Coffee Town Page #4

Synopsis: Will (Glenn Howerton) is a 30-something website manager who uses local café, Coffee Town, as his office. When the owners of the shop discuss plans to convert Coffee Town into a bar, Will enlists the help of his two best friends Chad and Gino (Steve Little and Ben Schwartz) to save his freeloading existence. In order to thwart the plans of Coffee Town's owners, the trio stages a robbery to create the illusion of an unsafe neighborhood not suitable for the proposed venue. Also standing in their way is Sam (Josh Groban), a disgruntled barista with delusions of grandeur-he wants to be a rock star-and Will's heartache over unrequited love for Becca (Adrianne Palicki).

time anything went my way?

- Well you got that awesome

shirt.

- The...

The shirt's for Becca.

-Oh.

Well, should you be wearing

it before you give it to her?

- Relax! Who cares man? Look

at this guy over here.

What is that a Dave Matthews

shirt?

- Hm... You think that means

he's gay, or just a douche?

- It's a tough call with, uh,

guys that like Dave Matthews.

I mean, is he just a guy that

likes to smoke weed

and listen to shitty music?

Cuz nobody seems to mind when

you do that to the Grateful

Dead,

or... Phish.

- Which makes it more about

Dave, who is both likable and

good-looking,

which pushes it right on

over...

... to the gay column.

- Oooh.

- You know what I was

thinking about last night?

When you think about it,

being straight is gay.

I mean, how gay is it being

attracted to a woman...

all pink... and perfumey.

You know, it's like "ooh, I

like girls.

I wanna rub up against

girls".

Fag.

But... If you wanna be

straight...

... shove it up another guy's

ass.

That's straight.

You see what I'm saying?

- Are you gay?

-No, no no no no. I'm just

saying,

what's straighter than having

sex with another guy?

- Everything.

- Literally everything.

- No, you guys... are

homophobes.

- Of straight people?

- Yeah, well I call them gay

people.

- I'm lost...

I don't know what you're...

- Are you enjoying that

coffee?

- Sam's newest tactic.

He does nothing to the

drink, but asks me how it is,

to make me question that

he might have.

- Medium drip... for Will.

- But the best retaliation

for psychological warfare

is more psychological

warfare.

It's delicious... thanks.

- Jesus f***ing Christ, Will!

C'mon, man!

- Sorry I thought that was a

coaster.

- No!

- That's not a coaster...

- This right here is my life,

okay?

This is like my little baby

child.

Not a f***in' coaster.

Phil!

Oh, c- Phil, no no no, that's

not a coaster, man.

- I gave them to everybody.

- You're a genius.

- God dammit. These are not

coasters, okay?

I don't care what the

f***in'--Jesus Christ- sign

says.

This is a- a CD that I

made.

Concrete Angst. Give it a

listen, you might like it.

Okay?

Let me know what you think.

- It's still free, right?

- Alright, time to go...

light up.

My boss saw me in here

yesterday,

it's gettin' too risky, not

smoking.

- Newports?

- ... Yeah, why? What's wrong

with Newports?

- ... Well...

... Nothin'.

- Menthol, too, huh?

- Yeah, I thought it would

make it taste better.

- Yeah... probably would.

That's a good choice.

- Okay... Time to kick the

not smoking habit.

I'm really gonna do it this

time.

- What's a non-racist way to

tell Chad that he's smoking...

- Cigarettes that mostly

black people smoke?

- Yes.

- Right... right.

There's no non-racist way to

say something racist, Will.

- Okay.

- Oh... Listen up.

I've got some bad news on the

whole Coffee Town front.

- What?

- Some exec called the

department yesterday

to check up on the crime

history of this place...

Check over any felony

reports, stuff like that.

- Why?

- Because whatever store they

choose,

they're gonna convert into

their flagship store.

They gotta make sure there's

absolutely no risk.

- Well, so what did they find

out?

- Nothing.

Place is clean.

The whole neighborhood is,

honestly.

- No! No no no!

What about the drive-by shooting

you were telling me about?

- ... I didn't file a report

on that.

- What do you mean you didn't

file a report?

Guy fired a gun out of a

moving car!

- Nobody got shot. I didn't

solve it. Seemed like a waste

of time.

- W- you can't just not file

reports, can you?

- I rarely file reports...

- Jesus Chr- You are the

worst cop in the world.

- Well f*** off, dude!

Honestly, I try my hardest,

and if you think about what I

do every day, it's insane.

- Aah!

- Aw, the safety's on!

Calm down!

The safety's on!

Oh god, the safety's off.

I gotta snap it in.

It's such an easy thing and I

forget to do it.

- This is unbelievable.

Seriously, you know, this is

what I get for being a good

guy.

It's what I get for opening

the doors for people

and living a moral life.

I get sh*t on.

Get- I get the only place

that feels like home

taken away from me.

Thanks world! Thanks a whole

f***ing lot!

- Are you talking to me?

- I was talking to the world!

- World, yeah... just, yep. I

get it now.

Becca's here.

- Okay... okay. If she's

gonna see you in that thing

you might as well get pumped

up. Get some veins showin',

alright?

- Oh make myself look bigger?

- Yes! Go!

- Okay.

Alright... Come on, baby.

What am I doin'? That's not

gonna do anything.

That's it. That's it.

- Aah! Ah!

Aagh!

Son of a... stop

spraying!

Aaah!

Come on! You- you kidding

me!?

Agh, come on.

Oh f***!

Ugh.

Jesus Christ.

... One paper...

- Oh!

- Oh god... really?

- Jesus, are you- are you

okay?

- Ey... yeah.

This... yeah, yeah. W- I was

just, um...

I should probably go... tell

em.

- Yeah, it's probably a-

probably a good idea.

- Uh, the pizza place has a

bathroom next door.

- No, it's fine, I just

wanted to wash my hands.

- Oh, cool. The sink still

works.

- Actually I do have to go...

I just said I didn't cuz I

don't like guys to know

that

pee comes out of me.

But it does... all the

time...

In fact, that's a lot of

information. I'm sorry.

- No, that's healthy. Pee

should always c- I'm totally

cool

with anything that c-...

that- that comes outta you.

- Okay, I just said pee,

let's not go crazy.

- I'm sorry... I just worked

out so my head get a little

blblblble.

- Yeah? You work out near

here?

- Uh, yeah, yeah, it's- it's

right on the corner actually.

Yeah, the... my gym.

- Wait... Isn't that a place

for toddlers?

- ... yep.

And that's where I work out.

- That's sweet.

- Here take this key, okay?

It's for the pizza place

bathroom.

They always keep theirs

locked to a deep-dish pan

cuz people keep stealing it.

- Like yourself.

- Yeah, I guess I'm one of

those people.

- Well, thanks. This is very

sweet.

- Any- any time, though.

- Alright...

- Okay.

See ya, have fun!

What does have fun mean?

- Brilliant... Okay?

Now, when she returns the

key... you make your move.

- Yep!

- Hey, you wanna hold my gun?

- I'm not gonna shoot her.

It's to create a subliminal

feeling of fear,

moisten her up a little bit.

- I'm good.

- Oh, are you?

Okay, so you're gonna stick

with the old soaked in toilet

water method?

- Yeah, I'm gonna ride that

one out.

- Okay, saddle up.

- What the hell?

Where's she goin'?

Is she stealing my key?

- I can go arrest her for it,

but she's gonna wanna f*** me

the second I slam her face on

that hood.

- Yeah. Who wouldn't?

She's stealing my stolen key!

- Definitely not a

poop-chipper.

- I don't know if it was

my fear of losing Coffee Town,

or finding out my dream

girl was a thief

with pee coming out of

her...

... or that my new roommate
