( Starring Maxx /Kyle )
Saturday morning, TA.
[ Maxx dodges through clusters of
customers finally making his way
to the bakery counter.
He sees Scott sitting on a stool
towards the back and calls to
him. ]
MAXX: Must be nice to be the
only department not drowning
in a line.
And patience isn't any of
these people's virtue.
SCOTT: You're kidding me
right? I can't keep anything
in the case. And I'm the only
one here right now
First time i've sat down in
four hours.
MAXX: That's fucked up. But
at least you don't smell like
funky ass fish.
[ He laughs a little. ]
SCOTT: Yeah. I can't wait to
be on the beach. Drinks in
hand and far away from
here.
Six more days!
[ Maxx doesn't respond
but instead is busy in his
phone scrolling through
Ricky's page. ]
SCOTT: You hear me?
MAXX: Yeah man.
[ Scott gets closer to him. ]
MAXX: Ricky sure is posting
a lot lately. She didn't use
to be like that.
SCOTT: Your girlfriend is beau-
tiful. What's the problem?
MAXX: Nothing. As long as
that's all it is.
I'll see you later.
At Monica & Kyle's house.
[ Caleb enters the front door &
sees Kyle sitting on the couch
in the living room. ]
"So what happened at work
yesturday?"
[ Caleb takes a seat across
from Kyle in a chair. ]
KYLE: Just got into it with the
boss again. Another year
and they are refusing to
give me a raise for all I
do at the gym.
CALEB: I figured that. As
nice as the place is. Its
really nothing as long as
the company backing it is
crappy.
KYLE: Exactly. That's what
they fail to understand. Who
cares about the people and
the ones bringing in clients
everyday.
Hey. You want a beer?
[ Kyle springs up & walks
toward the kitchen. ]
CALEB: It's 11:30 in the
morning.
KYLE: Don't act like you've
never day drank before.
Here.
[ Kyle sits close to him. ]
CALEB: Are you sure that's
a good idea?
KYLE: Why wouldn't it be?
We can chill here all day.
Uninterrupted.
[ Caleb wants to speak. An intense
pressure builds up inside of him
but he ignores it.
Opting to take a drink instead. ]
Later that afternoon.
[ Maxx shuts off the steaming
stream of water as he stares
down at the tub.
Shutting it off, he grabs a
towel & wraps it around his
waist. Stepping out. ]
[ He joins Ricky in their bedroom. ]
MAXX: I like your hair babe.
How are Sascha and Tila
doing?
RICKY: They're fine. I'm
just finalizing a few things
about our travel plans.
[ She shuts her laptop & joins
him on the bed. ]
MAXX: We deserve it. Did you
see who made the top selling
department this month?
RICKY: I'm guessing it was meat.
MAXX: Ding ding ding. it's
cuz we make the best team.
[ He kisses her on the cheek. ]
RICKY: You're so corny. I need
to talk to you about something.
I made an appointment to see
a surgeon why were down
there.
MAXX: For what?
[ The atmosphere is shook as the
conversation suddenly gets serious. ]
Back At The Hasileda's.
KYLE: You keep hinting like
you want to talk about
something.
What is it?
[ Kyle turns around looking
squarely at Caleb while
sitting down his beer
loudly. ]
CALEB: I think you need help.
KYLE: Oh please. That wasn't
what you were going to say.
[ Caleb stands up. ]
CALEB: You really don't remember
what went on the last time
you invited me here alone?
The state I found you in?
KYLE: Nothing happened.
CALEB: I'm not delusional.
You practically forced my
head down there.
[ Kyle is stunned. ]
CALEB: Just because you
forgot doesn't mean it
didn't happen.
And the fact that you
don't remember says
a lot.
At Ricky's & Maxx'.
MAXX: I understand that
certain procedures were
necessary when you start-
ed.
But why more now?
Everyone says you look
amazing.
RICKY: I'm not feeling
completely myself just
yet and this is the reason.
[ She sits up. Starring
at the mirror & locked
onto the middle of her
face. ]
MAXX: Well. What all
is it going to take for
you to be there?
RICKY: Hey. You don't
have to worry about
any of this. I'll be fine.
MAXX: You're acting like
its a normal thing to get
work done to yourself.
It's not!
RICKY: You're right.
[ She turns around
leaning her arms on Maxx'
chest & getting closer to
him. ]
RICKY: That's why this is
the last time.
[ She silences him with
continuous soft kisses. ]
Monica arrives home.
[ Walking down the hall
she hears loud voices coming
the living room area. ]
'You should just leave."
"Push me away. That's going
to solve everything."
"Why are you still here?"
[ Monica reaches the room
to see Kyle with rage in his
eyes heading toward Caleb. ]
MONICA: Hey. What's with all
the yelling?
[ Kyle composes himself &
backs aways from Caleb. ]
KYLE: We we're just fucking
around. Sorry.
[ He looks at Caleb & then
kisses Monica on the lips
and hugs on to her. ]
CALEB: Yeah. I better go.
You two have some
catching up to do.
[ He smirks at Kyle on his
way out of the door. ]
[ Maxx dodges through clusters of
customers finally making his way
