FADE IN:

INT - THE SEQUENTIAL DETECTIVE AGENCY - NIGHT

Smolder and Scullery are sitting at the desk. Drake is stretched out on the couch

reading a book titled "The Squirrel-Pigeon 2: Nature's Deadliest Sequel". Sculleryfiddles with her fingers.

SCULLERY

Where could he have gone? It's not like

he knows a lot of people besides us.

SMOLDER

Ex-movie studio executives tend to know

a lot of people Scullery so he could be anywhere.

Scullery walks over to the window and looks outside.

SCULLERY

Oh yeah. I keep forgetting about that.

Smolder slides off the desk and crouches down next to the couch. He reaches under it

and feels around.

SMOLDER

Well we haven't talked about it recently so

that's understandable.

Scullery walks over to the desk and opens one of the drawers. Smolder sits on the floor

against the couch.

SCULLERY

What are we gonna do?

Scullery starts pulling things out of the desk. She pulls out two leather whips, a little

griffin statue, a book titled "How to Sleep at a Professional Level", and another book

titled "Why Things Happen And What's In It For You."

SMOLDER

Maybe he's trying to find his father.

Scullery closes the drawer. Smolder stands up.



SCULLERY

But none of us know where Guildenstern

went into hiding.

Smolder closes his eyes for a few seconds and then opens them again.

SMOLDER

That's not exactly true. I just located him

with my thingamajig.

SCULLERY

Where is he?

SMOLDER

He's where no one would ever think

to look for him...

SCULLERY

The ceiling of a Denny's?

SMOLDER

No. Ashland, Oregon.

DRAKE

I wish I'd read the previous book because

this book is hard to follow. The plot is

really complex... and it's missing about

half of it's pages.

30 MINUTES LATER

Smolder is on the phone.

SMOLDER

Are you sure he's not around there?

GUILDENSTERN (V. O.)(from phone)

Yeah... wait, there he is!

(pauses)

Oh it's just a regular shoe box.

Scullery grabs the book away from Drake.



SMOLDER

If he finds you please let us know.

Drake leans off the couch and tries to grab the book back. He loses his balance and

falls off the couch.

GUILDENSTERN (V. O.)

(from phone)

And if you find him please let me know.

He's very special to me and if something

happened to him I don't know what I'd do.

Scullery helps Drake up and Drake grabs the book out of her hand.

SMOLDERWe feel the same way about him.

Scullery grabs the book and they tug-a-war with it.


(from phone)

I doubt that. He's my firstborn and creating

someone like him is a very unique experience.

We have a bond that can never be broken.

The book slips out of their hands and flies up in the air.


(from phone)

Do you know why he got so upset?

Drake jumps up, grabs the book, and then falls to the floor. Drake looks hurt.

SMOLDER

We're not exactly sure. He's never really liked

Drake but Alan's never been violent... ever.

Scullery snatches the book from Drake and puts it in one of the desk drawers.


(from phone)

It's probably a lot of little things that formed



into a big snappy thing. He'll be... I gotta go.

The line goes dead.

Smolder hangs the phone up.

SMOLDER

That was weird.

FADE TO:

INT. DIAMOND WATERFRONT GAMES OFFICE - DAY

Freya and Alan are sitting on the table.

ALANSo you've never been able to teleport?

FREYA

Nope.

(pauses)

It sounds like you're accessing new

powers.

ALAN

But why now?

FREYA

Maybe it's because of the intense anger you

felt.

(pauses)

I've always had this strange feeling that there

was a darkside to us but I've never experienced

it myself.

ALAN

So you think I've gone Sith?

FREYA

I'm not sure but I'd be careful if I were you.

ALAN

Don't judge me okay?



FREYA

I'm not judging.

ALAN

It sure sounds like it.

FREYA

I'm just worried about you.

ALAN

I want to ask you one more thing.

(pauses)

Is there a way I can contact our father

without knowing where he is?

FREYA

I don't think so.

Alan disappears.

FADE TO:


Drake sits on the couch. He is alone.

DRAKE

What's going on?

The TV flickers on.

TV (O. S.)

(from TV)

--their lives in A Mystifaction of Subterfuge.

THEME MUSIC

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

Who are you hiding from me, Stefan?

STEFAN (O. S.)



(from TV)

Someone that's hidden.

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

Well obviously.

Drake rushes over to the TV.

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)

Only three people in the United Mexico of

Austria know about this person and I'm one

of them. He's a backup plan.

JENNY (O. S.)(from TV)

For what? World peace?

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

No.

Drake shakes the TV.

DRAKE

Make with the exposition mouth!

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

Excuse me! We're talking here.

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)

That's him.

JENNY (O. S.)(from TV)

Who?

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)

Drake.



JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

Who's Drake?

DRAKEI'm Drake!

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

He's Drake?

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)

Yep. He's the back up plan.

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

Where is he?

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)

He's in the real world.

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

But isn't this the real world?

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)

Nope. This is a fictional TV show and

we're currently breaking the fourth wall.

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

So my life is a sham?

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)

Pretty much.

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)



Well what happens next?

Smolder and Scullery enter the room carrying groceries. The TV turns off. Drake turns

to them.

DRAKEI was so close to finding out my destiny

and you guys ruined it!

SCULLERY

We just bought you food so try acting

grateful!

FADE TO:

INT. DARK ROOM

Indrid sits on his chair with a small amount of light coming from above him. Next to

Indrid is a small table. He snaps his fingers and Alan SUDDENLY appears on the table.

A small spotlight focuses on Alan.

ALAN

What the heck!

INDRID

You have been diverted Alan Smithee.

ALAN

You're damn right I've been diverted!

I was trying to find a talking penguin

stuffed animal.

INDRID

You remember me do you not?

ALAN

You're the guy who screwed aroundwith my life.

INDRID

I am not to blame for your misfortunes. It is

humanity's fault.



ALAN

That's not true.

INDRID

Who took you from your father and

enslaved you at ARGH Pictures foryears?

ALAN

Humans I guess.

INDRID

And who imprisoned your father and

then forced him into hiding?

ALANThe people who run the Engelsikarios

Corporation---

INDRID

Who are human.

ALAN

But Smolder and Scullery are good.

INDRID

They have treated you like an amusement.

They think of you as a nothing more then

something to entertain them.

The table starts to wobble.

ALAN

That's a lie!

INDRID

And now they have Drake, an actual human,to take care of. Someone that they can actually

have real feelings for.

Alan starts to sob.

ALAN



They love me.

The table starts wobbling even more.

INDRID

Oh yes, they love you like they love theirtelevision. You are just a shoe box to

them. An amusing shoe box.

ALAN

Why are you telling me this?

INDRID

I'm telling you this because I love you

Alan. You're people love you and we

want you to know the truth.

The table stops wobbling.

ALAN

You mean the magical people?

INDRID

Yes. You belong with us. We want you

to join us in our war against humanity.

Will you join us Alan?

ALAN

Would you help me find and protect my

father?

INDRID

Of course.

ALAN

I need to think about this.

FADE TO:


Smolder is asleep in the chair and Scullery is asleep on the couch. Drake is sitting on

the floor in front of the TV.



DRAKE

Come on, come on, come on, come--

The TV flickers on.

DRAKE

Yes!

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

...so I shot him. I shot him good... and

that's how I got out of a parking ticket.

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)He's watching us again.

JENNY (O. S.)

(from TV)

I'm starting to have Suicidal thoughts. Since

I'm not real why should I keep living. There's

no point.

DRAKE

What's my Destiny, Stefan? I need to know.

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)

If it's that important to you then we might as well

talk face to face.

DRAKE

How are we suppose to do that?

STEFAN (O. S.)

(from TV)Just a second.

The SOUND of a five successive clicks.

SUDDENLY a flash of light.



Drake disappears.

The SOUND of Drake yelling coming from the TV.

DRAKE (O. S.)

(from TV)I don't like this!

CUT TO BLACK:

ALAN

I've thought it over and I've decided to

join you.

The SOUND of thunder.

THE END
