" The Letter A (conclusion) "

[ Stuu wakes up realizing

its light outside. ]

'Shit!'

[ He sits up and grabs

his phone. ]

[ On the other side of town,

 Joh and Weis are walking

into MSCC. ]

JOH: Dude.  You got

the stuff?

WEIS: You mean this

sexy survey brought

to you by the new

LGBTA.

JOH: Yup.  Since

when is there an

A anyway, right?

[ They both laugh. ]

WEIS: Stop number

ten.  You really have

to empty all these?

JOH: Yes.  Well if

you know who had

shown his face

I wouldn't be

doing it alone.

WEIS: Oh.  Maybe the

frat will teach him

a lesson by spanking

him with that big

paddle. They still have

those right?

[ Joh shakes his head. ]

WEIS: As for Stuu's

crazy behavior,

you shouldn't be

surprised.

Running away

seems to be his

forte.

JOH: Last semester?

Yeah sure.  But

Stuu has changed.

Well, we better get

 a seat.

[ Joh walks into class

as a survey falls out

from his bag. ]

'Hey, you dropped

this.’

[ Weis sees a familar

name on the top and

skips to his answer

for Question 1. ]

D. Never

SCENE 2

‘You’re serious,

a script?’

MARK: Don’t be so

modest Lando, I’m  

familiar with your

past work.

[ He pulls out an old

underwear ad and

sits it in on the

desk. ]

LANDYN: So I did

some shitty prints for

a non-existent store

10 years ago,

what’s your point?

MARK: The point is I

want to use this newly

discovered talent of

yours to take our store

to the next level.

LANDYN: By doing

what exactly?

MARK: We’re launching

a series of commercials

and you’re going to be

our spokesperson.

LANDYN: Right. And this

definitely won’t put me

on a one-way trip back

to crazy town.

MARK: You’ll be fine.

Trust me.  Now I have

some scenes I want

you to look over.

We’re doing some

test shoots in about

[ Hands Landyn papers

and looks at his watch. ]

‘Three hours.’

LANDYN: What?

MARK: Just look these

over and I’ll see you

then. Gotta go help

 up front.

SCENE 3

‘Hey nerd.  Thanks

for the warning.’

[ Stuu looks around

as Joh walks up. ]

STUU: Sorry I over-

slept bro. Had a late

night.

JOH: Sure. Was there

some all-night science

marathon on TV?

[ Joh laughs, then

stops at Stuu’s

serious expression. ]

JOH: What’s up?

STUU: Look, I should

probably tell you

now that. . .

JOH: Something

happened with you

 and Weis, didn’t it?

STUU: Well, yes

and no.

JOH: What does

that mean?

STUU: It means, I

freaked out and

stopped him.

JOH: Okay, so it

was your first

time. You were

nervous, right?

STUU: I wish that

was it.  Truth is

I could’ve done it.

And that is scaring

me shit less.

SCENE 4

[ Landyn enters the

back room and sees

the set up for the

commercial. ]

‘Right on time.’

MARK: This is Kyle.

He’ll be holding the

cue cards for you.

I’ll be sitting

here directing.

 Just focus on the

camera and your

lines, you got it?

LANDYN: Sure thing

boss.

[ He rolls his eyes

and walks behind

the counter. ]

[ Outside the store,

Ace sees Amber

sitting on the bench. ]

ACE: I see the back

room is blocked off.

What’s Mark got up

his sleeve now?

AMBER: Who knows.

I thought I’d never

get out here for

a break.

[ She takes a hit of

her cigarette as

Ace starts to yawn. ]

ACE: Sorry. I’ve been

up since 5 and Hithe

would pick the day

before the Salon open

to leave early.

AMBER: Yeah, he’s

been weirder than

usual lately.

Well, break’s done.

Tell Karie I said hi.

SCENE 5

‘CUT!’

MARK: It’s faster,

fresher, friendlier.

That’s the motto!

LANDYN: With all the

money you’ve spent

you should’ve hired

a writer too.

[ Mark smirks. ]

‘Just take it from

the top wise ass.’

[ Landyn starts to

read his lines when

suddenly a man with

a white coat and a

women burst through

the door. ]

‘Dr. Abrams?

Dani?’

MARK: Hello?

I ‘m the one who

says cut here.

DR. ABRAM: Sorry to

Interrupt your pro-

duction Sir, but your

star here broke out

of our facility three

days ago. 

SCENE 6

[ 15 minutes until

night shift at the

Aisles. ]

  JOH: Just because

you’re asexual or

whatever doesn’t

mean it’s over.

STUU: Yeah right.  We

both know Weis is

well. . .experienced.

JOH: Yeah, and maybe

It doesn’t matter.

Just talk to him when

he’s gets here.  Give

it a chance.

[ Stuu heads outside.

Meanwhile Weis pulls

into the back lot with

a stranger. ]

‘Thanks for the ride

and the green. You

didn’t have to drop

me off.’

TREY: Not a problem.

Anything for a loyal

customer.

[ He laughs and Weis

starts to get his stuff. ]

TREY: Wait, there’s a

reason why I dropped

you off here.

[ Weis turns around. ]

[ 5 minutes later Stuu

enters the back lot.

Looking over he sees a

stranger kissing Weis.

As they climb over

into the back seat
and continue all he
can do is stand there. ]
