Bachelor Party Page #11

RICK:

Now, I want you to lie down and drift

off to slumberland.

He slowly lowers her to her pillow and tucks the covers in

around her.

RICK:

(continuing)

Close your eyes... that's it...

There's nothing to worry about... I

love you... I'm a great guy...

(yawning)

In two days you're gonna be Mrs.

Great Guy.

He yawns again and turns off the light on the night table.

There is a beat of silence in the dark. We PUSH IN ON their

faces, which are faintly illuminated by a street light outside

the open window. Both of them have their eyes wide open as

they stare at the ceiling in fearful anticipation of the

next day.

INT. AIRPORT - DAY

The guys (except Gary) are walking through the busy airport.

RYKO:

You sure Gary's got this whole party

deal together?

CHULO:

Yeah, man, he's got us a great room

at the hotel and lots of chicks.

RYKO:

I hope so. Hundred bucks apiece is a

lot of dinero.

CHULO:

What time are we supposed to get to

the hotel?

O'NEILL

Don't worry, Chulo, the party's not

gonna start without you. We got plenty

of time.

STAN:

I can't wait to see old Larry...

It's been five years.

RICK:

At least.

ANGLE - THE EXIT RAMP

People are streaming out of the plane. Finally the last person

exits.

O'NEILL

Where the hell is he?

RICK:

Knowing Larry, he probably missed

the flight.

STAN:

There he is... Hey, Larry!

LARRY:

(talking very slowly)

Guys... guys... guys...

RICK:

'Ludes... 'ludes... 'ludes.

Larry floats toward them and stops in front of them. He stares

at them strangely, looking from face to face.

LARRY:

God, I love you guys.

To the guys' surprise, he goes around hugging each one of

them.

LARRY:

(continuing)

This makes me so happy.

They start walking toward the baggage claim area.

O'NEILL

So, Larry, how have you been?

LARRY:

Just in love with everybody. It's

really a beautiful planet. I love

you, Rick. I love you guys. I love

everybody.

RICK:

So how's your wife?

Larry stops walking and immediately breaks down.

LARRY:

I hate her. I hate her guts, the

b*tch.

O'NEILL

Larry, you and your wife got problems?

LARRY:

I don't want to talk about it. I

love you guys. I love my friends.

Larry reaches into his pocket, takes out a Quaalude.

LARRY:

(continuing)

You want to share it?

RICK:

Naw, two on a Quaalude... bad luck.

LARRY:

Right.

He pops it in his mouth.

EXT. TERMINAL

The guys exit the Baggage Area. Rick is pushing Larry who is

sprawled out on top of his bags in a luggage cart.

LARRY:

My marriage is the worst. All crap.

A big pile of sh*t.

RICK:

Maybe your marriage should lay off

grains for a while.

LARRY:

She hates me. It's over. You'll see,

as soon as you get married, everything

changes. You sure you want to go

through with it, man?

RICK:

(his interest peaked)

What do you mean, it changes?

Before Larry can answer they reach the bus where Debbie is

waiting for them.

DEBBIE:

(hugging Larry)

Larry, how are you?

LARRY:

Hi, Debbie, congratulations. Hey, do

you know where there's a pharmacy

around here so I can get a

prescription filled?

RICK:

Come on, get him on the bus.

As a couple of the guys pick Larry up and carry him into the

bus we

CUT TO:

INT. BUS - DUSK

Rick is driving the bus with Debbie sitting next to him in

the driver's seat. The guys sit in the row of seats behind

them.

RICK:

Well... twenty-four more hours to go

and tonight we'll share with our

friends and loved ones the joys of

those last moments of singleness.
