          EXT. CROWD SCENES. VARIOUS.


A massive crowd, it could be a sports stadium, a u2 farewell

show or new year's eve on copacabana beach, but whatever it

is there are thousands and thousands of us. A mexican wave

erupts success, celebration, with so many involved it's

impossible to pick out anyone individually. Critical mass

cyclists, easter crowds at st. Peter's basilica, nyc

marathon, 4,000 flash mobbers doing the silent disco at

london's victoria station, india's kumbh mela, macy's

thanksgiving day parade, raves, subway parties, the daytona

500. . . . Gradually the screen splits into 2, and then 3,

though at times there appears to be no division at all.
          EXT. FREEWAY. NIGHT.
