Cut Shoot Kill Page #5

---

There's also a cameo

You all enjoy.

Cutter.

By Soundie.

- Woo!

- Woo.

You know I didn't

mean nothing by it, right?

Don't get all f***ing weepy

on me, I gotta go to work.

I'm not gonna be here

when you get back.

Where the f*** are you gonna go?

Something's changed,

don't you think?

Can you feel it? Everyone's

acting really strange.

We have been

in the woods a while.

Don't you think it's weird

that the actors

just sort of disappear

when they're done shooting?

That's what happens

on film sets.

When you're done

they ship you out

so the producers...

don't have to pay extra days.

Why?

What did you think was going on?

I don't know.

But I'm worried about Candice.

She wouldn't have left

without saying goodbye to me.

Did you talk to her at all?

She left me a note.

You two hooked up?

You didn't know?

I guess you weren't as close

as you thought.

I guess not.

I told you

about these film sets.

I told you not to get attached.

I know, I know,

you're protecting yourself.

She's a grown-up.

We both knew what we wanted

from each other.

Contrary to what

you might think of me,

I'm not an a**hole.

She's a nice girl.

She's one of these girls

that lives in a bubble,

in this dream.

She's like a puppy who's trying

to get at a bone

and she keeps

getting kicked back.

But no matter how many times

she gets kicked back...

...she keeps getting up

with this sweet smile...

...and asks for more.

This world can be tough

on people like that, you know?

Soundie!

Soundie!

Soundie!

I don't get you.

If you think

something's weird or bad...

...then why don't you just quit?

I'm an actress.

Oh, Jesus.

The show must go on, right?

Besides,

I could just be paranoid.

Yep.

No! No!

F***.

F***in' shoot me.

F***in' shoot me.

Hm?

See?

It's never about the victim.

IBall, IBall,

are you going to town?

Oh... please, Miss Brooks,

Jason's thinking of giving me

a promotion

so I-I can't really risk

f***in' up like that now.

I understand.

Okay.

I'm worried about them.

There's one path

leading from the camp

and this is where it goes.

And what do you think

happened to 'em?

Maybe they got lost.

Cut.

Serena, that was great.

You're wrapped for the night.

We just need Blake

for a couple more shots.

Thanks, everybody.

Hey, did you know Nicole, IBall?

I-I knew her a little, you know,

just from hanging around

with these guys.

Did you ever see any of her

last film, The Secret Admirer?

I-I've seen a few bits of it.

It looked good, but...

Well, hey-hey-hey...

...but what?

Uh, well, uh, Mr. Shipman

wrote the script on that

and I-I-I don't think Alabama

thought too much of it.

There was some disagreement

between them

that I wasn't privy to.

They still get angry about it

when they get drunk.

But let's go to your room,

Miss Brooks.

Oh, I almost forgot, um,

Alabama says that he

needs Cutter on set.

Oh, okay.

Uh, uh, I'll go get him.

Where they at?

I'll take you.

Hello?

- Actors are ready.

- Alabama, look at me, come on, please.

Soundie, you're in frame.

Alabama.

What's that 150

doing there, Shooter?

Come on Shooter,

we gotta get this shot.

Just get that light

out of there.

- Is camera rolling?

- Alabama, look at me!

- It's been running.

- Look at me.

Come on, f***er, look at me!

Soundie, get out of the frame.

Alabama! I'm sorry!

Jesus Christ!

- Action.

- No I-No.

Walter don't do-you

come near me with that thing,

I f***ing swear! F*** off!

Say the f***ing lines!

F*** you!

Say the f***ing lines!

I didn't do anything!

I wouldn't--

Al, I love you, come on.

You're breaking my heart.

Okay, I'll say the lines.

Get that f***er back to one.

Get back to one, Walter.

Action.

I'll give you anything

if you untie me.

I already have what I need.

Not me. Not me for real.

Oh, I don't want your love.

I love you, Alabama.

Sorry I f***ed up your film.

Nicole!

Sh*t, f*** no.

F*** no.

No!

Oh!

No! No!

Oh, my God.

Nicole.

I want Blake.

I wan-I want-

I want to see-I want to see...

Hello?

Hello?

Oh, uh, can I help you?

Who are you?

I'm a friend of Serena Brooks.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah, uh, do you know

where I can find her?

She's on set.

She's shooting up by the lake.

You her boyfriend?

That's right.

- Brian?

- Uh-huh.

Yeah, she told me about you.

Yeah, she uh,

invited me up, so...

Oh really?

I wonder how she did that.

So, um, can I--

Can I go to where

she's shooting or is-

Oh you know no

one is allowed on set

because the director

doesn't like distractions.

Right.

But I just made

a fresh pot of coffee.

Would you like to sit down

and have a cup?

They'll be done in just

a short while, I'm sure.

Hey you want to take

a look at this next scene?

What do you mean?

Well, have you ever

done a fight scene before?

I've done a few, but uh,

Alabama usually directs that,

so maybe go

ask him your questions.

Well, why don't

we just go through

and see what we

can come up with.

All right.

Now I just gotta go out to the

fridge and get some milk, okay?

Oh, please. Yeah. Thank you.

All right.

F***!

Bless your heart.

If you're coming up like this,

right,

and you wanna come--

- Like this?

Yeah, and then you wanna

come down like that...

- All right.

- ...so I can get some separation, right?

And I'll have you there,

I figure I'll get a hit in there

and I'll just bring this right

around, how does that work?

If you bring that knife

that close to me another day,

I'll cut your balls off.

- Yeah, we'll see about that.

- What the hell is this?

- Yeah?

- We're fine. Cool.

Trying to get a handle

on this next scene

and wonder boy Walter over here

don't know dick

about stage fighting.

- Oh, f*** you, you're just--

- Oh, f*** you.

Walter can handle himself

just fine.

Look, I know

you're cutting corners

in order to complete

your picture,

but I'm noticing a severe lack

of respect

for the safety of these actors.

All right.

Blake, why don't you take 10?

Cutter?

What the hell you doing here?

IBall said you wanted to see me.

I didn't say-- IBall!

- Action.

- Please don't.

No. No!

What the f***, Walter?

I thought so.

Uh.

You won't do anything to me

without Alabama here.

Try that again and I will.

He's on his way.

Alabama ain't gonna be too happy

when he finds out

you've been watching this.

Aah! Aah!

Now I'm gonna have to cut you.

Hey.

They're gonna kill us.

We get outta here.

We gotta find some car keys,

or some bus keys,

or whatever the f***.

They all panicked when you

sent Cutter up to set

and they're all looking for you

and we're f***ed.

There's nothing here.

Wait, you came back for me?

I told you I wasn't an a**hole.

Come on. This way.

Hey...

Aren't you supposed to be

on set?

Uh...

Hey Blake, don't f*** around

with that.

Are there blanks in here?

Are these real shells?

Why would I put real shells

in there?

That's what I was wondering.

- I just don't know.

- Cowboy--

Ugh!

F***! Come on!
