The Bouncing Bride - Christoph Endres

I got sizable ears. Sass me, I just got to
take off more points. Bad language don't help
your cause atall. Two points off. You near
flunk already and we ain't even out of the
parking lot. I also gotta take off a point,
for a sub-standard vehicle. No seat belts.
The men in the car beside Jack'S pickup jump out of their car, guns
ready. Jack sensing the movement, turns to look and his mouth.
drops open. They’re all aiming at Rose Rose.
TATERS HALLAM
Ok, Missy. You just ease her out
into traffic. Back out slow now.
Rose Rose nods, frowning with intense concentration. She is
determined not to screw up. But already tell tale signs of panic are
evident in her.
Rose Rose, true to form, hits the gas pedal too hard and the car goes
zooming backwards just as the men from the car open fire. Bullet holes
appear in the side of the car and TATER'S hat is shot off his head.
The sudden acceleration spoiled the gun men's aim. Rose Rose
turns and sees the men shooting at her.
It is the last straw. It sends her into a full fledged panic worse than her
first driving attempt at Wal-Mart. She embraces the steering wheel like a
drowning man grabbing onto a life preserver. She turns the wheel frantically
while her foot stays buried on the gas pedal.
Jack, in his truck, is sitting there with his mouth open. He tries to open
his door and get out, but has to duck down as a gunman shoots wildly.
The bullet goes through both windows of Jack'S truck.
The ancient Cadillac careens around the parking lot in a circle, backing up
toward the very people she’s trying to get away from.
TATERS HALLAM
WHAT THE HELL!!!
TATERS is straining his head, trying to peer out and see where they're headed.
His hand briefly brushes the spot on his head where his hat used to be. He's not
very bright and has no idea what's happening. His hat is in ROSE'S lap.
