Kid Phantomby JBO ’10

Episode synopses from Kid Phantom, the CW’s new show about the life of a teenaged Phantom of the Opera.

THE DETENTION
Phantom gets Saturday detention with five of his classmates.

“A brain, a beauty, a jock, a criminal, and a basketcase – to the rest of the world, we seemed so different…” muses Rick, the jock. “Who would’ve guessed that we all hate freaks?”
“I see him looking at me!” shouts Jaime, the beautiful girl.
“I thought I told you to stay inside your hole,” Patrick tells Phantom, approaching ominously.

THE BLIND DATE
Phantom worries that his blind date will be frightened by his face – but gets a lucky break.

“Hello, I’m Gina,” the date says as she enters the restaurant, turning to reveal her face to the audience. She has Down syndrome.

Thank you, God, thinks Phantom.

THE MASQUERADE
Phantom is excited to go to Paris High’s annual masquerade ball.

I can’t believe it, thinks Phantom, happy for the first time in ages, I’m dancing with Stacy, the girl of my dreams.

“Look, everybody!” someone shouts. “That kid has only half a mask – he must be poor!”

THE LOST OINTMENT
Phantom loses his ointment jar. He gets terrible mask sores.

“Oh no, where did I put my jar?” Phantom asks.
