[Opening credits]

[The camera unblurs to reveal a book about the history of the Super Readers which is then opened to reveal pages of the stories they have been to.]

[first lines; two office workers are talking by the coffee machine]

Brian Johnson: It's crazy. I mean, I don’t usually fall back on, you know, how it’s…it’s women’s issues.

Gerald Anderson: But child proofed how? I mean, gates and stuff?

Brian Johnson: Dude, she did the drawers. We don’t even know if this whole thing’s gonna work, she’s screwing these little locks, I mean you can’t even open the drawers.

Gerald Anderson: At all?

Brian Johnson: Well, they open like an inch, but then you gotta dig your finger in. I mean, it’s a nightmare.

Gerald Anderson: I guess, sooner or later.

Brian Johnson: Yeah, well, a lot later! She did the upper cabinets. It’ll be thirty before it can reach ’em, assuming, you know, we have a kid.

Gerald and Brian are walking in a huge office complex, Sam interrupts their conversation]

Sam: Guys. Guys! Stockholm went south.

Gerald: Seriously? I thought they were looking good.

Brian: We're cracked.

Sam: I haven’t seen the project boards, just going around.

Brian: Well, it’s never been a stable scenario. Everyone knows you can’t trust Swedes.

Sam: That means there’s just Japan. Japan and us.

Brian: Well, it’s not the first time it’s comes down to that.

Gerald: Japan has a perfect record.

Brian: We’re number two. We try harder.

Sam: But, guys, if we fail…

Gerald: Please! We haven’t had a glitch since 98.

Brian: We know what we're doing, Sam. We have it written down, somewhere.

Sam: You guys better not be messing around in there.

Gerald: Ooh, does this mean you’re not in the betting pool this year? Big money.

Sam: I’m just saying it’s a key scenario.

Brian: No, I heard what you’re saying. In 98 it was Chem department’s fault, right?

[looking at Sam]

Brian: Where do you work again? Wait, it’s coming back to me now.

[just at that moment they ride off in their buggy leaving Sam behind]

[just as they leave Sam and are driving off in their buggy]

Brian: This will be a long weekend if everyone’s that puckered up. So you wanna come over Monday night? I’m gonna pick up some power drill, then we’re gonna hit my cabinets.

[Gerald doesn’t answer as he’s messing around with this coffee cup]

Brian: Are you even listening to me?

[At that moment the movie’s title hits the screen ‘Super Why!: The Movie]
