Zombie Shark Page #3

---

How many times have I told

you to stay away from

behind the counter.

And if it happens again,

I'm calling the sheriff.

( laughing )

Sorry about that!

Homeless man,

always coming in here.

Hey, look, I wanna apologize

for keeping you all waiting.

I had breakfast burritos

this morning.

And I'll tell one thing,

they gave me the squirts.

( laughs )

Anyway!

What can I do for you kids?

Um, I'm Jenner Branton.

Oh! Mr. Branton! Of course.

Um...

( clearing his throat )

Welcome to Red Plum Island

where all your dreams

come true. ( solemn )

My name is Lester and I'm here

to attend to your every need.

( chuckles ) If you could just

get your signature, here.

I'll get your keys.

Thank you so much.

We saw your cabins.

Well, there'll be more cabins

soon.

Still working on expanding

the guest accommodation.

What did you say

your name was?

- Lester.

- Lester, nice to meet you.

Hey, so... like, what is there

to do around here?

Oh, well, um...

We have swimming...

boating, fishing, parasailing,

but only on Saturdays.

There are trails that go deep

into the woods...

that are perfect for hiking.

And we have

a brand new Redbox kiosk...

outside of here,

if you want to watch a movie.

And it's the only one

on the island.

I'm pretty proud of that.

And of course,

after the sun goes down,

I do a little dinner show

over in our rec room.

Well, I grill, make cocktails...

I tell you, it gets

pretty wild up in there.

Cocktails? Do you have a bar?

Do we have a bar?

( laughing )

The bar!

Jenner:
Cool!

Um... Where's the bartender?

At your service!

( laughing )

This is perfect, Lester.

Thank you.

OK. Well, I'm gonna head

to the beach.

It's a little cold outside

to be tanning.

If the sun's out,

I'm out!

This body wasn't meant

for covering, anyway.

She does have two points.

So... I'll see you guys later.

Sophie:
Hey, Lester...

What's that little boat

at the pier down the beach?

We saw it when we came in.

Oh! You must be talking

about the base.

You know, it's not sure

what went on over there...

but rumor has it they were doing

lots of testing...

developing chemical warfare...

new kind of mustard gas

or something, I don't know.

They closed down in the 70s.

You know,

there are old stories...

about how the south would

fight off the sharks that

the current would bring down.

Wait... Sharks?

Well, sure!

In some of those old stories

we were nicknamed Shark Island.

Wow! That doesn't sound

ominous, at all.

Look, I've lived here my whole

life, and I've never seen

a shark.

So trust me, you have nothing

to worry about.

Man:

Check that out.

Should we go over?

What do you think?
