Airplane II: The Sequel Page #4

Synopsis: Though haunted by combat memories, heroic pilot Ted Striker (Robert Hays) agrees to return to the cockpit to man the controls of Mayflower One, America's first commercial spacecraft. But, as soon as Mayflower One lifts off, an electrical malfunction sends the ship veering off course. A shaken Striker struggles to guide the shuttle through a treacherous asteroid belt, tame its failing computer systems and stop the disgruntled Joe Seluchi (Sonny Bono) from detonating a deadly bomb on board.

INT. SARG'S CAR - ON THE MOVE - NIGHT

He thinks about his wife. SPLIT SCREEN FLASHBACK OF THEIR

BEDROOM. Marge, a cigar in her mouth, is in bed with five

football players -- other half-clad athletes (hockey,

baseball, wrestling, basketball) line up for their turn at

her. Sarg has to climb over them to kiss her goodbye.

SARG:

Don't wait up for me, sweetheart. We're

testing the retro-rockets tonight.

MARGE:

You just can't see it, can you, Sarg.

SARG:

We'll talk tomorrow, hon. I promise.

JOHN:

That's us.

Jimmy Wilson looks at Scraps.

JIMMY:

Will Scraps be able to sit with us, Dad?

We'll have to check, Jimmy. It's a pretty

long trip to Mercury.

A PORTER approaches.

PORTER:

Can I help you folks?

JOHN:

(handing him a bag)

Thanks.

PORTER:

(noticing Scraps)

Is that your puppy, son?

JIMMY:

Yeah, his name is Scraps and he's going to

Mercury with us.

PORTER:

No dogs are allowed on the shuttle, son.

JIMMY:

But they said...

PORTER:

(pulling out a handgun)

Scraps will have to be shot. I can do it

for you here if you like.

He SHOOTS.

JIMMY:

Scraps!!!

PORTER:

(laughing)

Just joking. Blanks. See, Scraps is

fine.

Alice, John, and Porter crack up while Jimmy cries.

ALICE:

It was just a joke, Jimmy.

Alice and John look at each other as if there is something

wrong with their son.
