INT. OFFICE<br />

Rooney turns to the monitor. He reads off the screen.<br />

ROONEY<br />

I have it right here in front of me.<br />

He's missed...<br />

He looks closer at the screen.<br />

INT. FERRIS' ROOM<br />

<strong>Ferris</strong> is at his Macintosh <strong>com</strong>puter. He has his record up on<br />

the screen.<br />

INT. JOYCE'S OFFICE<br />

FERRIS<br />

I wanted a car. I got a <strong>com</strong>puter.<br />

How's that for being born under a<br />

bad sign?<br />

She's still on the phone with Rooney.<br />

JOYCE<br />

I can give you every assurance that<br />

<strong>Ferris</strong> is home and that he is, in<br />

fact, very ill. I debated whether or<br />

not I should even leave him. I can<br />

appreciate that at this time of year<br />

children are prone to taking the day<br />

off, but in <strong>Ferris</strong>' case, he's truly<br />

a very sick boy.<br />

INT. FERRIS' BEDROOM<br />

MUSIC BLASTS. SOLO GUITAR.<br />

CU. SPEAKER<br />

The grille cloth is throbbing.<br />

CU. LED METERS<br />

The meters on the amplifier are totally in the danger zone.<br />

CU. TV MONITOR<br />

We see <strong>Ferris</strong> in his room with a guitar around his neck.<br />

He's playing.<br />

CU. VIDEO CAMERA<br />

A home video camera is capturing <strong>Ferris</strong> on tape.
