Okay only 15 pages to go but how to end it?? I've got to wrap it all up in two and a half scenes!!

Here's the rundown.
the two MCs get fired, fail a bank robbery, go on the lamb as old ladies, hide at the zoo, hook up with one MC's mom, and have plans to fly to Rio with fake Ids to stay with the mother's secret lover.

I'd like to end it just before or just after they get to Rio. The opening eluded to liturature having to "end someone's story" without killing them off.

I'd also really like to end with the lines:
MC1: Well I guess this is the end of our story.
MC2: What a crappy ending!
MC1: At least nobody died...

Any thoughts?

What's just happened in the scene before you stopped?

I agree with the poster above me; what's just happened that you can continue from? And why do you need to do it in only two and a half scenes?

I'd like to finish soon because I don't have much time left (eeeek!) and I don't think there's enough of it to add another complicated plot twist. Right now I have them hanging out at the zoo. (I'll post zoo scene if you want to read it) They're waiting for the mother to make arrangements to fly out of the country and are killing time with a group of speceal needs ppl. Pretty much they're just hanging out... Not many places to go from there. Or too many places to go hehe.
