Misfit: The Series (Misfit: De serie)

A NETFLIX SERIES

There are two kinds of people.

You have the early birds.

And you have all those people that totally aren't.

But as long as I follow my normal routine, we'll be set in no time.

First thing, I choose my outfit.

The hardest part? Finding two matching socks.

As soon as you're awake, do something you can barely tolerate.

You know what that means? Math homework.

You get that out the way,

your brain will be super focused for five minutes of pure creativity.

And go.

Then, after a quick relaxation exercise,

I start my day with my favorite breakfast.

Fried egg, sunny-side up with

bird seed?

-Have a good sleep? Selamat pagi , Julia. -What's that?

Good morning, Julia.

Jason. This year, he's both my class- and housemate.

My parents are friends with his parents. He usually lives in Singapore.

But this year, he's going to Highland as an exchange student.

He's lived with us for two weeks

and I think he's never made a mistake in his life.

Do perfect people actually exist?

What does that even mean? Perfect?

Perfect.

As in, exemplary.

Clean.

And flawless.

Okay. Introduce yourself.

Je m'appelle Julia et j'habite aux Pays-Bas.

Très bien.

Je viens de Singapour. Un très beau pays.

Jason definitely fits the definition.

The perfect person.

-Creepy. - Blah, blah, blah. Enough talking.

It's time for school. Hurry up, Julia.

I'm going! But where is my...

-Musical script? -Thank you.

-Take this one. -Hey, is that...?

I just typed, printed, and bound it. No biggie.

Wow.

I know how hard you worked on your musical.

-Thank you. -No problem.

This year, our principal Tony wants more creativity at school.

Anybody can submit an idea.

IDEAS BOX

So, over the summer, I wrote the official Highland Highschool musical.

And I'm really proud of it.

Imagine me.

In the footsteps of the musical star, Lyana Shariff.

She is so good.

Okay, Julia. Let's do this.

Always dare to dream. Let's go.

Juul.

-Hey. -I think I need to travel every summer.

-No. I'll miss you too much. -Me too. It was so cool, though.

Surviving the Ardennes without a smartphone,

without all this stuff... Is that a musical?

Yeah. It's about us, about our friends, about all the squads,

it's called Highland Squadland.

-Great. -What did you come up with?

I didn't have much time to write new songs but I got one started.

-Oh, let's see. -Anyone up for drinks?

-Hey. -Hey.

Wow, new looks?

This school year, our Highland High will get a smoothie shop.

And how will the smoothies stay cold at school?

You know, that's for later.

First, the principal needs to sign off on our brilliant plan. Right, Tara?

- -

Who is that?

Guys, am I dreaming?

He's coming towards me.

I think I'm the reason he's coming over.

Wait, how do I look?

-Like a candy cane. -

-Hey, Julia. -Hey.

Guys, this is Jason.

Jason, these are my friends.

-Hi, my name's... -Nick.

The very best lyricist and guitarist at Highland.

I'm in love with your songs. The lyrics are innovative but also recognizable.

Nice to finally meet you, Jason.

Wow.

You just look delicious.

-It's like I said, a candy cane. -

Yeah. We were making

-swoopies. -Swoopies?

Swoofies, smoothies...

-Tara and I sell smoothies. - Yeah.

-At least, that's the plan. -You're really Tara?

The talented piano player?

You're the one who has the smoothie shop.

Let me guess. They're the best smoothies you've ever had before.

You first introduced me to my favorite, the Blazing Hot Bubble Blaster.

Well, that's my creation.

An unprecedented taste explosion with fresh fruit and...

Frozen yogurt.

Okay, guys. Let's show our ideas to everyone.

- -

Hi.

Girls, you ready for my creative idea for this year?

Yes.

I can't wait to present you all with my idea.

This school year, the one and only Sterre Hagendoorn

brings you the extraordinary true story of a girl with unheard of talents.

So, hold on to your Prada bag, get comfy in your Gucci robe,

kick back and enjoy High School Princess.

Starring Sterre Hagendoorn.

Oh.

Oh, Sterre, you're so glamorous.

With this idea, I say you're sure to win.

It's my greatest role.

IDEAS BOX

Okay. Let's do this.

Um, your title is Highland Squadland? That is so 2020.

High School Princess? That sounds original.

-Yes, it is. -Hey, get fact-checked.

Juul, you don't expect the principal to read through all that?

-He'll be convinced on page one. -Is that right?

He's always been a fan of glamour,

and who can bring that better than us?

Hey, where is the principal anyway? Where is he?

Highland!

Highland.

Good morning, everyone.

I want to introduce myself. I am Agnes Wilgenburg.

Hey, she wrote that...

Everyone Can Succeed, "The handbook that makes every school successful".

-I heard she turns schools into bootcamps. -What?

Hello, you are?

-Miss Wilgenburg. -Oh, right.

You're in the wrong school

because we're all waiting for our real principal.

Naturally. Allow me to break the suspense.

I actually have some super good news for you all.

Highland High has been selected for a special program.

Using my proven method,

I can help you all achieve the highest possible level that one can.

In the end, you'll be eligible to join the international student fellowship,

-Masters of Everything. -

Where the very brightest students receive a world-class education.

With 12-hour school days and inspiring weekend classes,

everyone can become the best of the best.

You can read about my success in this book.

-It's mandatory. -Yay.

Highland High is known for creativity.

Yes.

And each of you belongs to some sort of squad.

Squads.

- -Okay, yeah.

Yes, that's enough.

I get the idea, now.

Stop.
