Paul Page #5

Synopsis: Two sci-fi geeks take a pilgrimage to America's UFO heartland. While there, they accidentally meet an alien who brings them on an insane road trip that alters their universe forever. For the past 60 years, an alien named Paul (voiced by Seth Rogen) has been hanging out at a top-secret military base. When he discovers he's been taken prisoner, the space-traveling smart ass decides to escape the compound and hop on the first vehicle out of town - a rented RV containing Earthlings Graeme Willy (Simon Pegg) and Clive Gollings (Nick Frost). Chased by federal agents and the fanatical father of a young woman that they accidentally kidnap, Graeme and Clive hatch a fumbling escape plan to return Paul to his mother ship. And as two nerds struggle to help, one little green man might just take his fellow outcasts from misfits to intergalactic heroes.

You've been abducted. The individual

that you're travelling with is highly dangerous.

Oh no, he's not dangerous.

I mean, he's kind of rude ...

He curses a lot ...

And a couple of times I've seen

him scratch his ...

... space man ... balls.

Please listen to me. Your father is

extremely worried about you ...

... and we'd like to get

you home Miss Buggs.

He showed me things.

She's talking about his

spaceman balls.

You know I'm just trying to

help you, right Ruth?

beer soke slobber knocker.

See anything unusual?

Couple hillbilly types in the back

of that meat wagon won't stop crying.

Did you gentlemen see anything

unusual this evening?

Are we sure?

Thank you.

bFUCK YOU/b

- It's a nice window.

- This is the little cowboy, isn't it?

I'll tell you, tell you, that's just funny.

It was when you

kiss me yesterday.

- Sorry.

- No.

I was like, "Girl for you rapists !"

Do it again if you like.

What?

Said, you can do it

again if you like.

Really?

If you're gonna try it, then maybe

you should do it with a friend, you know ...

... rather than some stranger, because,

there's a lot weirdos out there.

Oh, I am planning on doing a lot of kissing ...

... and fornicating so ...

... you'd really be helping me out.

Great.

Wh ... what ... do you mean now?

F*** ! I'm sorry.

I tought I was gonna pass out ...

Carry on ...

- How's that mate?

- Nothin' nothin', just hangin' around.

They were about to make out.

It was awkward ! ...

We were just ...

Good ...

Please put your shorts on Paul.

You guys partake?

No, thank you.

I'll partake.

Are you sure?

It's pretty strong sh*t.

I got it from the military actually.

This is the stuff that killed Dylan.

Bob Dylan is not dead.

Isn't he?

Hit me.

Ok, just ... you know ... go easy on it.

Ruth ...

A little bit, a little bit.

It's not so bad.

To be fair, it takes a while

to be absorbed in.

Oh, sh*t ...

I'm hungry. We should

cook up some saussages.

Do we have any saussages?

What do you mean by that?

Why do you guys hate me?

Can we go cook up

some saussages?

Oh, I have waspes in my brain !

She'll be fine ...

That happened to me the first time.

Paul ...

I was gonna ask ...

you know us right?

Yeah, Graeme we're

like modified BFF.

Why are you in such

a hurry to leave now?

Well, according to the Government,

I fulfilled my usefulness.

I told them eveything I know,

the only thing I've left off for them now ...

... are my abilities.

The healing, the thought transfer,

the camouflage.

In order to cultivate those abilities,

they need some of my stem cells.

And I'm not really down with that.

Lucky for me, I do have

one friend left on the inside.

So, a man should get

... I got my people primed

and ready to pick me up.

Then, motherfuckers brought the
