How It Begins
You are a scriptwriter carrying your knapsack (containing your seven-part script for "Fritz, We Hardly Knew Ye", a mini-series about the life of walter Mondale) and a slip that confirms your 8 AM appointment with legendary TV producer, Irving M. Sowritch. You have just been waved through the Melrose Gate at Paramount Studios. The administration building is to the northeast.
Unfortunately, en route to the appointment, you have an unlikely accident involving a mail cart and actor Eddie Murphy. You regain consciousness in the studio infirmary, where Nurse Bunwarmer insists you sign a release form before she returns your empty knapsack and a new appointment slip to meet I.M. Sowritch at 5 PM. You'll need that time. All seven scripts must be found and they could be anywhere on the Paramount Studios lot.
