[Open on Boscha with her hair down in her bedroom, which is filled with various trophies. She looks into her mirror.]

Boscha: You are talented. You are a star. You may be hated, so long as you are feared.

[As she speaks, she puts her hair into the usual bun then stands up, putting on a varsity jacket before heading for the door.]

Boscha: Most important of all, you are a winner.

[Boscha rips off a page of her calendar before walking out the door, revealing the whole month has been marked "Grudgby Season". Cut to Boscha walking through Bonesborough dribbling a grudgby ball, passing several mesmerized onlookers.]

Old Woman 1: There she goes, captain of the Banshees. Off to win another championship for Hexside.

Old Woman 2: [To her child.] Why can't you be more like her?

[Her child breathes in deeply with an annoyed expression. Boscha approaches Hexside, with a banner reading "Go get 'em, Banshees" magically unfurling over the school. Skara, Amelia, and Cat form up behind Boscha.]

Boscha: Alright, girls. You know the drill. Captain goes first. [Enters the school.] Hello, Hexside! Your star has arrived. Groveling line starts here. [Looks around.] Something's not right. Nobody's here!

[Students are laughing from a distance. Boscha peers around a corner, spotting a crowd of students gathered around Willow, who is holding a potted plant.]

Hexside Student: No way!

Potions Student: Do me next. Do me!

[Willow uses her magic, the plant sprouting a fruit looking like the potions student's face. The student takes it.]

Potions Student: Welcome to the world, little buddy. You're the coolest, Willow.

Willow: [Blushing.] Aw, shucks!

Bird Student: Yeah, Willow rules!

Boscha: [Walking past with her posse.] Wow, she has to make friends out of plants. How sad.

Amity: [Entering.] Oh, please! You know, I used to be like you, Boscha, obsessed with status, challenging my competition. But I grew up. When will you?

[The crowd of students laugh.]

Boscha: Oh, this is not gonna fly.

-Theme Song-

[Cut to outside of Hexisde. Eda, Luz, and Lena fly in on Eda's staff.]

Luz: My first grudgby season! I'm so excited, I have more school spirit than the school spirits!

Lena: Oh Luz! You're always fired up.

[Camera pans to a ghost holding pom-poms.]

Ghost: Why do I even bother? [Groans and floats away.]

Eda: Ah, grudgby season is the best. You know, I used to play, back in my gory days.

Luz: You mean "glory days"?

Eda: Well, that too. I was unstoppable on the field. I had the best moves and the best cheats.

Luz: Cheating isn't anything to brag about. How do you know you were any good if all you did was cheat your way to victory?

Lena: Yeah! I was the head cheerleader back in my school.

Eda: Ugh. What do humans know, with your goody-goody attitude? If "cheaters never prosper", why was I the star player?
