WICHITA:
(whispers to Columbus)
Who’s telling him it’s mid June? *
COLUMBUS (V.O.) *
Why ruin the moment? It’s not *
often you get quality time with the
family. And by ‘family,’ I mean 4
people who could not be more
circumstances that could not be
more difficult. I’m Columbus. Not
my real name. In Zombieland, we go
by the cities we’re from. It was *
Tallahassee’s idea. Keeps us from *
getting too attached. *
The camera moves down the faces of our ‘family,’ ENJOYING the
DISPLAY, a slice of life as it once was. BOOM! BOOM!
COLUMBUS (V.O.)
Might’ve worked too well with *
Wichita. I mean, I love her, but *
she’s put up more walls than a *
(MORE)
7.
COLUMBUS (V.O.) (CONT'D)
That’s her kid-sister Little Rock -*
after all she’s seen, tough to call *
her a ‘kid.’ And finally, the *
Floridian himself - a zombie-*
killing, us-annoying legend. *
TALLAHASSEE *
Ssh. This could be the big finale. *
An awe-inspiring FINISH. The dust settles. Tallahassee
APPLAUDS by his lonesome, his claps ECHOING.
TALLAHASSEE:
Perfect.
LITTLE ROCK:
I dunno. It was missing something.
TALLAHASSEE:
It’s George Washington’s birthday!
Our teeth are red-white-and-blue *
from eating Bullet Pops! I just
blew up an entire fireworks
factory! What could possibly be
missing?
COLUMBUS:
(to Wichita, sotto voce)
Are we letting the ‘George
Washington’s birthday’ thing go?
WICHITA:
(to Columbus, sotto voce)
Maybe he was born on June 17th.
TALLAHASSEE:
Answer me! What was missing?!
LITTLE ROCK:
Can’t you hear?
Tallahassee strains to hear. He’s rewarded with NOTHING but *
VAST, ENCOMPASSING SILENCE. Columbus abruptly REALIZES:
COLUMBUS (V.O.)
All of a sudden, I knew. It wasn’t
what we could hear. It was what we
couldn’t.
Everyone gazes out over an empty STREET. An empty CITY.
8.
COLUMBUS (V.O.)
The oohs and aahs of a crowd. The
laughter of friends. The chatter
of children...
COLUMBUS:
What good is fun? If there’s no
one to share it with.
LITTLE ROCK:
People.
WICHITA marches angrily up a CITY STREET, past some rotting
CORPSES, followed by COLUMBUS, TALLAHASSEE, and LITTLE ROCK.
COLUMBUS:
I’m just saying, she’s right.
We’ve been wandering around, just
the 4 of us, for what, a month? We
need to think about our future.
Humanity’s future. And there is no *
future without people. *
WICHITA:
Yeah, well, we’ve got a saying.
(nudges Little Rock)
Tell him. Go on.
LITTLE ROCK:
(very reluctant)
People suck.
WICHITA:
People. Suck. What’s so great
about people? They’re responsible
for everything bad that’s ever
happened to anyone.
