Prisoners of Love/Transcript

	Fade into the basement lab of Fenton Works as Danny walks in, looking at a book he's holding. He stops and lowers the book to talk to his dad, Jack, who is working on the Specter Speeder in the middle of the lab.
Danny Fenton	Dad, can I ask you a question?
Jack Fenton	(Turns around from working in the cockpit) About the Specter Speeder? (Wraps arm around Danny) Sure!
	Jack shoves Danny into the cockpit of the Specter Speeder, then sits down next to him.
Jack	(Pointing at the dashboard.) This little baby has state-of-the-art spirit plane exploration technology. And it's got a (Presses button) super-sized cup holder.
	A large cup holder pops out of the dashboard. Cut to Maddie coming down the basement stairs. She stops near the end of the Specter Speeder.
Maddie Fenton	Jack, dear... (Jack steps out of the Specter Speeder to stand next to her.) It's getting awfully late. Is there something that you might have forgotten today?
Jack	(Looking clueless.) Uh...
Maddie	Something significant? Having to do with today's date of May 9th?
	A calendar on the wall is shown. There is a picture of Jack and Maddie on their wedding day pinned to May 9th, with arrows pointing to it and "Happy Anniversary" written above it.
Jack	(Looks around cluelessly while trying to remember.) 9th, 9th, 9th. 9th! 9th? Nope. Still not catching your drift. (Scratches head.)
Maddie	Our anniversary, dear? Oh well, I guess it just slipped your mind... (Shakes and suddenly bursts out in anger) for the eighteenth year in a row!
	Maddie slams her fist down on the end of the Specter Speeder, causing it to start up and shift into drive with a surprised Danny still inside.
Danny	Huh? (The Speeder begins to fly forward.) Whoa!
	The Specter Speeder flies towards the Fenton Portal, which opens up.
Danny	Whoa! (Closes eyes in anticipation of impact.)
	The Specter Speeder flies through the portal and into the Ghost Zone.
Danny	Whooooooooa!
	The Specter Speeder flies further into the Ghost Zone as Danny looks around worriedly. A few ghosts swirl past the cockpit of the Speeder. Danny turns to look back at them, and the Specter Speeder approaches a large white ghost, Walker, that towers menacingly over it. Danny turns and screams when he notices Walker, and brings the Speeder to a stop.
Walker	Trespassing in an unauthorized vehicle. (Points.) That's against the rules.
Danny	Uh, sorry. (Shakes.) I-I didn't know. I'm from...out of town.
Walker	Ignorance of the law is no excuse for breaking it, punk. I see your face around here again, (Points at Danny) you and I are gonna have a problem.
Danny	Y-Yes, sir. (Salutes and smiles nervously.)
	Danny shifts the Specter Speeder into reverse and it zooms backwards as Walker dissipates. The Specter Speeder flies all the way back and comes to a stop in its original spot in the basement lab, where Maddie is still yelling at Jack.
Maddie	Now get this into your head, Jack Fenton, there are some things more important than hunting ghosts! (Hits back end of Specter Speeder again.)
	Maddie walks away and a shaking, scared Danny gets out the Specter Speeder to stand next to Jack.
Jack	I know, I know. I'm just as freaked out by your mother's reaction as you are.
	Cut to theme song.
	Fade to the outside of Fenton Works, where a taxi pulls up to the curb, honking. Maddie walks out the front door towards it, pulling a suitcase behind her which Jack is hanging onto and dragging behind, trying to stop her to no avail.
Jack	Maddie, please, don't go! I just have a little more work to do on the Specter Speeder, and then I'm done. (Lets go of suitcase.)
Maddie	(In front of open taxi door.) We discussed this, Jack, remember? Visiting my sister? The divorce? (Gets in taxi and rolls down window.) There's a casserole in the freezer right next to the ectoplasmic residue samples!
	She rolls up the window and the taxi drives away. Jack stands up and watches her go.
Jack	Wait, wait, wait! (Starts running after taxi.) How will I know which is which?!
	Danny steps out of the front doorway and looks down the street.
Danny	Divorce? What?! (Looks at Jazz walking out door past him.) Jazz, did you just hear that?
Jazz Fenton	(Stops and turns back to look at Danny.) Hear what? Mom yelling at Dad? Relax. She'll get over it.
Danny	Yeah, but I-I have never heard her so mad.
Jazz	Of course she's mad. And if I'm right, Dad will once again cluelessly do nothing to apologize to her.
Jack	(Walks back up to Fenton Works.) That's where you're wrong, Jasmine. I have been a little preoccupied (Another taxi pulls up next to him) with ghosts lately. (Holding suitcase.) So, I'm traveling to your Aunt Alicia's in Spittoon, Arkansas to apologize, and give your mother (Opens taxi door) the greatest anniversary gift ever.
	Jack throws his suitcase into the taxi and it hits the driver in the face, causing him to take off down the street without Jack. Jack gasps and turns around to start running after the taxi.
Jack	Wish me luck! Oh, and call me if you see a ghost!
Danny	Jazz? Are Mom and Dad gonna split up?
Jazz	(Suddenly self-doubting:) I was...wrong?!
Danny	Jazz? (Pokes Jazz.) Jazz?!
Jazz	Wait. He's going to Arkansas? To apologize? I was wrong?!
	Fade to the Fentons' kitchen table, which is covered with dozens of Jazz's books, journals, and notes. She tosses aside one labelled, "Jack Fenton Observations." Jazz, looking frazzled, is shaking while holding a cup of coffee and looking at a stack of notes.
Jazz	(Talking quickly:) I don't understand. Every piece of evidence I have indicates Dad would never be self-aware enough to realize he made a mistake. (Puts down notes.) If I'm wrong about this, what else could I have been wrong about? (Hears rattling in living room. Yelling:) Danny, keep it down, would ya?!
	Cut to Danny Phantom vacuuming the wall in the living room.
Danny	Hey! I'm trying to make this place spotless so Mom will have a clean house to come home to.
	Jazz rushes into the living room to yell at him. Danny lands behind her and turns human, wearing a suspicious smile.
Jazz	Well, I need to concentrate! (Turns to Danny.) Ugh! I'll be at the library.
	Jazz walks out. Danny goes ghost again and phases down into the lab to find it a mess while floating midair.
Danny	Oh, my gosh. This place is a mess! (Floats down a bit.) If Mom comes back and sees the lab like this, she'll be even angrier at Dad.
	He sighs and points a finger to shoot a small blast of ectoplasm at a pile of trash, which knocks it into a trash can. Danny smiles and shoots another pile of trash into another trash can. He then starts to shoot blasts all over the lab to clean up and organize everything from beakers and boxes to chairs, books, and lab equipment. Near the end, he accidentally blasts a present into the open Fenton Portal, which causes him to gasp. The tag is knocked off the present and left behind on the ground. Danny picks it up and reads it.
Danny	"Let this gift repair the bridge to our love. Happy anniversary - Jack?!" (Stares at portal.) Oh, no.
	Fade to an airplane flying over a forest at night. Jack is sitting in it, along with several hillbilly farmers, one of which is holding a pig.
Jack	Um, excuse me. Will we be landing soon?
	The copilot, a female hillbilly with braids, looks back to answer him.
Flight attendant	Shoot, honey, there ain't no airport in Spittoon.
	She throws a parachute at Jack and pushes him out of the plane, then sticks her head out of the door.
Flight attendant	Thank y'all for flying Air Grits!
	Jack screams and then deploys his parachute. Cut to Alicia chopping firewood with an ax outside her cabin, with Maddie standing nearby watching her.
Alicia	I been out here for nearly a decade, Maddie, and as you can see, (Holds ax with a serious expression) I'm incredibly happy.
Maddie	I don't know, Alicia. Just because something works for you doesn't mean it works for everybody.
Alicia	You're an intelligent woman, Maddie - runs in the family. (Grabs a pile of firewood and lifts onto shoulders.) You gonna spend the best years of your life being ignored by some fool who believes in ghosts?
	The two women suddenly hear a thump and a scream. They run towards the noise and peer around the edge of Alicia's cabin to see what it is.
Maddie	Ghost!
	They see a white parachute flailing around hanging from a tree. Maddie runs forward, takes out a small weapon, and uses it to zap the parachute with a green beam. Jack falls out of the parachute onto the ground, landing on his head. Alicia runs forward to stand by Maddie.
Maddie	Jack?! (Runs forward to him.)
Alicia	(Sighs.) I'll get the antiseptic. (Walks away.)
	Fade to Danny, Sam, and Tucker walking down a hallway of Casper High.
Danny	You should've seen 'em fighting. My folks never fight. Well, they fight ghosts, but...that's different.
Sam Manson	(Puts hand on Danny's shoulder.) Danny, relax. Nobody gets divorced over not getting a gift.
Danny	But it's the thing my dad's gonna use to apologize! They're...right on the brink! I'm telling ya, anything could set them over the edge.
Tucker Foley	Danny, you're fine. I mean, it's not like your mom actually said the word "divorce." I mean, if she actually said the word, then you'd have to worry.
Danny	Said the word. (Stops walking.) Oh, man. She did! (Screaming:) She said the word!
Sam	Tucker, say something to calm him down!
Tucker	Well...uh...did she say it twice?
Danny	That settles it. I'm going into the Ghost Zone and get that present back.
	Fade to the front porch of Alicia's cabin, where Maddie is looking out at the woods, and Jack and Alicia are sitting on rocking chairs. Jack is drinking lemonade and Alicia is whittling a stick with a knife.
Alicia	Well...
Jack	Well what?
Alicia	You've been sitting here sipping lemonade for an hour! If you're gonna apologize to my sister, (Yelling:) I suggest you start apologizing!
Jack	(Looks at Maddie.) I... (Stomach rumbles, clutches it.) Hold that thought!
	Jack goes to open the front door with a panicked look.
Alicia	Ain't no bathroom in there.
	Jack starts to walk towards the edge of the porch with his arms crossed.
Alicia	Ain't no outhouse out there!
	Jack looks around with a worried grimace and spots some bushes out in the woods. He walks away towards them.
Maddie	You know, in his own way, he really is trying.
	Jack is seen walking behind the bushes.
Alicia	I don't understand why you think you need him, Maddie. Look at me! Been single ten years, and I'm a calm, sensible, independent woman and-- (Hears a twig snap. Looks out towards woods and waves stick around angrily.) Hey! Don't you whiz on that, Jack Fenton! That's rhubarb! (Returns to calm demeanor.) --I've never been happier.
	Fade to the Fenton Works lab, where Danny Phantom is standing in front of the portal with a camera-microphone headset on. Sam is standing next to him, and Tucker is off to the side.
Danny	(Sighs.) I so don't want to do this.
Sam	You get in, get the present, and get out. You'll be fine.
Tucker	(Holding his PDA.) Besides, with this mini webcam, I'll be with you (Shows self on webcam) every step of the way. But first... (Starts playing a video game on PDA.)
Danny	(To Sam:) You'll monitor the webcam?
Sam	I'll monitor the webcam.
	Danny flies through the portal into the Ghost Zone.
Sam	(On headset:) Wow! This place is amazing!
Danny	No, it's not. It's creepy. And it goes on forever. I don't even know where to start to look!
	Close up on Danny’s face. His eyes shift from upward to straight. Cut to a cluster of purple doors. Danny flies up toward one of them.
	Cut to inside. It’s blue. The door opens, revealing Danny. Zoom out. There is a small kid watching something on a rug, with a ghostly blue glow reflected off him. There are a couple blocks on the floor with the letters X and Y on their faces. Danny is standing in the doorway, far behind the boy. Danny closes the door. The boy’s eyes shift to Danny and back to whatever he was looking at.
Danny	Uh-, (raises arm) -Hi! (weak chuckle)
	Cut to another shot. We see the boy from behind with Danny’s boot in the foreground. The boy is watching static on TV, with three blocks around him. There are shadows cast on the boy and the blocks. There’s also a lamp on the side that is plugged in. Zoom in slowly.
	Cut to Danny.
Danny	Have-have you seen a (moves arms) present? (Eyes shift to the top-right corner) Um, about (moves arms again to show size) about yea big?
	Cut back the boy watching TV. It’s the same as before, and Danny’s boot is still in the foreground. The boy turns his head so we see it at a side view facing left. He is frowning now. Zoom in on the boy. The TV continues to play static as the boy turns his head the rest of the way to face Danny without turning his body. Zoom out to show a full shot of the boy in front of the TV. His body is still sitting in the same position, Indian-style, but his head is facing the back of the room. The boy snarls loudly, lifting his arms in downward-90 degree angles.
	Cut to a side view shot of the room. It’s big and empty, with the boy on one side and Danny on the other, with a huge space in between. There’s also a gap between Danny and the door.
Boy Ghost	Get- (The boy stands up and takes a fighting stance) –out– (The boy transforms into a purple, spiny beast with red eyes. His voice becomes more coarse) –of– (The boy grows larger, to match size with Danny) –my– (The boy is now the size of the room and is roaring in a deep voice. His arms are over Danny) –ROOM! (As the beast talks, Danny is standing his ground but his hair and face are blown back due to air resistance. The beast now puts down his arm and roars loudly)
	Zoom in on Danny. The beast’s leg is in the foreground. Danny is looking up with mouth gaping wide.
Danny	Sorry, (eyes get wider) Sorry! Wah!
	Danny rushes off in a puff of smoke.
	Cut to outside. There are many purple doors floating in a cluster. Danny comes out of one of them, shuts the door, and stands back-to-the-door in terror.
	Zoom in on Danny.
Danny	Oh, man.
	The door seems to drift downward.
Danny	Every one of these doors goes into another ghost’s lair?! I’m never gonna find that present. My folks are gonna get divorced and it’s gonna be all my fault.
	Zoom out. Danny is still with his back to the door, clutching it with his hands. The door is drifting downward. It lands in some dark forest with some tombstones. Danny jumps off the door before it reaches the ground. Zoom in on Danny’s face. He gasps quietly as his head turns to face the ground in front of him. Cut to the ground. There are a few tombstones in the dirt. They begin to rattle as some wailing is heard. Some glowing green skeletons pop out of the dirt. Zoom out to show Danny looking in fear at the skeletons, with more of them popping up out of the ground, some arms about to grab him.
	Danny flies away screaming, sliding over the door behind him, which tips over. Cut to an aerial view. The door sinks away as Danny is flying upward, looking at the ground, turning around and facing forward.
Sam	(on speaker) Relax, Danny.
	Danny starts to perspire.
Sam	(on speaker) We all just have to stay focused.
	Cut to Sam in the lab, holding the PDA.
Sam	Right, Tucker? (looks to the right) Tucker?
	Scene transitions to the Specter Speeder. The door is open overhead. Tucker is in the cockpit, crouched over, looking at the dashboard.
Tucker	I can’t believe Danny didn’t want to take—
	Zoom in on Tucker.
Tucker	—the Specter Speeder.
	He presses the dashboard, which beeps.
Tucker	This thing rocks!
	Tucker continues to press unseen buttons on the dashboard and play with the stick control. Cut to Sam, who walks up next to the domed windshield of the speeder holding the PDA.
Sam	He can cover more ground on his own.
	Cut to Tucker in the cockpit.
Tucker	But it’s got a cup holder!
	Tucker presses a button. Cut to the cup holder, it ejects with a whirring sound. Close up on Tucker’s face, with Sam’s face overhead.
Tucker	Hey, what’s this thing do?
	Cut to the dashboard. There is a red button inside a picture of a green, shapeless ghost. Tucker’s finger comes up to push it. Cut back to Tucker and Sam in the cockpit, Sam is over Tucker, not sitting down.
Computer Voice	Real World items detected.
	As this is said, a green scope in the shape of a semicircle fans out. Tucker jumps back in his seat, Sam is surprised. Zoom in to Tucker.
Tucker	Cool! It’s a scanner.
	Zoom out so Sam is in the shot.
Sam	Real World items?
	Cut back to the Ghost Zone. Danny is in the back of the green tunnel and drifts forward. The shot pans with him.
Tucker	(on speaker) Danny! I think we can guide you to the present.
	As Tucker says this, Danny drifts out of the shot. Cut to his face.
Sam	There’s a doorway coming up on your left. Take it.
	Cut to a door. It is far away and getting closer. Danny is seen from behind, flying through the door, which opens up.
Danny	Huh.
	As Danny says this, he surveys the new room he ended up in. The door he took is still open and behind him. The room is empty, save for a purple background. Zoom out to show Danny and the open door floating in mid-air along with numerous other objects surrounding them. They include a box, a toaster, briefcase, corded phone on hook, pencil, thermos, envelope, teddy bear, a bottle, a shirt, a single sock, another thermos, a basketball, a book, a suitcase, another envelope, lunchbox, another box, football, trumpet, a watch, a pen, a glass of liquid, a TV, another watch, another glass, another basketball, a washing machine, a lamp, a bottle of sports drink, and another box. Zoom in on Danny, who is floating with a watch, laptop, thermos, envelope, and a single sandal.
Danny	So *this* is where all that stuff ends up.
The Box Ghost	(offscreen) Yes!
	Cut to another shot. We see Danny from behind as The Box Ghost flies up from below. Floating in the scene is a horn, a box, and a sock.
The Box Ghost	It all ends up in the possession of (looks up and moves clenches his arms in emphasis) THE BOX GHOST!
	Cut to Danny. The Box Ghost is in the foreground seen from behind. Danny is floating at a distance. In the background is a rolling luggage bag, a basketball, and a thermos.
Danny	Ugh, what are *you* doing here?
	Cut to The Box Ghost.
The Box Ghost	I am The Box Ghost! (thrusts backwards and points forward) Where do you think we go (clenches pointing hand into fist) when you release us (moves arms to show a cylinder with his hands) from your round, cylindrical trap?
	Cut to Danny. A sock, a box, an envelope, and a cinder block are floating behind him.
Danny	You mean the Fenton Thermos?
	Cut to The Box Ghost. He is floating in a cartoony purple background, throwing his arms back and thrusting forward.
The Box Ghost	(waves his arms) I am the Box Ghost!
	Background fades back to a normal, shadowy purple.
The Box Ghost	And beware! For I am merely— (face thrusts forward for emphasis) —*ONE* of— (face changes back) your foes who reside in this realm! In fact, you might say, (comes closer) we’re a package deal!
	He bends backwards, puts his arms in the air, and laughs.
	Cut to Danny. There is an envelope, watch, pen, glass, purse, and a basketball floating alongside him.
Danny	Ugh. Look, I’m looking for something important, (lifts arms) I don’t have time for your box puns.
	Danny clenches his fists. When he finishes his speech, sirens wail. Danny turns to the right to find the source of the sound.
	Cut to The Box Ghost in the foreground. He turned his head so it faces to the right. Danny is floating in the background with a pen, a glass, a TV, a lava lamp, two envelopes, a washing machine, a sock, a football, a paper cup, and the door he came in.
The Box Ghost	Flee! Lest you be hermetically sealed (he turns his head to Danny) and shipped to your doooom!
	Close up on Danny’s face. Lasers are heard blasting. Cut to The Box Ghost, whose head is facing left, floating with three boxes, a envelope, a glass, a basketball, a sock, a belt, a book, and a handbag. A green laser comes off in the background as The Box Ghost floats/runs to the right, showing Danny from behind and a sandal, a computer, a thermos, a laptop, and some obscured objects in the distance. Danny turns as The Box Ghost runs a few more feet and is shot by a laser, being restrained by a green force field, which suddenly transforms from around the waist and arms to handcuffs. Zoom in on The Box Ghost, looking at his restrained hands. He turns around. Cut to Danny.
Danny	Hey, what’s going on?
	Some more lasers are heard. Cut to many green lasers zapping off in many directions. One of them hits Danny. He grunts in pain as the laser engulfs him and pushes him back. Cut to a blank purple background. Danny comes from the left and is thrown back with handcuffs on due to the force of the laser.
Walker	(offscreen, slowly floats onscreen) Possession of unauthorized recording equipment.
	Close up on Danny. The other ghost’s hand removes Danny’s webcam.
Walker	That’s against the rules.
	Cut to the ghost, he is holding the headset, putting it down.
Walker	Or at least it is *now*.
	Zoom out, revealing the ghost holding an open book, which is green. Close up on Danny’s face.
Danny	Wait! This is all a big misunderstanding!
	Zoom out. The ghost crouches over to talk in Danny’s face. Floating with them are a dress, a box, a sock, a pen, a basketball, and envelope, and a handbag.
Walker	There may be chaos everywhere in this Ghost Zone, but there’ll be order in *my* prison. (Close up on the ghost) You should’ve heeded my warning, punk. (Closer up on his face) Now you and I have a problem.
	Close up on Danny. Zoom in for a second. Cut to a van that reads “GZPD”. Zoom in on it. Cut to the inside of the van. Danny and TheBox Ghost both have handcuffs on and are sitting on the bench. There are ectoplasm stains on the floor and wall.
Danny	Great. My folks are splitting up, my sister’s a basket case, (turns to face the Box Ghost) and I’m going to ghost jail.
	Zoom in on Danny.
Danny	This may be the worst day of my life.
	Danny’s eyes shift to the left. Cut to the back door of the van. A police ghost holding a green pole opens the doors. Cut to a back view of the van. The police ghost is still floating there, Danny and The Box Ghost are looking forward, still sitting tied up in the van. Danny stands up. Zoom in on Danny and The Box Ghost. They are both gaping in awe. Cut to a view of a purple building. A police ghost is floating in front holding a green pole in both hands, there is a crowd of prisoners behind him. In the center is Skulker wearing a prisoners outfit, on the right is Desiree and to the left is Technus in his robot body. They are also wearing prisoner’s attire.
Skulker	Well, if it isn’t the young whelp (slowly zooms in on him) who helped us get locked up in this stinking place!
	Zoom in closer to Skulker.
Skulker	Welcome home.
	Cut to Danny.
Danny	This is the worst day of my life.
Box Ghost	[Off-screen.] I am the Box Ghost!
Danny	[Turning around, closing his eyes and yelling.] Will you stop that!
	Cut to Skulker, zooming in. He is cracking his knuckles.
	Fade to black.
	Fade in on an aerial view of the lab. The Specter Speeder is still there, and the portal is still open. Zoom in on the speeder.
Tucker	[Offscreen.] Danny? Danny! [Cut to a view of the Specter Speeder. Tucker is sitting down in the cockpit talking to his PDA, Sam is standing in the space behind him.] Talk to me!
	Sam runs from behind Tucker to the side of Tucker, grasping the seat next to him. Zoom in on Sam.
Sam	It’s no use. [Lifts arm.] He can’t hear us.
	Close up on Tucker and his PDA.
Tucker	Then we’ll just have to [Puts down PDA.] go in after him!
	Zoom out to show Tucker and Sam.
Sam	What are you, nuts?
Jazz	[Off-screen.] Danny! [Tucker turns to face the back.] Are you down there? [Tucker and Sam get into their seats and crouch on their knees, facing the back and listening to Jazz. Cut to outside the speeder. Pan right to the staircase. Jazz pokes her head out into the doorway] Sam! [Zoom in on Jazz.] Hello? Anyone? [Cut to the kitchen. Jazz is opening a coral colored book, looking in it.] I was hoping someone would go over [She steps to the left.] every excruciating detail of my personal diaries [Zoom in on Jazz.] to look for minuscule errors. [She looks to the left. Jazz puts down her book and walks to the left.]
	Close up on Sam’s waist. She is putting on her seat belt. Zoom out. Sam puts her hands on the back of her seat and faces Tucker, whose hands are on the controls.
Sam	You drive.
	Tucker thrusts the control forward. Cut to a back view of the Specter Speeder. It starts up and blasts off into the Fenton Portal. Pan to the staircase. Jazz is running downstairs smiling with her book in both hands, looking giddy. She stops as soon as she reaches the basement. Jazz looks around for signs of life.
Jazz	Hm. I thought I heard someone down here. [She puts her arm that isn't holding the book on her waist. Zoom in on her face.] Oh no. [She puts a finger to her chin, then lifts her arms and starts crying.] I was wrong again!
	Fade to a view of the Ghost Zone prison. Zoom in on it. Cut to a police ghost slapping his green pole on his hand. Zoom out to show the prison campus. Zoom in on one of the buildings.
Walker	[Off-screen.] Trespassing. Loitering. [Cut to a front view of Danny sitting in a chair, in prison attire and his hands in shackles. The ghost walks by.] Creating a disturbance. [Zoom out to show the ghost walking to the right, holding the open book in his hands, reading it. He stops and turns around, pointing a finger into the book.] And, possession of real-world contraband. [As he says this, Danny up as the present floats above his head from the left to the right. He tries to reach it, with sounds of struggling, but the shackles prevent him from doing so. Cut to Danny.]
Danny	Excuse me, sir, but-but-
	The ghost grabs him by the shirt.
Walker	Name’s Walker, son. Know it. Fear it. [Close up on Walker.] Obey it. I am your— [Cut to Walker, holding up Danny by his shirt so the skin under is showing.] —judge, [Gets closer.] executioner, [Close up on Walker.] jury,— [Close up on Danny.] —executioner, jailer,— [Cut to Danny and Walker. Danny is seen from behind.] —and, if necessary, [Lowers Danny.] your executioner.
	Cut to Danny’s face.
Danny	Uh, you said “executioner” three times.
	Zoom out to show Walker holding Danny in one hand and his book in the other. The present is floating behind him.
Walker	[Lets Danny drop to his seat and turns to the front.] I like that part of the job.
	Cut to Danny. He looks to the right and smiles. Cut to the present. It’s floating and glowing, with the tag on. Zoom out to show it behind Walker, who is reading the book.
Danny	[Turns to Walker.] Well, you see, uh, Mr. Walker, uh, the truth is— [He grabs his chair.] —I-I’m actually trying [Danny walks off with the chair.] to remove— [Zoom out to show Danny walking with his chair to get closer to the present, Walker is turned the other way on the other side.] —the contraband. So, um, if I could just [Zoom in on Danny.] grab it and go, [Chuckles nervously and stands up to grab the present.] I’ll promise I’ll—
	Walker runs over from the side and pushes Danny’s seat down with his leg. The chair falls to the floor. Walker sets his hand on it.
Walker	I’d like to let you go, son,— [Zoom in on Danny, Walker crouches down next to him.] —but I can’t. [Walker stands upright, turning around to look in the book again.] That’d be against the rules. [Cut to another shot. Danny is seen from side view in the foreground as Walker looks in the rule book.] But seeing how this— [Turns to Danny.] —is a first offense— [Cut to Walker from front view, he is walking forward. Danny is sitting behind him.] —I’m willing to be lenient. [He closes the book. Cut to Walker from behind. He turns around and points his finger at Danny, shouting loudly. Shouting.] 1,000 years!
	Cut to Danny. The shot rotates and zooms in on his shocked face.
	Fade to Spittoon. Jack is seen from behind running on a path past a stump. Cut to a place that reads “General Store”. There is a red truck parked next to it and some men are on the porch. Cut to a yellow spittoon. A brown drop of spittle clangs on the spittoon, rattling it. Cut to a red-bearded man with a blue bandanna sitting on the bench. Zoom out to show two other men, the one to his right, Jasper, is wearing a white T-shirt and jeans, sitting on the bench. The man on the right has a black mullet and a red, checkered shirt, leaning on the wall. The man to the right spits, which hits the spittoon with a clang. Cut to a part of the porch with a round thing with an arrow pointing up on it in the doorway. Jack walks up.
Jack	Excuse me,— [Zoom out to show Jack and the men. Jack lowers his arms.] —Do you gentlemen have a bathroom? [Jack lifts his arms in question. Cut to the men. They look in confusion at Jack, continuing to collect spit in their mouths. Cut to Jack.] Outhouse? [Cut to the men, again. They look in confusion at Jack, continuing to collect spit in their mouths, again. Cut to Jack, again. Pointing out his finger and pointing downward, with slight hillbilly accent.] Place I can whiz?
Jasper	Can’t you use Alicia’s rhubarb? [He points and spits with a clang.]
	Pan left to Leaning Man, who is facing right. The man in the blue bandanna faces the other side to look at the leaning man.
Leaning Man	Are you nuts? [He lifts his hand.] In the mood she’s in?! [Moves hand to waist.] Didn’t you hear about the dee-vorce? [Spits with a clang, turns to the left.]

	Maddie gives the box to Jack, as he crouches down to let Maddie rip it up. The Box Ghost flies out of it as the background changes to a teal action background.
The Box Ghost	I am [Waves his hands all spooky.] The Box Ghost!
	Cut to Danny and Jasmine. Jasmine is holding a coral colored book in her hands, reading it.
Danny	They weren’t ever gonna [Holds his arm out.] get a divorce!
	Zoom in on Danny.
Danny	It was all just a huge misunderstanding.
	Cut to Jasmine. She is looking into a coral colored book.
Jazz	But, Dad doesn’t [Turns to face Danny, then turns back to her book.] apologize! Dad doesn’t understand what a goof he can be!
	Zoom out to show Jasmine and Danny. Jasmine’s head is turned to face Danny, her chin is up, and her eyes are closed.
Jazz	These are constants!
	Pan left to show The Box Ghost. Danny and Jasmine turn around to face him.
The Box Ghost	[Leans over and raises arms.] Beware! [He flies off. Maddie and Jack chase him.]
Jack and Maddie	Ghooost!
	Cut to Jazz.
Jazz	Ah, [Closes book.] sweet normalcy. [Turns to face left.] I’ll take being [She lift a finger and puts it down.] right and embarrassed over wrong every time.
	Zoom out to show her and Danny. Jasmine is facing Danny.
Jazz	[Holds up a pie, Danny reaches out for it.] Want some rhubarb pie?
Danny	Love some.
	The bandanna man’s head pokes in from the left. Pan left to show him raising his finger. Danny and Jasmine turn around to face him.
Bandanna Man	I’d stay away from that [Close up on his face.] if I was you.
	He spits with a clang. Then he smiles and winks. The screen closes in a black circle.
