SCENE 1:
Early morning at TA
[ Mark is sitting at his desk
when his office phone rings. ]
MARK: Hey Jim, how’s it
going?
JIM: Good, good. You get my
email this morning?
MARK: Of course. I told all the
shift managers about the new
TA credit already.
JIM: That was fast. I really want
our employees to push this to
the customers so I’ve came
up with a little incentive.
MARK: Oh yeah, what does it
Involve.
JIM: Well, whatever team between
nights, days, and the Salon gets
the most sign ups this season
will get a $1 raise.
[ Mark opens the door to his
office. Looking down at the store
he notices a new cashier who
sees him and waves. ]
I’ll have the results at the end
of March. Got it?
MARK: Sure do and you can
count on days to win. I gotta
go Jim. Something just
came up downstairs.
SCENE 2:
Up front at TheAisles.
[ Monica is clocking out for
break. Then she walks outside,
looking around the parking lot.
Suddenly her new fiancé appears,
handing her a bag & they kiss. ]
MONICA: You’re so sweet babe.
Thanks for bringing me lunch.
KYLE: No problem. I’m actually
on my way to an interview.
MONICA: That’s great news!
KYLE: I know. That gym that I
go to all the time asked me
last night if I ever thought of
being a personal trainer.
MONICA: Sounds good. I’m
just glad you’ll be keeping
your clothes on from now
on.
[ She winks at him. ]
MONICA: So who’s your best
man? Have you decided yet?
KYLE: Well, Marty I’ve known
for longer but then Landyn hit
me with the whole I probably
will never have a wedding
of my own. So I’m not sure
yet.
MONICA: Well, go with your
heart. I’m sure whoever you
don’t choose will be just as
supportive.
KYLE: Yeah. [He looks down.]
SCENE 3:
At a local call center.
[ LeeVigh is on the phone dealing
with a frantic customer. ]
LEEVIGH: Oh sure. I’d be upset
too if I was being overcharged.
Let me just look into your billing
for a second and find out where
the problem is.
[ Leevigh is silent for a couple
moments looking over the account. ]
LEEVIGH: I see that you haven’t been
making full payments for months.
It also appears that you are going
over your minutes as well.
We could put you in a plan that
would better suit your usage
but we would need a payment
on the past due balance.
[ Minutes later LeeVigh is talking
to his neighbor. ]
LEEVIGH: God, this woman was
getting on my last nerve!
FRIEND: Yeah, I heard you cuss her
out on mute.
[ Suddenly LeeVigh’s team leader
Tessa comes over. ]
TESSA: Hey Lee, I’m ready for
your interview.
SCENE 4:
Back inside TA.
[ Mark is downstairs staring at
the new cashier when Hahn
interrupts him. ]
HAHN: You and Jim have a nice
chat?
MARK: Oh yeah. Ever since we
entered the top 3 grocery chains
in the state, he’s been all over
my ass to keep it going.
By the way, that doesn’t look like
our Syria.
HAHN: Oh yeah. That’s our new
cashier, Lacey.
MARK: Lacey, huh?
[ Mark starts walking toward
her. ]
“Hey, I’m Mark. The manager.
It’s nice to meet you.”
[ He reaches out his hand, not
taking his eyes off & examining
the young females body. Hahn
sees & passes by them. ]
[ coughing ] HAHN: Ski
. . .watch it.
[ But Mark ignores him. ]
SCENE 5:
Back at the call center.
[ Inside the manager office,
Leevigh is instructed to sit
down in the chair. ]
LEEVIGH: Are you sure your
boss doesn’t mind me
sitting in her chair?
TESSA: Don’t worry about it.
She’s gone on lunch.
[ Suddenly the light flickers
off as Tessa gets situated. ]
TESSA: Damn, I knew that
was gonna happen.
[ She grabs a light bulb out
of the drawer and gets up
on the desk. ]
TESSA: Could you hold my
legs steady while I do this?
I don’t wanna fall.
LEEVIGH: Sure, I guess.
[ He stands up nervously,
trying hard not to stare. ]
SCENE 6:
Back in Mark’s office.
HAHN: Earth to Simon.
Did you forget about
someone back there?
MARK: Of course not.
You know I love Ski.
HAHN: Then what’s the
deal boss?
MARK: I don’t know, man. I mean,
I was married for 10 years.
Then I met Ski & now I feel
like I’m backtracking. Its
difficult liking both.
HAHN: Maybe you should
talk to Amber.
talk to Amber.
See how she deals.
MARK: Yeah, maybe.
[ An hour later, Mark dials his
best friend. ]
MARK: Hey Acer, what do
you think about hitting up
the casino this weekend?
I need to get some stuff
off my mind.
SCENE 7:
[ LeeVigh is helping Tessa
down & they end up facing
each other. ]
LEEVIGH: So, I believe you had
some questions to ask me.
I’m really wanting to get off
the phones.
And I think I would be a great
team leader. I mean, I know
most everyone and I’m always
answering questions.
TESSA: Yeah, yeah. Stop talking
please.
[ She sits at the desk across from
him. ]
LEEVIGH: What?
TESSA: You heard me. Less talking.
More of this.
[ She leans over & starts kissing
LeeVigh. Suddenly the office
door opens, but they don’t
hear. ]
“What the hell is going
on in here?”
