(PANTING) What? But this is once in a lifetime. Mei-Mei, it's one thing to stay calm at home or school, but a concert? You'll get whipped up into a frenzy and panda all over the place. I won't, I won't! I promise! You saw me keep it in. Ming, maybe we should trust her. It's them I don't trust. Look at those glittery delinquents with their... (SHUDDERS) gyrations. Why on earth do you want to go so badly?

Like I said, I just want to broaden my musical horizons. (SIGHS) This isn't music. This is filth. And it's not worth jeopardizing your life over. -Right, Jin? -Uh... See? Your father agrees. No concert. And that's final.

(GASPS) Mei. How is this possible? What happened to your panda? It's easy. When I start to get emotional, all I do is imagine the people I love most in the whole world. Oh.
Okay, I'm heading off to mathletes. See you later! Wait, what about dinner? I made all your favorites. (GASPS SOFTLY) Thanks, but Miriam's dad is, uh, ordering pizza. Save me leftovers? -What if I come with you? -Wha... What are you doing? Linear equations? Geometry? I have a double-jointed elbow! Look! I can make a perfect circle! Wow! Yeah, but it'll be super boring. Wouldn't you rather hang with Dad?

Are you serious? You can't trust him. It's a trap! This sounds like a boy-girl party. Are we allowed to boy-girl parties? Guys! Two hundred bucks will put us over the top! We have to do this. We'll meet at Tyler's, I'll do my thing, and then we'll bounce. Easy-peasy. Dude, what about your mom? Forget my mom. I'll be back before she even knows I'm gone. -But... -Hey, dorkbag. We're in. But you only get the panda for an hour. And we are not bringing any presents. Deal.

It's this Friday. If you're there, everyone will come. Simple as that. A party? (SIGHS) Look, I've done you a favor keeping my mouth shut. All I'm asking for is one back.

-Hey! -Are you spying on us? I wanna talk to you, Lee. -Forget it. -Fine. Wonder if your mom knows her precious little Mei-Mei has been flaunting the panda all over school. (GIRLS GASPING)
