Mark’s Party

INT. GLEASON HOUSE – NIGHT TIME [Andrew makes his way to the kitchen and finds Mark and Dave.]

MARK
Holy shit!

ANDREW
What's up?

MARK
How you doing, man?

ANDREW
How you doing, man?

DAVE
What's up?

ANDREW
Hey, how you doing? Good to see you.

MARK
Get this guy a beer. This guy does not wait for a beer. He's a movie star. Like, uh, Jersey's De Niro and shit.

DRUNK
Largeman, man, what are you doing home?

ANDREW
I, uh...

MARK
Press junket.

DRUNK
That's phat, yo. Fuck, yeah! Serpico and shit. "Attica!"

MARK
Shut the fuck up, man. You like that? Like, uh, "press junket"? That's improv, bitch. You can use it. Right? Okay. Let me show you something.

INT. GLEASON HOUSE GOLF ROOM

JESSE
Largeman! Oh, whoa! What's going on, man? How you been?

JESSE
Hey!

ANDREW
Jess. How are you, brother? How's it going, man? I haven't seen you in so long. I heard you're kicking ass.

JESSE
Oh, um, basically the man bought my silent Velcro patent.

ANDREW
What?

JESSE
I developed this little item. It's just like Velcro, but it doesn't make that…the Velcro noise.

ANDREW
So how much did they buy it for?

JESSE
A lot, man.

ANDREW
Wow. So wh-what are you doing with yourself?

JESSE
Um, nothing. Nothing. I've never been so bored in my whole life. Yeah. First month I went out. I bought a whole bunch of shit. But, y...Nothing.

[Andrew, Mark, and Jesse walk over and take a seat on the couch.]

JESSE
Someone got a joint for me?

MARK
Here you go.

ANDREW
Oh. No thanks, man.

MARK
Really? I thought you were a big movie star and shit.

ANDREW
Nah.

JESSE
Well, then here. Eat this. [Hands Andrew an ecstasy pill.] Welcome home.

ANDREW
[Takes the pill.] I guess I'll see you guys later.

DANA
Should we play a game?

KELLY
Let's play "spin the bottle."

ANDREW
I'm not playing "spin the bottle." How old are we? Or more importantly, how old are they?

JESSE
Oh, they're all legal. I think.

KELLY
Well, we just ate all this fucking "X," so what the hell else are we supposed to do?

JESSE
Girl has a point.

KELLY
Fucking right.

UNKNOWN
I'm in!

[Zero 7's "In The Waiting Line" plays as he zone's out and everyone moves is a fast forward motion around him.]

ALL
[Music cuts. Right before he falls asleep, he comes back to reality.] Hey! Large! Large!

JESSE
Largeman, this is Dana.

DANA
Hi.

ANDREW
Hi. Who's up? [Sees the bottle is pointed by him.]

[Dana walks over to Largeman, straddles him and kisses, him intimately.]

ALL
Whoo!

JESSE
This is gonna be a good night.

[Music plays until the scene fades.]
