CHEERING

Thank you, Vox Pop, for that rousing song to kick off the moment

you've all been waiting for.

The votes are in and have been counted.

Stop!

There's something you all need to know.

Good to see you. Great night.

Billie, I didn't think you'd make it.

Interesting look.

Don't! You know what happened.

But it ends here.

Three weeks ago, I was accused of a crime I didn't commit.

And I swore I would clear my name

-and find the real identity of the Shredder.

-Uh, Deleter.

-Eraser.

-Whatever.

Someone framed me, and as I investigated,

my friends started being attacked by an online troll.

Alessandro.

Amani created the account using a picture from Shak's profile.

But it was hacked and Alessandro came after us all.

He sent abusive messages, switched the campaign leaflet

and kidnapped and ruined Selene's guitar.

My prime suspect was Blake.

I fought a spirited campaign,

but I told you, I've changed.

It was all Bubs.

You can't trust anyone.

I trusted YOU, Blake.

I believed you when you said that you'd changed,

but you were the only one who knew where to send that package

that blew up in my face.

Really? And how did Bubs know where to go?

Remember, he had the Alessandro account on his phone.

Yes, but his phone was confiscated when he was sent to the Greenhouse,

meaning someone else could've planted that evidence.

And sometimes, the most obvious answer is the right one.

I thought it was you from the start,

and I was right.

You were Alessandro.

But it's over.

No more lying.

No more bullying.

You're finished.

A wonderful, imaginative story.

You should turn this into one of your comics.

But you're missing just one thing.

-Proof.

-He's right, Billie.

You need to back up your accusations.

-Please tell us this wasn't a bluff.

-They're telling the truth.

Scarlet, I suggest you consider your next words very carefully.

He forced me into helping him because...

..because he knew that I cheated on my exam,

so I helped him put the Alessandro account onto Bub's phone,

and then I took the fool when he pinned the guitar plot on me.

CROWD GASPS

I was going to tell you, Bubs,

but I was scared that you'd tell Billie, and she was his date.

I don't care any more.

Expel me if you want,

but Blake can't be president.

Actually, yes, I can.

The polls have closed - check the rules.

A president can't be removed for actions that

occurred before the election.

So, Miss Malik, now would be a good time for that result,

and my first act as president will be to shut down all your clubs

and create a luxury presidential office.

CROWD BOOS

The new student president of Drew Fletcher is...

Emma? Who's Emma?

Oh, Echo!

CHEERING

Blake was counting on the Greenhouse vote,

but we all voted for Echo.

Now Blake can enjoy the Greenhouse for himself.

No.

Scarlet and her crew voted for me,

cos we're going to reform the Greenhouse.

No more locking kids up and forgetting about them.

Bravo, and I'll help.

I can't deny who I am.

I will dance again and run art classes in the Greenhouse.

I'd rather just go to prison.

Wait, something doesn't add up.

Blake has an alibi for when the office was trashed.

The timestamps don't match his movements. Data doesn't lie.

-So how did he...?

-He didn't.

He only sent the anonymous message that got me

to Miss Malik's office and framed me.

He wasn't the one who smashed everything up.

But I think I know who did.

And they're about to be unmasked.

Billie, what are you doing here?

What happened to you? Are you OK?

Abi, we need to talk.

-What's up?

-I've just come from prom.

Great. How is it?

Is there some kind of blue foam machine or something?

We proved Blake was behind the Alessandro account.

I knew it! Nice one, Billie.

Case closed.

Not quite.

Blake tried to frame me as the Shredder,

but someone else sent Django the anonymous message

that cleared me and Selene.

Hmm.

Sounds like there's another detective out there.

Or another villain.

Someone who knew we were innocent.

Because THEY wrecked Miss Malik's office.

But why would they help us?

Maybe they felt bad about you getting into trouble.

Or maybe they hoped that if I got out of the Greenhouse,

I'd stop digging.

But you never will, will you?

Tonight, I almost wish I had.

Billie, I'm sorry.

I never meant for you to get hurt.

Then why?

-Why did you do it?

-I can't tell you.

Please, drop it.

I'll turn myself in and you can just walk away.

I've come too far to just turn around now.

I have to know the truth.

What happened when you went to Aster Rathbone?

I'm not at Aster Rathbone.

I just pretended I was.

I trashed Miss Malik's office to cover what I was really doing -

destroying my school record so no-one would come looking for me.

I don't understand.

We saw your drama teacher.

No.

You saw my dad.

-Then why...?

-Because I didn't want anyone to know!

He has some problems.

He's ill.

Oh...

Abi, I'm so sorry.

Has he been in hospital or something?

Not that kind of ill.

Not the kind that you can see.

He's fine a lot of the time, but he gets confused.

His moods can change from one second to the next.

One day he's shouting Shakespeare for milkshakes,

others he feels too sad and hopeless to even get out of bed.

Why didn't you tell us?

People don't understand.

They say things like, "That's mental," or, "You're mad!"

-And it makes me cry inside...

-Abi...

But outside...I smile and pretend that everything is OK

because no-one can know.

They'll say he isn't well enough for me to live with him.

He is.

He just needs some help.

And that's what you've been doing?

Skipping school to stay at home with him?

Yes.

Dad has no idea, but I've been here...

..making sure he remembers to eat, to take his pills,

keep his doctor's appointments.

Oh, Abi.

You can't do this all alone.

You need help.

And we'll find it...together.

Do you really think so?

It's been so hard, Billie.

I promise, you are not alone any more.

We're the League of Ordinary Heroes.

And no-one is a bigger hero than you.

CRYING

DOOR UNLOCKS

Oh, sorry, sorry.

Abi, I didn't know we had company.

-It's fine, I'm just catching up on all the prom gossip.

-Oh, right.

Is there some sort of blue foam machine there or something?

Something like that.

Sounds fun.

-You should go.

-No, I'm just going

-to stay in with you.

-I'm fine.

You've taken care of everything.

As usual.

I've got everything I need.

You go. Go and have fun with...

Sorry, I don't know your name.

This is my friend Billie.

And, Billie, this is my dad.

-Nice to meet you.

-And you.

Off you go, then...

..fair and gracious daughter.

So, with the adventure over,

the Amazing Billie and the Shooting Star returned to prom...

..and to our friends.

We found out there's no reason Abi can't stay living with her dad,

so long as they get the support they need.

It's not going to be easy.

I always said I wanted justice,

that I would stand up for what's fair,

even for people who don't play fair themselves,

like Blake.

But some things just aren't.

It isn't fair that Abi's dad has a mental illness.

We can't solve that, but we can be there for Abi.

And she's coming back to school,

where Echo, Scarlet, and Miss Malik

have already started turning the Greenhouse

into an art room.

It turns out that since the exam papers were destroyed

by the Shredder,

there's no record of Scarlet cheating,

so she won't be expelled.

She just has to re-sit.

Selene's going to help her study.

Selene and Django are officially an item now,

and it looks like Shak and Amani are right behind them.

And Bubs abandoned his Anti-Prom and we stayed there together

and danced all night.

BOTH: Just as friends.

Because that's the most important thing, right?

And we'll all be friends...for ever.

# Once I felt lost, low, mixed up and confused

# Feelings and emotions shattered and bruised

# I pretended to everyone else

# But I was only fooling myself

# I hid and tried to conceal

# What I felt and what was real

# But I found another way through

# When I put my trust in you

-# You don't have to pretend

-I know we're friends forever-ever

-# I'll always be your friend

-Disrespect you, we'll never-never

-# You don't have to pretend

-Any story to weather-weather

-# I'll always be your friend

-I'll stick by you wherever-ever

-# You don't have to pretend

-And I'm always by your side

# I got your back and you've got mine

# You don't have to pretend

# Because I know we'll be friends

# You don't have to pretend

# I'll always be your friend. #
