SPACE TREE: Don't worry. Space Tree will break you out of there, because I'm legally obliged to.
{Cut to the cardboard figure of Commander (in his prison cell). The words "AND SO..." are there on the upper-left hand corner.}
COMMANDER: Okay.
{Cue opening.}

{Cut to the prison cell, where the news is playing on a TV. Commander walks in from the right.}
COMMANDER: Hey, the space president's {just as Tarbob is about to drink the paint, Commander turns off the TV} dead. Think we can get out of prison for that?
{Cut to Allon sitting on a bench.}
ALLON: I don't know. Why don't you ask the warden?
{Cut to a view of outside the cell, where The Warden comes in from the left.}
THE WARDEN: Did somebody say my name?
COMMANDER: {off-screen} Hi Mr. Warden...
{Cut to Commander in the cell.}
COMMANDER: ...we were just wondering if due to this terrible tragedy that's happened, if we'd be able to get out of prison to grieve for this terrible tragedy loss.
{Cut to The Warden.}
COMMANDER: {off-screen} Terrible.
THE WARDEN: I'm afriad that's not possible, buddy. But I'm proud of you for askin'.
{Cut to Commander in front of the prison cell bars. The Warden gives him a candy cane through the bars.}
THE WARDEN: Have a candy cane.
COMMANDER: Hey, thanks!
{Cut to Allon, who gets off the bench.}
ALLON: Uh, it was my idea to ask you, me.
{Cut to The Warden.}
THE WARDEN: Well, good for you, Allon.
{Cut to Allon.}
THE WARDEN: Here's half a candy cane.
{Half of a candy cane is thrown to Allon.}
ALLON: {silently and angrily} Aw, this is bullcrap!
{Cut to Commander holding his candy cane.}
COMMANDER: Oh yeah, and it was my idea for him to have the idea. So, uh, {holds out his right hand} can I have another one?
{The Warden pokes in through the bars.}
THE WARDEN: Don't make me put you in the hole, Commander.
{Cut to a black screen that says "the next day..." A quick beat plays. Cut to a frustrated Commander in the cell.}
COMMANDER: {sighs} So when the hell is Space Tree comin' to break us out of here?
{Cut to Allon lying on the bench.}
ALLON: I told you, {holds up a piece of paper} the note says later tonight.
{Cut to a relieved Commander.}
COMMANDER: Oh, well, that's a relief.
{Cut to the same transition scene, except the words say "two days later...". The quick beat plays. Cut to a frustrated Commander with a different hairstyle and an X medallion.}
COMMANDER: {sighs} So when the hell is Space Tree comin' to break us out of here?
{Cut to Allon lying on the bench.}
ALLON: I told you, {holds up a piece of paper} the note says later tonight.
{Cut to a relieved Commander.}
COMMANDER: Oh, well, that's a relief.
{Cut to the same transition scene, except the words say "three days later...". The quick beat plays. Cut to a frustrated Commander with his hair pulled back and apparently wearing Allon's hat.}
COMMANDER: {sighs} So when the hell is Space Tree comin' to break us out of here?
{Cut to Allon lying on the bench.}
ALLON: I told you, {holds up a piece of paper} the note says later tonight.
{Cut to Commander (not relieved). Cut to Allon lying on the bench, holding the piece of paper that Commander takes.}
COMMANDER: Give me that piece of paper.
{Cut to Commander reading the piece of paper.}
COMMANDER: Oh what the... This says nothing about Space Tree.
{Cut to an angry Allon standing on the bench.}
ALLON: All right, so I can't read. It's not my fault Space Tree's a bad teacher!
{Cut to Commander reading the note.}
COMMANDER: Although, what it does say is {Commander goes off-screen and pops onscreen from the top} pret... {Commander goes off-screen and goes back to his original position} ...ty interesting.
{Cut to Allon on the bench.}
COMMANDER: {off-screen} Apparently, someone's going to kill you.
{Commander shows Allon the note that says "I WILL KILL YOU*". There is a smaller blue asterick below the message with a small blue message.}
ALLON: Aw, what??? What did I do? Hey wait, {pointing to the blue message} what's that small part on the bottom of the page?
{Cut to Commander reading the note.}
COMMANDER: Oh it's just...
{Cut to what the blue message says, "*you, the blonde-haired kid".}
COMMANDER: {off-screen} Ah. Son of a... It says, uh...
{Cut to Commander holding the piece of paper.}
COMMANDER: Space Tree's coming later tonight.
{Cut to a relieved Allon.}
ALLON: Oh, well, that's a relief.
{The quick beat plays.}
COMMANDER: {off-screen} Oh, it's all a lie!
{Cut to Commander in front of the TV (turned off), looking hopeless.}
COMMANDER: He's never coming and we're both going to die here! {kneels down} Especially me!
{Cut to a wider view of Commander (kneeling) shouting to above.}
COMMANDER: Damn you, Space Tree! {a ladder comes down} Damn you to...
{Just then, Space Tree falls and lands on Commander.}
SPACE TREE: Yeah, you sound much like a whiny bitch when you yell like that.
{Cut to Allon on the bench.}
ALLON: Hey Space Tree, {gets off the bench} let's get the hell out of here!
{Cut to Commander, who stands up next to Space Tree.}
COMMANDER: So I guess we'll be escaping now. {Space Tree walks off-screen} You know, it's like we've been in here for hardly any time at all. It's almost like a wasted opportunity. {jumps to the right} Well, {walks to the center of the screen} my only regret...
{Cut to a wider view of the cell with Commander, the TV, and the ladder.}
COMMANDER: ...is that I'll never get to find out who wanted to kill me.
PSYCOM: {off-screen} DIE!!!
{Psycom (dressed in Commander's usual attire, except the exclamation mark is a one) leaps onscreen and impales Commander with a spear.}
COMMANDER: Ah! Who the hell are you?
{Cut to a closer view of Psycom.}
PSYCOM: I am the r...
COMMANDER: {off-screen} No, wait a minute...
{Cut to a view of Commander (bleeding at where he's impaled) and Psycom.}
COMMANDER: ...more importantly, why the hell aren't you wearing one of these prison uniforms like the rest of us?
PSYCOM: It's Casual Friday, idiot!
{Cut to a closer view of Commander.}
COMMANDER: Oh, well, nobody told us anything about that.
{Cut to Psycom}
COMMANDER: {off-screen} Let's get the hell out of here!
{Psycom's bloody spear is thrown into his hand.}
COMMANDER: {off-screen} Sorry your killing me didn't work out so well.
{Cut to Commander in the ventilation shaft, looking down at Psycom.}
COMMANDER: And I'm not even going to ask why you're wearing that blue uniform that I usually wear.
{Cut to the prison cell, where Psycom is looking up at Commander, who is pulling up the ladder.}
PSYCOM: Well, good, because I wouldn't have told you anyway!
{Cut to The Warden standing in front of the cell's bars.}
THE WARDEN: Psycom, what are you doin' in this cell, buddy?
PSYCOM: Well, you know, I just wanted to kill some prisoners.
THE WARDEN: Oh, you and your killing. Now that's the reason why you're in here in the first place, isn't it?
PSYCOM: Well, yeah.
THE WARDEN: So where are those two inmates anyway?
PSYCOM: They escaped.
THE WARDEN: Escaped? {makes a clicking noise} Oh, those little rascals. Well, thanks for ratting them out, Psycom. Come step into my office. I'm giving you all the candy canes you can handle!
{Cue credits. Words say above the usual credits "Dedicated to the Memory of Freely McWheely, 1954 - 2005".}
