MISU (V.O.)
Complications takes place in a science fantasy future where demons
fall in love with alien guys and the major question of every
intelligent well educated college student is, "Is this the party?"
Weird aliens are commonplace, the bizarre becomes the norm and it's
all a teenager can do to keep from being kidnapped. Why? Well,
that's complicated.

showers the hall with fragments. MISU looks up with a sheepish grin.

of this dump?
DEAN
screams in frustration! and storms out of building.
MEDIUM SHOT OF MISU, SPIKE AND SAM
they all shrug
ESTABLISHING SHOT - CLASSROOM
[Scene changes. Classroom, teacher droning on about something on the order of
subatomic nuclear physics. MANDY and MISU sit
together; SABURO is sitting in the� middle paying a reasonable
amount of attention, VINNY and MAT are sleeping (although VINNY
is actually watching� everything with his eyes slitted and is
taking notes.) TI� has his book open but has a Ms. Terra 2204
magazine (April issue) and is quite absorbed in it. SPIKE is
sleeping, SAM is sitting in back of SPIKE. SAM grabs SPIKE's hair
and picks his head up and slams it in the desk to wake him up.
The bell rings and everybody instantly hops up and stampedes
past the Professor.]
