S. Darko Page #2

Synopsis: July, 1995, the time is out of joint. Two teen girls, Sam and Corey, have left Virginia for L.A. to start over. Sam's brother has died and her family's shattered; Corey's too wild. They have car trouble in a small desert town, where Corey immediately starts her partying ways, where a meteorite strikes a windmill, and where a burned-out Desert Storm vet predicts the end of the world in four days. Sam hallucinates while sleepwalking, young men have disappeared from town, and cars come out of nowhere to cause accidents. Time travel may be possible, but it takes courage and resolve. Is the addled war veteran right? If he is, can Corey or Sam make things right?

Your mom was really cool to me.

Doesn't mean anything.

She just used you to get younger guys.

At least I'm good for something.

Ever tag-team a 40-year-old?

- Don't.

- Hey.

- You girls new in town?

- Just passing through.

Well, if you're gonna be around

a little while...

you might as well stop

and get some pizza at my Bible study.

- It's a lot of fun.

- Oh, I'm satanic.

She's half Jehovah, quarter Jew,

tiny bit retarded.

Mmm. Well, we're nondenominational.

We accept all types,

even those with horns.

- What's it like to never be able to have sex?

- Excuse me?

Do you just have

blue balls all the time...

or you just have to spank it

constantly?

Well, I haven't always had

a personal relationship with the Lord.

But I'm not missing anything.

I used to be just like you.

- What, you had a training bra?

- Not exactly.

But when I was your age,

I experienced things...

that made me feel

like God didn't exist.

Maybe you've experienced

something like that too.

- You don't know anything about me.

- I can see that you're in pain.

- I'm alive.

- Is that how you see life?

Till farts taste

like cherries, yeah.

What do you think

God's farts taste like?

Marshmallow Peeps.

Well, you can make fun all you want.

But that's just denial.

Blow me.

You make up your own mind.

Read these words.

God has all the time

in the world for you.

Four days, nine hours...

five minutes...

Frank know you're in here?

Does he?

I killed babies-

brains spilling out of their heads

like macaroni.

Tiny feet with little baby toes

blown off just-

just lying in the road.

You know, if you didn't dress and talk like that,

man, people wouldn't be so freaked out.

At least, lose the slingshot.

No. How would I fight back?

All right. Keep the slingshot.

Lose the "camo. "

No. I- No.

Then they could see me.

Look, you'd better get outta here

before Frank comes back.

- They made me do it.

- Who?

- The leaders.

- Okay.

She needs me.

Who?

- The princess.

- Right.

Look, she saved me.

She can- She can do anything.

- She can even save Billy.

- What you know about Billy?

Don't believe the milk carton.

Get down!

- Hey! Hey, can you hear me?

- You don't have to scream.

You need to tell them, okay?

You tell everyone!

- Tell 'em what?

- The world is going to end!

You hobo humpin', slobo babe

A-get it off, get off

get off of me

You hobo humpin', slobo babe

A-get it off, get off

get off of me

Baby, we don't love ya

Baby, we don't love ya, baby, yeah

Seeking candy

On the shore

Lost her eyesight

Teeth are poor

Left for dead

Back for more

Left for dead

Seeking candy

Who sleeps around

Afraid of tellin'

Tiny sounds

Left for dead

Left for good

Left for dead

Not understood

-

- Sorry.

Oops.

Sorry, man.

Right under my nose.

I wanted to buy your lunch.

That's sweet.

I don't usually come

to these kind of things.

So, uh...

why'd you come to this one?

Well, I guess I thought,

you know, maybe if-

Hey. You might wanna

check on your friend.

Broken kneecap

Velvet spine

Left for dead

Left for good

-

- Well, hello.

- Are you okay?

- Don't be so annoying.

So, um, you should come and check out

the club when it's all set up.

You get V.I.P. treatment.

You know, I can't say

I haven't thought about it.

I got her! Yea!

This your brother?

Yeah.

Where is he?

He's, uh- He's dead, probably.

How?

He just disappeared.

Like Billy Moorcroft?

The police think

it could be the same guy.

You wanna see his room?

Sure.

Uh, hey, don't...

touch anything.

My dad'll freak.

- What about your mom?

- She bailed.

She was kind of a b*tch anyway.

If you want to

sit on the bed, you can.

That's what the plastic's for.

So what's it like in-

- Virginia.

- Virginia.

It sucks.

It's like everybody knows

everything about me...

but I'm invisible at the same time.

So it's like

the worst of both worlds.

Well, in high school...

if you're not invisible,

you're an a**hole.

- Or a teacher.

- Or both.

So you got brothers and sisters?

A sister.

Got married.

Made tons of money,

made a new family.

Never see her anymore.

Damn.

Sometimes it just feels like...

- I could-

- Like what?

I don't know.

Sometimes I just wish I could...

switch places

with someone, you know?

That why you're goin'

to California-

try and be somebody else?

I always wanted to be a dancer...

like in a troupe or something.

You know, it probably

sounds kind of cheesy.

No. No.

So what about this club?

Corey thinks we can work there.

- Dancing?

- I guess.

She givin' out a few freebies along the way?

What, is that supposed to be, like, some kind

of a judgment or something?

- Wait. No, no. I just-

- Where's the bathroom?

- I-I didn't-

- This place is giving me the creeps.

I didn't mean it like that.

What are you waiting for?

Why me?

I've done a lot of bad things.

Do you want to do something else?

I like it here, with you.

Turn around.

The beginning of the end

starts here.

I don't wanna hurt anyone.

But they want to hurt you.

What's happening?

Everything.

Burn it to the ground.

Hi. Are you planning

on checking out today?

Uh-

Well, you're already

two days behind, so-

I gotta find my friend,

check on the car.

Maybe you should go for the weekly rate,

save yourself some money.

Thanks. Yeah.

I'm very jealous, you know.

Road-trippin' cross-country.

Seein' America like Sal and Dean,

Thelma and Louise-

Easy Rider style.

- You know, bandits on the run. Yeah.

- Okay. Well, I-I gotta go.

Okey dokey.

Oh, that's good though.

Hey, did you ever hear about that island

where Elvis Presley and Jimi Hendrix...

and, you know, uh,

Janis Joplin, they're all-

They're not dead, you know?

Jim Morrison.

They're all just there playin' music.

Have you heard of that?

Must have melted from the heat.

This church was made of brick...

these crosses made of iron.

You think a simple fire did this?

What are you saying then, John?

I'm saying there are forces

at work here.

I feel it in my soul- something evil.

Here we go.

Son of a b*tch.

This town will crucify him.

I just can't believe it. I just-

I can't believe it's real.

It's gonna be all right, Trudy.

You're gonna get through this.

- Um, excuse me.

- Yes?

Is everything okay?

No. No, actually, it's not.

Mount Calvary burned

to the ground last night.

The police are investigating, but-

I already know it's arson.

- How do you know?

- Call it a feeling.

- I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

- Amen.

Really?

Mmm, what's he like?

He's, um-

He's big and strong.

Tan, lots of muscles.

And he's got lightning bolts

shooting out of his eyes.

- No, really.

- It's true. He's awesome.

He chose me.

Conejo Springs

used to be a decent place.

Then came the drugs and... anus sex.

But each of us is responsible...

to make a little change,

however we can.

We need to get to the children

before they spoil.

Oh. My bracelet.

It's from John.

He knows I love Jesus the most.
