Kids Page #9

All right.

He puts the blunt in his mouth and lights it. A big flame

shoots up as it catches the end of the Phillie. Hamilton

takes a few big puffs and then blows the smoke away.

HAMILTON (cont’d)

Take two pulls and pass.

Hamilton passes the blunt to Casper. A bunch of kids start

huddling around Casper as he puffs.

STEVEN, a skinny Spanish kid with gold front teeth, walks up.

STEVEN:

Yo can I f*** wit dat?

Casper smiles and blows smoke in his face.

CASPER:

Yeah boy!

Casper hits it again and then hands it to Steve, who takes

immense hits.

.

Two male homosexuals in short shorts walk by holding hands.

54.

Steven turns his head and notices them. He exhales the smoke

out of his nose.

STEVEN:

Look at that.

HAROLD:

That sh*t is sick. F***in faggots.

CASPER:

(screaming at the top of

his lungs)

F***in faggots!!!

Everyone starts laughing.

CASPER (cont’d)

(as loud as possible)

Faggots!!!

Casper rubs his throat. People continue to laugh.

CASPER (cont’d)

My throat.

Telly is sitting away on the cement benches under the tree.

He is talking to Misha.

MISHA:

How can you hang out with Casper?

He's such a jerk.

TELLY:

You think so?

MISHA:

Yeah. I've always hated that kid.

He used to eat glue in like seventh

grade.

TELLY:

He still does.

MISHA:

I hate 'em.

TELLY:

It's not his fault. He had a hard

life.

MISHA:

Yeah?

55.

TELLY:

You've heard the stories right?

MISHA:

No.

EXT. NEW YORK SIDEWALK - DAY

Back in time. Casper is a little boy, age 11. He is walking

down the sidewalk with a lunch box and a "Casper the Friendly

Ghost" T-shirt. He is wearing his hat on backwards.

Music accompanies this entire episode.

TELLY (V.O.)

Well, one day Casper had a

stomachache and he got permission

from his teacher to leave school

early and go home.

Casper walks up to a nice middle-class home, it could be in

Queens or Brooklyn, it doesn't matter. He pulls out a key and

opens the door. He enters his home.

INT. CASPER'S HOUSE - DAY

The house is dark. Plastic on all the furniture. A velvet

picture of Christ is hanging on the wall in the hallway. Very

simple and plain, a generic adobe.

Casper enters his house and flips on a lightswitch.

TELLY (V.O.)

So he walks into his house and

hears some strange noises.

The sounds of his mother screaming from upstairs.

CASPER'S MOM

(screaming from upstairs)

Get away! Get away! Help! You

monster! Please help!

Casper puts his lunch box down and walks to the first stair

to listen to his mother's screams.

TELLY (V.O.)

The noises were coming from

upstairs. In his parents room.

Casper's mom continues to scream from upstairs.

56.

TELLY (V.O.) (cont’d)

So, this freaked the hell out of

Casper. He was just a little kid

and he wasn't sure what to do.

Casper moves off the step and runs into the kitchen.

TELLY (V.O.) (cont’d)

So he ran and got a big knife. The

same knife his pops used to cut the

turkey on Thanksgiving with.

He opens a drawer full of silverware and pulls out a

humongous glistening knife. He picks it up, and it shines on

his face.

As his mother screams he looks up at the ceiling with the

knife in his hand.

CASPER'S MOM

(screaming from upstairs)

Stop! Please stop! Oooh help!

Casper runs up the stairs, he is holding the knife straight

out.

TELLY (V.O.)

So he heard his mom's screams, and

knew that she was in trouble. It

sounded like she was getting ready

to be killed. Like someone was

kicking her in the head.

Casper runs down the hall and opens the door to his parents

room.

What he sees is very shocking. His face becomes extremely

animated.

Casper's mom is on the bed. She is completely naked except

for a pair of bright red high heel shoes. In between her legs

is a man wearing all black, including a black ski mask and

motorcycle boots. He is having sex with Casper's mom. He has

her arms pinned down on the bed. He is grunting like a pig.

Casper watches for a moment in awe.

MAN IN BLACK:

B*tch. You f***in b*tch. F***in b*tch. Slutty whore.

The man in black slaps Casper's mom hard on her naked ass.

.

57.

CASPER'S MOM

(screaming)

No! Stop! Get off me!

She is struggling to get loose.

TELLY (V.O.)

So Casper opened the door and he

saw some big guy with a ski mask

f***ing his mother. What a sight

for an 11 year old kid.

Casper runs up to the bed. He climbs on top of the bed with

the big knife in the air, all the while the man in black is

having sex with his mother. And they don't even notice Casper

at first.

TELLY (V.O.) (cont’d)

And he goes and jumps on his

parent's bed. And for a second he

just looks and watches.

Casper takes his knife and starts stabbing the guy in black,

over and over. His mother is kicking and trying to stop him.

All the while, she is screaming outrageously and blood is

pouring out.

TELLY (V.O.) (cont’d)

And you know. Casper loved his mom,

he didn't want anything to happen

to her. So he started stabbing this

guy, over and over. But it was a

mistake.

Casper's mom is kicking Casper as he stabs the man.

Casper is biting his tongue as he stabs the man.

The man falls off the bed and onto the floor.

Casper's mom is going totally nuts. She is completely naked,

with blood all over her body. There is blood all over the

sheets. His mom is clawing her face in complete hysterics.

CASPER'S MOM

You f***!!! It's your father!!! We

were playing a game you f***!!!

That's your father!!! We were just

playing!!!

Casper looks very confused as he looks at his naked mother.

He has the knife in his hand, and a little blood on his T-

shirt and cheek.

58.

Casper's mom continues to yell at him.

CASPER'S MOM (cont’d)

Casper, you f***er!!! Oh, my god!!!

Help me God!!!

Casper looks at his mother, then he looks at the dead guy on

the floor. He bends down and takes off the mask. It's his

father.

.

CASPER:

(calmly)

That's my dad.

CASPER'S MOM

(crying)

You f***. You killed your father!

TELLY (V.O.)

So Casper killed his father. He

came home with a stomachache and

ended up murdering his pops. It was

a very embarrassing thing.

EXT. WASHINGTON SQUARE PARK - ON A CEMENT BENCH - DAY

Telly is in the same spot talking to Misha.

TELLY:

So that's why Casper is how he is.

MISHA:

Oh god. That's horrible.

A quick shot of Casper smoking a blunt and laughing with his

friends.

TELLY:

Yep.

MISHA:

Holy shi. That's all true?

TELLY:

No. I was just kidding.

MISHA:

(outraged)

What?!

TELLY:

I lied. His dad is still alive. He

works for the post office.

59.

EXT. WASHINGTON SQUARE PARK - ON THE FOUNTAIN - DAY

Casper and all his friends are passing around the blunt,

which by now is almost gone. All that is left is a roach and

Casper is sucking on it really hard.

Casper breathes out the smoke and then passes the roach to

Hamilton.
