Introduction

EXT. SUBURBAN NEIGHBORHOOD, BETWEEN HOUSES – DAY
Our host, PROFESSOR BARNARD PUCK, and his trusty assistant, BALDRIC, cautiously scan for some unseen creature.  PUCK motions BALDRIC to the house on the left.  BALDRIC sneaks off, taking slow, cautious steps.  PUCK addresses the camera.

PROFESSOR PUCK
It is a beautiful day.  And while most people are out and about enjoying friends, activities, life in general...the creature that we seek is sedentary, uninspired, and remarkably unmotivated.  My associate and I are in search of the lair of a magnificent specimen: the mature stoner.

BALDRIC, kneeling next to a basement window, motions for PROFESSOR PUCK. PUCK motions for the camera to follow him over to the window. 

PROFESSOR PUCK
(EXCITED) Ah ha! Here we go!

As they approach, BALDRIC pulls open the window, releasing a cloud of smoke. PUCK crouches next to it.  PROFESSOR PUCK looks through the window.  He fights to hold back his excitement.

TWO MALE STONERS, sitting on a ratty couch.  Smoke wafts up around them, filling the air.

EXT. SUBURBAN NEIGHBORHOOD, Between houses – DAY
The CAMERA pulls back to PROFESSOR PUCK.

PROFESSOR PUCK
In this interactive feature, we will explore and attempt to explain the social interactions and natural responses of this elusive and baffling creature.  I am your host, Barnard Puck and this... is Stoners in the Mist.

PROFESSOR PUCK and BALDRIC cautiously enter the basement. PUCK motions to the camera to follow.

PROFESSOR PUCK
Shh, stay close.
