Typical breakroom. Some tables, chairs, upturned coffee mugswith fun little sayings and a Jinsei Energy Bomb being loadedinto a transport vehicle...

We join a Bandit convoy, transport and bomb lead.

INT. TRANSPORT - EVENING CONTINUOUS

Commodore Crisp is at the wheel.

COMMODORE CRISPHow we looking up there?

PAN TO pencil tower atop fridge where Corporal Can isperched.

CORPORAL CANOn it.

Corporal Can closes his eyes; we see what he sees (Note:Blurry, as if astro-projecting.)

On a far desk one of his nutty cohorts scans his area. All

clear.

4 more nuts split the screen. All Clear.

CORPORAL CAN (CONTD)Not a pencil nor pencil pusher insight, Cee Cee.

COMMODORE CRISPI really hate that you came up withthat first.

Commodore Crisp looks in the side mirror, Colonel Custard

peers back at him/us. He waves the OK sign and Custardgives the order to move forward.

POV B.E.V. The convoy moves cautiously forward. It movesunder a table.

On the next table is a cup, just a sliver off settled, and inthat little sliver are eyes.

Major Eraser shoves an apple out of the way revealing Brig.Bounce.

MAJOR ERASERPosition 1 Roger that.

From a plant on windowsill.

LT. LEAD

Position 2, cop---

From his vantage point he notices Number 2 trying to cut offthe Bandits. Number 2 flips past a trash can and concealshimself behind a table leg.

Colonel Custard sees a streak flash and halts the convoy atthe table line. He squints at what he thought he saw for abeat then...

COLONOL CUSTARDSpore! Youre up!

Spore bounds up to the front. Custard places a hand on hisbeefy shoulders.

COLONOL CUSTARD (CONTD)Break a leg... heck, break allfour!

Major Eraser jumps on his back and wraps a rubber strandaround foot, like saddle spurs.

MAJOR ERASERCrossbeam!

BOUNCEGoing down!

Bounce hops once, twice and arcs cleanly off the table!

POV Major Eraser in flight strapped to Bounce.

He releases falling like a bunjie jumper! Bounce sailstowards the beam, grabs it, swings around and around, tyingoff his loose end.

Eraser still stirruped into his rubber saddle swings into

battle.

Bounce Continues bouncing from crossbeam to cross beam.

Custard rushes at Scotchy as Number 2 & Lt. Lead tango withSpore. Just as he is about to fling his shield like a weapon3 arrows come sailing in to knock it free.

Custard looks up to see Eraser swinging in, he looks worriedfor a split second then we see it, a large dust storm formsbetween them then rushes at Major Eraser.

SCHWOOOOOMP! The storm passes leaving just the rubber strand.

No Eraser is in sight.

Lt. Lead sees this.

LT. LEADLeave him, save the Major!

NUMBER 2Dont go soft, get the Jinsei!
