Host For a Day Prank Patrol Down Under

'Today Pip joins the Prank Patrol. Her mission,

'get her and best friend Miki a job on telly,

'throw in some nutty TV hosts that go missing in action,

'a studio that seems to be falling apart,

'and the script is set for this Prankie to believe

'that she's shut down an entire TV station.'

-# Here we go!

-# Here they come, they're on a roll

# Where they'll strike, nobody knows

# If you have a point to prove

# They'll make a plan and see it through

# They'll sign you up to join their crew

# Scotty and the Ninjas, too

# Here we go, come on, join the Prank Patrol

# Here we go!

That's definitely her. Right. Check this out.

-Whoo! How's it going, guys?

-Good.

-OK.

-Are you Pippa?

-Yes.

-Did you apply for Prank Patrol's help?

-Yes.

You're the newest member of Prank Patrol. You'll need that.

That is your pass to prank. And this. That's your prank jacket.

-Mum, is it sweet if we go pranking?

-Absolutely.

-You're a legend.

-You ready to go, Pippa?

-Yep.

-Enjoy the peace, we're going pranking.

Will do. Bye!

'This is Pip. A natural performer.

'Whether it's stage or screen, Pip loves the spotlight.

'Almost as much as she loves Smoochie, her pet cockatiel.'

Hi, my name's Pippa and I need Prank Patrol's help.

I want to prank my friend Miki. She always over-exaggerates everything

and it's funny. It'd be great to see her reaction.

The target of Pip's prank is Miki.

Pip says Miki is a hoot, and in between chatting on the phone,

Miki and Pip dance up a storm,

spending all their spare time on new routines.

Pippa, welcome to our spy van. Congratulations, you're in our team.

We'll help you pull off a killer prank. Who are we pranking?

-One of my best friends, Miki.

-OK, so tell me all about Miki.

-What's she into?

-She's in my school class and my dancing class

and she loves going to parties

and she wants to be a model or a TV star.

OK. So if you're best friends, why do you want to prank her?

I want to see her reaction. She over-exaggerates everything.

-So it'll be good.

-Very dramatic, is she?

-Yes.

-Oh, that's always good to prank girls like that.

-Will she know it's coming?

-No. I don't reckon.

Do you have any idea how we could prank her?

No, that's why I came to you, Scotty.

Well, you said she wants to be a model,

-she wants to be on TV, so she likes the spotlight, yeah?

-Yes.

Well, I've got a perfect prank in here. Let's check it out.

So, this prank is made for a girl that loves to be in the spotlight.

It's called Host For A Day.

So we're going to make you and Miki personal assistants

-for some TV hosts for an entire day. Sound like fun?

-Yes.

So then you're going to go in there, help out,

do some interviews, read some weird and wacky news.

-You're going to show everyone how good you can be. All right?

-Yes.

Then the real hosts are taken out of the picture

so you guys will have to fill in as the hosts.

Then everything is going to go bad and come crashing down around you,

you girls are going to wreck the studio,

which is then going to force the entire station to be closed.

-Oh, my gosh.

-It's going to be a disaster. Sound like fun?

-Yes.

-Will that freak Miki out?

-Yes.

-I can't wait to see her.

-This is a big prank. Can you handle this?

-I reckon.

Well, we've got a lot to do. So, Ninjas, step on it!

Because we've got to bag some TV stars.

'For this prank we'll require the help

'of my old partners in crime, and my good friends, Kayne and Amberley.

'So I'm expecting the red carpet treatment

'as we arrive at the TV studio.'

I feel so at home here at a TV station cos I'm a big star and all

so everyone's like, "Oh, Scotty!" I'm kind of a big deal.

Hey, guys! I bet you didn't expect to see yours truly here.

What a thrill for you all.

See, they love me, look, speechless.

-Scotty, it looks like they don't even know you.

-They love me.

Security? He's back.

I've got to sign some autographs. I'll see you guys really soon.

You just stay there. Hey, where's those fans?

All that and a bucket of sand!

On that note, that's all we have time for

but stick around, we'll be back after this.

Bucket of sand, that's such a good gag!

-No, elbows.

-OK, tea break, guys. There you go.

-Tea!

-Cheers, Daz. Hit the sand pit!

Kayne, Amberley, how are you?

-Scott.

-Scotty.

-Pippa, this is Kayne and Amberley.

-Pippa!

-Hey, Pip. Nice to meet you.

-Nice jacket!

-Thanks.

-Now, guys, we need a favour.

Can you help me out for a prank?

Oh, Scott, been there, done that, mate, bought the T-shirt.

-This is real television.

-We're on a tea break.

-That guy!

No, they're just kidding around. They're great mates with me.

I'll get them on board. I've got a plan. Anyway, let's meet Phil.

-Pippa, I'd like to introduce you to Phil.

-Hi, Pip.

-Hi.

Phil is a producer of Studio 3

so give him an idea of your prank and maybe he can help you out.

Me and Miki will come in for work experience

and Kayne and Amberley are going to go off set

so me and Miki are the hosts but everything goes wrong.

I like it! With your friend Miki,

we can change the autocue and she can get it wrong.

-Have you seen one before?

-No.

-We put the script in here,

it reflects onto the camera so the host can look at the camera

-and read their script.

-TV hosts use these all the time?

Kayne and Amberley don't need it. I can't say the same for Scotty.

I don't use an autocue! Wow.

Great chat, Phil. Tanks, mate. Hey, is that meant to be thanks?

-Don't worry about it, Scotty.

-All right. Pip, take this down.

We'll need an actor to play a producer, like Phil,

-in the prank, too.

-Actually, Scotty, I am an actor. I'm in character.

Gee, you're good. No, you're really good.

-Can we afford you?

-HE LAUGHS

We still need to get Kayne and Amberley involved in the prank too

-but they seem way too busy.

-The Ninjas could get them on board.

Classic! Kayne and Ambo don't stand a chance.

All right, thanks a lot, Phil. You're going to be great.

-We'll see you at prank time. And let's go this way.

-See you.

-See you.

Hey, Frank! No?

No! No, the sausage rolls!

Huh? HE COUGHS

And cue Kayne freak-out right about...now.

KAYNE SCREAMS

Bingo! Do you want to knock on the door?

Look at me, Scotty! Help me! I can't get this off! I look ridiculous!

I've got a reputation to uphold! Don't laugh! You've got to help me!

-I'll do anything!

-Anything?

-Anything!

-Anything?

-Anything!

-You know that prank we were telling you about?

Yeah. All right!

-We got a deal, Bozo?

-Deal.

-Yeah!

-HE WHISTLES

Ohh!

No! Ow! Go easy! I've got sensitive skin!

-I'll be back in one second.

-All right, see you soon.

THEY LAUGH

THEY LAUGH

HE LAUGHS

-What are you doing? Take it off me!

-Nice beard, wolf man!

Hey, Amber, that hairdo really brings out your eyes.

It's not funny! Take it off! It's ruining my life! Take it off now!

I'll do anything! Just get it off me! Eww!

-Anything?

-Anything! Just whatever! Get it off me!

That prank we were telling you about?

-When you were too cool to talk to us?

-What do you guys want?

-We want you to be in the prank.

-Whatever, man. Fine.

-Deal, Ned Kelly?

-Whatever. How are you going to get this off me?

-I'll get the Ninjas onto it.

-HE WHISTLES

'Latest Prank Patrol member Pip is about to prank best friend Miki

'into thinking they've made it big as the replacement hosts

'on a TV show. But will having hosts Kayne and Amberley in on the prank

'be enough to convince our target that she's caused the whole network

-'to shut down?'

-..really unprofessional!

Oh, man, my wig is killing me!

-OK, guys, we all right to go?

-Yeah.

-Thanks, Phil.

-Looking good. I love the hair.

-Oh, thanks, Phil.

-Pip, can you hear me?

-Yep.

-Excellent. This is a great practice for your prank. Ready?

-Yep.

-Over to you, Daz.

-Standby, guys, here we go in five,

four, three, two...

Good morning, threeples and welcome back to 3 Now!

And I believe we have a special guest doing the weather for us today, Ann.

Yes, Ken, please welcome an up-and-coming TV star, Pip!

Thanks, guys. Let's start with Brisbane. Why not head to the beach?

It's going to be a wonderful sunny day and 28 degrees.

Sydney, the home of the opera house, should be expecting some drizzle

and a chilly 15. Moving on to Canberra,

there will be mild conditions with a light breeze and 19 degrees.

Melbourne, no blue skies today,

it's going to be 18 degrees and very, very cloudy.

For Hobart, the capital of Tasmania, it looks like rain, 12.

Moving on to Adelaide, the city of churches,

hold onto your hats, it's looking windy at 16 degrees.

Over in the west, it's not looking good. Thunder storms for Perth

and just 11 degrees. And lastly, Darwin.

Quite unusual for this time of year, a new record of minus-4 degrees

and snow. And now back to you guys.

Thanks for that, Pipparoni! She looks a little under the weather!

Yes, folks, that's all we've got time for

in this week's edition of 3 Now. Good evening!

-Under the weather, Ann.

-That was a cracker, Ken. Really.

OK, Pippa, your prank is looking awesome. You've turned yourself into

a little TV star. Now we need to give Miki a call and lure her in.

-Do you know what you're going to say?

-Maybe.

-You'll do great!

-Good luck with the phone call.

-PHONE RINGS

-"Hello?"

-Hi, Miki, it's Pippa.

-"Oh, hey, Pippa, how are you?"

-I'm good. How are you?

-"Good, thanks."

I'm doing this thing tomorrow and I was wondering if you want to come

to assist TV hosts on ABC.

"Yes! Oh, my gosh! Is it like... What are we doing?"

I'm not really sure. We're just being assistants.

-"So we get to go to an actual studio?"

-Yeah.

-With TV hosts. On TV.

-MIKI SQUEALS

-"That's going to be so cool!"

-Yeah. I'll see you tomorrow.

-"OK."

OK. Bye-bye.

-That was awesome!

-HE LAUGHS

How good was that? Do you think she's just a little bit excited?

-Yes.

-She was doing the...

-HE SQUEALS

-"Oh, my God, we're on TV!"

-Do you reckon she's suspicious at all?

-No.

-Oh, man, this is going to be so much fun! Are you excited?

-Definitely.

Well, there's only one more thing to do and that's release the Ninjas!

'The blueprint for Pip's prank is a top-rating TV show,

'two TV hosts,

'a very weird autocue, a weird interview

'and an electrifying ending.'

I'm really excited cos Scotty and the crew have been great

and the prank day, it's going to be awesome. I can't wait.

'It's prank time!

'Pippa and Miki head into the TV studio

'ready for their new, exciting roles as personal assistants

'for hosts Kayne and Amberley.

'And, of course, I'm ready to take up my new job

-'as the big boss of the TV station.'

-Girls, hello!

-Hi.

-You must be our winners. Is that right?

-Yes.

-Come on in!

-Welcome to Studio 3. Just watch your step here.

-It's so colourful!

Yes, very bright. What we thought we might do is get you on telly.

-'On telly?'

-Cool!

-It's very easy. You guys just have to be you.

-'OK.'

-Kayne and Amberley, who are our hosts, they thought it'd be good

to interview our PA For A Day winners and get to know you.

'Speaking of Kayne and Amberley, time to send them in.'

This is Darren. These are our PAs for a day.

-This is Pip.

-Hello, how are you?

-And Miki.

-This is Kayne.

-Pip, is it?

-Pippa, yeah.

-And?

-Miki.

-And Miki.

-Miki, yeah.

-Cool.

'With introductions out of the way,

'it's time to get Pippa and Miki strutting their stuff. Literally.'

Pip, this side would be terrific. Thanks, Darren.

Recording in three, two...

Hey, guys, welcome back to Studio 3!

Yes, it's Amberley and Kayne and we're joined by two guests

who won our Win A PA For A Day competition,

-it is Pip and Miki! Whoo, girls!

-Give me some hands!

-Nice work.

-Uh! Uh! Uh! Ohhh!

-Yeah.

-Whatever. Now, guys, I want to hear, you're obviously friends,

-a funny story. It's time to dob.

-Something really embarrassing.

-Oh, do you want to show them the walk?

-What walk?

-The walk!

-Walk! Walk! Walk! Walk!

-You know!

-What's the walk?

-Go, Miki.

-OK, guys, this is the walk.

-Here we go.

-Ready, steady...

-Whoa!

-'Did she just walk like a chicken?'

-Whoo-hoo!

-That was really crazy!

-Looks like a magpie with a sore leg.

-Do you want to discuss what that was about?

-I don't know what I'm doing.

-Really, I don't!

-We have got tons in store for you two!

That's all for now. You guys keep watching Studio 3. See you soon.

Thank you, guys!

-She made me do the walk!

-'She made you, huh?'

-Oh, my gosh! I'm going to die!

-What is the deal with that walk?

-I don't even know.

-You guys did really well.

-Good interview.

-Do you know that's going on TV?

-Oh, my gosh.

-Totally.

-Kill me now!

Maybe don't tell the friends. Hey, guys, very natural, very nice.

'Time now to kick off the first bit of our prank.'

It's still a bit cold. Did you turn the air off?

-I asked them to.

-If you stand there, you can still hear it.

-I'm really cold.

-Do you want your cardigan?

-Could you get it?

-'Yes, please!'

-Would you like your PA to fetch your cardigan?

-Do you mind?

-'Great idea.'

-It's on the chair in the corridor.

-It's a red one.

-Once Miki's back, we'll organise the next segment.

'Cool. Hold on. Two sweaters?

'Wait. No. Miki, that one's got cat hair on it!'

Thank you, Miki. Cheers.

Oh, put it on, as well! She's a bit shorter than you!

'What happens when you combine Amberley and cat hair?'

-SHE COUGHS Better?

-I'm better.

-Good.

-The air-con's off.

-Definitely off.

-SHE COUGHS

-'That doesn't sound good.'

-Are you all right?

-There's something in my eye.

-Are you all right?

-Actually... Is this...

-That's not your jacket.

-'Oops.'

-Did you grab the right one? Because I'm allergic to cat hair

-and if it's got cat hair on it...

-'Oops.'

-Was that outside?

I did see two. I was like, "Oh, my gosh, which one do I grab?"

That was a really serious reaction.

'Imaginary cat hair can be pretty dangerous stuff.'

Amberley's pretty puffed up but she's going to be OK.

'No hosts were actually hurt during filming.'

I don't know whether she can do the rest of the show. What should we do?

-Go with these guys.

-'Great idea!'

-The walk was amazing.

'With Amberley out of the picture, it's up to Pip and Miki

'to help Kayne ruin the show. I mean, run the show.'

We'll go on with the show because we're running out of time.

-We might do the music segment and use Miki. Does that sound good?

-Yep.

'Next up, Miki has been set the task of doing a music new segment.'

-Am I reading that?

-Just read it and keep smiling. It's very simple.

'But to get this right, she's going to have to deal with the autocue.'

Three, two...

Hey, guys, you're watching Studio 3. I've got my PAs aboard.

I'm going to throw now for the music review to Tricky Miki!

There's been a lot happening in music this week.

First up, let's talk about Lady Gaga.

Parts of her new album will be recorded underwater.

If you ask me, that really is gaga. And have you heard Gaga?

-Gaga. Ga...ga.

-'Huh?'

-Gaga.

-Stop the tape there if we could.

-Stopped, yeah.

If you ask me, that really is gaga. And have you heard Gaga Gaga....

-We seem to have a problem.

-'Weird.'

-We seem to have a problem.

Oh, my gosh! If they put... Oh!

That was a complete stuff-up. I probably looked like a freako.

-'Uh-huh.'

-Gagagagaga.

Gaga.

And I couldn't even smile. I was like... Ga...Gaga.

Oh, my gosh. They're showing me walking... I'm going to cry.

We're going to get rid of the music news segment.

'With the music news segment completely unusable,

'it's time now to see what other things we can get Miki and Pip

-'to make a complete mess of.'

-Let's get you back in.

-We doing this now?

Yes, please. We have got satellite from LA

and it's Jack McNab, OK? Big movie director dude.

-'Did he say Jack McNab?'

-You guys know him?

-No.

Jack McNab? Really? Hollywood director Jack McNab?

'Or Prank Patrol actor Jack McNab?'

Make sure that you look down the barrel and don't read the autocue.

Especially you, Miki, after last time.

-'Ouch!'

-Just kidding. Or am I?

Welcome back to Studio 3! I'm with Pip and Miki, our PAs for the day.

We're about to cross all the way to LA for an interview

with big-time Hollywood director Jack McNab!

Jack McNab, are you there?

'Looks like they're having trouble hearing each other.'

-Jack!

-Hello?

-Oh, hello. I hear a young lady.

-Hello?

-Hello.

-OK, Kayne, your mic's out.

-Theirs are live if you want to feed them questions.

-Are you kidding?

-You want me to keep going?

-'With Jack only able to hear Pip and Miki,

-'it's up to them to save the day.'

-Hey, Jack, you there?

-Yeah, hi.

-I'm Pippa and this is Miki and we'll be interviewing you.

-So, you know my movies, then?

-BOTH: Yeah!

-Which was your favourite?

-'Whoops!'

-Erm... Erm...

-You know, just, erm, your recent one.

-Oh, right, yeah.

'Nice save, Miki! Let's see if you can handle some cheeky questions.'

My friend Miki here says that you're romantically involved

with some of the actors. Tell us about that.

I'm not prepared to talk about that.

Let's stick with the movie, shall we?

Last time we spoke to you, you had hair. What happened? Go.

-Last time we spoke to you, you had hair. What happened?

-What?

What? My goodness! What kind of question is that?

I came up here to talk about the movie, young lady!

You Aussies, you have no idea about

talking to Hollywood directors! Let's terminate this!

-'That was awkward.'

-Thanks heaps.

-We lost the link.

'Oh, we've lost the link! Now let's lose Kayne

-'and leave the girls to run the show.'

-We can't use that at all.

This whole day has been a mess up from the start and I'm sick of it.

It's completely unprofessional! If it weren't for these two,

the whole interview would've been a shambles! I quit! Sorry, girls.

-I quit!

-No, don't quit.

-Calm down.

-No!

-I promise you...

-Forget it!

-'Hissy fit!'

-'Great performance!'

-That was weird.

-I know.

-I seriously can't stop shaking.

Kayne literally quits every other week.

And we always make up, so we are pretty good mates. It's OK.

We've only got one segment to go, so we figured that even without Kayne

-and Amberley, you guys could do it.

-'Who needs them?'

-Erm...

-Easy.

-Yeah, I guess.

-'With Kayne and Amberley out of the picture,

'it's time to set Miki up for one last killer prank.'

Stay on the pink spot. This is the drawing from the listener

so I might give that to you, Pip. Miki, I'll give you the last thing,

-this little button, the magic box.

-'Hm. Looks like a prank button.'

When you've said goodbye, give us a bit of a walk

and that's when you push the button and glitter will fall from the roof.

-'Are you sure there'll be glitter?'

-Then dance until we say stop.

-All right.

-OK. Are you excited?

-Yes.

-Three, two...

-Welcome back to Studio 3!

We have Miki and Pippa here hosting in for the guys.

We've got a picture here from little Scotty over in Western Australia.

It's a really cute picture, I must say.

-'I'm a natural!'

-Scotty definitely deserves a prize.

Anyway, we'll see you guys tomorrow, OK?

-Bye, Australia!

-Bye!

-Let's do the walk!

Come on, let's do the walk!

-Stay on the mat. And hit the button!

-'Time to push the button, Miki!'

-Hit it hard.

-SHE SCREAMS

-ALARM BLARES

-What was that?

-Oh, no!

-Oh, my God!

-Oh, no!

-Stay there, girls. Is everyone OK?

-Not again.

-'Whoops.'

-Are you all right?

-Yeah.

-You didn't get hurt?

-Yeah, I'm good.

-Which button did you push?

-The green one, I promise!

-It was a couple of times, wasn't it?

-'Erm, yep.'

-We're off the air. There's nothing going? No programme?

-Oh, that was so...

-'Guys, I think you just broke the TV station.'

What on earth? What is going on?

'And here comes the big cheese to get some answers.'

-The network's down!

-He's always mental.

-We're off air!

This is Scott, he's the big executive from the studio.

I was just on my desk watching the TV and there's nothing!

Yeah, I'm sorry. It was just our PAs for a day were here...

Right around the country, there is no signal!

No signal! No signal! Who's to blame?

Well, Miki pressed the button but it wasn't her fault.

It's because of the wiring that we've been telling you about.

-What's your name?

-Pippa.

-Pippa, do you have anything to say?

-Miki, you've been pranked by Prank Patrol!

-What?

-You've been pranked by the Prank Patrol!

-Oh, my...

-THEY LAUGH Ohh!

-Don't run away.

Oh, my gosh! I was like, "This day cannot get any worse!" Seriously.

THEY LAUGH Oh, my God!

-Hey!

-Good work! THEY SHOUT

-Good job!

-High five!

That was great, Miki, let's make a movie!

THEY LAUGH/CLAP

You have just been pranked by the Prank Patrol. How does it feel?

Oh, I don't even know what to say.

-Are you two still going to be friends after this?

-Yeah, of course.

Aww! Yeah!

I feel completely shocked. I had no idea that was going to happen

-but that was so much fun.

-The walk, I knew she'd be embarrassed,

-but too bad.

-That was one of the most embarrassing moments of my life,

probably THE most embarrassing moment.

Getting Pippa back? I'm going to try, but beating this will be hard.

There's only one thing left to do and that's the walk.

Hey, I'm Miki, and I just got pranked by the Prank Patrol.
