mission: get dad a girlfriend 💖 #movietropes #dineychannel #comingofage #chickflick #comedy
The aspiring rock star and the bookish future archaeologist agree on one important thing: waffles count as dinner.
Jenna Lu plays both sisters in a comedy sketch framed as the opening of every Disney Channel movie. There are introductory voiceovers, neatly contrasting personalities and an author dad who spends most of his time writing. Before long, the sisters have identified the plot: he needs a girlfriend, and they intend to help.
The Short drew roughly 660,000 views in its first day, compared with around 36,000 for Jenna's usual Short. It is a particularly strong start for a sketch that plays like the opening minutes of a much longer story.
Jenna gives the responsible sister a face-buried-in-a-book entrance and the self-description "Wise beyond my years." The family backstory arrives through a framed photograph, establishing that their mother died when they were little. Then it is straight into making waffle batter and introducing Dad's romantic predicament. These are fictional characters, not an account of Jenna's family.
Viewers are filling in the rest of the imaginary movie themselves: a falling-out between the sisters, a romantic mistake Dad will need help fixing, and an author somehow supporting a very large house. Several recognize an Olsen-twins flavor, specifically mentioning Billboard Dad. Others want Jenna to turn the opening into a full-length story or a series. For now, she has supplied the sisters, the dinner and the mission.
