FUTURE MAX: If I were a shapeshifter, there's no way I could tell the future. In approximately 10 seconds, I will show up outside your window and begin singing to you...accompanied by a mariachi band.
LIZ: A mariachi band. Max wouldn't do anything that cheesy.
FUTURE MAX: 3...2...1.
LIZ: Well?
MAX: I said approximately.
(There is a faint music that starts getting louder)
FUTURE MAX: I spent a week learning the lyrics from Mr. Delgado at the hardware store.
(Max and his mariachi buddies start singing to Liz in Spanish)
LIZ: Wow, that's really embarrassing.
FUTURE MAX: I know...but I had to do something to get your attention. You had shut me out.
(More singing. Max throws up a bouquet of red roses to Liz)
FUTURE MAX: As I threw the flowers up to you, I remembered you preferred white roses.
(The roses change from red to white as they are in the air. Liz catches them)
LIZ: Why are you here?
FUTURE MAX: I can't tell you too much, Liz...only what you need to know...but 14 years from now, we are taken over by our enemies.
LIZ: Uh, who's taken over?
FUTURE MAX: Everyone. Earth. I need you to help me keep that from happening. We need to change the future. What we do here has to be precise and surgical. No one can know I'm here, especially not me...that is, my younger self.
LIZ: Uh, what is it you want to...
MAX: Not now...your dad's coming.
(Jeff Parker knocks on the door and enters Liz's room to find out what all the noise is about)
MR. PARKER: Lizzie? What the hell is going on out there? Is that Max again? Max, is that you again? It's 11:00. Tomorrow's a school day...
(Mr. Parker looks down and sees Max and his mariachi band singing and start to walk away)
MR. PARKER: Aw, jeez.
