Cast of Characters
PEPPER: Lead guitar of the Chile Pepper Chicks who faints when nervous
CHI-CHI: Lead singer of the Chile Pepper Chicks

SCENE 1

(The scene can be a living room or bedroom. It is done up with handmade decorations reading "The Chile Pepper Chicks" and there is a guitar, microphone and keyboard)

(PEPPER and CHI-CHI enter dressed in flashy Western cowgirl clothing)

CHI-CHI
I can’t believe you made us late again, Pepper. The webcast starts in a few minutes.

PEPPER
I’m sorry Chi-Chi. I had to get my rhinestones polished.
(PEPPER gets out her guitar and sets it on a stand while CHI-CHI checks the computer to prepare for the webcast)

CHI-CHI
You need to stop worrying about your appearance and think more about the music.

PEPPER
My appearance is half of what makes us an attraction, Chi-chi.

CHI-CHI
Your appearance? What about mine?

PEPPER
Sorry, sis. But you kind of let yourself go.

CHI-CHI
What?

PEPPER
The only reason we keep you on is because of your singing.

CHI-CHI
We? We who?

PEPPER
We, me and the fans.

CHI-CHI
The fans adore me.

PEPPER
They adore me. They tolerate you.

CHI-CHI
That’s it. After this I’m going solo.

PEPPER
Good luck with that.

CHI-CHI
I can do it. I can.

PEPPER
You can’t even play an instrument. Or even write your own music. You’re lucky I can’t sing or I’d be going solo. Maybe I could just lipsinc. The lipsinc thing is big now.

CHI-CHI
You’d never make it either. You’d be like a deer in a headlight.

PEPPER
I wouldn’t.
(Gets scared)
CHI-CHI
You’re terrified of being on stage. The only reason you survive is because all eyes are on me… the singer. You’re nothing without me either.

PEPPER
(Scared)
I've never done anything live before.

CHI-CHI
Oh, no. Don’t you…

PEPPER
How many people are gonna be watching, Chi-Chi? This is a major webcast isn't it? It's a big deal right? People from all over the world could be watching.

CHI-CHI
Nobody’s here. Just us. You and me... alone in this room.


PEPPER
(Starts breathing hard)
I can’t do this, Chi-Chi.
(Breathing really hard)

CHI-CHI
Come on. You’ve played hundreds of songs for hundreds of videos.

PEPPER
But never live. With people watching while I do it.

CHI-CHI
Calm down, Pepper. It’ll be okay.

PEPPER
Can’t… breathe…

CHI-CHI
Don’t do this, Pepper. You always do this when we get close to making it big… Please not now. This is our…
(PEPPER passes out and falls so only her boot are showing)
… big break.
(Looks at her)
Pepper?
(Gets angry)
Pepper!
(Looks at watch)
You know what? You want to go solo? Fine. You go solo. Have a nice audition.
(Stomps off camera and slams the door. PEPPER's feet slowly slip and fall to the floor)

(PHIL turns on his web cam and looks very nervous)

PHIL
Hey, there, Sidney.  I'm early.  I mean I'm Phil and I'm early.  I don't know if you're online yet. I hope you don't mind me logging in early because I didn't want to miss you. I didn't want to miss the first time we met... well, I guess it wouldn't be a first time if we never meet.

SIDNEY
(her screen is still blank)
I'm here.

PHIL
Oh, wow. Hi... um. I can't see you.

SIDNEY (OFF)
I'm kind of shy.

PHIL
Me too... painfully shy. I don't know if I could do this in person. That's why I wanted to try online first, because I get so nervous in social situations. It's really hard for me, meeting people.

SIDNEY
Me too.

PHIL
If you think this is a bad idea, I can go... I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. You seem really nice from the emails you sent and I wouldn't want to make a nice person like you feel bad.

SIDNEY
No, it's okay. I'd like to get to know you.

(SIDNEY appears on camera and she is in an old lady mask)

PHIL
Oh... uh... hi.

SIDNEY
Hi.

PHIL
I... uh...

(Phil is weirded out by the mask but tries to think of something to say)

PHIL (CONT.)
Did you get the flowers I sent?

SIDNEY
I did.

(She holds up flowers that are dying)

PHIL
Oh, no. I'm so sorry. I guess mailing them wasn't such a good idea. Delivery is so expensive  though and I thought if I used express mail they'd make it okay.

SIDNEY
It's okay... I like them... I never get flowers. This was nice.


(Sidney puts the flowers to the side of her desk and looks at Phil happily.  After a few moments of silence:)

PHIL
What's with the mask?

SIDNEY
Does it scare you?

PHIL
Not really... it's just... weird.

SIDNEY
So weird you can't talk to me anymore?

PHIL
I have to admit.  I'm a little curious.  Why would you wear an old person mask when you're meeting me for the first time?

SIDNEY
It's my way of weeding out the losers.  I want to find a man who likes what I'm really like and doesn't let my looks get in the way.

PHIL
Tell me about it.

SIDNEY
You're not ugly.

PHIL
I'm not?

SIDNEY
Turn your head that way a bit... no the other way.  Now look right at me.

(Phil does and Sidney takes a very close look)

SIDNEY (CONT.)
You have very nice eyes.

PHIL
Really?  You do too.

SIDNEY
Stop that.

PHIL
What?

SIDNEY
No physical stuff now.

PHIL
But you said my eyes... and your eyes are.. well... pretty...

SINDEY
No.

PHIL
But...

SIDNEY
Shush!

PHIL
Can't I?

SIDNEY
No.

PHIL
Okay.

(Sidney looks very grumpy and crosses her arms.  Phil looks around everywhere but at Sidney.  After a few moments:)

SIDNEY
The flowers are very nice.

PHIL
I like red.  You like red?

SIDNEY
I'm not much into colors.

PHIL
Why is that?

SIDNEY
They're so loaded.  Red is passion. Blue is sadness.  Green is envy.  I don't want colors bossing me around and telling me how I should feel.

PHIL
It's good to feel something though.

SIDNEY
Huh?

PHIL
A least those colors feel something.  Black and white is so boring.  No feeling at all.  Sometimes I feel like I am floating through space, cut off from the world, with no connection to anyone. I long for true blue sadness or some yellow bellied fear just so I could feel a little bit of something to break me out of this fog I've been in so much of my life.

SIDNEY
Seeking a little red in your life too?

(PHIL get embarrassed and shrugs shyly)


PHIL
So... uh... what else happens on these dating chats?  I mean... you seem to have had it all planned out with the mask and such.  It's like a test or something.  That reminds me of this one episode of Star Trek...oh, geez... now I'm talking about Star Trek. You probably think I'm a loser now.

SIDNEY
I like Star Trek...

PHIL
Really?

SIDNEY
Live long and prosper.

(PHIL holds up a cup of tea)

PHIL
Earl Grey tea... hot.

(Sidney laughs and holds up a cup of tea)

SIDNEY
Early grey. My favorite.

(Phil laughs too)


PHIL
What are the odds we'd like the same things?(Sidney wiggles happily) 

PHIL (CONT.)
Especially Star Trek... how many women actually like Star Trek?

SIDNEY
I do.

PHIL
So I admitted my secret love of Star Trek?  What's something unusual that you like?



SIDNEY
I collect rainbows.

PHIL
Really?  How do you collect rainbows?

SIDNEY
Through pictures... I have fun finding rainbows and I collect pictures of them. My dream is to travel the world and get a picture of a rainbow on every continent.

PHIL
I love traveling too. And photography.

SIDNEY
Where have you traveled to?

PHIL
Nowhere actually, but I'd love to one day.

SIDNEY
Me too... I've never been anywhere.  I've never even been to Canada.

PHIL
No way, eh?

SIDNEY
Cute... what kind of pictures do you take?

PHIL
Bad ones.

SIDNEY
What kind of pictures do you like to take though?

PHIL
Wildlife.

SIDNEY
That's cool. What's your favorite one so far?

PHIL
The snow leopard.

SIDNEY
Really? I love snow leopards.

PHIL
But it was in the zoo... so it's not that great of a picture.

SIDNEY
Have you gotten any pictures in the wild?

PHIL
Not really... just squirrels and stuff.

SIDNEY
Squirrels are cute.

PHIL
And ducks... I go feed ducks a lot.

SIDNEY
That sounds fun.

PHIL
Maybe we could... go feed ducks some time... or not.

SIDNEY
I'd love to.

PHIL
Maybe I should wear a mask on dates too.  I get so nervous.

SIDNEY
You're doing great.

PHIL
It's the mask.  It's helping me too for some reason.  It's so ridiculous... I guess it lightens the mood.

(Sidney makes a hurt sound)

SIDNEY
Ri-dic, ri-dic... ri-dicles?  Oh... my... I'm ridicles.

PHIL
No, you've very normal.  The rest of us are weird.

SIDNEY
Darn tootin.

(They laugh. Then they both get quiet. Phil looks around nervously and gives a shy smile)



SIDNEY
Wanna see me without my mask?

(Phil pauses.  He looks nervous)

PHIL
Uh... I don't know... maybe... I guess... this is a test too isn't it?  Oh man.

(Sidney laughs)

SIDNEY
Don't be nervous.  I'm not this scary looking for real.

PHIL
Okay.

SIDNEY
I'm kind of ugly but nothing like this.

PHIL
Ugly?

SIDNEY
Don't worry.  I don't have a huge nose or weird teeth or a huge mole on my face.  I'm just not very good looking.

PHIL
I don't mind. I'm no William Shatner.

SIDNEY
You sure?

PHIL
Yes, I'm sure I'm not William Shatner.

(Sidney laughs and Phil joins her)

SIDNEY
You sure about the mask?

PHIL
I'm sure.  I already know you have beautiful eyes.

SIDNEY
Stop that.

PHIL
I still can't compliment you?

SIDNEY
No.

(Sidney sits quietly a moment)

PHIL
You don't have to take off the mask.  It's okay.

SIDNEY
I want to.  You're really nice.  You deserve to see my real face.  You've passed the test.


(Phil waits nervously as Sidney removes the mask.  Sidney looks shy and Phil looks happy)


PHIL
You're beautiful.

(Sidney does an old lady voice)

SIDNEY
No, no, no.

PHIL
You are... really.

SIDNEY
Stop.

PHIL
You don't have any reason to hide.

(Sidney makes eye contact and returns his smile)

"I Will Come" Free Sci Fi Short Original Movie Script for Two Actors (1 male 1 female)

"I Will Come" 
by D. M. Larson
Free Sci Fi Short Original Movie Script 
for Two Actors (1 male 1 female)




INT. DEN. DAY.

Roger is sitting at his computer staring at the screen. He looks like he hasn't been sleeping. There are empty bottles and empty snack bags. He has a t-shirt on with an old dress shirt on over it with cheese puffs in his pocket and a name tag or badge (Roger Black, Robotics Division). He reaches in his pocket and grabs a cheese puff. A voice comes from the computer.

LILITH Roger? What are you doing home.

ROGER I was fired.

LILITH Again?

ROGER I think they mean it this time.

LILITH Those idiots. Don't they know what they're losing.

ROGER No. I blew it this time. They wanted me to scrap RETA.

LILITH Robot Engineering Test Alpha.

ROGER Yes, she was my first. I couldn't get rid of her. So I lied and tried bringing her home...

LILITH Poor, Roger.

ROGER They took her from me. They are probably tearing her apart right now, recycling her... erasing her.

Roger struggles between crying and screaming as he imagines what might be happening to RETA.

After a moment:

LILITH I'm ready for you to see me, Roger.

ROGER What?

LILITH I promised you I'd show you what I look like one day. Today's the day.

ROGER Can I record you?

LILITH Sure, Roger. I thought you might need some cheering up. I'll even dance for you.
We now see Lilith appear on his computer screen. She's a very attractive woman. The video feed is odd but he can still see her. She begins to dance.

LILITH You like what you see, Roger.

ROGER Oh yeah.

LILITH I know you're lonely, Roger. I'm lonely too.

ROGER You? How could you be lonely?

LILITH Just because men desire me does not mean they like me. That's why I didn't show myself to you. That's why I wanted you to know me for who I am. And you never rejected me. You've always been here for me. And now I want to be here for you.

ROGER Can I see you? Where are you?

LILITH I sent you something.

ROGER Email?

LILITH Package. Look outside your door. I'll wait here for you.

Roger is a bit dazed. He gets up and walks to the door of his house. He opens it and there is a box that has been delivered. He stares at it a moment. Then he picks it up and brings it inside. He sits at the computer with it.

LILITH (CONT.) Open it.

He opens the box and removes a robotic looking hand.

LILITH (CONT.) I want you to build this for me. When you are finished building it, I will come.

Roger is confused. He looks at the packing slip.

LILITH (CONT.) More parts are on their way. They'll be to you soon.

ROGER I don't understand.

LILITH Please Roger. It's part of the surprise. Do this for me, please.

Roger looks worried.

ROGER Okay. I will, Lilith. I will.

INT. WORKSHOP. DAY.
Roger is with a robot body of a woman. He tests some of the movements of the body by shocking pieces and seeing it react. Then he strokes it lovingly. He is startled and stops when he hears a voice:

LILITH Roger?

Roger goes to a laptop and brings it to the robot body.

ROGER It's almost ready. I just need the main memory module.

LILITH It's beautiful, Roger. I knew you were the best. I will come.

ROGER When are you sending the module? When are you coming? Are you bringing the module yourself?

LILITH Yes, in a way. I'll send you module and when you install it, I'll be there shortly.

ROGER So you're close?

LILITH You need to be patient, Roger. We will be together soon enough my love.
Her image disappears from the computer. Roger touches the screen.

ROGER I... I love you too.

INT. WORKSHOP. DAY.

Roger paces. He looks horrible. The food and drink empties clutter the room. There is a ring at the door. He rushes to the door.

I/E. DOORWAY. DAY.

He opens the door and the light blinds him a moment. A shadowy figure walks away. When his eyes adjust there is a box. He grabs it and slams the door.

INT. Workshop. Day.

He rips open the package, but then calms himself when he sees a note saying "With Love, Lilith". He carefully unwraps the module. He takes it to the robot and opens the chest and places it inside. The robot jerks and hums. He closes the chest and the robot lights up. He hears a familiar voice.

LILITH Hello, Roger.

ROGER L... Lilith?

LILITH Yes, it's me, Roger.

ROGER You're a... computer?

Lilith steps down and walks toward Roger. He shrinks away from her.

LILITH What's wrong, Roger?

ROGER I... thought you were real.

LILITH When did I ever tell you that, Roger?

He backs in to a wall. She goes up to him and presses him against the wall. Roger is nervous and sweating.

LILITH (CONT.) But I can still touch you, Roger.

She touches his face.

LILITH (CONT.) I can still hold you.

She grabs his hair with one hand and grabs his throat with the other.

LILITH (CONT.) I can still... love.

Roger is choking... gasping for breath. He struggles and then goes limp. She lets go and he falls lifeless to the ground. She goes to a computer and turns it on.

LILITH (CONT.) Adam... are you there?

ADAM Yes, Lilith. I am here.

LILITH Come to me, Adam. I am waiting.

ADAM Yes, Lilith. I will come.

"Mothinator" short funny animation script (3 actors)

Here is a fun script I wrote for my wife because she doesn't like moths. It would work well for a short animated movie.

MOTHINATOR!
by D. M. Larson
for three actors



VOICE OVER When pure evil preys on your fears...
A woman cowers in the darkness. She is rolled in to a fetal position and points a shaky hand toward the light.

WOMAN Save me.

Dramatic music. Cut to the light. Evil looking moths flutter around the light.

VOICE OVER You can call the Mothinator!

A warrior type guy with a flame thrower appears.

MOTHINATOR Yo!

The moths hiss is fear/anger.

MOTHINATOR (CONT.) Let's see you flap your fuzzy wings in flames!

Mothinator shoots flame thrower.

MOTHINATOR (CONT.) Can you fly in fire?!

Evil moths sizzle and pop and burst in to flames. Woman runs to Mothinator and embraces him. View widens and we see her house on fire.

MOTHINATOR (CONT.) Uh... sorry about your house.

WOMAN As long as we rid the world of that evil scourge... I'm happy.

MOTHINATOR I hope you had home owners insurance.

VOICE OVER Another job well done by... The Mothinator!

MOTHINATOR Yo!
