Capture the Flag Page #3

Synopsis: Mike Goldwing, a plucky, determined 12-year old boy, is the son and grandson of NASA astronauts. His grandfather Frank, a once revered, but now forgotten retired astronaut, lives his days isolated from his family after missing out on his big chance to fly to the moon with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin as a part of the Apollo XI mission. When an eccentric billionaire sets an evil plan to fly to the moon, steal the moon's vast mineral resources, and destroy the American flag planted by the Apollo XI team, Mike embarks on a magnificent adventure as a stowaway on the space shuttle. Accompanied by his grandfather, best friends Amy and Marty, and a clever chameleon, Mike blasts off to the moon to capture the flag and reunite his family.

- It's safer. Brace yourselves!

Oh!

Come on...!

- Oh!

Scott, jump!

Jump!

Jump!!

Ah!

I'm gonna die without

kissing a girl...

I'm gonna die without

kissing a girl!

Well don't look at me, coward.

Are you alright, guys?

Yes, Dad.

Igor? Igor!

Igor isn't breathing!

He needs the mouth-to-mouth!

What?! No way!

Mike, do it, dude!

Look at the poor thing!

Uh, I'll pass. It's your pet.

Oh man!

I was hoping my first kiss

would be with a model!

Dad, are you alright?

Argh!

- Can you move?

- Why do you care?

That NASA mission is still

going forward?!

Argh! No one defies

Richard Carson! No one!

Gags, let's start the test!

Everything is ready, sir.

Perfect. Crank it up, Gigs!

Hum...

Impressive! 20 times

more powerful than nuclear energy!

It'll be the biggest

monopoly in History.

Now, Gigs,

let's try it as a weapon.

Excuse me, sir.

You'll destroy the model.

And we have to keep testing it.

Who cares?!

I care, sir. It took me 8 months

to build it piece by piece.

Cheer up, you're hired

for another 8 months.

Gigs, activate the weapon!

Yes, sir. But...

Gigs, I told you to

activate the weapon!

Worked as a charm.

But there's a little issue, sir.

So... fix it!

But the thing is... Gags

was still there...

Oh!

Well, congratulations, Gigs.

You've just been promoted.

You're now

a model supervisor.

Scott, you can't go on like this,

cheer up.

You'll have another chance.

No, I won't!

It was the only one and I've lost it.

Thanks to my father.

Honey, it was an accident.

- That doesn't matter now!

No Goldwing

will ever get to the Moon

It's a curse.

I know it's disappointing,

but there are more important things.

You don't get it!

Going to the Moon

and getting the flag was my mission!

The Moon is every astronaut's

dream!

What is there more important than that?

Maybe you're the one

who doesn't get it!

History is repeating itself.

My father will leave

and become

a grumpy old man,

like my grandfather

My family is a disaster.

Come on, don't say such things.

You've managed to reunite them

after, like, a thousand years.

Yeah, and things just got

a thousand times worse.

I'm an idiot.

Don't be like that!

Stop whining or

I'll kick your butt

and send you to the Moon.

Ha, that would be cool.

A butt on the Moon!

Wow! Amy, you are a genius!

Who? Her...? Ha!

My grandfather couldn't go,

my father couldn't either, but I can!

I'll go to the Moon!

Yeah, someday...

Not someday. In two weeks!

What are you talking about?

It's crazy,

but I could hide

in the rocket and...

Yeah right, come back to Earth.

It would end the curse.

I'll do what my father and grandfather

couldn't do,

and everything will be fine!

I'm going to the Moon!

And you two are going to help me.

Who's with me?

I am! Marty?

Wait, let me see if I get it.

You're gonna to get into

that old junk and

fly at 20,000mph?

Yeah.

And go to a place where

there's no oxygen or gravity?

Yeah.

A place where, until now,

only 12 astronauts have gone?

Yeah.

Ah, screw it!

You are "astronishing"!

I'm in!

Yeah! Yeah! I'm going to the Moon!

Ah!

Uh, dude, the Moon's that way.

So, in order to reach the rocket

you gotta get to

the launching platform first.

But it's like a fortress

surrounded by the sea

and protected by a metal fence.

I've examined the options and

I think this is the best one...

Igor! It's not time

to play Godzilla!

Come here, Igor.

Guys, let's focus.

Marty, what's our best option?

Giving up, man. It's impossible to get inside.

Doesn't matter how crazy you are.

Come on! There's gotta be a way.

Something the three of us can do.

No, the two of you.

What? Are you backing down?

Who's the coward now?

If my parents catch me,

I'll be grounded for life.

They're very strict with rules.

They'll send me to a military academy

like 3 of my 52 cousins.

What...?

52 plus the twins of the step-sister

of the sister in law of my uncle Pablo.

Yeah, excuses.

I'm so sorry.

Just ignore him, Amy.

Don't worry. We'll manage.

Well you better come up with something,

Michael Goldwing.

There's no way we can get in there.

There is a way!

What was that?

I heard something.

Come on, you've become

a scaredy-cat since you saw

"Revenge of the Zombie-Rats".

That one wasn't half as

scary as "Piranha-Zombie 3".

Dude, you have to

do something about that...

Marty, don't make a sound.

Ok.

I'll be as silent as a ninja.

This way!

Uh! That was close!

What was that?

Darn rocks...

You and your zombie-rats...

It must've been an alligator.

Whatever that was, it's gone.

Oh!

What the...?

Marty...

Ah! I almost had a heart attack, dude!

There it is!

See? It's just an alligator.

Don't fall off again.

I'm trying,

but this is full of... rocks?

Igor, just what's

going on with you?

Can you stop making noise?

I'm sorry.

Igor's gone bananas!

I don't know what's up with him.

Argh!

Mike, I think we forgot something...

Sure, sealing your mouth

with glue.

No, it's much worse! Alligators!

Igor, attack and destroy!

Marty-Punch!

Marty-Poke-in-the-Eye!

Marty-Blinding-Light!

What the heck is going on?

- Zombie-rats. It's the zombie-rats!

Will you stop that?

Marty-Lightsaber!

It's not working!

Not working! Ah!

Amy!

I knew you couldn't make it

without me, Carrothead!

What are you saying?

It's all under control!

Guys, prepare to jump!

Turn on the fans

in three, two, one...

Uh, guys?

Two...

Guys...

One...

I don't have a fan!

Come on!

Higher, higher!

I'll need a bigger fan!

Ah!

Marty!

I'm stuck!

Wait, we'll get you out.

Don't worry,

the guards are coming, go!

Thank you, dude, we owe you one.

Go on without me!

I will sacrifice myself for

this mission! I'll be fine... Uh...

Igor, where are you going?

You traitor!

Don't leave me!

There you have your zombie-rat...

Mr. Carson,

can you look here?

Sir, a picture, please.

- Mr. Carson, a question.

What do you hope

to find on the Moon?

Bye bye, earthlings!

I'm going to make history!

Did you check

the ventilation systems?

Yes, everything's working.

Wait, Mike!

It'll be better if I go home now.

OK, but I need you to

close the hatch.

The thing is I sleepwalk.

Sounds weird, I know.

But when I woke up,

I didn't know how to go back and...

You think you are so smart, huh?

This is abuse of authority.

I demand to speak to your boss.

Don't worry, here he comes.

Uh, oh...

Wow! Amy, look at this!

I can't believe we're here.

Are you alright, son?

Dad.

Hey, what were you doing in the launching zone?

Uh... I'll only speak

in presence of my lawyer.

Marty!

"Marty, do you copy?"

"We're in the casserole."

"Can you hear me? We're in."

In? What does that "in" mean?

When you arrive on the Moon

take a picture, OK?

It'll be the cover

of the school newspaper.

Sure.

Can you tell me how on Earth

did you get here?!

Uh, Grandpa...

What are you doing here?

Have you gone crazy?

Get out! Now!

What have you done?

Sabotage in process.
