So, I got a nose job a few years ago, but nobody knows that. Please don't tell anyone. Oh, your secret's safe with me. Go, go. This is me. I'm so excited to sleep over. Yeah, me too. Oh, that's from Tessa. She is the editor and chief of everything in print at book site newspaper to your book.

Got it. Don't dunk. I'm impressed you made it this far. Final challenge. Sit. So, what are you going to challenge me to type a thousand words per minute or something? No. Uh, this challenge is nice and easy. No typing necessary. See this? I need something juicy to write about in this next issue. All I need you to do is give me some tea worth spilling. A secret, a scandal, something people don't know and would be gossiping about for the next week at least. Between you and me, I used to get bullied for my nose. So, I got a nose job a few years ago, but nobody knows that. Please don't tell anyone. Oh, your secret's safe with me.

Well, this is the one thing you need to get an invite to the party in an official place in our friend group. So, what's the tea? I can't believe you did that. You really threw in the towel, huh? Sex having morals, doesn't it? So, where are we going to place you on the social hierarchy solar system? M definitely not the party, that's for sure. I hope you have a good time though. You'll have to tell me all about it. Maybe neither of us have to go.

I don't understand. End of the day, it's my party and I am the queen of the school. So, my ruling is final. See you there. Oh, but not looking like this. As I said, I have only pretty friends. So, give me some more runway glam. Okay. Okay. Bye. My gum. So, is it everything you thought it'd be? I can't even remember the last time I've been to a party. So, well, it's a good thing I have a gift for you to commemorate this momentous occasion. The Cassiopia constellation. I It's visible all year. Doesn't need perfect conditions. And maybe we can take my telescope out sometime and look at it for real.

I love it. Would you mind? Yeah. Alice, I should I give you two minutes? Oh, I we uh you should go and see what they're laughing at. Go. Dear diary, I googled how to be popular tonight. It said to smile more and talk less. Dear diary, I wish I could wake up as someone else tomorrow. Someone who actually has sad. No, wait. No, just hear us out. Why should I? Because we didn't do it. All we've been trying to do is protect you. You see, Mallalerie has a bit of an ego problem.

She can't stand anyone being the center of attention or getting what she wants. Protecting her crown, literally or figuratively, meant everything to her. But she's smart about it. Instead of making someone her enemy, she makes them her friend, gains their trust, loyalty, learns what was important to them. I swear I didn't cheat. You have to believe me. I cheat. No, no, I'm not that type of student. Then before you know it, the unsuspecting victim's life is falling apart. We knew Mallerie would have it out for you as soon as you and Ellis started spending more time together. Mallerie always liked him. Why do you think she would keep popping up when you two were hanging out? When Mallerie came over for that

sleepover, she wasn't looking for quality girl time. She was snooping for a way to hurt you. So, you see, the whole plan with the challenges was to protect you, was to keep you away from her. Okay. And then why didn't any of you warn me? We realized that if we wanted to keep our status, we had to stay on Mallalerie's good side at all costs. Mallerie controls everything. The way we dress, our makeup, everything. I mean, you think I want to wear all of this just to sweat it off later?

Yeah. I mean, she's the only one that gives us any sort of real status. She's queen of the school, the one who invites us to her big parties, which are literally the main event of the entire year. A party is nice and all, but you don't have to be invited to be accepted. Ellis was right. You don't need to be invited to a party to feel accepted. Carly, you're an incredible captain whose team adores you. Deiana, your big brains will probably win you a Nobel Prize. Ivy, you have such a huge following that you give FOMO to every single day, including me. And Tessa, you write narratives that

people actually want to read. You don't need Mallalerie. If anything, she needs all of you. I never realized how badly I needed to hear that. Look, we're really sorry. Is there any way you can forgive us? What exactly is going on? We're at lunch. Ew. I can't believe you all left the house looking like this. You're supposed to be my girl squad. Oh, I'm sorry. Are we not pretty enough to be in your squad? Good thing we have a better one then with Audrey, the newly appointed most popular queen of bookside.

There is no way. Looks like the people have spoken. This has to be a mistake. Nobody would ever Hey, Audrey. I just wanted to say that what you wrote the other night really resonated with me. Yeah. Honestly, I'm sorry about what I said and the way I acted. I didn't think anyone else felt that way. Yeah, I'm sorry about the party, Audrey. I feel really bad. And they're not the only ones who voted for her. We all did. We're done with the way you treat people.

You I am the one who gave you a seat at the table. I am the one who invented you. And you think sitting here makes you powerful without me? No. But I think knowing I don't need to sit anywhere specific does. He wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me. Yeah, you're right. But I don't need to orbit you to matter. None of us do. What's this I hear about you planting test answers and making copies of journals to my office right now. So where should we put her in the social solar system now?

Pluto.
