EXT. highwood middle school - DAY
Three BOYS, all 12 years old, burst out of their middle schools' doors, breathing deeply the fresh air, arms extending to the heavens.
DARREL, is a scrawny kid with Shaggy light brown hair, oversized jeans, and boots.
Darrel
Can you smell it? Freedom!
NICK, a little taller than his friend, analyzes his surroundings, under a jet black hair bowl cut.
Nick
I smell explosions!
CARL, a little taller than Darrel but shorter than Nick, pulls a candy cane from his jacket and excitedly opens it.
Carl
Well I smell cookies, candy canes... Wait, explosions?
Nick jumps ahead of his friends, and points his fingers at them like guns. He makes pew-pew noises. The boys
jaws drop.
NICK
That's right, Captain Chad Musclelot, and his partner Lieutenant Samantha Rosylocks, are getting their own M Rated game!
Nick leans in closer, about out to deliver a secret.
Nick
And there's supposed to be some, romance, in it.
Darrel Oooos at the thought. Carl rummages some more candy canes out of his jacket.
Carl
You'll get caught again.
Nick
Will not!
Carl
You will when your mom walks in and sees all that romance going on in your room.
