Monkey Airplane Soldier
Be kind, please rewind.
SCENE 7!!!
As usual, I don't know if it's good or not, so please tell me!
I MADE SOME CHANGES TO THE END!
SCENE 7:
Kids in chamber, empty plates on the floor, Kate sitting on a chair combing through Lily’s hair and Raven holding one of the plates.
Raven: [picks up plate] How loud d’you think it’d be if I smashed this?
Kate: [weirded out] I don’t know…..why, are you gonna try and form a band? There’re only so many plates you can crash…
Raven: [mildly exasperated sigh] No…[glances at Kate] I was actually, uh….I want to see if I can make a knife out of it.
Kate: Roger!
Raven: RAVEN says that he thinks it’s time to see if we can get out.
Kate: Yeah? Well KATE says that you’re nuts! [sigh] It’s just too dangerous, and there’s no point anyway. We can’t get past that forcefield thing.
Raven: Yeah, yeah….forcefield, I know. But didn’t Queen Elizabeth say earlier that if the portal between worlds is left up, than the portal is open? Meaning, we can get through?
Lily: Yeah, but Charlie probably keeps it shut. And that lady probably does too.
Kate: Yeah, really…
Raven: Well, okay, but eventually they’re gonna get caught off their guard…and I say, sooner than later! Next time Charles comes-
Lily: Charlie. I like Charlie better.
Raven: um. Well, okay, YOU can call him that…anyway, next time he comes in here, I’m gonna like…distract him or something.
Kate: Raven, you’ve got to stop being so rash! You have to think these things through! We don’t even know where we’d end up if we got through, and honestly, chances are Charles-
Lily: Charlie.
Kate: Fine! Chances are, uh, Charlie, isn’t gonna mess up and leave it open!
Raven: If I fluster him enough he will. You saw him before. He gets all muddled and then, well…[smiles]anything can happen.
Kate: No.
Raven: Yes.
Kate: NO.
Raven: YES.
Kate: No way!
Raven: Yes way!
[pause where Raven and Kate glare at each other]
Lily: I want some grapes.
[Pause where Kate and Raven stop and look confused]
Kate: You are SO random sometimes.
Lily: Well, actually, I don’t want grapes. It’s Chris who wants them. She showed up.
Raven: Oh no….not Chris again. [puts head in hands and groans]
Kate: Honey, Chris doesn’t exist…
Lily: What’re you talking about? Stop it, you’re gonna hurt her feelings!
Kate: [sigh] Okay. Sorry, Chrysanthemum…[glances at a random spot in the air]
Lily: Why’re you looking at her neck? I think she feels self-conscious….
Kate: I don’t know where to look!
Lily: Oh, dear, you’re just hopeless….[turns to her side] Don’t worry, Chrissy, I can see you, I know you’re here. So…looks like we’ve been kidnapped! Where’d you go?
Raven: Kate, you’ve GOT to put a stop to this….she’s NINE already, this is getting ridiculous…it’s not normal to have an imaginary friend for 6 years!
Kate: I don’t know what to do!
Lily: [in background has been talking] You went to find help? How sweet! [pause] I’m sorry no one listened….adults are so stupid sometimes. I know. Yup, exactly! [turns toward Raven and Kate] SEE? How could she POSSIBLY not exist? She understands me so well….
Kate: Um….
[Charles walks in, carrying a martini and a plate of food]
Charles: Sorry I was late! It was fashion night-*ahem* excuse me, I had to go to, uh, foosyball practice.
Raven: You mean FOOSBALL practice? Ha, as if! You were probably strutting your stuff in a Victoria’s secret bra…
Charles: No, actually it was from Lord and Taylor, thank you very much.
Kate: Oh my GOD…my future husband is GAY!
Charles: For the LAST time! I am not gay…
Lily: Oh, Charlie, have you met Chrysanthemum?
Charles: Heh?
Lily: Chrysanthemum, come on, don’t be shy. He’s nice. He’s my friend Charlie. He wears pretty purple dresses sometimes!
Charles: I do not-
Lily: Chrissy says hi.
Charles: Who is Chrissy?
Kate: Her imaginary strawberry friend….thing….
Charles: uh….oh. [turns to Lily, squats down and starts talking to the air next to her] Yes, of course, it’s lovely to meet you, Chrysanthemum.
Lily: She says to call her-
Charles: Oh, why certainly, of course I’ll call you Chrissy…
Lily: [eyes get big] YOU CAN SEE HER! YOU CAN SEE HER! [turns to Kate and Raven] See, I TOLD you she was real!
Charles: Why of course she’s real! How could she possibly not be? You don’t mean to tell me these dimwits can’t see her?! [playing along, smiling]
Raven: Yeah, well, these particular dimwits would like to mention that you look like a female fashion designer.
Kate: [nods] Sadly, it’s true.
Lily: that’s okay, Charlie. Chris and I think you look pretty.
Charles: [swallows] Yes, well, thank you dear…
Raven: [glances meaningfully at Katie, then starts imitating a british accent] Oh, mummy, oh, dearie me, they think I’m gay, mummy, oh…tell them to leave me alone, oh, I’m british, oh, listen to my fruity gay accent, mummy!
Kate: [watching nervously]
Charles: Why…hey, you’ve no right to speak to me like that! [seeming upset]
Raven: Oh, cheerio, I’ve got to go to FOOSYBALL practice with my boyfriend, oh, I mean I want to go cross dress in my bedroom now, don’t tell anyone!
Charles: Shut up!
Raven: Oh, dear, now the little boy has gone and made me all upset! I do hope I don’t end up ruining my nail polish! Oh, mummy!
Charles: I SAID shut UP!
Raven: Why, what are you gonna do about it, Queen Elizabeth? Huh, pansy?
Kate: Roger that’s enough-
Raven: You going to get your mummy in here, huh? Or maybe that crazy WITCH you work for!? What’re you gonna do, beat me with your pink parasol?
Charles: Shut your mouth, boy.
Raven: You’re just worried cause you know you’re not a REAL man, you’re just-
Kate: Roger! I said that’s enough!
Raven: [quiets down, seeing Charles looking upset] [Silence as Charles leaves quickly]
Lily: You didn’t have to go that far. He was really upset.
Raven: Yeah, well, I think you’re forgetting he kidnapped us.
Lily: Raven-
Raven: Look, I’m getting us out of here, okay? Why does it matter how he FEELS anyways? He’s just some loser.
Kate: C’mon, Raven, that’s not exactly fair…it’s not like they’re hurting us or anything! It could be a lot worse!
Raven: Oh whatever. I’m going to go see if I just managed to save your sentimental little butts. [goes up, picks the lock on the gate. Walks over to bookcase]
Kate: Careful, you don’t want to get shocked again…
Raven: [reaches forward, touches the bookcase back without getting hurt] [face lights up] ha HA! Look!
[Lily and Kate stand up and walk over to where he is]
Kate: Oh my god….it worked! We’re outta here!
Lily: Yes!
Kate: Wait…how do we know where we’re going to end up coming out in our world?
Raven: We don’t. But we don’t have time to consider. [looks at the door determinedly] This is our only chance right now, so…[pushes door open slowly to reveal a black empty space]
Kate: What-what’s out there?
Lily: [makes nervous noise]
Raven: [reaches outside of chamber and gropes around until he finds a switch and turns it on to reveal Maya’s basement] What the hell….?
[kids step out, bookcase closes behind them]
[kids glance nervously backwards]
Kate: Where is this? It looks like our world, for sure, but…this sure isn’t that alley we were in before.
Lily: Good. That alley was creepy.
Raven: Yeah….[glances around, catches sight of something (to be figured out) that is Anna Lucia’s] I think this must be her, like, earth house or something.
Kate: Heh?
Raven: You know, like a summer home, just….in a different world.
Lily: Weird. Chrissy says she wants us to get a summer home but in the magic world.
Kate: Okay…[distracted, looking around] once we get home…
Raven: Okay, okay let’s get out of here! [turns and starts running for the stairs] It’s now or never guys, we’ll have to figure out where we are once we get out of this house!
[Shot of Kate and Lily running after him, and then blackout]
END OF SCENE 7
Comment please! I didn't edit much cause I'm tired so if there're mistakes or places where it doesn't flow, we'll fix them at rehearsal! Thanks!

That was great....and I know where that Queen Elizabeth line came from.......

OH FOOSYBALL PRACTICE OH YES!! I NEARLY FORGOT!!!!! rofl

Um.....cha....and it was great where you added the whole "real man" line. Of course Charles would get upset about that since his dad had been yelling at him about it all the time.

Can't wait until scene 8!!!!


commentCommented on: Tue Dec 05, 2006 @ 03:11am
What about Queen Elizabeth??? I'm missing something here....

FOOSYBALL!

I'm so glad you guys like it!!! I'm so excited about all this!

Heh, Queen Elizabeth comes from this story I was writing/"play pretend" game I had with Claire quite a bit ago, and she was this British guy....not nearly as prissy as Charles, but the main character was a TOTAL sarcastic b***h, in a funny way, so she called him that. mrgreen
FOOSYBALL! I love that he can't pronounce sports. And yeah, Claire, I thought that line really would upset him....

I'm glad it's funny and clever! That's so much of what I'm looking for! Thank you guys, I love getting support for this script cause I'm always afraid I'm gonna do something bad or something.....BUT YAY! I DON'T THINK I DID!

stupid Maya. *grins obnoxiously* RAVEN gets slapped.....

But I think it's good that Emma finds it funny....it will make it easier for her to be heartless when she is Anna Lucia. But since it is in writing, it's also possible that it came off more amusing than sad to her.....we'll see what happens when we film!


commentCommented on: Wed Dec 06, 2006 @ 01:28am
No... that made me laugh too much for it to be sad in any circumstance. Dude... I love Charles... I love outrageous gay people...

YAY FOR MY SUMMER HOME WITH 2 WIDE SCREENED TV'S!

And I like this ending...


commentCommented on: Thu Dec 07, 2006 @ 09:48pm
I like it more when it leaves you hanging. I don't know why, I just well do. I think the proper place for this new ending of scene 7 should be like in.......well.....scene 9 because most likely scene 8 is going to be with Charles and Anna Lucia. Then, scene 9 could start with what they see!

I don't know. Just a suggestion.

That's what I thought, at first, too....but it wouldn't work. I'll explain later.
