INT – MUSEUM – DAY
Joyce is showing a group around as she spots Buffy at the back
JOYCE
I…that concludes the tour!
Joyce rushes over to Buffy and holds her shoulders
JOYCE
My god did someone die?
BUFFY
Only my circulation!
JOYCE
You’re in a museum
BUFFY
Keen observant skills Mom!
JOYCE
Are you in trouble?
BUFFY
I just thought I’d you know, come see you at work
JOYCE
You’re pregnant!
BUFFY
Mom!
JOYCE
Sorry it’s just…I didn’t even think you knew where or what a museum was
BUFFY
Way to decrease the dumb blonde
JOYCE
You’re sure everything’s okay?
BUFFY
(sigh)
Go back to work.
Joyce smiles
BUFFY
Wait…I need ice cream money
JOYCE
I’ll be home early. We’ll talk.
Joyce hands Buffy $10, Buffy looks up at her
JOYCE
It’s serious
She passes over another 10 and Buffy walks away
CUT TO.
EXT – MUSEUM – DAY
Buffy sits on the steps and looks around
FLASH TO WHITE
Angel walking away from her at Graduation
FLASH BACK
Buffy looks blank faced before bursting into tears
CUT TO.
INT – BRONZE – DAY
Willow and Xander are staring ahead of them in shock, jaws wide open
WILLOW
It’s so…
XANDER
It’s very…
CORDELIA
Isn’t it great?
WILLOW
Great…that…that’s a word
XANDER
Not one I’d use right now!
CORDELIA
Ah, come on it’s brilliant!
Cordelia grins up at the new movie poster – it’s six feet high and has her face across it with Stacey Dash buried in the corner
CORDELIA
Bet you wish you hadn’t gone behind my back now huh?
XANDER
I thought this was going straight to cable
PRODUCER
Are you kidding? Look at my leading lady!
CORDELIA
Oh and I got Devon fired!
WILLOW
Why?
CORDELIA
Duh! He’s such a sucky kisser!
WILLOW
I need to sit down
XANDER
I need to wake up
CORDELIA
You need to get off set! If you can’t love my movie, I can’t love you bye bye
They look back at her
CORDELIA
Security!
XANDER
Cordy!
WILLOW
Hey I’m not even here with you, I…I’m with Oz!
CORDELIA
Yeah because he has say in this!
(beat)
Bye Bye now!
CUT TO.
EXT – BRONZE – DAY
WILLOW
She needs to be taken down
OZ
Know what the best part was?
XANDER
The big ugly vein on her big ugly head?
OZ
The part where Willow said she was dating me and got me kicked out
WILLOW
Oops
OZ
It’s cool. I imagine that if the six viewers this thing gets, are fans, they’ll spread word and we’ll lose the cred
Xander and Willow stare at Oz
XANDER
Was that…
WILLOW
It was…
XANDER
A full sentence with multiple tones
OZ
I have layers
WILLOW
He’s very layery – like an eskimo
(off looks)
With all their clothes and stuff because of the cold
XANDER
There’s only one thing I can make of all of this
CUT TO.
INT – BRONZE – DAY
PRODUCER
She’s perfect
ASSISTANT
You think he’ll like her?
PRODUCER
Just look at that skin – she’ll be the perfect sacrifice
STACEY
So it’s agreed – tonight he feeds
CUT TO.
EXT – BRONZE – DAY
WILLOW
Should we tell Buffy?
OZ
Maybe we should investigate first
XANDER
I bet it’s that Stacey! Nobody stays eighteen that long!
WILLOW
Demon!
OZ
I’d say witch
(off look)
Or demon.
XANDER
Hang on maybe we’re jumping to conclusions here
WILLOW
However B a movie is, she is the Tori Spelling of Sunnydale High!
FLASH TO
‘1997 – Grease’
CORDELIA
Danny!
ETHAN
Sandy! I thought you had to go back to Australia!
CORDELIA
(In appauling strangely English accent – think Annabelle in season seven)
They changed the plane!
(beat)
Plan! They changed, there was a change of plans
(pause)
Crap!
CUT TO.
OZ
That got her best review
WILLOW
Remember Bugsy Malone?
XANDER
Dear God! They’re gonna kill her!
OZ
Those in favour of the Buffy vote say “I”
XANDER/WILLOW/OZ
“I”
CUT TO.
INT – SUMMERS HOME – DAY
JOYCE
Wow
BUFFY
See – Ted was nothing
JOYCE
I feel so…no wonder you never do as you’re told, it’s an attention thing, you need love
BUFFY
No. I need vacation big awayish vacation
JOYCE
I don’t think running away from it will help
BUFFY
Mom! We’re being older sister today not Mom
JOYCE
Sorry
Willow and the others come running in
BUFFY
Excuse me we’re having a moment
WILLOW
We think Stacey Dash is a demon
BUFFY
Duh!
WILLOW
She’s going to do something to Cordelia!
BUFFY
Who wouldn’t!?
XANDER
Buffy! The Director loves her and cast her in the lead
BUFFY
Did he see Bugsy Malone?
OZ
Doubtful
BUFFY
(rolls eyes)
Fine.
CUT TO.
INT – BRONZE – DAY
CORDELIA
This part wasn’t in the script
STACEY
They just added it, trust me it will be so cool – we have this wicked monster
CORDELIA
Ooh special effects on this budget? Are we talking Jason and the Argonauts?
STACEY
Take a breathe Candella!
CORDELIA
Cordelia!
The entire cast and crew gather in front of Cordelia who is tied up on a pole
CORDELIA
Wow. Big scene.
Stacey pulls a curtain across to reveal a pool from which a demon emerges, all gunge and horns
CORDELIA
Wow. Big prop
(thinks)
Crap! Am I a sacrifice?
Stacey’s face changes to a demonic form
CORDELIA
I knew it!
BUFFY
Hey!
Stacey turns to Buffy who swings her head straight off with a hunga munga
BUFFY
Your show just got cancelled – big deal, join All my Children and get over it!
DEMON
Kill her
BUFFY
Hey! You interrupted a moment – there will be no killing today!
(beat)
Well, maybe for me
Buffy flips over and kicks the demon, surprisingly the minions all flee. The demon grabs Buffy and tosses her onto the stage as Oz and Willow untie Cordelia
BUFFY
That wasn’t very nice!
Buffy grabs one of the light wires and snaps it, swinging the light down into the pool – the demon dies as it’s frazzled to death
BUFFY
Wow.
XANDER
Yup.
BUFFY
Anti climatic
XANDER
Yup.
BUFFY
Wanna go eat?
XANDER
Yup.
END OF PART THREE
INT – BUFFYS ROOM – NIGHT
Willow is sat at the end of the foot of the bed as Buffy does a strange back combing thing with her hair
BUFFY
I can’t believe it!
WILLOW
I know
They stare at the TV and see Stacey on the Clueless E!True Hollywood Story
WILLOW
Wanna go track her down?
BUFFY
Nah! I’m sure we’ll find other things to do here!
WILLOW
I bet college is wicked scary – all the Urban Legends every campus has about the mysterious abandoned hall and the crazy mute janitor
BUFFY
I’m sure there’s all sorts of ooglie booglies beneath – I’m kinda looking forward to it
WILLOW
It’ll be weird though, without Cordelia being around, not for you I mean you just spend three years bitching with each other but, I’ve been to school with her for like a decade
BUFFY
I know what you mean, I don’t think I’ll miss her but I will, you know?
WILLOW
You’re a complex character Ms. Summers
BUFFY
That I am, that I am
(beat)
Xanders been in the bathroom forever did he like fall down?
CUT TO.
INT – BUFFYS BASEMENT – NIGHT
Xander is leaning out of the window as Cordelia leans in
XANDER
Call me okay
CORDELIA
Duh!
XANDER
This didn’t put you off acting?
CORDELIA
No way! I’m going all the way to TV Guide!
XANDER
Shout me out at the Emmy’s!
CORDELIA
You’d be lucky
She smiles and kisses him on the cheeks
XANDER
So why did you wanna meet me here?
CORDELIA
It’s where we had our first kiss
She smiles again and walks away to her cab as Xander watches out of the window
END.
