DYLAN
(Internal) Oh god…
is there anything in the fridge?
DYLAN
(Sighs) There’s nothing I want...
what about the cupboards?
DYLAN
Nope nothing, damn it
DYLAN
Wish I could have some McDonalds.
DYLAN
Do I even have any money right now?
DYLAN
What?! How did I spend it all?!
Dylan opens his desk draw and starts looking around for
any cash he might have. He finds nothing and huffs,
falling back into his seat.
DYLAN
Crap... now I’m just gonna starve
He hops off his chair and back onto his bed, lying down
and just staring at the ceiling. Once again, his stomach
rumbles and it's clear that it’s paining him. His eyes
wander and settle on the three Yoshi's that are on his
shelf.
DYLAN
I don’t know what to do Yoshi...
I don’t have any money, but I need that burger.
DYLAN
You all think I’m broke and that I
should get a job?
DYLAN
Jeez, that’s harsh. You know how difficult it is to
get a job in this day and age.
He turns back in shock.
DYLAN
Okay give me the benefit of the doubt,
I’m just hungry!
DYLAN
Cool, awesome. Thanks guys!
DYLAN
Okay so what now?
DYLAN
Huh? Why are they phoning me now?
CALLER
Hey dude, didn’t you hear?
McDonalds is selling free burgers today!
Dylan is silent.
CALLER
Uh you there? Was just wondering if you knew,
d-don't hang up on me-
DYLAN
Wait, am I forgetting something?
DYLAN
My keys!
He jumps back inside to go find his keys. A shot of the
driveway is shown, and he finally comes outside, slamming
the door behind him and running past the camera.
DYLAN
(Internally) I’ll get the bus...
there’s a stop not too far from here...
Dylan runs off his road and looks both ways before
starting to run up. The camera follows from behind as he
comes up to the bus stop, then it comes up ahead of him
and focuses on him as he stops.
DYLAN
Look, there it is!
He points and the camera goes to face the bus stop before
going back to him.
DYLAN
Let’s wait for one to come.
DYLAN
Guess I’ll have to run all the way
there... Sounds like fun.
DYLAN
(Internally) It’s all worth it, I swear.
All for that sweet, sweet burger...
DYLAN
(Internally) And as long as I have people
behind me, I’ll be able to keep going.
People cheer as he runs past, everything begins to move
in slow motion as he draws closer to the finish line in
town centre.
DYLAN
I can reach the finish... I CAN DO IT!!
DYLAN
Thank you all for joining me,
now it’s time to get some McDonalds!
DYLAN
(smugly) One *free* big mac please.
CASHIER
Uhm, we aren’t selling free burgers.
DYLAN
B-But I was told-
CASHIER
Sorry, you were told wrong.
Go home guys.
DYLAN
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
The End.
