It was early Wednesday morning when one of the girls got a phone call from Bono..

Mona:*picks up cellphone* This is Phona how can I help you?....*drops phone* HOO AH! Bono!....yes....you want our help to make your next video?....eh...yeah I guess...Do I have to clean the loo in it?....eh...ok...bye. *runs downstairs* Girls Girls!

Clarity: What? Whoa girlie watch out for the...!

Mona:*falls over shoe* ACK!!!!

Clarity: Shoe..*sigh* You ok? *helps Mona up*

Mona:*gets up* Oh yeah! Guess what?

Spinny: What?

Mona: Bono wants us to direct their new video!

MG: What new video? They don't even have the new cd out.

Mona: Well they're going to be putting it out *pauses* *giggles* So they want us to help them.

Disco: Oh no...I don't like the sound of this, You girls helping the band direct the video?...This'll be more like a Porn movie or something.

Lemonboy:*laughs* Yeah most probably *serves Disco her coffee*

Mona: Can you imagine??? The stuff we can do with the guys...I mean wow!

Ana: So when are they coming over?

Mona: In about 10 mins, they were on their way here.

All: 10 mins?!?!?!?!

Clarity: ACK I haven't even put on my clothes *looks down at robe and pjs* I'll be right back!

*The girls run upstairs to get ready while the boys arrive at the Mansion*

Larry: Why are we going to PLEBA Mansion? I thought we were going to do our new video today.

Bono: We are! But, the PlEBA girls are going to be directing us, it's McG's new idea to save money.

Larry: WHAT?!?!?!?!! What do you mean the PLEBA Girls will be directing us?!?!?!

Adam: I think that's wonderful, I think it'll get us in touch with our feminine side, and it'll show it in the video.

Larry: Oh please feminine boy, you've already been in touch with that since back during the One video, you haven't even taken your dress off *points at Sarong*.

Adam: First of all, this is not a dress it's a Sarong, and Well, in your words...FOAD!

Edge: Guys Guys! Stop it! Look we should give this a try, it'll be intresting I think.

Bono: Yeah guys, if it doesn't work well we'll just do another one, as simple as that.

Larry:*snarl* Fine! Let's get this over with.

*The guys get off their car and go inside PLEBA Mansion where the girls are waiting for them*

Mona: Hey guys! You ready for your new video to be made today?

All: Yes! (cept Larry who screams no)

Clarity: Please boys sit down, we're going to give you our ideas for the video.

Edge: You need to listen to the song first, to see what vibe you get from it.

MG: Ok, good idea now let's play it *puts CD in CD player and pushes play*

*The girls start bouncing up and down to the music as the boys enjoy their reaction, knowing that if the girls like the song, most of their fans will*

Disco: Hey I like this! It's got a good groove to it.

Ana: Yeah you can definitely dance to it.

Adam: So what is your idea girls for the video?

Mona:*pulls out paper with the ideas written on there and reads* Ok, we've come up with these ideas *clears throat* Ok, You guys should be on one of these hills here in Ireland, you know the really green ones and like play your instruments singing to the camera..

Larry: Wow sounds pretty good to me.

Mona: Then we'll switch you guys out for guys dressed in sheep costumes.

Larry: WHAT?!?!? Oh hell no.

Bono: Shaddup Larry! What else Mona?

Mona: Well then I thought we could have you guys by the beach, topless *grin*

Girls:*giggle*

Adam: I don't mind that at all.

MG: Then we thought that we could have you guys on a playground, swinging and going down the slide and stuff. And well that's the end of your video.

Bono: Well it sounds, em, intresting. I guess we could try it.

Edge: Yeah it'll definitely be an experience.

Larry:*snarl* This is going to be crap!

Adam: Oh please Larry keep a positive outlook, maybe somethings will change...like the sheep idea.

Ana: Well shall we get started?

All: Yeah!

Clarity: Ok great! I know just what hill to go to, i've been there a few times, it's not too far from here. Let's go!

*The guys and girls jump into the Discoboos with all their filming gear as they get to the first location, a beautiful, green mountain. Everybody gets off of the Discoboos and survey the area*

MG: Wow this is a nice place Twin.

Clarity:*smiles* Told ya!

Larry: Yeah i'll have to admit it's quite peaceful, although it's a tad bit windy.

Bono: Yeah, I mean my hair is flying all over the place!

Mona:*mumbles* MMMMMM Bono hair flying

Disco: Well we should get started, ok everybody help get the gear off the discobus and set it up!

*The gang get the cameras and instruments off the Discoboos setting it up on the mountain getting ready for the video*

*AM and Bluey show up to the site to help the girls out with the video*

AM: Man I can't believe they're doing this.

Bluey: Yeah I know. *laughs* Whoever had this idea must be mad.

Ana: Ok! Everybody set up?

All: Yes!

MG: Ok, Cameras, rolling, playback rolling! GO!

*The band play and sing into the camera, Bono is jumping about the hill, going up to the other guys singing to them when...*

Larry: SHITE! MY CYMBAL FLEW AWAY!!!

Clarity: I'll get it!!!! *chases the cymbal down the hill as it flies*

Edge: This is getting too windy!!! My beanie is starting to....*beanie flies off head* MY BEANIE!!! *Edge chases after it*

Mona:*snorts doughnut up nose* OMG THIS IS TOO FUNNY! Are you getting this on video?

MG: Oh yeah definitely...

Bluey: Maybe Larry's shirt will fly off...

MG: Oh gawd I so wish it will...

*The guys are running around chasing after various things that have flown away, when finally Ana screams..*

Ana: CUT! Ok, that's enough here.

Larry: But we didn't actually get to finish it! I was too busy chasing my droomkit over this fookin mountain!

AM: Oh I think we got something here! It's really cool, you guys don't worry about it, we're the directors.

Edge: Well ok..*puts on Beanie which is torn up and shows parts of his head*

Disco: Time to head to the beach!

*The gang pack up the gear and head towards the beach*

Bono: Finally the beach, which beach we going to?

Ana: OH I don't know some beach nearby, i'm sure there's one around here, I mean after all this is an island.

Clarity: Hey why don't we stop here? It looks decent enough.

*The Boos is brought to a stop and the gang get off the boos only bringing the cameras and cdplayer this time*

Bluey: Here there's a nice spot over there by some rocks!

MG: Yeah that'll look cool in the background.

Mona: Ok guys take off your clothes *snicker* and go take your places.

Larry: Do I have to take ALL my clothes off?

Clarity&MG: YES!

Disco: No Larry just put on your bathing suit.

Larry: Ok.

*The guys head off back to the Booos to change into their swimsuits as the girls try to peek inside*
 
*The guys walk out of the boos with their swim suits on as the girls' jaws drop to the floor*

Bono:*smiles* I thought i'd go with the nice speedo.

Mona: Holy Mother of...*thud*

Edge:*wearing swim trunks* How do I look.

Disco: Oh just too adorable.

Larry:*walks out wearing a thong*

Clarity&MG: OH MY GOD! *thud*

Bluey: Damn his arse is white!

AM: I can't wait to see what Adam comes out in!

Adam:*walks out naked* Erm I seem to have forgotten my swimsuit, anybody have an extra one?

Ana: Oh my god it's so...big..

AM: NO swimsuit needed!

Disco: yeah we have extra, here *gives it to Adam*

MG:*wakes up* Ok, let's get started! Guys go to the beach and lay down on your stomachs facing the camera first, and start singing*

Guys: Ok! *Lay down on their stomachs as Bono starts to sing when...*

Larry: YEEEEEOUUUUUUUCH!!!! ACK!

Clarity: What????

Larry: Something bit me arse! I think it was a huge crab or something.

All:*laugh*

Bluey: Actually if i'm not mistaken, I think I saw Adam pinching your arse.

Larry: ADAM!

Adam:*grins* What? What did I do?

Larry: Did you pinch me arse?

Adam: Guilty as charged *laughs*

Mona: Ok ok, erm, guys get in the water I want you to play around in it, look like you're having fun with your friends.

Edge:*swallows hard* In the..water?

Mona: yes in the sea. Do you have a problem with that?

Edge: Well y'see I can't really swim and...

Ana: Oh that's ok, we've got some floaties around in the boos.

Edge: Floaties?

AM: Yeah you know the ones little kids put on their arms.

Edge: Oh. Erm, ok.

Ana:*comes back with the floaties and puts them on Edge's arms* There perfect!

MG: Ok, now guys get in the water and sing!

*The guys get in the water when Edge starts splashing like mad*

Edge: I'm drowningggg!! Help meeeeee!!!!

Larry: I'll help you! *goes to Edge and picks him up, standing up, the water is only to his knees* Edge if you would stand up...you would have been ok!

Edge: Oh. Erm, my bad.

Larry:*drops Edge back in the water* Wanker.

Disco: Ok enough! Let's dry the guys off and pack up. We need to get to the playground before it gets dark.

*The gang pack up and get back on the boos heading for the playground.*
 
LMFAO!!! *wonders where the sheep idea went too! lmfao* Do I get to keep that cymbal if I catch it? lol *falls off chair laughing!*
 
*The gang find a quiet little play ground back in Dublin and get off the boos setting up the gear for the last shot of the day. Some of the girls have headed back to the mansion, tired of the trip, only Clarity, MG, Ana, AM and Bluey stay*

MG: Ok! Now, I want Larry on the swing, Bono on the slide, Adam and Edge on the seesaw.

All: Ok!

*The guys go to their spots and the camera starts rolling*

Bluey:*to AM* I bet you 10 Euros that Bono will slide down and fall on his arse.

AM:*giggles* Oh yeah, and I bet that one of the guys will fall off the seesaw.

Bono:*sings into the camera when all of a sudden he starts to slide down* ACK!!! *Holds on to the bars at the top of the slide holding himself from sliding down*

All: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Bono: FOOK it! *lets go and slides down falling on his arse*

Bluey: I won! *laughs*

Clarity: Man Bono you're such a clutz!

Edge:*is laughing so hard that he falls back from the seesaw letting Adam fly back down from the air and falls back too* WOOPS!

Adam: Ahh me head!

AM: I told you! *goes over to Adam* You ok?

ADam:*grins* Yes

Ana: Man this is great stuff.

Larry: Well I seem to be the only one that hasn't...*the chain of the swing breaks and he falls on his arse*

MG: Awwwwwww poor Larry! Let me rub your arse!

Larry:*Gets up* FOAD!

Clarity: Ok ok! I think this is all for today.

Edge: This was fun today but the video isn't going to look good.

Bluey: Well we've still got to edit it and stuff...it'll rock.

Larry:*snarl* This wasn't a video it was more like bloopers!

Ana: Yeah it was cool!

MG: Yeah I think it's got kinda like a Blink182esque thing to it.

*The gang pack up and head back to the Mansion. The girls get busy editing the video and present it to the guys*

Bluey:*puts the video in the VCR* Alright here it is! Get ready guys this is going to be your next hit!

*The video plays showing the band chasing around their stuff on the mountain, adam pinching larry's arse and Larry saving Edge in the water, the gang falling off their stuff at the playground with everything else inbetween. The video stops and everybody is rolling on the floor laughing*

Larry: Man! That's some funny shite! I have to admit, this is genious!

Bono: yeah! This is definitely going to be a hit.

McG: Girls you did a wonderful job. I want to thank you for helping the boys out.

AM: No problem!

MG: We sure did have lots of fun making it!

*The gang hang out talking about the day they had in making the new U2 video*

The End.
