CORNY
Yeah! And that was our dance of the week   Peyton Place After Midnight, introduced to you by our brand new Council Member, Miss Tracy Turnblad. Cozy up to old Corny and tell us about yourself, Trrrrace.

TRACY
Well, I go to Patterson Park High, I watch your show, and I do absolutely nothing else.

(The COUNCIL MEMBERS applaud and cheer.)

But someday I hope to be the first woman president of the world or a Rockette. You got to think big to be big!

CORNY
And if you were president, what would your first official act be?

TRACY
Well, I d make every day Negro Day!

VELMA
Aaaaiiiieeeee!!!!!

CORNY
I read you like tomorrow s headlines, Trace! Looks like we might just have a hot new candidate for Miss Teenage Hairspray.

AMBER
(trying to grab the mic)
No, she can t be Miss Hairspray!

CORNY
So, Tracy, tell us true, how would you like Link Larkin to sing a song just for you?

AMBER
(trying to grab the mic)
No!

TRACY
Would I? Would I?

AMBER
(trying again to grab the mic)
You people are ignoring the laws of nature!

CORNY
Link Larkin, our own budding Elvis, will now sing,  It Takes Two.
