Canadian Heat Wave [S1E3]

INT. RURAL FARM - DAY

The CAMERA TRACKS slowly down a dusty dirt road. The sun shines brightly and there is a light wind rustling the leaves in the trees and the overgrown grass on the sides of the road. What must be at least 40 FARM VEHICLES begin to appear on the horizon. Old trucks, new combines, tractors, ATVs, even a BIG BOAT sits in a modern-looking barn.

A parked PICKUP TRUCK comes into view in front of a HOUSE with a SHELBY MUSTANG GT-350 in the garage. We see hints of cats and there is a brand new BBQ in front of the garage. A BLACK DOG waits eagerly waging his tail.

INT. SUBARU WAGON (MOVING)

The SUBARU is approaching the HOUSE. In the front seat are a WOMAN driving and a MAN sleeping in the passenger seat. The WOMAN is called GRANDMA S and the MAN is called PEMULIS. In the back there is a YOUNG WOMAN sitting next to a BABY in a car seat. The YOUNG WOMAN is JOELLE and the baby is HELGA. HELGA is sleeping and JOELLE is close to sleep herself. The trunk is filled with suitcases and it seems clear that PEMULIS, JOELLE, and HELGA have traveled to the farm.

The SUBARU comes to a stop and GRANDMA S kills the engine, silencing a 1960's Rock Opera. GRANDMA S looks relieved.

GRANDMA S

We're here!

PEMULIS stirs and opens a single eyelid. 

PEMULIS

Nice BBQ GRANDMA S!

GRANDMA S

Ya, K-FED built that for you when he was here yesterday. We're having NY steaks tonight with cold beer. I hope it's OK that the beer is ice cold?

PEMULIS

Fine by me.

JOELLE snaps out of her almost-slumber and gazes lovingly up at PEMULIS in the front seat. She looks at HELGA who is still sleeping. Everyone starts getting out of the SUBARU. The DOG goes crazy.

INT. HOUSE - STILL DAY

There is a man, GRANDPA S, sitting on the couch drinking a BEER and watching a CAR RACE. Inside the HOUSE it is clear that they are having some RENOVATIONS done; the WINDOW TRIM is not finished, and there is a giant SILO that could one day be a STAIR CASE and above it an additional room. The rest of the FAMILY enters from outside.

"CANADIAN HEAT WAVE"

The song BUNKBEDS by HAYDEN is playing just because. This SCREENPLAY abruptly ends because it turns out that it takes forever to write like this.
