Ace Ventura: Pet Detective Page #2

The car drives by a sign on a telephone pole: "Reward" -- with a

picture of the Shiatsu in Ace's

seat.

THRASH MUSIC ENDS

INT. HOUSE - DAY

A very sexy woman is hugging and kissing the Shiatsu.

WOMAN:

My little baby. You missed mommy

didn't you? Did daddy hurt you?

I won't let him, no I won't. He

may have kept the big screen TV,

but he's not gonna keep my baby.

No he isn't.

(very sexy to Ace)

Thank you, Mr. Ventura. How can I

ever repay you?

She slinks over to Ace and puts her arms around his neck.

ACE:

Well, the reward would be good,

and there was some damage to my �

She cuts Ace off with a devastating kiss.

WOMAN:

Would you like me to take you

pants off instead?

ACE:

Ummmm� Sure.

She pulls him toward the bedroom.

WOMAN:

It takes a big man to stand up to

my husband. He's already put two

of my lovers in the hospital.

ACE:

How did he find out? Does he have

you followed.

WOMAN:

No� I tell him

She plants a kiss on Ace's neck and pulls him down out of frame onto

the bed.

EXT. DOLPHIN STADIUM PLAYING FIELD - DAY

The stands are empty, but there's plenty happening on the field. The

Miami Dolphins are

practicing. Dan Marino is in top form, hitting pass after pass.

Behind one of the goal posts, the team's mascot, a rare dolphin

(SNOWFLAKE), wearing #4, is

practicing his routine. The Trainer is dressed like a quarterback.

TRAINER:

Blue! 42! Blue! 42! Hut! Hut!

Snowflake swims over, snatches a small football out of the Trainer's

hand, and does an end zone

dance on his tail. He then returns the ball to the trainer.

The Trainer now sets the ball on the dolphin's tail and snowflake

"kicks" a perfect field goal. The

Trainer blows a whistle and raises both arms.

DISSOLVE TO:

EXT. DOLPHIN STADIUM PLAYING FIELD - NIGHT

The stadium is now completely empty. Snowflake peacefully swims around

his tank.

Suddenly, the water is illuminated by the headlights of an n.d. panel

truck.

The rear door slides open. Two men jump out in wet suits.

They slip into the water while a third waits outside the tank.

Snowflake surfaces to check out the action. One of the men holds out a

fish. Snowflake eagerly

takes it, then shudders as a large syringe is stuck into his back.

Snowflake thrashes around.

Quick cut of a hand with the blur of a ring slamming against the tank.

But the needle has done its

job. Snowflake quickly goes limp.

Snowflake is loaded into the back of the truck. Move in on Snowflake's

face. His excited cackle

has turned into a painful whimper.

The truck skids away passing the guard gate. The guard is hog tied and

gagged, struggling to free

himself.

INT. ADELLE'S FRIENDLY PET SHOP - NEXT DAY

Close up on a dead goldfish laying on a newspaper. We pull back to

reveal ADELLE

ROSENBERG, the seventy year old owner of a cluttered pet shop. She's

handing a live goldfish in

a bag to JENNIFER, a very sweet nine year old.
