Alpha Dog Page #7

Synopsis: 1999, Claremont, California. Middle-class kids, in their 20s, talk trash, wave guns, hang out in a pack. Johnny Truelove, drug dealer and son of a underworld figure, threatens Jake Mazursky, an explosive head case who owes Johnny money; Jake responds by breaking into Johnny's house. On impulse, Johnny and a couple pals kidnap Jake's 15-year-old brother, Zach. Zach's okay with it, figuring his brother will pay the debt soon. Johnny assigns his buddy Frankie to be Zach's minder, and they develop a brotherly friendship. Zach parties with his captors as things begin to spin out of control. Group think, amorality, and fear of prison assert a hold on the pack. Is Zach in danger?

I, Susan, am a

whiny f***ing b*tch

and you, Frankie,

have it under control.

Right.

Worst comes to worst,

Let go of me!

This is my party,

Shut the f*** up.

Looks like I picked

Come on, b*tch.

How does that feel?

Think you're bad, huh?

SUSAN:
You're going

Give the little f***er

a kiss.

Come on, you're f***ing

Who's your f***ing daddy, huh?

- Show me one of your f***ing moves.

Well, hell, no, b*tch.

Hell f***ing no.

You sizing me up?

You sizing me?

That was f***ing awesome!

Tell your little freeloader

friends to slow
