Ben:
Ugh, When can we start trials?

Jay:
There’s a rat around here.

We cut to them in a lab. Field puts the rat in the glass container.

Rat:
Ehhh! Ehh--

Jay:
Shut up!

Ben (grabbing the injection): So, You want me to put the water in it--

Jay:
You did, Right?

Ben:
Yeah.

Field:
Thank god.

Ben:
That’s not a good idea to put water in it--

Jay:
Shut up, You wouldn’t know.

Field (grabbing the injection from Ben): If this doesn’t work, Jay, It is on you.

Field injects the Rat with it. The rat begins to shake, it begins throwing up water, It then begins throws up so much water it begins to flood the whole room.

Ben:
What the--?!

Jay:
It worked! It f***ing worked! OH my god--

The rat suddenly turns into water, and it jumps on Field, biting him.

Field:
Get off of me! Get off-

Ben grabs the Rat, and it begins spraying him. Jay bumps into a radio, and it plays some rock song.

Ben:
I hate this song! I hate this--

Jay grabs an axe from the emergency container.

Jay (swinging the axe towards them to the rat): Come here!

The rat jumps on the axe.

Jay (screaming):
MOTHER OF GOD--

The rat then suddenly becomes huge, and bites Jay’s head.

Field:
OH MY GOD! OH MY--

Ben tries attempt to break open a window with his elbow, but the rat bites him before they can, Field then grabs the axe, and breaks the window open with it. He gets out.

Field (pulling out the injections): Well, Time for human trials.

We cut to Field walking in a water plant.

Arnold (seeing him pass by security): Wait! You didn’t--

Field injects him.

Field (seeing him fall): It only had tabasco in it!

Field walks off, He goes to the section where the water is filtered, He injects all of the injections he has into it.

Field (seeing an officer running towards him): What?! It is only animal blood, candle wax, water, urine and--

Kevin:
What the hell?

Field:
May I test on you--?

Kevin:
Hell no! What the f***?!

Field goes to inject him, but him and Kevin engage in a fight.

Kevin:
Motherf***er! Are you trying to kill the state?!

Field (almost about to inject him in the neck): If that’s what it takes, I will!

Kevin (narrowly missing the shot by a centimeter): Motherf***er! You’re going to have to try a lot f***ing harder than that!

We then cut to Lo and Dave looking in a blockbuster store.

Lo (grabbing some superhero movie and showing Dave): This one’s really good.

Dave (grabbing another one in the same franchise): I liked this one better myself.

Lo (checking the case of the one he was looking at and looking up at the one Dave is showing him): I didn’t like that one.

Dave:
You didn’t? This one is my favorite, I may rent it, This is the 4K, and my 4K blu-ray is scratched.

Lo:
How do you scratch a blu-ray?

Dave:
I honestly don’t know.

Lo (putting the DVD he was looking at up): Well, Chances are, If yours is scratched, that one is most likely scratched too.

Dave (holding on to the blu-ray): Well, I’ll take the chance.

Dave walks over to a water fountain, and when he turns it on and drinks out of it, It is gray.

Lo (noticing the water and walking to it): Woah, Check it out!

Dave (not noticing it and turning the water fountain off): What?

Lo (turning the water fountain Dave was drinking out of on): Its gray!

Dave:
What the?

Dave puts his finger in it, and then instantly pulls his finger out.

Dave:
It is burning hot! But when I drank it, It was freezing cold, That was the coldest drink I’ve ever drank, Now, It is the hottest thing I’ve ever touched.

Lo (going to touch it): It can’t be.

Lo does the same thing Dave did.

Lo:
Jesus Christ, You’re not lying.

Dave:
I don’t have a reason to.

Lo (checking his watch): F***, They close right now.

Dave:
What?

Lo:
They’re closing early today for some reason.

Dave:
Dammit.

Lo:
Bring the DVD to the car once you rent it, We’re going down to the bar, I need a f***ing drink.

We cut to Lo and Dave (Dave is stumbling) walking in a bar, Some weird techno is playing as they seat themselves on the barstools.

Blake (a transgender who is a male): How you guys doing?

Dave (nervous):
Hello.

Lo:
I want a f***ing beer.

Blake:
Okay, Honey, Blonde. What do you want.

Dave:
Uhhhhhh, Diet Cola.

Blake:
You mean Diet Coke?

Dave:
With some Rum, and make it Vanilla Coke.

Lo:
They sell that here?

Blake:
Yes Sir, We do.

Dave:
I’ll take some Rum with Coke.

Blake:
Vanilla?

Dave:
Yes Mam.

Blake (walking off to the drink machines): Alright then.

A girl named Emma seats next to Lo.

Emma:
Hello.

Lo (looking over at her): Hi.

Emma:
How ya doing?

Lo (grabbing the Beer Blake places for him): Just another day in hell!

Emma:
You think you have it bad?

Lo (placing down his empty cup of beer): I don’t know, I’m out of f***ing beer, My mom’s f***ing crazy, and my girlfriend’s f***ing gone!

Emma (chuckling): That ain’t the first time you told a chick like me that is it?

Lo (grabbing the cup of beer Blake gave a refill into and drinking the whole thing): I don’t know, I don’t see a chick, I see big titties.

Emma (Laughing):
You’re just too cute, aren't you?

We move to Dave, talking to Blake, drinking rum as she bites on her Crunch bar.

Dave:
Your favorite candy bar is a crunch bar?

Blake:
Everytime I made my old man his beer, He’d give me a crunch bar.

Dave:
You had an old man? Sh*t, Mine left on the spot. Mom did too, I’m f***ing adopted.

Blake (chuckling): Really?

Dave:
Yeah, Really. What about you?

Blake:
What about me?

Dave:
Your parents love you?

Blake (laughing): Sh*t, Love? The hell is that? My parents were homophobic, so when they found out, They f***ing hated me.

Dave:
You never felt love?

Blake:
F*** that sh*t, I’ve been around the block, motherfuckers cheating over and over. Men are pigs sometimes--

Dave:
Woah, Woah, Woah, I thought you were gay.

Blake (whispering to him): If I tell you something, You promise not to tell anyone else.

Dave:
I guess.

Blake:
I’m transgender.

Dave spits his rum in her face, Emma and Lo, talking, notice it.

Blake:
What the hell, Dave?!

Emma:
Yo, Waitress, Where’s my f***ing tea?

Blake (looking over at her): We don’t sell, F***ING, TEA.

Ian (walking up to Blake): What the hell is going on here?

Blake:
Nothing. Dave was just having a moment.

Dave (gulping):
I threw up in my mouth.

Ian:
The hell?

Blake:
It’s alright.

Lo:
Dave, The hell is going on?

Dave suddenly falls over.

Lo:
DAVE!

We cut back to Nate in an electric chair in some bleak and creaky house, A man named Scott walks up to her, and turns the machine on.

Nate:
You got me while I was asleep. You think it’ll be easy next time?

Scott (turning on the electric chair): You’re not human.

Nate (shaking):
Not anymore.

Scott:
You’re a unique specimen. You have powers unlike anything I’ve ever seen. How…. How did you get this?

Nate (looking at his very, very red hands): They gave me a flu shot.

Scott:
Well, They gave you a shot alright.

Scott begins shocking her.

Nate:
YOU THINK YOU CAN CONTAIN ME?!

Scott (looking at her): I already have.
