Finding Hope is a short screenplay written by Therealjackieboy as a final project for his high school literature class. jackieboy wrote the screenplay as an homage to Spaghetti Westerns, mainly the ones made by Sergio Leone, containing loads of references to various Westerns of his, along with a bit of deconstruction. jackieboy has no intent on turning the screenplay into a movie, and just wanted to tell a story using a different format.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It's been a year after the Civil War has ended, and the Peck family, consisting of Lee, his wife Maude, and their son Gerald, finish up what they are doing in order to pray to God and have some lunch together. Right as they are about to chow down, the Peck family is invaded by an unwelcome and mysterious stranger who goes under the name Jack Angel. Things start going for the worst when Angel claims to be hunting sheriffs for the sole purpose of exterminating every human being on earth, Lee being one of them. The plot then takes a turn for the worst.A novelization has also been written by therealjackieboy, which can be viewed here.Spoilers are unmarked, it's best to read the script first before diving into this page.

But for Me, It Was Tuesday: Jack Angel forgets who Nobody is, despite the fact that he killed his sister fifteen years ago. He suddenly remembers seconds before he dies.

Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?: Maude talks some sense into Jack Angel (who has a gun pointed at her husband) without caring about what he'll do to her.

Dodge the Bullet: Nobody dodges both of Jack Angel's bullets when he first meets him. Same can't be said for their duel.
