Default strange squeeling noise??

So dad brings his 00 over the other day and says i have this squeeling noise when i take off under good amount of throttle. I get in and it is in between the front 2 seats and it only happens for about 2 seconds right when you take off. Checked u-joints they are good trans mounts ok. Any ideas? Not a big deal at the moment since i dont have to listen to it cause its not my jeep but i know dad will hound me about it again soon.

the belt could be loose and slipping for the 2 seconds of throttle while starting off.
