MARKETPLACE MEDIA INTERNET COMMUNICATIONS AUDITION SCRIPT

               EXT. - FARM - DAY

               A spokeswoman, Olivia, appears on a "hover" ATV in a flash of
               light onto a farm service road in front of a farmer, Gary,
               and his granddaughter, Jaden, riding on a Gater. The Gater
               stops and Gary leans forward watching in amazement. Olivia
               gets off the hover ATV and looks at Gary and Jaden.

                                   GARY
                         Where'd you come from?

                                   OLIVIA
                         The future.

                                   JADEN
                         Whoa! Is that a Polaris?

                                   SPOKESWOMAN
                         No, Alpha Centauri.

                                   JADEN
                         Awesome!

                                   GARY
                         So why are you here?

                                   OLIVIA
                         I'm spreading the great news about
                         Space Time Communications' new 1
                         terabit per second high speed

                                   JADEN
                         1 terabit? I can live stream
                         holograms! Wow!

                                   OLIVIA
                         Well, time to go.

                                   GARY
                         Where you going?

                                   OLIVIA
                         I'm going to be in a parade.

               Olivia disappears in a flash of light. 

                                   GARY
                         Whoa! That was fast.

                                   JADEN
                         Yeah! 1 terabit per second!

               EXT. - PARADE ROUTE - DAY

               The hover ATV appears in a flash of light at the end of a
               parade line up. Andy and Garth, who are bystanders, see it
               appear. 

                                   ANDY

                             (Laughing)
                         Yeah, right.

                                   GARTH

                         Yes. Faster than light. Just like

                         Internet that fast would make my

                                   ANDY
                         I would be the 4-D gaming king!
