Mojave Moon Page #3

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.

- It's very unusual.

You can see everything up here.

The whole desert.

You wanna dance, Al?

Nah.

It's only a dance, Al.

When you came in tonight, it was like someone had been

showing me pictures of you for 20 years.

And finally there you were.

But I wasn't sure.

You know when I knew?

No. When?

When you stood up to Boyd

after he threw the cup.

The way you looked at him

with all that dignity.

That's it! I'm gonna go now.

Like no one should ever sink so low

in your presence. That's when I knew.

Whoo!

Even up here is hot tonight!

I think I'm gonna sleep up here tonight!

- You like sleep under the stars?

- I don't think Boyd would like that.

You got that right, Mr.!

He'll be back tonight.

No, he won't. Not tonight.

- Maybe the car would start now.

- Good luck.

Thanks.

Thanks for everything.

What am I doing?

Julie?

Julie?

Hi.

Oh, my god!

Don't move, it's Boyd!

What?

He's leaving. I don't think

he knows we're up here.

My car?

What about my car?

Oh yeah.

Maybe it was the AAA guy?

I don't think so.

I better check.

I'll go with you.

Coast is clear.

- Night.

- Night.

- Yeah, better try the car.

- Yeah.

Curse is lifted!

Sh*t!

Hey!

Hey!

You're OK?

Oh, God!

You got a problem here, sir?

Oh, no, sir. No problem.

Flat tire... that's all.

New car, premium tires. What luck, eh?

There it is!

Well...

At least they're totally flat on the bottom!

- Rest of the tire is perfect!

- Good as new!

You're right!

Well, you know, give you a hand with

the spare if you just open the trunk.

No, actually there's nothing in there.

What I mean is... there's something

in there. But... not the share.

Can you imagine?

See, the fact is, I was looking for my spare,

somebody must have stolen the damn thing.

Can you believe that?

Just open the trunk, sir.

Yes, sir.

I haven't had the trunk key.

And the switch, eh... you know the switch that opens it,

doesn't always work.

So... may not open.

Sir, I'm gonna need to see your license

and vehicle registration.

That's no problem.

Yes, sir. To the glove box, OK?

Put my hands in... OK?

Officer, there's been a accident

like ten miles back near [...], man!

It's bad! Car has flipped over

and burning!

Thank you!

You stay here, I'll be back!

Yes, sir!

Hustle up, man! I think the dude

cut his head off or something, man!

How you're doing?

I had a flat.

Could you help me out?

Yeah? Probably, yeah.

Could you help me out now?

I'm not open yet!

Please...

I'm stuck here.

I... I gonna get home.

Ah, man!

Well, somewhere in all this sh*t

I got an English whitewall.

60,000-mile warranty.

It's gonna cost 375,

do you want it?

Do you accept credit cards?

Sometimes... we do.
