Buffy the Vampire Slayer Page #3

MAN:

You are much more.

He hands her the stake. She feels the fit.

MAN:

(continuing)

One dies, the next is called...

As she grips the stake more tightly, an awareness and sense of

power sees to fill her. She lifts the stake over her head.

CLOSEUP - A HAND

The hand is lifted high, but it is not the girl's. It holds

not a stake, but a pom-pom.

EXT. HEMERY HIGH FOOTBALL FIELD - WIDER SHOT - DAY

Opening CREDITS OVER:

A football game in progress. The stands are pretty full, the

crowd enthusiastic. The hemery football stadium is just that;

a real stadium, not just makeshift stands on grass.

On the sidelines are the Hemery cheerleaders, led by BUFFY.

She is blonde (in nature as in name), pretty, and very

gracefully athletic. She obviously enjoys what she is doing,

and she's good at it.

With her on the squad are JENNIFER and NICOLE, two of her best

friends. Beside them the COACH, yelling at the players. The

scoreboard reads HEMERY VS. SETON.

On the field are JEFFREY, wide receiver (and Buffy's boyfriend),

ANDY, quarterback, and GRUELLER, the huge left tackle.

Buffy and the crowd wince as Andy is sacked for a nine-yard

loss.

COACH:

Come on, do the play! The one

where... the one from the book!

Where you make it go forward!

The players huddle.

ANDY:

All right, guys, come on!

He hits Grueller's helmet.

ANDY:

(continuing)

Grueller! Fill that hole! They

were all over me! Okay. Let's run

twenty-two. Grueller, close the

pocket, watch out for thirty-five.

Thompson, run the post, right, wide

out. Jeffrey, go up the middle and

run around like a chicken.

They clap and break. As they line up, Jeffrey looks over at

Buffy. She smiles at him. He winks, very suave.

BUFFY AND CHEERLEADERS

Jeffrey! Jeffrey!

He's our man!

If he can't do it

We don't want it!
