Things Never Change/Transcript

Scene 1: The trap
(Calvin exits the school bus.)

Calvin: Ugh, what a day. I feel like I've been hit by a semi truck.

(Calvin opens the door, and Hobbes pounces.)

Calvin: I mean, now I feel like it.

Hobbes: Always save hyperbole until you need it.

Calvin: Shut up, you hairball. I had big plans today, and I don't want them ruined.

Hobbes: You wanted to go on a wagon ride?

Calvin: Yes I did. Wait, how did you know?

Hobbes: I have ESP.

Calvin: We've been over this, Hobbes. You do not have ESP.

Hobbes: Or do I?...

Calvin: YOU DON'T HAVE ESP, YOU DINGBELL!

(Calvin storms off into the woods.)

Calvin: Ugh, that tiger is annoying. It's good to have some time to myself.

(Calvin finds a pile of leaves.)

Calvin: What’s this supposed to be? It sure doesn’t look like a normal pile of leaves.

(Calvin steps on the leaves. A click is heard.)

Calvin: That can’t be good.

(a black net appears under the leaves and hoists Calvin up.)

Calvin: GAAH! This must be one of those tiger traps they set around here. I have got to escape somehow!

Scene 2: Hobbes (sorta) lends a helping hand
(Calvin takes a can of tuna and a can opener from his pocket. He then proceeds to drop them on the ground.)

Calvin: This should attract Hobbes over here!

(Cuts to Hobbes sitting in the front yard. He then smells something.)

Hobbes: That smells like TUNA!!!

(Hobbes dashes into the woods and uses the can opener to open the tuna can.)

Hobbes: Oh man, this looks fresh! Thanks, Calvin!

(Hobbes walks off and leaves the can opener behind.)

Calvin: NO! HOBBES, WAIT! GET ME OUT OF HERE! Oh, that dumb feline!

(TIMECARD: three minutes later...)

(Calvin prepares another can of tuna.)

Calvin: Good thing I’m not giving him the can opener this time!

(Hobbes dashes over again.)

Hobbes: YAY MORE TUN-Wait, there is no opener. Calvin, do you have an opener?

(Hobbes pats down Calvin. Calvin screams and ensnares Hobbes in the trap.)

(More coming soon)
