EXT. OUTSIDE UNIVERSITY BAR - NIGHT
Rudi Valentino leaves the student bar with a female friend of his named Trudy
RUDI VALENTINO: Say Trudy would you like to meet again some time.
TRUDY: Trudy and Rudi. It has a nice ring to it.
Suddenly Chuck Chalmers and two of this friend climb out from behind some bushes.
CHUCK CHALMERS: Well if it isn’t Trudy and Rudi. I think it’s time that we taught these swots a lesson.
Chuck starts to push Rudi while Trudy attempts to flee but is held by one of Chucks friends
CHUCK CHALMERS: What are you going to do Valentino? Call mommy and daddy?
Suddenly Chuck is punched in the nose
CHUCK CHALMERS: I think my nose is broken
One of Chucks friends appears to be kicked in the balls. Trudy elbows her captor in the head. All three are in pain.
A loud voice calls out.
LOUD VOICE: This is god. If you ever lay a hand on these kids again I will see to it that you burn in hell.
The three of them all limp away
LOUD VOICE: And remember, being god. I know all your dirty little secrets. If you don’t behave yourselves I will return.
A few seconds pass.
TRUDY: What was that?
RUDI VALENTINO: All I know is that it’s someone or something that you always want to be there for you.

INT. HOSPITAL ROOM - DAY
Alexander’s Dad is seriously ill in hospital. He has a number of tubes in him.
Alexander turns to a nurse.
ALEXANDER HOPSCOP: Will he be alright?
NURSE: He’ been like that for months. I don’t think he’ll ever recover. You’re his first visitor. Where were you when he needed you?
ALEXANDER HOPSCOP: I’m sorry. I’m not good at this. I don’t know what to do.
NURSE: Talk to him
ALEXANDER HOPSCOP: Dad, I’m sorry. I’m sorry that you got beaten up on account of me and I’m sorry I treated you badly and ran out on you like I did. You were always there for me even if I wasn’t willing to listen to you. It would be so much easier if Mom was here. She would know what to do.
Suddenly Carlton appears to make a rapid recovery. His eyes open
CARLTON HOPSCOP: I never did tell you about my powers of regeneration. I just never wanted to use them until you came back. It’ nice to feel wanted
ALEXANDER HOPSCOP: Dad, I wish I could make it up to you
CARLTON HOPSCOP: Son, we have the rest of our lives.
EXT. CLIMATE CHANGE CONFERENCE PODIUM - DAY
President Bungle takes to the podium
PRESIDENT BUNGLE: Today is a momentous day. We have secured the safety of our planet for generations. This would not all have been possible without me. Quite frankly, before I arrived here this was a bad deal, but now I have made several amendments to it to secure our future and the future of Bungleonians everywhere. I have inserted two important clauses. One is to secure the future of the burger. Without burgers I would not be able to survive quite frankly and so I have inserted this clause to protect our heritage. Second, I have included a clause recognising the importance of the golf course. Golf courses are green and they absorb carbon monoxide and spread oxygen into the air. Golf courses are perhaps the most beautiful creation with lush green fairways and smooth putting greens. I once made love on a golf course. She was a Swedish model named Lola....
INT. CHILDRENS HOSPITAL - DAY
Fallulah visits Cedric the eleven year old boy with Leukaemia.
FALLULAH: Hi Cedric. How are you doing?
CEDRIC: Hi. Do I know you?
FALLULAH: Lets just say that I know of you. Your a hero of mine.
CEDRIC: I don’t know if I’m going to make it
FALLULAH: Many soldiers go to war Cedric and it’s largely down to luck which ones pull through. The most important thing is that you keep fighting and stay positive. You’ve got heart and that counts for a lot in anyones book
CEDRIC: My parents are worried. They think I’m going to die. I can tell.
FALLULAH: You can be their rock. Think of all the things you can do if you beat this thing. You can go to football stadiums and watch matches. You can watch your favorite movies again and again. There must be something you look forward to that makes you want to survive.
CEDRIC: What did you say your name was again?
FALLULAH: Fallulah
CEDRIC: Fallulah, I think we’re going to be best friends
FALLULAH: You can count on it.
Henry walks into the room
FALLULAH: Cedric, this is Henry, a good friend of mine. He’s also a magician.
CEDRIC: Can you do a trick for me?
HENRY CARTHRIGHT III: Oh well, now that you’ve twisted my arm, why not.
Henry produces a deck of cards and starts shuffling them in a fancy manner
HENRY CARTHRIGHT III : Ok, Cedric. Think of your favorite card. Picture it in your mind.
Henry splits the deck
HENRY CARTHRIGHT III: Ok, Henry, pick a card from the top.
Cedric picks the card and looks at it
HENRY CARTHRIGHT III: Was that it?
CEDRIC: No
HENRY CARTHRIGHT III: Ok then
Henry shuffles the pack once more.
HENRY CARTHRIGHT III: Pick another one
Cedric picks the card and looks at it
CEDRIC: That’s not it either
Henry shuffles the pack once more.
HENRY CARTHRIGHT III: Ok Cedric, this is the last time. What was your card?
CEDRIC: The Jack of Clubs and this isn’t it either. Henry, you seem like a really nice guy but you’re a lousy magician
FALLULAH: I’ve told him many times myself Cedric, it’s his heart I love most whether or not I was there to witness his best trick.
HENRY CARTHRIGHT III: Fallulah, I know a place where we can go and share an orange juice for five bungles and a paper clip
FALLULAH: That’s the most romantic thing anyone has said to me in my entire life. I’ll see you around Cedric
CEDRIC: I’ll look forward to it
.
Henry and Fallulah turn to leave the room
HENRY CARTHRIGHT III: Oh, Cedric. Look under your pillow
Cedric looks under his pillow finds a card, looks at it and smiles.
