A Sci-Fi comedy about aliens curious about what human beings do.

COACH JACOBS:

What was that move all about Sean!?!

MA-1 (Sean):

He wanted the ball, so I gave it so him.

COACH JACOBS:

There is no charity in this game, you punk!

MA-1 (Sean):

(Modest smile)

Why do they call the free throw line a charity line?

The coach looks up with arms up as if asking, why this?

SEVEN-FOOT PLAYER:

(Approaching Sean)

You must be from out of this world man. You never gave us the chance to prove yourself!

Sean with a puzzled look does not understand what the player said.

COACH JACOBS:

Okay, okay, that’s enough! Sean, do you know the basics and fundamentals of this game?

MA-1 (Sean Rock):

I think so.

COACH JACOBS:

(Disgusted)

AAAARGH! This one really pisses me off. You think so! You think so!

(Turning to Hill)

Will you come here!

(Hill runs over)

Where on earth did this guy come from? His skills are good for nothing! He only thinks he knows the game!

DAN HILL:

(Apologetic look)

Why don’t we give him a chance? Maybe he learned his skills only from a backyard court.

COACH JACOBS:

Well, you teach him! I don’t have the time to give milk to this baby of yours!

EXT. – OUTSIDE THE GYM

Dejected, Dan Hill goes out ahead of the three, gets in the car and slams the door. The aliens follow a few seconds later without any word from them.

DAN HILL:

(To Sean)

What happened in there? What was that all about? Do you really know how to play the game or just shoot baskets?

Sean & Chris:

We know the game but we just can’t play it the way you…

Scot stops them just in time . . .

SA-1 (Scot Nash):

What they mean is they can’t play rough or they’re trying to put a standard into the game.

DAN HILL:

(With a look of regret)

Are you all nuts? You’ll have to change the entire NBA rules, if you think you can!

SA-1 (Scot Nash):

Please take us back to L.A. We have to talk this one over.

DAN HILL:

Now… just wait a second there. How come Chris was saying “we” with Sean? Do you play the game too, Chris? Did I hit two birds with one stone?

The aliens are put in a dilemma. Sean and Chris at the rear seat lightly elbow each other for their blunder. Scot turns his head to them with a stern look.
