FADE IN:

INT. CYBERPAL’S COMPUTER ROOM-DAY

CYBERPAL checks files on his computer, rolling green and red digits and icons on his screen.  His right ear is bandaged with silver wire gauze.  He lands on a site titled "The Money Mule" with a logo of a WHITE MULE.  The site has big header: "Mint cash while you sleep!".  He clicks on it.  White Mule NEIGHS, then talks.

WHITE MULE
Want to make money while you snore? Join our trusted system to mint cash daily.  Proven formula by Billionaire, Dr. MoneyTalk himself! 

CYBERPAL
Shut the-virus-up, you dead ass’s ghost!

CUT TO:

INT. CYBER WATCHTOWER-DAY

The room is filled with several satellite dishes and wide screen monitors.  One of the desks with a screen Monitor is labeled "CYBO’s Electrode zone".  The second desk is labeled "HACKO’s Watchpad". Cybo and Hacko are busy manipulating electronic gadgets. Cybo’s machinery includes a large telescope. He adjusts it and White Mule’s face appears.  White Mule moves his jaws about, as if grinning.

CYBO
There is no sound!

Cybo further manipulates the telescope, then opens a wide flat screen named "Electromagnetic field" below the telescope.

CYBO (Cont’d)
If I can’t catch his words, then at least I should catch his footsteps before he escapes. What a ghost hunt!

Cybo clicks on White Mule’s legs.  They are dancing.

CYBO (Cont’d)
Oh, boy, he’s free!  Hacko, White Mule is free!  

HACKO
Give me a break!   My own war is raging.

Hacko manipulates his Watchpad.  Psychedelic images appear.  Dr. MoneyTalk in FLASHY red car appears in the moving images.  There is BLEEPING sound, and red color flashes on Hacko’s screen. 

ROBOTIC VOICE OVER
Danger zone...signal lost in red!   Danger zone...signal lost in red!  Danger zone...signal lost in red!

Hacko clicks large RED button. BLEEPING sound.

HACKO
I can’t believe this!  Dr. MoneyTalk bastard is off my radar!

EXT. FRAUD CITY STREET-DAY

Golden Gates close as Dr. MoneyTalk drives into Fraud city streets, amidst frenzied SHOUTS from different weird looking beings.  Most of them look like computer icons, viruses, hackers, and screensavers.  They throw confetti and USB butterflies at him.   White Mule gallops alongside Dr. MoneyTalk’s flashy red car.

INT.  CYBER WATCHTOWER-DAY

Previous setting.  The room is still filled with several satellite dishes and wide screen monitors.  FAVOR screen Monitor labeled "CYBO’s Electrode zone", and the second desk labeled "HACKO’s Watchpad".

CYBERPAL (Cont’d)
And you, HACKO?  What’s your report?

HACKO
Sir, I was monitoring Dr. MoneyTalk closely, until he decided to ride in a red flashy car. 

DISSOLVE TO:

INT. FRAUD CITY DANCING HALL-DAY

ROBOTIC MEGAPHONE, who is the MC, is spinning records in the shape of several computer hard drive memory disks.   Icon-like beings are dancing wildly.  Each has a dancing partner that is computer-themed. The dancers include ICONS, SCREENSAVERS, SURFERS, HACKERS, and VIRUSES.  


The MUSIC stops when Dr. MoneyTalk comes in, riding White Mule.  Robotic Megaphone makes a LOUD announcement.

ROBOTIC MEGAPHONE
Attention, attention:  Internet fanatics, extinguished RAMS, broken hard drives, crashed CD ROMS, uninvited guests, ladies and gentlemen of the Cyberworld, please welcome his Highness, Dr. MoneyTalk and creator of the cash-minting White Money Mule! 

Loud hand CLAPPING, and CLANGING by several metallic guest limbs.  Dr. MoneyTalk shakes hands with several of the beings.  He is still on White Mule’s back.   Some crowd members help him off the saddle.  He stands in the center, and the crowds stand before him in awe. 

DR. MONEYTALK 
I am very pleased to see you my faithful disciples.  Today we had a mighty miracle from the MarshRooms.  For sure, the Cybernetic demons are on our side.  They answered all our curses, bad-mouthing, jealous rants and raves on the web!  Jolly good evil!  
                                                 FADE OUT.
