Knock on the trailer door.

Actor - "Yo !"

'Space Lady' - Normal clothes still holding the pistol, a flailing armed expressive person, always stoned, waving it around. "I swear to God I am never giving this thing up.  What's.  Up." 

Throws herself on the trailer couch and picks up the Pong controller.

Actor - "Just ... talking about the script re-write ... "

Space - Twitches and freezes with a short enraged sound.

Actor - "Just kidding, we're on about nothin."

Space - "I.  Fucking.  Hate you !"  Plays on, eyes glazed to it.  "Hey when are we shooting tomorrow is it a morning thing or what."

Actor - "Morning.  Your space-ship takes off at dawn."

Space - Freezes.  Looks at him angry, "Are you fucking with me ?  Seriously.  Are you fucking with me ?"

Actor - "I wish."

She looks at him suspicious, then to the co-star who nods.

Space - "There went sleep.  Oh.  Here."  Pulls out a bundle with one hand, the other still trying to play, puts it on the near table-side.  Fuck !"  Pong death.

Sighs and puts it down.

Space - "Okay so like I have to do this thing to do tonight ... so if I seem tired and maybe twitchy tomorrow it's not my fault, even though my character is supposed to be all serene like.  Alien style."

Co-star - "When did you sleep last ?"

Space - "Literally just woke up."

Actor - "Oh fuck."

Space - "Yeah.  And it's looking like this for a while because things.  I'm moody.  So do you think we can maybe like convince the director it's ... interpretative ?"

Soldier - "Pissed off alien lady surrounded by things that make her seem like she's supposed to be serene ... I can actually see that."

Space - Looks at him.  "Yeah ?"

Soldier - "Yeah."

...

Space - "Hi, I'm Space Lady."

Soldier - Shakes her hand on early morning set and in costume.  "Soldier Story."

Space Lady - Smiles turning away, "I know."  Then blinded by the sunrise she just turned to, hand up to her eyes, "Ullgh."

The UFO blasts off into it.

A short cut of the song while their ship leaves the atmosphere, a look between Soldier story and Space Lady, a flash of something happening in the shadows, shots of her looming over someone viciously.  

 

Her arm raises with a flash, then back to the ship. 

She smiles at the Soldier then looks to the viewport shot of them leaving the world behind, and to the next song.

As the Actor and Co-star's kid rides his big-wheel, pretty much dressed like dad, upturned collar, sunglasses and a sucker hanging out of his mouth. 

Security squad jogging behind him like a daily routine, waving to the neighbors' security waving back, nanny lagging on a scooter smoking with a nod between the other nannies and occasional flask hit.

They pull their own and toast.

He rides around the hollywood richy neighborhood ... all their own assorted absurdities in their yards.

Actor Jr is in the park, pushed into the sand by another kid, both security squads draw on each other.

Capricorn Daddy Brat - "My dad's in jail because of your dad."

Actor Jr - "It's okay boys ... "  He crunches the sucker in his mouth and flicks the stick.  "I got this."  Looks at Capricorn Brat, "Your daddy's a cannibal."

Capricorn D Brat - "Is not !  He's in jail for tax evasion, drug trafficking, money laundering, climbing stupid walls, and ... and ... " his security whispers in his ear, "And yeah.  Driving too fast."

Actor Jr - "My daddy drives too fast."

Capricorn D Brat - "Nuh-uh.  Your daddy drives like my mommy."

     ~ His mom is doing smokey donuts in a Chippendales parking lot with three dancers with the dumb bow ties in the car.

Actor Jr - "Does not !"

     ~ The actor waits annoyed at the stoplight then looks to the side at the cop.  Fake smile and a two finger wave to which the cop shakes his head and drives.

Actor Jr - "My dad told me all about it and got in trouble with my Mom.  They had like ... a big table ... and there were people sitting at it ... and there was like a barbecue ... with a guy ... 

...

Actor Jr - "And they ate him."

Capricorn Brat - "Did not !"

Actor Jr - "They totally ate him."

Capricorn D Brat - Knocks him across the jaw.  "I'm gonna kill you." 

The security squads draw on each other. 

Actor Jr - Holds up a hand ... they ease back.  "I said I got this."  

And it's on.

An apparently angry alien with a vaguely Muppet like mouth flapping. flails his arms on the viewscreen in a rage.

The two kids stare down with arms crossed as their respective security teams turn the cranks to lift their harnesses.

Angry alien thumps a big red button with a tentacle.  A film crew member dressed in black moves the UFO on a stick toward the space lobsters dangling from another's fingers lie puppets strings, he looks at the other crew member and bounces them around ...

All and all they do a good job with the effects added in (but still seeing the giant people working everything through the viewport).

Other crew looks back with a wicked grin and a nod ... smoking nannies make bets and get drunk, sitting on their parked scooters.

The security squads work the cranes, trying to knock the kids into each other, which actually isn't as easy as it sounds.  Nor is controlling a lobster squadron with your fingers, all of which is seen through the viewscreen including the film crew as the actors respond to the ship's hits.

~ Flailing armed Muppet Alien protests one of their their kills with more tentacle slammed buttons.

The Capricorn Daddy Brat spins out of control ... Actor Junior is lowered with his arms crossed looking triumphant, security hands him a sucker, he puts it in his mouth.
