World War Z


 * [first lines; in Philadelphia, a sleeping couple, Gerry and Karin are awakened by their kids jumping onto their bed]
 * Constance Lane: Wake up!
 * Karin Lane: Creatures in our bed!
 * Rachel Lane: No, it’s not!
 * Karin Lane: Oh, you’re getting very big. What do you wanna eat?
 * Constance and Rachel: Pancake!
 * [the girls laugh]
 * [later in the kitchen, Gerry prepares the girls their pancakes as the news is on the TV in the background]
 * Gerry Lane: Hey, by the way, what do you want for your Birthday?
 * [Rachel whispers to Constance]
 * Rachel Lane: Say puppy.
 * Constance Lane: A puppy.
 * Gerry Lane: You mean a stuffed animal puppy? Cause that we can do.
 * [Gerry places a plate of pancakes on the table]
 * Gerry Lane: It’s cool. Let’s eat.
 * [Karin walks into the kitchen and puts her arms around the girls]
 * Karin Lane: Good morning.
 * [she kisses the girls]
 * Rachel Lane: She gets the bigger one?
 * Constance Lane: Yeah, I’m sorry.
 * [to Rachel]
 * Karin Lane: Did you pack your um…inhaler?
 * [Rachel shakes her head]
 * Karin Lane: Bathroom sink.
 * Rachel Lane: In a minute?
 * Karin Lane: Scooch.
 * Rachel Lane: Okay.
 * [Rachel leaves the kitchen]
 * [as Gerry listen to the morning news we hear snippets of the coming events; Taiwan treating an outbreak of rabies and a Third-World nation under Martial Law]
 * Constance Lane: Daddy, what’s Martial Law?
 * Gerry Lane: Uh…
 * [Gerry laughs]
 * Gerry Lane: Martial Law is like uh…house rules, but for everybody.
 * Constance Lane: Were you ever in places like that with your old job?
 * Gerry Lane: Mm-hmm. But I quit my old job so I could be with you.
 * Constance Lane: Do you miss it?
 * [Karin and Gerry look at each other for a moment and smile]
 * Gerry Lane: No, I like my new job.
 * Constance Lane: All you do is make pancakes in the morning.
 * Gerry Lane: Yeah, but I’m really good at it.
 * [Rachel comes back into the kitchen carrying a stuffed toy rabbit]
 * Rachel Lane: Look who I found?
 * Karin Lane: Woh.
 * Rachel Lane: Here comes the number twelve train!
 * [Constance takes the stuffed rabbit from Rachel and hugs it]
 * Gerry Lane: It’s not Subway Sam, is it?
 * Karin Lane: You want more pancakes?
 * Rachel Lane: No.
 * Karin Lane: Okay. Go, go, go.
 * [the girls leave the table]
 * Karin Lane: Come on, scooch. Movin’ on out.
 * [the girls and Karin leave the kitchen]
 * Gerry Lane: Hey, plates in the sink!
 * Rachel Lane: Do not forget that!
 * [as they get stuck in downtown Philadelphia traffic with Gerry driving, Karin and the girls are playing a game]
 * Karin Lane: Uh…does it live in the jungle?
 * [Constance whispers something to Rachel]
 * Rachel Lane: Oh, no.
 * Gerry Lane: Do you eat it on Sundays?
 * Rachel Lane: No.
 * Gerry Lane: Does it live on the Great Plains of Africa?
 * Constance Lane: Yeah!
 * Rachel Lane: Oh, well, I guess yeah.
 * Gerry Lane: Do people keep it in pens, or harvest it for meat?
 * [they all laugh]
 * Constance Lane: Dad!
 * Karin Lane: Is it an animal you’d have for a pet?
 * Rachel Lane: Yes.
 * Gerry Lane: Is it a cat?
 * Rachel Lane: Yes!
 * [Karin smiles at Gerry]
 * Rachel Lane: Okay, now we have another one.
 * [to Gerry]
 * Karin Lane: You totally got one!
 * [as they continue to sit in traffic, Karin notices a helicopter flying overhead]
 * Karin Lane: Why are there so many, it’s like three in the last five minutes.
 * [then they notice a commotion ahead of them]
 * Gerry Lane: What is going on?
 * [Gerry puts on the radio]
 * Voice of News Reader: World Health Organization has been tracking the recent outbreak of rabies that began in Taiwan and has now been reported in over twelve countries. Responding to allegations he hasn’t done to prevent the spread…
 * [to Gerry]
 * Karin Lane: Can we try BBC?
 * Gerry Lane: You’re not British anymore, darling.
 * [Karin smiles]
 * Gerry Lane: You lost your accent a long time ago, except after two bottles of wine.
 * Rachel Lane: Am I British?
 * Karin Lane: Yeah, your Grandma is.
 * [at that moment a police on motorcycle rides past them which clips the car’s side mirror off]
 * Karin Lane: Hey!
 * Gerry Lane: Woh!
 * Rachel Lane: He’s just gonna keep going, daddy?
 * Gerry Lane: Hold on, guys.
 * [Gerry starts getting out of the car]
 * Rachel Lane: Daddy, be careful on the road.
 * Gerry Lane: It’s okay, baby.
