Sign: Principal's Office

Noise: (BANG)(BA-BANG)(BANG)

Man: Wh,
	What happened, sir?!

Principal: It's nothing.

Principal: All I need to do is look over these documents by 2, right?

Man: Yes,
	that's all.
	It's been such a quiet day.
	Even for summer vacation, it seems practically abandoned here.

Principal: If you knew the reason why,
	you wouldn't have dragged me in here to do this stupid task in the first place...
	(mutter mutter)

Man: Sir?

Principal: Nothing.

Man: Oh.
	Well then,
	I'll just be out here.

Mother: Whew,
	it's a hot one.

Father: He won, dear...
	Hiro-chan.

Mother: Ooh!

Mother: Hikari must be so excited right now.

Father: No, Hide-chan's team still has to play.
	She won't celebrate until after that.

Mother: Actually,
	Hide-chan might be more excited than Hikari is.

Father: ...he might be.
	Just think about it...

Father: The two
	of them,
	actually going...
	to the Koshien?

Mother: Wouldn't that be great?

Father: Great?
	You're joking.
	It would be TOO great.

Koga: So anyways,
	you can finally go back to your homes and get some rest tonight.

 - Page 15 -

Koga: Tomorrow you will receive phone calls that spell out our upcoming schedule.
	You can't be expected to know what to do next unless someone spells it out for you.
	How should I say this?
	I know it doesn't quite feel real yet...
	Well, now that we've established this isn't a dream...  (owww)

Koga: ...it's time,
	for the Koshien.

Team: YEAAHHHH

Principal: (BANG)

Noda: Are you all packed up,
	Hiro?

Hiro: Go on ahead.
	I need to use the bathroom.

Haruka: Did you know
	that we don't have a baseball team at this school?

Hiro: I heard you've got a club, though.

Haruka: But it will never be the official school team.
	Because our principal hates high school baseball.

Hiro: I see.
	That must be tough.

Haruka: Yeah.

Haruka: It was...
	It sure was tough.

Noda: That's the longest piss I've ever heard of.
