{Cut to the Hallways of Monstropolis University}

ARUSEUS: Wow...so nice to be back.

TOM: So...what was it like?

ARUSEUS: Huh?

TOM: While...you were dead.

ARUSEUS: Well, I found myself in a waiting room, like one at a doctor's office. Several other people sat there, and I waited. My name was called into something like the dean's office, and there was-

LUCAS: Glad to have you back, Aruseus!

{The two high five}

TOM: So...you were saying...

ARUSEUS: I...wow. I forgot.

TOM: Urgh...

{The two walk up to Austin and Eva, who are talking}

AUSTIN: ...and I really think we should.

EVA: Well, I'd love to.

AUSTIN: Oh...hey guys.

TOM: Hey, Austin! You don't seem all angry. Something up? Did you get wasted and or stoned at Jeremy's dorm party last night? Man I knew he was a druggie...

AUSTIN: No. No. No. Listen...I know I'm never shy like this...but...

ARUSEUS: Yeeeees?

AUSTIN: Eva and I...we're thinking about going out.

TOM: {thrilled} Austin my man, you have done it! I saw this coming! You two are like the perfect match for each other!

EVA: ...really?

TOM: Sure! He beats people up for fun, and you are all tough and stuff! Both of you are like bread and butter, bacon and eggs, Brad and Janet...

ARUSEUS: Woah, buddy! Enough!

AUSTIN: Thanks guys...I've never felt this happy before.

TOM: Austin...happy? Man that's weird.

{Aruseus chuckles}

TOM: Shouldn't you be checking email now?

ARUSEUS: Yeah...I'll take it from here, you stay with Austin.

TOM: Fine by me.

{Cut to another hallway, Aruseus is walking to his dorm}

CODY: Hey, Aruseus!

ARUSEUS: Cody! What's up?

CODY: Nothing. So what are you doing now?

ARUSEUS: I'm going to get my SkyPod so I can check email.

JAY: Aruseus, my man!

ARUSEUS: Jay! Nice to see you!

JAY: You wanna go with me and Cyrus for shakes later?

ARUSEUS: Sure! I've just got to give the viewers what they want.

{Cut to Aruseus' dorm. Aruseus picks up the Skypod to check an email.}

subject: Switch

Dear Aruseus-san, What would you do if you suddenly turned into a girl? And how would you spend your day if you and one of your friends somehow switched bodies? From, CGC

ARUSEUS: {typing} Well, Counting Green Cars, if I were a girl, I'd be the dumb blondish type probably...

{Some random blonde male is seen outside the doorway}

STUDENT: Hey!

ARUSEUS: Sorry, Jeremy! Anyways...yeah. Goofy girl, rather than goofy guy. Nothing else to really say. About the whole body switch...

{Cut to Aruseus in his dorm, typing schoolwork on a laptop. All of a sudden, Tom runs in, in his boxers, holding a beer}

TOM: {drunk, Aruseus' voice} Hey, To...I mean...Aruseus! You're missing out on the greatest party!

ARUSEUS: {Tom's voice} Urgh...I'm trying to do some work. Now put some clothes on...

{Cut back}

ARUSEUS: And I'd just pretty much ruin Tom's present day life right then and there. Well, I'm still getting used to being back, so how bout them shakes?

{Jay and Cody smile and nod. The three walk off and The Paper comes down.}
