Sit Back & Press Play
Or Read It Here . . . . . . .
SCENE ONE:
Early AM, still dark out.
[ Weis is reclining on the couch with
baby Mila snuggled on top of him.
Stuu enters the room & sits down,
putting on his shoes. ]
"If you need to. Tie will be
up in the afternoon."
WEIS: Ah we'll be fine. I've
been here the whole week, I
think I've pretty much gotten
the hang of it all.
STUU: I know. And I trust you.
WEIS: Like I said, she'll be
calling me 'Da da' in no time.
[ Stuu smiles at the thought. ]
WEIS: I can't help but to wonder
about her mom. I mean, why
go through this extensive donor
process just to dissapear after
the birth.
STUU: I know. It doesn't make
much sense.
[ He starts to walk away. ]
WEIS: Probably because it's
not true. They're clearly hid-
ing something.
STUU: Even if you're right. Does
it really matter that much?
WEIS: Maybe not to you.
[ Weis looks down as Mila starts
to wake up. Stuu comes over.
Sighing heavily, he kisses them
both then leaves. ]
SCENE TWO:
Meanwhile, inside TA.
[ Back in the Meat department
Ricky is looking up at the sche-
dule as her assistant Maxx
walks up from behind. ]
"Excuse me."
[ Ricky turns around, rolling her
eyes at Maxx's smirking face. ]
RICKY: I know you viewed that
pic I sent you. Why are you act-
ing so surprised?
[ Maxx looks down, feeling caught. ]
MAXX: I don't know. It's different to
to see you in person. So what should
I call you now?
[ Ricky looks over, confused. ]
RICKY: My name genius.
[ She finally smiles. Maxx gets a
glimpse of a familiar expression
& begins to relax. ]
MAXX: So we're close enough for
me to ask. I think. Is it gone?
RICKY: Hey. I'm still your mana-
ger and we're still at our job.
Just remember that.
[ Ricky shakes her head at him
& exits toward the counter. ]
SCENE THREE:
Garage, outside Stuu's.
[ Weis leans the seat back, placing a
baby monitor down near him. He takes
out a newly wrapped grape swisher &
puffs away at the added contents.
A few minutes later he gets out
walking toward a package that's
hidden by the door. ]
"They're here."
[ Later inside, he is texting night
manager Ski. ]
WEIS: Dude. I need a favor.
SKI: It's only been one week and
you're already running for the hills.
WEIS: LOL. Actually the baby loves
me. It's Stuu who has the problems
with her.
SKI: Well I'm hoping moving him to
days would help you guys out.
WEIS: Yeah. Except now we hardly
see each other.
SKI: Well like I told you both. You
need your time. I can watch her
whenever.
WEIS: Really thanks. How about
tonight?
SCENE FOUR:
[ Behind the counter, Ricky notices
a male customer hovering over the
glass.
When Ricky comes close, the stran-
ger changes his view. ]
RICKY: Can I help you find some-
thing?
[ Ricky smiles meeting the young
man's glance for the first time.
The recieved look back was less
than warm. ]
"What did you do to your face?"
[ Maxx comes out, just in time
to hear. He starts toward the
customer with Ricky close behind
but Scott is already there. ]
SCOTT: If you really want to know.
[ Scott faces him. ]
SCOTT: Try asking in a respectful
way.
MAXX: Or he could just fuck off
out of here and mind his
own damn business.
"Is there a problem here?"
[ They turn around to see Mark
staring at them. The stranger
runs out of the store while Scott,
Maxx, & Ricky return to work. ]
SCENE FIVE:
Between cities, Zain & Joh's.
[ Joh, Zain, Tiesun, & Larrie
are sitting in the living room
when Weis enters.
Joh offers him a beer but he
declines. ]
"So how's parenthood?"
WEIS: I hate to say it but I feel
like I need a break already.
ZAIN: I thought everything
was chill with you and Mila.
WEIS: It is. But Stuu gets so
worked up over every little
thing. And he won't let any
else watch her so we can
have a night out.
TIESUN: I'm sure that will
change with time.
LARRIE: Yeah. That's normal
for new parents. You just have
to wait it out.
[ Later Joh & Weis are alone in
the basement. ]
"Did you show him the costumes?"
WEIS: Not yet. I figured with him
being an animal lover and the fact
that it doesn't involve our bodies
persay. He might consider.
JOH: The battles of being intimate
with an asexual. Next on Today.
WEIS: You're dumb. Anyway I just
have to get Stuu alone one night
and convince him.
JOH: Well good luck with that.
SCENE SIX:
End of shift, TA.
[ Ricky is walking in the parking lot.
She can tell Maxx is behind so
she picks up the pace a little. ]
"Why are you folllowing me?"
[ Ricky states, without turning
around. ]
MAXX: You made it through day
one, Just thought you might
want to.
[ He stops when Ricky turns
around, connecting their eyes. ]
RICKY: What? You just don't
understand at all. Do you?
MAXX: I'm here. Trying.
RICKY: There will be no shoot.
No name change and no cele-
bration. Alright.
I'm the same me inside that
I've always been. I don't
want to be treated any
differently.
MAXX: Okay i got it. I'll
see you tomorrow then.
[ Ricky watches as Maxx runs
back inside. ]
