Otherworldly Storyboard

SFX: distant yelling, metallic whistles

SHANNON: I’m not feeling so great – I think I might head home early.
MICHELLE: Well, alright.

MICHELLE: Is there anything I can do to help?
SHANNON: Naw, I’ll be fine. Now go before you miss first drill!

SHANNON: Car. AutumnTrail Park. Now.

SFX: crickets and cicadas chirping

SHANNON: I thought if I took you to our favorite place, you’d want to talk.

EZRA: Shannon, this was our favorite place when we were kids.

SHANNON: Oh so since we’re in high school now, we’re not kids anymore?

SHANNON: I just don’t get it!

SHANNON: When did you turn into a big old grumpy pants?

SHANNON O.S.: I’m serious! Ever since you broke your arm at the game -

SHANNON O.S.: I can barely get two words out of you!

SHANNON O.S.: I know it’s been hard -

SHANNON O.S.: - and I didn’t want to annoy you -

SHANNON: - but I wish you would just -

SHANNON: … Wanna check it out?
EZRA: Uh-huh.

SHANNON: I’m still mad at you.
EZRA: Uh-huh.

SHANNON: So what do you think it is?
EZRA: Dunno, maybe a helicopter or small satellite?

SHANNON: It’s probably a spaceship!
EZRA: Spaceship? Are you crazy?

SHANNON: Michelle talks about that kind of stuff all the time! Most of it actually does sound plausible!
EZRA: Who’s Michelle?

SHANNON: She’s on the squad with me, and she’s my science lab partner! She’s the best!

EZRA: Well, it’s definitely not a spaceship. But to humor you, I’ll bet a bag of gummy worms on it!
SHANNON: (laughs)

SHANNON: Oho, man! A gummy worm bet? Maybe there IS hope for you!
