QUICK CUT:
RYAN
I swear you guys, I saw something.

¿Maybe it was an animal?
BILL
Or maybe it was a ghost...
ERIN
Oh come on, ¿A ghost?
BILL
Yeah, I heard this story from Mr.
Jenkins that there’s been a
haunting in this school.
ERIN
¿Mr. Jenkins? The same teacher that
told us last year that his cat was
possessed.

RYAN
And the same teacher that told us
his car could talk.
BILL
Yeah, Mr. Jenkins. But this time he
actullly sounded convincing and he
had evidence.
ERIN
¿Evidence of what?
BILL
¡Of a ghost!
RYAN
¿Of a ghost? ¿You’re kidding me,
right?
BILL
Dude, I swear im not, in the video
it looked so real.
ERIN
¿He’s got video evidence?
BILL
¡Yeah!
RYAN
Well, come to think of it, last
week i overheard a girl say that
she also say a shadowy silhouette.
BILL
See, I told you, there’s recently
been sightings of ghosts in this
school. In fact, I got a buddy
named Dwayne that almost caught a
ghost on his phone.
RYAN
¿How do you know all this and
haven’t told us about it? ¿And
who’s Dwayne?

BILL
I’m a busy guy, I can’t tell you
guys all the stuff that happens in
my life.
ERIN
Whatever.
BILL
Anyways, if you want, I could
introduce you guys to Dwayne and he
could explain everything, even the
story.
ERIN
¿What story?
BILL
¡The story about the ghost!
RYAN
I don’t know Bill.
BILL
Oh come on, he’s a fun guy.
ERIN
Honestly, I have nothing better to
do.
BILL
See, Erin is up to meet him.
ERIN
Come on Ryan, maybe he has some
funny wacky story to tell.
BILL (SMIRKING)
¡Come on!
RYAN (SMILINGLY)
¡All right!
