Int. - Jason's house - morning.

Jason walks into the kitchen. It is empty. Jason walks back to the guest room door. Jason can hear nick snoring loudly. Jason then walks to the basement stairs and heads down. He peaks around the corner at the bottom of the stairs. Amanda and Michelle are still asleep on the couch.

Jason

How do they sleep so long?

Jason walks back up to the kitchen and starts to make pancakes. Not long after the first batch is done, Michelle and Amanda walk up the stairs rubbing their eyes.

Michelle

What's that smell?

Amanda

I think someone's cooking.

They walk into the kitchen. Jason sits at the table and points at the pancakes on the counter.

Jason

Help yourself.

Amanda

Pancakes!

Amanda rushes forward and grabs a few pancakes. Michelle looks at Jason uncertainly.

Michelle

Will there be enough for everyone?

Jason

Don't worry, I made plenty.

Michelle

Alright.

Michelle grabs a few pancakes and joins Jason and Amanda at the table.

Michelle

Where's Nick?

Jason

Still sleeping.

Michelle

Still?

Amanda

They were up late in the garage.

Michelle

Oh, so when did yuk guys get to bed?

Jason

About four hours ago.

Michelle

(Shocked)

What? How are you awake?!

Jason

I don't know.

Amanda

Your probably just excited about your parts coming.

Michelle

Car parts, I should have guessed.

Jason

What? I'm a guy!

Michelle

Your family always is receiving car parts.

Jason

So?

Michelle

So, that's a lot!

Jason

Yep.

Amanda

You or your dad is always working on something.

Jason

I'm failing to see the problem.

Michelle

You never seem to see the problem.

Nick walks into the kitchen.

Amanda

Morning.

Nick

Morning.

Jason

Have some pancakes.

Nick

They smell good.

Michelle

They are!

Nick grabs some pancakes and joins the others at the table.

Nick

So what's the plan?

Nick takes a big bite of food.

Jason

Finishing up the car, there's a race tonight.

Nick

Really?

Jason

Yep, you can come if you want.

Amanda rolls her eyes.

Amanda

Your gonna get caught one of these days.

Jason

Probably but you know I need to win tonight.

Michelle

You always say that.

Jason

Yeah, but this time is different.

Michelle

How so?

Amanda

He made a bet.

Nick

What kind of bet?

bad kind.

Nick

How so?

Jason

I owe a lot of money to a guy named Cameron.

Michelle

Cameron?

Jason

Yeah.

Nick

Who's Cameron?

Amanda

An asshole that seems to think he owns everything.

Nick

Oh, that's not good.

Jason

Nope not at all.

Michelle

So if you win?

Jason

Then I'm fine, and my debt is gone.

Nick

And if you lose?

Jason

Then he takes my car, and what I owe already.

Michelle

Pretty big gamble isn't it?

Jason

I don't have a choice.

Amanda

Why?

Nick finishes his food and puts his plate in the sink.

Jason

I can't let my parents find out. If they do, I'll lose the car anyways.

Nick

Alright, I'm in. What do you want me to do to help?

Jason

You can help me get the car set.

Nick

Alright.

Nick and Jason head into the garage.

Amanda

I had no idea he was in that big of a mess.

Michel

Neither did I.

Michelle gets up from the table and goes back downstairs. Amanda follows her.

Jason

Thanks for your help.

Nick

No problem. Where's the race at?

Jason

Outskirts if town.

Nick

Ok, I'll be there.

Jason

Be careful, you don't want to get mixed in with this.

Nick

I think I already have.

Jason looks at nick.

Jason

I guess you have.
