Cut Shoot Kill Page #4

that I do that.

What do people want more than

anything else on this Earth,

more than even sex?

They want to survive.

Haven't you ever

had to defend yourself?

I'm not sure I'm ready

to share that.

Is that Nicole from your films?

Yeah, that's our Nicole.

You remind me of her.

I mean she wasn't

the actor you are,

she wasn't trained

or nothing, but uh...

...she was fierce like you.

Always up for a challenge.

In the real world,

she was a high school dropout

who worked at a strip club...

...but in our movies...

she was a star.

What's the other one?

"My secret admirer."

That was the last movie

we worked on,

The Secret Admirer.

Died before we could finish it.

You loved her.

I don't like to talk about that.

Cowboy says the-the stuff

is ready for Miss Brooks

to do the mold of her head.

You don't get claustrophobic,

do you?

Is that a warning?

I'm gonna leave some space

under your nose

so you can breathe, but you

won't be able to breathe

out of your mouth.

I've done it a ton of times.

It's fine.

- Cowboy, something's wrong.

- She needs to stop moving.

Yeah, get her out of there.

Hold still sweetie,

now we're gonna cut you out.

Hold on, all right?

- Alabama, it's not set yet.

If we cut her out she's just gonna

have to do it all over again.

Serena, listen,

if I cut you out of there

right now

we're just gonna have

to do this again.

Can you hold on

for just a minute longer?

You were asking me

about Nicole before.

Well, all right.

The first time I met Nicole

was at the P*ssy Cat

Topless Bar and Lounge.

I was there with my girlfriend

she just walks right up to me and

starts shaking her wares in my face.

And my girlfriend,

she wasn't such a good sport.

She tossed her Malibu and Coke

in Nicole's face,

and before you could blink,

Nicole, she picked that glass up

and she slammed it down

on the back of her hand.

There was blood everywhere,

it was a f***ing sh*t show.

And that was Nicole Healy.

You know,

she had a snake inside of her

always ready to strike if you

came up on her the wrong way.

All right.

We're gonna

cut you out now, okay?

Have you out in just a second.

- You hear that?

- Just keep breathin'.

- You're doing real nice.

Here we go Serena,

all right, on three, ready?

One, two, and...

There she is.

I'm sorry, can we cut?

Keep rollin'.

I'm just having kind of

a hard time about this.

What's wrong?

Can I talk to you for a minute?

What's wrong, Candice?

That was so great.

Thank you. I'm just-

I'm really uncomfortable about

taking my bra off in this scene.

We talked about this in New York,

you said you were fine with it.

I know, I guess

I thought I could.

You like what I'm doing, right?

I mean, is my acting okay?

Your acting is great.

Then why do I have to

take my bra off?

In this scene

you're taking a shower.

It would be kinda stupid if you

had your bra on in the shower.

Couldn't we shoot

from the shoulders up?

You signed a contract, right?

In the contract it says

you take your bra off.

It explicitly says--

- I'm dealing with this.

Maybe if I could speak to my agent

he could straighten this out.

We're set up to shoot now.

Everyone is waiting for you

to do what you told us you

would have no problem doing.

I know, I'm sorry, everyone.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Yeah.

I heard about what you did.

I am so proud of you.

I feel really bad about it.

Everything was going so well

and I screwed it all up.

No, no, no, no, no,

don't say that, okay?

You shouldn't do anything

that you don't want to do.

They all hate me now.

They're just mad

they didn't get their way.

They said they're

gonna drive me into town

so I could call my agent.

That's perfect.

He's the one who should be

dealing with this, not you.

You shouldn't have to

fight with these guys.

You're so good to me.

I hope we can be friends

when we get back to the city.

Definitely.

Yeah, I don't know man.

Hold on, shut the f*** up

for a second.

You said you were gonna give me

a ride into town tonight?

It's getting late.

- Oh right.

Here.

Are you serious?

I can't spare anyone right now.

You guys are too much.

Help me!

Help!

Help! Oh, thank God.

Thank God.

Thank God.

There's someone in the trunk!

Okay ma'am, calm down,

calm down.

Call an ambulance!

- Dispatch, this is unit 114.

- Come on.

Looks like we're gonna need

a meat wagon out on highway 34,

two clicks north

of Station Road.

Go.

Holy sh*t.

Ma'am.

I need you to put your hands

on the roof of the car.

What?

No I'm-I'm just working

on a film shoot.

Ma'am, please put your hands on

the hood of the car right now.

It isn't my car!

I was just driving it

and it broke down!

Put your hands on the car

right now!

Well hey there, cutie!

Looks like you're havin'

a little police trouble.

But you-you didn't think

he was gonna help you, did you?

Police ain't good for nothing.

They're just out

to cut your tail!

Oh, my God.

I heard someone was

having a little problem

doing what they said

they were gonna do.

Let's see if you can

follow my instructions

a little better, huh?

See, I caught your friend there

peekin' on you

when you was in the shower.

And I kept him alive

'cause he's a sicko.

You don't want to end up

like him, do you?

So, why don't you just...

...shoot yourself with that...

...so I don't have to cut you

with this.

What is it?

My little recipe.

You won't feel a thing.

But this...

Well this, you will.

No!

I'll do it.

Yeah?

Well go on.

You and me gonna be friends

for a long... long time.

Come on.

Let go of me!

Let go of me!

Let go of me!

- Soundie! Sh*t!

- You f***ing bastards!

Sh*t.

What the f***, Walter?

What the f*** man?

What the f***, indeed.

Who would've thought

that little British guy

could pull off

a stunt like that.

It was a great performance.

He even kept his American accent

the whole time.

He was a real professional.

I've known Soundie

since first grade.

And you too, right Alabama?

Sh*t, we all knew him...

forever.

You remember

the time the cops...

...took our film away and...

...Soundie broke into the

station and stole it back?

He was a ballsy little f***,

that's for sure.

To Soundie.

He died doing what he loved.

I seen him with his dick

in the mouth of one lady,

and his balls in the ass

of another, but...

...I never saw him happier

than when he had

a pair of cans on his head

and a boom in his hands.

Hey, hey y'all, uh,

Soundie,

our dear friend and sound man,

he's had to return home

on a family emergency.

How'd he find out

about it, carrier pigeon?

Look.

I know condition's been rough,

but we're making something

real special here.

I thought in honor of Soundie

we would, uh,

show one of our shorts.

We made this in a cold April

down in Sawahanna,

South Carolina.

It stars the great Nicole Healy

in one of her later roles.

Did she refuse

to take her clothes off too?

She was a stripper, so no,

that was never an issue.
