Wait until they find out the cute side-kick doesn’t survive...

PANEL
Kim is unseen but yelling in from off camera. Essie and Cory are hiding behind Concessions, Fox is looking alert. Tristan is relaxed.
TRISTAN
It can’t be that bad. I love kids, and I’ve got a whole bundle of siblings. Trust me.
KIM
SCHOOL BUS!

PANEL
Tristan turning towards the entrance as the first couple kids start running in. Fox braces. Essie and Cory, still hiding, just shift focus.
TRISTAN
Aaw. They’re so-

PANEL
Most of the panel obscured by a dust cloud. Just enough background to see that the view hasn’t shifted. Fox partially visible still standing. Kids boxes flying through the air.

PANEL
Tristan mangled on the floor. Cory is hiding against the wall. Essie is standing behind concessions, hair still swept to one side. Fox, now in tatters, scans an adults phone with a little beep, still 1000yd stare.
???
Thank you for being so accommodating.
FOX
I hope you enjoy the film.
TRISTAN
-painful.

Stampede

Ok, so the stampede might be a bit of an exaggeration, but if you’ve never had to hide behind a wall of kids-boxes then count yourself lucky. 

My first week working at a movie theater I started on a Wednesday, got about a half days training on concessions… Then came in the next day for the opening of a Harry Potter move. There were lines, literally, out the theater down the block, and around the corner. 

A couple cameos in this one. Some friends from over in the Hey Kitty world. I’ve missed Jei and Amber!
