THE CAMERA THEN ZOOMS OUT TO A CLOSE UP OF

TEENAGED EMMETT BROWN.

INT. HILL VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL.

In Science Class.

INT. EMMETT BROWN.

In a day dream.

A female science teacher can be heard, talking about Albert Einstein's, a once Science Genuis - discoveries.

Her voice is dimly heard, behind the subconscious of the Future Visionary of the Fluxcipacitor.

TEACHER (O.S).

Albert Einstein, discovered that the speed of light, within a vacuum, is the same no matter the speed, at which an observer travels.

Emmett Brown is then brought out of his day dream.

TEACHER

Emmett Brown!

Emmett jumps up startled.

TEACHER

Are you with us?

Emmett looks round the classroom.

INT. STUDENTS.

They are all staring at him.

It appears quite intimidating.

INT. RONALD HARRIS

The 17 year old smugly looks at a rival in his eyes.

Emmett is stuck for words, after being caught off guard.

TEACHER

I'm not boring you am I?

Emmett feels nervous and awkward and embarrassed.

The other students still stare.

EMMETT

Um, no Miss Harper. Just thinking.

MISS HARPER

Hopefully, about what we just discussed.

Emmett tenses looking down.

EMMETT

Right.

MISS HARPER

What about his theories on Time Travel?

Emmett eyes dart up.

MISS HARPER

Why don't you enlighten us Mr Brown.

Emmett thinks for a moment.

SUDDENLY THE SCHOOL BELL RINGS OUT!

The students leave their seats. Emmett stays on his seat.

Ronald gloats at Emmett and his picks up his School Books.

Miss Harper instructs her class, as they start to exit.

MISS HARPER

If you all study, Einsteins Theory of General Relativity, there will be a quiz tomorrow.

(she then turns her attention to Emmett)

Isn't that understood Emmett?

Emmett hesitates and then nods.

He grabs his books and leaves class.

EXT. HILL VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL.

DAYLIGHT. AUTUMN SUNSHINE.

Autum leaves are seen falling down from trees and blowing across the front grounds

of the school.

EXT. EMMETT BROWN.

He runs down the steps to the main ground.

He wraps his scarf around his neck and puts his left hand in his overcoat.

EXT RONALD HARRIS.

Intercepts him. He starts to tease him.

RONALD

Flunking already are you Emmett?

EMMETT

Just a little tired.

Ronald pulls a face.

RONALD

Tired. Since when do you get tired?

EMMETT

I don't know

(shrugs)

RONALD

And there was me thinking, you were gonna be student of the year. Maybe you're just not cut out to be the genius you think you're gonna be.

Emmett decides not rise above Ronald and brushes past him.

EMMETT

I gotta go.

RONALD

Hey Emmett!

Emmett stops and turns round to reluctantly

acknowledge him.

RONALD

Seen any flying Trains lately?

Ronalda laughs and walks away.

Emmett is upset and storms off.
