There should be a few major turning points and the protagonist should have a goal, and to reach it must conquer somewhat unsurmountable odds.
Well if that is the case this should make a bloody good story.
Ladies and Gentleman, allow me to present Spring Break 2006.
ACT 1
Our 2 heroes Mark and Jez board the Virgin Plane - hoping she will go all the way.
She doesn't dissapoint.
On the plane, Jez reveals their mission to Mark. Their quest is to go in search of Mark's smile. It has not been seen in sometime, not even a hint of a smile in any photos ever, they fear it has been stolen by the evil winds of a London Winter.
They arrive at "Mi-Am-I Really in Hell?" Airport.
They fight their way through the immigration lines, the stuff of Dante Alighieri's worst nightmares. Minions everywhere!
Battling together they make it to the front. Mark swoops in to save the Jez, when he almost tells the immigration minotaur that they will be leaving the airport to go straight to the Courthouse!! In fact it is the Courtyard hotel!
The immigration officers had been known to demand cavity searches for lesser mistakes.
This act of looking out for his best friend will be repaid many times, when Jez takes a few for the team over the next 7 days.
They make base camp at the Marriott Courtyard and call for reinforcements. They receive information that there will be a gathering of clans at Prive starting at 11 PM. They take rest before the outing.
However someone must have crept into their camp and poisoned them with a sleeping elixir! They woke at 3 am!
Jez bravely encourages Mark to follow his lead for late night nourishment to keep their strength up.
It was there at 4 am in a Ye Olde Eatery called Jerry's Deli that they came across their first allies in the war against boredom and anhedonia.
They spotted some likely lasses and asked if they could join them for some sustenance. After a few plates of Chilli Fries, their bellies full and with new compatriots who would warm their hearts and stomachs they prepared for the onslaught ahead.
ACT 2
During the day, they misjudged the intensity of the burning sun and spent the first 2 days wounded from the fires of South Beach. By night the group comprising of Jen, Jez, Jill, Mark and Melinda took their postions on the battle field of Lucky Strike, where they fought the evil ten pins!
Drunk activities ensured that the losers (the girls) ended up doing a ritualistic lap dance on each other. Our 2 heroes enjoyed this tradition very much and morale was lifted.
To rest in the day, games of Scrabble and Catch were played on the beach. (Yes you did read that right, catch and scrabble!)
All was going well on the quest for Mark's smile.
Our quest was about to get more interesting. Yolanda and Chris appeared to replace the Chilli Fry girls and more good times ensued and even later nights were had on the beach they called Nikki.
But then disaster, could the girls have been double agents? For Jez fell ill with a mystery throat complaint. 48 hours later and with supplies air dropped in by Walgreens the mighty Jez had not yet fully recouped.
The Fellowship sent 2 more experts in to help our 2 stranded heroes. The Jackie and The Lauren dragged our warriors to nourishment heaven, the Barton G and onwards to Delano mountain.
It was that night with the help of hearty steak, girly cupcakes and Corona by the tonne that the Jez was brought back to full strength.
ACT 3
Mark was losing hope that he would ever be able to smile in a photo! There was barely 48 hours to go. And already so much fun had been had. And then Jez dropped a bomb shell. To finish his quest he must go on alone, Jez could not go with him.
Jez pointed over the sand dunes and told him to walk away.
Mark was not sure what he would find...
Over the hot sandy shore he walked, he could not believe what he saw in front of him.
5 amazing girls sunbathing totally distracted by great (gulp) books like Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants! With memories of Bridget from the movie of the aforementioned book, Mark was enticed.
However this was a challenge even too big for the Mark. But Jez pushed him forward.
Mark fought off every excuse he could think of to turn back, and soon he was engaging in negotiations to hang out for the rest of the holiday with the fair maidens of Gamma Phi Beta. A powerful sorority anyway you looked at it. Cadbury's eggs were used as bargaining tools, and texts flew back and forth, but would it be enough?!
Lisa, Kelsey, Melanie, Jessica and Karen, did they have what it would take to end Mark and Jez's quest?
I'll let you be the judge of that....
Spring Break the DVD will be out next week.
