Chasing Liberty

Synopsis: Anna Foster has never had an ordinary life. At eighteen years old, she is the most protected girl in America; she is the First Daughter. Frustrated with her overprotective father, the President of the United States of America, Anna makes a deal with him: only two agents are allowed to guard her while she attends a concert in Prague. When her father backs out of his promise, Anna flies into a temper and goes on the run with Ben Calder, a handsome photographer she runs into outside of the music club. They travel together with the intention of going to the Love Parade in Berlin. Anna hasn't told Ben who she is but more importantly, Ben hasn't told her who he is. Under the orders of Anna's father, Ben is supposed to keep an eye on the rebellious girl but falling in love with her wasn't something he expected to do. Romance blossoms between the wild, sassy Anna and the cool, distant Ben as they backpack through Europe. Problem is, when it is time to go back and Anna finds out about Ben, what

Of course you can kiss me.

Of course you can kiss me.

Of course you can kiss me.

You can kiss me.

-ldentification, please.

-Hi. Grant Hillman.

-That's H-l--

-Just the lD, please.

l'm here to pick up....

Okay.

-Grant Hillman picking up Liberty.

-He's clear.

lt's not often you come here for a date.

Maybe when Clinton was in office.

Would you please get out the car?

That was a joke.

Seriously, how many guns

are pointed at me right now?

l'll need those flowers too.

Hi, Grant.

Thank you, Mark.

These were for you.

They would have impressed you.

No, no, no. They still do.

They died for their country.

-Do you wanna get out of here?

-More than you know.

Alone at last.

All agents are in position. lf possible,

can you walk me out a latte? lced, soy.

l am so glad you finally asked me out.

lt wasn't that hard, was it?

Come on, l'm easy. l'm--

Okay, l'm not really easy, but--

l'll shut up, because

l don't know what l'm saying.

l have wanted to ask you out

for a long time.

-But l was a little intimidated.

-Because of my father?

No, because you're easy.

l'm just going off what you said.

Looks like Liberty found herself

a good one this time.

l hate first dates. Too painful.

-For you or the girl?

-All l want is to love and be loved, Morales.

-Hi.

-Hi.

Would you like to take a picture?

-That would be great.

-Okay. Come here.

-Go.

-You can stand here.

We're visiting from Florida.

l voted for your father.

My husband didn't,

but we split up...

...but not because of that!

There were other things too.

But l got the girls!

Lilly, get over there.

Come here. Here we go. Stand here.

Thanks.

-Oh, that's great. Thank you.

-You're so welcome.

-Girls. Come on.

-Have fun. Enjoy Washington.

Thank you.

-ls that Anna Foster?

-How can you stand to have people...

-...staring at you all the time?

-lt's part of the job description.

After six years in the White House...

...and eight as the governor's daughter,

l don't really know anything else.

l think you'd get all this attention

if you weren't the first daughter.

Yeah.

You look good in that blouse.

You should wear that more often.

Actually, it's a sweater.

Sweater, blouse, you wear it well.

Take a compliment.

-Have you heard from Rhode lsland?

-l got in.

-Congratulations. l knew you would.

-My parents are pushing premed.

l think parents want you to appreciate

the good things in life, but not do them.

-They want you to see art....

-We got something at 9:00.

--but not make art. They want you

to have love, find love and value love...

...but not make love, ever.

Thought l'd make this night

more memorable.

He's reaching. Go!

-What are you guys doing?

-Wait, these are my friends.

-You don't know what you're doing!

-Get off me!

This street is off-limits.

lt's only a camera.

Okay, folks, it's over.

Clear the street.

-l'm so sorry.

-l should wait for them.

No, come on, it's still early.

We could go catch a movie or something.

Anna...

...you are really great.

But this is just way

too out of control for me.

l'm sorry.

Of course you can kiss me.

Weiss to Control.

Returning home with Liberty.

Good night.

-Poor kid.

-All right, well, at least she's home safe.

How about l get you home safe?

-How about l call you when l get there?

-Sure.

-You're not gonna call me, are you?

-No.

lt's out of my way, anyway!

-How was the date?

-l need to talk to him.

-l can't let you in there, Anna.

-Anna, wait.

-Go on.

-l'm not going.

Dad.

Way to go. l can't believe

you had that restaurant swarming...

...with your secret servants.

You ruined my date!

And now l'm gonna die

before l ever get to third base.

l mean second base.

Anna?

-Talk to you about this later.

-No. No, stay.

Pull up a chair. We're just discussing

the G8 Summit in Prague.

How to persuade the EU to adopt our plan

to give humanitarian aid...

...and medical technology

to developing nations.

But you had a bad date...

-...so we should probably focus on that.

-No, l'm so sorry to have interrupted.

Excuse me.

So third base is what again?

-l always thought it was below the waist.

-l don't remember, sir.

Maybe that was just cheerleaders.

Glad l asked.

Anna...

...l know that dating is

a little more difficult for you.

Try ''impossible.''

And you know that

the extra security is necessary.

They ruined her date.

She really likes this boy.

Oh, okay.

A boy who ranks 24th in his class,

plays Xbox two hours a day...

-...and wants to go to art school.

-Who told you that?

-Phil.

-Okay, l don't want some guy...

...who wears his sunglasses

inside at night-- Sorry, Phil.

Listening in on my dinner dates.

That is such a total abuse of power.

l am 1 8 years old and l wanna go out

on a date without guys in bad suits--

Sorry, Harper. Hiding behind every tree.

Nothing is private.

Sweetie, l am just trying to protect you.

Dad, l'm not that 1 2-year-old girl who would

only dance with you at your inaugural ball.

You're right.

Excuse me, sir.

lt's the vice president on the phone.

He says it's urgent.

Dad. You can make it up to me

when we're in Prague.

We'll see.

-Remember Gabrielle Le Clerc?

-French ambassador's daughter.

She'll be in Prague and she's invited

me to this concert. And l wanna go.

Yes, Gabrielle. Pierre's little girl.

lt's all right, l suppose.

Without the army. One agent.

Thank you, Mom. Yeah, one agent.
