Ain't you listening? YOU FLUNKED<br />

THE DAMN....<br />

In response to the sudden jolt, Rose Rose slams the wheel and the<br />

Caddie leaves the road, cuts across the sidewalk, scattering people left and<br />

right. She creams a couple of parking meters and a mail box. She trys to<br />

get it off the sidewalk and the car spins around until it now faces the<br />

truck that is bearing down on it.<br />

TATERS writes on the clipboard again. He looks up and sees the<br />

truck coming straight for them. He ducks. At the last minute, the truck<br />

Becoming dizzy, he falls out of the back of the pickup truck.<br />

TATERS has his feet braced against the door frame, fighting<br />

centrifugal force which threatens to throw him out the door he’s still<br />
