(BOB) Are you alright?
What is it?
(GEORGE)
Rain.
(BOB)
Real rain?
(BOB) Do you admit that
on the night of May 1, you did
consciously and willfully apply
the following FORBIDDEN colors to
the Pleasantville Town Hall:
Red, Pink, Vermillion, Puce,
Chartreuse, Umber, Blue, Aqua, Ox
Blood, Green, Peach, Crimson,
Yellow, Olive and Magenta.
(DAVID)
Um … Yes I do. Where’s our
lawyer?
(DAVID) You can’t do this, Jennifer. I WARNED
you.
(JENNIFER)
So what’s the big deal. Oh. Okay.
They’re like not good at basketball
anymore. Like–omigod, what a tragedy.
(JENNIFER) I’m gonna hurl, David. I swear to God.
(DAVID)
Just take deep breaths.
(JENNIFER)
All that animal fat. I feel it in my
pores or something.
(JENNIFER) It’s too weird David. This place is
giving me the creeps. Did you know all
the books are blank?
(DAVID)
What?
(JENNIFER)
I looked in the library. They got covers
with nothing inside them.
(DAVID)
What were you doing in a library?
(JENNIFER)
I got lost.
(JENNIFER) Pleasantville Marathon?
(DAVID)
Yeah. Every episode ever.
(JENNIFER)
Omigod, I don’t be-lieeeeve this! He’s

(DAVID)
Weil great. You can watch TV upstairs.
(JENNIFER)
Upstairs! Up-staiiirs! There isn’t any
STEREO!
(JENNIFER) Those are my friends?
(DAVID)
Peggy Jane, Lisa Anne and Betty Jean.
(JENNIFER)
Can we do any better?
(DAVID)
I don’t think so.
(SKIP)
Oh, I dunno Bud. Guess I’ll have my
usual cheeseburger and a cherry coke.
(JENNIFER)
Oh, I dunno Bud. Guess I’ll just have a
salad and an Evian Water.
(SKIP) I don’t know if I ever said this to you
before, but, well … I think you’re
just about the keenest girl in the whole
school …
(JENNIFER)
Really Skip? The keenest?
(SKIP) To be honest Mary Sue. I didn’t think
you’d want to come here until we’d been
pinned for a little while.
(JENNIFER)
Oh, Skipp. You can ‘pin’ me any time you
want to……or maybe I should just pin you…
(SKIP) Well … If I was to ask your sister …
What I mean is, if I was to go up to
Mary Sue …
(DAVID)
Oh my God! Are we in that episode?
–Ray Campbell’s got a blue front door! — It’s always been blue!
… For those of you going on to college
next year, the chance of finding a good
job will actually decrease by the time
you graduate. Entry level jobs will drop
from thirty-one to twenty-six percent,
and the median income for those jobs
will go down as well …
… There’s a meatloaf in the fridge.
You just put it in the oven and turn
this little knob up to three-fifty.
If you put the pie in forty minutes
later, it’ll be hot in time for
dessert. I made a couple of lunches for you
and put them in brown paper bags …
I’m gonna go now…
1) Hey, Pumpkin! What’s that smell?
Is that your meat loaf?
2) ‘It might be …’
3)
It might be.
1) Hiya Bud! 2) Hiya Skip! 1) Hiya Bud! 2) Hiya Skip! 1) Bud, can I ask you a question? 2) Sure. 1) Well, if I was to go up to your sister…What I mean is, if I was to go up to Mary Sue- 2) Oh, God. Are we in that episode?

related to him. I can’t believe you’re

Only on my parent’s side.

I know, but you’re like … twins and
stuff.
You must be from like, the cool side of
the uterus.
1) Omigod, omigod–here they come.
2)
Don’t do anything. Just don’t like–do
anything …
1) What’s outside of Pleasantville? 2) Well … There are some places where
the road doesn’t go in a circle.
There are some places where it keeps
on going.
1) Who’s that?
2)
Skip Martin. Captain of the basketball
team.
3)
Does he–like ‘me’?
4)
As a matter of fact he does.
5)
Hunh.
1) Yeah…what’s outside of Pleasantville? 2)….I don’t understand.
