Captain Cliche

INT, BOX
Captain Cliche and Obvious Boy are trapped.

Obvious Boy: We're trapped in a box, Captain Cliche!
Captain Cliche: You hit the nail on the head, Obvious Boy.
Obvious Boy: There must be some kinda way out of here, Captain Cliche.
Captain Cliche: There isn't, old chum. Unless ...
Obvious Boy: Holy self-storage, Captain Cliche. It looks like this box is a coffin!
Captain Cliche: Well, we'll just have to think outside the box, won't we?

EXT, OUTSIDE THE BOX - DAY
They're standing outside the box.

Obvious Boy: Wow! We're outside the box. How'd you do that?
Captain Cliche: The power of thinking, old chum. Wait!
Obvious Boy: What is it, Captain Cliche?
Captain Cliche: It's that! Look! (pointing
Obvious Boy: It's a can!

There is, in fact, a can on the road.

Captain Cliche: Yes it is, Obvious Boy.
Obvious Boy: Is it dangerous?
Captain Cliche: Could be. Let's just kick that can down the road.
Obvious Boy: Good thinking Captain Cliche!
Captain Cliche: No time for thinking, old chum.

He kicks the can.
