Note: Forgive me if this looks slightly different in formatting, but I had to fix the format.

20. Ext. Spoiled House - Curb

KRISTY'S car pulls up toe the curb, and LAINIE gets out of the passenger side, carrying a handbag with her. She turns to look at Kristy.

LAINIE
Thanks for the ride.

LAINIE'S POV Kristy smiles, and as she does so, her teeth gleams, and harmonious heavenly plays while her teeth suddenly shines like a flashlight.

KRISTY
(still with ultra whites)
You're welcome, Lainie. I'll be three houses down, k?

LAINIE
(she frowns)
Three houses down? But you'll be right across the street!

But it's too late to talk. Kristy's car swerves towards the driveway of the large Victorian house across the road. While doing so, she barely misses crashing into a garbage truck parked in the road. An angry GARBAGE MAN gets out of the vehicle, shaking his fist.

GARBAGE MAN
Hey, lady, watch where you're going!

INSERT A middle aged woman, MRS. WALLASS, emerges onto her front porch and sees Kristy's car zooming towards her.

MRS. WALLASS
AHHH SHITTTTTTT!!!

She runs back inside.

21. Int. Wallass House - Living Room

Kristy's car plows into the house, bringing down the entire front porch, as well as much of the living room ceiling and making a large mess of debris on the outside landscape.

Kristy gets out, cheerful, and not at all aware of the damage she's done. She looks at the huddled family, all of whom are staring at her.

KRISTY
So, that'll be $5.50 an hour right?

22. Int. Spoiled House - Same Time

LAINIE walks in, warmly. She greets Tommy's mother.

LAINIE
Good evening, Mrs. Spoiled.
(looks around)
Where's Dummy?

MRS. SPOILED
He's up in his room.
(frowns)
I don't know what he's been doing in there, but it reeks.

INSERT Dummy walks into the room, sees his mother and baby-sitter, and quickly hides the crack pipe behind his back before either of them can see it. Lainie notices him, and smiles.

LAINIE
(to Mrs. Spoiled)
Kids love me. I'm so good with children.
(to Tommy)
Isn't that right, Dummy?

LAINIE'S POV It's obvious, from his expression, he's getting annoyed with her calling him that. He decides to straighten her out.

TOMMY
MY NAME ISN'T DUMMY!!!

He kicks her in the shin. HARD.

LAINIE doubles over, holding her shin. She forces a weak smile at Mrs. Spoiled.

LAINIE
(in obvious pain)
See? Kids love me.

Mrs. Spoiled and her husband both leave, and Lainie hobbles into the TV room with Tommy. He pulls a magazine out from under the sofa.

LAINIE looks down at him in surprise. She didn't think he liked reading.

LAINIE
I didn't think you liked reading.

TOMMY
I don't.
(he motions her over)
Come here.

INSERT Lainie, longing to sustain her curiosity, sits down on the couch next to him. Tommy looks up at her, the magazine titles concealed under his hand on his lap.

LAINIE
What are you reading?

LAINIE'S POV He grins at her. Kids and their secrets...

TOMMY
Hustler, Playboy, and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. My mom doesn't like
me to have them.

LAINIE
I can see why!

23. Int. Wallass House - Same Time

KRISTY sits on the couch, watching an old horror movie with young
MEGAN, when suddenly the phone rings offscreen. Kristy gets up
to answer it.

CAMERA tracks alongside Kristy as she ANSWERS THE PHONE.

KRISTY
Hello?

A MALE VOICE on the other end responds. It's HOWIE.

HOWIE
Hey, my parents are out.
(beat)
Why don't you pick me up?

KRISTY
Can't. I'm baby-sitting.
(beat)
Screw it, I shall completely
Eschew my responsibilities and
have sex with you in someone
else's house, risking getting caught.

CLOSE it's obvious that Kristy really wants to do it. She hangs up and kneels down next to MEGAN, who's staring intently at the screen.

KRISTY
Megan, I have to go somewhere.
(beat)
You wanna go watch TV with Tommy Spoiled?

KRISTY'S POV There is no response. Megan keeps staring at the TV, seemingly in a trance.

KRISTY
Megan?

She touches the little girl's arm. Upon doing so...

MEGAN
(jerks awake and screams)
SHE WAS SHOT IN THE HEAD!!!!!!!

Kristy, startled by the girl's powerful movement, falls onto her butt backwards.

KRISTY
Ow!

24. Int. High School - Gym - Same Time

The gym is a busy place tonight. Almost every kid from town is there. And no wonder. The Halloween dance is underway. Music blares. Couples dressed in costumes dance and play Halloween games, such as "bobbing for apples".

And across the gym, near the stage, a plain looking blonde chick smiles in pure
bliss as she stands there next to her date, BEN LAMER. LYDIA and BOBBY, her
boyfriend, are among those watching the ugly chick being crowned the
inexplicable school title of "Scream Queen".

FRONT ANGLE favors the principal as she steps and, speaking into a microphone,
addresses the winning king and queen of the school dance.

PRINCIPAL
Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you...
(a beat; suspense builds)
BEN LAMER AND TERRY BITE!

The entire student audience breaks into applause and TERRY,
the blonde on stage, can hardly believe her good luck. She
basks in the warmth of the welcomed response.

25. Int. High School - Gym - Catwalk - Same Time

INSERT Overlooking the celebration, a teenaged girl sneers in contempt as
she hoists a large bucket onto the railing fifty feet above Terry's head.
She's planning something nasty and it's showtime.

GIRL
(sneering)
Get me in trouble, will you, Terry, you bitch!

She starts to push the bucket over and just then,
Mental ATTACKS, appearing behind her on the
catwalk. He starts plunging his knife into her back
again and again.

The girl SCREAMS, and her flailing bloodied hand
accidentally slaps the bucket off the railing, sending
a lake of blood plummeting downwards.

26. Int. High School - Gym - Stage - 2.5 nanoseconds later

INSERT the blood splashed down, nailing Terry dead center, drenching her with
its' disgusting red matter. Terry smile fades and she starts looking PISSED.

Suddenly, chaos breaks out as a dormant FIRE HOSE starts spraying water
around the room. Students SCREAM as chaos breaks out. TERRY concentrates
on taking revenge for this wrong.

27. Int. High School - Gym - Catwalk - Same Time

MENTAL, standing over the girl's DEAD BODY, watches the goings on below him,
and then, suddenly notices that the bucket is still on the railing, hanging by a
rope. Mental begins cutting the rope.

As soon as the rope is severed, he throws the bucket down.

28. Int. High School - Gym - Stage - 2.5 nanoseconds later

INSERT TERRY stands there, expressionless, watching the terror of the students,
Basking in her sweet revenge...

When the bucket suddenly falls out of nowhere, roughly, as if it was thrown, and strikes her...

...on the top of the head.

TERRY
(losing consciousness)
Ow.

She passes out, falling onto the floor of the stage.

LYDIA and BOBBY, seeing that the oddity is over and the hose is deactivated again, blink in amazement.

BOBBY
Whoa.
(beat)
Was I tripping on acid, or did that really just happen?

LYDIA is in a hurry to leave now. She drags him out of the door by his sleeve.

COMING SOON: The dance is in shambles, and Kristy wants to get laid, so what's she going to do now? Let little Megan videotape the whole thing? Or will she place the child under Lainie's care, thus advancing the plot? And where will Lydia and Bobby go after the disastrous Halloween party? Find out in the next hilarious chapter of my Halloween spoof!
