"Mama deserves a blue ribbon!" Mary Grace calls out, overconfident as always, and punches the air a few times. Yeah, she'll give 'em what for. Whoever they are.
"I don't think we're supposed to meddle with time, Pres, but I do think we're supposed to—" She reaches into her clutch and retrieves a vape pen, "—blend in. Holy shit, I think we match."

"Is that what you're thinking about right now?" Presley half-yells, letting go of Ducky to snatch the matching vape right out of Mr. Hobgood's hand. He shakes it in Mary Grace's face. "O'Malley, the current situation is cataclysmic. The school is destroyed, half of us are just—gone—and Pocket left us with absolutely maundering instructions to do who knows the fuck what! Can EVERYONE just FOCUS."
Presley takes the vape—or, really, he takes a copy of the vape, which glows gold as he shakes it in Mary Grace's face. And suddenly, everything's moving again, everything going topsy turvy as Ducky and Hermes collide, both of them somersaulting into the dirt.
“DUCKY! And—Hermes! Sorry, shit, did she hurt you?” Richard Pompel shouts, jogging toward the two of them. He offers a hand to help Hermes up, but Ducky is already trying to scramble away again, just fucking stoked on the idea of digging up some mandrakes right now.
“Just my pride,” Hermes grunts and takes Pompel’s hand. “And also my coat. Is there a tailor in town?”
“Maybe not a tailor, but I bet you could trade a Morgenstern for a—DUCKY, not the mandrakes again!” Aaaand he’s off again, scrambling after his rambunctious baby before she can piss off his business partner better than he ever could. As Hermes brushes the mud off his sleeves, a huge metal tub of water just behind him glows blue at the edges. Just below the water, Peckenpaugh awaits, so take a dip.

He just stares at Mary Grace, then at Felicity, and then at the changed scene.
"Fuck everything," Presley declares, and takes a long pull from their teacher's vape. Or a ghost double of their teacher's vape? Honestly, who cares anymore. He's done. Presley coughs a few times, and shakes his head as he regards the glowing tub of water again. "Of course I'd be wearing my best suit for this."

"My MAN!" Mary Grace cheers and claps Presley on the back as he coughs. She hands her vape to Felicity. "Now this party can get started, Prom Bond... James Prom... Bond... Promsley Bondragon."
Yeah that's the one.
She peers into the tub. Kinda seems like the logical next step. "Royalty first?"

Felicity takes a big drag from Mary Grace’s vape and holds it in until she’s come up with a Bond pun of her own. “Let’s go Miss Moneypresley,” she exhales, delighted by this turn of events. She hops into the tub and beckons the others to follow. “Bad Girls Club is needed back at school.”

Doesn't Presley know that if you act all serious, things might just... get serious?

Alright, so he's now full-on yelling.

MEMORY: Just Ducky - COMPLETE & TOKENS
Upon emerging from the memory out into the auditorium, the portal snapped shut behind them.
Elsewhere in the auditorium, Hermes Hobgood and the mist, a magimagicicada were freed.
