"TOY STORY"

FADE IN: INT. ANDY'S BEDROOM

A row of moving boxes lie on the floor of the room. They are drawn up in crayon to look like a miniature Western town. The bedroom is lined with cloud wallpaper giving the impression of sky.

One of the boxes has a children's illustrated "WANTED" poster of a Mr. Potato Head taped to it.

A MR. POTATO HEAD DOLL is set in front of the poster. The VOICE OVER of ANDY, a 6-year-old boy, can be heard acting out all the voices of the scene.

ANDY (AS POTATO HEAD)
Alright everyone, this is a stick-
up! Don't anybody move! Now empty
that safe!

A GROUP OF TOYS have been crowded together in front of the "BANK" box.

Andy's hand lowers a CERAMIC PIGGY BANK in front of Mr. Potato Head and shakes out a pile of coins to the floor. Mr. Potato Head kisses the coins.

ANDY (AS POTATO HEAD)
Ooh! Money. Money. Money.
(kissing noises)

A porcelain figurine of the shepherdess, BO PEEP, is brought into the scene.

ANDY (AS BO PEEP)
Stop it! Stop it, you mean old
potato!


ANDY (AS POTATO HEAD)
Quiet Bo Peep, or your sheep get
run over!

The companion porcelain sheep are placed in the center of a Hot Wheels track loop.

ANDY (AS SHEEP)
Heeeeelp! BAAAAA! Heeeelp us!
