EXT-SUBURBIA-MORNING

Suburban-Street.jpg

The morning dew sparkles in the morning light. Birds chirping and dogs barking can be heard as a garbage truck appears at the end of the street. As it nears a person yelling at the dogs to shut up can be heard. We now see the truck come to a stop at its next house. BUCK BUNKUER (@JardyB10) a mid-20’s pale white male gets off the truck and grabs a garbage can as he walks to the back of the truck.

 

Buck

One of these fucking days

 

FRE ELMO (@frescoelmo) grabs another can and follows Buck

 

Fre

What? You will what? Become a secret agent?

 

Buck

Shut up! And yes I will. They just don’t like how I am a shoot first ask questions last type guy

 

Fre

And why would they? If you want answers you can’t kill the guy you are about to question. That makes no sense

 

Buck

That’s what they said

 

Fre

I would be shocked if they didn’t say that

 

Buck

My theory is kill one terrorist in front of his buddies. Then threaten to keep killing one at a time till one talks. You will eventually find that shitty terrorist that does not want to die and get his six or however many virgins in heaven

 

Fre

That is the dumbest thing I have heard you say all day and that’s saying a lot

 

Buck

And I thought I told you to shut up

 

Buck tosses the garbage can into the back of the truck instead of emptying it. He then presses the button to compact the garbage

 

INT-WAREHOUSE-MORNING

warehouse.jpg

A typical warehouse in the morning. Workers standing around drinking coffee while standing in a circle talking. The sound of a truck reversing can be heard as the gate to the loading dock opens. ALEC DWYER (@ADwyer87) a French looking fuck in his mid-20’S appears from the office area and looks at the workers.

 

Alec

Hey! Get to fucking work you bunch of lazy fucks

 

Alec walks to the truck and opens the gate. Crates of things can be seen as the workers start grabbing tongue dollies, pump trucks and a fork lift. ANGELO MOLHOLT (@Molholt) a mid-20’s male gets out of the driver seat of the truck and walks to Alec.

 

Angelo

Are we still on schedule?

 

Alec glares and Angelo

 

Alec

I don’t take orders from you

 

Angelo

It wasn’t an order, it was a question

 

Alec

Well… of course we are on schedule. I run a tight ship here

 

Angelo

Good, because he arrives he expects everything to be ready

 

Alec

I know

 

INT-ATU-MORNING

24-preview-offices.png

PHIL JEESTER (@Phil) a late-20’s ATU agent is sitting at his desk and annoyingly sipping his coffee and saying “mmmmm” after each sip. This annoys his brother David JEESTER (@Knight) who is also a late-20’s ATU agent.

 

David

Can you stop that?

 

Phil looks up from his coffee

 

Phil

What?

 

David

Saying mmmmm with every sip

 

Phil

I can’t

 

David

Why not?

 

Phil

It’s coffee straight from Columbia. It’s…

 

Phil does the Tony Montana voice

 

Phil

Very addicting

 

Phil snaps his fingers and a person appears who hands David a coffee. David looks at the man then at Phil before shrugging his shoulders and taking a sip. As he raises his head he cannot help but say “mmmmm”

 

David

That is good coffee

 

The guy that people call “mail dude” nears their desks and places a box on it

 

Mail Dude

Here you go, you got some type of ticking thing or something

 

David looks at Phil then at the mail dude. Phil looks at David then the box

 

Phil

Ok… back away slowly

 

David slowly gets up slowly but then shoves Mail Dude out of his way as he runs off

 

Phil

I SAID SLOWLY!

 

Mail dude slowly gets up and looks at Phil

 

Mail Dude

Is… that a… bbbbbb…omb?

 

kaboom.png

 

Phil looks at him and doesn’t say anything he just nods as he waves at him to get out of there. Phil reaches into his desk and grabs a knife. He gently cuts an opening into the box and places what appears to be a card inside of it. Phil now gets up calmly and walks away from his desk. He makes sure no one is around before he grabs his phone and opens an app that is literally called “Bomb disposal” He then presses the only button the screen that reads “kaboom” the box explodes in a very small explosion almost like there was no bomb in it. A note that is on fire slowly falls to the floor in front of Phil which reads “Happy birthday, I saw this cuckoo clock in Mozambique and thought of you” Phil stands there with a look of displeasure as David comes up to him and reads the note

 

David

It’s your birthday? Happy birthday bro

 

Phil rolls his eyes

 

Phil

You’re my brother you should know it’s my birthday

 

David

Oh yeah…

 

Awkward silence fills the room

 

David

Uh…What was that?

 

Phil

What?

 

David

You know… that

 

Phil

The explosion?

 

David

Yeah! That

 

Phil

I thought it was a bomb so I disposed of it

 

David

Was it?

 

Phil

No

 

All of a sudden someone can be heard yelling “BOMB”

 

Phil

No it’s not

 

Person

No this one’s real. Take a look

 

th?id=OIP.M8109ad149d741dc9e5a14dd43ecc5

The person throws the bomb threw the air and in slow motion we see what appears to be dynamite with a timer that reads twenty seconds on it flying through the air. Phil catches it and looks down. He tosses it to David

 

David

What are you doing? I don’t want it

 

David tosses it back to Phil who tosses it back to him. They literally toss it back and forth wasting precious seconds.

 

INT-WAREHOUSE-MORNING

Alec is sitting in his office as he gets a text on his phone which reads “Distraction is a go”

 

INT-GARBAGE TRUCK-MORNING

Buck is driving the garbage truck weaving in and out of traffic like it was a race car

 

Fre

Where are you in such a hurry to?

 

Buck

I’m off the clock in ten minutes and I don’t want to be in this stinky shitty truck when that happens. I’m going to the range to get more time with the guns. I have a tendency to hit things I shouldn’t

 

Fre

Like what?

 

Buck

Innocent people

 

Fre

Do you at least shoot the bad guys?

 

Buck

Sometimes

 

A loud explosion can be heard nearby. Without looking or even blinking Buck does a U-turn smashing through cars that are in his way. Fre holds on for dear life

 

Buck

That came from ATU. We need to get there

 

Fre looks on in shock as he looks in the rear-view mirror at the mess of cars that Buck is leaving behind.

 

Fre

We? No, no, no let me out

 

Buck

Have no time. They need me

 

Fre

You are not an agent get that through your fucked up head

 

Buck

If you want out then get out but I am not stopping

 

Fre

No! You will stop

 

Buck

I stop for no one. Tuck and roll buddy tuck and roll

 

Buck plows through a red light

 

INT-WAREHOUSE-MORNING

Alec and Angelo are now toasting to something in the warehouse as workers celebrate

 

Alec

To a day that this country will never forget

 

Angelo

They will never see it coming, they will be too busy at ATU HQ

 

Alec

Well that’s an obvious statement I think everyone here knows why they won’t see it coming

 

Angelo

You know that you can be an ass at times right?

 

Alec

It’s the French Canadian in me

 

INT-ATU-MORNING

The ATU office is totally decimated by the explosion. Bodies are laying everywhere. The building is structurally not sound. Phil, David and Mail dude push their way out of a fallen wall without even a scratch. Phil looks around to see no one else survived the explosion that he can see.

 

Phil

Good thing we tossed that the other way with seconds left

 

David

I’d say. If we didn’t that would have really blown

 

David nudges Mail Dude

 

David

Get it? Blown it? Eh? Eh?

 

Mail Dude shrugs then tries to say something but no sounds come out

 

Phil

I think he lost his voice

 

David

I guess the cat… bomb got his tongue

 

Phil and David high five

 

Phil

Good one

 

Just then FRANK ALMEDIA (@Frank) an early 30’s Italian looking guy rushes in. He looks around in shock and horror

 

Frank

What in the holy hell happened?

 

Phil

Bomb

 

Frank

Bomb? How? Why? You couldn’t defuse it? You two are the bomb experts

 

Phil

I tossed it to him

 

David

I tossed it back

 

Phil

And I tossed it back 

 

David

And I tossed it back 

 

Phil

And I tossed it back 

 

Frank stops them

 

Frank

Okay… okay I get it! I get it

 

Phil

What do we do now?

 

Frank

Did Higgins make it?

 

They look up where Higgin’s office use to be but it’s not there anymore

 

Phil

Doubt it

 

David

Looks like he went in a blaze of glory

 

Phil and David give each other props

 

Phil

Stellar one

 

David

As usual

 

Phil

I would have gone with Higgins went up in smoke

 

David looks at Phil stone faced

 

David

That’s not that great

 

A loud crash breaks up the conversation, the Garbage truck smashes through a few remaining walls and comes to a stop inches from Phil, David and Frank. Buck jumps out of the truck and salutes them

 

Buck

Secret Agent Buck Bunkuer reporting for duty

 

Frank looks at him then at David and Phil who carry on making explosion jokes then shrugs

 

Frank

Sure why not

 

Buck

I was hoping you would say that. What should I do?

 

Frank

I don’t know

 

Buck

When will you know?

 

Frank doesn’t know how to respond

 

Buck

Five?... ten? Maybe fifteen minutes? I get the feeling we should get on this so can make this exciting and fun. Not to mention get those terrorist scum

 

Frank

Now, now, now we don’t know if it was terrorist

 

Buck

Who is sends a bomb to the anit terrorist unit?

 

Frank thinks as the episode fades to black
