EXT. SAN FRANCISCO INT’L AIRPORT - MORNING
An amazing Boeing Business Jet taxis toward the runway, it’s tail bears a black logo made up of a beret with “FB” reversed out, and a silhouetted pair of Raybans below it.



INFOMERCIAL NARRATOR (V.O.)
Thousands have experienced the Ferris Bueller lifestyle course firsthand, investing up to $2,000 to “Take the Day Off” with the man himself, Ferris Bueller…



INT. FERRIS BUELLER’S PERSONAL AIRLINER - CONTINUOUS A FLAT SCREEN TV RUNNING AN INFOMERCIAL:



A VIDEO B-ROLL of FERRIS BUELLER in trademark sweater vest, white T-shirt, and white bucks as he mounts the stage a la Tony Robbins before an adoring audience of SEMINAR ATTENDEES all wearing trademarked “FB” berets.



INFOMERCIAL NARRATOR
…But now you can enjoy this funfilled, energizing, and life-changing day off any time you like as you learn to embrace the Bueller Lifestyle at your convenience on CD, DVD, or iPod download!



ELECTRONIC CLICK and the flat screen goes to BLACK.
Hemmed in by an Italian-leather flight chair is FERRIS BUELLER. Forty today, virtually unchanged, he’s Peter Pan in Armani. But he seems none too happy at the moment, almost anxious, like a caged bird. He WHISTLES quietly to himself; the tune “A MAN WITHOUT LOVE,” the international hit of Engelbert Humperdinck.

— From the 12-page fanfic excerpt of Ferris Bueller: Another Day Off. Which…I mean, this guy at the St. Petersburg Times seems to think has a chance at not sucking.
