All of the children/teens scrambled around the carpet, the ones who were there on previous seasons sat next to each other, and the new ones just sat where ever. Justin made sure he sat next to Britney. "Ok, now, I am Fred Newman, I am a co-host here on the show. Let me explain how this game works. I will roll the ball to one of you, and you will say you're name and whatever else you want to about yourself. You will then roll the ball to another person, and they will say their name and so on." Fred rolled the ball to a boy sitting across from him.
"Hi, my name is Josh Ackerman, and I have been on MMC since the 1st season." said Josh. He rolled the ball to a girl with blond hair.
"Hi, I'm Christina Aguilera, I am 13 and this is my 1st season here." said Christina, and rolled the ball to another girl.
"Hello, my name is Lindsey Alley and I am 16, I have been on MMC, like Josh, since the 1st season." said Lindsey, who rolled the ball to a girl.
"Sup, my name is Rhona Bennett, I'm 17, and I've been here since season 4." she rolled the ball to Nita Booth, who was on MMC since season 4. Nita rolled the ball to a boy, who Britney thought was mildly attractive.
"Heello! I am Josh Chasez, people call me JC, I am 15 and I've been here since season 4." said JC, he rolled it to a girl.
"Hey, I'm Ashlee Nicole DeLoach, people call me Nikki, I am 14 and this is my 1st season here." said Nikki. She rolled the ball to T.J. Fantini, who rolled it to Dale Godboldo, who rolled it to a boy across from him.
"Hello, I'm Ryan Gosling, I am 13, and this is my 1st season here." Ryan rolled the ball to another boy.
"Hey, I'm Anthony Lucca, people call me Tony, I'm 17 and I've been here since season 4." Tony rolled it to Ricky Luna, who rolled it to Tate Lynche, who rolled it to Jennifer McGill, who rolled it to Ilana Miller, who rolled it to a boy beside her.
"I'm Matt Morris, 14, and I've been here since season 4." Matt rolled it to a girl.
"Keri Russell, 17, here since season 4." she rolled it to a boy.
"The names Marc Worden, age's 17, here since season 3." Marc rolled it to Justin.
"Hi! I'm Justin Timberlake, I am 12 and this is my 1st season here!" Justin said energetically. Justin rolled it to the only one left.
"Hi, I'm Britney Spears, I'm 11 and this is also my 1st season here." she said in her Southern drawl.
"Good, now that we know each other's names, it's time I introduce you to my co-host, Terri Misner." said Fred, pointing to a woman standing at the door. "Hi everybody! I'm Terri (as Fred said), and I hope we're going to have a fantastic season here at MMC!" Terri said in a fake happy voice. "Oh, and Fred, it's time to start filming." she added to Fred. "Ok then kids, come with me." Fred told the teens. They had a long week filming after that day, and normally they kids would stay there until about 8:00pm, but to get the kids used to filming, they only kept them there until 12:00. This meant they didn't get a break time at 6:00 like they normally would, and this kept Britney and Justin away from each other for the first week.
