SCENE 5 Page 1

INT. DAY. BROTHERS CAR. DRIVING DOWN SUNSET BLVD.

JIM
That was Skip Burdock man. The VP of Burdock studios! So he screwed us. Big deal. There’s a hundred other studios. But no. You’ve got to threaten his life. Do you think he doesn’t have friends? Do you think he doesn’t have power. He’s gonna get us black listed and we’re gonna wind up like him...

EXT. DAY. HOLLYWOOD  BLVD. LOOSER ACTORS  CAR.

(DENNIS WOODRFUFS  car pass in the opposite direction of the BROTHERS CAR. It’s a beat up station wagon with the actors name written all over it:  DENNIS WOODRUFF  looking for his big break. Fantastic Actor. Needs Agent. Call Now. 1-976-NEW-STAR. Blah. Blah. Blah. Recently he added a little trailer with the same sort of desperate advertising.)

INT. DAY. CAR. THE BROTHERS CAR.

JIM
...or her.

EXT. DAY. BILLBOARD  of ANGELINA.
(We see a billboard of ANGELINA in all her glory of plastic surgery, silicon, porno makeup, and Fredricks of Hollywood lingerie. She is the quintessential Hollywood Bimbo.)

INT. DAY. HOLLYWOOD BLVD.  THE BROTHERS CAR.

SNAKE
I saw her in person. And oh man. Jimbo. She was weathered. Road kill in make up. Yuck.

JIM
That, brother is what you’ve guaranteed us. Thanks.

(HENSON flips open SKIPS wallet. SNAKE takes out a wad of money and places it in HENSON’S free hand.)

SNAKE
Hmm. Tastes like twenty five hundred and sixty three dollars.

EVE
(V.O.)Twenty five? Whew. Sugar daddy carries a big wad o pocket change.

HENSON
A little more than half of what he owes us. See. Good things are happen.

JIM
I thought you weren’t going to pick pockets anymore.
