2.

The camera pans left and zooms in on Elvin standing in front
of a stretch limousine. It was black and had gold trim
around the entire car.
                                                            
                       ELVIN
      (Standing proud by
       the rear end of
       the limousine)

The driver for the limo rolls his window and sticks his head
out.
                                                            
                       LIMO DRIVER
Take your hands of the limo before
I break them.
                                                            
Camera pans away from the limo to Chuckles.
                                                            
                       LIMO DRIVER
Get away from the limo! Now or
I'm gonna make chum out of you. Do
not point that camera over here
again. Got it?
                                                            
                       CHUCKLES
Don't mind him he's just a little
cranky, because he doesn't come
with the deal.
                                                            
                       STRANGER
      (From the back
       ground)
That's my car! You are
advertising my car for car jacking
prices!
                                                            

3.

                       ELVIN
      (waves the camera
       to him)
Well that's it for this edition of
Jack that Car! For the right
price of course!

Pack it up Dweeb! We need to make
like a bakery truck and haul buns.
                                                            
You see the camera shaking pointed towards the ground. The
three of them are yelling at each other as they are being
chased by the stranger.
                                                            
                       ELVIN
      (talking over his
       shoulder while
       running)
I hope you give us a try. Remember
cash gets results! Results are
just a phone call away.
                                                            
Elvin's phone starts ringing while he runs. You can only
see his ankles.
                                                            
                       ELVIN
Great! A happy new customer right
now.
                                                            
Elvin mumbles on the phone while running. Occasional "Ok"
and "I'll be there..."
                                                            
                       ELVIN
Go right at the light and turn
left at the first alley.
                                                            
They follow Elvin's orders and disappear down the alley.
                                                            
                       ELVIN
      (Elvin is talking
       from around the
       corner and down
       the alley.)
$3,000.00! We are on it. Just be
ready when we park it out front.
                                                            
The three of them come running out of the alley and form a
quick huddle in the street.
                                                            
                       ELVIN
      (All of them
       together)
Hup! Hup! Hike!
                                                            

4.

                       ELVIN
      (Elvin shouts
       above them)
Left Interference right end run
with key
                                                            
The three split up from the huddle and they start to run a
pattern like a football play. Dweeb ran down to the corner
and cut left making a bee line for the owner of the Alfa
Romeo who was standing in front of his vehicle. Chuckles
mean while has gone deep and run a post pattern behind the
owner of the Alfa Romeo.
                                                            
                       DWEEB
Clothes Line with Safety Check!
                                                            
                       CHUCKLES
Check!
                                                            
                       ELVIN
Check!
                                                            
Dweeb hits the driver in the chest as he charges him and
Chuckles goes low behind him but Elvin dives behind his head
to make sure there are no concussions.

Chuckles pulls the keys to the car out of the pocket of the
owner and passes them to Elvin who heads for the driver
seat. Just as he gets the car started the chauffer got out
of his limo. Too late! The car started up and Elvin was
out of there! The other two took off down the road and
disappeared in a flash.

The Alfa Romeo flew around the block and Elvin parked it in
front of the alley from earlier. He Climbed out and left it
running.

A second camera is required here to pickup all 3 of them
running. From here forward it is the second camera. Dweeb
is carrying the portable camera.
                                                            
                       ELVIN
      (He yelled over
       his shoulder
       while he was
       running)
Remember you got it here at
JackThatCar.com! This has been a
paid advertisement for Jack That
Car! A business dedicated to
taking the danger out of Joy
Riding.

Like the title. Cleave idea. Maybe as they drive off add the sound of distant sirens.
