REBECCA:
SHUT UP!
ENID:
She says she wants to MMPH!
Rebecca puts her hand over Enid's mouth.
CUT TO:
A PUSH SWEEPER, SWEEPING THE CARPET.
ANGLE ON:
OLD WOMAN slowly sweeping.WE FOLLOW HER BACK TO: Enid, Rebecca & Josh. They're now
eating:
ten minutes have passed, it's 12:45.ENID:
So Josh... Becky and I are trying to
figure out what makes you tick.
Tell us about your political beliefs.
REBECCA laughs.
JOSH:
Yeah, right.
ENID:
No, I'm serious. Give us your whole
basic philosophy in a nutshell.
REBECCA:
Oh my God, look, that's got to be
him!
A GUY enters.
ENID:
Is he wearing a green cardigan?
REBECCA:
What exactly is a cardigan anyway?
ENID:
That's not him... Jesus, stop freaking
me out.
JOSH:
In answer to your question, I suppose
I endorse policies that are opposed
to stupidity and violence and cruelty
in any form...
ENID:
I figured something like that...
REBECCA:
Oh my God!
They see a somewhat funny-looking guy in his late 30's,
wearing a green cardigan, SEYMOUR, enter. Enid and Rebecca
hunch down in their seats.
ENID:
It's obviously him!
REBECCA:
I can't believe it!
Seymour sits down and looks around. Weird Al brings a menu.
ANOTHER ANGLE ON: WEIRD AL bringing his milkshake. Ten more
minutes have passed, it's 12:55.
REBECCA:
What's going on now? What's he doing?
ENID:
Oh my god, he just ordered a giant
glass of milk!
JOSH:
(bursting her bubble)
It's a vanilla milkshake.
Fifteen more minutes have passed - it's 1:10 PM. Seymour
looks around, still hopeful. His date is now TEN MINUTES
LATE.
REBECCA:
What's he doing now?
ENID:
He's still just sitting there. God,
this is totally unbearable!
JOSH:
I agree.
REBECCA:
I wish I could see him.
ENID:
Go ahead and look, but don't make it
too obvious...
Rebecca turns around and pretends to look past Seymour.
It's now 1:
30 PM. His date is 30 MINUTES LATE. Seymour getsup and walks sadly towards the cashier (Weird Al).
REBECCA:
Do you think he knows?
ENID:
I dunno...
They watch him leave. Enid goes up to pay the bill while
Josh and Rebecca go outside.
ENID:
Hey Weird Al, did that guy say
anything to you before he left?
AL:
Not a thing.
Enid goes back to the table to leave a tip, two dollars. Al
passes behind her.
AL:
(cheerfully
professional despite
her abuse)
Thank you and come again.
Enid hesitates, overcome with guilt. She glances back at Al,
then digs every penny out of her pocket (about seven dollars
in coins and wadded up bills) and adds it to his tip.
The trio drive in silence. Suddenly, an extra-wide pick-up
vrooms past Josh, cutting off the driver (SEYMOUR) next to
him. SEYMOUR bobs violently as he screams silent obscenities.
JOSH:
Jesus, look at this guy.
ENID:
Oh my God, that's HIM!
REBECCA:
Are you sure?
ENID:
Totally! Look!
ANGLE ON:
SEYMOUR really having a fit now. Once it's out ofhis system, he reverts to an amiable poker-face.
ENID:
He's insane!
REBECCA:
JOSH:
Forget it.
ENID:
Come on, Josh... don't you want to
see where he lives?
JOSH:
No.
ENID:
But this guy is like a one-of-kind,
rare butterfly, and we have to follow
him back to his natural habitat...
JOSH:
You need counseling.
EXT. SEYMOUR'S APARTMENT - DAY
Several minutes have passed. Seymour parks.
REBECCA:
neighborhood!
