Mojave Moon Page #2

Synopsis: Al McCord is hanging out at his favourite restaurant when he meets an attractive young woman (Ellie) who is looking for a ride from the city out into the Mojave Desert, where her mother lives. Little does he know that while Ellie is falling in love with him, he is falling for her mother (Julie), despite the nearby presence of Julie's boyfriend who seems likely to go berzerk at any moment. Even more strange, hilarious events follow and it's up to Al to find some explanation. His life may never again be the same.

OK.

Hey, can we get another beer over here?

Wanna dance?

Yeah!

- Still want to do it?

- Yeah!

Good.

- Should I?

- Oh no, I'll take it.

Thank you.

- I see you ate the ice cream last.

- I did, because it was very good.

- This isn't my driving cup!

- I'm sorry! I'll get...

You want me to spill that coffee

all over myself while I'm driving?

- I'm sorry!

- Am I being unreasonable?

- Alright, give it to me.

- You want it?

Listen!

I'm gonna go.

OK.

Kaiser.

- Hello.

- Mom, is Al still there?

- Where are you?

- I'm at the Buffalo Chip.

I had to meet Kaiser here.

Kaiser?

Yeah. Look, it's Al that I have to talk to.

It's really important.

It's for you. Ellie.

Thank you.

- Hello.

- Al, is that you?

- Yeah. Where are you?

- I'm at the Buffalo Chip. Don't get mad, OK?

- What's a Buffalo Chip?

- It's a bar. I had to see somebody.

- Are you OK?

- Yeah. You remember my boyfriend Kaiser?

- No.

- I told you about him, remember?

- No. You never told me about him.

- Yes, I did.

Listen, he wants to get married,

and I said OK. OK!

Hello?

- So you're gonna marry him?

- Yeah. I'm sorry, honey.

It just kinda came up, you know?

Just came up?

Hold on.

Is everything OK?

Ellie's getting married...

to somebody named... Kaiser.

- You better talk to her.

- Ellie, am I hearing right?

She hung up.

- Where is she?

- Eh... the Buffalo... Chip.

That isn't a very good situation, isn't it?

Well, I gonna go to work.

A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

He can be very... protective.

Yeah? I see what you mean.

Look...

I gotta go.

Al?

- Am I what you expected?

- You mean as Ellie's mom?

Well I didn't expect somebody so pretty.

Well, you are.

You are exactly what I expected.

Is that right?

It's late.

I better get going.

Won't start, huh?

That's strange. I don't know what's wrong.

- It's an electrical thing.

- That couldn't be, the car's practically brand new!

No, no, no. Not your car.

This place!

The movable home gives off

some sort of wierd wigwags.

This place is... kinda like a...

Bermuda Triangle for cars.

Nope. You won't be going

anywhere soon in this car.

Well... uh... can I use your phone?

Sure! It's all yours.

I see.

OK, well thanks.

They say it could be a while.

There's a big wreck-up on the 14.

- You like frozen daiquiris?

- Is that what you're making?

Best in the west!

You're really amazing!

- You wanna see something?

- Sure!

Wait one minute.

Follow me.

- What do you think?

- Well... it's very nice.

I never saw anything

like this on a trailer.

Movable home.

That's... that's what I meant.

Boyd built it for me... a long time ago.

He never comes up here.

- It's just for me.
