"Rebel without a cause: the outstanding alternative ending"

Dear Érica, 

 

Centuries had passed since our last letters and as I'm getting a bit anxious I decided to send you my last work, produced on my online Creative Writting lessons. (a poor excuse that allows me to be alone with my laptop for a couple hours ... sorry Gabriel a girl has to breathe!)

 

It is an amateur work, but having Gabriel as my only critic is driving me crazy! Oh and by th way, he is missing very badly Robert's tacos so if you please could send some of those by plaine my weeek in L.A. would be much calmer without a race to e-v-e-r-y s-i-n-g-l-e taco store! I'll thank you in advance.

 

So moving on to the release of an undiscovered artist, ladie and gentleman, I give you ... "Rebel Without a cause: the outstanding alternative ending"! (Still working on the tittle actually).


Rebel without a cause: the alternative ending - Jim, Judy and Plato last scene together


Jim - OK Plato, they have turned out the lights. Come on now. It's safe for you to come out.


(Plato exits the Observatory and gets strangely calm at the sight of the police cars. The policemens silently start to form two lines leaving their guns and other materials in the cars that are now turned off. Jim's parents and the lady who takes care of Plato are in the middle of the front line)


Plato - What is going on here?


Jim - I don't know. Judy?


Judy - Well, I think this is the part of the film when everybody sings along, the dead are actually alive and a moral lesson about guns is taught to Plato. You Jim, reveal that you are to old to go to school because you're a policemen who got stuck with highschool dramas due to your grades and your parents live in a fantasy world, because, as they are broke, they have to play along with you so that they can afford, with your "good" salary, the fact that your grandma is living with them.


Jim - What? Are you under the effect of something girl?


Policemen 1 - Actually, no she's not. (starts singing with other policemens "YMCA")


All - «Young man, there's no need to feel down.

 

I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.

 

I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town

 

there's no need to be unhappy.


Young man, there's a place you can go.

 

I said, young man, when you're short on your dough.

 

You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find

 

Many ways to have a good time.


It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.

 

It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.


They have everything for you men to enjoy,

 

You can hang out with all the boys ...


It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.

 

It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.


You can get yourself cleaned, you can have a good meal,

 

You can do whatever you feel ...


Young man, are you listening to me?

 

I said, young man, what do you want to be?

 

I said, young man, you can make real your dreams.

 

But you got to know this one thing!


No man does it all by himself.

 

I said, young man, put your pride on the shelf,

 

And just go there, to the y.m.c.a.

 

I'm sure they can help you today.


It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.

 

It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.


They have everything for you men to enjoy,

 

You can hang out with all the boys ...


It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.

 

It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.


You can get yourself cleaned, you can have a good meal,

 

You can do whatever you feel ...


Young man, I was once in your shoes.

 

I said, I was down and out with the blues.

 

I felt no man cared if I were alive.

 

I felt the whole world was so tight ...


That's when someone came up to me,

 

And said, young man, take a walk up the street.

 

There's a place there called the y.m.c.a.

 

They can start you back on your way.


It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.

 

It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.


They have everything for you men to enjoy,

 

You can hang out with all the boys ...


Y-m-c-a ... you'll find it at the y-m-c-a.


Young man, young man, there's no need to feel down.

 

Young man, young man, get yourself off the ground.


Y-m-c-a ... you'll find it at the y-m-c-a.


Young man, young man, there's no need to feel down.

 

Young man, young man, get yourself off the ground.


Y-m-c-a ... just go to the y-m-c-a.


Young man, young man, are you listening to me?

 

Young man, young man, what do you wanna be?»


(At the end of the song Plato is already singing and embraced the going to YMCA (Young Men Criminal Assocation))


Jim - So Plato I hope you are not mad with me for not telling you.


Plato - That's alright Jim, I think YMCA will really help me. Just take care of Judy I think she will miss me more than what she thinks.


Jim - Will do Plato, farewell.


(Plato leaves to a police car and rides towards better days. Judy actually gets along well wuth her father and goes home with a song in her heart. Jim, who is a pooor lonesome cowboy and that is a long way from home decides to return to Kansas and resine from his work.)


Jim - To much drama for me old fellows, go and do that cruise that you have been talking for years. I'll go home now.


(The police has already went away with Plato and the last person standing is the old men that works in the Observatory, that after sawing Jim take the bus secretly retrieves all signs of human presence and leaves is human vessel. First the antennae then the big wings and then the green coloured skin.)


Old men - Finnaly a bit of peace in this world, lets go then! O.M. go home!


(Jumps to the sky and returns to his galaxy.)




So I hope you liked my dear friend, hope to ear from you soon!


Missing you a lot,


Sara.
