1EXT. SPACE STATION

We PAN across an area of space outlined by nebula. As we PAN to the right of the screen we can see a space station.

We see a stream of fish swim past the spacestation to the left of the screen.

The camera focuses to the right hand side of the door/hatch and we see the FISHERMAN walk out with his fishing rod and sit down, he CASTS his rod and we wait.

We CUT TO the FISH. The FISHERMAN spots the FISH and we see money signs come from his eyes. The FISH bites onto the line and the FISHERMAN REELS him in.

The FISHERMAN overwhelmed by the weight PULLS the FISH over his head and in through the door behind him. On the way in the FISH SLAPS the FISHERMAN in the face. The FISHERMAN FALLS over.

INT. SPACE STATION

CUT TO:

The FISH starts swimming around inside the spacestation. The FISHERMAN bursts in through the door.

The FISH is able to navigate the station with ease the FISHERMAN has some trouble.

The FISHERMAN while chasing and trying to GRAB the FISH crashes into a space crate.

INT. SPACE STATION

The FISHERMAN is frustrated, and wants to catch the fish. He OPENS his cupboard which contains his spacesuits and gadgets, they FLOAT in the air. Among the gadgets is an OXYGEN TANK which floats above the FISHERMAN as he is frantically trying to collect his gear.

As the OXYGEN TANK is floating above the FISHERMAN the FISH turns off the gravity with a large button. The OXYGEN TANK falls onto the FISHERMAN's head.

INT. SPACE STATION

The gravity is now off. The FISHERMAN is sitting down in the spacestation nursing his sore head, behind him the FISH is pulling tongues at the FISHERMAN.

2The FISHERMAN turns around to look at the fish, annoyed he grabs the weapon infront of him.

The FISHERMAN FIRES his weapon but it explodes in his face. He is dazed.

The FISH swims towards the gravity button and presses the button in with it's fin.

The gravity is on again and A box of fishing tackle hits the FISHERMANS foot.

The fish presses the button again, objects float around.

The FISH presses the button again the gravity is turned on and a spacesuit falls over the FISHERMANS head.

As the fisherman moves the spacesuit and as he turns the gravity is turned off and on again. 4 science vials fall on his head one after the other.

The gravity is turned off, A huge STICK OF DYNAMITE floats above the fisherman. The gravity is turned on and it hits his head.

The FISHERMAN sees the STICK OF DYNAMITE and gets the idea to use it on the FISH to stop him. He lights it and places it towards the fish trapping him.

The STICK OF DYNAMITE makes a ting bang.

The FISHERMAN is confused and inspects the STICK OF DYNAMITE.

The STICK OF DYNAMITE explodes and so does the space station with it. The FISHERMAN is left floating in space.

The FISH is stuck in one of the FISHERMAN's nets blown out by the explosion.

The FISHERMAN celebrates thinking he has caught the FISH however he doesn't notice the larger fish behind him.

The larger fishes mouth opens.

FADE OUT
