(WALT DISNEY PICTURES: On a night sky background, we see a star, a la Pinocchio. Then, some clouds appear, a la Mary Poppins, and a pirate ship, a la Peter Pan. We then see the castle, a la Cinderella, done in CGI, while different fireworks are appearing. A circular line is drawn over the castle (in the same vein as the previous logo), then the castle enters many dots from the bottom of the screen to reveal "DiSNEY", in the post-1979 Disney script logo font, albeit slightly revised. The circular line is nearly staying visible on the logo)
(PIXAR ANIMATION STUDIOS: We see the text: PIXAR. Then a lamp, named Luxo Jr., hops by. He stops once he notices the "I". He shakes his body and bounces on the "I" until it squishes it. Luxo Jr. looks around as the text "ANIMATION STUDIOS" fades in. He then faces the camera. The light slowly dims until it's completely dark)
(EXT. NEIGHBORHOOD – DAY. A bird lands on the ground. It pecks at something, then the head stays up and another head pecks at the ground. It turns and we see that it has two heads)
(It squawks and flies off....)
(A SCHOOL BUS makes it way down the street. Singing can be heard from the kids inside. Pan up to reveal "Frighton Elementary" on the side of the bus)
LITTLE MONSTERS: The neck bone's connected
To the head bone
The head's bone connected to the horn bone
The horn bone's right above the wing bones
(The bus pulls into a parking lot)
(The bus doors open and a THIRD GRADE CLASS OF MONSTER KIDS pour through, pushing and yelling and laughing and being generally chaotic)
Kid 1: (GROWLS)
Kid 2: Ah!
Kid 3: I scared you!
Kid 4: (laughing) No, you didn't.
Mrs. Graves: Okay! Remember our field trip rules, everyone. Uh, no pushing, no biting, and no fire breathing!
(One of the kids breathes fire on one of his friends)
Fire Student: (breathing fire) (ROARS)
(A TEACHER MONSTER, MRS. GRAVES, stands over him, giving him a stern look)
Mrs. Graves: What did I just say? (sigh) Eighteen, nineteen... Okay, we're missing one. Who are we missing?
(ON THE CLOSED BUS DOORS. A little green hand knocks on the windowed doors)
(ON MRS. GRAVES)
Mrs. Graves: (realizing - this isn't the first time...) Oh. Mike Wazowski.
(The bus doors open revealing a very, tiny, 8-year-old Mike Wazowski, smiling)
Young Mike: Thanks, Joe. Good luck finishing you crossword puzzle.
Mrs. Graves: Sorry, Michael. I didn't see you.
(Mrs. Graves approaches and Mike jumps down. When Mike hits the ground, we see how much bigger all the other kids are)
Young Mike: That's okay. When I was on the bus, I found a nickel!
(Mike walks away, holding the nickel)
Young Mike: (sotto) I wish I had pockets.
Mrs. Graves: (to the kids) Okay, everyone, partner up. Get your field trip buddy.
(ON Mike as he tries to buddy with the kids who all happen to be bigger than him)
Young Mike: Jeremy! You and me? Okay, no biggie. Haley? No? Pairing up with Claire? Great choice. She's a good egg. Russell. Mike? Wazowski? We car-pool? We're cousins.
Phil & Russell (Both): (high-fiving) Hey!
(Phil and Russell head off)
Young Mike: Okay. Good catching up.
(Everyone has paired up, leaving Mike on his own. For a second, Mike's smile falters)
(Mrs. Graves approaches and smiles bitter-sweetly)
Mrs. Graves: Well, Michael, it looks like it's you and me again.
Young Mike: (AGREES NERVOUSLY)
(Mrs. Graves takes Mike's hand)
(Mike sees the kids walking up ahead)
Young Mike: (to his teacher) Come on, Karen. We're falling behind.
(Mike tugs on Mrs. Graves' hand, pulling her toward the other students)
Mrs. Graves: (LAUGHING) Please don't call me Karen.
(As we crane up, REVEAL we're at Monsters, Incorporated)
(INT. MONSTERS, INC. – HALLWAY. Mrs. Graves's class is met by a monster TOUR GUIDE)
TOUR GUIDE: Now, stay close together. We're entering a very dangerous area.
(The field trip is entering a scare floor)
Tour Guide: Welcome to the Scare Floor.
(The students are in awe as they see the scare floor)
LITTLE MONSTERS: Wow!
TOUR GUIDE: This is where we collect the Scream Energy to power our whole world. And can anyone tell me whose job it is to go get that Scream?
Little Monsters: Scarers!
Tour Guide: That's right! Now, which one of you can give me the scariest roar?
Little Monsters: (raising hands) Me, me, me!
(Mike has his hand raised too)
Young Mike: Oh! Sir! Right here! Little green guy, two o'clock!
Kid 1: (ROARS)
Kid 2: No, it's like this. (ROARS)
Young Mike: Hey, guys, watch this one.
Kid 3: (ROARS)
Young Mike: Hey, I got a really good...
Kid 4: (ROARING)
Kid 5: (ROARING)
Young Mike: (ROARS LOUDLY)
(The kids turn around)
Little Monsters: (GASPING) Wow!
(The entire group of kids is staring at Mike, eyes wide. He is amazed, for the first time all eyes are on him. Then, Mike realizes the kids are actually looking PAST him. Mike turns and his eye goes wide too. A group of SCARERS are walking onto the scare floor - confident, cool, and awesome)
Young Mike: Whoa.
(One of the Scarers approaches the kids. He wears an old, worn-in MU cap)
Frank: Well, hey there, kids. Are you on a tour with your school?
Kids: (cheering) Yeah!
MRS. GRAVES: Yes. We're here to learn about Scream Energy and what it takes to be a Scarer.
Frank: Well, hey, you're in luck, because I just happen to be a Scarer. I learned everything I know from my school, Monsters University.
Young Mike: (in awe) Whoa.
Frank: It's the best Scaring School there is.
(Another scarer, sneaks up behind him and takes his hat)
Fear Tech Scarer: You wish! Fear Tech's the best.
(The MU scarer snatches his hat back, smiling)
Frank: Okay. You guys watch us and tell me which school's the best. All right? (WHISPERS) (he surreptitiously points to his cap) MU is.
(Employees (Scarers, assistants, can wranglers, etc.) start to stream onto the floor)
MALE SCARER SUPERVISOR: Let's go, everybody!
FEMALE MONSTER ON PA: West coast coming online. Scarers coming out.
(The tour guide ushers Mike and the students to a viewing area)
(ON Mike, studying everything on the scare floor. Not watching, he puts a foot past the line)
TOUR GUIDE: Oops. Stop right there. Don't cross over that safety line. Human children are extremely toxic.
(Mike steps back and watches all the activity, in awe. But just as the doors start to get wheeled onto the floor, the bigger kids push their way to the front, blocking Mike's view)
Kids: (excited walla) Look at that!
Young Mike: Whoa! Hey, guys, watch the eye! Ow!
(Mike pops out from the back of the crowd and falls on his butt, but pops right back up again)
LITTLE MONSTER 1: Look at that! It's amazing!
LITTLE MONSTER 2: I know!
Little Monsters: Wow!
MIKE: Excuse me. Fellas. How about we do tallest in the back? (GASPS)
(Mike is desperate to see. He jumps up, ducks down, peeks between legs and sees:)
(-a glimpse of a door being put into the door station)
(-a glimpse of a door's light glowing red)
(-a glimpse of a scarer warming up, snarling, etc.)
Mean Kid: Did you see that?
LITTLE MONSTER 3: Look, he's going to do a real scare!
Kids: (excited walla) Whoa!
(And then, Mike's view is blocked completely)
(MIKE SIGHS)
Mean Kid: Cool. I want to be a Scarer.
Kid 2: Yeah. Me, too.
(Mike gives it one more shot)
Young Mike: Come on, guys. I want to see.
Mean Kid: Out of the way, Wazowski. You don't belong on a Scare Floor.
Kids: (walla) Whoa! Cool!
(Mike backs away as his smile fades)
(Mike looks frustrated, not being able to see. Just then, a cart full of scream cans comes toward Mike. He gets an idea)
(ON Teacher)
(She tries to keep the kids together)
Mrs. Graves: Brian! Do not step over the line.
(One of them points to the scare floor)
Emmet: Mrs. Graves, Michael went over the line.
(Mrs. Graves' eyes go wide)
Mrs. Graves: (GASPS) Michael!
(They all see Mike watching the MU scarer as he opens the door to the human world and slinks inside. The door starts to close behind him. But not before Mike, moving fast, slips through the door and into the human world too!)
(INT. HUMAN KID'S ROOM – NIGHT. Inside the human kid's room, Mike hides in the shadows as the Scarer starts his stealthy approach to the kid. The Scarer is totally unaware that Mike is in the room)
(Mike's terrified, but the more he watches the Scarer, the more he gets caught up in the excitement and awe of it all)
(The Scarer is about to scare when suddenly the kid's bedroom door opens and the parents peep in. Mike is hiding right behind the door, inches away from the humans!)
(The Scarer hides too, blending into the shadows)
MOTHER: See? I told you. He's fine.
FATHER: Well, I thought I heard something.
(The parents close the door and the scarer re-emerges, continuing to build his scare)
(Mike watches the Scarer scratch the end of the bed)
(The kid hears this and rises up in bed. The Scarer slides under the side of the bed and then looms up over the kid)
(SCREAM!)
(ON Mike as he watches. His mouth falls open, in awe)
(INT. SCARE FLOOR – CONTINUOUS. The scream can fills to the top)
(The MU scarer steps through the door, a satisfied look on his face - a solid scare. The door shuts down)
(And then he stops in his tracks when he realizes there are dozens of people staring at him, panicked)
Frank: What?
(The MU scarer steps aside, revealing Mike smiling, a dazed, dreamy look in his eye)
(Mike is swarmed by angry people - his teacher, factory employees, etc.)
FEMALE MONSTER: You could have gotten hurt!
Crowd: What were you thinking? (walla) This is ridiculous, young man! You coulda got yourself killed, kid! Did you touch anything? Do you know what could have happened?
(Meanwhile, as the scarer who was in the room with Mike dons his MU hat, someone comes over and confers with him. The scarer looks over at Mike, putting things together)
(As the angry walla continues, the MU scarer approaches Mike again, sternly. Mike is still in awe of everything he just saw)
Frank: That was real dangerous, kid. I didn't even know you were in there.
(Mike looks at the scarer, ashamed)
(And then, the scarer can't help but smile, realizing something)
Frank: (impressed) Wow. I didn't even know you were in there. (CHUCKLES) Not bad, kid.
(He winks and slaps his MU hat on Mike, then crosses away)
Mrs. Graves: Michael, what do you have to say for yourself?
(Mike smiles the biggest, happiest smile you've ever seen)
Young Mike: How do I become a Scarer?
(Push in to a CU of the MU logo)
(The eye in the "M" looks from right to left and Mike pops up from behind it)
(TITLE: DISNEY PRESENTS:)
(Mike uses the "D" in Disney as teeth and frightens the credits off screen)
(Mike draws on a chalkboard. The chalk flies into the air and creates:)
(TITLE: A PIXAR ANIMATION STUDIOS FILM)
(Scare cards flash across the screen, with Mike drawing his own)
(Mike is studying with stacks of books around him)
(Mike's report card, A+, "horrifying." He bursts through it with a roar!)
(The letters from the card break up and fall into an envelope)
(Mike tears it open and he's ecstatic! He got into...)
(TITLE: MONSTERS UNIVERSITY)
(EXT. BUS. A bus comes to a stop)
Bus Driver: Monsters University! Anybody getting off?
(INT. BUS. A backpack and a suitcase appear in the aisle)
(REVEAL MIKE, beaming, brimming with excitement. He turns to face everyone on the bus)
Mike: (SIGHS) Well, everyone, I don't mean to get emotional, but everything in my life has led to this moment. Let it not be just the beginning of my dream but the beginning of all of our dreams. Gladys, promise me you'll keep auditioning. Marie, Mr. Right is out there somewhere. Phil, keep using the ointment till that thing goes away. I wish you all the best. Thank you all so much!
(No response from the bus crowd)
Bus Driver: (dead pan) I'm welling up with tears. Now, get off.
(Unphased, Mike exits the bus)
(EXT. BUS. Mike leaps down the stairs and gathers his bags)
(He stares up in awe....)
(REVEAL MONSTERS UNIVERSITY: The gate, with the campus beyond)
(EXT. CAMPUS. Mike walks onto a campus filled with monster students of all shapes and sizes. In the background, the grand, classic architecture of an Ivy League school)
Mike: Hello. How are you doing?
(A student on a bicycle whooshes by)
(Students play monster hackey sack in the quad as another student with several arms posts signs to a lamppost)
(A student on a skateboard whizzes by as a giant monster steps over Mike and moves to catch a frisbee)
Mike: (ground shaking vocs) Ah!
Frisbee Monster: Whoo-hoo!
Mike: (CHUCKLES)
(She catches the frisbee and sends it back to her friend)
(EXT. BRIDGE. Mike walks over a bridge on a small river)
COACH: Stroke! Stroke! Come on, put all you have into it! Stroke! Stroke!
(He looks down and sees more students, swimming into what must be an underwater section of the school)
(Mike checks his list:)
Mike: Okay! First thing on my list, get registered.
(A monster in a "Smile Squad" shirt steps up to Mike)
Jay the RA: Hey there, freshman. I'm Jay the R.A., and I'm here to say that registration is thataway!
Mike: Okay, Jay.
(Mike heads toward the registration area)
Jay the RA: Have a great first day.
(Mike steps up to the registration table)
Kay: Hey, I'm Kay! Here's your orientation packet.
Mike: Thanks, Kay.
Kay: You can drop your bags off here and get your picture taken with Trey.
(Kay motions toward Trey. Mike sits down to get his photo taken)
Trey: Say hooray!
Mike: Hooray!
(FLASH! Trey takes the photo. CUT TO an insert of Mike's ID card, the top of his head is the only part in the photo)
Mike: (is he upset?) I can't believe it. (thrilled) I'm officially a college student!
(He joins a freshmen tour group)
Fay: Okay, everyone, I'm Fay, and I'll be giving you your orientation tour on this perfect day!
(The TOUR GUIDE waves her flag)
(Mike is in awe)
(INT. SCHOOL OF DOOR TECHNOLOGY. The tour continues)
FAY: Here are the labs where students learn to design and build the doors to the human world.
(We see a door being processed)
Students: (tour walla) Wow...
(A Professor swipes their I.D. and enters the work area)
Fay: Looks like the professor is about to test a door!
(A door is activated, and Mike catches a glimpse of a child's bedroom)
(INT. CAFETERIA – MOMENTS LATER. The tour guide leads Mike and the other freshmen through the cafeteria)
Fay: The MU cafeteria serves a full buffet, three meals a day. I personally believe we have some of the best chefs in the world.
(We see a student dump food into a trash can. A food worker then picks up the trash can and dumps it back onto the buffet)
(EXT. CAMPUS – MOMENTS LATER)
Fay: The campus offers a wide variety of majors, but the crown jewel of MU is the Scaring School.
Students: (walla, in awe) Whoa!
(The tour guide leads her tour away, leaving Mike alone in awe of this famous building)
(EXT. QUAD – MOMENTS LATER. Mike passes by a series of tables, each one manned by students trying to interest freshmen in their respective clubs)
(The Debate Team)
Debate Member: Welcome to the debate team. We're happy to have you.
Debate Member 2: I disagree for the following reasons. True happiness is a theoretical construct...
(Mike continues to walk by the tables and an eye appears behind him. He turns and he is eye to eye with another monster)
Eye Monster: Hey there! Keep your eye on the sky at the astronomy club!
(The Art Club)
(A mop-looking monster splashes pink paint over his head, covering himself. He then splatters his head on a canvas, creating "art" while another member begins to play the drums)
(The Improv Club)
Improv Student: Hey, hey, hey! Come join the improv club. You'll wish you were a... Never... Always... Ah, dang it!
(Mike passes by with a smile - he's not interested, but loving the variety of options, the huge world he's entered)
(GREEK COUNCIL table)
Female Announcer: MU's Greek Council.
(Yet again, not for Mike)
(Until, just as he passes by...)
Female Announcer: We sponsor the annual Scare Games.
(That gets Mike's attention. He stops--)
Mike: (STAMMERS) The Scare what now?
(The Goth Greek Council president Claire Wheeler and the jock Greek Council vice president Brock Pearson pass Mike a flyer featuring the games)
Male Announcer: (explosive energy) The Scare Games! A super-intense Scaring competition!
Female Announcer: (ominous, calm) They're crazy dangerous, so anything could happen.
Male Announcer: (explosive energy) A bunch of guys went to the hospital last year!
Female Announcer: (ominous, calm) You could totally die.
Male Announcer: (explosive energy) And it's worth it. You get a chance to prove that you are the best!
(Mike stares down at the flyer, intrigued)
MIKE: Cool.
(INT. DORM HALLWAY – MOMENTS LATER. The RA hands Mike a key)
MALE DORM PROCTOR: Wazowski, Room 319. You know, your roommate is a Scaring major, too.
(Excited, Mike grabs his keys from the RA and excitedly heads off toward his room)
Mike: "Hello, I'm your roommate." Oh, that's too bland. (exhale) Don't force it. Just let it happen. Your lifelong best friend is right behind this door. (EXHALES SLOWLY)
(Mike swings open the door and the monster in his room is... RANDY BOGGS)
(Randy is hidden in the shadows, then leaps forward with a friendly hand outstretched)
Randy: Hey there. I'm your roomie. Name's Randy Boggs. Scaring major.
Mike: Oh! (STAMMERS) Mike Wazowski, Scaring major.
Randy: I can tell we're going to be best chums, Mike. Take whichever bed you want. I wanted you to have first dibs.
(A student behind Randy drop some boxes. He disappears)
Randy: (startled voc) Ahh!
(Randy reappears)
Mike: (GASPS) You just disappeared.
Randy: Sorry. (growling increasingly agitated) If I do that in Scaring class, I'll be a joke.
Mike: No, it's totally great. You got to use it.
Randy: Really?
Mike: Yeah, but lose the glasses. They give it away.
(Mike heads into the room. Randy takes off his glasses and squints, looking unintentionally evil)
Randy: Huh. (squinting voc)
(Randy closes the door)
(INT. MIKE AND RANDY'S DORM ROOM. Mike finishes putting the last of his many scaring posters up, placing books on a shelf, along with Little Mikey and pinning up the Scare Games flyer)
(He then consults his checklist)
MIKE: Okay! Unpack. Check. Hang posters. Check. Now I just need to ace my classes, graduate with honers, and become the greatest Scarer ever.
Randy: Boy, I wish I had your confidence, Mike. Aren't you even a little nervous?
Mike: Actually, no. I've been waiting for this my whole life.
(Mike holds the MU hat he got from the scarer when he was a kid. He walks toward the window)
Mike: I just can't wait to get started.
(We see the scare school in the distance)
(EXT. SCARE SCHOOL – MORNING. The sun rises over the campus, as students make their way to class)
(GONG! The bells in the campanile sound the hour, signalling the start of the day)
(A slug student realizes he's late)
Slug: Oh, man! I can't be late on the first day!
(He pumps his arms furiously but doesn't get very far)
(EXT. SCHOOL OF SCARING. Mike and Randy head into the School of Scaring with the other students)
(Students touch a statue as they pass by – an MU superstition. Mike has to jump up a little to reach it, but he touches the statue too)
(INT. SCHOOL OF SCARING. Mike takes in the enormous rotunda-style classroom)
Mike: Wow.
(Busts of distinguished scare professors and alumni sit on pedestals near the windows. In front of each one is a scream can)
(Mike takes a seat, much bigger monsters on either side of him. A couple of them look down at Mike, amused)
Big Student 1: (SCOFFS)
Big Student 2: You got to be kidding me.
(Randy sits next to Mike)
Randy: I'm so nervous!
Mike: Relax. It will be fine.
(A large, tough, drill sergeant monster, PROFESSOR KNIGHT, addresses the class)
Knight: Good morning, students. Welcome to Scaring 101. I am Professor Knight. Now I'm sure all of you were the scariest monster in your town. Well, bad news, kids. You're in my town now, and I do not scare easily. (GASPS)
(Suddenly, a beam of light falls over Professor Knight)
Students: (gasps)
(He stops and looks up to a now empty window. A shape flies around the room, closing the curtains and lands with a clatter behind him)
Students: (walla) Dean Hardscrabble/That's really her.
(The class watches as a form steps out from the light revealing a tall dragon woman with large bat wings, DEAN HARDSCRABBLE)
Knight: Dean Hardscrabble. This is a pleasant surprise.
(ON Mike watching Hardscrabble heading across the room, her chilling insect legs tapping against the floor. Mike's smile brightens)
Mike: (whispering to Randy) She's a legend. She broke the all-time Scare Record with the scream in that very can!
(ON Hardscrabble)
(She adjusts her scream can slightly)
Hardscrabble: I don't mean to interrupt. I just thought I'd drop by to see the terrifying faces joining my program.
(ALL MURMURING)
Knight: Well, I'm sure my students would love to hear a few words of inspiration.
Hardscrabble: (addressing Professor Knight) Inspiration? Very well.
(She addresses the class)
Hardscrabble: Scariness is the true measure of a monster. If you're not scary what kind of a monster are you? It's my job to make great students greater, not make mediocre students less mediocre.
(The class remains nervous)
Hardscrabble: That is why at the end of the semester there will be a final exam. Fail that exam and you are out of the Scaring program.
(The class reacts)
Students: (GASPS) What?
(ON Mike, he looks nervous)
(ON Hardscrabble)
Hardscrabble: So, I should hope you're all properly inspired.
(The Dean flies out of the top of the building. The class is in shock)
Students: (walla)
(Professor Knight, steps forward)
KNIGHT: All right. All right. Who can tell me the properties of an effective roar?
(There is a beat, everyone is terrified, then...a familiar green arm shoots up in the air)
Knight: Yes?
Mike: (catches his breath) There are actually five. Those include the roar's resonance, the duration of the roar, and the...
Sulley: (ROARING)
(A booming roar stops Mike mid-sentence, blowing everyone in the room away)
(REVEAL a disheveled 18-year-old SULLEY, stumbling into class, late)
Sulley: Whoops. Sorry. I heard some say "roar," so I just kind of went for it.
Students: (chuckling, impressed)
(Sulley starts to slide down the row of students, trying not to squish people as he goes by)
Sulley: (getting by student) Oh, excuse me, sorry. I didn't mean to scare you there. (to students) Hey, how you doing?
Knight: Very impressive, Mister...
Sulley: (to Professor Knight) Sullivan. Jimmy Sullivan.
Knight: Sullivan. Like Bill Sullivan, the Scarer?
Sulley: Yeah. He's my dad.
Students: (impressed walla) No way, whoa!
Big Student 1: He's a Sullivan!
Knight: I should have known. I expect big things from you.
(Sulley reaches his seat and looks back to Professor Knight confidently)
Sulley: Well, you won't be disappointed.
(Mike interrupts)
Mike: Uh... I'm sorry. (STAMMERS) Should I keep going?
Knight: No, no. Mr. Sullivan's covered it.
(Sulley shoots two finger pistols at Professor Knight)
Knight: Huh. Everyone take out you Scaring textbooks and open them to chapter one.
(Mike sits down, his moment stolen)
Sulley: Hey, bub. Can I borrow a pencil? I forget all my stuff.
(A student hands Sulley a pencil)
Sulley: (picking his teeth) Ah! All right. Yes. There we go. That will get it. Mmm... Yeah.
(Mike is annoyed)
(INT. MIKE AND RANDY'S ROOM. Mike pins up his calendar, covering the Scare Games flyer)
RANDY: Come on, Mike. It's a fraternity and sorority party. We have to go!
(Mike flips to December and marks the date for the Scaring final)
Mike: If we flunk that Scaring final, we are done. I'm not taking any chances.
(Mike goes back to September and crosses out the first day of school)
RANDY: You've got the whole semester to study, but this might be our only chance to get in good with the cool kids. That's why I made these cupcakes.
(Randy holds up cupcakes that say spell out "BE MY dAL." Randy notices the mistake then turns the cupcake to read "PAL.")
Randy: Oops. (CHUCKLES) That could have been embarrassing.
(Mike is too excited about studying to party)
Mike: When I'm a Scarer, life will be a nonstop party. Stay out of trouble, wild man.
(Randy giggles and heads out, closing the door behind him)
Randy: (CHUCKLES) Wild man.
(Mike laughs to himself)
(He gets to work, opening his scaring book)
(A strange noise draws his attention to the window. He looks back to the window when a strange pig-faced monster animal suddenly pops up and stares him in the face)
Mike: What the...
(Suddenly, the pig is pushed through the window and into Mike's room)
Mike: (SCREAMS)
(The pig starts running all over the room. Then a big blue hand rises into view and grabs the windowsill)
Sulley: (pulling up efforts) Archie!
(BOTH SCREAM)
(With a grunt, Sulley falls into the room)
(Sulley lands with a thud on the floor. The pig runs over his stomach and underneath the bed)
Mike: Hey! What are you...
Sulley: (SHUSHING)
(Sulley ducks down under the window. Mike hops down from the chair)
(Mike is shocked that he's been shushed)
Mike: Wait... You're shushing me? Hey! Hey! You can't...
(Sulley puts a hand to Mike's mouth, silencing him)
Mike: (fingers in his mouth) (MUFFLED MUTTERING)
(Sulley looks out the window)
(Sulley's POV: FOUR BIG FEAR TECH MONSTER (in letterman jackets) run by, scanning the campus)
MONSTER 1: Where did he go?
MONSTER 2: He's dead meat.
Monster 3: That guy's in big trouble.
Monster 1: Yeah, he is.
MONSTER 4: Hey, guys! Over here!
(ON Sulley who wait until they're out of sight, then laughs)
Sulley: (CHUCKLES) Fear Tech dummiers.
Mike: (MUFFLED PROTESTS)
(REVEAL Mike, Sulley's hand still clamped over his mouth)
Sulley: Oh, oh! Sorry about that, buddy.
(Sulley releases Mike)
Mike: (gasping) Why are you in my room?
(Sulley looks around the room)
Sulley: Your room? This is my... This is not my room. (then) Archie! Come here, boy.
Mike: Archie?
(Sulley kneels down trying to grab Archie from under the bed)
Sulley: Archie the Scare Pig. He's Fear Tech's mascot.
Mike: Why is it here?
Sulley: (SNIGGERING) I stole it. Going to take it to the RORs.
Mike: The what?
Sulley: (bragging) Roar Omega Roar. The top fraternity on campus. They only accept the highly elite. (bragging) Okay, I'll lift the bed, you grab the pig.
Mike: What? No, no... Oh! What...
Sulley: (fast) Ready? One, two, three.
(Sulley lifts the bed with one hand and shoves Mike under with the other)
(The bed bumps and bucks as Archie and Mike struugle underneath)
Sulley: That's it. Don't let go. Careful. He's a biter.
(A CHOMP sound)
Mike: (pained) Ahhh!
(Suddenly Archie darts from under the bed, yanking a battered Mike behind him)
(Archie jumps on Sulley and runs all over him)
(Sulley falls as Archie leaps to the bookcase)
(Sulley climbs Mike's bookshelf to get Archie)
Sulley: I got him!
(The bookshelf comes crashing down, everything falling onto Sulley)
Sulley: Uh-oh! Whoa! (falling then laughing) That was awesome! What am I doing? James P. Sullivan.
Mike: Mike Wazowski.
(Mike tries to show Sulley to the door)
Mike: Listen, it was quite delightful meeting you and whatever that is, but if you don't mind, I have to study my Scaring.
Sulley: (BLOWS RASPBERRY) You don't need to study Scaring. You just do it.
Mike: Really? I think there's a little more to it than that. But, hey, thanks for stopping by.
(Archie jumps down off the desk with Mike's "MU" hat in his mouth)
Mike: (to Archie) (GASPS) Let go of that!
(Mike lunges for Archie, but Archie leaps out the window)
Mike: My hat!
Sulley: My pig!
(EXT. CAMPUS. Sulley dashes out of the dorm first, slamming the door in Mike's face)
(The chase continues....)
Sulley: Hey! Come here! (laugh)
Mike: (running efforts) Hey! Catch it! Come back here!
(Sulley is having a blast. Mike leaps on to Archie, but Archie keeps running, now with Mike on top of him)
Sulley: Yeah! Ride it to Frat Row!
(ON Mike as he tries desperately to steer Archie through campus)
(ON a portentous monster who is playing guitar for a group of girls)
Guitar Monster: Tentacles and serpent's wings, they...
(Mike and Sulley burst through disrupting the song)
(INT. FRAT ROW - CONTINUOUS. RUSH WEEK. Archie runs toward frat row with Mike still on his back. Sulley follows)
Mike: (riding vocs) WHOOOAAAA...
Sulley: WHOOOOOOOOO!
Mike: (breaths) WOW!
(Archie runs right through a fraternity house party)
(INT. FRATERNITY HOUSE - CONTINUOUS. Mike and Sulley head into the party and barrel through. A student hangs from the ceiling, having a great time)
Student: (swinging vocs) Woo hoo!
(Mike is barely hanging on to Archie as he runs through a living room. They enter a game room, Mike tumbles across a table and lands right back onto Archie)
(Sulley jumps over the table but crushes it and grabs a piece of pizza on his way)
(Mike comes out of the party and runs right into Randy, who's holding out cupcakes)
Randy: Cupcake?
Mike: AH!
Randy: ACH!
(The cupcakes rain down on Randy's head. Sulley runs past and jumps over a railing)
(EXT. FRATERNITY HOUSE. Mike rides Archie through a dance party)
(He collides with a guy playing football and falls off the pig)
Football Student: (impact voc) Hey!
(Sulley leaps over Mike as he's down and continues after Archie)
(Mike sees a trash can at the end of a line of bikes. He grabs the football and aims for the bikes....)
(Sulley almost reaches Archie and dives for him, but misses)
(The bikes fall over like dominoes, knocking the trash can and rolling it around just in time to catch Archie as he runs by)
Mike: Got it!
(Mike picks up the pig and grabs the hat, beaming)
Mike: Ha ha! (being picked up vocs) Woohoo!
(Just then, Sulley grabs both of them and hoists them into the air, like a trophy)
Sulley: Fear Tech's mascot! MU rules!
(Cheers erupt as MU students notice Mike and Sulley with Archie)
Crowd: (walla) Yeah!
(Sulley puts Mike down and the crowd surrounds them, congratulating them. Mike grabs his hat. Sulley hands the pig to a group of students who slap a "MU" sticker over his Fear Tech saddle)
(For Mike, who was annoyed to be on this wild pig chase, the adulation of the crowd changes things. He soaks it up, happily surprised)
Crowd: (CHANTING) MU! MU! MU!
(The JOX, and another fraternity approach the two of them)
JTC PRESIDENT: Did you see him catch that pig? You are Jaws Theta Chi material, freshman.
Mike: Oh, thanks. I don't know...
(The fraternity brothers walk right past Mike to Sulley)
Frat Brother: No, no, no. He's an Omega Howl guy.
JTC President: Back off. We saw him first.
Frat Brother: No way. We did!
(Mike notices they're fighting over Sulley, when suddenly a voice calls out)
JOHNNY: I'll take it from here, gentlemen.
(Everyone turns to see a huge monster with large horns and a protruding lower jaw flanked with terrifying fangs: JOHNNY. He steps forward parting the crowd. Johnny and his gang wear letterman jackets that read "ROR.")
Students: (sotto, impressed) The RORs...
(Johnny approaches Sulley)
Johnny: Johnny Worthington, president of Roar Omega Roar. What's your name, big blue?
(The other fraternities slink away)
Sulley: Jimmy Sullivan. Friends call me Sulley.
(Sulley reacts pleasantly surprised)
Chet: This guy's a Sullivan? Like the famous Sullivan? I can't believe it! That is crazy! (LAUGHING)
Johnny: (dead pan) Chet, calm down.
Chet: (cowering) I'm sorry.
Johnny: Sulley, any freshman with the guts to pull off a stunt like that has got "Future Scarer" written all over him.
(Sulley's swept toward the ROR house, following after Johnny, and the ROR brothers. Mike follows after him)
Mike: (chuckle, wanting to join in) Hey, did you see me ride the pig? That took guts.
(Mike is stopped by one of Johnny's thugs)
Chet: Slow down, squirt. This party is for Scare students only.
(Johnny leans down to Mike's level)
Johnny: Oh, sorry, killer, but you might want to hang out with someone a little more your speed. Uh... They look fun!
(Johnny points to Oozma Kappa; a group of loser monsters standing by a table that says Oozma Kappa. It's covered with balloons and cake)
Don: Oh, hey there. Want to join Oozma Kappa?
Squishy: We have cake.
(A monster eats the entire cake in one bite)
(A balloon deflates and lands on Squishy's face)
Johnny: (condescending) Go crazy.
(Johnny starts to walk away....)
(Mike is stunned. He can't be serious)
Mike: Is that a joke?
(Johnny stops, annoyed)
Johnny: (annoyed sigh) Sulley, talk to your friend.
(Johnny looks to Sulley with a pained smile)
(Sulley looks back and forth between the cool RORs and Mike)
Sulley: (to Johnny) Oh, he's not really my friend, but sure. (to Mike) You heard him. This is a party for Scare students.
Mike: I am a Scare student.
Sulley: I mean for Scare students who actually, you know, have a chance.
(Burn, the ROR brothers laugh. This stops Mike, his eye narrows)
Chet: Aw, snap!
Mike: My chances are just as good as yours.
(Sulley get's embarrassed, frustrated)
Sulley: You're not even in the same league with me.
Mike: Just wait, hotshot. I'm going to scare circles around you this year.
(Sulley looks surprised, and a little embarrassed to be called out in front of the RORs, but he laughs it off)
Sulley: (CHUCKLING) Oh, okay. I'd like to see that.
Mike: Oh, don't worry. (to himself putting his hat on and walking away) You will.
(In the BG, the RORs put their arms around Sulley and usher him into the fraternity house)
(INT. SCARE CLASSROOM. The students are standing around Professor Knight)
KNIGHT: Ready position. Common crouch.
(They quickly show the pose. The professor makes adjustments)
Knight: I want to see matted fur and yellow teeth.
(Moving onto the next pose...)
Knight: Basic snarl.
(Drill sergeant, making them the best they can be)
Student 3: (growl)
Knight: Show me some slobber.
Mike: (growl)
Knight: Drool is a tool, kids. Use it.
Sulley: (ROARS SOFTLY)
(He surveys the students and comes to Sulley)
Knight: Now here is a monster who looks like a Scarer.
(Mike looks over to Sulley....Sulley looks back, points finger pistols at Mike)
(Mike, frustrated, turns back into the position with even more gusto)
Knight: You want a hope of passing this class, you better eat, breathe, and sleep Scaring.
(ON Mike updating his calendar)
(In September, he marks out his second day of class)
(INT. LIBRARY. Mike pulls a book off the shelf and adds it to a stack of books he is carrying. He grabs another book as he keeps walking)
(He climbs a ladder to grab a book on the top shelf and adds it to his very tall stack. He grabs another book out from under a sleeping student)
(Mike studies away in the library, memorizing the different scares)
(INT. DORM ROOM. Mike practicing his scare faces in the mirror)
Mike: (GROWLS)
(He pulls out his retainer to make his face more scary)
Mike: (GROWLS)
(INT. LIBRARY AND REC HALL. Sulley is in the library and he finds a "Scaring Fundamentals" book. But he uses the book to steady a ping-pong table. It's ready to play on now)
(Sulley bounces a ball, beer-pong style. He bounces it into the mouth of a sleeping monster with a tic-tac-toe grid on his chest)
(Sulley's ball wins the game)
Sulley's Friends: (walla) Yeah!
Sulley: Yeah!
(EXT. QUAD. We cut to Mike tossing a ball over his head as Randy quizzes him)
MIKE: Give me another one.
Randy: Fear of spiders.
Mike: Arachnophobia.
Randy: Fear of thunder.
Mike: Keraunophobia.
Randy: Fear of chopsticks.
Mike: Consecotaleophobia. What is this, kindergarten? Give me a hard one.
(EXT. MU ARENA. On the field, the MU team scores a touchdown. Monster cheerleaders start to cheer, the MU band strikes up)
CHEERLEADERS: (cheering) Go Monsters U! You know what to do!
(A player catches a football, then a bigger player picks him up, then a GIANT player picks them up and runs through the field trampling every player)
(Pandemonium in the stands. Sulley and his ROR friends CHEER. PAN DOWN to Mike and Randy in the stands. Mike studies his scaring textbook, oblivious to the game and cheering around him)
(A drink falls on Mike and he looks up from his book. But then goes back to his book as the crowd cheers again)
(Wipe cut: October calendar page)
(INT. CLASSROOM. The Professor lists multiple choice answers on the chalkboard)
Mike: The answer is C, fangs!
Knight: Well done, Mr. Wazowski.
Mike: A bowl of spiders.
Knight: Correct!
Mike: A clown running in the dark!
Knight: Right again.
Mike: Warts, boils, and moles, in that order.
KNIGHT: Outstanding!
(Sulley looks over at Mike annoyed)
(INT. GYM. Mike and Sulley are next to each other on the treadmills. They start to compete with each other. Mike speeds up so Sulley speeds up too. But it is too much for him and he falls off the treadmill)
(Mike laughs but then falls off too, spinning and then flying off)
(EXT. CLASSROOM STEPS. Sulley walks down the stairs toward Johnny holding his exam results. Sulley gives Johnny a high five. Johnny puts his arm around Sulley encouragingly until Mike rushes down the stairs and reveals his "A+" exam and runs off)
(A ROR brother grabs the exam out of Sulley's hands and shows Johnny he got a "C-." Sulley grabs it back and walks away, "no big deal." Johnny and the RORs exchange concerned looks)
(The calendar shows November is almost over....)
(INT. DORM HALL. Close on a work-study timecard for Michael Wazowski. Mike pulls it out and punches in)
(Mike is studying again as he buffs the floor)
Mike: (practice roars)
(Monsters have to jump out of the way as he drives by because he is not paying attention)
Students: (leaping out of the way) Ah!
(Mike runs over several monsters, but is so focused on his book he doesn't notice)
(Monsters continue walking past and one slips on the slick floor)
(He runs over more monsters as he practices scary faces. The Wilhelm scream is heard)
Mike: (practice roars)
(INT. CLASSROOM. Mike demonstrating the different scares for the professor)
Mike: (Roar for each scare, soft)
Knight: Ogre slump.
Mike: (Roar for each scare, soft)
Knight: Zombie snarl.
Mike: (Roar for each scare, soft)
Knight: Dominant silverback gorilla.
Mike: (Roars for each scare, soft)
(The professor is thoroughly impressed)
Knight: That is some remarkable improvement, Michael.
(Sulley attempts to make a scare face)
Sulley: (ROARS SOFTLY)
Knight: One frightening face does not a Scarer make, Mr. Sullivan.
(Sulley looks over at Mike, disappointed in himself. Mike smiles at Sulley and points finger pistols at him)
(The scare final is coming up. Mike looks at his calendar and circles the date in red)
(EXT. SCHOOL OF SCARING - DAY. Mike and Randy approach the School of Scaring, nervous but determined. They quiz each other on the way)
Mike: (in the background) A Tauntaun grimace with extra slobber.
Randy: You got it!
Mike: That's what I'm saying.
(Sulley scowls as he watches from afar with the RORs)
Sulley: (to the RORs) I am going to wipe the floor with that little know-it-all.
(Johnny puts his arm on Sulley's shoulder.
Johnny: Yes, you are, big blue.
(Johnny removes Sulley's ROR jacket. Sulley's confused)
Sulley: Hey, wait. What are you guys...
Johnny: It's just a precaution. RORs are the best Scarers on campus, Sullivan. Can't have a member getting shown up by a beach ball.
(Johnny and Sulley look toward Mike as he enters the School of Scaring)
Randy: (in the background) Whoa! Amazing...
Mike: (laugh) Whoo-hoo! I am on a roll.
Sulley: I'm going to destroy that guy.
Johnny: (re: jacket) Well, then you'll get this back right away. It's time to start delivering on that Sullivan name.
(Sulley's face drops. He tries to put on a confident face, but we can see it's a struggle)
(INT. SCARE CLASS. Professor Knight addresses the class for their final)
Knight: Today's final will judge your ability to assess a child's fear and perform the appropriate Scare in the Scare Simulator.
(ON THE SIMULATOR - a simulated human child's bedroom, complete with robotic child, much more low tech then we'll see in Monsters, Inc.)
(ON THE STUDENTS - staring at the simulator, nervous)
(ON KNIGHT - lifting the settings on the simulator to medium)
Knight: The Child Sensitivity Level will be raised from Bed-wetter to Heavy Sleeper, so give it everything you've got.
(He closes and locks a control box at the bottom of the bed and turns to the class)
Knight: Dean Hardscrabble is with us this morning to see who will be moving on in the Scaring program and who will not.
(He gestures to Hardscrabble standing off to the side)
(ON Sulley watching Hardscrabble, fear setting in)
(Hardscrabble casually dusts her record-breaking scream can as she moves to the front of the class)
(Mike and Randy look over to Hardscrabble, fear setting in)
Knight: Let's get started.
(INT. SCARE CLASS - MOMENTS LATER. A nervous student stands on stage by the simulator, waiting for his exam to start)
Knight: I am a five-year-old girl afraid of spiders and Santa Claus. Which Scare do you use?
Student Trying Out 1: Uh...
(Dean Hardscrabble flies from the floor up to the window. The student trying out can't help notice)
Student Trying Out 1: That's a Seasonal Creep and Crawl.
Knight: Demonstrate.
(The student walks through the door to the simulator and lunges, roaring at the sim kid)
Student Trying Out 1: (ROARS)
(The student looks to Professor Knight)
Knight: Results will be posted outside my office. Next.
(The next student steps up)
(ON Mike who forces himself to stop watching the tests)
Mike: (to himself) Focus.
(Mike pulls out his textbook and does some last-minute cramming)
Mike: (EXHALES) Johnson, Crackle and Howl. (checks the book) Yes! (CHUCKLES)
(Mike continues to study)
(REVEAL Sulley watching Mike, resentful - that confident little guy is the first person to ever make him second-guess his scaring abilities)
(MONSTER ROARS)
(Sulley turns to see Johnny and the RORs enter and sit in the stands. Johnny looks to Sulley)
(Sulley turns back to Mike confidently, but it's all for show - Mike has gotten under his skin)
(ON Mike as Sulley walks by and "accidentally" bumps Mike's books off the wall. Mike glares at him)
Mike: Hey. Do you mind?
Sulley: Don't mind at all.
(Sulley starts warming up, obnoxiously, right by Mike)
Sulley: (ROARS SOFTLY)
(Mike shoots daggers at Sulley)
Randy: Come on, Mike. Let's just move.
(Mike jumps down near Sulley and picks up his books)
Mike: Stay out of my way. Unlike you, I had to work hard to get into the Scare program.
Sulley: (SCOFFS) That's because you don't belong here.
Mike: (ROARS)
(Sulley is surprised but he roars back)
Sulley: (ROARS LOUDLY) (LAUGHS) (to himself) That's what I thought.
(Sulley goes back to practicing as Mike's cocky smile melts. His words have gotten under Mike's skin)
Sulley: (ROARING SOFTLY)
(Mike gets into Sulley's face and starts practicing his scares too)
Mike: (ROARING)
(Sulley keeps doing the same scare move. With every lunge, Mike does a different move)
(Other students start to take notice of the guys)
(Randy looks up at Hardscrabble, concerned. He sees that Hardscrabble is taking notice....)
(Mike and Sulley get closer and closer to one another and then Sulley steps back, tripping on the books)
Sulley: (stumbling back vocs) Whoa! Whoa...
(Sulley stumbles back and bumps into the stand holding Hardscrabble's scream can. It starts wobbling....)
(The can wobbles strongly then falls)
(There's a beat - then it appears to be undamaged. Whew - they're safe)
(Suddenly, the scream is released, sending the can spinning around the room! Students have to duck out of the way as it flies back and forth)
(It finally lands in front of Mike and Sulley, emptying completely)
(Suddenly a huge, dark figure lands in front of them, wings outstretched. Mike and Sulley come face to face with Dean Hardscrabble. She picks up her empty scream can)
(Randy looks from Mike and Sulley to Hardscrabble, then blends himself invisible)
Mike: I'm so sorry.
Sulley: (STAMMERS) It was an accident.
Hardscrabble: What? This? My one souvenir from a lifetime of Scaring? Accidents happen, don't they. The important thing is no one got hurt.
Mike: You're taking this remarkably well.
Hardscrabble: Now, let's continue the exams. (to Mike) Mr. Wazowski, I'm a five-year-old girl on a farm in Kansas afraid of lightning. Which Scare do you use?
(Mike looks around confused, why is she taking over?)
Mike: Shouldn't I go up on the...
Hardscrabble: (leaning in) Which Scare do you use?
Mike: That is a Shadow Approach with a Crackle Holler.
Hardscrabble: Demonstrate.
(Mike moves through the steps of the scare deliberately)
(He takes a deep breath, preparing to scare when:)
Hardscrabble: Stop. Thank you.
Mike: But I didn't get to...
Hardscrabble: I've seen enough.
(Hardscrabble turns to Sulley)
Hardscrabble: I'm a seven-year-old boy...
(Sulley steps forward and ROARS ferociously. Hardscrabble is unimpressed)
Sulley: (interrupting) (ROARS LOUDLY)
Hardscrabble: I wasn't finished.
Sulley: I don't need to know any of that stuff to scare.
Hardscrabble: That "stuff" would've informed you that this particular child is afraid of snakes. So a roar wouldn't make him scream, it would make him cry, alerting his parents, exposing the monster world, destroying life as we know it, and of course we can't have that. So I'm afraid I cannot recommend that you continue in the Scaring program. Good day.
Sulley: (laughing, then it dawns on him) Wait, what? But I'm a Sullivan.
Hardscrabble: (smiling) Well then, I'm sure your family will be very disappointed.
(Sulley is incredulous, confused. He looks up into the stands, just in time to see the door swing shut on Johnny and the RORs as they exit)
(Sulley can't believe this is happening)
(He turns to Mike and stares at him with pure hate and then marches off)
(Mike watches Sulley leave, concerned)
Hardscrabble: And, Mr. Wazowski, what you lack is something that cannot be taught. You're not scary.
(Mike stands there, stunned)
Hardscrabble: You will not be continuing in the Scaring program.
Mike: Please. Let me try the simulator. I'll surprise you.
Hardscrabble: Surprise me? I doubt that very much.
(EXT. ESTABLISHING SHOT. Time lapse: Barely any leaves are on the trees)
(INT. CAN DESIGN CLASS - DAY. ON A BORING PROFESSOR, Professor Brandywine. REVEAL Mike sitting in class, pained to be there. He stares out the window at the School of Scaring in the distance)
SCREAM-CAN PROFESSOR: Welcome back. I hope everyone had a pleasant break. Some say that a career as a scream-can designer is boring, unchallenging, a waste of a monster's potential.
(Beat)
Scream-Can Professor: (INHALES DEEPLY) Open your textbooks to chapter three. We will now plunge into the rich history of scream-can design.
(Mike looks over to Sulley who is glaring at him. Sulley squeezes his scream can in frustration at Mike, and Mike glares back at him)
(EXT. QUAD. Mike emerges from class, dejected. He heads toward his dorm)
(We pull out and reveal that Sulley is walking next to him, still glaring....Mike pays no attention)
(Sulley stops and watches Mike walk off ahead of him)
(INT. MIKE'S DORM ROOM. Mike slowly walks into his room, depressed, shutting the world out)
(He stands by his bed and stares at his MU hat, then looks out the window at the School of Scaring across the quad. His heart breaks)
(He looks down at his lame scream can tech book. His frustration boils and he throws the book against the wall)
(The book knocks down his calendar revealing the Scare Games poster. Mike's brow raises and a smile slowly grows across his face. He quickly tears the poster off the wall)
(INT. FRESHMEN DORM HALLWAY. Mike opens his door and Sulley is standing there, still glaring. Mike smiles.
Mike: (excited breaths) Out of my way!
(Mike rushes down the hall with his poster, determined!)
Mike: Coming through! (bumping into a student) Oh, sorry. Ha-ha!
(Sulley stares at Mike, what's gotten into him?)
(EXT. FRAT ROW. The Greek Scare Games kickoff)
(Fraternity and sorority monsters have gathered for the event. Claire and Brock are on stage to address the crowd)
Female Announcer: Welcome to this year's Greek Scare Games kickoff.
(The over-excited vice president leans into his mic and yells to the crowd)
Male Announcer: THE SCARE GAMES! YAH!!!
Female Announcer: Okay, relax. We have a special guest, the founder of the games, Dean Hardscrabble.
(More cheers as Dean Hardscrabble steps to the podium)
Hardscrabble: Good afternoon. As a student, I created these games as a friendly competition, but be prepared. To take home the trophy, you must be the most fearsome monsters on campus.
(Instantly posing, a student photographer snaps a picture of the RORs)
Hardscrabble: So good luck, and may the best monsters win.
(Hardscrabble leaves the stage)
Female Announcer: All right, everybody. We're closing down sign-ups, so we'll see you all...
MIKE: Wait!
(Mike pushes through the crowd)
Mike: I'm signing up!
(The crowd, especially the RORs, bust out laughing)
Johnny: (laughing) What?
(ON Professor Hardscrabble who narrows her eyes. What's Wazowski up to?)
(Sulley shows up, still angry, looking for Mike)
Female Announcer: Uh... You have to be in a fraternity to compete.
Mike: Behold the next winning fraternity of the Scare Games, the brothers, my brothers, of Oozma Kappa!
(Mike points, revealing the members of the misfit fraternity: Don, Terri and Terry, Squishy, and Art. They're not used to having so many eyes on them, but they stand proud)
Squishy: Hi.
(A balloon deflates on Squishy's head. The crowd snickers)
(Hardscrabble approaches Mike)
Hardscrabble: Mr. Wazowski, what are you doing?
Mike: You just said the winners are the most fearsome monsters on campus. If I win, it means you kicked out the best Scarer in the whole school.
Hardscrabble: That won't happen.
Mike: How about a little wager?
Students: (shocked gasp)
Mike: If I win, you let me back in the Scaring program.
(ON Sulley)
Sulley: (rolling his eyes) (SCOFFS)
Hardscrabble: And what would that prove?
Mike: That you were wrong.
Students: (shocked laughs)
Hardscrabble: Very well. If you win, I will let your entire team into the Scare program. But if you lose, you will leave Monsters University.
(Mike struggles with this and then...)
Mike: Deal.
Hardscrabble: (smiling) Now all you need to do is find enough members to compete.
(Mike turns to the misfits)
Mike: We need six guys, right?
MALE ANNOUNCER: Sorry, chief. We count bodies, not heads. (pointing to Terri and Terry) That dude counts as one.
(Terri and Terry look at each other)
(Mike's in a panic)
Mike: (frantic) Anybody else want to join our team? Anyone at all?
Randy: Excuse me. Sorry. I'm late. Can I squeeze by you?
(Mike suddenly spots Randy in the crowd)
Mike: Randy! Randy, thank goodness. I need you on my team.
Randy: Oh. Sorry. I'm already on a team.
(Johnny calls over, annoyed)
Johnny: Boggs.
(Randy looks conflicted, nervous. He reveals his fraternity affiliation....)
Randy: I'm finally in with the cool kids, Mike. Don't blow this for me.
(He crosses to stand near the RORs)
Johnny: Do the thing.
(With a pained smile - Randy's thrilled to be a ROR, but isn't exactly one of the guys - Randy camouflages. Pleased, Johnny chuckles)
Chet: (mock surprise) Oh! Where did he go? (Laughing)
ROR Brothers: (ALL LAUGH)
Mike: Please, anybody. I need one more monster. Just one more!
(ON Claire)
Female Announcer: (to Mike) Yeah, sorry. Doesn't look good. We have to move on. Your team doesn't qualify.
Sulley: Yes, it does!
(Sulley climbs on the car that Mike is standing on)
Sulley: The star player has just arrived.
(Mike's eye goes wide)
Mike: No way! (to the crowd) Someone else! Please! Anyone else.
Female Announcer: We're shutting down sign-ups, okay? Is he on your team or not?
(Sulley smiles at Mike, cocky)
FEMALE MONSTER: Come on! Let's go!
Mike: (steaming) (GRUNTING) Fine! Yes, he's on my team.
(Hardscrabble smiles a chilling smile)
Hardscrabble: Good luck.
(Hardscrabble walks off)
Sulley: All right, Wazowski, what's the plan?
(EXT. OOZMA KAPPA FRATERNITY HOUSE. REVEAL: OOZMA KAPPA FRATERNITY HOUSE, a quaint little house)
(ON Sulley and Mike looking confused by this place)
Sulley: This is a fraternity house?
(The door swings open, revealing DON CARLTON)
Don: Hey there, teammateys! Come on aboard!
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA FRATERNITY HOUSE. Don ushers Sulley and Mike inside)
Don: As the president of Oozma Kappa, it is my honor to welcome you to your new home.
(Mike and Sulley step inside a very underwhelming house, where they find their new fraternity brothers waiting)
Squishy: We call this room "Party Central."
(It looks like an old lady's house)
Terry: Technically, we haven't actually had a party here yet.
Terri: But when we do, we'll be ready!
(Terri presses a remote and a disco ball drops from the ceiling on a cord. The cord snaps and the disco ball smashes onto the floor)
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA LIVING ROOM. Everyone is mingling)
Don: Whoo! The hot cocoa train is coming through! Whoa! Next stop... You!
(Don hands Mike a drink)
(Mike begins to address the room)
Mike: I would like to start us off first by...
Sulley: (interrupting) So, you guys are Scaring majors?
(Sulley stands near a cabinet looking at the dainty "old lady" objects)
Don: (CHUCKLES) We were! None of us lasted very long. I guess we just weren't what old Hardscrabble was looking for. (hands Sulley a business card) Don Carlton, mature student. Thirty years in the textile industry and then old dandy Don got downsized. Figured I could throw myself a pity party, or go back to school and learn the computers.
(Mike and Sulley turn to the cheery two-headed monster)
Terry: Hello. I'm Terry with a "Y"...
Terri: And I'm Terri with an "I"! I'm a dance major!
Terry: (CHUCKLES) And I'm not.
Terri: Five, six, seven, eight! (SCATTING) Seven, eight, turn! And... Why didn't you turn?
Terry: (lowered voice) Because we never agreed to do this!
Terri: You said this was going to be cool!
Terry: No one said this was gonna be cool.
Terri: Now I'm embarrassed.
Terry: Now you're embarrassed?
Terri: Yes, because it's in front of people!
Terry: You should wake up embarrassed.
(Next, it's Art's turn - big, burly, but with a sensitive side)
Art: (gruff) Hey, hey, hey! I'm Art! New Age philosophy major. Excited to live with you and laugh with you, and cry with you.
(He hands them each a journal)
Art: Thought you might like to keep a dream journal.
(Suddenly, Squishy pops up right behind Sulley)
Squishy: Guess that leaves me.
(Squishy gives Sulley a start - where did that little guy come from? Squishy walks around in front of Sulley and takes a seat)
Squishy: My name's Scott Squibbles. My friends call me Squishy. I'm undeclared, unattached, and unwelcome pretty much everywhere but here.
(Mike tries to take control again)
Mike: Now that we've all been introduced, as captain of our team...
Sulley: (interrupting again) So, basically, you guys have no Scaring experience?
Misfits: (laughing)
Squishy: (CHUCKLES) Not a lot! But now we've got you!
Don: You're about the scariest fella I've ever seen. Even with them pink polka dots.
Sulley: (blushing, laughing) Aw, thanks.
Mike: Actually, I think I bring the whole package.
(Squishy grabs Sulley's hand and holds it up to his face)
Squishy: Your hands are as big as my face!
Terri: He's like a mountain with fur!
Sulley: (Awe shucks) Oh, come on. I don't even work out.
Art: Yeah, me neither. (to Mike) I don't want to get too big. (SNIFFS)
Don: We thought our dreams were over, but Mike said if we win, they're letting us in the Scaring program.
Terri: We're going to be real Scarers!
Misfits: The best! You betcha! (CHUCKLES)
(ON Mike and Sulley as Sulley gives a confused, awkward humoring nod)
Sulley: (humoring nod) Yeah! (CHUCKLES) Right.
(Sulley looks over to Mike and shoots him a suspicious look. Mike just smiles and nods)
(INT. MIKE AND SULLEY'S FRATERNITY ROOM. The guys enter a dark room, where Don flips a switch to turn on the light)
Don: And here's what you've been waiting for, fellas. Your very own Oozma Kappa bedroom.
(It's a very small room with bunk beds)
Sulley: (chuckling, incredulous, as in "this should be interesting") Oh... Great! We're sharing this room?
Don: We'll let you guys get settled. Anything you need, you just give a big holler-oonie!
(Don shuts the door, leaving Mike and Sulley alone in the room together)
Sulley: Okay, thanks, buddy. (quickly to Mike) Are you kidding me?
Mike: Look, they don't need to be good. I'm going to carry the whole team.
Sulley: Really? And who's going to carry you?
(Mike stares at Sulley, furious)
Mike: Hey, if you want to go back to can design, you know where the door is.
(Suddenly, the lights go out in the room. Sulley flicks the switch. Nothing)
Sulley: Great.
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA FRATERNITY HOUSE. Mike and Sulley feel their way through the darkened house)
Mike: Guys? Anybody home?
(Suddenly a door CREAKS open revealing a stairwell leading down)
Mike: Um... (STAMMERS) Hello? Fellas?
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA BASEMENT - NIGHT. Mike and Sulley step down into the basement. One candle is lit in the middle of the room)
(A ROBED MONSTER (Don) suddenly steps from the shadows)
Don: Do you pledge your souls to the Oozma Kappa brotherhood?
(A robed Terri and Terry step out from the shadows)
(Terry whacks Mike on the butt with a paddle)
Mike: Ow!
Terry: Do you swear to keep secret...
Terri: ...all that you learn here?
Art: No matter how horrifying?
(Squishy whacks Sulley on the butt with a paddle)
Sulley: Hey!
(A robed Squishy rises from the shadows, paddle in hand)
Squishy: Will you take the sacred oath of the...
(Suddenly, a super-bright light comes on, flooding the basement in light. A middle-aged monster mom comes down the stairs carrying a basket of laundry)
Misfits: (bright light reaction) Whoa!/Hey, for crying out loud.
Sherrie: Sweetie! Turn the lights on while you're down here! You're going to ruin your eyes!
Squishy: Mom! We're doing an initiation!
Sherrie: Oh, scary. Well, carry on. Just pretend I'm not here.
Squishy: This is my mom's house.
(Squishy tries to pretend she's not there)
Squishy: Do you promise to look out for your brothers... no matter what the peril...
(Sherrie goes about her business, turning on both the washer and the dryer. The noise gets much louder)
Squishy: Will you defend Oozma Kappa no matter how dangerous? No matter how insurmountable the odds may be? From evils both great and small? In the face of unending pain and... (then, giving up) Oh, forget it! You're in.
(The brothers of Oozma Kappa crowd around Mike and Sulley)
Don: Look, we know we're no one's first choice for a fraternity, so it means a lot to have you here with us.
Squishy: Can't wait to start Scaring with you, brothers.
(Squishy offers them each an Oozma Kappa baseball hat. Mike puts it on then looks to Sulley - is he in or out? A beat, then Sulley reluctantly puts on the hat. It's way small for his giant head)
(The fraternity brothers cheer!)
(Terry whacks Sulley on the butt again with the paddle)
(Sulley snatches the paddle away and snaps it in half. Terri and Terry scurry away)
(The misfits head off)
Squishy: Time for a celebration! Grab the couch cushions, gentlemen, because we're building a fort!
Misfits: (cheering walla) Yeah!
Squishy: Mom, can we stay up late tonight?
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA, MIKE AND SULLEY'S ROOM - MORNING. The sun is just coming up as Mike sleeps in bed. He rolls over, right into a blue furry hand. He cuddles into the hand for a beat)
(PANNING WIDE we see that Sulley's arm is flopped out of his top bunk. It's so long it reaches down onto Mike's bed)
Mike: (snoring, murmuring) Mmm, I know you're a princess and I'm just a stable boy.
(Mike cuddles TENDERLY with the hand for another moment, then the alarm goes off. His eye opens, and he sees Sulley's hand)
Mike: (cuddling noises, then) ACCHHHH!
(He pushes the hand away, flipping a sleeping Sulley out of the top bunk. BAM! Sulley lands on the floor, then pops up angrily)
Sulley: (impact effort) Mom! (looking to Mike) What are you doing?
Mike: Your grubby paw was in my bed!
Sulley: (flustered) (STAMMERS) Were you kissing my hand?
Mike: (LAUGHS NERVOUSLY) No. And what about you with all your shedding?
Sulley: I don't shed.
Mike: Really.
(Mike punches the bottom of Sulley's mattress, and blue hair comes cascading down off the mattress)
(Sulley tries pushing past Mike, as Mike gets out of bed. Mike tries to go around Sulley)
Sulley: (growl)
Mike: Excuse me.
Sulley: I just want to get my stuff.
Mike: Would you just...
Sulley: (pushing efforts) Oh, hey. Come on!
Mike: Let me get my stuff!
(MIKE YELPS)
(They fall out of their bedroom door. Flash! They find all the misfits gathered there in the hallway, smiling at them)
Squishy: First morning in the house.
Art: That's going in the album!
(Don runs up the stairs out of breath)
Don: Guys! We got a letter!
Squishy: A letter?
TERRI: We never get mail.
(Mike, Sulley, and the misfits gather around. Don hands Mike the letter, Mike tries to take it from Don, but it's stuck to his tentacles)
Don: (letter sticking to tentacles vocs) Oh! Sorry. It's stuck.
Mike: (grabbing the letter) Would you... Give me that!
(Mike finally pulls it off of Don and reads it)
Don: Tentacles. (CHUCKLES) They're sticky.
(Mike opens the envelope revealing a mysterious letter)
Mike: (GASPS) It's the first event of the Scare Games.
Misfits: (walla) Cool!/Alright!
Mike: "A child's room is where you scare, but avoid the toxicity lurking there."
Sulley: Wait a minute. Where do they want us to meet?
(INT. SEWER/DRAIN SYSTEM, ON CAMPUS – NIGHT. Mike, Sulley, and the misfits tentatively step into the sewer/drain located on campus. Water drips, graffiti on the wall, spooky)
Art: Of all the sewers on campus, this one has always been my favorite.
Terry: Art, you've been here before?
Art: I have a life outside of the house, you know.
(As they step forward and turn a corner, they hear voices...and then they see:)
(The assembled throng for the first even of the Scare Games)
(Claire and Brock stand in the center of the sewer, on a stage against a wall)
(All the competing fraternities and sororities are there, gathered around the stage)
Male Announcer: Welcome to your worst nightmare, the Scare Games! (enjoying the excitement) (CHUCKLES) Yes! Yes, I love it! I love this energy! Okay. Okay, everybody.
(Mike glances up, noticing Hardscrabble peering in from on high)
FEMALE ANNOUNCER: Let's hear it for the frats and sororities competing in this year's games. Jaws Theta Chi!
(ON the JOX team. A collection of big, wide-shouldered jocks)
(Big Red, their leader, takes a board and breaks it over his head)
MALE ANNOUNCER: Python Nu Kappa!
(ON the PNK team. A group of pretty and seemingly friendly female monsters)
Female Announcer: Slugma Slugma Kappa!
(ON the EEK team. A collection of athletic female monsters. They cheer in a huddle)
MALE ANNOUNCER: Roar Omega Roar!
(ON the RORs. There are the top scarers, wealthy, privileged, with the largest fan base)
FEMALE ANNOUNCER: Eta Hiss Hiss!
(ON the HSS. A collection of creepy Goth coeds)
HSS Sister: (HISSES)
Male Announcer: And finally, Oozma Kappa.
(ON the Oozmas. The guys look small and pathetic. The crowd goes silent, a lone cheer accompanies the group. Mike looks over to see Sherrie calling down from a sewer grate)
Sherrie: Yay! Whoo-hoo!
Squishy: Hi, Mom!
Sherrie: Smile!
(She snaps a picture)
(Back on the Oozmas, Mike sighs)
Male Announcer: Let's begin the first competition, the Toxicity Challenge!
Female Announcer: Human children are toxic!
(She makes her way across the stage now to point to a drawing of children's toys)
Female Announcer: Any anything they touch is toxic.
MALE ANNOUNCER: We don't have any human toys, but thanks to MU's biology department, we found a close second, the stinging glow urchin!
(Some students bring in a crate stamped with the words "MU BIOLOGY DEPT." Claire reaches into the crate with a metal claw and pulls out a beautiful, glowing, spikey orb)
(The crowd recoils in fear)
(The urchin glows and sparks menacingly)
Male Announcer: (to the crowd) Trust me when I say, you are not gonna want to touch this bad boy!
(ON Art in the crowd)
Art: I want to touch it.
(ON Claire)
Female Announcer: And you certainly don't want to touch any of its friends.
(REVEAL an entrance to a tunnel...which is filled with hundreds of the toxic glow urchins scattered along the floor. The crowd is terrified)
(ON Art)
Art: Yeah, I want to touch them.
(ON Brock)
Male Announcer: (pointing to the tunnel) This is the starting line. The light at the end of the tunnel is the finish line.
Female Announcer: And whoever comes in last is eliminated from the games.
Squishy: Mike...
(Mike jumps)
Mike: (GASPS) What is it?
Squishy: Does that mean if we lose, we're out?
Mike: Don't worry, Smoothie.
Squishy: Squishy!
Mike: Squishy. We're not going to lose, because we have everything we need to win right here.
(Mike points to his chest)
Squishy: (smiling) Heart.
Mike: No! Me. I'm going to win the race for us.
(Sulley pushes Mike out of the way)
SULLEY: All right, all right. That's very cute, but move, move, move. I'm going to win this.
Mike: It's an obstacle course. What are you going to do? Roar at it?
Sulley: I can get through faster than you, little guy.
(ON Mike as her glares at Sulley and readies himself at the starting line)
(ON Claire)
Female Announcer: Take your place at the starting line!
(We see the fraternities and sororities lined up along the starting line of the Scare Games course)
Rosie: This is all about teamwork.
Clara: Everybody, stick together.
(The misfits stand in the background, behind Mike and Sulley)
Mike: I'm going to beat you over that finish line.
Sulley: Get ready to eat my dust.
Squishy: Hey, guys, should we huddle up?
(ON Claire and Brock)
Female Announcer: Attention, teams. One last thing. Scarers work in the dark.
(With that, the floodlight is shut down, leaving the course entirely dark. In the darkness, the glow urchins become infinitely more terrifying, glowing and sparking dangerously)
Squishy: (scared) I want to go home!
Male Announcer: On your marks...
(Squishy, Terri and Terry turn to the PNKs finishing their huddle)
Terry: (nervous) Hey, uh, good luck, ladies.
Carrie: Thanks! We're going to rip you to pieces!
Terri: What?
(The PNK sisters shoot the misfits an evil look)
PNK Sisters: (ALL HISSING)
(The misfits are even more terrified now)
MALE ANNOUNCER: Get set...
(Mike and Sulley glare at each other one last time)
Male Announcer: GO!!
(THE RACE BEGINS!)
(Art runs off, the Oozmas and all the other teams follow behind Art who leads the charge with a war cry!)
Art: I'm going to touch them!
(He immediately hits a bunch of the glow urchins, which illuminate, shocking him. He comes crashing down and looks over at his leg, which immediately balloons right up)
Art: (vocs getting hit & falling, then laughing) (CHUCKLING) (SIGHS) (ballooning up) (SCREAMING)
(The crowd goes crazy)
(The teams are off! Mike and Sulley carefully start navigating the danger, ignoring the misfits)
(The EEK sisters are right behind the guys and one of them steps on an urchin)
Brynn: Ow!
(The girls rally together and help their sister keep going)
Carla: Come on!
(ON the misfits who call out to Mike and Sulley)
Don: Uh, guys! We're falling behind a little! Fellas! (steps on urchin) (SCREAMS) Cheese and crackers! (GROANS) Son of a moustache! Salisbury steak, that hurts!
(Squishy covers his ears)
(BACK ON Sulley and Mike who are busy trying to outrun each other)
Mike: (running) Is that as fast as you can go?
Sulley: (running) Just get started!
Mike: What the...
(Urchins whiz past them fired by monsters standing above them with slingshots)
(Mike and Sulley try their best to avoid the flying urchins)
(Sulley is hit by an urchin in the shoulder and instantly swells up)
Sulley: Ah!
(He grabs the urchin on his shoulder and his hand swells up)
Sulley: (GASPS)
(Mike runs ahead but turns back to laugh at Sulley)
Mike: That's got to hurt!
(Mike is hit by an urchin and falls. He looks at his foot and it swells up!)
Mike: (SCREAMS)
(The RORs with their awesome skills and their teamwork, quickly leave them in the dust)
(Sulley runs whizzing past Mike. Mike's determination is renewed)
(He keeps his swollen leg lifted as he hops along in pain)
Mike: (getting up grunt) (GROANS) Ow, ow, ow...
(ON THE MISFITS)
(Terri and Terry duck to avoid an urchin)
Terri: (out of breath) Terry!
Terry: (out of breath) Don't worry, we'll be fi... (hit in face by urchin) Aaaah!
(Terry's face swells up and he screams!)
(Not not looking where they're going, they step onto another urchin)
Terri & Terry (Both): Ahhhh!
(They trip and fall as their leg swells up)
(Squishy sees them and screams)
(He runs off in panic and starts getting pummeled with urchins)
(BAM! An urchin flies into his mouth. He swells into a giant pink ball)
(The monster that threw it fist bumps another monster)
(ON Mike and Sulley)
(Mike and Sulley follow the RORs. Still hopping on one leg, Mike smiles as he sees that Sulley is behind him. Turning back, he ducks an urchin)
(This throws him off balance and he loses control, landing on an urchin with his good foot)
Mike: (landing on urchin) Yikes! (leg swells) Ow!
(They have entered part of the course where urchins hang all around on strings at different heights. He maneuvers to avoid them)
Mike: (yelling avoiding urchins) Ow, ow, ow, ow!
(ON Sulley)
(Sulley puts his head down and barrels through the urchins, getting zapped along the way)
(Sulley continues to push through and catches up with Mike. They are neck and neck)
(The RORs cross the finish line first)
MALE ANNOUNCER: Roar Omega Roar wins!
Crowd: (cheering)
(Mike and Sulley race to the end)
(Finally, Mike and Sulley leap across the finish line at the exact same time)
Sulley: (heavy breathing) Take that, Wazowski!
Mike: Are you delirious? I beat you!
Sulley: Get your eye checked!
(The crowd sees them and starts laughing)
Chet: Oh, way to blow it, Oozmas!
Mike: Hey! Second place ain't bad.
MALE ANNOUNCER: Second place, Jaws Theta Chi!
Sulley: What?
Johnny: Your whole team has to cross the finish line.
MALE ANNOUNCER: Third place, EEKs! Fourth place, PNKs!
MIKE: No.
Male Announcer: Fifth place, HSS!
Mike: No, no, no!
MALE ANNOUNCER: And in last place, Oozma Kappa.
(Mike turns around in time to see the battered and bruised Oozma Kappa cross the finish line. Don rolls Squishy out and then collapses.
Squishy: I can't feel my anything.
Female Announcer: Oh... Shocker! Oozma Kappa has been eliminated!
(ON the leader board, Oozma Kappa's name is removed)
Mike: No. (gasp)
(Mike backs up in a panic directly into Dean Hardscrabble)
Hardscrabble: Don't look so surprised, Mr. Wazowski. It would have taken a miracle for you to stay in.
(Mike turns to Hardscrabble, it dawns on him, he's done)
(ON Brock)
Male Announcer: Attention, everyone We have an announcement. Jaws Theta Chi has been disqualified.
Crowd: (shocked walla) What?
(Mike looks up to the stage, "what?")
Male Announcer: The use of illegal protective gel is cause for elimination.
Crowd: (walla) Boo!
JTC President: What?
(A referee wipes goop off George Sanderson's leg and pokes him with the urchin)
(Zap! Swell)
George: Ow!
Male Announcer: Which means Oozma Kappa is back in the games! It's a miracle!
(Hardscrabble can't believe it. She glares at Mike)
Hardscrabble: Your luck will run out, eventually.
(Mike looks worried. He glances at his team. The Oozma Kappa wave at him looking friendly and pathetic)
Mike: This is going to be harder than I thought.
(The Oozma Kappa name is put back on the scoreboard)
(EXT. QUAD. Mike has gathered the team together on the quad. He passes before them like a drill sergeant as Sulley leans against the tree behind him)
MIKE: Okay! Listen up, Oozmas. Now, we're going to have to start winning these things together, so that means I'm going to need each of you guys to pull your own weight.
(Squishy appears behind Mike)
Squishy: Mike?
Mike: (GASPS) What is it?
Squishy: We've made a list of our strengths and weakness.
Don: In high school, I was the master of the silent scare. I could sneak up on a field mouse in a pillow factory.
(Don delicately creeps along the ground on his hands and knees, but his tentacles stick to the sidewalk. He awkwardly pulls them up each with a loud, grating, popping sound)
Don: (struggling) Sorry! They get stickier when I'm sweaty. (keeps walking) Oh, my gosh, that's terrible.
(Mike just stares at him...)
(Terry pulls out playing and begins to do a card trick)
Terry: We're experts in the ancient craft of close-up magic.
Terri: (mysterious) It's all about misdirection.
(Cards spill out of Terri's sleeve and Terry sighs, embarrassed)
Art: I have an extra toe. (LAUGHS) Not with me, of course.
(Mike calls out to quiet the team)
Mike: Guys, one slip-up on the next event, and we're goners. So for this to work, I'm gonna need you to take every instinct you have and bury it deep, deep down.
(Mike crumples up their list and throws it away)
Art: Done.
Mike: From now on, we are of one mind.
(Sulley rolls his eyes)
Sulley: Oh, please.
Mike: I will tell you exactly what to do, and how to do it.
Misfits: (unsure) Uh... Okay, Mike. Seems about right.
Mike: All right. Give me scary steps. Fifty up and down, right now. Let's go!
(Sulley walks over to Mike)
Sulley: You're wasting your time. We need a new team.
Mike: (mocking) (SCOFFS) We can't just "get a new team"! I checked this morning. It's against the rules.
Sulley: What if we disguised a new team to look like the old team?
Mike: Oh, no, no. We are not cheating.
Sulley: It's not cheating. I'm just, you know, leveling the playing field.
(Mike stares at him)
Sulley: Okay, so it's kind of cheating, but what do you want me to do? They're not exactly the scariest group in the world.
(Sulley points to the misfits now distracted from their training, crowded around Squishy)
Squishy: Oh, a ladybug! Make a wish! Make a wish!
(Art blows it off Squishy's arm. They all laugh, enjoying it fly away)
(Hopelessness sets in)
Sulley: This is not going to work.
(Sulley leaves)
Mike: Where are you going? We're training.
Sulley: I'm a Sullivan.
Mike: That's not enough. You're all over the place. You're charging ahead when you...
Sulley: Bup, bup, bup! You tell them what to do but not me. So long, Coach.
(Sulley passes by a group of girls in the quad and shoots them finger pistols)
Girls: (GIGGLING)
(Mike watches concerned as Sulley heads off)
Mike: Okay, Oozmas...
(He turns and jumps! Squishy is standing right behind him)
Mike: (GASPS) Boy, we need to get you a bell.
(Mike turns to the group and pulls out the open envelope from the Scare Games and reads it)
Mike: Listen up. "If a kid hears you coming, they'll call Mom or Dad,  then you'd better run fast or things will get bad."
Art: Huh?
Mike: In the next event, if even one of us gets caught, we're all out. So remember, do exactly what I do.
(INT. LIBRARY. ON the Oozmas, as they sneak through the library, terrified of making a noise. They copy Mike's every move)
(ON Brock and Claire surrounded by a group of onlookers in a nearby balcony overlooking the action)
FEMALE ANNOUNCER: We are at the halfway point of the second event, and things are getting interesting.
(The misfits walk in line with Mike, revealing an annoyed Sulley. Sulley looks ahead to see the HSS sisters as they reach for their flag)
HSS Sister: (SOFTLY) Got it.
(They quickly get out of the library, having passed the test)
(The other two flags left hanging are green and purple for the two remaining teams)
FEMALE ANNOUNCER: Only two teams left. Who will make it out with their flag, and who will be eliminated?
(REVEAL THE EEKs as they sneak along too)
MALE ANNOUNCER: In a real Scare, you do not want to get caught by a kid's parent. And in this event, you do not want to get caught by the librarian.
(ON AN OLD MONSTER LIBRARIAN. As she presses her tentacle fingers to her lips and quiets the room)
Librarian: (SHUSHING) Quiet.
(She can hear a pin drop but she needs strong glasses to see anything)
(ON the Oozmas and the EEKs creeping toward their flags)
Terri: (whispers) (SCOFFS) What's so scary about a little old librarian?
(A student is studying and gets up from his chair and the floor makes a small squeak)
(Suddenly, the old librarian rises up, turning into a terrifying creature)
(She grabs hold of the student and lifts him up)
Librarian: I said, "Quiet."
Library Student: AHHHH!!!
(She throws the student through the dome of the library)
(EXT. LIBRARY. The student flies through the air, dropping through a tree and into the river)
Library Student: AHHHHHHHHH!!!
(The crowd cheers)
(INT. LIBRARY. ON Mike and the misfits shocked as the librarian soars over them to the other end of the library)
(Mike breaths deeply, turns around and starts to put his foot down)
(The board underneath squeaks so Mike quickly moves it to another board)
(The misfits begin a slow, steady pace through the library, they literally walk exactly as Mike does)
(Sulley can't handle their pace)
Sulley: (whispered) Faster.
(Mike corrects him-)
Mike: (whispered) Slow and steady.
Art: (whispered) Slow and steady.
Don: (whispered) Slow and steady.
Terri & Terry (Both): (whispered) Slow and steady.
Squishy: (whispered) Slow and steady.
(The misfits relay the exact message down the line to Sulley the exact way Mike did. They continue to move really slowly as Sulley is increasingly frustrated)
(Sulley can't take it. He bolts forward, leaving his teammates behind)
(Mike's eye goes wide)
Mike: (GASPS) (whispered) Sullivan!
Art: (whispered) Sullivan!
Don: (whispered) Sullivan!
Terri & Terry (Both): (whispered) Sullivan!
Squishy: (whispered) Sullivan!
(Mike shushes the misfits)
Mike: (whispered) SHHH!
(But they shush him back exactly as he did)
Art: (repeated) SHHH!
Don: (repeated) SHHH!
Terri & Terry (Both): (repeated) SHHH!
Squishy: (repeated) SHHH!
Mike: (sigh)
Art: (repeated) (sigh)
Don: (repeated) (sigh)
Terri & Terry (Both): (repeated) (sigh)
Squishy: (repeated) (sigh)
(Sulley runs to a book ladder and climbs on. It makes a loud creak! Everyone stops and looks back at the librarian)
(The librarian turns around at Sulley's noise but luckily she can't see very well)
Librarian: Hmm.
(She goes about her business. Mike gives a sigh of relief)
(But he gasps when he sees Sulley racing to the top of the ladder)
(Sulley reaches for the Oozmas flag and almost gets it -)
(But the ladder starts to come off the tracks under the strain)
(Sulley falls to the ground with a thunderous SLAM)
(The librarian spins toward the sound, and quickly runs toward Sulley)
Librarian: (GROWLS)
Mike: No!
(Her tentacles poised to grab him - he cringes, waiting to be yanked - but just then...)
(POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP! POP!)
(The librarian whips around - who's making that noise?)
(It's DON! And he's on his hands and knees crawling along the floor. His tentacles are making a loud, sticky, suction cup sound)
Librarian: (GROWLING)
(The librarian leaves Sulley behind and makes a beeline for DON, her tentacles shooting toward him)
(Now it's Don's turn to cringe, bracing for impact. Just before the librarian reaches Don...)
(Terri and Terry start-up their crazy dance moves)
TERRI: Five, six, seven, eight! (SCATTING)
Terri & Terry (Both): Look over here!
(The librarian stops in her tracks and now she turns towards Terri and Terry)
(Now it's Terri and Terry's turn to be scared. But just as the librarian's tentacle reaches for them--)
(Art is now standing on top of a table stomping his feet and laughing hysterically)
(ON VP and member of the crowd)
Crowd Member: Is that legal?
Male Announcer: You better believe it, mop top! The only rule is don't get caught.
(As the librarian guns for Art, he somersaults off the table and rolls around in front of her, laughing like a mad man)
(Mike looks on, horrified)
(The EEKs are using a human rope to get to their flag)
(Art continues rolling right past Sulley. Terri and Terry shout at the librarian)
Terri & Terry (Both): (shouting) Hey! Over here!
(As the librarian purses Terri and Terry, one of her tentacles knocks the EEK pyramid over)
Terri & Terry (Both): (shouting) Come and get me! Come get me!
Mike: Guys, what are you doing?
(She charges after the whole group. The misfits run past Mike and pull him along)
Terry: They said don't let her catch you.
Terri: But they didn't say how!
Oozma Kappa: (walla, seeing the librarian catch up to them) AHH!/Move it! Move it! Move it!/Come on!
(The Oozmas narrowly miss her outstretched tentacles and burst through the library front doors to safety)
Oozma Kappa: (jumping) Ahhhhh!!!!!
(EXT. LIBRARY. The Oozmas land in a heap, excited they made it out)
Art: Whew! (CHUCKLES) We did it!
(Mike spins around furious)
Mike: No, we didn't. We forgot the flag!
(Mike is suddenly interrupted)
SQUISHY: Mike?
Mike: (GASPS)
(Squishy holds up the OK flag)
Misfits: (cheer walla) Way to go, Squishy!
Mike: How?
(Terri leans into Mike)
Terri: (mysterious) Misdirection.
(The EEK sisters come flying out of the roof of the library)
Male Announcer: The EEKs have been eliminated and Oozma Kappa live to scare another day!
(Meanwhile, a displeased Hardscrabble stands nearby observing)
(Art, Terri, Terry, Squishy, and Don celebrate)
Misfits: (laughing, chanting) We're OK! We're OK! We're OK! We're OK! We're OK!
(Mike watches the misfits. He smiles, appreciating what they've done)
(EXT. OOZMA KAPPA FRATERNITY HOUSE – LATE AFTERNOON. The Oozmas walk home from the event, still on a high)
SQUISHY: I've never felt so alive!
TERRI: We were awesome!
Sulley: Okay, look. That wasn't real Scaring.
Mike: It was better than what you did. You should've stuck to my strategy
Sulley: Whatever. Talk to me when we start the real Scaring.
(Mike's brow furrows. Just as the misfits make it to their house, a car filled with members from the PNK sorority pulls up)
Carrie: Hey! You guys going to the party?
Squishy: Oh, I think you've got the wrong guys. We don't get invited to...
Mike: (trying to stop Squishy) (SHUSHES) Party?
Carrie: The mid-games mixer at the RORs.
Britney: It's for the top Scare Teams. You're one of us now, right?
Carrie: See you there!
(Laughing, the girls drive off. The misfits look to each other, surprised)
Don: Did you hear that?
Squishy: I can't believe it!
Sulley: Uh-uh. Bad idea.
Mike: This is great. They're finally seeing us as real Scarers. We're going!
(EXT. ROR HOUSE – EARLY EVENING. The Oozmas head up the stairs to the ROR house. Sulley looks uncomfortable as they approach the closed door. Hearing the loud music, the misfits start to get cold feet)
DON: Do young people still dance? (nervous) Because my moves are a little rusty.
Terry: Oh, we forget to bring a hostess gift.
Terri: We can't go in there without some scented candles.
Mike: Calm down. We earned this.
Squishy: (nervous) (STAMMERS) What if there's a lull in the conversation? I never know what to... You know...
Mike: Say?
Squishy: How are you so good at this?
Mike: You just took on an angry 50-foot librarian, and you're afraid of a little party? Take a deep breath...
(The misfits inhale and exhale)
Mike: And in you go!
(The doors open wide)
(INT. ROR HOUSE – EARLY EVENING. The room is full of big partying monsters. They all turn to see the misfits standing in the door way. The music stops. Squishy looks terrified, Mike nudges him)
Squishy: Hello.
(The crowd stares at them blankly)
Party Monster 1: It's Oozma Kappa!
Party Monster 2: These guys are crazy!
Party Monster 4: What you did today was insane!
MONSTER: That was awesome!
(The music starts up and the monsters go back to partying)
Misfits: Thank you!/Thanks so much!
Party Monsters: Oozmas, yeah!
(Mike looks to Sulley, who is also shocked. Mike turns to the misfits with a smile on his face)
Mike: Oozma Kappa, tonight we party like Scarers!
Misfits: YEAH!/WOO!
(CUT TO the dance floor. Each group is doing their thing!)
(Art is busting some crazy moves)
(Don shows his stuff. Terri and Terry are lovin' the beat)
(Squishy is dancing with the PNKs)
Squishy: I've never stayed up this late in my life!
(GIRLS GIGGLING)
(Squishy is having a great time on the dance floor and spies Sulley standing by himself. He decides to lasso him onto the dance floor. Sulley is not amused. Squishy is undeterred and begins "reeling" him in. Sulley gives into his enthusiasm and reluctantly hops his way onto the dance floor with the rest of the misfits)
Squishy: WOO!
Party Monsters: Woo-woo! Woo-woo!
(Mike wanders to a hallway at the side of the party where portraits of the great Scare Game winners are located. He sees the Scare Games trophy, set on a pedestal at the end of the room. As he approaches, Mike sees his reflection in it. Distorted by its shape, he looks big and impressive. Mike raises his claws and makes a small growl face)
(ON Johnny as he address the party crowd)
Johnny: (WHISTLES) Hey, quiet! Quiet! Quiet down, you can-wranglers. All right. On behalf of the RORS...
Chet: YEAH!
Johnny: We'd like to congratulate all the teams that have made it this far.
(Everyone cheers. Johnny points to each of the teams)
Johnny: All, right, let's hear it for the PNKs!
PNK Sisters: (ALL HISSING)
Johnny: I love that trick! Never gets old. HSS!
HSS Sisters: (HISSES)
Johnny: (CHUCKLES) Very creepy. And finally, the surprise team of the Scare Games, Oozma Kappa! Come on over, guys.
(The crowd parts, spotlighting Oozma Kappa)
Johnny: Now, I got to admit, fellas, I thought you were a bunch of nobodies. But, boy, was I wrong. Let's hear it for Oozma Kappa!
CROWD: Oozma Kappa!
(Suddenly without warning, the Oozmas are splattered with paint)
Mike: What?
Johnny: The most adorable monsters on campus.
(A bug monster then presses a button and a machine shoots glitter confetti at the Oozmas, sticking right to them)
(Another ROR brother tosses a bucket of flowers at them. They have become a laughing stock)
Johnny: Released the stuffed animals.
(Randy pulls on a rope, connected to a net full of stuffed animals. They drop and Chet quickly snaps a picture)
Chet: (laugh) Faced!
(The screen goes white)
(EXT CAMPUS, NEXT DAY. Pulling back from one of the photos of the team covered in glitter and paint to reveal it's printed on the cover of the school's newspaper: THE CAMPUS ROAR. Mike puts the papers in the trash)
(ON the misfits walking to class. Mike is furious but does his best to boost the team's morale)
Mike: Don't worry. (GRUMBLES) Nobody reads the school paper.
Art: Yeah, but I'm pretty sure they read the quad.
(Mike looks over, stunned. Trees, light posts, poster kiosks all covered with the photo in every shape and size. The entire quad is blanketed with the embarrassing image as students look on and laugh)
MONSTER: Whoo-hoo!
(A giant banner is unfurled on the clock tower)
(Mike's shock is broken by an offscreen voice)
CHET: Thank you very much. Okay. Would you like that with two sleeves or four?
(He turns to see Johnny and the RORs selling shirts and other merchandise featuring the photo)
Johnny: Thanks. Tell your friends.
(Furious, Mike marches over followed by the team)
Mike: Hey! What do you think you're doing?
Johnny: Raising a little money for charity.
Mike: Yeah? Well, stop it.
Johnny: You want us to stop raising money for charity? That's not cool.
Chet: (calling out) This guy hates charity!
Mike: I want you to stop making us look like fools.
Johnny: Hey, you're making yourselves look like fools.
(Johnny pulls out the paper)
Johnny: Let's be honest, boys. You're never going to be real Scarers, because real Scarers look like us.
(He gestures to himself and his team)
Johnny: But, hey, if you really want to work for a Scare company they're always hiring in the mailroom.
(Johnny turns around the paper to reveal a help-wanted ad for the Monsters, Inc. mail room)
(The misfits take this in as everyone laughs at them)
(With that Sulley fumes and heads off. The misfits follow, dejected. Mike runs after them)
Mike: Guys, hold on! Hey, hey, hey! Wait a second. Don't listen to him. We just need to keep trying.
Sulley: No, you need to stop trying! You can train monsters like this all you want, but you can't change who they are.
(Sulley walks off)
DON: Mike... We appreciate everything you've done, but he's right. No matter how much we train, we'll never look like them. We're built for other things.
(Don looks at his card)
(The misfits follow after Sulley)
(Mike watches them go, helpless. Chet approaches holding a mug with the photo on it)
Chet: (SLURPS) Sorry, squirt! Some monsters just aren't cut out for the big leagues. (LAUGHING)
(Mike stares out and suddenly something something dawns on him. He takes off--)
Mike: (sotto) The big leagues.
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA FRATERNITY HOUSE – EVENING. Mike bursts through the door and catches up with the misfits and Sulley)
Mike: Guys. We're going on a little field trip.
(EXT. ROAD  NIGHT. Sherrie drives a car filled with the Oozma Kappas. She pulls over and stops, and the Oozma Kappas stretch as they climb out of the car)
Don: Okay, I need to get out....
Art: Excuse me, my leg's caught. There we go, I got it.
TERRY: My tentacle fell asleep.
Squishy: Thanks, Mom.
Sherrie: Have fun, kids! I'll just be here listening to my tunes.
(Sherrie rolls up the window, and we hear muted heavy metal thrasher music pounding from inside the car)
Art: Hey, uh, where are we?
Mike: The big leagues.
(Mike walks up to a gate with the guys behind him. Mike looks over the gate in awe, as we reveal... Monsters, Incorporated)
(Sulley is stunned)
Don: Holy roly-poly.
Squishy: Wow.
Art: Nice fence.
Squishy: This is amazing, Mike.
Mike: We're not stopping here.
(Mike holds up a pair of wire cutters and does a chop-chop action)
(EXT. MONSTERS, INC. We see a fence cut out and a "No Trespassing" sign on the ground)
Squishy: (nervous voc)
(We pan up and see the guys climbing a ladder that gets them onto the roof of Monsters, Inc.)
SQUISHY: This is crazy. We're going to get arrested!
Mike: (SHUSHING)
(INT. MONSTERS, INC. They all look down through a window and all their eyes go wide)
Misfits: Oh, wow. Whoa... Oh! (CHUCKLES)
FEMALE MONSTER ON PA: All Scare Floors now active. West coast coming online. Scarers coming out.
(THEIR POV. We look down on a working scare floor. The floor is full of scarers moving in and out of their active doors. We see several monsters go through their entire routine)
SQUISHY: Look at them. They're going into the human world, and they don't even look scared!
(Mike and Sulley take it all in. They're awestruck. The fraternity brothers look down in amazement)
Mike: (to the group) Wow. Take a good look, fellas. See what they all have in common?
(Squishy strains, but then turns to Mike confused)
Squishy: Uh... No, not really.
Mike: Exactly.
(A sea of monsters of all shapes, sizes, ages, genders, fill the floor, all scaring in their own way)
Mike: There's no one type of Scarer. The best Scarers use their differences to their advantage.
(The team smiles watching all the various types of monsters using their varied appearances, sizes and shapes in unique, skillful ways)
(A tall skinny guy with long skinny arms flails them around like wild hoses. Squishy watches a puff ball turn into a spider)
Squishy: Wow.
Terry: Terri? Look.
(ON a three-headed monster as it comes out of a room)
(Sulley is starting to see Mike in a new light. Huh. Mike might actually be right about this. The misfits are certainly inspired....)
DON: (CHUCKLES) Hey! Look at that old feller racking up the big numbers!
Mike: (amazed) Don, that old fella is Earl "The Terror" Thompson!
Sulley: What? Where? That's really him?
MIKE: He held the Scare Record for three years!
Sulley: Oh! Third door from the end!
(ON a female scarer)
MIKE: Carla "Killer Claws" Benitez!
(Sulley can't believe what he's seeing)
SULLEY: Look! It's "Screaming" Bob Gunderson! I still have his rookie card.
Mike: Me, too!
Sulley: Doesn't have the speed anymore, but his
Mike: Technique is flawless.
Sulley: Technique is flawless.
(The guys have never had this kind of interaction before. They're not instant friends - it's just a moment)
Mike: You collected Scare Cards, huh?
Sulley: Yep. 450 of them.
Mike: Impressive. I have 6,000 still in mint condition, but, you know, 450 is pretty good, too.
(ON the misfits, inspired by what they're seeing on the floor)
Squishy: Hey, look at me! I'm Earl "The Terror" Thompson! (ROARS)
(Squishy makes a scary face)
Misfits: Whoa! (CHUCKLES) Oh, that's great!
DON: That's a pretty good one, Squish.
(ON Sulley and Mike watching the guys, then Sulley looks at the floor)
Sulley: I've been a real jerk.
Mike: So have I. (beat) But it's not too late. We could be a great team. We just need to start working together.
SECURITY GUARD: Hey!
Mike: (GASPS)
Security Guard: What are you doing up there?
(Everyone freezes)
Art: I can't go back to jail!
(Art starts running, the others quickly follow)
Don: Hey...
(EXT. ROOFTOP. Mike, Sulley, and the misfits take off!)
Mike: Come on!

(ON THE GUARDS as they see them climbing)
(Back ON the guys as they try to go down a ladder
Mike: (GASPS)
Security Guards: Up there! Get them!
(But the guards are at the bottom so they change direction. They start hopping over the rooftops)
ART: Whoo-hoo-hoo!
(Squishy is one of the last ones to jump and nearly falls but Sulley catches him)
Squishy: (panic breaths) Thanks, brother!
(Sulley puts Squishy on his shoulders)
Sulley: Don't mention it. (running efforts)
(They catch up with the rest of the team)
(A beat later, Don is winded - he can't keep up)
Don: (heavy breathing) I'm fine, really! It's just a little heart attack.
(Sulley picks him up as well)
(Art catches up to Sulley-)
Art: Aw... I want a piece of that action!
(They all jump onto Sulley's back)
(Sulley rounds the corner, now carrying all the misfits)
(EXT. MONSTERS, INC. GATES. They round the bend and sprint to the car just ahead of the guards)
SQUISHY: Mom! Start the car!
(They duck through the hole in the fence)
(Sherrie lowers her window)
Sherrie: What?
Squishy: Start the car!
Sherrie: (confused) Stop the bar?
Squishy: The car! Start the car!
Sherrie: Oh! Okay.
(She starts the car as they pile in)
Mike: Come on, come on, come on, come on!
Art: Get in! Get in!
Squishy: Mom, go!
Sherrie: Seatbelts.
(The group quickly buckles as the guards move closer)
Squishy: Okay, go!
(Sherrie reaches under the visor)
Sherrie: Does anyone want gum?
Squishy: Just drive!
Sherrie: Okay. Here we go!
(Mike reaches forward and slams on the gas. The car peels away just as the guards catch up....)
Oozma Kappa: Aaaahhhh! (laughing)
ART: Oh, yeah! Let's break in somewhere else!

Sulley: Dean Hardscrabble! If we get back into the Scaring program, I hope there's no hard feelings.
(She stops and turns to Sulley)
Hardscrabble: Tomorrow, each of you must prove that you are undeniably scary. And I know for a fact that one of you is not.
(Hardscrabble looks over at the team, she lands on Mike. Sulley's eyes follow)
Mike: (effort sounds) It's as simple as that.
Sulley: No. He works harder than anyone.
Hardscrabble: Do you think he's scary?
Sulley: He's the heart and soul of the team!

Mike: Okay, just like we planned. I'll go first. Then, Don...
Sulley: Hold on. (to the Oozmas) Mike's the one who started all this and I think it's only right if he's the one who finishes it. I think you should go last.
Art: Yes, yes, right on!

Terri & Terry (Both): Let's do this.
(Green light turns on, GO!)
(Terri and Terry take off against Chet from the RORs)
(INT. ROR SIMULATOR. Chet dances his claws around the toys to the bed and lets out a fearsome roar)
Chet: (roar)
(The score board shows Chet taking the lead over the OKs. The RORs cheer at Chet's score)
ROR Brothers: (cheering) Yes! Yeah!
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA SIMULATOR. A door opens and in walks the silhouette of a human. But then the human splits apart into a four-armed, two-headed creature and lunges into the foreground revealing Terri and Terry, roaring. The kid screams)
Terri & Terry (Both): (ROARING)
(On score board showing this scare taking the OKs just below the RORs' lead)
Oozma Kappa: (cheers) YEAH!
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA SIMULATOR. A sim kid lies quietly in bed when the closet door opens. Is that Squishy in front of the door? The kid's eyes scan the room and go back to the door, Squishy's gone)
(A second later, the kid turns and Squishy is suddenly right beside him)
(The sim kid screams and Squishy's scream can fills up just over half way)
(Score board shows Oozmas have taken a small lead!)
(Squishy's mom cheers wildly)
Sherrie: (Cheer!) YEAAAHHH! YE-YE-YE-YEAH!
(ON ROR sim kid as Chip does a terrifying scare)
Chip: (ROARS)
(ON Scoreboard as the RORs reach past the Oozmas)
(ON Mike and the team watching dejected. But they rally)
Oozma Kappa: (pumping him up) Come on Art, you can do it!/Come on buddy!
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA SIMULATOR. Art comes in, taking large steps across the room then balancing on his hands. It’s a mixture of break-dancing and yoga. He flattens and rolls under the bed)
(A four-armed bug monster from the ROR team let's loose his scare)
(ON scoreboard as the bug guy creates an even bigger lead)
Johnny and ROR Brothers: (cheering) Yes!
(ON sim kid)
(Art appears at the kid's side and strikes a strange yoga pose)
Art: (warbled) (ROARS)
(Art's scream can only fills up halfway. Not enough points to pull up to the RORs)
(ON Mike, disappointed. It's not looking good for the Oozmas, the RORs have too big a lead. But they rally anyway)
MALE ANNOUNCER: Next up, Sullivan and Boggs!
(Randy and Sulley take their places at the starting line)
(The light turns and they're off!)
(Sulley stops at the door, opens his dossier)
(ON the dossier. "7-year-old, lives on Kauai and is afraid of thunder and lions.")
(Mike watches as Sulley studies the information)
Mike: (sotto) You got this, Sull.
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA SIMULATOR. Sulley heads inside. He carefully dodges every obstacle and positions himself at the end of the bed)
(EXT. STADIUM. Mike and the misfits watch Sulley on the Jumbotron)
(INT. ROR SIMULATOR. Randy disappears into his room, climbing the walls)
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA SIMULATOR. Sulley slowly lurches up over the kid and does a big roar)
Sulley: (ROARS)
(The room shakes and the sim kid screams)
(ON RANDY, as his simulator shakes from Sulley's roar)
(Randy drops to the ground and is thrown off his game. He blends into a heart rug this time and lets out a meager roar)
Randy: (lame) (ROARS)
(ON SCOREBOARD showing the scores are now tied!)
(EXT. FIELD)
MALE ANNOUNCER: And it's all tied up!
(Sulley joins his team as they celebrate. They're almost there)
FEMALE ANNOUNCER: Oh, tough break for the RORs!
(Randy sees them celebrating as he backs up and runs right into Johnny.
Randy: Huh?
(Johnny is fuming)
Johnny: Hearts?
(Johnny stares daggers at Randy)
Chet: Way to go, Boggs!
(Randy looks back at Oozma Kappa celebrating)
Randy: (to himself) That's the last time I lose to you, Sullivan.
Male Announcer: Worthington and Wazowski to the starting line.
(All eyes on Mike)
(Mike pauses, a bit of doubt setting in. He looks over and sees Hardscrabble looking in his direction)
(Sulley approaches Mike)
Sulley: Hey. Don't worry about Hardscrabble. Don't worry about anyone else. Just go out there and show them what Mike Wazowski can do.
(Mike's nervousness fades when he hears this)
Mike: Thanks.
(Mike heads to the starting line. He's right next to Johnny)
Johnny: Don't take the loss too hard. You never belonged here anyway.
(Mike's eye narrows. For the first time he looks determined)
(The light turns and they're off!)
(Mike and Johnny are neck and neck)
(They enter their simulators)
(INTERCUT as they both approach the sim kid. Johnny creeps toward the bed. Mike takes his time, dodging toys and distracting the kid with a scratch to the bed)
(Johnny goes in for the kill)
Johnny: (ROARS)
(ON scoreboard. Johnny almost fills his can, taking the team's lead close to the top)
MALE ANNOUNCER: Amazing performance by Worthington!
(We see Johnny walking out like a champion)
ROR Brothers: (chanting) ROR! ROR! ROR! ROR! ROR!
Chet: Johnny, you're my hero!
FEMALE ANNOUNCER: The Oozmas will need a record breaking scare to win this.
(ON Sulley, anxiously waiting on Mike's scare)
(Mike crouches by the bed, contemplating his next move. Every discouraging statement floating through his mind....)
LITTLE MONSTER: You don't belong on a scare floor.
JOHNNY: No one will remember you.
HARDSCRABBLE: You're not scary.
(And then Sulley...)
SULLEY: Come on! Dig deep!
(Mike's eye opens and he leaps up over the bed and ROARS!)
Mike: (ROARING)
(The can fills to the top!)
(Oozma Kappa's point tally beats the ROR house! Everyone goes wild)
Sulley: YEAH!!!!!
Crowd: (Huge Cheer!)
(ON Hardscrabble in the audience, stunned)
Female Announcer: They did it! YEAHHHHHHH!!
(She grabs Brock and pushes him over as she cheers wildly)
(The crowd rushes the stadium, flying by the stunned ROR brothers)
(Mike steps from the simulator, stunned as he realizes what has happened)
(The Oozma Kappas run to Mike, hoisting him on to their shoulders)
Sulley: YEAH!! We're in the Scare program! Yeah!
(The Oozma Kappas are celebrating, hugging each other)
(Don cheers on Squishy)
Don: Come here, you son of a gun! Way to go!
(Sherrie is cheering too. Don turns and unknowingly hugs her)
Sherrie: Yeah!
(Surprised, they pull back but his tentacles get stuck....)
Don: (stuck efforts) Oh! A little stuck.
Sherrie: (embarrassed vocs) Oh...
Don: Pardon me there, Ms. Squibbles.
They both felt something, and they study each other intensely, as if for the first time....
Sherrie: (GIGGLES) It's Sherrie.
(Awkward but sweet moment)
(ON THE OOZMAs as we pull out....)
Mike: WE DID IT!
(EXT. FIELD. ON OOZMA KAPPA. The brothers of Oozma Kappa shake hands with fans and finish soaking up the moment)
Nerdy Fan: Way to go, Oozma Kappa!
Terri & Terry (Both): Thank you/Thanks a lot.
Oozma Fan #2: You rule!
Don: I have never ruled before.
(Squishy holds the trophy, admiring it)
Sulley: (LAUGHING) You guys killed it out there!
Art: (laughing) Awesome!
(Sulley laughs as he looks for Mike)
Sulley: (calling out) Hey, Wazowski! Come on, let's go, you maniac! We're celebrating.
(Sulley finds Mike standing alone in the Oozma's simulator)
Sulley: Mike?
(Mike is beaming, lost in his own little world)
Mike: I did it. I can't believe it.
(Sulley smiles....)
(Mike turns around)
Mike: I'm gonna be a Scarer!
Sulley: (LAUGHS) Yeah, yes, you are.
(Mike turns to the sim kid one more time)
Mike: You hear that? Get plenty of rest, kiddo. You haven't seen the last of Mike Wazowski. Boo!
(Mike playfully throws his hands in the air toward the sim kid --to his shock the sim kid shoots out of bed and lets out a terrifying scream, reacting just as wildly as it did in the competition)
(Mike leaps back in shock)
(Mike turns to see the can fill all the way to the top)
(Sulley says nothing, he looks confused, slightly worried)
Mike: I knew I was scary. I didn't know I was that scary.
(Mike chuckles awkwardly, clearly confused)
Sulley: (covering) (CHUCKLES) Yeah, we're so scary I guess we broke it.
(But Mike approaches the bed slowly, his smile fading. Mike leans in and snaps his fingers right by the sim kid’s head. The dummy shoots back into the air and screams)
(Confused, Mike lifts the bed skirt to reveal a control panel. We see a row of six gauges with a row down labeled "Easy," "Medium," and "Hard.")
MIKE: It's been tampered with.
Sulley: Uh, I don't think you should be messing with that.
MIKE: Why are my settings...different?
(Suddenly it dawns on Mike)
Sulley: Mike, we should leave.
(Mike looks at Sulley. Sulley looks cornered. Suddenly it dawns on Mike)
Mike: Did you do this?
Sulley: Mike.
Mike: Did you do this?
(Sulley struggles then...)
Sulley: (ashamed) (SIGHS) I... Yes, I did. But you don't understand.
Mike: Why? Why did you do this?
(Mike's face drops, his heart breaks)
Sulley: (SIGHS) You know, just in case.
Mike: In case of what?
(Sulley lifts his head and looks at Mike. Suddenly it all dawns on Mike)
Mike: You don't think I'm scary.
Sulley: Mike...
Mike: (hurt) You said you believed in me. (then, angry) But you're just like Hardscrabble. You're just like everyone else!
Sulley: Look, you'll get better and better...
Mike: I'm as scary as you! I'm as scary as anyone!
Sulley: I just wanted to help.
Mike: No. You just wanted to help yourself.
Sulley: Well, what was I supposed to do? Let the whole team fail because you don't have it?
(And just like that, Sulley's said it. And Mike is thrown for a second. Then his eye narrows, and he storms off)
(As he does, REVEAL the misfits, who are standing just off the stage. They saw the whole thing, and they look hurt/confused/disappointed/angry)
(While the others walk away, Squishy sets down the trophy and shuffles off with them....)
(ON Sulley as he tries to process how totally wrong everything's gone. In what was supposed to be a triumphant moment, he's alone - confused, angry, frustrated....)
(INT. MU DOOR TECH LAB. Two door lab students walk by and reveal Mike leaning up against a wall across from the door tech lab)
MALE DOOR TECHNICIAN: So your calculations were a little off.
Female Door Technician: That door took me all semester.
Male Door Technician: It's too dangerous. The professor's just going to shred it.
(EXT. MU CAMPUS – MOMENTS LATER. Sulley walks across campus, still confused, upset. Holding the trophy limply)
(As he passes students...)
Students: (LAUGHS) There he is, the big guy./The first of many trophies, I am sure.
(If this is everything Sulley wanted... he's too out of it to notice. He just moves past the students, numb, and glances at his sad reflection in the trophy)
KNIGHT: Sullivan.
(Sulley looks up from the trophy to see Professor Knight)
Knight: Nice work out there. I look forward to having you back in class.
(Sulley looks conflicted as Professor Knight heads to the School of Scaring)
CHET: Hey, there he is!
(REVEAL Johnny and the RORs, who walk up)
Johnny: Looks like I was wrong about you. You're one of us after all.
(He holds out a ROR jacket for Sulley)
CHET: Way to go, Sulley! Welcome back, broham! You are one of us now, okay? Anytime you want to come hang out and do whatever, you got a crew.
ROR Brothers: (walla) Yeah!/You're a ROR!/Sullivan!
Chet: You're a ROR, buddy!
(Sulley looks at Johnny, then past him... he sees Professor Knight talking to Dean Hardscrabble, at the entrance to the School of Scaring)
(A look of resolve comes over Sulley's face - he knows what he has to do)
(He hands the jacket AND the trophy to Johnny and runs off....)
Johnny: (flustered) Hey! Where are you going?
(INT. MU DOOR TECH LAB. Mike stares at the door lab. Several students shut off the light and come out of the lab)
(Mike casually walks by them, grabbing one of their card keys. Glancing around, he swipes the card. He waits for the green light and opens the door, heading in)
(EXT. SCHOOL OF SCARING/QUAD. Sulley is in mid-confession to Hardscrabble and Professor Knight)
Hardscrabble: You did what?
Sulley: My team had nothing to do with it. It was all me. I cheated.
(Hardscrabble and Professor Knight are stunned)
Hardscrabble: I expect you off campus by tomorrow.
(Sulley hangs his head accepting his fate)
Sulley: (sotto) Yes, ma'am.
Hardscrabble: You're a disgrace to this university and your family name.
(Sulley is crushed)
(Suddenly, an alarm sounds on campus)
(A security guard is running by....)
Hardscrabble: What's going on?
Security Guard: Someone broke into the door lab!
Hardscrabble: (sotto) What?
(Hardscrabble flies off immediately....)
(Sulley watches her fly towards the door tech building)
(It dawns on Sulley...Mike)
Sulley: Oh, no.
(INT. MU DOOR TECH LAB. Mike places a scream can in its station. He takes off his hat and places it on a scream can as he faces off with the door)
(He powers up the door)
(In the background, we hear security guards trying to get in. Mike has blocked the door with a cart full of scream cans)
Security Guards: (walla) Open the door!/Don't go in there!/It's very dangerous!
(He stands there, unflinching in front of the door. The light turns on above the door and Mike turns the knob)
(INT. BEDROOM – NIGHT. In the human world, a closet door opens. Mike steps through it and quietly shuts the door. He's in the human world)
Mike: (EXHALES)
(He makes his silent, stealthy approach towards the bed, building a scary mood)
(The kid slowly sits up, sensing something....)
(Suddenly Mike leaps up and ROARS)
Mike: (ROARS)
Kid 1: (GASPS)
(The kid stares at Mike. Mike roars again)
Mike: (ROARS)
(Then the kid smiles)
Kid 1: You look funny.
(ON MIKE, as he react, confused/disappointed/upset)
Mike: (confused) What?
(Mike hears a COUGH offscreen)
(The camera pulls out to reveal he's in a cabin full of beds, a kid bunked down in each one. A banner hangs on the wall, reading, "Camp Teamwork.")
(The other kids start to wake up. Groggily, they stare at Mike)
GIRL 1: I'm so tired. What's going on?
GIRL 2: It's the middle of the night.
GIRL 3: A little funny green guy.
(Mike is thrown – what should he do?)
(He takes a step back toward the closet door when he turns and next to the closet is another kid. He freezes)
(A beat)
Mike: (ROARS)
Kid 2: (playful, back at Mike) (ROARS)
(Mike gasps in disbelief)
(The other kids in the cabin start to get closer. He's trapped!)
GIRL 4: I want to touch it! It's so cute!
(INT. MU DOOR TECH LAB. Sulley runs through the hall and up to the door lab, where a crowd of students is being held back by campus security)
Don: James!
Hardscrabble: No one goes near that door until the authorities arrive.
(Sulley moves to the front of the crowd near the misfits. Inside the lab, Hardscrabble oversees additional security personnel who are securing the door and investigating the scene)
Don: You don't think that could be...
Sulley: It's Mike.
Squishy: But he could die out there!
(Sulley tears down the "Caution Do Not Cross" tape)
Squishy: James, wait! We can help.
(Don steps forward)
Don: Leave it to the old, "Master of Sales."
(ON Hardscrabble and the guards. They are talking in the door tech lab when Don confidently strolls up to them)
Security Guard: We got a call in, but that's the best we can do.
(Don taps one of them on the shoulder and they turn around bewildered to see someone crossed into the lab)
Don: Ahem! (turning on the charm) Don Carlton, sales, Folks, today is your lucky day. How many times have you asked yourself the following question...
(Hardscrabble stares at Don, not buying it)
Hardscrabble: (dismissive) Arrest him.
(Suddenly, two guards throttle Don against the wall)
Don: Pardon? (impact) Ahhh!
Security Guard: Spread them, Pops!
DON: Do you mind?
Security Guard: Don't move!
(Sulley runs for the door)
(When Sulley's almost to the door, Hardscrabble spots him out of the corner of her eye)
Hardscrabble: What? Sullivan! Don't you dare!
(He grabs the door handle....)
Hardscrabble: Sullivan! Don't go in there!
(Sulley quickly looks back toward Hardscrabble, ignores her and slips through the door)
(INT. CAMP TEAMWORK – NIGHT. Sulley creeps through the cabin, which is empty. Where is Mike?)
Sulley: (whisper) Mike? Mike!
(Sulley hears voices outside and crosses to a window. Some camp counselors are gathered in front of one of the kids' cabins, relating the events of the night to some park rangers. The flashing lights of the ranger's cruiser strobe through the cabin)
WOMAN: The kids said they saw something in the cabin.
Counselor 2: They're calling it an alien.
GIRL: It was!
Kid 2: I saw a little green guy!
(Sulley hears a noise and looks over to see a broken screen. He goes to the screen and whispers outside....)
Sulley: (whispered) Mike?
(He climbs out the window)
(EXT. CABIN – NIGHT. Sulley jumps down from the window)
(A couple of rangers hear him and train their flashlights on him)
Sulley: (GASPS) Ah!
MALE CAMP COUNSELOR: Bear! A bear in the camp!
RANGER 1: Call this in to headquarters.
(Sulley takes off running, jumping down into a gully, evading the lights)
(Sulley sprints through the woods. He bursts through some brush and comes to the edge of a lake)
(He scans the lake but hears men yelling and ducks behind a rack of canoes, seeing flashlights in the distance)
RANGER 2: Down this way. All right? I heard something over here!
(Sulley hears a splash and turns to see Mike sitting at the foot of the lake, staring at his reflection in the water)
Sulley: (gasp then sigh of relief) Mike!
(Mike doesn't look back)
Sulley: Come on, buddy. Let's get you out of here.
(Mike still doesn't look up)
Sulley: This is all my fault. I'm sorry.
(Mike continues to look down)
Mike: (depressed) You were right. They weren't scared of me.
(Sulley moves closer and looks down at Mike, silent)
Mike: I did everything right. I wanted it more than anyone. And I thought... I thought if I wanted it enough, I could show everybody that...
(Mike stares at his reflection in the water)
Mike: That Mike Wazowski is something special. And I'm just not.
(He splashes it away)
Sulley: Look, Mike, I know how you feel.
Mike: Don't do that! Please, don't do that! You do not know how I feel.
(Mike's raises his voice, Sulley looks around cautiously)
Sulley: Mike, calm down.
Mike: Monsters like you have everything. You don't have to be good. You can mess up over and over again and the whole world loves you.
Sulley: Mike...
Mike: You'll never know what it's like to fail because you were born a Sullivan!
Sulley: Yeah, I'm a Sullivan. I'm the Sullivan who flunked every test. The one who got kicked out of the program, the one who was so afraid to let everyone down that I cheated. And I lied. (SIGHS) Mike, I'll never know how you feel, but you're not the only failure here.
(Sulley's shoulders drop, he sits down next to Mike)
Sulley: I act scary, Mike, but most of the time I'm terrified.
Mike: How come you never told me that before?
Sulley: Because we weren't friends before.
(Mike is stunned, at a loss of words)
(Suddenly a flashlight grazes Sulley)
RANGER 3: Check the lake!
RANGER 4: I heard something here!
(Sulley jumps back as the lights come toward him)
(Mike hides behind a rock as he watches Sulley driven away)
RANGER 5: This way!
(Mike is in shock. Sulley looks back at Mike, they both don't know what to do. After a second, Sulley just takes off running)
RANGER 6: I saw movement!
Rangers: Over there!
(Sulley runs through the darkness and right into an EMBANKMENT)
(He tries to climb the slippery side of the embankment but the flashlights are getting closer)
(Just as he is struggling, a tree limb is suddenly lowered down next to him)
MIKE: Sulley!
(Sulley looks up - it's Mike, at the top of the embankment. Sulley's surprised....)
RANGER 5: He's cornered!
(In the distance, the sound of humans is getting closer, and we can make out flashlights in the trees)
(Mike lowers the tree branch a little more, bracing his feet against some rocks)
(He pulls Sulley up over the edge. They take off back toward the cabin)
(EXT. CABIN – NIGHT. The rangers are surrounding the cabin)
(Mike and Sulley see an opening and sprint toward the cabin)
(INT. CABIN – NIGHT. The guys burst into the cabin, run to the closet door and throw it open!)
(REVEAL: Just a closet full of camping supplies. No monster world)
(ON MIKE AND SULLEY, who react, dismayed)
Mike: No!
(INT. SCHOOL OF DOOR TECHNOLOGY. The door powers down)
(The door lab is crawling with campus security. Dean Hardscrabble stands beside the door station, a finger on the power button)
(Oozma Kappa is being held back by security)
Don: They're still in there!
Hardscrabble: Until the authorities arrive, this door stays off!
(The misfits react. Hardscrabble has just delivered a death sentence)
Squishy: No! You can't do that! No!
(Squishy breaks the line, tearfully charging for his friends, but he's held back with ease by security)
Hardscrabble: Enough! I want this room cleared now!
(Security starts herding students out of the lab)
Misfits: (walla) You can't do this!/Please wait, don't do this now!/He needs our help!
(The lab doors are slammed shut)
(INT. CABIN – NIGHT. Mike and Sulley are panicked. Mike closes the door, then quickly opens it, but again, nothing)
(Mike and Sulley hear the humans outside getting closer)
(They run to the cabin window and see that a group of rangers has arrived. They approach the cabin, shining flashlights)
(Sulley runs away)
Sulley: We got to get out of here!
(Mike gets an idea)
Mike: (whispered) Let them come.
Sulley: (whispered) What?
(Sulley looks at Mike, confused)
Mike: If we scare them, I mean really scare them, we could generate enough scream to power the door from this side!
Sulley: What are you talking about?
Mike: I have read every book about Scaring ever written. This could work!
Sulley: They're adults. I can't do this.
Mike: Yes, you can. Just follow my lead.
(ON THE DOOR to the cabin. The doorknob turns, then rangers pour in, flashlight pointing into the darkness)
(They jump as a fan turns on suddenly, then slows to a stop)
(The window drapes flutter, as if someone has just touched them)
(The rangers proceed farther into the cabin)
(Up in the rafters, Sulley and Mike nod at each other. Mike counts down silently as they get ready for their next action)
(BAM! The front door of the cabin slams shut behind the rangers)
(The rangers hear music. They spin around and see a record player, playing a record backward)
(They hear another sound and turn their flashlights on a doll walking across the cabin)
Doll: Mama! Mama!
(The doll walks into a bed post and falls down)
Doll: (warbled) (DISTORTING) Mama...
(They see a dark shadow run across the floor behind them. It's Mike)
(Sulley reaches down behind the rangers and scrapes the floor with his claws. The rangers turn in time to see the claw marks on the floor)
(They hear something in the rafters. Shining their flashlights in that direction they see more claw marks on the walls all around them)
(They hear a deep, low growl as something short and round scurries across the floor)
Sulley: (growl)
Ranger: What the...
Rangers: (gasp) Whoa!
(Just before their flashlights reach Mike, Sulley reaches down and pulls him up into the rafters again like a basketball)
Rangers: (walla) I heard it/It's going this way.
Sulley: (whispered) Now what?
Mike: (whispered) Phase two.
(Down on the floor, the rangers jump when suddenly the bunk beds start to topple over toward them like dominoes)
(The terrified rangers run to avoid being hit by the beds which fall on the front door, blocking it)
(INT. MU DOOR TECH LAB. Hardscrabble is alone in the lab)
(Faint screams are heard and the light above the door suddenly flickers red then fades back to black)
(Hardscrabble stares at the light, baffled)
(INT. CABIN, CONTINUOUS. Mike smiles as he sees the door to the monster world start to glow)
(He turns to Sulley)
Mike: (WHISPERING) Are you ready?
Sulley: Mike, I can't.
Mike: Yes, you can. Stop being a Sullivan and start being you.
(Sulley looks uncertain)
MALE RANGER: Call for backup.
FOREST RANGER: Assistance on the north side. Repeat, we need assistance on the north side.
DISPATCH ON RADIO: Ranger, answer, what's you 20?
(Mike jumps down from the rafters behind the rangers)
Forest Ranger: We need assistance on the north side. We have a...
(Mike grabs a fishing pole and ties some of the line to a table leg. he runs around the room, encircling the rangers)
Rangers: (walla) Look! What was it?/Let's go.
(The rangers are spooked)
(From a hiding place behind a piece of furniture, Mike locks eyes with Sully and nods. It sinks in, Sulley becomes determined. It's time)
Rangers: (walla, glimpsing Mike rolling by) Over her!/It's right behind you!
(Sulley drops from the rafters, landing in front of the rangers. He begins to let out a deep growl...)
(As the rangers recoil in horror, Mike tightens the fishing line around the ranger's legs causing them to fall and get tangled in the line)
(As the rangers struggle on the floor, Sulley looms over them and lets out a ferocious roar)
Sulley: (ROARING) ROAR!!
(The ranger screams are overwhelming....)
(INT. MU DOOR TECH LAB. In the lab, the screams burst through, flooding the room with energy)
(Everyone outside the lab sees bright lights. Something is going on, but no one can tell what it is)
(The light above the door turns bright red, followed by the stacks of scream cans across the room filling up completely)
(Hardscrabble, alone in the lab, is stunned)
(INT. CABIN. The closet door glows brightly)
Sulley: (ROARING) ROAR!!!
(ON the rangers, screaming as they run from Mike and Sulley)
(INT. MU DOOR TECH LAB. Close up of scream cans on a shelf overflowing, exploding...some flying through the air)
(Hardscrabble, standing in front of the cans, doesn't know what to do – she looks to the door)
(INT. CABIN – HUMAN WORLD. Mike sees that the door is now on)
Mike: Sulley, come on!
(They run for their exit)
(INT. MU DOOR TECH LAB. Hardscrabble sees the door is about to explode and she jumps out of the way)
(KABOOM!!! Sulley and Mike burst through it in a cloud of smoke and debris)
(Hardscrabble peeks out from behind several destroyed scream cans. For the first time, Dean Hardscrabble is dumbfounded)
(They all look back back at the door, which has been completely destroyed)
(Mike sees his smoking, tattered MU hat in the rubble)
(Hardscrabble approaches Mike and Sulley)
HARDSCRABBLE: How? (STAMMERS) How did you do this?
Sulley: Don't ask me.
(Sulley looks at Mike. Mike looks unaware. She can't believe it)
(Suddenly someone is sawing through the wall and the Child Detection Agency blast through to the lab)
CDA Agent 1: (walla) Move, move, move! This is a 54-23 in progress. All right, everybody, clear out. Secure the perimeter.
CDA Agent 3: No child breach. Repeat: no child breach.
(The CDA covers the room, inspecting and grabbing Mike and Sulley)
(The students outside start yelling at Sulley and Mike)
Angry Student 1: You ruined our doors!
Angry Student 2: I've been working on my door all semester!
CDA Agent 2: Let's go, you two.
(The misfits emerge from the crowd)
Squishy: You're alive!
Don: We are so glad you're safe.
(As the CDA escort Mike and Sulley out of the room, Hardscrabble stares after them in a daze)
(She is left standing amongst the scream cans)
(The misfits yell after them)
Terry: Hey, wait!
Terri: What's going to happen to them?
(A familiar CDA agent responds. It's Roz dressed in CDA clothing)
ROZ: That's for the university president to decide. But you can be sure we'll be watching these two. Always watching.
(INT. OOZMA KAPPA FRATERNITY HOUSE - DAY. TIGHT ON Don looking dismayed)
Don: Expelled?
(Sulley and Mike are bummed to have to deliver the news)
Mike: Yeah, we really messed up.
Squishy: So, you're leaving?
Sulley: Yeah, buddy. We have to go.
Art: Harsh, man.
Mike: I'm sorry, guys. You'd be in the Scaring program right now if it wasn't for us.
(The misfits exchange a look - they clearly have some news)
Sulley: What?
Don: Well, (CHUCKLES) it is the gosh-darnedest thing.
Terry: Hardscrabble's letting us into the Scare program.
Mike: What?
Terry: She was impressed with our performance in the games.
Terri: She invited us to join next semester!
Sulley: (CHUCKLES) Congratulations, guys!
Don: And that's not the only piece of good news. Sherrie and I are engaged!
(Sulley and Mike are confused)
Sulley: Oh. Who is Sherrie?
Squishy: (painfully embarrassed) (SIGHING) She's my mom.
(Sherrie steps up and Don puts his arm around her)
Sherrie: Well, if it isn't my two favorite fellas!
Don/Sherrie: (nuzzling noises) Come here. Give me some sugar.
Squishy: Ugh! So uncomfortable.
Don: Oh, come on, Scott. I don't want you to think of me as your new dad. After all, we're fraternity brothers first.
Squishy: This is so weird.
DON: Just think of me as your big brother that's marrying your mother. Wait. Hold on. We're brothers who share the same mom slash wife. That's worse.
(Everyone's a little grossed out by Don's words, Don included)
(EXT. OOZMA KAPPA FRATERNITY HOUSE - LATER. Mike and Sulley stand by their respective suitcases)
Mike: (somber) Well, I guess we should be going now.
Don: (getting emotional) Promise me you'll keep in touch.
(He hands Mike and Sulley his business card, which has "sales" scratched out and "scare student" written in. Mike looks at the card)
Mike: You're the scariest bunch of monsters I have ever met. Don't let anyone tell you different.
(Everyone goes in for a group hug)
(EXT. MU FRONT GATE. Mike and Sulley walk toward the gate with their bags)
Sulley: So, what now?
Mike: You know, for the first time in my life, I don't really have a plan.
Sulley: You're the great Mike Wazowski. You'll come up with something.
Mike: I think it's time I leave the greatness to other monsters. I'm okay just being okay.
(Mike's bus pulls up)
Mike: So long, Sull.
Sulley: So long.
(Mike and Sulley shake hands then Mike steps on to the bus. The bus takes off. Sulley watches it leave)
(INT. BUS. Mike stares ahead from his seat on the bus)
(ON Sulley, he looks down, unsure what to do....)
(Back on Mike, who stares out the window at the campus he is leaving....)
(Suddenly, two blue arms reach into the window, it's Sulley)
Sulley: Wazowski!
Mike: (SCREAMS)
Sulley: Whoa!
(Startled Sulley falls back out the window)
(Mike calls up to the bus driver)
Mike: Stop the bus!
(EXT. BUS. Mike steps off the bus as Sulley is running down the street)
Mike: Are you crazy?
Sulley: (PANTING) Mike, I don't know a single Scarer who can do what you do. I know, everyone sees us together, they think I'm the one running the show, but the truth is, I've been riding your coattails since day one! You made the deal with Hardscrabble. You took a hopeless team and made them champions. All I did was catch a pig!
Mike: (sotto) Technically, I caught the pig.
Sulley: (laughing) Exactly! And you think you're just okay? You pulled off the biggest Scare this school has ever seen!
Mike: That wasn't me!
Sulley: That was you! You think I could have done that without you? I didn't even bring a pencil on the first day of school.
(Mike smiles)
(Sulley's trying to find the words....)
Sulley: Mike, you're not scary. Not even a little. But you are fearless.
(Mike's never heard anyone say that before)
Sulley: And if Hardscrabble can't see that, then she can just...
Hardscrabble: I can just what?
(Sulley turns around, shocked to see Dean Hardscrabble flying down behind him)
Hardscrabble: Careful, Mr. Sullivan. I was just warming up to you.
(Sulley looks down awkwardly)
Sulley: (sotto) Sorry.
Hardscrabble: Well, gentlemen, it seems you made the front page again.
(Mike looks at the picture, smiles sheepishly)
Hardscrabble: The two of you did something together that no one has ever done before. You surprised me. Perhaps I should keep an eye out for more surprises like you in my program.
(It's good to hear, but a little late)
Hardscrabble: But as far as the two of you are concerned there is nothing I can do for you now. Except, perhaps, wish you luck.
(Mike and Sulley are touched)
Hardscrabble: And, Mr. Wazowski, keep surprising people.
(Mike watches her fly off, looks at the paper, then smiles and looks to Sulley)
Mike: You know, there is still one way  we can work at a Scare company. They're always hiring in the mailroom.
(Mike shows Sulley a want ad that reads: "Help Wanted: Mailroom, Monsters, Inc." Sulley smiles)
(INT. MONSTERS, INCORPORATED - MAIL ROOM. PULL BACK from the MI logo. Mike is beaming, standing next to Sulley in MI's mail room)
Sulley: This is better than I ever imagined!
Mike: I bet we break the all-time record in our first year.
Sulley: Mike, we're mail guys.
Mike: I know. I'm talking about the record for letters delivered!
(A big dump of letters come down the shoot. Mike and Sulley brace themselves)
(Mail Manager THE YETI walks by, reprimanding them)
Yeti: All right, newbies, quit goofing around. I'll have you know tampering with the mail is a crime punishable by banishment!
Sulley: Yes, sir.
Mike: We're right on it, Mr. Snowman. (to Sulley) The team of Wazowski and Sullivan are going to change the world starting today! Say scream!
MikeSulley (Both): Scream!
(Mike takes a picture of he and Sulley in the mail room)

Mike: Thanks, Merv.
MI Worker 1: Good luck, Mike!
Mike: Thanks, fellas.

(POST-CREDITS SCENE)
(INT. SCHOOL CLASSROOM. Slug guy slowly enters a classroom)
Slug: (running, out of breath) I made it! My first day of class!
(Snap zoom out to an empty lecture hall with a janitor sweeping the floor)
Janitor: Uh, the school year's over, son. You missed it.
Slug: Great.
(Slug guy turns around and very slowly leaves the lecture hall)

(Walt Disney Pictures logo: The short version of the CGI castle)
(We see the text: PIXAR. Then a lamp, named Luxo Jr., hops by. He stops once he notices the "I". He shakes his body and bounces on the "I" until it squishes it. Luxo Jr. looks around as the text "ANIMATION STUDIOS" fades in. He then faces the camera. The light slowly dims until it's completely dark. Luxo Jr. is still on though, but he turns off, making the screen completely dark)
