Script:
Scene One: The Teacher is explaining the rules of the
fieldtrip. Meanwhile three girls are whispering together excitedly about it.
Kathryn: I
love fieldtrips, don’t you?
Rebekah: Yeah, but nothing
exciting ever happens on them.
Kathryn: What do you call
exciting?
Rebekah: Something other than
what usually happens.
Rachel: Like in books? And
Movies?
Rebekah: Exactly. Don’t you
think that would be awesome?
Kathryn: If something weird
happens during the fieldtrip?
Rebekah: Yeah!
Kathryn: I wouldn’t wish for it,
or it might happen!

Scene Two: (song
playing: “Rest Easy” sung by Andrew Peterson) The girls are walking
through the woods, but are getting lost in conversation. They gradually lag
farther and farther behind until one of them realizes what happened.
(Add lib)
Rebekah (stopping suddenly): Hey!
Kathryn and Rachel:
What?
Rebekah: Where is everyone?
Rachel (not alarmed): Oh they’re probably just up ahead looking at some
ferns or something. We’ll catch up to them eventually.
Kathryn: Next time they stop to
look at something we’ll come up behind them.
Rebekah (worriedly): I don’t know…what if we get lost?
Kathryn: We won’t get lost. All
we have to do if we don’t catch up is back trail ourselves to the beginning of
the path and wait for our teacher to realize we’re gone and come looking for
us. We’ll be fine.
(The girls walk for a little while. Rachel stops suddenly)
Rachel: I don’t think we’re on
the right trail. I’m not recognizing any of this.
Kathryn: Let’s go back. We’ll
wait for the rest of the group there.
(The girls start back, but Rebekah waits.)
Rebekah: Hold on you guys.
(The other girls stop)
Rebekah: Is it just me, or is
the ground shaking?
Rachel: It’s not just you…
Kathryn: Uhhh…that’s weird.
(Camera causes shaking effects and the girls start
panicking.)
Rebekah: Let’s get out of here!
(Girls run through brush, not paying attention to where
they’re going. One of the girls trips on a root and all three fall in a heap
and stay there. Suddenly the shaking stops. The girls look up from where they
were cowering and slowly stand up, brushing dirt and grass off their clothes.)
Kathryn (shakily to Rebekah): Well, you got your wish. Something weird did
happen. Where are we?
Rebekah: I don’t know.
Rachel: What happened?
Rebekah: I don’t know.
Kathryn: Was it an earthquake?
Rebekah: I don’t know.
Rachel: What…
Rebekah (interrupting Rachel): I don’t know!! Ok?
Kathryn (soothingly): It’s ok. We’ll figure this out eventually, right now
we need to calm down and think through our situation.
Rachel (plopping herself down on the ground and looking up at Rebekah):
Ok. So what’s the plan?
Rebekah: I don’t know.
Kathryn: Stop it.
Rebekah: No really! I don’t
know!
Kathryn: Right…so think of
something!
Rebekah: Ok, ok!
(The girls sit down-camera fades to black.)
