What In The World! Season 1 Episode 5: Panic At Pizza Palace

EXT. PIZZA PALACE - NIGHT
Daniel, Joel, and Greg stand outside of Pizza Palace. Greg is carrying a duffle bag filled with their supplies.
DANIEL
Ok, we all know the plan? We trade Tyler and we keep our supplies. Without killing anyone.
JOEL
Dude, you are such a buzzkill.
The three friends walk into the restaurant. Joel grabs a cup and goes to the soda fountain. Soda pours out into his cup.
JOEL
No way! Guys, the soda machine still works.
Joel takes a sip.
JOEL
Oh, oh my. Nope, nope it’s bad. It’s really bad. Ugh, what flavor even is that?
GREG
Looks like we’re the first ones here.
The Sisterhood enters the restaurant. Bailey is escorting Tyler whose hands are tied.
The guys stand at one end of the restaurant and the girls at the other. Daniel sees Bailey.
JOEL
Dude, it’s Bailey.
DANIEL
I can see that.
JOEL
Now’s your chance to ask her out.
DANIEL
What the hell is wrong with you?
JOEL
I’m just trying to help you get laid. For all we know, this might be your only chance.
DANIEL
Shut up.
Daniel looks at Tyler.
DANIEL
You ok Tyler?
TYLER
Yeah.
Joel is still drinking the flat soda.
JOEL
See, I told you he’d be fine.
GREG
Why are you still drinking that?
JOEL
I’m thirsty.
CLAIRE
Did you bring the supplies?
DANIEL
Yeah.
Greg lifts up the duffle bag.
DANIEL
All our food and drinks are in there.
CLAIRE
Toss it over here.
DANIEL
Not until you give us Tyler.
Claire motions to Bailey. Bailey escorts Tyler to the other side. Greg tosses the bag over. Victoria opens the bag. It is filled with empty beer cans.
VICTORIA
It’s a trick.
CLAIRE
Ladies!
The Sisterhood prepares to attack. Joel grabs Bailey and puts his Glock to her head.
JOEL
Nobody move!
DANIEL
Dude, what the fuck are you doing! This isn’t the plan!
TYLER
It’s those damn Tarantino movies he likes to watch.
JOEL
Don’t worry Dan, I’m not gonna kill your future wife.
(To Bailey)
His words.
DANIEL
Dude!
CLAIRE
Easy. We don’t want any trouble.
GREG
Should have thought of that before kidnapping Tyler.
TYLER
Guys really, it wasn’t that bad.
JOEL
Shut up Tyler. Now, we are going to leave with our friend. We are going to keep our supplies. We’ll let Bailey go once we’re out of the building.
CLAIRE
What makes you think you’ll make it out of here?
JOEL
I’m sorry, do you not see my gun? I think we’re gonna make it out.
CLAIRE
You really think you're the only one with a gun?
JOEL
You’re damn right I am. Now, if you’ll excuse us...
CLAIRE
Ladies!
The Sisterhood ladies each pull out a gun.
JOEL
Oh shit.
GREG
You gotta be fucking kidding me.
DANIEL
Whoa whoa whoa! Everyone just take it easy!
JOEL
Where the fuck did you get guns?
CLAIRE
Campus police.
JOEL
Well, that’s a reassuring thought.
CLAIRE
Now, you’re going to let our girl go and then we’re going to kill you and then take your supplies.
DANIEL
No one has to kill anyone. We can survive together. No one has to die.
JOEL
Well, except Winston.
DANIEL
Joel, not the time.
GREG
Who’s Winston?
JOEL
Some conspiracy nut guy that Dan killed.
GREG
You killed a guy?
DANIEL
It-it-it was an accident.
JOEL
I wouldn’t call pushing someone onto a piece of metal rebar an accident.
CLAIRE
Well, looks like someone is a hypocrite.
DANIEL
No! He tried stabbing me with a knife cause he thought I was a Martian and I pushed in self-defense.
JOEL
Yeah, sure.
DANIEL
You were there, asshole!
JOEL
Yeah, which makes me an accessory to murder.
Daniel looks at Bailey.
DANIEL
I-I-I-
CLAIRE
Ok, this is just pathetic. Ladies, let’s waste these fools.
BAILEY
Wait Claire. I think Daniel’s right. We should survive together.
Pause.
CLAIRE
You know Bailey, I would agree with you. But I know that you called my spring formal dress tacky.
BAILEY
Shit.
CLAIRE
Fire ladies.
The Sisterhood ladies open fire on the guys and Bailey. They duck behind overturned tables and booths.
TYLER
What the fuck are we going to do!
Joel returns fire.
JOEL
I don’t have that many bullets! Greg, we need you to go full Rambo.
GREG
What!
JOEL
You know, John Rambo. He was a soldier who was good at killing people. Now, go out there and kill them.
GREG
I’m not that kind of soldier!
JOEL
What!
GREG
I was just an air technician.
JOEL
Are you fucking kidding me!
GREG
Hey, I still served my country!
JOEL
(Sarcastically)
Oh yeah, thank you for helping us BREATHE!
TYLER
This is not helping guys!
Bailey crawls over to Daniel.
BAILEY
You know your friends are idiots right?
DANIEL
Yeah.
BAILEY
You know we’re going to die here right?
DANIEL
(hesitantly)
Yeah.
Daniel looks around as pieces of debris fly around them. He looks at Bailey and the other guys.
DANIEL
I’m sorry.
The ground begins to shake. The Sisterhood stops shooting. The shaking stops. A bolt of green lightning comes through the roof and hits the middle of the restaurant. The blast knocks everyone down.
Everyone gets up.
JOEL
Owwwwwww. The fuck!
DANIEL
It’s happening again. The green lightning.
The guys and the Sisterhood look up through the giant hole in the restaurant. The sky is green.
GREG
Shit.
Grace sees that the guys are distracted and points her gun at Joel. Before she can shoot, a bolt of green lightning strikes her and vaporizes her body. More bolts strike the ground and pieces of furniture.
CLAIRE
Run!
The Sisterhood runs out of the restaurant. Daniel, Bailey, Joel, Tyler, and Greg run out too.
EXT. PIZZA PALACE - NIGHT
The Sisterhood runs back towards the direction of their house. The guys and Bailey stop outside of the restaurant and watch as the bolts of green lightning emanating from the green sky destroy the restaurant.
JOEL
Damn, I really liked their breadsticks.
Joel takes a long sip of the flat soda.
END.
