INT. CRASHDOWN CAFE - CONTINUOUS
JEFF
Oh. Is that how you feel?
LIZ
No, no... look, it's just... I'd hate to
get you stuck out there without any of
the other dads you know.
Jeff realizes.
JEFF
Right. That would be terrible.
LIZ
So then we won't. Go.
JEFF
Whatever you --
Their conversation is disrupted as
INT. UFO CENTER - MILTON'S OFFICE - DAY
MAX
Who reported it?
MILTON
Some hiker named Buz. I can just imagine
what he was in the woods for.
MAX
(relieved)
So, it could just be a hoax.

So, That's What Happened to Old Johnny Bloch
INT. VALENTI'S OFFICE - DAY
ROCKY
Listen, I ain't one of those nuts that
sees spacemen comin' out from behind every
tree.
VALENTI
Of course not.
ROCKY
You know what they do to those people?
They lock 'em up tight in the loony bin.
That's what happened to Jonathan Bloch
over in Fayeville. Family drove him there
one Sunday and he ain't never been back.
VALENTI
(slightly defensive)
I'm sure the family had their reasons.
But you don't have to worry about that.
Rocky. Can I call you Rocky?

Absent Fathers and Aqua Bras
INT. WEST ROSWELL HIGH - HALLWAY - DAY
We follow Maria down the hall from the shoulders up. As she
passes, some guys turn around to stare. One whistles. She
smiles, loving it.
We then follow her from behind as she spots Liz at her locker
and approaches. Liz looks up and sees her. A strange look
crossess her face.
We finally see all of Maria, who suddenly has an extremely
full figure.
MARIA
Like it? It's an aqua bra. All the fun
of implants without the invasive surgery
part.
LIZ
You have officially lost it.
Liz starts walking. Maria falls in.
MARIA
I have found it, babe. Three phone numbers
and it's only second period.
A CUTE GUY passess by.
CUTE GUY
Hey, Maria.
MARIA
Hey, Neil.
(point proven; to Liz)
What'd I tell you? Whole new life. Wanna
try it on?
But Liz's attention is drawn across the hall where she watches
Max sneak into the Eraser Room.
(JUMP)
MARIA
(shaking her head)
Like a puppy in heat. He's my next
project.
VICKY, Kyle's hot girlfriend walks by, noticing.
VICKY
(conspiratorially)
Hey, is that the new twelve ounce? 'Cause
the eight ounce just isn't doing it for
me anymore.
Off Maria's look. Meanwhile we pick up...
THE ERASER ROOM
ISABEL
But we don't know how many guys he's got
patrolling, and if anyone saw us it would
just make him more curious.
MAX
(looking at the flyer)
Not if we're supposed to be there.
MICHAEL
Last time I checked, none of us were
deputies.
MAX
What do you do in Frazier Woods?
(jump)
MAX
There's only on problem.
ISABEL
(understanding)
Dad.
MICHAEL
What does he have to do with it?
MAX
It's a fathers' weekend. Get to know your
dad kind of thing.
MICHAEL
Guess that lets me out.
Off Max and Isabel knowing how he must be feeling.
INT. LIZ'S ROOM - NIGHT
JEFF
I know I have to learn to respect your
privacy --
LIZ
(laughing)
Really, it's no big deal. Did you need
something?
JEFF
Well, um, I was just wondering... how's
that girl, you know, the one who brought
her blow dryer on the camping trip that
year?
LIZ
Pam Lewis?
JEFF
Right. Pam. Is she going this year?
LIZ
(feeling bad)
I don't really hang out with her much
anymore.
JEFF
Rigth. Listen, about the camping weekend.
I don't care if I don't know the other
dads. I just think we should go. Take
advantage of having time together. I
wouldn't miss that for anything.
Scene continues as aired.
Maria Takes It One Day At A Time
ACT TWO
INT. CRASHDOWN CAFE - BACK ROOM - DAY
Maria now plays with the aqua bra under her uniform, as Liz
comes down the stairs carrying two sleeping bags.
MARIA
Running away from home?
LIZ
Oh God, Maria, I beg you for mercy. Please
go with me.
MARIA
My idea of the great outdoors is rolling
the windows down in my car on the way to
the mall. Besides, this is my first wild
weekend.
LIZ
You don't even have any plans.
MARIA
Exactly. I take what life throws at me,
hopefully some very cute guys, and make
the most of it.
LIZ
You can't leave me alone with my dad for
forty eight hours.
MARIA
I love your dad. You love your dad.

The Valentis: Semi-Functional Men
INT. VALENTI'S OFFICE - DAY
KYLE
(mock proud)
That's my dad.
HANSON
He as tough at home as he is here at the
office?
KYLE
It's a free-for-all at our house, Deputy.
But when we get out in the wilderness,
two men against nature, we actually have
a semi-functional relationship.
Valenti bursts in, carrying a newspaper.
Scene continues as aired.

Living The Life of Liz
LIZ, ALEX AND MARIA
Liz looks over and sure enough Max is looking at her from the
cashier's counter. Michael stands next to him. Liz heads
over there. Maria follows.
MARIA
Am I going to have to do an intevention?
You have got to let him know you are over
him. That your life is full of excitment.
(beat)
Lie if you have to. It's for your own
good.
MAX
Hey.
LIZ
Hey.
(taking the check)
That'll be ten sixty-two.
MAX
Haven't seen you in a couple days.

Some Pre-Boarding Activities
EXT. WEST ROSWELL HIGH - PARKING LOT - DAY
BEHIND THE BUS
LIZ
Maria, having a life is one thing, but
having a fantasy life is a little
troubling, don't you think?
MARIA
Okay. We'll just hide.
KYLE
Coach Klay. I hear we're bunking
together this trip.
KYLE
Pinch me. Or don't, better yet.
VALENTI'S VOICE
Thanks, Coach. I'll take it from here.
(jump)
JEFF
You're lucky you've got a boy.
(sees Chuck)
Hey, never seen you guys on this trip
before.
CHUCK
I'm a little surprised myself. Hello,
Sheriff.
VALENTI
This weekend I'm just Jim Scene continues

The Power of Max Evans and Fraizer Woods
ACT THREE
FADE IN:
EXT. FRAZIER WOODS - CAMPGROUND - DAY
MAX
That's exactly why we have to do this,
Isabel. If the sighting is real and
there's something out there, then we have
to find it first. We have no choice.
They arrive at their site where Philip is unpacking a tent.
PHILIP
Give me a hand here, will you, Max? Looks
like this support rod snapped.
Max walks over and assesses the damage.
MAX
You and Isabel hold it up. I can fix it.
Philip and Isabel stretch the tent out while Max takes the
rod underneath. Out of sight, he holds the two broken pieces
in his hand and uses his powers to mold them back into one.
MAX (CONT'D)
(standing)
Good as new.
Meanwhile....
EXT. FRAZIER WOODS - CAMPGROUND - NIGHT
JEFF
What're you hiding, Max? What kind of
power do you got over these poor guys
that makes them do exactly what you want
them to do?
By the way Jeff looks at him, Max realizes this is not just
about poker, either.
MAX
No secrets.
(beat)
Just luck of the draw, I guess.
JEFF
Call. Full house, jacks and eights.
(jump)
ALEX AND ISABEL
ALEX
So, I was thinking, since we missed our
date tonight, I ghought maybe we could
do somthing next Friday.
ISABEL
Our what?
ALEX
Our date.
Isabel looks at him, Alex looks at her realizing.
ALEX (CONT'D)
Not a date. That's probably the wrong --

Some Soul Searching at the Water Spigot
CLOSE ON A SLEEPING BAG
...as Chuck rolls it out.
CHUCK
(satisfied)
Extra long.
Everyone prepares for bed.
LIZ
...holds her travel bag while she brushes her teeth at
the water spigot.
MAX
Always be prepared.
She spits and looks up to see him standing there with his
toothbrush, too.
MAX
I think you and I are the only ones who
brought them.
LIZ
(wiping her mouth)
Well, contrary to what some people think,
gum is not a dental hygiene alternative.
(jump)
LIZ (CONT'D)
Max, I know you think we shouldn't be
together, and maybe you're right. But
you made me a part of this. And I care
about what's out there just as much as
you do.
As she leaves him standing there alone we see that Maria has
watched their whole interaction from across the campsite.
She looks at Liz, worried for her friend.
A '70s Father Talks to his '90s Daughter
EXT. FRAZIER WOODS - CAMPGROUND - NIGHT
INSIDE
LIZ
You thought I was taking drugs.
JEFF
I didn't know what to think. You're so...
grown up all of a sudden and all these
new friends are always around and...
(beat)
I just don't feel like I'm part of your
life anymore, that's all.
She realizes this is hard for him.
LIZ
I understand. But there's just a lot of
stuff going on with me right now.
Nothing bad or anything. It's just stuff I can't share.
JEFF
I lived through the Seventies, honey.
There's nothing I haven't heard.
LIZ
I guess it's just that whole privacy thing,
Dad.
JEFF
(beat)
Sure.
LIZ
(takes her sleeping bag)
I think I'm just gonna go outside and
sleep with Maria.
JEFF
It's kind of cold...
LIZ
(about more than the cold)
I'll be okay.
JEFF
(understanding)
I know you will.
The Long Walk
EXT. FRAZIER WOODS - NIGHT
LIZ
Don't leave me out, Max. Please.
Max is put on the spot.

This is a big mistake, Max. Letting them
all in was just a big...

freezing out here.
EXT. FRAZIER WOODS - SOMEWHERE ELSE - NIGHT
River Dog and Michael walk.
RIVER DOG
Rest. The walk is long.
MICHAEL
I'm not tired.
River Dog looks at him, smiles.
MICHAEL (CONT'D)
What?
RIVER DOG
You remind me of him. Angry. Alone.
Always think something he never quite
said.
Michael looks at him, knowing who he's talking about.
MICHAEL
What did you call him? Nasedo?
(River Dog nods)
You knew him pretty well, huh?
RIVER DOG
Before he left the reservation.
MICHAEL
(beat, then)
Did he really leave?
RIVER DOG
I told your friend. He left forty years
ago.
MICHAEL
Yeah, right.
River Dog looks at Michael, not sure what he meant by that.
MICHAEL
Let's just keep going.

A sheriff's car pulls up to Maria, Liz and two deputies.
Jeff and Philip run out of the car.

Oh my God, you two scared us to death!

He's missing too.
Liz looks at Maria. Jeff watches this, noticing, wondering
what is going on and we CUT TO:
