Finding Reno

Finding Reno

This is a play that my classmates and I wrote a while back. It is basically a parody of Finding Nemo.

It takes place in a car heading towards Reno, Nevada and the story unfolds from there.

Marlina: Gosh, I have no idea where I am. There's someone, I'll ask them. (rolls down window) Um, excuse me.

P. Sherman: If you ask me where I'm going. P. Sherman 42, Wallaby way, Sydney. I'll tell you again. I don't get tired of it...

Marlina: Excuse me.

P. Sherman: Oh, hello.

Marlina: I see you have a map there, and I was wondering if you could help me. You see, I'm lost, and I'm trying to get to my son in Reno.

P. Sherman: Why sure, I'll help you (gets in car).

Marlina: What are you doing? Get out of my car!

P. Sherman: Information ain't cheap. I gotta get somewhere, too. You gotta car, I gotta map. I say fair exchange.

Marlinia: (practically growling) fine...where are you headed?

P. Sherman: P. Sherman 42, Wallaby way, Sydney.

Marlina: What the heck! That's all the way in Australia!

P. Sherman: You got somthing against Australians?

Marlina: No...no I-

P. Sherman: Watch out!

Marlina: Oh, my gosh! Do you think I killed her? (gets out and helps Connie)

Random: Flow! There you are! (gets in car)

Marlina: (places Connie in car and starts driving again, looks in rearview mirror) What are you doing in my car!

Random: Hi, I'm Random. Well...well...I don't think I've ever eaten a fish before...whoo, I'm glad I got that off my chest.

Connie: Where am I...(skeptically) did you kidnap me?

Random: This is my sister, Flow! Hi, how are ya? Don't listen to anything she says...she's nuts!

Connie: Just keep driving, just keep driving...

Random: Hey little guy! I shall call him squishy, and he shall be mine. He shall be my squishy.

Marlina: How did this happen! I just want to get to Reno to see my son!

P. Sherman: P. Sherman 42, Wallaby Way, Sydney! If you ask me... I'll tell you again. I don't get tired of saying it!

RAndom: Move, Flow! I can't see! Ah! Mount Wannahawkaloogie! (covers P. Sherman's eyes)

P. Sherman: It's dark...Ah! Who's got me?

Random: It's only me...

P. Sherman: Are...are you my conscience?

Random: From now on, you shall be known as Sharkbait!

All: Sharkbait, oh-hoo-ha!

Marlina: I have definitely seen that rock before! We're going in circles!

P. Sherman: Relax. We'll just ask for directions.

Marlina: Directions! I thought that's what you and your map were for!

Connie: I'll just ask the cars! (in carspeak) We need to find Reno! Come back!

Marlina: What are you doing!

Connie: You're right, that does sound a little volkswagonish.

Marlina: You're insane!

Random: She really doesn't mean it. She never really even knew her father!

Connie ( in Carspeak) Which way to Reno?

Random: You know you're really cute, but I don't know what you're saying!

Connie: That nice Honda said take the next left.

Marlina: What! I'm not listening to some insane wacko idea! Cars don't talk!

P. Sherman: Do you have any other ideas.

Marlina: You too!

Connie: Quick, there's the exit! You're gonna miss it! On the left!

Marlina: I will do no such thing. I've already wasted gas driving you guys around everywhere. The tank's already half empty!

Random: Hmm...I'd say it's half full.

P. Sherman: (grabs the wheel) We turn left!

Marlina: What are you...!

Random: Isn't there another way! He's just a boy!

Marlina: Oh, my gosh! You almost killed us!

Random: You've got serious thrill issues, dude.

P. Sherman & Connie: Look a road sign!

Marlina: (shocked) Oh, my goodness... (in carspeak) Thank you, sir!

Connie: Wow...I wish I could speak car!

Marlina: Quick! What does it say?

All: (They all stare for a moment) P. Sherman 42, Wallaby Way, Sydney!

Random: Remember, fish are friends...not food.
