CLOSE ON THE GIRL

We recognize her as the frozen girl. Her name, RIZZO (18), pretty.

She screams. Turns.

HER POV:

Standing at the end of the corridor, back lit and ominous is JASON

VOORHEES! He marches towards her.

She runs. Snatches a headset from a wall mount.

RIZZO:

Help me! Anyone! Somebody help me!

STATIC from the radio. Jason closing.

She reaches down and grabs a shot gun from a dead Security Guard. Chick-

chick. KABLAM!

Jason keeps coming.

She runs.

As she rounds a corner, we see - -

CRYOGENICS LAB:

She opens the door and enters the cold room. Slips on the wet frozen

ground, nearly falls.

ON JASON as he rounds the corner, sees the open door.

INT. CRYO LAB

Jason enters, his machete held ready. He stares at the Huge Cryo unit.

Door open. Otherwise the room is empty.

RIZZO(O.S.)

Hey!

Jason turns. Rizzo is standing in the hall, the shotgun ready.

RIZZO:

You son of a b*tch!

KABLAM! Jason slides backwards on the slick floor.

KABLAM! Further, he nearly falls.

KABLAM! He stumbles, falls backwards into the cryo-unit.

Rizzo slams her palm onto a console, the Cryo-unit door closes, JASON

INSIDE.

RIZZO tosses the gun to the floor and types on a keypad.

Steam HISSES, engines hum to life. The Cryo-Unit, Bucks violently.

COMPUTER VOICE:

Cryo-Unit activated.

Slowly the unit goes silent, still. Rizzo stares at it, approaches

slowly, staring at the fogging glass -

KA-CHING!

The MACHETE BURSTS THROUGH THE GLASS, slicing into Rizzo's shoulder!

ALARMS SOUND. The cryo lab's main door SLAMS shut.

COMPUTER VOICE:

Cryo-Unit leak. Lock down in progress.

Security measures on line.

RIZZO:

Nooooooo!

She rushes toward the door. It won't budge.

RIZZO:

Somebody! No!

CHSHSHSHSHSH!

Gas filters into the room from the leak in the Cryo-Unit.

COMPUTER VOICE:

Subject in computer unit has reached

full incubation.

Rizzo begins to fade. She stumbles.

RIZZO:

No . . .

Cryo gas rolls along the floor . . .

As blood pours from her wound, she reaches her bloody hand to the glass

window and draws -

A SKULL AND CROSSBONES.

-then passes out.

INT. LAB ONE

RIZZO'S EYES pop open. She gasps for breath. Coughing and splitting the

Gel-like substance. She's sitting in a foot of gel, naked; Yllo, Brodski

and the kids around her.

THORGAN:

That one did it!

Yllo moves close to Rizzo.

YLLO:

We should expect a moment of

disorientation.

WHAM! Rizzo punches Yllo in the nose.

DELONGPRE:

Spunky . . .

YLLO:

She broke my f***ing nose!

KAY-EM 14

Again proving that your ancestors were savages.

BRODSKI:

I like her already.

KAY-EM 14

Live signs full strength. Heart rate above normal -

Rizzo's disoriented, confused. Gel slops all around her.

RIZZO:

Where..? Who . . .?

(shock)

I'm alive. You brought me back.

YLLO:

(rubbing his nose)

Obviously so.

Rizzo looks down at her body, gel dripping off her naked flesh.

RIZZO:

What the hell is this sh*t?

Delongpre gives her a blanket. She covers herself.

RIZZO:

How did I get here, how did you bring me back?

YLLO:

Nanotechnology.

RIZZO:

Nano...but nanotechnology is impossible.

YLLO:

We've had Nano-Tech for the last 30 years.

RIZZO:

30? How long was I out?

Rizzo finally takes a good look at where she is. Something is very wrong

in her world.

YLLO:

The year is 2455. You've been frozen

for the past four hundred years.

Rizzo gasps -- a shocking revelation.

YLLO:

Now lay back we need to do some tests and I have some

questions...

RIZZO:

JASON?! WHERE IS HE?!

THORGAN:

The hockey player? He a friend of yours?

RIZZO:

Hockey player? He's not a ...

THORGAN:

He's dead! Everyone's dead! Old Earth is dead!

RIZZO:

Old Earth?

YLLO:

We need to do some tests...I'd like to ask you a

few questions.

RIZZO:

But...I...400 years?

YLLO:

That's right, now if you could...

Delongpre frowns at Yllo and moves to Rizzo.

DELONGPRE:

It can wait. Let's get you cleaned up.

Delongpre helps Rizzo off the table.

YLLO:

Wait a minute...I need...

BRODSKI:

Give it a rest Yllo. She needs some time.

DELONGPRE:

Come on.

INT. LAB FOUR

Rizzo stands at a small window looking out into space. Cleaned up she is

quite beautiful.

DELONGPRE(V.O.)

Rizzo?

Rizzo is startled. She looks around.

RIZZO:

Yeah?

Delongpre comes through the door with a plate of food.

DELONGPRE:

I thought that after 400 hundred years,

you just might have a little bit of an appetite.

He puts the food on a small table and moves to the window.

DELONGPRE:

You're on Grendel, a class IV Catamaran

transport.

It's basically a school bus. We're on our way

back to Earth II.

It's finals week.

She turns back to the window.

RIZZO:

You're telling me I'm a friggen class project?

Delongpre flinches, expecting to be hit.

DELONGPRE:

(a beat)

Sort of. I mean, no, not really ...

She collapses onto the bed.

DELONGPRE:

I'll give you a moment alone. Do you

want me to come get you when we start

the dissection?

Rizzo shrugs. She's lost everyone and everything. She's lot 400 years.

Delongpre backs out of the room, closing the door behind him.

Rizzo stares at the pile of her old clothes. She reaches into the pocket

of her tattered jacket and removes a set of keys. The key chain holds a

picture...a picture of her parents. She sits on the bed and starts to cry.

INT. LAB ONE

As Delongpre enters all eyes turn to him.

YLLO:

Well?

DELONGPRE:

She needs a little time.

YLLO:

More time...sh*t, she's had 400 years...

Yllo laughs at his own joke.

DELONGPRE:

That's really funny.

YLLO:

I'd want her statements before we reach porch.

Jesus, women.

DELONGPRE:

Yeah, like you'd be a rock after everything

she went through?

RIZZO(O.S.)

Dissection?

Theyturn. Rizzo approaches Delongpre and Yllo.

RIZZO:

Jason? He's on this ship?!

YLLO:

Of course he is. He's the most relevant find in

400 years...except for you, of course. Look if

you're worried about PR don't be. You're walking

and talking. He's a stiff. You'll get the

publicity.

RIZZO:

(glares)

Are you finished?

Yllo nods then --

WHAM!

Rizzo punches him again.

YLLO:

God damnit! Will you stop doing that?!

DELONGPRE:

Oh I like her a lot.

BRODSKI:

I'm with you kid.

RIZZO:

Where is he?

BRODSKI:

(points)

Lab two, relax. What's the matter?

He's dead.

RIZZO:

No, you're dead! You're all dead!

She shoves Delongpre out of the way and out the door.

INT. LAB TWO - MOMENTS LATER

The others enter to find Rizzo leaning over Adrienne's headless body.

YLLO:

Jesus!

JANESSA:

Oh my God! Adrienne?

THORGAN:

What have you done?

RIZZO:

What have I done?! Idiots.

Thorgan throws up.

BOEMAN:

(into a mike)

Brodski! Get to Lab two. We have an

emergency!

DELONGPRE:

Er, guys. Where's the Hockey Player?

RIZZO:

I'll tell you where he is. He's walking

around this ship, killing anything that

moves.

JANESSA:

Maybe she tripped.

Brodski and Kicker burst into Lab Two, they react to the carnage.

BRODSKI:

Jesus, God!

KICKER:

Oh man, what the hell happened?

RIZZO:

Jason! Can't you see? He did this.

YLLO:

Impossible! He was dead before he entered

Cryo-statis. There is no possible way he could

be alive.

RIZZO:

I didn't say he was alive.
