The Right Fit

Inside All Hours Fitness.

[ Kyle has a break in appointments
& is getting some time in on the
punching bag.  His pace increases
with every hit until his work mate
walks inside the room. ]

CO-WORKER: This is Sunshine.
She's new in town and wants to
talk about setting up a weekly
training schedule.
KYLE: Cool.  Thanks Brad.

[ The co-worker leaves &
Kyle looks over at Sunshine,
smiling.

Later on, they are talking. ]

KYLE: So you're telling me
you and your friend we're
pretty much kidnapped.
And where is this guy?
SUNSHINE: Last thing I
knew in jail.

[ She joins Kyle, sitting on
a bench. ]

KYLE: Great.  You're safe
then.  
SUNSHINE: Not at all.  He may
be caught now but he'll get
out soon enough and I wanna 
be prepared.

KYLE: For what?
SUNSHINE: To defend myself.
He's been doing this for a long
time and I'm gonna be the one
to finally end it.

[ She stands up, knocking the
bag away. ]


At LeeVigh's apartment.

[ Walking down to the basement,
he sees an unfamiliar person
sitting on the couch. ]

LEEVIGH: Uh, hello.

"Hey, I'm Zain.  I just started
at TA."

[ He holds out his hand &
LeeVigh shakes it. ]

LEEVIGH: Cool.  Nice to meet
you.
So what are the boys up to?
ZAIN: Joh's pulling a double.
And Weis & Stuu, no clue.
They left me in here a
couple hours ago.

LEEVIGH: Well, that's pretty
rude.  I'll get them.

[ LeeVigh heads for Weis' door. ]

ZAIN: You might not wanna do
that, man.
LEEVIGH: It's cool.  We pretty much
have an open door policy around
here.

[ He laughs while Zain shakes his head.

Opening the door, LeeVigh is startled
by what he sees. Weis jumps up, 
knocking Stuu over on the ground. ]

LEEVIGH: What are you two up to?
WEIS: Nothing.  

[ He sits up, getting dressed while
LeeVigh stares at them. ]

WEIS: Let's go practice.


Back at the Fitness Center.

KYLE: I know you didn't ask for
my opinion but this dude sounds
really dangerous.  Maybe you
should leave it alone.

SUNSHINE: I can't do that.  Even
though things turned out well
for me and my friend, he still
had no right to make our decision
for us.
KYLE: Yeah, I understand.  Just
be cautious.
SUNSHINE: Anyway a little less
talking, a lot more working
out please.

KYLE: Alright.  I'll show you my
session run through so you
can see what you're getting
into.  You ready?

[ They both stand up. ]

SUNSHINE: Yup.
KYLE: Okay.  I like to start off
with some basic stretching
techniques.  

[ Kyle spreads his legs, extending
his arms one at a time while Sun-
shine follows him. ]

KYLE: Feeling good?


After practice, Weis' room.

[ Everyone is gone except LeeVigh
& Weis. ]

LEEVIGH: So I walked in on you
 and Stuu in your boxers with him
on top of you.  That's not how
buds usually play around.

WEIS: Yeah, about that.  

[ Weis smirks at him. ]

WEIS: We're not just friends
anymore.  Obviously.
LEEVIGH: What? Last thing I
knew Stuu had an unrequited
crush on Tiesun.  Now he's 
into you?
WEIS: He's been into me for
awhile, we just haven't agreed
on certain things.
LEEVIGH: You mean, sex.

WEIS: Yes.
LEEVIGH: So what's changed
now?
WEIS: Nothing.  I have fun
with Stuu and he's a good
person.  It shouldn't matter
that he's asexual, you know.
LEEVIGH: Cool.  That's very
mature of you.
WEIS: Yeah I try.

LEEVIGH: I'm gonna go lay
down.  Later.

[ He exits & heads upstairs. ]


Later, at the Center.

[ Kyle is wrapping up his lesson. ]

KYLE: And that's pretty much it.
You exhausted yet?

[ Sunshine gets up, facing Kyle. ]

SUNSHINE: Nope.  I'm good.
Thanks for giving me this
free preview though.  
KYLE: No problem.  How's every
Tuesday at about 11 sound?
SUNSHINE: That will be perfect.
Well my rides here, I should
get going.  See you Kyle.

[ She leaves & Landyn enters
the room. ]

KYLE: Hey man, you're right on
time.
LANDYN: Who was that?
KYLE: My new client.
LANDYN: Interesting.

[ Landyn looks up at him. ]

KYLE: Yeah and don't give me
that look, I'm a happily married
man.
LANDYN: Glad to hear it.

[ Kyle takes off running &
Landyn follows him, sprinting
around the track.  ]



Inside LeeVigh's room.

[ He's laying in bed when
his phone rings. ]

LEEVIGH: Hey babe.

TESSA: Hey.  Have a good day
off?
LEEVIGH: It was alright.  Had practice
and just woke up from a little nap.

How was work?
TESSA: Pretty slow day. Nothing too
exciting.

LEEVIGH: You'll never guess what I
found out today.
TESSA: Oh yeah, what's that?
LEEVIGH: My band mates are 
dating each other.  
TESSA: You're kidding.  I didn't
even know Stuu was into guys.
LEEVIGH: Me either.
TESSA: Hopefully this doesn't
make practice too awkward for
you.

LEEVIGH: Thanks.  I never thought
of that.  
TESSA: Don't worry about it babe.
I'm sure Weis isn't any different
in a relationship.

[ LeeVigh sighs into the phone. ]

Just Say No

Morning, inside The Aisles.

[ Amber & Mark are talking
in his office. ]

AMBER: So today is the day.
MARK: Yup. TA is officially
non-smoking including all
employees on premises.
AMBER: Good thing I cut
back a few months ago.
Sucks for the every other
hour smokers though.
MARK: Yeah, I know.
Thanks for taking this
morning shift, by the way.
  Hahn had some emergency
appointment, he said.
AMBER: It's no problem.
I'm enjoying the change.

[ She sits down across
from Mark. ]

MARK: So, how are things
with Dyminic?  Ski told me
you made it official.
AMBER: Geez.  You gossip just
like a woman.

[ They both laugh. ]

AMBER: Anyway, they're great.
We've been living together
for months as friends anyway.
Now we just sleep in the 
same room.  
MARK: I see.

AMBER: Well, I have to run.
I'm meeting Karie & Sascha
at the cafe.
MARK: Cool, tell them I said
hi.

[ Amber leaves. ]


Meanwhile, at the Salon.

[ Acer & Hithe are walking
toward the manager's office. ]

ACE: You sent out the email
about the hiring fair we're
having, right?
HITHE: Of course.  I did it
from home last night.
ACE: Okay good.

[ They arrive in Ace's office
& he sits down, breathing
heavily. ]

HITHE: You alright, man?
ACE: I'm fine.  Just trying to
get a lot done right now
HITHE: I understand.  If you need
any extra help, let me know.

[ Hithe leaves & Karie enters. ]

KARIE: Me and Sascha are about
to leave.  Everything good?
ACE: Honestly, I feel like things
are piling up on me today.
KARIE: I'm sorry.  Why don't you
take a little break?
ACE: I would but I can't smoke
anywhere around here now.

KARIE: You're right.  I forgot.
How will you make it through
the day?  I mean, you can get
very stressed.
ACE: I'll be fine.  I have to be.
I don't wanna hold you up
though.  We can talk after
your lunch. 

[ He smiles while Karie leaves. ]


The Cafe, across from TA.

[ Amber, Karie, & Sascha are
sitting at an outdoor table. ]

AMBER: You're a little too silent.

Is there something you wanna
tell me?

[ Karie takes a gulp of her drink
& then looks up. ]

KARIE: We we're just wondering.
How old exactly is Dyminic?
AMBER: He just turned 40, why?

[ Karie makes a face. ]

AMBER: What? A lot of people
date older.
KARIE: It's 15 years though.  Just
saying.
SASCHA: Not to be cliche but age
is just a number.

AMBER: Yeah.  Mark is ten years
older than Ski. Monica is also
older than Kyle.  Just to name
a few, it's like a TA thing.

[ Amber laughs. ]

KARIE: Still, I don't know.
AMBER: You just have to see
how we are together. You'll
understand.
KARIE: Maybe.

[ They are interrupted by their
food being sat down. ]


Back at the Salon.

[ Acer is looking over a stack
of papers on his desk when
he notices it's still three 
hours before he is off. ]

ACE: God, this day is dragging.

[ There's a knock on the door. ]

ACE: Come in.
HITHE: Hey man.

ACE: How's Lorenzo? We're
not busy, are we?
HITHE: No he's fine.

I do need you to look over
this order for the added
chairs.

[ Acer just looks at him. ]

HITHE: When you get time.
No rush.

[ After Hithe leaves, Acer
is looking through the papers
still, getting frustrated.

Suddenly he let's out a yell, 
tossing each sheet one-by-one
 until his desk is cleared. ]

ACE: Screw this.

[ Grabbing his cigarettes from
inside his desk, he heads out
the back entrance.  Shutting
the door behind him. ]


Later that night.

[ Amber & Dyminic are
talking in her living room. ]

DYMINIC: How was your day
babe?
AMBER: It was okay.

[ She half smiles at him. ]

DYMINIC: Then why the frown?
AMBER: Just Karie didn't seem
to wild about the idea of us.
DYMINIC: Because of my age?
AMBER: Well, yeah.

DYMINIC: Oh well.  Not like it
matters.
AMBER: It does though.  She's one
of my good friends.  That's why I
want you to meet her some time.
DYMINIC: Sure, I love meeting
new people.

AMBER: Great.  Maybe will go
out this weekend.  To a movie
and dinner.
DYMINIC: Sounds good.  Now why
don't you come on over here?
I've been waiting for you to
walk through the door for hours.

[ Amber climbs up on top of him
& they start to kiss passionately. ]



Earlier, behind the Salon.


[ Acer is settled into his smoke,
looking around to make sure no
one else is in the parking lot.

Back inside the Aisles, Mark
is reading an email. ]

"Before you leave do another
security run.  Remember anyone
caught smoking on the premises
will be issued a final warning"

[ Looking over the cameras, Mark
gets to back parking lot.  He sees
someone down there.


Zooming in he realizes it's his
best friend Acer, putting out
his cigarette. ]

MARK: Oh no.
