Title - Pimp my Janitor's ride.
The film opens with a shot of three teenagers sprinting towards a Rover saloon, where they then proceed to start vandalising the car by spray painting it. A scene then takes place between two male teenagers in a classroom, with one lad stating that he just received a text about the hooligans defacing their respected janitor's car. After some discussion, the lads decide - with reference to a popular car modification show spawned on MTV - to 'Pimp' their janitors ride.
The filmmakers then parody the MTV 'Pimp my ride show' with each student giving a piece to camera as mock 'mechanical techy', detailing what modification to the vehicle they are going to make. The segment concludes with lead the presenter student saying, "Right that's the plan. It's going to be bling, bling, bling. Now let's raid the art room". The next sequence uses sped up motion to capture the students making aesthetic 'enhancements' to the Rover saloon in the car park, and the sequence is interspersed with some of the teaming showing off their modification.
The janitor arrives in the car park and is greeted by the students who announce, that while he's been tidying the floors, "They've been tidying his street rep". The student presenter then does the MTV programmes official catch phrase, saying, "You've officially been pimped", and flicking the janitor's jumpers in the traditional Westwood (real presenter of MTV show) fashion. Continuing to congratulate the boys on a job well done, the janitor gets into another vehicle and the boys realise that they have 'Pimped' the wrong car. The film ends with the camera dropping to floor and sounds of the boys running away.
