THE 2-3 YEAR PLAN

Coming to a theater far away from you PREMISE:
A bunch of economics majors, confronted with horrifying thoughts of having to make money some day and live the rest of their lives out side of academia, plan for success in about 2 to 3 years with the advice of Clem, someone older "who has been there, done that." This is Clem --->


SYNOPSIS: CLEM has spent most of his life in his mother's garage. Although his mother disagrees, Clem assures her he's on the verge of creating something great . . . in another 2 to 3 years.

One day while tooling around with some metal and very special chemicals, Clem and his economics 101 buddies, SAM and YO, decide to plug a toaster into the thing Clem's been drilling on all night. Low and behold out come 87 gallons of expensive glowing liquid (which the U.S. Government probably won't like).

Clem, Sam and Yo split from the garage just before a number of men-in-suits show up. Clem's mother tells them they have gone and she's sorry to see them go because now there's no no way she'll be able to get her mini-cupcakes out of the freezer because it's blocked by the Alpha Romeo clunker Clem's been working. At an inch a day, she complains it'll take her about 2 to 3 years to move it. The men-in-suits, split quickly, not wanting to help.

Meanwhile, Clem and his buddies have decided to hide out in academia . . . who would be looking for a bunch of crazy, beer-drinking, irresponsible, idiots at the Wharton School of Economics. As one might have expected, it's not long before Clem runs into one of Saddam Hussein's ex-girlfriends, TWEEDIE, an economics major, who thinks Clem is really cool. So cool she introduces Clem, and his buddies, to her girlfriends, all economics majors who have just started a new multi-level business to compete with AMWAY. They call it, ASSWAY, but there's just one problem, they have no products to distribute. After one week of sheer hell trying to figure out what to distribute, Clem suggests that maybe they could distribute the green fluid he made back in his mother's garage.

Considering it a stroke of brilliance, they begin distributing "Clem's Liquid" and bill it as 'a universal liquid that's good for anything.' This product becomes so popular they quickly build a multi-level organization that's hundreds of people strong distributing thousands of ounces of Clem's Liquid. No one really knows why it's selling so well, it just is. Clem thinks it might be the fact that it smells better and better with each passing day. Tweedie, thinks it might be because the liquid removes more and more wrinkles every day. Sam thinks its because the liquid removes more and more finger prints every day. And Yo, just thinks it's because you have twice as much liquid in your bottle every day, thus there's more to sell every day.

Eventually they all get filthy rich and begin depositing their money in off-shore banks with the help of other economics majors, who now want in on the action. It's not long before all the rest of the economics majors want to become successful entrepreneurs like Clem, Sam, Yo and Tweedie. So Clem sets up a garage like the one at his mother's house in his dormatory. Here he trains his new friends how to make more green liquid and Tweedie signs them up for ASSWAY.

Within about 2 to 3 years, the plan is working so well everyone is making lots of money selling the green liquid and dropping out of school.

Eventually something really weird happens.. . . Clem decides that he doesn't want to make any more money, that's that's not what life's all about, just -- MAKING MONEY. Sam and Yo agree. So all three go home, back to the garage where Clem's mother has finally moved the old Alpha Romeo the last inch, freeing it from the freezer. Glad and relieved they can finally help, they open the freezer and all sit down to enjoy frozen cupcakes . . . and plan their next project, which they estimate will take 2 to 3 years. Clem's mother is skeptical.
