[00:02.500]Ok. Put on your listening ears for five minutes
[00:05.500]Got them on? Good. Now just listen
[00:09.500]Long ago, there lived a man
[00:11.500]His name was Carlo, and he ran
[00:13.500]An ancient theater where his daughter was the star
[00:16.500]With me?
[00:17.500]Karla's the star, yeah
[00:18.500]No! His daughter's name is
[00:19.500]Esmerelda, and she's famous
[00:21.500]People come to hear her sing from near and far
[00:23.500]Got it
[00:24.500]Good
[00:25.500]Now, there's a rumor going round
[00:27.500]That in the tunnels underground
[00:28.500]There lives
[00:29.500]Wait, I know, can I guess?
[00:30.500]Sure, if you can
[00:31.500]A mysterious phantom! Me! Right?
[00:33.500]Right, well, mostly
[00:34.500]But the twist is that this ghostly
[00:36.500]Evil presence isn't monster, but man
[00:40.500]Now, this man had been blessed
[00:42.500]With a gift he possessed
[00:44.500]Musical talents completely unmatched
[00:47.500]But, as you often will find
[00:49.500]In epic tales of this kind
[00:51.500]This gift came with a curse attached
[00:54.500]A face that was hideous
[00:57.500]And so jarring
[00:59.500]He wore a mask to cover all the scarring
[01:03.500]Cool!
[01:04.500]And lived underground inside a hole
[01:08.500]Wait, a hole? Why a hole?
[01:10.500]All his life, he'd been tormented, teased, and taunted
[01:14.500]But now his hunters would become the haunted
[01:18.500]The world that always made him feel unwanted would hear the toll
[01:23.500]The sounds of a tortured soul
[01:27.500]Ok, so I was born with a lightning scar, got it
[01:29.500]No, no. Your typical, everyday scar
[01:31.500]Ohh, Scar like Lion King
[01:33.500]You know, you are actually the worst
[01:35.500]Listen up, you're gonna need to know this
[01:37.500]One day at his piano
[01:39.500]Distant sounds of a soprano
[01:40.500]Drifted towards him from the theater above
[01:43.500]K, so this hole has a piano?
[01:45.500]Sweeter than a bird
[01:46.500]In all his life he'd never heard
[01:48.500]A sound like this, and he was instantly in love
[01:51.500]The voice, of course, was Carlo's daughter
[01:53.500]And the Phantom went and sought her
[01:56.500]To become his secret student, and his muse
[01:59.500]And if you think she found this oh-so-
[02:01.500]Enigmatic virtuo also
[02:03.500]Kinda creepy, then I've got some shocking news
[02:07.500]Because she fell, and fell hard
[02:10.500]He was battered and scarred
[02:11.500]But she could see that inside, there was more
[02:14.500]Something alluring, she'd find
[02:16.500]In the sadness behind
[02:19.500]That terrifying mask he wore
[02:21.500]Wait a minute, I'm your boyfriend? Are we gonna have to kiss?
[02:23.500]That's gross, you're like my sister
[02:25.500]Zeke, it's called acting
[02:27.500]And though he was hideous
[02:29.500]And she was perfection
[02:32.500]Through music, they found their connection
[02:36.500]A bond beyond their own control
[02:41.500]You better not get sick, I am NOT kissing Tina!
[02:44.500]And though his face tormented her and chilled her
[02:47.500]His compositions haunted her and thrilled her
[02:51.500]His mesmerizing melodies fulfilled her, made her whole
[02:57.500]The sounds of a tortured soul
[03:00.500]She was beautiful, and he was hideous
[03:02.500]Ok so this IS Beauty and the Beast?
[03:03.500]Zeke, less talking. More listening
[03:05.500]'Cause here's where it gets interesting
[03:08.500]Ezzy has another man, some
[03:10.500]Guy named Raoul who's tall and handsome
[03:12.500]And not all that pleased about her latest beau
[03:15.500]Ah, always a triangle
[03:16.500]Angrily, Raoul tracks him
[03:18.500]To his lair, where he attacks him
[03:20.500]And they battle in the passageway below
[03:22.500]Awesome!
[03:23.500]And when he took his last breath
[03:25.500]The Phantom welcomed his death
[03:27.500]He'd rather die than live apart
[03:31.500]When it was over and done
[03:33.500]Raoul had killed him—he'd won
[03:35.500]But he'd lost Esmerelda's heart
[03:38.500]'Cause though he was pretty, yes
[03:40.500]And a keeper
[03:42.500]The Phantom's love was so much deeper
[03:47.500]A loss that nothing could console
[03:54.500]No more, she'd see that face that once had chilled her
[03:57.500]No more, she'd hear that music that fulfilled her
[04:01.500]And people say that that's the thing that killed her, on the whole
[04:07.500]She ran away and was never seen again. But get this
[04:12.500]When they returned to find the Phantom and unmask it
[04:16.500]They never found a body for the casket
[04:20.500]They say he had, depending who you ask it, one last goal
[04:26.500](One last goal)
[04:27.500]To this day, inside that theater, or near it
[04:32.500]If you listen very closely, you can hear it
[04:36.500]The songs of a tortured spirit's final role
[04:43.500]The sounds of a tortured soul
[04:48.500]That's the basic plot, anyway
[04:50.500]So it's about a person who died at a theater
[04:52.500]And then haunts it forever?
[04:54.500]Yes
[04:55.500]Brooke! That's just like the story Ms. Walker told!
[04:57.500]This play is just like the story of our school
[04:59.500]That is so... meta. Man
