RICK:

Cole, what the hell are you doing?

COLE:

She's mine!

He drives off.

RICK:

He's kidnapped her! Everyone into

the bus!

They all board the bus.

EXT. CITY STREET

As Cole rounds a corner, a tire comes loose and rolls off

the car -- thanks to Chulo's shoddy workmanship.

INT. PORSCHE

COLE:

Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t.

He looks to the rear and sees Rick's bus not far behind them.

Suddenly he spots something O.S. He grabs Debbie and runs

OUT OF FRAME.

EXT. CITY STREET

A city maintenance truck is driving slowly down the center

of the street. A man in the back of the truck is leisurely

placing orange cones in the center line of the road.

Cole, with Debbie in tow, grabs the truck's DRIVER and hauls

him out of his seat. He then places Debbie inside the truck

and him at the wheel. He peels out. Our man with the cones

in the back is unaware of what has happened. He keeps placing

the cones on the street. However, now the truck is hitting

speeds in the upper 70's. The man's leisure pace speeds up.

He rapidly places cones on the road at break-neck speed.

INT. RICK'S BUS

Rick, is plowing into the cones and knocking them all over.

MAINTENANCE TRUCK

Our man with the cones is almost completely exhausted.

EXT. HIGHWAY

Rick is in pursuit, knocking over cones. He's almost caught

up with Cole.

EXT. STREET

The vehicles reach the top of the hill. Cole grabs a sharp

left and pulls into a movie theater parking lot. The maneuver

loses Rick for a second. Rick jams on the brakes and doubles

back into the parking lot.

EXT. MOVIE THEATER PARKING LOT

Cole pulls up with a SCREECH in front of the theater. He

grabs Debbie and jumps out of the truck. He drags her into

the theater entrance.

Rick brings his bus to a stop and he and the gang pour out

of the bus.

COLE:

He and Debbie stand outside the

theater, which is a multi-plex cinema.

Fourteen movie theaters under one

roof. Prominent is a sign which reads:

"24 HOUR 3D FESTIVAL!" Cole drags

Debbie into one of the theaters. The

gang runs up to the theaters.

RICK:

Fan out and look for them.

They all go running into various theaters.

ANGLE - RYKO

He approaches a theater and sees the title of the movie

playing inside.

RYKO:

Aw, I've seen this one already.

Rick chooses a theater and goes inside.

INT. MOVIE THEATER

The patrons are wearing their 3D glasses, watching the action

on the screen. On the movie screen we SEE a man and a woman

arguing. Cole and Debbie enter the theater. They run down to

the front of the screen, heading for an exit. Rick enters.

He gives chase and catches up with Cole.

He takes a swing at Cole and Cole swings back. Behind them

on the screen a man has come to the rescue of the woman.

A fight starts in the movie, also. The patrons sit calmly

watching the action. Miraculously, Rick's fight with Cole is

in perfect sync with the actors in the movie. Rick hits Cole

with a punch that sends him backwards into several movie

patrons. The patrons are impressed by the realism of the

film's special effects. Cole throws a punch. Rick ducks. The

punch hits a MAN in the front row in the mouth.

MAN:

(to LADY next to him)

Gee, what a realistic effect.

WOMAN:

Yeah, like you're in the movie with

them.

Rick climbs over several rows and continues to pummel Cole.

Cole grabs a woman's purse and begins to hit Rick with it.

Cole runs out of the aisle as Rick climbs over people and

dives onto Cole, knocking him to the aisle.

PATRON:

(to his date)

Best 3D I've ever seen.

As the movie ends, Rick has Cole by the collar and is dragging

him out of the theater.

INT. MALL OUTSIDE THEATER

Rick exits the theater with Cole. He tosses Cole to Chulo.

Debbie comes running behind Rick.

RICK:

(to Debbie)

Are you okay?

DEBBIE:

Yeah.

RICK:

This has been quite a night. Here's

a thought. Why don't we go home and

give our private parts a workout?

DEBBIE:

(hugging him)

You're so romantic...

The Patrons are exiting. All of them are very up and excited

by their 3D experience.

WOMAN:

Absolutely amazing.

A Man who has taken a punch and has had his jacket ripped to

shreds doesn't seem pleased.

MAN:

I've seen better.

EXT. BLUFF - DAY

It's another gorgeous day on the bluff overlooking the ocean.

Just right for Rick and Debbie's wedding. We SEE the wedding

in progress. The area is adorned with flowers.
