Mr. Deeds Goes to Town Page #2

FIRST BROTHER:

Better wire him right away, John.

CEDAR:

I'll do no such thing. I'm going

there myself. You're going with me

too, Anderson - and you too, Cobb.

He pushes a button on the intercom.

VOICE:

Yes?

CEDAR:

Make three reservations on the

first train out to Mandrake Falls,

Vermont.

VOICE:

(skeptically)

Where?

CEDAR:

Mandrake Falls.

(begins to spell as

scene fades)

M-A-N—

CUT TO:

EXT. A STATION

4. MEDIUM SHOT

It is a pleasantly rural scene - with just a handful of

local characters scattered about. At one end of the platform -

some mail - newspapers - and a few pieces of freight are

being loaded. Cedar, Cobb and Anderson stand in front of a

welcome sign. The three obviously are out of their element

here - obviously "City folks."

Over their shoulders. We hear Cobb's voice as he reads:

COBB'S VOICE

Welcome to Mandrake Falls -Where

the scenery enthralls -Where no

hardship e'er befalls -

Welcome to Mandrake Falls.

5. MEDIUM SHOT

Cobb and Cedar exchange glances.

COBB:

That's pretty.

CEDAR:

Are you sure this is the town he

lives in?

ANDERSON:

Yes sir, Mr. Cedar. This is the

town all right.

CEDAR:

Well, I dropped everything at the

office - I hope it's not a wild

goose chase.

ANDERSON:

No, sir. We checked it thoroughly.

He lives here all right.
