My Town Page #4

Synopsis: Wheelerville, Ohio, is a small town where people seeking to start new lives can get that chance. The idea came from Lucas Wheeler, the banker and descendant of the town's founder, and the unsold series was to relate incidents in the lives of the people who attempt to rebuild their lives as seen through the eyes of Amber Wheeler, Lucas's pretty granddaughter.

(LAUGHS)

Or any of the other prehistoric films they used last year.

What we will be doing is, uh...

Talking.

About our bodies.

How they work.

About how they're changing.

About our reproductive system.

How it works.

About our feelings and how they relate to our bodies.

We're gonna talk about a lot of things,

but most importantly,

we're gonna talk honestly.

Now...

What should we talk about first?

(LAUGHING) Oh, come on.

Surely, there must be something on somebody's mind.

Mary Lynn, what would you like to talk about?

Getting a refund on my book.

(STUDENTS LAUGHING)

He's gotta be a spy.

You're due for a brain scan real soon.

He's supposed to be a mechanic,

but he never works on cars.

He also has a radio in his storm cellar

where he goes every morning and every night.

Where he talks to Moscow.

That's in Russia!

And what does he tell Russia?

His contact in the government is giving him information.

He's a spy! A Russian spy.

What would a spy be doing in Wheelerville?

What am I doing in Wheelerville?

You know, for someone who...

Who knows it all, you don't know a whole lot.

Spies all over the place!

That's a fact!

So what if he is?

Nobody'd believe us anyway.

That's why we need evidence.

Like what?

Like the letter from the government.

Stealing mail's a federal offense!

You wanna fry?

We gotta get that letter!

(SIGHS)

Oh, thanks. I'm starv...

Cynthia!

Relax!

The egg salad walked out with the tuna melt

20 minutes ago.

Why?

Oh, something about anything over three hours for lunch and they get docked.

What are you doing in here?

I'm cooking, Cynthia!

That's the way you wanted it, remember?

I may not be fast, but at least I'm good.

Oh, and all four customers who waited really appreciate it, Hal.

What do I tell Lucas about his order?

You didn't tell me Lucas was here.

I tried to, Hal.

You said you didn't wanna be disturbed.

You said if you could only have your creative space

something magical might happen.

Well, you were right, Hal.

I don't know how you did it,

but you made all the customers disappear.

Okay, and do it exactly the way we rehearsed.

Fall out of the tree and pretend you broke your leg.

Now scream real good.

This guy's a mental case and I'm listening to him.

My leg! Somebody!

Help me!

Ow, my leg! Somebody! My leg!

Ow, my leg! Somebody, please!

Slovak.

BILLY:
Help me!

Yeah. Oh, my leg!

My leg! Ow!

Ow!

Ow!

Mmm, thank you.

Amber, sit down.

I just got off the phone with a very angry Fletcher Mays.

What went on in health class today?

Nothing.

Nothing?

We talked about biology.

Yeah?

And how it relates to our bodies.

Right.

And how it relates to sex.

Sex?

Now, if you expect me to be shocked,
