UPDA CREEK APARTMENTS
Mister Hitler is showing a new tenant, STACY VAVOOM, around the place.

		HILTER
	So far we've got twenty different people 
	living in "Upda Creek" apartments...  
	they're nice folk, but I'd stay away from 
	Bippo the Clown if I were you.

		STACY
	Why is that, Mister Hitler?

		HILTER
	Hilter, darling.  Bippo's a little...  oh, 
	what's the politically correct way to put 
	it?  He's...  off his rocker.  A few fries 
	short of a happy meal.  He's looney tunes.  
	He's nonus in sanus!  He's...

		STACY
	I get the idea.

		HILTER
	Chocolate Treat's a nice... uh... lady...  
	I think.  Then we have Thad Coffey in 1-A.  
	He works at Circus, Circus.  Harry the 
	Handyman lives in 2-A...  that Elvis 
	Impersonator that runs that wedding chapel 
	lives in 3-A...  let's see...  Am I forgetting 
	anyone?

LIAM SMITH enters looking quite happy.

		LIAM
	Hi, Mister Hilter!

		HILTER
	Oh, yes.  Stacy VaVoom, this is Liam Smith.  
	1-B.

		LIAM
	Stacy VaVoom?  Well, as Cisero once said to
	Tolstoy, "Universal ambiguity is the only
	constant to which the Homo Sapian species
	can be adequately judges by the clientele of 
	a deity.  I for one, agree with him in this
	case.

Stacy giggles.

		HILTER
	Did you actually understand that?

		STACY
	No, but his fly's down.

Hilter and Stacy bust up laughing as Liam zips himself up.

		LIAM
	I'll give you my number later.

INT. CIRCUS CIRCUS CASINO Camera fades in on a man's hand. He taps the table twice. MAN Dealer... a game of Blackjack if you will. Camera pans up the mans arm and dramatically reveals that he is JAMES BOND, 007. JAMES BOND I'm rather surprised you agreed to this game, Doctor Yes. James Bond leans back revealing a man in a white suit lovingly petting a small Chihuahua. This is the villian, DOCTOR YES DOCTOR YES I agreed to this game, Mister Bond, because I am a master of backjack and there is no possibility that you can win. BOND We shall see, Doctor Yutz. YES Oh... resorting to immature name-calling? How foolishly mundane. [a pause, then whispering] ...you ass-faced horse raper. BOND DEALER! We would like to play a game of blackjack! Camera pans to reveal LAIM SMITH at the dealer position playing a gameboy. GAMEBOY Pickachu! LIAM Oh yes! I am the Pokémon king! Doctor Yes snatches the Gameboy away from Liam who reacts as if this is the first time he has seen the two men waiting to play. LIAM No! No! Pichaku needs me! Wait a minute... who are you guys? YES You may call me Doctor Yes... or, as soon as this game is finished, you may call me MASTER OF THE WORLD! LIAM Why is that, Doctor yes? BOND Doctor Yes and I made an agreement when he had me straped down on a table targeted by a... LIAM Whoa, hold that thought... Look, I have no problem with alternative sexual preferences, but I don't care to hear about... BOND It's not like that. LIAM Look... I'm not condemning you. I think what you have is a beautiful thing. BOND Could you please shut up and pay attention? LIAM Sure. BOND The Reader's Digest version is that this game will determine whether I live or die. YES ...and if he dies, the last barrier to my total domination of the world will be removed. LIAM Facinating. BOND Drop the Gameboy. Liam drops it. LIAM Frak. BOND Deal please. LIAM Right. Liam deals. BOND [Looks at his card.] Wha...!? JOKER! You were supposed to remove these from the deck! LIAM Oh, sorry... here's another. YES Hit me. Liam deals him a card. YES Ah! Twenty! Beat that, Mister Bond! BOND I beleive I will. As you can see, Doctor Yes, I have been dealt an ace. I believe I will stay. LIAM But... you haven't even looked at your bottom card! BOND I like to live... dangerously. YES Very well... Show your card, Mister Bond. James Bond turns his card over and - without looking at it - smiles confidently. Doctor Yes looks. YES Rules for poker and canasta? BOND WHAT!? [looks at card] But... But... But... YES What a pi-ty, Mister Bond. Doctor Yes snaps his finger and several henchmen appear and pick James Bond up out of his chair. BOND No! It's was Liam Smith's fault! Not mine! The henchmen carry James Bond out the door. Doctor Yes rises and follows. BOND Well, at least tell me your secret plan for World Domination! YES Oh! Ho, ho, ho... I'm not falling for THAT one again! Bond, Yes, and the henchmen exit. LIAM [watches them leave] Ah, yong lovers... There is a gunshot and the sound of a body hitting the floor. P.A. Clean up in section four-A, first floor. Repeat: Dead Brittish Spy in section four-A, first floor. FADE OUT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Yeah! Drop the Chalupa! - Please watch First Wave... No one else is! - Play the State Lottery! It's the only way you'll retire... ever! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ FADE IN LIAM'S APARTMENT Liam is sitting on his couch asleep. Ripple dissolve to: A MEADOW: Liam wanders into the scene and looks around. It's a bright summer day and romantic music plays in the backgrond. Liam turns to see a blonde woman in the distance. He can tell she is very attractive even thought she is so far away, we cannot see her face. Liam recognizes her. LIAM My God... it's her! She's come back to me. WOMAN'S VOICE Liam... come to me, Liam... LIAM I'm coming, Kari! I'm coming! Liam runs towards the woman. Halfway there, he trips and fall face down in the mud. A hand juts out of the ground and grabs Liam's throat. Liam reacts in horror as a decomposing JAMES BOND climbs out of the muck. BOND You KILLED me, Liam! You KILLED me! CUT TO: LIAM'S APARTMENT Liam wakes up screaming. The camera pulls back and we see he is surrounded by several BRITTISH AGENTS and M from the 007 movies. LIAM Am I still dreaming? M Oh, that you were my boy. LIAM I don't understand. M Well, neither do I. Are you Liam Smith? LIAM That depends... are you from Hollywood Video? M No. LIAM Then I am Liam Smith. [softly] Damned Hollywood Video's been trying to get me to return Sliver for months now... but it's MINE! MINE I TELL YOU! MINE!!! M That's very... oh, what's the word I'm looking for? AGENT Pathetic? M Bingo. LIAM Wait a minute... I just figured something out. Who are you guys? What are you doing in my apartment? You can't just wander in here anytime you damn well please... CHOCOLATE TREAT enters. CHOCOLATE TREAT Liam, honey... I'm going to borrow some sugar. Cholate Treat walks into the kitchen and returns with a cup of sugar, a bag of chips, a 2 liter bottle of Coke, and a box of Danish Wedding Cookies. CHOCOLATE TREAT Thanks, honey. Chocolate Treat exits. LIAM ...and violate my personal property and privacy! How dare you!? M Mister Smith, I am M. LIAM M? M M. LIAM You're named after a letter of the Alphabet? How stupid! MISTER T breaks down the door. MISTER T I pity the po' fool who makes fun of my name! Q from Star Trek appears. Q Is someone making fun of people with letters for names? THE ARTIST FORMERY KNOWN AS PRINCE enters. THE ARTIST FORMERY KNOWN AS PRINCE Hey! Us people named after letters have feelings to! LIAM Yeah, but you're name is an unpronouncable androgynous symbol. THE ARTIST FORMERY KNOWN AS PRINCE That's because I am so bizzare and unique and... Q GET OVER YOURSELF!!! Q snaps his fingers and the Artist Formerly Known as Prince gets turned inside out and dies a gagging mess of mourge meat on Liam's floor. EVERYONE IN ROOM Thank you, Q. Q Anytime. Q vanishes. Chocolate Treat enters. CHOCOLATE TREAT Oh, Liam... I also wanted to borrow... [she sees Mister T] ...row. ...row. ...row. MISTER T I pity the po' fool who... Chocolate Treat grabs Mister T and kisses him. MISTER T Wow! I'll see you guys later! Mister T and Chocolate Treat skip away. M What an odd thing. LIAM Odd? M Yes... all of the... [a beat] Nevermind. Liam, the man you delt blackjack to today. LIAM James Bond or Doctor Yes? M Bond. LIAM Ah. M He's missing. LIAM Missing!? Oh, I bet Doctor Yes is worried sick! M Actually, we think that Doctor Yes is behind his dissapearence. LIAM Nooooo... Doctor Yes and James Bond were so happy together. I mean, I don't think I'm gay or anything, but a homosexual relationship CAN be a beautiful thing. M and the agents stare at him. M Can you take us to where you last saw Mister Bond? LIAM Sure. Mister T's bloodcurlding screams filter through the walls. CUT TO: An Alley behind Circus, Circus Casino Liam, M, the agents, and THAD COFFEY are walking towards a dumpster. THAD Ah, here we are. Dumpster #13. Liam jumps inside the dumpster and starts digging. M What's so special about dumpster #13? Liam throws a dead body out. LIAM Nope, that's not him. M Good God! THAD This is where we throw out all of the bodies we find in the casino. Liam throws out two more bodies. LIAM No... No... No... M This is outrageous! Don't you people have any respect for the dead!? Liam's head pops up. LIAM Hey! This guy still has his wallet! THAD Dibs on the money! LIAM Nuh-uh. Split it with you? THAD Fine. M You're all crazy! LIAM Found him! Liam throws James Bond's body out of the dumpster. M Bond! Then it's true... he is dead. THAD Yep, he's dead all right. LIAM Deader than a doornail. THAD Deader than Mark Hamil's career. LIAM Deader than... M Will you two shut up!? AGENT So, M, what do we do now? The camera zooms in on M's face. A wild expression washes over it as the sound of a stick breaking is heard. (SNAP!) M Mister Smith? LIAM Yo? M You will take Mister Bond's place as secret agent 007. AGENTS GASP! LIAM I will? M Yes... The world is screwed now anyway so for grins and giggles, why don't you try to save it. Hell, it's not like you can make things worse! AGENT M! Are you nuts!? M Yes. M screams and runs down the street pulling her hair out as she runs. She bumps into a pedestrian who stumbles into the street. A bus swerves to miss him and careens onto the sidewalk. Pedestrians see it coming and, screaming, they run into a nearby theater for shelter. After a brief pause, the camera pans up to the theater marquee which displays the words "BRUCE WILLIS IS HAMLET". There is another scream from the pedestrians who run back out of the theater and are run down by the bus. Bruce Willis runs out after them. BRUCE WILLIS Aw, COME ON!!! The marquee collapses and crushes him. CUT TO: THE ALLEY Liam and Thad are splitting the take from the dead man's wallet. THAD I guess this means the fate of the free world is in your hands, Liam. LIAM Yep. Thad starts to walk off LIAM Hey. Where're you going? THAD Canada. FADE OUT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Just do it. - Just say no. - Just in case of wetting accidents, use Depends. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ EXT. A DESSERT ROAD A silver souped-up BMW zooms by. INT. THE CAR Liam sits in the driver's seat wearing sunglasses and looking very secret agent-ish. LIAM This car is awesome! Rocket boosters, unpuncturable tires, bullet-proof skin, anti-aircraft missiles, and a CD player! Wait a minute... what is this button? Liam presses the button which activates an ejection seat and rockets him into the air. The driverless car continues down the road. LIAM [up in the air] Well... That sucked. Gravity takes hold and Liam begins to fall. Suddenly, a parachute opens and his decent is slowed. LIAM All right! A parachute! Now I have nothing to worry about! MATCH CUT TO: Liam in the ejection seat floating in the sky on a television screen in some crosshairs. The camera zooms out revealing DOCTOR YES and a HENCHMAN watching the TV. HENCHMAN He just entered weapons range, Doctor Yes. YES Excellent. Use the grabber missile. HENCHMEN Ja vo, Doctor! Yes opens his mouth to speak, closes it, looks at the henchman, shakes his head, and shakes his head. YES Just... fire. Okay? CUT TO: Liam in the sky. LIAM [singing] Daisy... Daisy... Give me your answer to... [he notices something] ...the hell? CUT TO: A gigantic missile is rocketing towards Liam. Instead of a warhead, though, the missile is equipped with a large metal hand. The missile grabs Liam, turns around, and heads for Doctor Yes's secret headquarters. CUT TO: Doctor Yes's Secret Headquarters. Yes and four dozen henchmen watch as Liam comes down a large slide and lands in the middle of the floor. LIAM Whoa. YES Greetings, Liam Smith, I am Doctor Yes. LIAM Oh yeah... the gay guy. YES Whu...!? LIAM Look, I understand getting miffed at your life partner, but was killing him really the answer? YES I am not gay, you idiot! I am an evil genius bent on world domination! James Bond was in my way so I KILLED him as I plan on killing you, the new Agent 007! LIAM Oh. That does make more sense. Well I... [a pause] Wait a sec... How'd you know I was the new double-oh seven? I only found out a few hours ago. M enters staggers in quite drunk holding a foot-long strawberry daiquiri in one hand and a large beer in the other. M Oh, hello dubba-dubba-dubba-double oh seven! LIAM M!!! YES Yes. Agent M showed up a few hours ago and surrendered Britain to me. Before she got plastered, she told me all about her mental breakdown and her appointing you the new 007. LIAM But M! You just violated international security! M Security? Bah! With you as the new 007 we're screwed! We're all screwed! WE ARE SO SCREWED! [she grabs a henchman] Speaking of which... M drags the henchman into a room. HENCHMAN No! No! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! The sound of ripping clothing can be heard as the door slams shut. Liam and Doctor Yes shutter at the thought of M getting some rumpy-pumpy. YES Now, Liam Smith, I will put you in an elaborate and easily escapable deathtrap. LIAM Oh... okay. CUT TO: Liam is tied to a tree and blindfolded. Doctor Yes is pointing a gun at him. LIAM Excuse me. YES What now? Liam shakes the blindfold off. LIAM This doesn't seem either elaborate or easily escapable. YES Look, I'm in a bit of a rush here. You know, deliver the nuclear warhead to Washington... detonate it... so on and so on... rule the world with an iron fist... yada, yada, and yada... pick up clothes at dry cleaners... that sort of thing. [Doctor Yes aims gun] Any last words? LIAM Uh... Look behind you. YES Oh come now, 007, you don't really expect me to fall for that, do you? LIAM Really, Doctor Yes, look behind you! YES Your foolish attempt to distract me will not succeed. LIAM Please look behind you. YES No. LIAM Pretty please? YES Nuh-uh. LIAM C'mon. YES I'm not gonna. LIAM You're funeral. YES What do you mean, 'my-- Liam's souped-up, abandoned, and until now, forgotten BMW runs Doctor Yes down and turns him into a red stain. M enters. M Well, Liam, it looks like I underestimated you. You truly are secret agent material. Would you like to become the new 007 on a more permanent basis. LIAM Thanks, but I've all ready got a life, job, and supervillians who want me dead. M Well, it's a shame to loose you. I guess we'll just have to cast a new actor in James Bond's role. I wonder if that English guy from My Best Friend's Wedding is available. M walks off leaving Liam tied to the tree. LIAM Well, I guess what really matters is that Democracy is safe and that the nuclear warhead was stopped before it went to Washington. Off in the distance, Liam sees a UPS truck pick up a warhead-shaped package with the words "TO WASHINGTON D.C. FRAGILE. DO NOT X-RAY" written on the side. The truck drives away. LIAM Aw, crap. How could this day get any worse? A rabid squirrel jumps on Liam's head and starts gnawing on his ear. LIAM OW! Well, ask a... OW! Ask a stupid... OW! Question! OW! OW! OW! OW! CUT TO: EXT - THE WHITE HOUSE The nuclear warhead package arrives on the front porch. KEN STARR greets the delivery man. DELIVERY MAN Delivery for President Clinton. KEN STARR I'll take that! DELIVERY MAN But you're not President Clinton! KEN STARR True, but this package might be something I can use in my ploy... uh, I mean case to destroy the duly elected president of the United States!! DELIVERY MAN But... But... Ken Starr grabs the package, laughs maniacally, and runs over the horizon where, after a second, there is a bright flash and a large mushroom cloud. DELIVERY MAN What, no tip? Cheap bastard. FADE OUT THE END ROLL CREDITS
