GOB stood up on stage and began to speak when the group was assembled. "Okay, kids, last week you picked out your entrance music. So today, we're going to start with you taking the stage to it and introducing yourself. You might be wondering why you didn't you introduce yourself last week. That's because last week you were nobody. This week, you have entrance music. That gives you the potential to be somebody."

"Give your music selections to Mr. Tino over there and prepare to make a grand entrance. Your entrance is what makes you a star. When you come on stage, you have to own the stage. Dance moves, quick illusions, taking your pants off, whatever you have to do to get the audience under your thrall." Tino whispered something to GOB. "Good call, Tino. Don't take your pants off during a school-sponsored workshop. Own the stage without losing any clothing. And if you can own the stage successfully, the audience is your whore. So have the band play your music, try to make us your whore, and tell us a little about yourself."

"When we're all done with that, we're going to focus on improv comedy. You'll pair up with whoever, get up there, and try to make me laugh. If I laugh, you'll get a free drink from the bar!" Tino leaned over and whispered something. "Really? Fine. Mr. Tino wants me to let you know that it should be something non-alcoholic. Mr. Tino here says that if I give you free booze, the school might have problems with that. Personally, I think he's being a jerk, but I like you nobodies enough that I'm not going to risk getting pulled from the class."

"Okay, let me go and introduce myself, then you can follow suit."

"Yes!"

*flails*

"No!"

*flails*

"There's no good way to answer that question! And I'm still not gay!"

Nadia patted Jamie on the shoulder sympathetically. "Okay, Jamie," she said in a placating tone. "We believe you,"

"Really?"

"No."

"Not. Gay."

"Okay. . . ."

Suddenly the duplicate of Jamie with the sock puppet hops onto stage and does a little softshoe routine.

"Do not be fooled! The boy is really into tube socks! Mwahahahaha!" cackled the sock puppet as the crazed Jamie runs away.

Original Jamie? He's facepalmin of course.

Nadia smirked like a smirking thing that smirks. "Do I want to know how the sock knows that?"

"What? You're going to believe... that?"

"Why shouldn't I? Socks are very trustworthy. ~~like Precious Roy. He'd never steer me wrong. . . .~~"

"Okay... you do realize that was just a wacky version of me making the sock talk. I mean his lips were moving and everything."

"So now I'm not supposed to believe what you say?"

"That was just a wacky side of me that was-"

The version of Jamie with the bad gold jewelry hops on the stage and grabs the microphone out of Jamie's hand.

"Listen up fools! Mama didn't raise no dope! Stay in school! Stay away from Murduck and his crazy socks!"

He hands Jamie back the microphone and struts offstage.

Jamie facepalmed again. "Okay... I think my duplicates are just way into character here."

"This is what happens when you lie to yourself and deny who you really are."

Nadia looked from one Jamie to another and shook her head sadly.

"I'm not gay! Really! Give me a chance with a girl and I'll have sex with her! And enjoy it!"

"Okay, which girl?" Nadia asked brightly and innocently.

Jamie flushed slightly at the question.

"Any girl in Fandom. They're all hot. Except for you because that would be weird."

Nadia considered going the evil girl route and claiming to think that that meant Jamie thought she wasn't hot, but decided against it. "But liking girls doesn't prove that you don't like boys. Just look at my boyfriend, for example."

"I don't like guys!"

"Okay, prove it."

"We've been over this part already."

GOB made a note to tell Sock Love here that he could probably buy some time for himself at the Sin while the socks were going at it.

Just in case he felt the need to prove anything,
