Annie Page #3

Synopsis: Annie is a young, happy foster kid who's also tough enough to make her way on the streets of New York in 2014. Originally left by her parents as a baby with the promise that they'd be back for her someday, it's been a hard knock life ever since with her mean foster mom Miss Hannigan. But everything's about to change when the hard-nosed tycoon and New York mayoral candidate Will Stacks - advised by his brilliant VP, Grace and his shrewd and scheming campaign advisor, Guy - makes a thinly-veiled campaign move and takes her in. Stacks believes he's her guardian angel, but Annie's self-assured nature and bright, sun-will-come-out-tomorrow outlook on life just might mean it's the other way around.

Jab her with a safety pin

'Steada treated,

we get tricked

Send her to the loony bin

'Steada kisses,

we get kicked

Oh, I'm so sorry!

- Toss me the broom!

- Incoming.

Plastic!

Paper! Can!

It's the hard-knock

life for us

Yank the whiskers

from her chin

It's the hard-knock

life for us

Jab her with a safety pin

No one cares for you a bit

Send her to the loony bin

When you're a foster kid!

It's the hard-knock life

I said no singing and dancing!

It's the hard-knock life

The inspector's here.

Here, read a book.

Braid her hair.

Blow on this.

Put this together.

It's a kitty cat.

- What should I do?

- Pray.

I've tried.

It hasn't worked yet.

Okay. Showtime! You guys

act well cared-for.

We love you, Miss Hannigan!

Take it down a thousand.

Nobody's gonna believe that.

Get under here.

Well, hello there.

Are you Colleen Hannigan?

My maiden name. But I'm not married

to it, if you know what I mean.

- No.

- Come on in. The girls are just recreating.

Uh, should we start

here in the bathroom?

Why, Mr. Inspector,

how forward you are.

But I'm right behind you.

- What?

- What?

- No, I'm asking you.

- This way.

Wait, what?

Oh, your arms are so strong!

The dude dropped this.

This has all of our information.

Really?

You're kidding.

Damn. I've been

in a lot of homes.

This says I've been in millions.

That's your Social

Security number, dummy.

What's a scoso curcurity murder?

It's what the government

uses to keep track of us.

Wait. This is what I

need to get my records.

And find my parents.

I'll copy it down.

Plan your exit.

Okay.

You know, people come

for the bathroom,

but they stay for the bedroom.

- What?

- You know it.

Can I go to

the library to study?

Can we talk about this after

the handsome inspector with

no wedding ring is gone?

Okay.

Can I have some floss?

I think I have some nutritious

breakfast stuck in my teeth.

What?

Pretty sure I saw some

in the medicine cabinet.

Oh, right there?

You know, I just remembered.

We're out of floss.

Maybe you wanna pick some up

on your way to the library.

Thank you, Miss Hannigan.

Bye, Mr. Inspector.

Bye, now.

Seems like a great kid.

Yeah, she seems great.

Oh-oh, I know that run.

How much you need, mija?

$43.55.

- By when?

- Now?

Go rob Bank of America.

Here, I'll loan you my mask.

I'll work for it.

Please, Lou.

That face.

Take the expired drinks from the cooler.

Go ahead.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Whoa, what are you doing, girl?

This ain't no Whole Foods.

Don't throw them out.

Change the date.

I believe in hard work.

I don't just

settle for "okay."

"Great" is all I know.

I built my company to

be a worldwide leader.
