Bruce Almighty Page #28

BRUCE:

In honor of this event, the

Kowolski brothers have baked a one-

of-a-kind, creation.

The brothers proudly unveil the special cookie and we see

that it's a HUGE SYRINGE SHAPED CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE.

BRUCE:

Sure, a little creepy and a

shameless plug, but we love 'em.

(Bruce breaks off a little

piece, takes a bite)

Mmm, good needle. Remember, that's

Kowolski's bakery. The bakery that

gets more air time than a high

speed chase.

Everyone laughs. The Kowolski brothers beam.

Bruce takes a seat as a VOLUNTEER NURSE pulls up his sleeve,

revealing the prayer beads worn around his wrist. She ties

off his arm, starts to probe for a vein.

BRUCE:

To be honest, I've never been a big

fan of shots. . .

The volunteer now is swabbing Bruce's arm and Bruce is

starting to sweat.

BRUCE:

(nervous)

Okay, we're good to go...They just

stick it into my arm. Breaking

through the skin, of course...

The volunteer pulls out the needle and Bruce PASSES OUT COLD.

Gasps, the Nurse leans close, total silence, then:

BRUCE:

BLLLAAAA!

Bruce jolts awake making the Nurse and several people jump.

They all laugh.

BRUCE:

Had you going, didn't IIIIII1

He reacts to the nurse POKING the needle in. Everyone laughs

more.

BRUCE:

No, this is nothing. In fact, this

is the second time I've given blood

this week. For those of you who

haven't heard, I ' d like you to meet

the soon to be Mrs. Exclusive.

He throws a look to Grace who smiles in return. The crowd

applauds.

BRUCE:

This is Bruce Nolan reporting for

Eyewitness News.

The camera cuts. Bruce lowers his mic, turns to Grace.

BRUCE:

So, what'd you think?

GRACE *

I don't know, I thought it was very *

pleasurable. *

Bruce smiles, they kiss...

As the blood drive continues, we push through the crowd,

heading somewhere. Bodies clear frame and we see the

HOMELESS MAN sitting on a park bench. His sign reads:

THEE END:

The Homeless Man smiles into camera. We continue forward and

in a slow, mysterious, subtle fashion his face slowly

transforms into the very pleased, FACE OF GOD, who winks and
