Will: Okay. (he takes the camera and begins filming Seb.)

Seb: And I'm Seb "Sebastian" Steel.

Will: Yeah! (he sets down the camera and faces it so that it's taping both of them.)

Both: And together we're Steel Wills.

Will: Welcome to our triumphant video.


(Pause)

Both: Excellent. (Air Guitar.)

(At that moment that alarm clock goes off.)

Will: Uh-oh. We're late.

Will: For school, dude.

Seb: Oh yeah.

Scene Two
(School - Mr. Ryan's Class)

Mr. Ryan: Will, I'm waiting.

Will: He's dead?

Mr. Ryan: So Will, what you're telling me, essentially, is that Ceaser was a short, dead dude.

Will: Well yeah.

Seb: (quietly to Will) You totally blew it, dude.

Mr. Ryan: Sebastian, stand up.


Seb: Stand up?

Mr. Ryan: Yes son, stand up. Now, who was Queen Victoria?

Seb: (thinks) A sponge maker?

(The bell rings for the end of class.)

Mr. Ryan: Listen guys, don't forget, tomorrow. Final Reports, 1:30-3:30, okay?

Will: Mr. Ryan, before you say anything, my distinguished colleague Seb and I wish to
express to you our thanks for all the things we have learned in your class.

Mr. Ryan: And what have you learned?

Will: We have, uh…we've learned that the world has a great history.

Seb: Yes, and that thanks to leaders such as Genghis Khan, Joan of Arc, and Socratic
Method, the world is full of history.

Mr. Ryan: It seems to me that the only thing you have learned is that Caesar was a salad
dressing dude. Will, Seb, this is really quite simple. You have flunked every section of this
class. Now unless you get an A+ on your final oral report tomorrow, guys, I have no choice
but to flunk the both of you. Now you know your topics so I would at least suggest that you
cover those areas. Do you understand?

Both: Yes sir. (they turn to leave.)

Mr. Ryan: Guys. (they turn back to him) Your report had better be something very special.

Head Leader: Party on, dude!


(Rufus steps into the booth, dials the phone, and takes off for the past.)

(Will is sitting. Seb is walking back up to him, muttering under his breath.)

Both: Whoa! Not bad.


(The booth's door opens and Rufus walks out.)

Rufus: Greetings, my excellent friends.

Seb: Do you know when the Victoria ruled England?

Rufus: Well, perhaps we could ask her.. Gentlemen, I'm here to help you with your History
report.

Seb: What? How are you gonna help us?

Will: Yeah, are you gonna call someone and get the answers?

Rufus: Gentlemen, we're gonna do a lot more than that. (he dials the phone.)

Both: Whoa, excellent.


(Rufus then hangs up the phone and puts on his sunglasses.)

Rufus: Brace yourselves amigos. Gentlemen, we're history.


(The booth takes off.)
