The Finales I: Date Of Fire Page #15

Emma:
Honey?

We cut to them waiting in line, Chase then shows Lo a lego figure.

Lo:
What is that from?

Chase:
The new anime! Emma’s buying, I’m keeping.

Lo:
I’m buying me a copy of Spider-Man and buying Dave one too.

Emma:
Luckily, I extracted a lot of their money. The banks still haven’t figured it out.

Chase:
What the hell are you talking about?

Lo (dropping a Spider-Man dvd and picking it up): Sh*t!

Emma:
How’s he supposed to watch it, anyway?

Lo:
We got a DVD player running off-- Wait, What is it running off?

The line moves.

Chase:
Dang, That was quick.

They finally get to the registers, and they then leave.

Emma (looking at her receipt): Jesus Christ, 600$, All on 5 dollar slim jims and bags of chips?

Lo (bringing 8 carts of bags): What? You said anything, Plus, They were having a we didn’t know about till we got up there.

Emma:
You bought 90 percent of their food!

They put the bags in the van, Lo throws Dave his DVD, He instantly grabs it.

Dave:
I know what I’m doing tonight!

As They get in, Emma knocks on Lo’s window. Lo rolls down the window.

Lo:
What?

Emma:
Uhhh, I have no ride, and I need to go to Walmart--

Lo:
Ugh, Get in.

Emma opens the back, and sits next to Dave.

Dave (putting the disc in): Dang that’s a cool looking disc.

Emma:
You’re the first person I’ve ever heard call a disc cool looking. You’re such a nerd.

Dave:
What? You don’t like--

Lo (driving off): We like what we like, Emma.

Emma:
And I like you.

Dave:
That wasn’t subtle at all.

Emma:
I wasn’t talking to you!

Dave:
I know.

Lo (putting sunglasses on): But he is a nerd.

Devin:
MY sunglasses! Give me those!

Lo (putting on another pair of sunglasses, being sarcastic): Oh, I wonder who’s sunglasses these are!

Bill begins laughing, Chase is drinking his root beer, He spits out the drink he just drank out of laughter.

Devin:
Come on, Man! Give me the sunglasses!

Lo (steadily pulling out pairs and putting them on): Who’s that asking for a pair?

Dave (watching his movie): Dangit, Pete!

Bill:
Aye, Devin, I don’t think you’re getting your sunglasses.

Devin:
Lo, Please!

Lo (still at it): Huh? What are you wanting? Some gum? A copy of spider-man? A can of root beer--

Chase:
That’s my beer!

Emma:
Root beer you mean, By the way, Beer me, Lo.

Lo hands Emma a Root Beer with a pair of sunglasses on them, She puts the sunglasses on.

Emma:
Ah yes, I like these.

Devin:
Come on, guys!

Bill:
Dude, Beer me too!

We fade on a shot of them driving on the bridge, We cut to Emma in a walmart, She is looking at a Laptop, Lo walks up behind her, and says Boo! This scares her.

Lo:
Come on, A huge hacker getting scared by a dude who says Boo!

Emma:
I’m not sure if it is that or the fact that y'all just told me y’all are f***ing magicians with the wands being y’all’s blood.

Lo:
Ha, Magicians actually get paid for doing their tricks. We don’t.

Emma (walking towards another laptop at the end of the section): You’re cute.

Lo (walking towards her): I haven’t heard that one before.

Emma (Looking at him): What are you trying to say?

Lo:
A woman has never called me cute.

Emma:
Your mom never called you cute?

Lo:
Well, I don’t exactly know, She had me at twelve, so maybe her mom, who raised me until I was 7, when her mom died, called me cute.

Emma:
That’d be your grandma.

Lo:
Luckily for her, she inherited the house. She got a job, but it isn’t a very good one, She was a hostess at a club, Need I say more?

Emma:
Oh, OH. (she touches his cheek) You poor baby. What was her name?

Lo:
Nate, By the way, Yes, I thought it was a Male name too, but her mom was expecting a boy, so she kept the name anyway.

Emma:
Ah.

Emma and Lo walk to an employee, She asks him about a 900$ computer, We then cut back to the remaining squad in the van. Dave is asleep, still watching Spider-Man, Chase and Bill are trying to make root beer bubbles in their mouth, and Devin is playing some football game on his phone.

Devin (throwing his phone on the ground): F***! Strike one.

Bill (stopping the bubbles): I’ve never heard of a football game with “Strike One” before.

Chase (stopping also): Meh, I have.

Bill:
Probably because I mainly play Wrestling games, mainly UFC.

Chase:
I’ve never heard of someone play a UFC game, much less say it is their main.

Bill (laughing):
They’re the cheapest ones! What do you expect?! They’re the same game every time anyway, albeit a couple of different songs.

Devin:
A couple?

Lo and Emma open the back, and throw a boxed laptop in there, Dave instantly wakes up and grabs it.

Emma:
Nice catch, sleepyhead!

They get in, Lo drives off, and Emma pulls out her USB, and as she opens up the laptop, She puts it in.

Emma (asking Lo): What hacks do you guys want? Tracking people? News hacks--?

Lo:
A fire guy, see about them.

Emma (typing on the keyboard): Alright, Checking database.

Chase:
There's a f***ing database for this?

Emma:
IF you’re part of the dark web like I am, yes.

Bill:
Jesus, Lo, You’re f***ing insane! Recruiting a dark web--

Lo:
She’s perfectly fine.

Emma (touching the screen): What’d you say your mom’s name was, Lo?

Lo:
Nate, Why?

Emma:
Last Name?

As Lo says the Last name, Devin coughs, but Emma hears it.

Emma:
Oh my god, Lo, The fire guy is your mom.

Lo stops the van, and walks to her.

Lo:
No, No, No.

Emma:
Take a look.

Lo looks. He gasps, and begins shaking, he begins dripping.

Emma:
Jesus, Get away!

Lo (walking around): No, No, No--

Devin:
Jesus Christ, This is just getting funnier and funnier, huh?

Lo:
You think this is funny?! You son of a--

Chase:
Guys?

Devin:
It’s kinda amusing.

Emma:
Amusing?

Lo (punching Devin): I’ll kill you! I’ll f***ing kill you--!

Devin suddenly grows a brown shield from his arms, and begins smacking Lo with it.

Devin:
YOU WON’T! YOU--

Dave begins choking Devin, Emma grabs his hands.

Devin:
Alright! Alright!

Dave:
You don’t hit him, YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!

Dave lets go of him, Bill however, screams ENOUGH, and blows open the van doors by throwing his hands at them, Emma throws Devin out of the van, and Bill blows her out of the Van too due to the wind. She gets back in.

Chase:
What are you fools doing?!

Emma:
He’s insane--!

Lo (getting up):
Let him in.

Emma:
What?! He just hit you--!

Lo:
It doesn’t matter, All that matters is we get Nate.

Bill:
That’s your mom, What are you doing, calling her by her name?

Emma:
Why didn’t you do anything there?! Huh?!

Bill:
I thought you guys had it.

Emma (slapping him): Why’d you push me out?!

Bill:
I’ll swing you out of here, You better back the (Lo gets in his seat on his head falls on the horn, causing it to blare as Bill curses, Lo wakes up) up!

Emma (sitting down and getting back on her laptop): Alright! Okay!

Bill sits down as Rachel looks at them with wide eyes.

Lo:
Somebody grab the mother--

Devin:
I’m coming, I’m coming.

Devin gets in the van, He sits down, and Chase hands him a root beer.

Chase:
Here, Have a beer, you’re going to need it.
