Submission Reel
Jo: "I'm here in Scottsdale, Arizona, ready to help a family. Come take a look."

???: "Hi, I'm Robert."

???: "And I'm Belinda."

Robert and Belinda: "We're the Panizzas."

Belinda: "My husband is a firefighter and I work at a nail salon. We have Imogen who's 12, Leon who's 11, and Jana who is 9 1/2."

Robert: "Imogen is our main problem in this house."

Belinda: "She screams."

Imogen: [screaming] "HEY!!!!"

Robert: "She's been dating an older guy named Lucas, which we don't approve of."

[Lucas and Imogen are in the car, kissing]

Belinda: "She uses too much MySpace, limiting her homework time."

Introduction
[Jo arrives at a small cottage]

Jo: "Hi, you must be Belinda. I'm Jo. Nice to meet you. Where's Robert?"

Belinda: "He's at work."

Jo: "Where are the children?"

Belinda: "Imogen is staying after school serving detention."

Jo: "Why's that?"

Belinda: "Constantly yelling at school, and physically hitting another student."

Observation Begins
[Belinda is making Turkey sandwiches for lunch]

Imogen: "Can I have some gummy worms, please?"

Belinda: "No, sweetheart. We will begin lunch soon."

Jo: "When Imogen's mother said that there will be no gummy worms until lunch is over, Imogen began to throw a raging fit."

Imogen: "I WANT GUMMY WORMS!"

Belinda: "You can have them when lunch ends."

Imogen: "YOU FUCKING GOBLIN! I WANT TO EAT GUMMY WORMS NOW!"

Belinda: "Come sit down with your family and ignore the worms. You can have them later."

Imogen: "I AM NOT IGNORING THEM YOU STUPID BITCH!"

[Imogen flips Belinda off]

Belinda: "You do not talk to me like that Imogen! You don't flip me off either."

Imogen: "I love gummy worms a lot, but I'm not allowed to eat them at lunchtime and that makes me disappointed."

Jo: As Imogen was continuing to protest, I wanted to talk to Leon and Jana about their sister's behavior.

Jo: "Does Imogen always behave like this?"

Jana: "I think most of the time."

Leon: "I agree."

Leon: "My sister Imogen is not being a good girl."

Leon: "You see, she was kicked out of a private boarding school this year. Mom tried to improve her attitude by sending her to every facility she could think of, such as military school, a Theraputic Boarding School, boot camp, adventure therapy, residential treatment center, behavior modification camp, behavior management, outdoor education and wilderness therapy,"

Jana: "Imogen even started drinking, smoking cigarettes and doing drugs."

Leon: "And in Christmas, Imogen got coal in her stocking and an angry note from Santa Claus."

Jana: "She decided to spend the holidays with some guy who was older than her."

Observation Continues
[Imogen is chatting with her boyfriend on her cellphone]

Imogen: "Hey Lucas, how are you?"

[Belinda is having a chat with Jo]

Belinda: "I don't understand what is going on with Imogen. When she was in elementary school, she used to dress all happy and perky. Now that she's in middle school, she had a change in clothing choice--goth clothing, she even dyed her hair black with red streaks, it used to be blonde. She also got her ears, nose and belly button pierced! Last week, I found rolling papers, nail polish, hairspray, bottles of eye drops, pipes, perfume, correction fluid and incense in her room a couple of days ago. She also stole money out of my purse. Her grades in school are declining. She dropped her old friends in elementary school and began hanging around with people whom the family did not know. It's like there's a stranger living in the house."

Jo: "Now Belinda, Jana and Leon told me that Christmas has been ruined by Imogen. Why was that?"

Belinda: "You see, she shoplifted some items from a store when we went shopping. She stole money out of my purse to buy a present for her 19-year-old boyfriend Lucas. She decided to spend the holidays with an illegal immigrant from Mexico rather than with the family. Due to this she got coal in her stocking and a note from Santa Claus as her only Christmas present."

Jo: "My word."

Jo: "I saw this episode before. Dealing with the Ikins' 14-year-old son before, I could see teenagers acting like this. But, a 12-year old? It felt like a Maury Povich episode... Again."

Parent Meeting
Jo: "Let's talk about Imogen's boyfriend."

Belinda: "Lucas was originally from Mexico. He came to this country illegally."

Jo: "I cannot believe that he came here illegally."

Robert: "He is 19 years old."

Jo: "Does that make a huge age difference?! I guess he is approximately 7 years older than Imogen herself."

Belinda: "Exactly. In Mexico, he was arrested and charged for drug possession and trafficking before he came to the United States."

Jo: "Also, let's talk about Imogen's obsession with drugs."

Belinda: "I was beginning to suspect that she was on drugs when I found pipes and sorts of random things I talked about in her room. I even heard from a neighbor saying that she was smoking pot."

Robert: "We had to pick Imogen up from school because she had been getting a string of after-school detentions."

House Rules
Jo: "I'm here today to introduce the house rules."

Jo: "The household needed some structure, organization, discipline, and of course, rules."

Jo: "Rule number 1: Everybody must speak politely. Rule number 2: Cell phones must be turned off after 7:00pm on week nights/ 8:00pm on weekends..."

Imogen: "When I heard what Jo said about cell phones being turned off, I was like, 'What? Is she for real?'"

Jo: "Rule number three: MySpace is a privilege which you earn for up to 1 hour per day."

Imogen: "Has this lady lost her mind?!"

Imogen: "I strongly disagree with that. I STRONGLY disagree!"

Jo: [raises her voice] "STOP IT, IMOGEN!! YOU NEED TO AGREE WITH THAT, OKAY?!?!? THESE RULES ARE IMPORTANT!!!"

Imogen: "BUT I HATE THESE RULES IN THE HOUSE!!!!!"

Belinda: "Sorry, Imogen, but the rules are there and that is final!"

Imogen: "These rules shouldn't be even on there. I want to go on MySpace and chat with my friends all day long and talk to them on my cell phone!"

Belinda: "You can only go on the site for 1 hour at once and we can't remove those rules."

Jo: "Imogen did not agree with the rules, and she was not happy at all."

Imogen: [to Jo] "You're a bitch!!!! I WILL NEVER GET TO DO ANYTHING ON MYSPACE AND MY CELL PHONE!"

Jo: "YOU DO NOT CALL ME BAD NAMES, IMOGEN! THAT LANGUAGE WILL NOT BE TOLERATED RIGHT NOW!!"

[Imogen storms off]

Belinda: "Imogen, please. Come back."

Jo: "IMOGEN, GET BACK HERE!!!!"

Imogen: "NO! I DON'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS (bleep!) WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO GIVE UP MY FUCKING MYSPACE PRIVILEGES!!! THIS IS ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT!"

Belinda: "I've never seen Imogen lose it like that. It was quite scary."

Belinda: "Imogen, open this door."

Imogen: "LEAVE ME ALONE!!!"

Jo: "Imogen, this is NOT the way you talk to people like that! And I mean it!"

Jo: "Imogen was very hostile. She did not want to listen at all."

Belinda: "Dad and I are trying to make things better for this family, Imogen. We're not trying to be mean."

Imogen: "FUCK OFF!!!"

Jo: "YOU DO NOT SWEAR AT ANYBODY!!!"

Imogen: "I was so mad that Mom had decided to cut off my time on MySpace."

Imogen: (now crying) "YOU DON'T WANT ME HAVING A LIFE! YOU WOULD RATHER ME LOCKED IN THIS STUPID HOUSE ALL DAY!"

Belinda: "Oh, Imogen."

Jo: "Imogen, STOP THIS NONSENCE ALREADY!!"

Jana: "This is the first time that I've seen my sister have a major meltdown. I don't like it when she acts like this.Though it was quite funny actually."

Calm Down Zone for Imogen
Jo: "Two hours later, Imogen was still arguing with Belinda. So, I decided to step in."

Jo: "Imogen, listen to me."

Imogen: "I don't need to listen to you. You come into this house and try and change everything. Who the fuck do you think you are?!?"

Jo: "I am a nanny with over 25 years of experience, and I know my job. Imogen, this behavior of yours is unacceptable."

Imogen: "Whatever! (starts shouting) I DON'T CARE IF IT IS FUCKING UNACCEPTABLE! I WANTED TO HAVE GUMMY WORMS BEFORE LUNCHTIME AND HAVE SO MUCH TIME ON THE FUCKING COMPUTER TALKING TO MY FRIENDS AT SCHOOL WITH MYSPACE YOU BITCH!"

Jo: [yelling even louder] "IF YOU EVER SHOUT AT ME AGAIN ONE MORE TIME, YOU'LL BE GOING STRAIGHT INTO THE CALM DOWN ZONE!!!!"

Imogen: "TRY ME YOU BITCH WORKING FOR A QUARTER OF A FUCKING CENTURY, WHAT AN OLD FUCKING HAG!!!!!!"

Belinda: "I don't remember seeing you ask for something so much in my life."

Jo: "Finally, Imogen is disciplined via the Calm Down Zone."

[Belinda walks by and takes Imogen to the Calm Down Zone and screams at her]

Belinda: "I WILL NOT TOLERATE YOUR ATTITUDE AND BACK TALK-TALK, BECAUSE IT IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!!! YOU NEED TO TAKE A BREAK AND STAY THERE FOR 12 MINUTES, RIGHT!?!"

Imogen: "JUST FUCK OFF!!!!"

Belinda: "DON'T YOU DARE SWEAR AT ME!!!"

[Belinda confiscates Imogen's cell phone]

Imogen: "You're not taking my cell phone away from me!"

Belinda: "YOU REALLY SHOULD'VE THOUGHT THAT TWICE BEFORE YOU DECIDED TO GIVE ME THAT BAD ATTITUDE, SO YOU'RE NOT GETTING THAT STUPID CELL PHONE BACK!!!!!"

[Puts Imogen's cell phone in her purse]

Imogen: (screaming and crying) "YOU'RE NOT TAKING MY CELL PHONE AWAY FROM ME!!!!!"

[Belinda goes over to Imogen. She looks furious and screams at her again]

Belinda: "IMOGEN, STOP THAT NOW!!! I AM REALLY NOT IN THE MOOD FOR THAT ATTITUDE!!!!!!!!"

Jo: "And then, Imogen slapped her mother in the face! I was SO angry!"

Jo: "IMOGEN, YOU DO NOT SLAP YOUR MOTHER BECAUSE THAT BEHAVIOUR IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!"

Imogen: "FUCK OFF JO!"

Jo: "HEY! If you do another negative action, I am going to raise my voice at you."

Imogen: "DO IT BITCH!!! I DON'T CARE!!!"

Jo: "KNOCK IT OFF, IMOGEN!"

Imogen: "SHUT UP YOU BITCH!"

Jo: "She just wouldn't stop."

Imogen: "I HATE YOU, AND I WISH YOU WERE DEAD!"

[Imogen grabs a nearby crystal vase and throws it at her mother, who ducks]

Belinda: "Imogen, no! Stop this! You are going to hurt someone!"

Jo: "YOU DO NOT THROW CRYSTAL VASES AT ANYBODY!! THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE!!! THAT IS COMPLETELY NAUGHTY!!!! YOU GOT IT?!? NOW DON'T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!"

Imogen: "I will hurt you if you shut up!"

Belinda: "YOU DO NOT ATTACK YOUR MOTHER LIKE THAT, IMOGEN!!!"

Jo: "EXCUSE ME?!? I DO NOT LIKE THE WAY YOU ARE ACTING FOOLISH TO YOUR MOTHER BECAUSE THAT BEHAVIOUR IS NOT NICE!!!!! YOU NEED TO STAY THERE FOR 12 MINUTES AND DON'T YOU EVER MOVE AGAIN, IMOGEN!!!!!"

Imogen: "Mind your own fucking business, you dorks! Get the fuck out of here!"

[Jo and Belinda leave Imogen in the Calm Zone with no more conversation]

[Imogen escapes and smashes Belinda's laptop]

Belinda: "IMOGEN!!!! NO!!!!! DO NOT SMASH MY LAPTOP!!!!!! THAT WAS BRAND NEW!!!!!"

Jo: "What happened?"

Belinda: "Imogen smashed my laptop. Look at it."

[Jo looks at the smashed laptop]

Jo: "And if Imogen's protest was over, think again!"

[Imogen goes into the lounge room and rips up the House Rules chart]

Imogen: "HERE'S WHAT I THINK OF YOUR STUPID RULES!!!!" [puts the House Rules chart into the fireplace]

Jo: "Imogen, NO!"

Belinda: "PUT THOSE RULES BACK THIS INSTANT!!!"

[Imogen plays very loud Kanye West songs, including "Bound 2", "On Sight", and "New Slaves", on her iPod Touch upstairs with questionable content]

Jo: "Imogen then started to play music on her iPod Touch that has questionable, explicit lyrics that contain a load of profanity."

Jo: "IMOGEN, TURN OFF THAT MUSIC WITH EXPLICIT LANGUAGE RIGHT NOW, OR I'LL TAKE THAT iPOD AWAY FOR CHARITY!!!!!! DO YOU HEAR ME?!?!?!?"

Belinda: "Imogen, I do not appreciate that trashy music!"

Imogen: "AND I DON'T APPRECIATE YOU TAKING AWAY MY MYSPACE TIME AND MY CELL PHONE!!!!"

Belinda: "I was just over Imogen's behavior, so I just stormed downstairs and went into the kitchen and cried my eyes out."

[Belinda sobs]

Belinda: "Imogen hates me. She treats me like garbage, I just don't understand why she hates me. I'm a terrible mother."

Jo: "No, you're not a terrible mother. She's just resisting change because you and Robert have decided to introduce stability into the household."

Jo: "Imogen's behavior was beyond appauling, so I just suggested to Belinda that she send Imogen to bed early."

Belinda: "Imogen, you are going to bed early tonight."

Imogen: "Oh crud. Now I'm in trouble....."

Belinda: "YOU ARE GOING TO BED VERY EARLY TONIGHT, AND I REALLY MEAN IT!!!"

[Robert arrives home]

Robert: "What's been happening darling?"

Belinda: "Oh, it's been quite a rough day, Robert, a lot of drama and all that."

Robert: "What's happened?"

Belinda: "Imogen just disagreed to the new rules regarding the 1-hour a day of MySpace."

Robert: "What did she do?"

Belinda: "Oh, she broke my new laptop, threw the house rules chart into the fireplace, played music with questionable content on her iPod Touch, told me that she wished I were dead, attacked me by chucking a crystal vase at me, and cussed at me and Jo."

Jo: "Hi, I'm Jo Frost. You must be Robert."

Robert: "Hi. Robert Panizza, firefighter. I work 5 to 6 nights a week."

Jo: "Well, it's nice to meet you."

Imogen vs. Jo
Jo: "As I was talking to Robert, Imogen was watching a soap opera on TV."

[Imogen watches Young and the Restless while playing Temple Run on her iPod Touch]

Jo: "Imogen Brunetta Panizza, come here."

Imogen: "No."

Jo: "Imogen, I need to talk to you right now."

Imogen: "FINE!!!!" [turns off the TV and her iPod Touch, then goes over to Belinda]

Jo: "Your behavior today was appalling, destructive and totally disrespectful. Not only is Jo-Jo giving us a new house rules chart, but to make matters worse, you have now lost your cell phone, MySpace time, and your iPod Touch for three whole days! And because of this, you will be going to bed at 7:30 tonight. The cell phone and MySpace rules have changed. Cell phones must be turned off at 7pm on week nights, 6pm for Imogen, 8pm on weekends, 7pm for Imogen. And MySpace is a privilege which you can earn up to 50 minutes per day. Your father is not happy with your behavior either."

Imogen: "I could not believe what I just heard. I lost my cell phone, my MySpace time, and my iPod Touch for 3 days! Jo is torturing me!"

[Imogen's iPod goes in Jo's purse]

Imogen: "You can't tell me what to do. (to Belinda) If I want to go on MySpace or on my fucking cell phone, then I will!"

[Belinda loses it]

Belinda: "I had definitely lost my cool with Imogen. She would not give up her cell phone, her iPod Touch, or her MySpace time without a fight."

Robert: "What is going on in there?"

Belinda: "I can't do this anymore. I just can't deal with this shit!"

[Belinda runs upstairs crying]

Jo: "I was very angry with Imogen by how she disrespected her mother and I just knew that I had to raise my voice."

Jo: "Imogen!"

Imogen: "I'm not talking to you!" (does the 'talk to the hand' gesture to Jo)

Jo: "I'm talking to you, Imogen, I need you to look at me, please."

Imogen: "Well, I'm NOT looking at you! So, don't waste your breath!"

Jo: "Imogen, please. You need to listen. Your behavior towards me and your mother is unacceptable. You need to realize you are hurting your mother emotionally; you are making her feel bad."

Imogen: "I'm not listening. She brought it on herself trying to take away my cell phone and MySpace time!"

[Jo starts to raise her voice louder]

Jo: "THERE IS A PUNISHMENT FOR YOU! WE WILL MAKE SURE YOU'RE A PROPER YOUNG LADY! IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE CONSEQUENCES AND RULES ARE BAD OR EVEN WORSE!!! NOW STOP IT, IMOGEN!"

Imogen: "I dare you to come upstairs and say it!"

Jo: "DO NOT ALLOW ME TO SHOUT THE THING THAT I HAVE SAID EARLIER!"

Announcer: "Coming up on Supernanny, Imogen manages to put Jo to sleep."

Robert: "Imogen, I want you to apologize to Nanny Jo."

Announcer: "But will this Pre-teen terror surrender?"

Imogen vs. Jo: Part 2
Jo: "DO NOT ALLOW ME TO SHOUT THE THING THAT I HAVE SAID EARLIER!"

[Imogen trips Jo over]

Imogen: "Sucked in!"

Jo: "Ouch! Why did you do that, Imogen?"

Imogen: "Because you are not allowed on this universe!"

[Imogen kicks Jo]

Jo: "Imogen, no! You do not kick Jo-Jo. That is not nice."

Imogen: "You need to sleep!"

Robert: "Imogen Panizza!"

Imogen: "Yes, Daddykins?"

Robert: "I need to talk to you right now. In the kitchen."

[Imogen follows Robert]

Robert: "Imogen, I am not very happy with your behavior towards you mother and Nanny Jo Frost."

Imogen: "They won't let me have any fun! I'm allowed to go on my cell phone and MySpace! They're just being mean to me!"

Robert: "I disagree with that, Imogen. Jo is only here to help us so that we can be a happier family."

Imogen: "I don't care, Robert. Now shut the fuck up God damn it!"

Robert: "Imogen."

Imogen: "I'LL JUST PUT JO IN A SURGERY THEN!!!"

'''Jo: "The threat about me being in a surgery was revealed." '''

Robert: "Imogen, I want you to apologize to Nanny Jo."

Imogen: "I ain't apologizing."

Robert: "Imogen, I'm not kidding. Apologize to Jo."

Jo: "Imogen, KNOCK IT OFF NOW!!!"

Imogen: "NO, I WON'T!!!!"

Jo: "As Imogen was continuing her protest, I could see that Leon and Jana were crying from upstairs."

[Jo goes upstairs to see Jana and Leon]

Jo: "Hi. You don't mind if I talk to you two?"

Leon: "Yes." *sniffles*

Leon: "Imogen scares us, and she almost broke my arm on one occasion."

Jo: "What happened?"

Leon: "My sister nearly broke my arm once. I'm scared of her."

[Jana's arm is in a cast]

Jo: "Jana, what is wrong with your arm?"

Jana: "I got bitten by my big sister."

Jana: "Imogen just bit me in the arm. It is so painful."

Jo: "My word, why did she do that?"

Jana: "Because she is nasty and mean."

Jo: "As I was talking to Leon and Jana, Belinda flew down the stairs and resumed punishing Imogen."

Belinda: "Imogen, you are banned from using MySpace for 3 weeks, and you are grounded for a whole month!"

[Imogen goes to punch Belinda's face, however Belinda is prepared]

Belinda: "Don't you dare!"

Jo: "Send her to bed. Because she's been so naughty, send her straight to bed."

Belinda: "Imogen, that is enough. You are going straight to bed tonight."

[Belinda confiscates Imogen's iPod Touch]

[Leon is working on his 3D puzzle in his bedroom while Jana is hiding under her bed]

Belinda: "Go to your room now, Imogen."

[Belinda sends Imogen to her room]

Imogen: "I'LL BE GONE IN THE MORNING!!!"

Belinda: "What are you talking about?"

Imogen: "I'm going out with my boyfriend, Lucas."

[Imogen slams the door]

Jo: "Who's Lucas?"

Belinda: "Some 19-year-old guy she met at the Internet cafe. My husband and I do not approve of him."

Jo: "How come?"

Belinda: "Lucas is 7 years older than her, and he also has a criminal record."

Jo: "I cannot believe that Imogen has dated her 19-year-old boyfriend. I mean, seriously the parents don't approve of him since there is a huge age difference!"

Imogen and Lucas
Imogen: "Lucas is the love of my life and I enjoy being with him."

Lucas: "So, where to, Imogen?"

Imogen: "Let's go to the youth centre."

Lucas: "All right, babe. Hop in my car and let's go."

[Imogen hops into Lucas' car and they drive off]

Jana's 10th Birthday Party Disaster
Jo: "The next day was Jana's 10th birthday, and she was having a pool/barbecue party with all of her friends in the 4th grade class and a local church youth group."

[Beach Party music is playing in the background and there is a big pile of birthday presents on the present table]

Jana: "Ashley, Raina, McKenna, Tyson, Maxine, Emily, Bryce, Julianna, Lauren, Molly, Tom, Josh, and Michael! Hi, guys! Come join the party!"

[On the buffet table are hot dogs, virgin piña colada pops, hamburgers, a vegetable platter, ice cream sundaes, chips, Powerade, Mini beach cups, Virgin Piña coladas, virgin daiquiris, and virgin margaritas, fruit kabobs, tropical fruit salad, watermelon slices, and a Pool Party ice cream cake]

Tyson: "Thanks for inviting us, Jana!"

[On the taco bar table are items such as sour cream, chips, salsa, shredded lettuce, beans, beef, shredded Mexican cheese, guacamole, hard and soft tortillas and chicken]

Emily: "Yeah, I'm so excited! Happy birthday, Jana."

Jana: "Thanks, Emily."

Lauren: "Let's have fun!"

Josh: "Yeah!"

Tyson: "Last one in the pool is a rotten egg!"

Raina: "Cannonball!"

[Imogen changes all of the music and plays heavy metal music with questionable content on it]

Jana: "Hey, what's going on? Who changed the music?"

[Imogen and her friends Katrina, Rochelle, Gina and Angeline start dancing around the pool]

Jana: "Imogen, what are you doing? You're wrecking my party! I thought this was a private party!"

Imogen: "I am not!"

Rochelle: "GO DROWN SLUT!!"

Angeline: (looks at the taco bar) "What's all this junk?"

Jana: "It's a taco bar, where we make our own tacos."

Gina: "You're friends aren't exactly having a great time, Janet!"

Jana: "It's JANA!"

Katrina: "We know that stupid!"

[Imogen's boyfriend Lucas shows up]

Imogen: "Besides, we've booked the pool!"

Jana: "No, you didn't. Mom and dad did, for my party!"

Angeline: "Umm, we booked it first!"

Jana: "Wrong, they booked it about at least a week in advance!"

Imogen: (screaming in Jana's face) "WELL, WE FUCKING BOOKED IT TWO WEEKS IN ADVANCE YOU STUPID slut!!!"

Lucas: "So my girl has it first, loser!"

Belinda: "What's going on out here?"

Imogen/Jana: "WE WANT THE POOL!!!"

Belinda: "It is Jana's party, so Imogen, you do not need to ruin it."

[Imogen grabs the ice-cream cake and smashes it in Jana's face]

Jana: "Ack! I can't see! MOM!"

Belinda: "What is it, Jana?"

Jana: [wiping off her face] "Imogen smashed the ice-cream cake at me."

Belinda: [screaming at Imogen] "YOU KNOW WHAT, IMOGEN, LET'S GO TO THE CALM DOWN ZONE, AND DON'T JOIN IN THE PARTY THIS YEAR, YOUNG LADY!!!"

Imogen: "NO! MY FRIENDS AND I BOOKED THE FUCKING POOL TWO WEEKS AGO!!!! WE DESERVE TO HAVE IT!!!"

Rochelle: "Yeah! Be fair Mrs P!"

[Jo steps in]

Jo: "Is there a problem?"

Lucas: "Who is that old hag?"

Imogen and Jana: "WE BOOKED THE POOL FIRST!!!"

Jo: "What's this about you booking a pool?"

Imogen: "Jana and her lousy friends won't get out of the pool that I SPECIFICALLY booked for me, my boyfriends and my girlfriends to use!"

Jo: "Imogen, this is Jana's birthday party..."

Imogen: "And?"

Lucas: "Listen, you old nag. My girlfriend booked this pool first. So tell Jan to take her party somewhere else if she knows what's good for her."

Jo: "You must be Lucas, Imogen's boyfriend."

Lucas: "Uhh, hi....."

Jo: "FINE IMOGEN BOOKED IT FIRST."

Jana: "IMOGEN, GET THIS IN YOUR PEA-SIZED BRAIN! THE POOL IS MINE! SO GET DORKCAS AND ALL OF YOUR DORKY FRIENDS OUT OF HERE NOW!"

[Jana beats up Imogen's friends]

Jana: "WHO INVITED YOU CRYBABIES TO THE PARTY?!? THAT IS RUDE!"

[Jana kicks all of Imogen's friends and Boyfriend out]

Imogen: "THE POOL IS MINE! I BOOKED IT!"

Jana: "NO! I DID GET IT IN YOUR PLANKTON-SIZED HEAD!"

Imogen: "EVERYONE GET OUT!!!! THIS PARTY IS CANCELLED!!!"

[Everyone leaves except Jana's friends]

Jana: "I HATE YOU IMOGEN YOU STUPID DORK! NO ONE LOVES YOU EXECPT THE STUPID DORKS AND DORKUSS THE STINKY SNEAKER!"

Imogen: "MY BOYFRIEND IS NOT A DORK!"

Jana: "YES HE IS! GO DIE YOU FRIENDS INCLUDING ROCHELLE! I HATE YOU! NO ONE IN THE WHOLE WORLD LOVES YOU!"

[Jana and her friends start throwing food at her then Jana's friends leave]

Jana: "I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY NOW YOU STUPID HEAD! NO ONE LOVES YOU! I WISH YOU WERE DEAD YOU STUPID SORRY EXCUSE FOR A SISTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[Jana runs into the house crying]

Imogen: "KEEP ROLLING THOSE TEARS, AND I'LL THROW YOU OUT OF THE HOUSE!"

[Jo and Belinda drag Imogen in the calm down zone]

Belinda: "You know what Imogen, you are grounded for 2 months and YOU ARE BANNED FROM SEEING LUCAS AND YOUR FRIENDS FOR A YEAR! STAY THERE FOR 90 MINUTES!!!"

[Imogen force-feeds Belinda tabasco sauce]

Imogen: "That'll teach you not to ban me from seeing Lucas and my friends for 365 days!"

[Jo gets unpleased with Imogen and raises her voice]

Jo: "How dare you threaten your mother?!"

Imogen: (sneering) "I dare and I did."

Jo: "I will not tolerate that behavior anymore."

[Imogen force-feeds Jana tabasco sauce]

Jana: "MOMMY!!!! IMOGEN FED ME WITH TABASCO SAUCE!!!!!!!!! HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Belinda: "YOU ARE BANNED FROM SEEING LUCAS AND YOUR FRIENDS FOR TWO YEARS!"

[Imogen force-feeds Belinda tabasco sauce and slaps Belinda's cheek]

Belinda: "YOU DO NOT FORCE-FEED ME WITH TABASCO SAUCE AND SLAP ME IN THE FACE, BECAUSE IF YOU DO, I'M GONNA SLAP YOU RIGHT IN THE FACE BACK!!!!!! THAT'S RIGHT IMOGEN!!! SMACK YOU RIGHT IN THE FACE, SO BE GOOD AND STOP IT RIGHT NOW!!! UNTIL YOU CAN LEARN TO BEHAVE, THERE WILL BE NOTHING FOR YOU! IT COST YOU EVERYTHING UNTIL YOU CAN BEHAVE!"

Jana: "As a matter of fact, it's no wonder Imogen doesn't have any friends at all!"

Imogen: "FUCK YOU, BITCH! If I want to do something, I will do it!"

[Jo's voice gets raised louder]

Jo: "KNOCK IT OFF ALREADY!!!! YOU DO NOT RUIN YOUR LITTLE SISTER'S PARTY!!!!!"

Imogen: "SHUT UP!"

[Imogen kicks Jo in the face]

Jo: "IMOGEN, YOU DO NOT HIT OR KICK ANYBODY!!!!! THAT BEHAVIOUR IS UNNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!!!!"

Belinda vs. Imogen
Jo: "Belinda was so angry with Imogen for ruining Jana's birthday party. Once Belinda grounded Imogen for a week, she started raising her voice."

Belinda: "WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU RUIN YOUR SISTER'S BIG DAY?!?"

Imogen: "I was the one who booked the stinkin' pool first! You don't even care who booked it first! Also, you cancelled my birthday party for no bloody reason last year!"

Belinda: "THE POINT IS THAT JANA'S BIRTHDAY PARTY WAS TODAY! YOU COULD'VE HAD IT TOMORROW! YOU ARE SO SELFISH, IMOGEN BRUNETTA PANIZZA!"

[Imogen is about to hit Belinda]

Belinda: "Don't you dare. If those parents of Jana's friends were to press charges against you, trust me, you'd be in even more serious trouble than you are right now."

[Jo steps in]

Jo: "Imogen...don't do that."

Belinda: "I do not want you to see Lucas anymore. He's too old for you."

Imogen: "NO! I DON'T FUCKING CARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Belinda: "But does he really love you? I seriously doubt it. Lucas is taking advantage of you; he entered this country illegally by crossing the borders without permission."

Imogen: "You don't even care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Belinda: "You should care, not only is Lucas too old for you, but he also has a criminal record for carjacking and drug trafficking! He has been in trouble with the law! He is an illegal immigrant from Mexico who came to this country!"

Imogen: (word by word, more loud and more in horror) "THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO WERE MARRIED IN A 7-YEAR GAP! SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!"

Belinda: "DON'T START THIS NOW!! THERE IS NO SUCH BLOODY THING AS PEOPLE GETTING MARRIED IN A 7-YEAR GAP!!!!! NOW FORGET ABOUT LUCAS AND START THINKING OF OTHERS, YOUNG LADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[Imogen goes to her room and gets out of the house by bedroom window]

Jana: "Mom, where's Imogen?"

Robert: "IMOGEN, GET BACK IN THIS HOUSE NOW!!!!"

[Robert is dragging Imogen back in the house]

Robert: "COME ON!"

[Imogen ]

[Robert lashes out at Imogen and grabs her by her arm]

Robert: "RIGHT THAT IS IT!!! YOU ARE GOING STRAIGHT TO BED RIGHT NOW MISSY!!!!"

Dining Out
Jo: "Later that evening, the family went out to eat dinner at a restaurant called Red Lobster."

[We see the family sitting at the table]

[The waiter brings the family lobster]

Imogen: "Yuck, what is this?"

[Robert sends Imogen in the Calm Down Zone]

Robert: "When you're ready to apologize to the family for how you acted this evening, you can come on out and downstairs."

Onward
Belinda: "Imogen."

Imogen: "Oh my god, leave me alone!"

Belinda: "We really need to talk."

Imogen: "And I just said leave me ALONE!"

Jo (offscreen): "This is not a way to talk to your mother, Imogen!"

Imogen: "Just LEAVE ME ALONE!!"

Belinda: (crying) "DO YOU WANNA GET GROUNDED SOME MORE?!?!"

Imogen: "NOO!!!!"

Belinda: "THEN STOP RIGHT NOW!!!"

Imogen: (crying) "SERIOUSLY, LEAVE ME ALONE!! YOU BOTH ARE DRIVING ME CRAZY AND RUINING MY FUCKING LIFE!!! JUST LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE!!!!!!"

Jo (offscreen): "Why do you keep telling us that?!"

Belinda: "HEY, I'M NOT IN THE MOOD FOR THIS!!! STOP SPEAKING TO ME LIKE THAT!! ALRIGHT?!? IF YOU KEEP SAYING THAT TO ME, THEN YOU'RE GOING STRAIGHT INTO THE CALM DOWN ZONE FOR 144 MINUTES!!!!!!!"

Jo: (offscreen) "144 minutes, Belinda? That'll take 2 hours and 24 minutes, girl! That'll take far too long for Imogen!"

Imogen: "NOW SERIOUSLY JUST LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!!!!!!!!!!"

Belinda: "Imogen, I really need to talk about Lucas."

Imogen: "Lucas loves me and I love him! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO RUIN MY LIFE?"

Belinda: "I AIN'T RUINING YOUR LIFE LIKE THAT, IMOGEN!!! HE'S JUST A MEXICAN CRIMINAL FROM MEXICO, AND IT'S TOO DANGEROUS IF YOU MARRY STRANGERS LIKE THAT!!!!!! SO JUST STOP YELLING AT ME, BECAUSE YOU WERE JUST MAKING ME CRY!!! SO DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!!! DEAL?!?"

[Belinda starts to cry]

Jo (offscreen): "Imogen, ever since you met Lucas, you've been rebelling and fighting against your family...I also found a stash of marijuana in your jean pockets yesterday. Do you know anything about this?"

Later...

Imogen: "I love you Lucas."

Lucus: "I love you too, Imogen."

DVD Meeting
Jo: "After I left for a couple days I came back to show them the footage."

Jo: "So let's take a look at the first clip!"

Belinda: "Imogen Brunetta Panizza, this is your warning. If you don't sit down and eat your lunch, you will be going to the Calm Down Zone and you will lose 30 minutes of MySpace time."

Imogen: "Shut the fuck up!"

Belinda: {yelling} "ALRIGHT, IMOGEN, GET YOUR BUTT INTO THE CALM DOWN ZONE NOW, GIRL!!!!"

Jo: "Imogen was in the Calm Down Zone."

Belinda: "Yes!"

Jo: "Let's move on to the next one!"

Belinda: "Imogen we really need to talk!"

Imogen: "Oh my god, leave me alone, I'm trying to sleep!"

Belinda: {yells} "DO YOU WANNA GET GROUNDED SOME MORE!?!"

Imogen: "NOO!!!"

Belinda: "THEN STOP RIGHT NOW!!!"

Imogen: (crying) SERIOUSLY, LEAVE ME ALONE!! YOU BOTH ARE DRIVING ME CRAZY AND RUINING MY FUCKING LIFE!!! JUST LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE!!!!!!"

Imogen: "NOW SERIOUSLY, JUST LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!!!!!!!!!!"

Belinda: "Imogen, I really need to talk about Lucas."

Imogen: "Lucas loves me and I love him! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO RUIN MY LIFE?"

Belinda: "I AIN'T RUINING YOUR LIFE LIKE THAT, IMOGEN!!! HE'S JUST A MEXICAN CRIMINAL FROM MEXICO, AND IT'S TOO DANGEROUS IF YOU MARRY STRANGERS LIKE THAT!!!!!! SO JUST STOP YELLING AT ME, BECAUSE YOU WERE JUST MAKING ME CRY!!! SO DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN!!!!! DEAL?!?" [starts to cry]

-[Jo stops the DVD]

Jo: "Oh, my word. She keeps saying the same old thing over and over again! And you've also lost your cool too. And the way she made you very emotional, but why were you extending the calm zone for 144 minutes? That was extremely ludicrous."

Belinda: "That's because she yelled at me too much, so I yelled back at her to stay for that extra long."

Jo: "Calm down zone . . . one time . . . 12. 12 minutes, okay? She walks back and does something else, back in for 12, alright?"

Imogen vs. the Babysitter
Jo: "Robert and Belinda decided to go out for dinner. So, they decided to leave Imogen with a young babysitter named Rachael."

Imogen: "Why do I need a babysitter? I'm not a little girl anymore!"

Belinda: "Because of what happened last time!"

Imogen: "Don't you understand? I'm 12 years old, I'm not a child anymore."

Jo: "What did happen last time, Belinda?"

Belinda: "Imogen decided to have Lucas over unsupervised, and they were smoking pot!"

Jo: "Imogen wasn't giving in. So, I decided to step in."

Belinda: "I've laid out their pajamas, their bedtimes are 8:30."

[Rachael writes some information in her babysitting notebook]

[The parents leave the kids with Rachael]

Lucas: "Ready for dinner?"

Imogen: "Coming, Lucas!"

[Imogen walks out the house with Lucas]

[Imogen goes in Lucas' motorbike]

Rachael: (shouting) "IMOGEN PANIZZA, COME BACK AT ONCE!!!!!"

Imogen: "Get lost, cunt!"

[Rachael pulls Imogen off the motorbike and drags her back into the house]

Imogen: "Let me go, you motherfucking bitch!"

Rachael: "HEY, IMOGEN, I WILL NOT EVER LET YOU GO, EVER AGAIN! AND YOU CAN'T CALL ME A FUCKING BITCH!!!!! YOU'LL GET ARRESTED BY THE POLICE, YOUNG LADY! NOW WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE, GET BACK IN THE HOUSE, AND STAY THERE FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT, YOU GOT IT, IMOGEN?!?!?!?!"

Jo: "Little did the parents suspect, Imogen was making Rachael's life a living Hell."

[Imogen kicks Rachael in the stomach]

Rachael: "OW! YOU DO NOT KICK ANYBODY IN THE STOMACH, IMOGEN!! THAT WAS VERY BAD!!!"

[Imogen pushes Rachael down the stairs]

Rachael: "RIGHT, I'M GOING TO TELL THE POLICE THAT YOU RAN AWAY FROM ME, MISSY AND YOU JUST TOOK OFF WITH AN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT FROM MEXICO!!!!"

[Imogen hops back on Lucas' motorbike and the two ride off into the sunset]

[Rachael calls the police]

Police Dispatcher: "Hello, may I do something for you?"

Rachael: "My client's daughter ran away! She just took off with an illegal immigrant from Mexico!"

Police Dispatcher: "Thank you. The police will take operations."

Jo: "According to the police, Lucas was using a deceased person's social security number and bank account to order dinner for two at Red Robin's; he even used the credit card he had stolen from his father to buy movie tickets to see a foreign film after dinner. He also stole some money from his father to purchase guns."

[The police arrest Lucas for theft and return Imogen home]

Reinforcements
Jo: "I would like you to give them a warning."

Belinda: "Okay!"

Jo: "I want you to say 'No, you do not do that!' to Imogen."

Jo: "Secondly, if they do it again, take them go to the calm down zone!"

[Imogen punches Belinda in the face]

Belinda: "NO, YOU DO NOT DO THAT!!!"

Jo: "Belinda, don't shout. Just say in a very low-toned voice."

Belinda: [lower voice] "No, you do not do that."

[Imogen punches Belinda again]

Belinda: [shouts] "RIGHT!!!!! YOU'RE GOING STRAIGHT INTO THE CALM DOWN ZONE!!! AND STAY THERE FOR 84 MINUTES!!!!! DEAL?!"

Jo: "84 minutes?! Belinda, that's totally ludicrous! Just tell her she's staying there for 12 minutes."

Belinda: "STAY THERE FOR 12 MINUTES, RIGHT?!?"

Jo: "Why do you keep shouting?"

Belinda: "Because I didn't like her naughty attitude."

[12 minutes later]

Belinda: "I would like an apology."

Imogen: "NO!!!!"

Belinda [shouts]: "YOU KNOW WHAT?!? YOU WILL STAY THERE UNTIL IT IS TIME TO GO TO BED!!! I WILL NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN FOR THE REST OF THE DAY!!!!"

Jo [raises her voice]: "BELINDA, WHAT I SAID WAS LUDICROUS WITH IMOGEN! YOU WEREN'T DOING THE TIME-OUT PROPERLY, AND NOT TELLING HER TO STAY THERE FOR 12 MINUTES IN A LOW TONE VOICE! AND STOP BANISHING HER IN THE CALM DOWN ZONE!"

Belinda: "But, Jo, she refused to apologize to me for punching me twice in the face!"

Imogen's surprise
Imogen: "I am very sorry to Dad, Jana and Leon. And Mom?"

Belinda: "Yes?"

Imogen: "Mom, I'm sorry; I'm sorry I didn't listen to you. You were right about Lucas. I realized that the deceased person Lucas was using the social security number and bank account of was my grandfather. That was when I found out that he was not the guy for me and not my type; he was stealing from the family."

Belinda: "Thank you so much, Imogen. Apology accepted."

[Belinda and Imogen smile]

Cut to:

[Flashback: to Imogen and Lucas having dinner at Red Robin]

[Imogen gets a glance at the social security number card of a deceased person's name--- Herbert J. Panizza, and the bank account debit card with the name of the same deceased person's name]

Imogen: (confused) "'Herbert J. Panizza?'"

[Imogen quickly realizes that is the name of her late grandfather]

Imogen: (angry) "Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

Lucas: "What do you mean, wait a minute?"

Imogen: "The social security number and bank account that you have belong to my late grandfather!"

Lucas: "So?"

Imogen: "My mom was right about you, Lucas--"

[Flashback ends]

Belinda: "Imogen, you are now ungrounded."

Imogen: "Aw yes!"

Belinda: "Now you could go to Justice and Old Navy!"

Imogen: "OMG!"

Jo says Goodbye
Jo: "You be a good girl from now on, OK?"

Imogen: "Bye, Jo."
