We see a hand place a NOTE on a table.

CHOZEN (V.O.)

Yo Tracy, I’m sorry I let you down.

You was right, a girl needs her bigbrother.

The hand lays out JOLLY RANCHERS around the note in a frame.

CHOZEN (V.O.)

I shouldn’t have rented all them

movies either. It’s just ChanningTatum, dude is magnetic, I can’tget enough.

33.

A “DEAR JOHN” DVD is placed next to the note, a few jollyranchers around it.

CHOZEN (V.O.) (CONT’D)

Enjoy these candies and this “DearJohn” movie disc. Hopefully it willtouch you as much as it touched me.

Be at the Study Hall tonight!

Feelings, Chozen.

We follow as a pair of NEW RED SNEAKERS leave the room. Asthe door shuts pan up to reveal Tracy’s empty dorm room.

Music continues under as-

We see the group synced up perfectly, just like in the olddays, controlling the stage, having the time of their lives.

Some of the crowd is warming up.

Back on the group

The guys look up to see Jimmy’s head poking out of the bar,

Tracy and Troy are with him, waving.

CHOZEN:

Chozen, Troy, Crisco, and Ricky walk towards the bar. Wefollow from behind.

RICKY:

CHOZEN:

We hold from behind as the guys walk to the bar door,

conversation becoming unintelligible. Pan over to a BLACKLIMO with the window half way down, PHANTASM. The windowslides up.

INT. LIMO - NIGHT
