INT. PROTAG ROYAL BEDROOM - NIGHT

@cut to zone 3

    NARRATOR
Katherine walks out of the closet dressed in her new outfit.

    SEATTLE (talk_exclaim_yes_happy)
Oh my god YES!

    CONNER (talk_excited_happy)
Girl you look amazing. I didn't say look better than me in my own clothes.

    KATHERINE (talk_neutral)
Thanks you all.

NARRATOR
They all walk back downstairs.

INT. CONNERPARTY - NIGHT

NARRATOR
Several people stare at Katherine as she grabs a drink.

@GRAYSON is react_startled_subtle

@DEANNA is admire_happy

EXT. CONNERYARD - NIGHT

@pan to zone 3

NARRATOR
Katherine, Seattle, and Conner all sit down on a couple lounge chairs next to the pool.

CONNER (talk_neutral)
So no pressure but someone keeps looking over here at you.

KATHERINE (talk_apathetic)
It’s probaby because some bimbo over there has my name in her mouth.

SEATTLE (talk_neutral)
Yeah I don’t think so. He’s not paying her any attention.

CONNER (talk_doubtful)
Why would he? They’re not even together. She’s a stalker you’d see in a movie.

KATHERINE (talk_neutral)
How about we just drop this because I’m not even interested in him anyways.

@KATHERINE is sip_cup_neutral_loop

NARRATOR
Gunner then appears behind Katherine.

GUNNER (talk_armscrossed_angry_loop)
Katherine, a word?

KATHERINE (talk_shrug_concerned)
Uh yeah okay. Be right back guys.

NARRATOR
They walk away from the party until they’re alone. Katherine catches Coralee and some of her friends whispering and laughing.

@pan to zone 1

KATHERINE (talk_shrug_concerned)
What’s going on, you okay?

GUNNER (talk_armscrossed_angry_loop)
No I’m not. I’m not okay seeing my sister dressed so provocative.

KATHERINE (talk_startled_neutral)
Are you serious? That’s what this is about?!

if (PARTYOUTFIT is “Pretty in Pink”) {
GUNNER (talk_argue_angry)
The Montgomery’s do not dress like this!
Your skirt is way too short and practically see through!

KATHERINE (talk_argue_defensive)
This is no where near innapropriate or see through!
And if you have a problem with what I wear, take it up with mom. She’s the one who moved us here
We are not going to fit in here with ruffles and loafers!

GUNNER (talk_angry)
Who cares what people think here??

KATHERINE (talk_argue_defensive)
I do Gunner!

} elif (PARTYOUTFIT is “Devil wears Prada”) {
GUNNER (talk_argue_angry)
You look like a cheap stripper! Your bra is handing out! If mom saw this she’d have a fit.

@KATHERINE is react_gasp_dismayed

KATHERINE (talk_argue_defensive)
First of all, you will never call me a stripper ever again.
Second, mom made us move here. My closet isn’t going to cut it here!
Third, mind you own business. I actually like this outfit. And it’s not a bra.

KATHERINE (talk_armscrossed_condescending_loop)
It’s called a bandeau.

GUNNER (talk_angry)
I’m glad you think this is a joke.

KATHERINE (talk_angry)
I’m glad you think you can play dad.

} else (PARTYOUTFIT is “Retro in Neon”) {
GUNNER (talk_argue_angry)
You have more holes in your jeans than a bee hive and you might as well not even wear a shirt.

KATHERINE (talk_argue_defensive)
This is the style Gunner! And I personally think it looks fun!

GUNNER (talk_angry)
And what if mom found out!

KATHERINE (talk_armscrossed_angry_loop)
She would actually have to be around for that to happen.

}

NARRATOR
By now, everyone could hear them yelling.

Here’s my script. Please tell me what I’m doing wrong. Remembering determines her brothers reaction to what she’s wearing…

it is suppouse to look like this

if (PARTYOUTFIT is “Pretty in Pink”) {

}

“else” needs to be by itself

I think your error is in the else
It’s suppouse to be like this:

if (PARTYOUTFIT is “Pretty in Pink”) {

} elif (PARTYOUTFIT is Devil wears Prada”) {

} else {

}

Else must be empty.

If delete the else stuff, do I add another elif to get the reaction for the third choice? Or do I write under else like all the others and it automatically picks the retro in neon option?

The “else” is the third option.

I can’t believe you would pull this tonight. Leave me alone.

I changed it and it’s still giving me errors…
WARNING
Character PARTYOUTFIT is “Devil does not currently exist.
outfit Prada” does not currently exist.

I tried not capatalizing PARTYOUTFIT as well and it didn’t do anything.

@lanafrazer_episode can you help by chance? :slight_smile:

What is wrong with it?

Does is play through any of the choices or none at all?

WARNING

Character PARTYOUTFIT is “Devil does not currently exist.

outfit Prada” does not currently exist.

These are the warnings I’m getting after saving it

Which line does it take you to when you click on the error?

} elif (partyoutfit is “Devil wears Prada”) {

Not sure exactly why but Devil is a trigger word, similar to gamestart. I would suggest swapping the elif and else.

Sure was! I changed it to pink, red and black, and neon and they worked just fine!
