He's Way More Famous Than You Page #5

Synopsis: When once-up-and-coming indie film starlet Halley Feiffer loses her boyfriend, her agent and her career in one fell swoop she finally realizes that something in her life has got to change... she has to become WAY MORE FAMOUS! Armed with a stolen script and two pitchers of sangria, Halley enlists the help of her brother Ryan and his boyfriend to make her own movie, starring herself (of course) as herself, and any A-list celebrity she can land along the way. From seducing the Karate Kid to kidnapping Hollywood's biggest name in comedy, Halley will stop at nothing to get her movie made even it means hurting the only people who truly care about her.

So please respect my anonymity...

Okay.

Do you want a 24 hour coin?

Are they free?

- Oh yeah.

Then definitely.

Passing it really slowly, thank you.

Oh my God.

Natasha Lyonne?

Twin Choice breakout star from

The Slums of Beverly Hills?

That's why it's anonymous.

I'm so sorry.

I will totally respect your anonymity.

Above your American rights.

Alright, why don't we close

out with a serenity prayer?

Pass those back.

I'll do whatever you say.

I'm happy to hear about your dog.

You got a sponsor?

What? No, I never had sex with a woman.

Sorry, I was just enchanted by...

Your volumenece eyelashes

and impressive resume.

What did you ask me?

- Do you have a sponsor?

No, I'm not really an alcoholic.

You look like an alcoholic.

Listen, if you want somebody to

talk to. To answer your questions...

Take you through the steps...

I'd be happy to work with you.

Really?

- Yeah.

If you just want to go

grab a drink or something...

Hit me up... Just kidding...

I don't drink anymore.

Anyway, here's my number.

- Is this your agent's number?

That's my cellphone number.

Think you can smoke in here?

Bye guys!

Keep coming back!

I'm talking to you.

Oh my God Ryan, this 12 steps thing...

Is so awesome.

I totally got Natasha Lyonne

from But I Met Cheerleader.

To be my sponsor.

I'm gonna go to every meeting in town...

To find my entire cast. Bye.

Oh God, no.

Oh my Buddha!

THis isn't happening.

Ben! Ben!

Big hug, big hug!

Ben, remember me from Broadway?

Hai Haley...

It's Halley, but you can

call me whatever you want.

How are you? You look so good.

You look so tan.

I heard you have a house there.

Was it nice? Did you go snorkeling?

Anyway, how are you? What are you doing?

Are you on your way to a

meeting? Like a big movie meeting?

What are you meeting about? Greenberg 2?

Do you need someone to fill

in for the Gerwitz girl?

She's so hot right now.

I'm obviously so jealous of her, but...

Just trying to be nice.

Can you go?

Yeah.

- Bye...

Bye, wait, wait...

Real quick.

- What?

It means a lot that

you're talking to me...

Because I really thought you

would never speak to me again...

After I asked you to throw

your hotdog down my hall ways.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

I can't do this, you're

too upsetting to me.

Oh, muscles...

Oh, it hurts a little bit...

But in a good way.

Anyway, I just want to say thank

you so much for funding my film...

We're gonna kick ass at Sand Dunes.

What film?

What film? Hello... The Untitled Greenlight

Such resourcefulness...

Such resolved...

Does not exist in your dojo.

Taste like fairy dew.

I'm totally gonna ask her to

make a special cameo appereance.

Well, snap snap, girlfriend.
