Susan: Yes. Yes, I knew.
Rodrick:
[to Greg] You told Mom?!
Frank: I knew they had a party!
Greg: It slipped out, but I took it back!
Susan: My instincts told me you weren't being honest! I should've trusted my instincts!
Frank: Wait! You knew about this, but you didn't tell me about it?
Greg: I still protected you! I threw Mom off your scent!
Rodrick: Great job. She has no idea!
Frank: We are supposed to be a team against them!
Susan: They were getting along so well I let it blind me to the truth!
Rodrick: Why were you taking pictures?!
Greg: It was so crazy that morning, I forgot we took the pictures.
Susan: So I let it slide. And I am so sorry. Oh, God. It feels so good to get that out.

[Frank and Susan wait in front of the stairs sternly as Greg and Rodrick come down]
Susan: Your father I have talked, and we have decided on your punishment.
Frank: Greg, you are grounded for two weeks. Also, no video games for two weeks.
Susan: Rodrick, you may only drive to and from school for the next month. As the ringleader, you're also grounded for a month.
Rodrick: Mom, I'm sorry, and I won't do it again.
Susan: I know you won't. And to make sure, we're also not allowing you to perform in the talent show.
Rodrick:
[shocked] What? No. No, you can't do that! Ground me for a year, I don't care, but you have to let me play in that show. This could be my big break.
Susan: I'm sorry.
Rodrick:
[upset] Dad, come on, this isn't fair. I just got Bill in the band!
Frank: Actually, Rodrick, that doesn't help your case. Bill's kind of a jerk.
[Rodrick gives a silent "What?"]
Susan: Our decision is final.
[Greg looks silently at Rodrick; upset with his punishment, who goes upstairs, and Greg follows suit]
Rodrick:
[silent] You are so dead.

[At Leisure Village Retirement Community, Frank madly pulls over in front of the entrance, leaving Greg and Rodrick there, where their grandfather comes to see them, mostly Greg.]
Greg:
[narrating] Things have never been worse. Our parents are super mad at us, so we have to spend the weekend at my Grandpa's boring retirement community, Holly Hills thinks I'm Fregley, and my relationship with Rodrick is at an all-time low. So, he's made it his mission to ruin my life.
[As Greg, Rodrick and their grandfather walk towards his retirement hotel room, Rodrick kicks Greg from behind him, still sore about the punishment. Greg angrily turns towards Rodrick.] Quit it!
Rodrick:
[annoyed] Why don't you tell Mom? You're good at that.
Greg:
[narrating] Grandpa doesn't like TV. Instead, he prefers to watch the lobby on the security channel.
Rodrick: I should be rehearsing right now.
Greg: Please, Grandpa. Please, can we watch a real TV show now?
Grandpa: TV is just a bunch of fakers. This is
real life.

[Chasing his assistant, Scotty Douglas, through the hall] Scotty! Come on!
[Scotty locks himself into the bathroom] Scotty, come on! You don't wanna let the magic fans down, do you?
Scotty:
[from inside] Go away!
Susan: Rowley, what's wrong?
Rowley: My assistant, Scotty got stage fright. Now he doesn't want to do the show.
Susan: Maybe Greg would help out. He can be your assistant. What? No way.
Susan: What? Rowley is your best friend. This is important to him. You need to do this.
Rowley: It's okay, Mrs. Heffley. Greg is just afraid that Holly Hills will think less of him.
Greg:
[defensive] Rowley.
[turns to Susan] Mom, can we talk in private?
Susan': Sure.

[desperate] Scotty, please.
