[align=center]U.F.I and SLACKER MAFIA FILMS PRESENT[/align] [align=center]a FARRELLY BROTHERS FILM[/align] INT. BOWLING HEAVEN - LATE NITE JIM (Will Ferrell) is ready to close up when something catches his eye. It is the same ball from the flashback just sitting there. JIM Look at you, just taunting me. You want me to play don't you. Well alright I'll give you the satisfaction. JIM picks up the ball and walks to the last lane. He turns the lane on. JIM (CONT'D) Alright, it's just me and you. Let's see what you got. He throws the ball down the lane. The bowl goes right into the gutter. JIM (CONT'D) Dammit. He takes the ball off the return. He throws it again, this time with more determination. He hits two pins. JIM (CONT'D) Better than nothing. A shadowy figure appears out of the darkness. FIGURE You need to put spin on it. JIM Who are you? FIGURE The name's Wally Robertson. I'm the night janitor. JIM I'm -- WALLY (Chris Walken) Jim Hodges, I know. JIM How do you know? WALLY I've heard about the legend. JIM What legend? WALLY The legend of Gutterball. JIM looks at the ground disappointed. WALLY (CONT'D) Don't worry Jim. I'll teach you to bowl. WALLY steps to the line. He bowls, perfect strike. WALLY (CONT'D) Do you see how I put that spin on the ball. It adds accuracy. WALLY hands JIM the ball. WALLY (CONT'D) Now you try. JIM steps up. He bowls, it spins too much and goes in to the left gutter. JIM Figures. WALLY You're forcing it Jim. Just slide your wrist. JIM steps up again. This time he knocks eight pins down. He starts jumping up and down. JIM Yippey! I knock down lots of them. WALLY You sure did. You'll never knock these two down though. JIM Why do you say that? WALLY Because that my friend is the seven-ten split. The pins are too far apart. Give it a try anyway. JIM throws the ball, to WALLY'S surprise he picks up the spare. WALLY (CONT'D) For the love of Dukes of Hazard he got it. JIM looks at him arrogantly. WALLY (CONT'D) Son, you're a natural. JIM You really think so. WALLY looks at his watch. WALLY Well I got to get back to work. (beat) Before I go you promise me something. You'll meet me at lane fourteen every night at midnight. JIM This isn't gay is it? WALLY Not if you don't want it to be. I do get quite lonely. JIM I'll be here. WALLY And the gay stuff? JIM I'll pass. Sorry. JIM walks backward nervously. He then begins to sprint out. He doesn't read the pull sign on the door. He falls flat on his face. WALLY just turns around and continues speaking. WALLY (to himself) Poor smuck.
