1
00:00:05,255 --> 00:00:07,966
Extra, extra!
Read all about it!
2
00:00:07,966 --> 00:00:10,719
School newspaper goes bust!
3
00:00:10,719 --> 00:00:12,596
A real live newspaper?
4
00:00:12,596 --> 00:00:14,639
Like beepers,
phonographs and me,
5
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:15,932
I thought
these things were dead.
6
00:00:15,932 --> 00:00:17,643
Yeah. This is
the last edition
7
00:00:17,643 --> 00:00:19,227
of The Brighton Middle
School Bugle.
8
00:00:19,227 --> 00:00:20,896
We lost our funding
in budget cuts.
9
00:00:20,896 --> 00:00:22,314
This is an outrage!
10
00:00:22,314 --> 00:00:23,649
Journalism is about truth,
11
00:00:23,649 --> 00:00:25,275
no matter where it takes us!
12
00:00:25,275 --> 00:00:27,235
School spirit
suffocates in silence.
13
00:00:27,235 --> 00:00:29,488
This cannot, will not--
14
00:00:29,488 --> 00:00:31,406
You didn't even know
there was a school
paper, did you?
15
00:00:31,406 --> 00:00:33,492
No, I did not!
But now that I do,
16
00:00:33,492 --> 00:00:36,203
we will save The Bugle!
17
00:00:36,203 --> 00:00:38,580
Listen up, everybody.
The Bugle needs a makeover.
18
00:00:38,580 --> 00:00:40,207
A total overhaul.
19
00:00:40,207 --> 00:00:41,875
You picking up
what I'm putting down?
20
00:00:41,875 --> 00:00:44,753
- You smelling what I'm cooking?
- I smell it!
21
00:00:44,753 --> 00:00:47,422
As your advisor,
I advise you
22
00:00:47,422 --> 00:00:50,759
to keep your enthusiasm
to a dull roar.
23
00:00:52,344 --> 00:00:53,929
Right. Sorry, Mr. Pham.
24
00:00:53,929 --> 00:00:55,555
Andrea, you're
on culture and fashion.
25
00:00:55,555 --> 00:00:57,224
I'll give you
the who wore what,
26
00:00:57,224 --> 00:00:59,393
when, where
and why it was a mistake.
27
00:00:59,393 --> 00:01:01,561
Sheila,
you're my go-to sports gal.
28
00:01:01,561 --> 00:01:03,105
I'll knock it out of the park.
29
00:01:03,105 --> 00:01:05,107
Nashua, cafeteria food critic.
30
00:01:05,107 --> 00:01:07,109
Lunch lady Olga
doesn't pull punches.
31
00:01:07,109 --> 00:01:08,944
Neither will I.
32
00:01:08,944 --> 00:01:11,530
Uh, boss, what about me?
33
00:01:11,530 --> 00:01:14,574
I need a hard-hitting piece
worthy of our front page.
34
00:01:14,574 --> 00:01:17,744
Something so juicy
even The Perfektborg
Post will be jealous.
35
00:01:17,744 --> 00:01:20,622
Sounds like a job for...
36
00:01:20,622 --> 00:01:23,625
The Bloodhound of Truth.
37
00:01:23,625 --> 00:01:25,961
And The Scoop-Snoop!
38
00:01:27,629 --> 00:01:29,464
Come on, who calls you that?
39
00:01:29,464 --> 00:01:32,008
Look, you want the help
of a supernatural entity
40
00:01:32,008 --> 00:01:34,386
that can make himself invisible,
glide through solid walls,
41
00:01:34,386 --> 00:01:35,971
and knows all the best
lunch spots, or not?
42
00:01:37,431 --> 00:01:40,725
Okay, Scoop-Snoop, let's rock.
43
00:01:42,352 --> 00:01:45,397
Now for the dirty work,
selling ads.
44
00:01:45,397 --> 00:01:47,357
I've been out here all day,
45
00:01:47,357 --> 00:01:49,443
and the only ad I've sold
is to Weird Larry.
46
00:01:49,443 --> 00:01:51,236
I really don't think
that Baby Skunk Daycare
47
00:01:51,236 --> 00:01:52,320
is going to take off
like he hopes,
48
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:53,447
but I do love his enthusiasm.
49
00:01:53,447 --> 00:01:55,866
Well, only one business left.
50
00:01:55,866 --> 00:01:58,743
Save The Bugle!
Save democracy!
51
00:01:58,743 --> 00:02:00,787
Welcome to Flavor Burger.
52
00:02:00,787 --> 00:02:03,331
Would you like to try
our new 100% turnip burger?
53
00:02:03,331 --> 00:02:05,459
Was that a yes?
54
00:02:05,459 --> 00:02:07,002
Pull up to the next window.
55
00:02:07,002 --> 00:02:08,879
What do you say, Miss Fiamma?
56
00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:10,589
Are you in to protect
our freedom of press
57
00:02:10,589 --> 00:02:13,133
by sponsoring an ad
in The Brighton Bugle?
58
00:02:13,133 --> 00:02:15,093
Well, we do need
to advertise
59
00:02:15,093 --> 00:02:18,013
our new 100%
Brighton Turnip Burger. Heh.
60
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:22,225
Ah, what the heck?
61
00:02:22,225 --> 00:02:23,977
I'm supporting
local turnip farmers.
62
00:02:23,977 --> 00:02:26,229
I might as well support
local journalism, too.
63
00:02:26,229 --> 00:02:27,856
Let's go for it.
We'll take a full page
64
00:02:27,856 --> 00:02:29,191
in every future edition
of The Bugle.
65
00:02:29,191 --> 00:02:30,817
Back off!
66
00:02:30,817 --> 00:02:32,736

We always protect our sources
at The Bugle,
94
00:03:42,889 --> 00:03:44,849
especially when it's my brother.
95
00:03:44,849 --> 00:03:47,143
Darryl, I don't know how,
but I think they're on to you.
96
00:03:47,143 --> 00:03:48,562
"I couldn't help but wonder,
97
00:03:48,562 --> 00:03:50,438
was I wearing the clothes,
98
00:03:50,438 --> 00:03:52,899
or were the clothes
wearing me?"
99
00:03:52,899 --> 00:03:56,778
Mr. Mayor, the story
prints with or without
a comment from Goldie!
100
00:03:56,778 --> 00:04:00,240
- Finished, boss!
- Nashua, this is not
six column inches.
101
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,491
Get it down to a page.
102
00:04:01,491 --> 00:04:03,368
I can't possibly do justice
103
00:04:03,368 --> 00:04:05,453
to square-shaped pizza
in one page.
104
00:04:05,453 --> 00:04:09,082
The spice blend, the slice
of technique. The mouthfeel.
105
00:04:09,082 --> 00:04:11,209
Turnips! Ugh...
106
00:04:11,209 --> 00:04:13,128
One page.
107
00:04:13,128 --> 00:04:14,879
And stop saying "mouthfeel."
It's freaking people out.
108
00:04:14,879 --> 00:04:17,674
The angles,
the facial expressions.
109
00:04:17,674 --> 00:04:19,968
These photos really
tell a story.
110
00:04:19,968 --> 00:04:23,680
And that story is I have this
for four to six weeks.
111
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,557
Way to take one
for the team, Sheila.
112
00:04:25,557 --> 00:04:27,392
Libby, you got
my front page story?
113
00:04:27,392 --> 00:04:28,977
Is it juicy, in-depth,
hard-hitting?
114
00:04:28,977 --> 00:04:31,062
Uh, it will be.
115
00:04:31,062 --> 00:04:32,856
It will be?
116
00:04:32,856 --> 00:04:35,275
This is the headline story, Libby.
117
00:04:35,275 --> 00:04:38,111
We need it to make readers
salivate, and we need it now!
118
00:04:38,111 --> 00:04:39,404
Or do you want us
to put out a paper
119
00:04:39,404 --> 00:04:41,156
with a blank first page?
120
00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:45,744
That is not what Flavor Burger
is paying us for!
121
00:04:45,744 --> 00:04:49,623
Don't worry, boss,
it'll be ready
by the time we go to print.
122
00:04:49,623 --> 00:04:51,625
That was a blatant lie.
123
00:04:51,625 --> 00:04:55,211
I know! There's got to be
a story around here somewhere.
124
00:04:55,211 --> 00:04:57,213
Buglers! Dee-da-dee!
125
00:04:57,213 --> 00:04:59,716
The librarian is waiting to go
to press on this edition.
126
00:04:59,716 --> 00:05:02,510
The future of journalism
depends on us!
127
00:05:02,510 --> 00:05:04,387
Delivery from Flavor Burger,
128
00:05:04,387 --> 00:05:08,516
where the odds of flavor
are always in your favor.
129
00:05:09,768 --> 00:05:12,854
"Hope these 100% Brighton
Turnip Burgers fuel
130
00:05:12,854 --> 00:05:15,273
your quest
for truth and justice."
131
00:05:15,273 --> 00:05:17,359
Ha! I'd say integrity
is its own reward,
132
00:05:17,359 --> 00:05:19,152
but this is pretty good, too.
133
00:05:19,152 --> 00:05:22,030
100% Brighton turnips? Ugh.
134
00:05:22,030 --> 00:05:23,239
Do I even want to try this?
135
00:05:28,328 --> 00:05:30,038
Oh, is it that bad?
136
00:05:30,038 --> 00:05:32,415
No, that good!
137
00:05:32,415 --> 00:05:34,292
This is delicious!
138
00:05:34,292 --> 00:05:37,087
Celery, carrot, oregano,
139
00:05:37,087 --> 00:05:40,840
and something else,
but I can't place it.
140
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:42,759
It's delightful, but strange.
141
00:05:44,260 --> 00:05:46,304
These are the best burgers
I've ever had.
142
00:05:46,304 --> 00:05:48,807
How did Flavor Burger make
turnips taste this delicious?
143
00:05:48,807 --> 00:05:50,558
It's impossible.
144
00:05:50,558 --> 00:05:52,268
You thinking
what I'm thinking?
145
00:05:52,268 --> 00:05:55,105
Uh-huh. Something stinks
at Flavor Burger.
146
00:05:59,943 --> 00:06:03,363
Here's the real scandal.
Why would anyone throw away
147
00:06:03,363 --> 00:06:04,572
perfectly good chicken nuggets?
148
00:06:08,451 --> 00:06:09,911
This stake-out is a bust.
149
00:06:09,911 --> 00:06:11,913
Maybe there's no story here.
150
00:06:11,913 --> 00:06:13,873
Maybe they've
made turnips tasty.
151
00:06:13,873 --> 00:06:16,126
You and I both know
that is impossible.
152
00:06:23,049 --> 00:06:24,467
Wait a minute!
153
00:06:24,467 --> 00:06:25,885
That sign is faker
154
00:06:25,885 --> 00:06:27,512
than Ezekiel Tugbottom's legacy.
155
00:06:32,350 --> 00:06:34,352
Something is fishy here.
156
00:06:34,352 --> 00:06:35,854
Ooh, tell me about it.
157
00:06:38,857 --> 00:06:40,692
Oh, you meant Flavor Burger.
158
00:06:40,692 --> 00:06:42,652
Yeah, yeah, something's
messed up for sure.
159
00:06:51,369 --> 00:06:54,164
She just threw away the turnips.
160
00:06:54,164 --> 00:06:56,833
But they're the main ingredient
in the Flavor Burgers.
161
00:06:56,833 --> 00:06:59,085
Unless they're not.
162
00:07:13,141 --> 00:07:14,934
Flavor Burgers
are made of...
163
00:07:14,934 --> 00:07:16,519
Perfektborg Parsnips?
164
00:07:19,272 --> 00:07:22,567
They're serving burger
with a side of lies.
165
00:07:22,567 --> 00:07:24,402
You wanted hard-hitting?
166
00:07:24,402 --> 00:07:27,155
Well, this story hits
like a ton of bricks.
167
00:07:27,155 --> 00:07:30,116
Perfektborg Parsnips.
Of course!
168
00:07:30,116 --> 00:07:32,952
I knew there was a delicious
ingredient I couldn't identify.
169
00:07:34,245 --> 00:07:37,040
I mean, a disgusting ingredient
170
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,833
that shall never grace
this tongue again.
171
00:07:40,543 --> 00:07:42,170
Great work, Libby!
172
00:07:42,170 --> 00:07:43,838
Just the kind of story
that proves why
173
00:07:43,838 --> 00:07:45,590
we need a school paper
to begin with.
174
00:07:45,590 --> 00:07:48,134
But if we run it,
we'll lose our biggest sponsor.
175
00:07:48,134 --> 00:07:49,677
And The Bugle will shut down.
176
00:07:49,677 --> 00:07:50,970
And we won't be able to report
177
00:07:50,970 --> 00:07:52,680
on any other stories ever again.
178
00:07:59,229 --> 00:08:01,481
What am I going to do?
179
00:08:01,481 --> 00:08:03,733
I set out to save The Bugle.
180
00:08:03,733 --> 00:08:06,236
- If I run the story, we're sunk.
- Well, I mean, uh...
181
00:08:06,236 --> 00:08:07,987
Can I really bury
a story like this?
182
00:08:07,987 --> 00:08:09,781
Could I even call
myself a journalist?
183
00:08:09,781 --> 00:08:11,282
- Um...
- But then again...
184
00:08:11,282 --> 00:08:13,159
what good is journalism
if there is no paper?
185
00:08:13,159 --> 00:08:15,954
Do I silence the story
or The Bugle?
186
00:08:15,954 --> 00:08:19,499
Well, it seems like you don't
actually want my input here,
187
00:08:19,499 --> 00:08:22,377
so I'm just going to let
you figure this out on your own.
188
00:08:22,377 --> 00:08:26,256
A wise person once told me,
journalism is about truth,
189
00:08:26,256 --> 00:08:28,633
no matter where it takes us.
190
00:08:28,633 --> 00:08:31,344
Using my own words
against me, that hurts.
191
00:08:38,351 --> 00:08:39,602
They'll thank me one day.
192
00:08:43,898 --> 00:08:48,236
Parsnips? From Perfektborg?
How could they?
193
00:08:57,745 --> 00:08:59,789
Flavor Burger Betrays Brighton!
194
00:08:59,789 --> 00:09:01,291
Turn down the flavor!
195
00:09:04,586 --> 00:09:06,337
Flavor Burger Betrays Brighton!
196
00:09:06,337 --> 00:09:08,339
Turn down the flavor!
197
00:09:08,339 --> 00:09:11,551
You don't understand!
You can't make turnips tasty!
198
00:09:11,551 --> 00:09:13,887
I tried. I really tried.
199
00:09:15,013 --> 00:09:16,598
Wow, takes guts, McGee,
200
00:09:16,598 --> 00:09:18,224
I'm proud of you.
201
00:09:18,224 --> 00:09:20,727
Yeah.
The people deserve to know.
202
00:09:20,727 --> 00:09:23,771
I mean, sure, Flavor Burger
pulled their funding,
203
00:09:23,771 --> 00:09:26,983
but maybe, somehow,
the paper will be fine.
204
00:09:26,983 --> 00:09:29,360
I'm just going to have
a positive mental attitude.
205
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:30,945
Everything will be all...
206
00:09:30,945 --> 00:09:32,864
Right, team,
we're all out of a job.
207
00:09:32,864 --> 00:09:34,949
It's been an honor to be
208
00:09:34,949 --> 00:09:38,286
your editor-in-chief
for the 16 whole hours.
209
00:09:38,286 --> 00:09:40,580
I'm sorry that
it's had to end like this.
210
00:09:40,580 --> 00:09:45,209
I guess that's the price
you pay for integrity, so...
211
00:09:51,382 --> 00:09:53,968
Guys!
You know I've always wanted
212
00:09:53,968 --> 00:09:55,470
a slow clap just for me!
213
00:09:57,013 --> 00:09:58,640
Is this The Brighton Bugle
newsroom?
214
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,892
I want to buy
an ad for my bakery.
215
00:10:00,892 --> 00:10:02,435
- Us, too.
- Me three!
216
00:10:02,435 --> 00:10:04,062
But you all
turned me down yesterday.
217
00:10:04,062 --> 00:10:05,521
That was before you became
218
00:10:05,521 --> 00:10:07,440
the number one news source
in town.
219
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,276
Joanie Pataky just
announced it this morning.
220
00:10:10,276 --> 00:10:12,820
Joanie Pataky with KWP,
221
00:10:12,820 --> 00:10:15,323
now your number two source
for local news
222
00:10:15,323 --> 00:10:17,533
behind The Brighton
Middle School Bugle.
223
00:10:17,533 --> 00:10:20,620
I didn't go
to grad school for this!
224
00:10:25,458 --> 00:10:27,877
Team, The Bugle is saved!
225
00:10:27,877 --> 00:10:29,045
Democracy wins!
226
00:10:31,130 --> 00:10:35,176
What did I say about keeping
the enthusiasm to a minimum?
227
00:10:38,888 --> 00:10:41,140
