    Slush Fund

    Int: Fanlair

    Living room, we see a stack of FREEZY CUPS and FANBOY is lounging against the pileFANBOY:

    Boy these were some gooo-oood frosty freezy-freezes

    CHUM CHUM pops up from the pile at the top slurping loudly

    CHUM CHUM:They sure were

    FANBOY:

    You know what would top this off? A frosty freezy freeze! (stands updramatically)CHUM CHUM:

    Yay! (pause) Wait Fanboy, we cant have any more frosty freezy freezes

    FANBOY:

    Oh Contraire my little buddy, I could drink this magical elixir all day.

    FANBOY strokes a cup lovingly

    CHUM CHUM:

    No silly, I mean we already spent all our money

    CHUM CHUM opens his BUTT SAFE revealing a DIRTY SOCK and some flies. (sfxfoghorn)

    FANBOY:Gasp! How can this be? (he looks up at the pile of cups) where could all our money have gone?

    CHUM CHUM:Well we did go shopping

    Chum Chum points off screen to pile of stuff in it is a TOILET with a golden seat.FANBOY walks up to the pile of stuff.

    FANBOY:But we had to get Betty! She was sitting there all alone, begging for a good home.

    FANBOY kneels by the toilet and gives it a hug

    FANBOY:

    You can find the darndest things at the government surplus store. Isnt the rightChum Chum?CHUM CHUM:

    Uh huh! But we still dont have any money

    FANBOY: Never fear, my faithful sidekick. We will just have to find some refreshmentaround here

    Int: Kitchen

    CHUM CHUM is standing by an open fridge the contents include; a half eaten APPLE, aslice of CHEESE with a bite taken out, half a FISH, ect.

    FANBOY:Well Chum Chum what are our options?

    Chum Chum pulls out a juice box and gives it a little shake. The contents slush around.

    CHUM CHUM:We have half a grape juice box

    FANBOY quickly swipes the juice box and gulps it with a loud slurp.

    CHUM CHUM:Make that one empty juice box.

    FANBOY:

    Never leave anything half-done Chum Chum, my pal

    CHUM CHUM glances at the fridge filled with half eaten stuff

    CHUM CHUM:Wise words.

    FANBOY:

    I know, right? It was in a fortune cookie I ate once.

    3/26

    CHUM CHUM:

    It still doesnt solve our drink problem.

    FANBOY tries to get the last drop out of the juice box

    FANBOY:

    Yeah, Im parched. There must be something around here that is liquidy, sweetand, quite possibly, partially frozen.

    30 seconds later the kitchen is in ruins. FANBOY and CHUM CHUM sit on the floor panting.

    FANBOY:

    n n nnnothing.CHUM CHUM:

    So thirsty.

    FANBOY:

    Well buddy, its been nice knowing you. If I die first, I want you to have the FanLair.

    CHUM CHUM:

    (crying) I dont want to die Fanboy!

    FANBOY:

    (hugging CHUM CHUM) Waaahhh

    CHUM CHUM:

    Wait Fanboy, what about water?

    FANBOY:

    (pulls away disgusted) Water? Water! Id have to be pretty disparate to drink thatswill.

    CHUM CHUM:

    I dont know Fanboy, Im pretty desperate.

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    4/26

    FANBOY:

    Alright buddy, for you Ill drink water

    FANBOY and Chum Chum are at the sink filling a cup. FANBOY takes a tentative sip.

    FANBOY:

    You know this stuff isnt half-bad, but it needs something

    FANBOY picks up a half eaten fish from the floor and places it in the glass and hands itoff to CHUM CHUM

    CHUM CHUM:

    HMMM too fishy

    FANBOY hand him a cup with glue in it

    CHUM CHUM:Too sticky.

    FANBOY hands him a cup with a slice of cheese

    CHUM CHUM:Too Cheesy

    FANBOY:

    Its no use. There is nothing in the world that will make this water stuff drinkable.

    Chum Chum leans down and picks up a JAR

    CHUM CHUM:

    What about this?

    FANBOY:

    Le-mon-ne-de drink mix: just add water. You know? This is just so crazy is has towork!

    FANBOY pulls out a pitcher, fills it with water pours the container of powder in. Hemixes the lemonade and pours two glasses.

    FANBOY:

    5/26

    Here goes nothing

    CHUM CHUM:

    To Nothing!

    FANBOY and CHUM CHUM clink their glasses and take a sip.

    CHUM CHUM:

    Hey, thats pretty good.

    FANBOY:

    (eyeing his drink) not bad, not bad, but it needs something. (pause) I Know

    FANBOY walks over to a cupboard

    FANBOY:

    Im going to add some secret ingredients. No peeking!

    FANBOY pulls out a large sack of sugar and adds it to the lemonade. While CHUMCHUM is turned away he opens the BUTT SAFE and pulls out the SOCK and adds thatto the mix. He stirs and then takes a sip.

    FANBOY:

    Almost perfect!

    CHUM CHUM:

    Let me try (takes a sip) Mmmm mmmm! I think its great.

    FANBOY:

    The flavor is there but its not freezy enough.

    CHUM CHUM:

    Maybe we can put it in the freezer?

    FANBOY:

    Chum Chum, youre a genius!

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    6/26

    FANBOY places the PITCHER in the freezer. FANBOY and CHUM CHUM sit in frontof the freezer in anticipation.

    FANBOY:

    well that should do it!

    CHUM CHUM:

    but its only been 10 seconds, I dont think its ready yet.

    FANBOY:

    Really? (opens freezer and pitcher is the same) Huh, I guess your right.

    CHUM CHUM:We should do something while we wait

    2 hours later Chum Chum and FANBOY enter Kitchen with balloons, Viking helmets,and golf clubs

    FANBOY:

    Well that was some adventure

    CHUM CHUM:

    Sure was.

    FANBOY:

    Hey I wonder if our Le-mon-ne-de is ready

    FANBOY pulls out an iced over pitcher.

    CHUM CHUM:

    Look its half frozen

    FANBOY pulls out a straw and pokes at the top with no avail.

    FANBOY:

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    7/26

    Do you know what this means?

    CHUM CHUM:

    That we should go on another adventure while it thaws?

    FANBOY:

    No, it means I get to try out my new mallet I got at the surplus store. I knew thisthing would come in handy.

    FANBOY places the PITCHER on the floor and smashes with a mallet he got out of thinair. After a rigorous beating CHUM CHUM approaches the pitcher and sticks a finger infor a taste test.

    CHUM CHUM:

    Wow! You should taste this!

    FANBOY:

    Is it another failure?

    FANBOY sips the pitcher and a gleeful look steals across this face.

    FANBOY:

    its, its wonderful

    CHUM CHUM:

    Almost like a lemon frosty freezy freeze

    FANBOY:

    Shhh!

    FANBOY covers Chum Chums mouth

    CHUM CHUM:

    Raaawt rives? (What gives)

    FANBOY:

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    8/26

    Uh uh, Chum Chum, it would be sacrilegious to compare our home brewed beverage to the wonder that is the frosty freezy freeze.

    CHUM CHUM:

    (Lips hanging out from FANBOYs hand) What should we call it then?

    FANBOY:

    A name, a name well its yellow

    CHUM CHUM:

    And not a frosty freezy freeze.

    FANBOY:

    Thats it! This drink (lifts pitcher into the air) shall henceforth be called a Yellow,not a freezy freeze!

    OZ:

    Whats not a freezy freeze?

    OZ enters off screen

    FANBOY:

    Oz! What are you doing here?

    OZ:

    I came to get some ice but I see you are all out. Seriously.

    FANBOY:

    We have something better than ice

    Fanboy hands OZ a CUP of lemonade

    OZ:

    What gives? Are they out of frosty freezy freezes at the mart?

    CHUM CHUM:

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    9/26

    No but we were out of money. So Fanboy mixed something almost as good

    OZ:

    Not bad. You know, if you are all out of money you could sell this stuff.

    FANBOY and CHUM CHUM:Sell?

    OZ:

    Cha. Captain Richman had a lemonade stand back in issue one. Its like, how hegot bitten buy that radio-active lemon.

    FANBOY:

    We could be rich! Thanks Oz!FANBOY and CHUM CHUM zip out of the kitchen

    Ext: Outside sidewalk

    CHUM CHUM and FANBOY sit at a stand. The LEMONADE is nearby in BETTY theTOILET.

    FANBOY:

    Come one, come all, and taste the wonder that is Yellow! (aside to Chum Chum)I shorten the name. Very edgy.

    CHUM CHUM:

    Youre so smart.

    FANBOY:

    I Know! Come and get a cool glass of Yellow. Only 25 cents.

    KYLE walks into frame

    KYLE:

    What are you idiots up to now? (Glances into Betty) You know what? Never mindI dont want to know.

    CHUM CHUM:

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    10/26

    Its Yellow, our new drink.

    FANBOY:

    Only a quarter.

    KYLE:

    As if I would foul my lips with any concoction you two made.

    FANBOY:

    What if we gave you a free sample?

    KYLE:

    No

    FANBOY proceeds to shove a drink into KYLES face. He struggles but tastes it anyway.

    KYLE:

    Mmmm this isnt half bad Actually it is quite good.

    KYLE drinks his whole glass and glances around

    KYLE:

    I cant believe Im saying this but, Ill buy a glass.

    Kyle hands over a quarter and Chum Chum ladles more lemonade into his cup. As Kyledrinks Yo enters frame.

    YO:

    MR MUFFLIN:

    FANBOY:

    LENNY

    wow, its quiet today. (voice echos and he strikes a Kung Fu pose) too quiet hi-yay! (beat) huh, I guess no one is here. A guy could get use to this.

    LENNY lounges back and 3 days later hes in the same spot but obviously bored.

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    LENNY:

    BOOG flips the open sign to close

    BOOG:Problem solved, now lets go. Bye chimp chomp, daddy will be back later.

    BOOG pushes LENNY out the door

    EX: on the sidewalk by the stand.

    The lemonade stand has been upgraded with a sign now saying Y There is a lot of people around as LENNY and BOOG walk up. FANBOY is wiping a glass like a bartender

    FANBOY:

    Lenny, my pal, how are things over at the frosty mart?

    LENNY:

    FANBOY:

    FANBOY:

    CHUM CHUM enters on roller-skates and a tray of DRINKS. BOOG takes both of the

    glasses and gulps them down.BOOG:

    That is some good yellow.

    CHUM CHUM:

    Actually its called Y Fanboy says acronyms are very edgy now.

    FANBOY:

    So, from one drink seller to another I want your honest opinion Leonard.

    FANBOY hands a CUP to LENNY. And after some hesitation he takes a sip.

    LENNY

    This is just

    A LIMO comes down the street and stops in front of the stand. A MAN in a suit stepsout. He looks around, and the crowd around the stand stops what ever they were doingand stare.

    LENNY:

    Mr. Johnson! Its an honor sir.

    Mr. JOHNSON lifts a finger to silence LENNY and takes his glass. As he takes a sip,FANBOY pulls LENNY aside.

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    16/26

    FANBOY:

    (whispering) whos that?

    LENNY

    Mr. Johnson (pause) he is the head of product development for Frosty Mart

    CHUM CHUM:

    Wow

    MR JOHNSON:

    And who may I ask, is the proprietor of this shop?

    FANBOY:

    MR JOHNSON:

    Ah yes, some of my finest work. And yet here, this Y drink, has been more popular lately

    CHUM CHUM:

    MR JOHNSON:

    CROWD

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    17/26

    Ooooo

    MR JOHNSON:

    Yes, yes. Those pink and blue flavors are outdated. It has been time to update the

    frosty freezy freeze selection

    FANBOY:

    Wait you mean you wont serve pink and blue anymore?

    MR JHONSON:

    Only yellow

    CHUM CHUM:

    But I like pink

    FANBOY:

    And blue

    CHUM CHUM:

    And pink

    FANBOY:

    And lets not forget blue.

    MR JHONSON:

    Enough. Im willing to pay top dollar for your yellow slush recipe. Dont youwant to be rich?

    FANBOY:

    Money means nothing if it costs me my soul.

    CHUM CHUM:

    LENNY

    With all due respect sir this drink is just frozen lem-

    BOOG elbows LENNY who doubles over in pain.

    BOOG:

    Im sure the boys would love to sell their recipe. Wouldnt you Chum Chum?

    CHUM CHUM:

    Ah well I dont know the recipe. Fanboy makes it. Waaahhh I cracked.

    FANBOY:

    There there chum old buddy. I wont crack. And I say no.

    MR JHONSON:

    I see you need some time to think about it. Ill be back this time tomorrow. I hopeyou change your minds by then.

    BOOG makes a fist

    BOOG:

    Oh Im sure they will.

    SFX of door shutting and limo driving away.

    LENNY:

    You know this is just lemonade right?

    CHUM CHUM:

    Nuh, uh. Fanboy added a secret ingredient.

    LENNY:

    Like what?

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    19/26

    FANBOY:

    Is wouldnt be a secret if I tell you.

    BOOG:

    Well you better tell me

    FANBOY:

    Im sorry Boog, I cant do that.

    BOOG:

    Why I outta

    The crowd, no longer spell bound by limo rushes forward demanding drinks. BOOG getsswept away.

    LENNY:

    You know there is something different about this lemonade. There is somethingfamiliar about it too

    FANBOY and CHUM CHUM serve drinks to the crowd

    LENNY:

    Well back to the frosty mart.

    LENNY walks away and BOOG grabs him out from some bushes.

    LENNY:

    Hey!

    BOOG:

    Shhh!

    LENNY:

    What gives?

    BOOG:

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    20/26

    Weve got to find out that formula.

    LENNY:

    I dont care about it. If those two are busy with their stand then they wont be in

    the Frosty Mart. Its great

    BOOG:

    But we could be rich!

    LENNY:

    Do it on your own

    BOOG:

    Fine, more money for me. Hehe

    LENNY:

    Lunatic

    LENNY walks away and BOOG pulls out a pair of binoculars. He spots FANBOYentering the fan lair.

    Int: Kitchen FANBOY has a pitcher that he fills with water. BOOG bursts through thedoor.

    BOOG:

    Gotcha!

    FANBOY:

    What? Im just watering my new plant.

    BOOG:

    I dont see any plants

    FANBOY glances over BOOGs shoulder. Behind BOOG is a large Venus flytrap thateats him. (montage) FANBOY has pulled out a pitcher from the freezer. He proceeds tosmash the half-frozen drink with a mallet clonking a slime covered BOOG in the process.Later still, FANBOY is outside at the stand getting ready to pour a new batch into Betty.BOOG pops out of the toilet only to be flushed by Chum Chum. FANBOY is walking

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    21/26

    down the street and a piano falls out of no where crashing on top of BOOG. BOOG popsout of the piano

    BOOG:

    Arrg! Thats it, give me that recipe or Ill bop it out of you.

    BOOG looks to FANBOY only to see him crossing the street. BOOG runs after him onlyto be smashed by an oncoming school bus.

    That night FANBOY and CHUM CHUM are in the living room of the fanlair countingquarters when they hear a knocking at the door. CHUM CHUM opens it to see anexhausted BOOG standing out side with a crutch and his arm in a sling. Multiplescratches are on his face.

    FANBOY:

    Oh hey Boog. What brings you to our home?

    BOOG:

    Give me

    BOOG falls over

    CHUM CHUM:

    I think hes hurt

    FANBOY:

    You right but what would make him feel better? I know, lets give him a glass of Y!

    FANBOY rushes to the Kitchen and brings back a glass of lemonade but on his way back he trips and spills the drink on BOOG. BOOG reacts violently to the acid on his scratches

    BOOG:

    Aaaah it burns. Aahhh I got it in my eyes!

    BOOG steps back and falls out and down with various crashing noises.

    FANBOY:

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    22/26

    Boy it made him feel so good that didnt want to stay. How about that ChumChum?

    CHUM CHUM:

    Im surprised that he didnt try to bop us.

    FANBOY:

    Chum Chum my buddy, we have become his equals

    CHUM CHUM:

    We have?

    FANBOY:

    Yeah, fellow freezy drink vendors shouldnt pop each other.

    CHUM CHUM:

    That makes sense.

    FANBOY:

    So Chum Chum, I think I may sell the Y recipe.

    CHUM CHUM:

    Why?

    FANBOY:

    Who am I to stand in the way of progress? Besides all this work is no fun.

    CHUM CHUM:

    Yeah

    FANBOY:

    Plus we have enough quarters here to last us a long time.

    The next day there is a large crowd (which includes BOOG and LENNY) in front of thestand. FANBOY stands on the counter as CHUM CHUM is ready with a pitcher of lemonade.

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    23/26

    FANBOY:

    Ladies and gentlemen this Y stand will be closing down.

    CROWD:

    Awww

    CHUM CHUM:

    FANBOY:

    Thats right soon Y will be available in Frosty Marts across the nation

    CROWD:

    FANBOY:

    And to celebrate we will be serving free Y all day today.

    CROWD

    Yay!!!

    Crowd surges forward except LENNY and BOOG. LENNY turns to BOOG

    LENNY:

    I still think there is something weird about that lemonade. Did you get the recipe?

    BOOG:

    No, but its going to be easier to their money once they sell the recipe. Hehe

    LENNY:

    It will?

    BOOG:

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    24/26

    Yeah, just think once they sell that recipe they will be back in the Frosty Martwhere the bopping is easy.

    LENNY:

    Oh right

    BOOG:

    Theyll have so much cash theyll practically live there.

    LENNY:

    They already do

    BOOG shrugs and LENNY looks nervous. The limo returns and out steps MR.

    JOHNSON wearing a Fanboy-style cape.FANBOY:

    Cool threads.

    MR JOHNSON:

    You boys have inspired me to revisit my youth. I want to give Frosty Mart amakeover. How would you do like to become consultants. Youll get to work with me torenew Frosty Mart as the place for kids to hang out and drink frosty freezy freeze

    FANBOY and CHUM CHUM:

    Really???

    LENNY:

    Oh this is bad,

    FANBOY and CHUM CHUM:

    Wooooo

    FANBOY and Chum Chum jump up and down clicking their heels. One of Fanboysshoes flies off and hits LENNY in the face

    FANBOY:

    Whoops, sorry

  • 8/8/2019 Slush Fund

    25/26

    LENNY:

    Why you (pause) wait I recognize this smell

    BOOG:

    LENNY takes another sniff looking perturbed

    LENNY:

    Do you put shoes in your lemonade?

    FANBOY:

    Socks actually

    FANBOY wiggles the toes on his shoeless foot. The crowd looks down at his feet andthen to their cups.

    CROWD:

    Ewww

    The crowd dumps out their drinks

    MR JOHNSON:

    Well this is, well deal is off

    MR JOHNSON runs back to limo and drives off. The crowd throws their cups down andstarts to walks off. BOOG punches LENNY in the arm.

    BOOG:

    Thanks a lot

    CHUM CHUM:

    What just happen?

    FANBOY:

    Some people cant just understand my creative genius.
