Description

Next Year's Musical Next Year's Musical: After the events of the previous year's musical where he is depicted as "stingy", Principal Secretary allows Helen full creative control over this year's, complete with a large budget - as long as his portrayal is much more favorable than the previous musical. She immediately gets to work, but the only things she has written in the script is that Principal Secretary is "not stingy." The kids (and Mr. RiPeppa) tell Helen their ideas, only for her to eject them (literally in Kiff and Barry's case) from her room. With them gone, Helen, intending on dropping the niceties, breaks into song, only to be interrupted by Principal Secretary, who wishes her luck. Facing herself, she imagines a scenario where she is booed for not being the actor-director she dreams she is. Buckling under stress, she finally breaks down... later, during rehearsals, she admits she has nothing but "PS NOT STINGY". The kids confess they have not only recreated her room on stage, but they helped with the entire production.
