Little Nicky Page #4

Cassius throws a rock at the Monster. He yelps, then turns

around, motioning like he's thinking about coming back.

Cassius sees this and gets enraged.

CASSIUS:

Oh you wanna be a big man? Bring it

on!! Let's see what you got!

The Monster, upon further reflection, throws his hands up in

an "aw phooey" gesture and continues walking away.

CASSIUS (CONT'D)

That's what I thought!

ADRIAN:

(to Cassius)

Could you concentrate for five seconds?

CASSIUS:

I am concentrating. Where can we rule?

ADRIAN:

What do you think about...Earth?

Cassius seems to think this isn't a bad idea.

ADRIAN (CONT'D)

We could create our own hell there.

CASSIUS:

You saying we go up there and kill

everyone?

ADRIAN:

Eventually, Cassius. But first we

corrupt as many as we can so that when

we do destroy them...

CASSIUS:

...their damned souls will be ours.

ADRIAN:

It's our time, brother.

The two look at each other. They start running toward the

fire wall. Knocking souls out of their way.

GATEKEEPER:

Hey, what are you doing?!?

They get closer to the fire.

GATEKEEPER (CONT'D)

You can't go through there. The fire

flows in, not out.

They dive through the fire wall. It FREEZES.

GATEKEEPER (CONT'D)

You know something? You guys suck! You

really suck!

Sirens go off. Dogs start barking. Lights flash. And we

hear the sound of DAMNED SOULS hitting the back of the

firewall hard.

INT. THRONE ROOM - SHORTLY AFTER

Dad and Nicky are listening to one of Nicky's metal mix

tapes. We hear the end of Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb."

Pause. Dad exhales.

DAD:

Now that was an experience. "You are

only coming through in waves." That

line blows my mind every time.

NICKY:

Definitely.

DAD:

I don't care what kind of mood you're in

at the start of that song. When it's

over, that mood has been altered. Wow.

Great sh*t. What's next?

NICKY:

Well, I thought that after messing with

your head, I'd give you a little kick in

the keester.

Hits the tape player. "Enter Sandman" blasts.

DAD:

Who is this, Metal-lick-a?

NICKY:

Metallica, Dad. Come on.

DAD:

I was just playing with you.

Dad and Nicky dance to the song.

INT. THRONE ROOM - LATER

CLOSE ON DAD.

DAD:

I'm sorry. After careful consideration,

I regretfully have to decline.

ON PERSON HE'S TALKING TO: DAN MARINO.

DAN:

C'mon, man, I'm just asking for one

Superbowl ring.

DAD:

In exchange for eternal damnation of

your soul? You're too nice of a guy for

me to want to do that to you, Mr.

Marino.

DAN:

You did it for Namath.

DAD:

Yeah, but Joe was coming here anyways.

Just go back to Earth and enjoy your

records and the Hall of Fame and the

beautiful family and all that.
