Miss Meadows Page #5

Synopsis: Prim schoolteacher Miss Meadows (Katie Holmes) is not entirely what she appears. Well-mannered, sweet, and caring, yes, but underneath the candy-sweet exterior hides the soul of a vigilante, taking it upon herself to right the wrongs in this cruel world by whatever means necessary. Things get complicated, however, when Miss Meadows gets romantically entangled with the town sheriff (James Badge Dale) and her steadfast moral compass is thrown off, begging the question: "Who is the real Miss Meadows and what is she hiding?"

Sheriff,

there are certain things

that a lady doesn't... tell a gentleman.

You do have manners.

Don't you, Miss Meadows?

What would the world be without them?

We'll never forget you, Mrs. Dodd!

She's an angel up there now. Isn't she?

Yes, she certainly is.

Would you be our teacher for the rest

of the year, Miss Meadows?

- Oh, no, I'm just your substitute.

- Why don't you stay?

Can we have our snack now?

Yes.

I think that we all have earned a treat.

I'm gonna go get us some hot dogs.

You guys stay with Miss Katherine.

Play nicely. I expect good manners.

Hi, I'd like to order

16 Top Dogs, please.

Hello.

I want to die.

- I think you should.

- What?

You're of no use to society.

You'll waste innocent taxpayers' dollars,

abuse the weak legal system

and enter a cowardly plea of insanity

to a morally bankrupt

defence attorney. For what?

Oh, and once incarcerated, you're gonna cost

taxpayers approximately $47,000 per year.

So you know what? Make sure you point the

barrel of the gun to the back of the throat.

- I think I've changed my mind.

- That is so not an option.

- Never fear, Miss Meadows is here.

- Where's our hot dogs?

Oh, well, Top Dog is experiencing

some unforeseen problems

and when it does, it's important

to have another plan to fall back on.

You know, when one path is blocked,

we simply walk down another path. Right?

- Yes.

- And that's what hope is.

Hope is usually...

right around the corner. Just like that

ice cream truck. Ice cream for everyone!

- Hey, you.

- Hi.

What kind of flavour are you gonna get?

Same kind as you, Miss Meadows.

Miss Meadows, when I grow up,

I want to be just like you.

- Please don't say that, sweetheart.

- Why not?

Well, because you should aspire

to be your own individual.

You know, grow up

and have your own unique traits.

And secret ways, too?

- Pardon me?

- I can keep a secret, Miss Meadows.

But children shouldn't have secrets.

And they shouldn't keep them.

But you spilled something on your dress.

What?

But you spilled something

on your dress, Miss Meadows.

I guess I did.

I dislike that very much.

How about we get some ice cream?

Miss Meadows needs

some ice cream right now.

- Yay!

- Yeah, let's do it.

- What's his name?

- Frank.

- Hi, Frankie.

- I said his name is Frank.

Children, we mustn't approach animals

that we don't know. Come on.

- Come on, come on, come on.

- Always let them come to you.

Always let them come to you.

- Mike.

- Yo.

- Heads up.

- What?

Nice catch.

Hey listen, we've been compiling the case

information from the other jurisdictions

and we've got a composite

on the vigilante.

And it looks like some kind of a...
