The News Never Sleeps/Transcript

(Nelson is sleeping in bed, when his Lloyd alarm clock wakes him up.)

Nelson: (Turns off his alarm clock, throws off the covers, jumps out of bed, running in place, excitedly.) This is it! This is it! (Continues his daily routine: Brushes his teeth. Eats his cereal. Slides down the stairs, passing by pictures of him when he was younger. He packs in his sandwich into his backpack.)

Nelson’s Mom: (Comes our of her room, rubbing her eyes. Calls up the stairs to Nelson.) Honey, it’s time to wake up!

Nelson: I’m already up, mom!

Nelson’s Mom: Nelson? What are you doing?

Nelson: Don’t you remember? I’m starting today as a paperboy!
