“BREAKFAST ON THE GO”
By Tom Thompson
INT. KITCHEN - MORNING
Two pop tarts are dropped into the toaster and the handle is pushed down by a woman’s fingers that are painted red. The toaster’s heat which is located below in a diagram with three different shades of black and has white letters in each of the rectangles ranging from one to ten. Bobby’s father is reading the morning news paper at the kitchen table while Bobby’s mother is making Bobby’s lunch.
INT. BOBBY’S ROOM - MORNING
Door is closed by Bobby leaving his bed room in a rush, slamming the door as he closes it and the middle baseball cap of three hanging on a rack on the door falls off the rack then to the ground.
INT. KITCHEN - MORNING
Bobby’s father is still sitting at kitchen table and Bobby’s mother is finishing Bobby’s lunch. Pop tarts pop out of the toaster with legs coming out the bottom of the pop tarts and they run off the counter and out the dog entrance on the door. Bobby’s father who is reading the news paper looks over the newspaper as the Bobby’s mother turns around to see the dog door flap swinging back and forth. Bobby comes down and notices the dog flap swinging and asks his mother something as he comes to a stop next to the table.
Bobby’s mother looks over at Bobby.
Bobby waste’s no time running to the door and opening it but before he can step out Bobby’s mother yells.
Wait! You forgot your lunch.
Bobby grabs the brown paper bag from his mother’s outstretched arm and Bobby heads out the door slamming it as he closes it, the dog flap swings back and forth again.
EXT. SIDEWALK – MORNING
The white fence door is slightly cracked open enough for the two pop tarts to come through one at a time racing down the sidewalk away from Bobby’s house. Bobby comes running out and looks toward the running pop tarts and takes off leaving the fence to swing in and out once. The pop tarts turn left at the end of the block and Bobby fallows.
EXT. STORE ENTRANCE – MORNING
The pop tarts run towards two me carrying a large skinny rectangular box that says; handle with care glass on a red sticker on the flat side surface. The pop tarts split on either side of the two men walking down the sidewalk. Bobby is closing in on the pop tarts when suddenly the two men come to the door of the store that they are delivering the glass window to. The men turn the large rectangular glass window long ways covering the sidewalk, Bobby has no time to react so he jumps forward putting his hands out straight making himself a missile through the box. The men look at Bobby who jumps up to his feet and begins running again away from the two men waving their fists towards to pop tarts who are now crossing the road between the crosswalks to the park on the other side of the road. Bobby gets to the crosswalk and steps down onto the road only to jump back due to heavy traffic going both ways. The traffic signal turns red and the electronic walk symbol turns white. Bobby takes off running.
EXT. PARK WALKWAY – MORNING
The pop tart on the right jumps up on to a bench, then over a trash can that is sitting next to the bench, and lands next to the other pop tart who is still running full speed. Bobby is waiting at the other end of the park smiling as the pop tarts run toward him. Bobby leans down closer to the ground with his arms outstretched. The pop tarts run to different hands and Bobby stands up with the two pop tarts grasped softly in his palm.
EXT.SCHOOL ENTRANCE – MORNING
Bobby runs up to Eric holding a cereal bar leaning up against the wall of the school eating, Eric bites his cereal bar.
What took you so long dude?
I was running behind and had to catch breakfast.
Should have grabbed a cereal bar!
Eric takes another bite of the cereal bar and stands straight up off the wall and joins Bobby who starts to walk up the stairs to the school, Bobby’s brown lunch bag breaks.
