Read the full performed opening

Hello and welcome to a special edition of Reverse Psychology. Tonight we continue our summer movie marathon. Frazier is in Belize for the summer, and we are not in school for the summer. If you thought this would take place in a school, then you were the fool. There's not even a musical. This is Reverse Psychology Presents High School Musical. I am Ryan Sansone, conducting you through all the misconduct this summer holds, and helping someone learn a thing or two along the way. Joining me, as always from the upside down, the man who would never picnic anywhere there is sports ball, it's Curtis Sheck. Wow, you are really getting into the musical nature of these movies. So much rhyming. School and Fool just felt right, and that's the only rhyming I did, I think. Did I rhyme elsewhere? It felt like a lot. Oh, one rhyme. I have always said, if I can call you a fool, I will do so in rhyme. That's been a long-standing thing. And helping me keep the fool and the Sheck in check, it's my co-host, a woman who would absolutely tolerate Zac Efron being late for at least two hours and still go on a date. It's Danielle Stevens. Hello, and yes, I absolutely would tolerate it for him.
