# The Script Room

> Production-ready Professor High scripts for TikTok. Every episode written beat-by-beat with hook variants, on-screen text, voiceover, and Cantina shot prompts.

## What This Section Is

The [Show Bible](/social/overview) answers **what** to make. The Script Room answers **what to say, second by second**.

Every page in this section is a **script pack**: ready-to-shoot episodes written to a show's documented format, each with competing hooks, full voiceover, on-screen text, and a **copy-paste [Cantina](/social/scripts/production-spec#the-cantina-prompt-block) prompt** that generates the video.

These are not outlines. A script pack is meant to be handed to production and shot without a second drafting pass.

<Warning>
  **Read [Compliance](/social/compliance) and the [Video Teardowns](/social/teardowns) before writing anything new.**

  Compliance is account-critical: TikTok's current guidelines contain an explicit *"Fiction or art"* allowance, but **unlabeled AI video runs a four-step path to a permanent ban** and **no script may enable real-world access** to product. Both are enforced in the [production checklist](/social/scripts/production-spec#continuity-checklist).

  The teardowns define the [two grammars](/social/scripts/production-spec#the-two-grammars) — comedy and education are different visual languages, and mixing them is what the first draft got wrong.
</Warning>

<Note>
  Scripts are written to be **tested, not treasured**. Every script carries a tracking ID and a stated test variable. The [Testing Framework](/social/scripts/testing-framework) explains how a script earns a second season or gets cut.

## Anatomy Of A Script

Every episode in every pack uses the same block structure.

| Block              | What It Contains                                                                                                                                                                                   |
| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Header**         | Script ID, runtime, show, pillar, test variable, and the data the script needs before it can be shot.                                                                                              |
| **Hooks (A/B/C)**  | Three competing opening lines, each tagged with a [hook ID](/social/scripts/hook-library). Shoot the A hook first; B and C exist so a flop can be re-cut instead of re-written.                    |
| **Beat table**     | `TIME` / `VOICEOVER` / `ON-SCREEN TEXT` / `SHOT`. The shot column is written as a Cantina prompt fragment.                                                                                         |
| **Caption**        | The posted caption, written to earn a comment rather than describe the video.                                                                                                                      |
| **Hashtags**       | Platform-specific. Never more than five on TikTok.                                                                                                                                                 |
| **Test note**      | The one variable this script isolates, so the result means something.                                                                                                                              |
| **Cantina Prompt** | A fenced block you copy whole and paste straight into Cantina. Assumes the character is already loaded — it carries the script, tone, environment, shots, text style, audio, and hard constraints. |

## The Three Runtimes

We write to three lengths and almost nothing in between.

<CardGroup cols={3}>
  <Card title="15 seconds" icon="bolt">
    One hook, one payoff, no body. Highest completion rate on the platform and the only length where the hook is unambiguously the variable. Used by the [15s Hook Tests](/social/scripts/hook-tests-15s) pack.
  </Card>

  <Card title="30 seconds" icon="stopwatch">
    One idea, one payoff, no digression. Used for quizzes, stitches, label parodies, and receipt decodes. Highest completion rate, which is the metric TikTok rewards hardest.
  </Card>

  <Card title="60 seconds" icon="clock">
    A setup, a turn, and a payoff. Used when the science needs a mechanism, not just a fact. Buys watch time at the cost of completion rate.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

Below 15 seconds there is not enough watch time to earn reach even at full completion. Anything over 75 seconds needs a story reason, not a content reason.

<Warning>
  **The 1.5 second rule.** The hook must land a complete idea before the 1.5 second mark, spoken *and* on screen. Not a wind-up, not a greeting, not a logo. If the first frame is a brand asset, the script is wrong.
</Warning>

## The Data Token Rule

Professor High's authority is the whole product. A single fabricated statistic on camera costs more than a hundred views gain.

So scripts never hardcode a number that has to come from the database. They carry a token instead:

```
[DATA: dominant terpene % for Blue Dream — GET /api/v1/strains/slug/blue-dream/complete]
```

Production fills the token from the live API or the [Verified Data Sheet](/social/scripts/verified-data) at shoot time. A script with an unfilled token does not get rendered.

Numbers that are already verified and stable — the terpene distribution, the THC percentiles — are written inline and sourced to the data sheet.

<Warning>
  **Inventory is not a story.** Do not build a hook, caption, or on-screen line around how many strains we have. A database count is a fact about us; nobody shares a video because a company had a big table.

  Say **proportions**, which are claims about cannabis: "half of all cannabis is the same terpene," not "I analyzed N strains." When scale genuinely has to be stated, the framing is coverage plus on-demand research — "over 20,000 strains, research any of them on demand" — because that is the actual product. See [Rule One](/social/scripts/verified-data#rule-one-inventory-is-not-a-story).
</Warning>

## Voice Rules That Override Everything

Pulled from the [Professor High character bible](/social/strategy/brand-voice) and hard-enforced in every script here.

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Never say" icon="ban">
    "Cures," "treats," "heals." No medical claims, ever. No stoner-cliché voice — no "dude," no "blaze it." No dispensary or product endorsements.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Always say" icon="check">
    High Families instead of indica/sativa. "Research suggests" when the science is soft. A specific number instead of an adjective, whenever one exists.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

The comedy comes from Professor High being **completely sincere in an absurd situation** — a pineapple in a lab coat running a courtroom, scoring a stranger's jars, doing his best work at 3 AM. He never winks at the camera. The moment he acknowledges the bit is funny, it stops being funny.

## How To Use A Script Pack

<Steps>
  <Step title="Refresh the data sheet">
    Run the queries on the [Verified Data Sheet](/social/scripts/verified-data). Numbers move as the pipeline researches more strains.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a pack and fill the tokens">
    Every `[DATA: ...]` token gets a real value. Unfilled token means the script is not shootable.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Lock the character">
    Paste the character-lock block from the [Production Spec](/social/scripts/production-spec) into Cantina before generating any shot. Same block, every video, every time.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Shoot hook A">
    Generate the full episode with the A hook. Keep the B and C hook text with the project files — re-cutting a hook is cheap, re-shooting an episode is not.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Log it before posting">
    Add the row to the [performance log](/social/scripts/testing-framework#the-performance-log) with the script ID, hook ID, and post time. A video posted without a log row is a wasted test.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read the result at 48 hours and 7 days">
    Apply the [decision rules](/social/scripts/testing-framework#decision-rules). Scale, iterate, or cut.
  </Step>
</Steps>
