BIG DADDY follows ZORRO over to some rims sitting next to
the door of the building.
                                                            
                       ZORRO

yesterday from Florida.
Right now they're the only ones in
town like this.
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
      (walking over to
       the other rims by
       the fence)

                       ZORRO
Those are $3,500, they came from
LA.

                       BIG DADDY

If he's leave the women alone,
he'd be better.
                                                            
                       MOJO

                       PRETTY BOY RICK

paying for my food.
                                                            
                       MOJO
      (chuckles)
Come on man!
They run a grocery store, they're
probably for protection.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (shaking his head)
Nah, I've got a funny feeling
Mesah and Sardi are up to
something, trust me.
                                                            

5.

Pulling up in front of Rick's house:
                                                            
                       MOJO
I wouldn't worry about that too
much if I were you.
If they were up to something, they
wouldn't get away with it.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
Yeah man you're probably right.
Hey! Is the concert still on?

       a chair behind
       the engineering
       board)
I hope we don't stay long tonight,
I need some rest.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
      (seated at the
       engineering board)
Come on man we're headlining!
This shit has got to be right,
we've waited too long for this.
I run a business from 9am to 7pm,

Mojo walks into the room:

                       MOJO
What's wrong with you guys, I
could hear you coming down the
hall.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
Ant's whinnying again about how
tired he is.
                                                            
                       MOJO
When we get started he
ll be okay, right Ant?
                                                            
                       LITTLE ANT
      (yawns)
Sure man, let's do this.
                                                            
The beats start thumping and they begin to rap.
(Raps to be added)
                                                            
BIG DADDY enters the room; everybody stops and looks at him.
                                                            
                       MOJO
Sorry but this is not an open
rehearsal.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
It's okay Mojo, I invited him to
listen to us.
He's a customer of mine and a
music manager.
                                                            
                       MOJO
So you you're a manager, any big
names under your belt?
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
No big names yet, but I do manage
two groups, Mindset and Twista
Mic.
                                                            
                       LITTLE ANT
Twista Mic is a good group, I saw
them perform at the Forum.
Don't they suppose to be going to
New York to sign a deal?
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
      (smiling)
I see you're up on your news!
Yeah, we leave in three weeks.

                       BIG DADDY
      (interrupting the
       rehearsal)
Guys I like what I hear, why
haven't y'all gotten a manager?
                                                            
                       MOJO
We been getting shows through
people that know us and have seen
us perform.
Does this mean you're going to
manage us?
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
Now that's up to you guys.
                                                            
                       MOJO
      (addressing Ant
       and Zorro)
Well, what do you say?
                                                            
                       ZORRO
I say we give a chance, a
manager's fee is still ten percent
right?
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
      (chuckles)
Yes it is, I'll bring the papers
for you to sign to your next
rehearsal.
I don't have an office yet.
                                                            
Big Daddy walks to the door and turns around.
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
The concert you have already
booked, I'll make sure you're
supplied with whatever you need

                       BIG DADDY
That's exactly what I mean.
I know you're going to spend that
money on crack, but try not to
spend it all that's a start.
                                                            
                       STANKY MAC
      (sadly)
You won't be needing us anymore

                       BIG DADDY

do to keep a little money in your
pockets.
But you got to try to clean
yourselves up, it's not going to
happen in 2 or 3 days either.

my best, I can't speak for him
but I want to feel good again.

What's wrong man, are you in pain?
                                                            
                       CHINO
It's nothing, I'm alright I just
need some rest.
                                                            
Rick sat down next to him:
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
I remember 8 years ago when I was
a street punk.
You told me I had a choice, to
become something, or stay nothing.
I never thanked you.
                                                            
                       CHINO
Oh yes you did! You became a great
boxer.
It took a while, but you made it
and I'm proud of you.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
You know chino, after this fight I
want to do something for my
mother.
You know what I'm going to do?
                                                            
                       CHINO
No tell me.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
I'm going to send her on that
cruise she always wanted.
That's all she ever talks about
since pops died.
                                                            
                       CHINO
      (watching the
       world go by)
After Peggy died I buried myself
in the bottle.
Old wounds opened up again, the
nightmares came back.
                                                            

14.

                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (surprised)
Nightmares?
                                                            
                       CHINO
When someone dies by your hands,
you never forget it.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
That was an accident, my pops told
me all about it.
He loved to see you fight, his
favorite name for you was

       Bell)
And the other percentage?
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL
Iranians are not the only
terrorists.
We are not sure if it was
terrorism, any one can plant a
bomb.
                                                            
                       CAPTAIN MOSS

followed her.
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL

       bottle)
They tried to scratch off their
name, but left the doctor's name
on it.
                                                            
                       AGENT HOSKINS
      (addressing agent
       Bell)
What's the doctor's name?
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL
A doctor Hassain, why does that
name sound so familiar?
                                                            
                       AGENT HOSKINS
He's being investigated on over

I mean high powered weapons!
                                                            
                       CHINO
They could have been here for
anything Rick!
Maybe the other fellows worked
here, and they came to pick them
up!
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
I keep telling y'all something is
up, but I can't prove it.
                                                            
                       CHINO
I think that bombing incident the
other day have you spooked.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
I hope I am just spooked.

                       AGENT BELL

Got cha!
                                                            
He grabs his coat and hurriedly leaves his office.

AGENT HOSKINS is sitting at a desk in the main room having a
conversation with some of the other agents.

AGENT BELL stops at the desk and makes a phone call:
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL
      (on phone)
Hey Moss...we got the owner of the

                       AGENT BELL

                       AGENT HOSKINS
      (addressing agent
       Bell)
That was quick!
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL
Not quick enough!
I wonder how many is there with
him?
                                                            
                       AGENT HOSKINS
You think there's a cell of them
here?
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL
      (glancing at
       Hoskins)
Yes I do! Look at it this way.
The student that killed those
people at the college, the
bombing, the doctor and it all
leads back to this man.
                                                            
AGENT HOSKINS pulls slowly in front of the house.

They both gets out of the car with weapons drawn and goes to
the front door; Captain Moss and his officers arrive and
they surround the house with their weapons drawn.

Agent Hoskins knocks on the door twice and identifies
himself, there is no answer.

He kicks in the door, and enters the house cautiously.
                                                            
                       AGENT HOSKINS
      (weapon still
       drawn)
Seems like no one has been here
for days.
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL
      (angrily)
Dammit where are you?
                                                            
                       AGENT HOSKINS
      (patting Bell on
       the back)
Don't worry we'll get him!
The pressure is on, he'll make a
mistake and we're be there.
                                                            

30.

The agents come out of the house with weapons put away.
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL
      (addressing Moss
       and his men)
We're out of luck this time, no
one was here.
That means he knows we're looking
for him, there's got to be another
place.
                                                            
                       CAPTAIN MOSS
They runs a grocery store in the
Mound, my men have been watching
it but nothing has occurred.
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL
Keep watching it and let us know
if anything pops.
We're going to get these
son-of-a-bitches.

                       TERRORIST #1
      (addressing Mesah)
What are you thinking my brother?
You seem distant in our time of
destiny.
                                                            
                       MESAH
      (sadly)
I am distant my brother, for my
time has come.
                                                            
Mesah gets up and walks away as the man watches him.

Gentlemen, we have a terrorist
situation here.
I need all of you to be alert and
ready for anything.
                                                            
He gives the first officer a stack of pictures to pass back.
                                                            
                       CAPTAIN MOSS
The man you're looking at is Mesah
Hussuma a known terrorist.
He's psychotic and don't mind

Homeland Security has alerted the

Do you have a list of the ongoing
events?

other questions?
If not you're dismissed.

32.

                       PRETTY BOY RICK (cont'd)
saw ATF and FBI bringing out boxes
and weapons.
                                                            
                       MEKEIA
Mesah was always strange to me.
I would see him starring at people
as if he could tear them apart.
His eyes always looked evil to me.
                                                            
                       KENNON
But Mesah always talked to me,
he'd give me chips and candy
sometimes.
The other one was the one I didn't
like, he was always mean to
people.
                                                            
                       KENNON
      (addressing his
       dad)
Dad they're not going to kill us
are they?
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (hugging his son
       sitting next to
       him)
Son, no one is going to hurt you
or Mekeia, I promise you that.
                                                            
                       MEKEIA
      (addressing her
       brother)
Did you know that the fight was
cancelled?
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (surprised)
No, where did you hear that?
                                                            
                       MEKEIA
On the news, they said that
Monster Duncan refused to fight;
he said he wouldn't be able to
concentrate.
The promoters said they'll set
another date when this terrorist
thing is over.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
Did you hear anything about the
concert?
                                                            

33.

                       MEKEIA
The concert and basketball games
are still on as far as I know.
Why don't you call Mojo?
Is Kennon still going with us to
the concert?
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
No, Kennon is going out to mama's
house.
                                                            
                       KENNON
But dad I want to see the M-Town
Boyz.
You told me I could go!
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
I know I did Kennon, but that was
before all this terrorist stuff
happened.
There will be other concerts,
right now it's too dangerous.
                                                            
                       KENNON
But dad Mekeia is going!
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
Mekeia is grown and you're not.
Go pack your bag, you'll be out
there until this is over with.
                                                            
                       KENNON
      (leaving the room
       slowly)
Yes sir.
                                                            
There's a KNOCK AT THE DOOR:
                                                            
MEKEIA opens it; it's Rick's father.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
Thanks dad for dropping by, I know
you're tired and wants to get
home.
But it's just too much going on, I
know out there Kennon is safe.
                                                            
                       RICK'S FATHER
It's alright son your mother and I
will enjoy his company.
I'm off a few days too, we'll have
lots of fun.
                                                            

34.

Kennon comes into the room and sets his suitcase next to the
door.

Rick gives him a hug:
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
You take care of mom and dad out
there okay?
Mekeia and I are going to be
alright, just remember we love
you.
                                                            
                       KENNON
At least I'll see you fight.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (smiling)
That you will son!
Hey! I'm dedicating the whole
fight to you.
                                                            
That brought a big smile to Kennon's face as his grandfather
picked up his suitcase and they both started to leave out of
the door with Rick following them.
                                                            
                       MEKEIA
Have fun Kennon!
                                                            
 
INT. RICK'S FATHER'S CAR - DAY
                                                            
RICK'S FATHER and KENNON driving through downtown Memphis
when suddenly a building explodes as they passes by.

Rick's father struggles to keep the car in control; he pulls
over to the side of the street in a sigh of relief.
                                                            
                       RICK'S FATHER
      (very uneasy)
Kennon! Are you okay?
                                                            
                       KENNON
      (scared)
I'm alright grandpa, it's you I'm
worried about.
Can you still drive?
I think we'd better call daddy!
                                                            
                       RICK'S FATHER
No! Don't upset your father, let's
get out of here.
                                                            

35.

As they rode down the street police cars, ambulances and
other government vehicles were arriving at the scene of the
second bombing.

People were gathering around to help the injured and cars
were pulling over and stopping.
                                                            
As they drove farther from the bombing scene Kennon noticed
that his grandfather's knee was bleeding badly and he was in
pain.
                                                            
                       KENNON
      (concerned)
Grandpa, your knee is bleeding!
Why don't you pull over and call
dad?
                                                            
                       RICK'S FATHER
      (grunts)
I'm oaky! I just want to make it
home then I'll take care of it.
And when you talk to your father
don't tell him about this.
                                                            
Kennon has a worried look on his face, but dares not to say
anything else so he looks out of the window as they continue
to his grandmother's house.

                       ZORRO
I knew those people were crazy,
but not this crazy!
Don't they know they're going to
die?
                                                            
                       MOJO
What do they care?
To them it's all about hatred and
killing Americans.
                                                            
                       LITTLE ANT
      (jokingly)
So Zorro that means you're safe!

                       BIG DADDY
We got ten minutes, let's say a

As they begun to perform another song, shots rang out back
stage.

The AUDIENCE and the GROUP was stunned for a few minutes;
then three IRANIANS came onto the stage and pulled Mojo off
at gun point. The audience paniced and begain running from
the building.


39.


People were stampeding everywhere, and running over each
other
to escape the terrorists and gunfire.

Instead of running to the doors like others were; BIG DADDY
and RICK headed for back stage.

As they enters the hall they see weapons lying next to some
fallen terrorists and guardsmen.
                                                            
 
INT. BACK STAGE - NIGHT
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
      (looking at Rick)
You thinking what I'm thinking?
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (picking up some
       weapons)
Let's do this Big Daddy!
                                                            
Suddenly four TERRORISTS came out of the dressing room and
started firing at them, they returned the fire killing all
four terrorists.

BIG DADDY looks into the room and see MOJO, ANT and ZORRO
tied and gagged to some chairs.
He and Rick immediately frees them and they leaves the room,
cautiously looking around as they goes down the hall.

When they turned the corner they saw some of the other
performers dead.
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
We need to make it to that door
cause if we go back we can't get
out.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
      (picking up a
       weapon)
Someone's coming!
                                                            
About eight terrorist were chasing two GUARDSMEN and
shooting at them; one of them gets hit, he goes down in
pain.

ANT grabs the gun and starts to shoot wildly as he hollers
(RAMBO STYLE).
                                                            

40.

                       ZORRO
      (frantically)
Ant! No! Get down!
                                                            
But ANT kept on shooting; ZORRO ran out to him and knocked
him to the floor.

Then there was a click at the back of his head; Zorro did
not move and was frightened.

Then there was a shot and the terrorist fell to the floor.
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
      (kicks the body)
You're in the wrong country
sucker!
                                                            
                       MOJO
We need to get more weapons and
split up.
There's another door on that side,
me and Rick will work our way over
there.
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
Ant, Zorro are you guys with me?
                                                            
                       ZORRO
      (addressing Ant)
Don't go off like you did back
there, I can't keep saving your
ass.
                                                            
As they went their separate ways Mojo came upon a terrorist
that was badly shot up but not dead.

He starred at him and put pointed the gun at his face as the
look of anger came over his.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (addressing Mojo)
Don't do it man!
You're better than that, put the
gun away.
He's already dying man, don't do
it!
                                                            
RICK slowly pushes the gun from the man's face and urges
Mojo to continue to the other side of the building.

As they continues to the other side they meets up with six
guardsmen.
                                                            

41.

                       GUARDSMAN #1
We came back to find you guys,
where are the rest of you?
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
They're working their way to the
side door across the corridor.
                                                            
                       GUARDSMAN #1
Continue down this hall and you'll
see an exit; we're find your
partners and bring them back.
                                                            
As the GUARDSMEN passed the wounded terrorist and turned the
corner one of them was shot; Mojo turned around quickly and
angrily went back and shot the terrorist.

He helped the wounded guardsman up and he and Rick carried
him down the hall with them to the exit.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (addressing the
       wounded man)
Hang on, we'll get you some help
soon.
                                                            
They sets him down on the floor, Rick tears his already
ragged shirt and ties it tightly around the soldier's leg.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
This will slow the bleeding, come
on it's just a little farther.
                                                            
They gets the soldier to his feet and starts towards the
door.

A voice stops them:
                                                            
                       SARDI
      (wearing grenades
       and pointing a
       weapon at them)
From rappers to tin soldiers, what
a transformation.
But I'm afraid you won't live to
enjoy the perks.
                                                            
As he reached to pull a grenade pin he was shot by the
guardsmen returning with Big Daddy, Zorro and Ant.
                                                            

42.

                       MOJO
      (smiling)
Boy! Glad y'all came along, we
would have been dead for sure.

with weapons drawn they escorts the wounded soldier and the
M-Town Boyzs to one of their trucks.

There is still a lot of shooting and fighting going on
outside.
Both soldiers and civilians are lying in the parking lot
dead, some vehicles are shot up and smoking, it's a battle
field.
                                                            
As the soldiers get Mojo and the rest of the crew to the
medic truck a bullet barely misses Mojo's head.
                                                            
                       MOJO
      (angry)
That does it!
                                                            
He gets low to the ground and runs out into the parked cars,
Zorro, Ant, Rick and Big Daddy follows him.
                                                            
                       MOJO
Everybody got fresh weapons?
Let's finish helping our boys put
a lid on this.
Ant you come with me, Rick you and
Zorror work around that way.
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
What about me?
                                                            
                       MOJO
You stay here and help clear this
area.
I'm tired of being shot at by
these punks.
                                                            
MOJO and ANT is shooting at terrorists that is hidden behind
some trucks.

Bullets are flying all around as he and Ant scrambles for
cover.
                                                            
                       MOJO
We have to get out from over here,
they can see us.
                                                            

43.

                       LITTLE ANT
      (pointing)
If we can make it to that S.W.A.T.
truck, we can clearly pick them
all off.
                                                            
                       MOJO
Okay! Let's move it!
                                                            
ANT and MOJO run across an opening still shooting at the
terrorist behind the huge buses.

Meanwhile ZORRO and RICK have made it to the other side of
one of the buses.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (addressing Zorro)
I'm going to try and make it to
the back of that police car, that
way I'll have a shot at throwing
this grenade.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
A grenade! Holms are you crazy?
You don't know how to throw a
grenade?
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
Just cover me, okay?
                                                            
As RICK readied himself to pull the pin on the grenade he
noticed more Iranians coming to join the rest.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (hiding back down
       between the cars)
Dam! Where are all these folks
coming from, a terrorist machine?
                                                            
All of a sudden there was more shooting and the terrorists
were going down like flies.
A truck load of guardsmen pulled down on them; although some
of the soldiers were killed they managed to clear that area.
                                                            
Moments later Rick saw Mojo and Ant running out from the
cars in the direction of two terrorists that left the bus.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (running from
       behind the police
       car)
Mojo! Ant! No, no, no!
                                                            

44.

One of the terrorist shot Rick, he went down.
                                                            
ZORRO comes from nowhere shooting and killing the
terrorists; he then goes over where Rick is laying.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
      (upset)
Hold on Rick!
                                                            
ZORRO pulls RICK back behind the car; as he looks up he see
Big Daddy coming to help.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (in pain)
Oh I been shot!
Big Daddy am I going to live, oh
it burns!
My leg feels like it's on fire,oh!
                                                            
Two MEDICS come over to help Rick; Other soldiers were
walking around looking and checking the cars and trucks.
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
      (addressing the
       medics)
Did we get them all?
                                                            
                       MEDIC #1
      (wrapping Rick leg)
A grounds check is being conducted
now, so far it seems to be over.
                                                            
Zorro looks up and see Mojo and Ant walking towards them, he
run to them and gives them a hug.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
      (happy)
Hey y'all we did it!
We beat those son-of-a-bitches!
                                                            
                       LITTLE ANT
      (looking at Rick)
You going to be alright man?
                                                            
The medics get him to his feet and helps him to walk.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
Yeah it's just a leg wound, Ouooo!
Take it easy fellows, I got a war
wound now I'm a veteran.
                                                            
Everybody laughs and shakes their heads as they follows the
medics to the truck.
                                                            

45.

                       BIG DADDY
      (watching soldiers
       across the way)
Why are they dragging those bodies
over there?
                                                            
                       MEDIC #1
They're going to be tagged and
photoed to prove they're dead.
They are the leaders and their
seconds in command.
                                                            
Big Daddy walks over to view them; he looks down on them and
shakes his head then walks away.
                                                            
                       MOJO
Was it the store owners?
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
      (in disbelief)
Yeah it was them, you never know
who you're in the company of these
days.
All these people dead because of
them and their ignorance.
                                                            
                       LT. COLLINSWORTH
      (addressing the
       young men)
I've been ordered to get y'all
checked out and to a comfortable
place of your choice.
Will you please follow me?
                                                            
Big Daddy, Zorro, Ant and Mojo follows the Lieutenant as
Rick is taken to the hospital.
                                                            
 
INT. JEEP - NIGHT
                                                            
BIG DADDY, ZORRO, LITTLE ANT, MOJO and LT. COLLINSWORTH are
having a conversation about the terrorist incident as
they're being taken to a comfortable point.
                                                            
                       LT. COLLINSWORTH
      (curious)
The three of you have changed my
views on rappers, I know some good
ones are out here now.
And I feel good about being in
your presence, what made you guys
fight like you did?
                                                            

46.

                       BIG DADDY
It was a lot of reasons for me;
one being my friends was in
trouble and needed me.
                                                            
                       MOJO
I'm an American with a great
family, and I wanted nothing to
happen to them.
I considered this a mini war that
we had to win in order to survive.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
I go along with Big Daddy, I had
plenty of reasons to fight, but I
guess the main one was I'm
American and proud of it.
                                                            
                       LT. COLLINSWORTH
All of you are American heroes,
and you're not going to hear
anything less.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
We did what we had to do.
                                                            
Lt. Collinsworth turns into the parking lot of a downtown
hotel
where 6 soldiers was standing waiting for us.
                                                            
                       LT. COLLINSWORTH
This is where you'll spend your
down time, cleanup and get some
rest hip-hop fighters.
                                                            
Lt. Collinsworth salutes the three rappers and pulls off.

                       KENNON
Now I really have something to
write about in school, and my
father was part of it.

                       RICK'S MOTHER
Your father and I are so proud of
you.
But don't ever do that again!
I've never been so afraid in my
life looking at that TV last
night.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
      (taking his mom's
       hand)
Don't worry, from now on the only
fighting I'll do is in the ring.
My doctor says I'll be out of here

                       RICK'S FATHER
Where's your friends that fought
with you?

How's that leg doing?
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
It's better, I walked a while this
morning but it's still very sore.

                       AGENT BELL
Although some of the terrorists
escaped, we got most of that cell.
The prisoners we have are steady
giving us information on others,
we'll apprehend them soon.
                                                            
                       CAPTAIN MOSS
The best part about it is that we
cut the snakes head off.
And if it grows another one, we'll
cut it off too. I have to get back
to the office.
Hey! How about joining me for
beers this evening?
                                                            
                       AGENT BELL

didn't believe it was happening.
But when I saw the terrorists take
y'all from the stage, me and Big
Daddy just leaped into action.
                                                            

49.

                       ZORRO
      (taking a sip
       water from his
       bottle)
Man I never been so scared in my
life!
I thought they were going to shoot
us after tying us up.
                                                            
                       LITTLE ANT
They probably were, but got
distracted by Big Daddy and Rick
in the hall.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
Where is Big Daddy?
                                                            
                       MOJO
He had to go to the Mayor's office
to take care of some business.
He'll be here when he finishes.
How's your leg man, think you'll
be ready to fight in two months?
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
I hope so, the bullet bounced off
my bone and went out the side of
my leg.
I'm walking a better so, I feel
I'll make it.

Hey what's so funny?
                                                            
                       MEKEIA

He jumped over in the rose bushes,

She and Kennon leaves the room:

BIG DADDY comes through the door carrying an 18 pack of beer

                       BIG DADDY
One of the concert promoters
called me last night and told me
to expect an important phone call.
I got that call this morning,
you've been invited to open for a
major act on his concert tour.
                                                            
                       ZORRO
      (smiling and happy)
Yes! Who is this major act?
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
Until the deal is done, I can't
say.
But I guarantee you're going to be
shocked.
We got five months to get ready,
that will be a good time to debut
your new song.
                                                            
                       MOJO
Dam Big Daddy, you the man!
This is what we've worked so hard
for.

Man this happening so quick!
Dam right we'll perform! Yeah!
                                                            
Everybody is surprised by Ant's reaction; they are shocked
by his reaction because he's the one usually complaining.
                                                            
                       BIG DADDY
Seems like we are going to be
pretty busy in the coming months.
                                                            
                       PRETTY BOY RICK
Hey Big Daddy if y'all need my
help with anything, just let me
know.

We want you to concentrate on

I am very impressed and proud of
the things that have happened in
this great city---the NBA, the
National Boxing Association,,
great movies being made here and
now five young citizens risking
their lives for ours in the fight
against terrorism.
Thanks to them, the National
Guard, the MPD, FBI and others
this city is safe once again.
It's good to know that we have
people willing to stand up for
their countries, cities and
states, and looks for nothing in
return.
But tonight, we are giving them
something in return.
                                                            
He looks out over the crowd:
                                                            
                       MAYOR ASHTON
      (looking at a

takes the podium.
                                                            
                       CAPTAIN MOSS
      (comically
       speaking)
You know MPD can't let you escape
without pinning something on you.
                                                            
Our heroes and the audience both laughs:
                                                            
                       CAPTAIN MOSS
I never cared anything for rap or
rappers until a month ago, when
these young men risked their lives
to safe others against a cell of
terrorists.
I'm not going to take up a lot of
time, so I'm going to get right to
it.
On behalf of the Memphis Police
Department I be-store upon you
these "Medals of Valor."

salutes them.

MOJO waits for the crowd to settle down:
                                                            
                       MOJO
As we look back on the incident,
we didn't fight to stay alive.
We fought to save our city and the
people in it.
            (MORE)

55.

                       MOJO (cont'd)
It was a honor to fight beside
some of the best men and women in
the National Guard.
If it wasn't for God and them, we
wouldn't have made it.
So to us they're the real heroes,
and we'd like to say thank you for
saving our lives.
                                                            
As the M-Town Boyz walks off the stage the Mayor comes back
to the podium.
                                                            
                       MAYOR ASHTON
      (smiling and happy)
We can't say they weren't raised
the right way, it showed in their
actions.
Now that the technical part is
over, it's time to get down and
boogie.
This was not on the program, but I
want to hear some of that Memphis
rap.
So I bring to you, the M-Town
Boyz!!!!
                                                            
The M-Town Boyz looking surprised once again hits the stage,
this time to perform.
                                                            
The M-Town Boyz are performing and dancing to the beats as
the audience is also dancing and having a great time.

Rick's father takes his mother to the floor and starts to
get down as Kennon and Mekeia giggles at them.

After performing the three of them put their arms around
