Judas Kiss Page #2

I wonder what

you're looking at...

what you're you thinking.

Sometimes I spend my whole day

framing people up.

My whole life is cinematic.

I even masturbate cinematically.

Wow, you've got an exciting

career ahead of you.

Really?

Oh, yeah, you're gonna make

a killing in porn.

- Mr. Wells!

- I'm just saying.

And scene.

Thank you, Tommy.

And now I really have to insist

on that poo break.

Thank you, Mr. Garlington,

Ms. Lynn...

Zach.

Come on, Ralph.

You look like you need

to take a sh*t.

I'm your 3:
30.

Well, this is awkward.

Uh, nothing personal,

but it looks like

I have to care about

who you are now.

Look, you and I have never met.

Got that?

Never met.

If you mean we've never been

properly introduced,

then sure.

Never met.

My name is Danny.

- Danny Reyes.

- What?

So sorry to keep

you waiting, Danny.

- Human needs, you know.

- Of course.

I trust Zach was good company?

Oh, he certainly was,

Ms. Lynn.

Uh, how come I didn't see

this kid's file?

Did you take my copy

to the bathroom with you?

What? I washed my hands.

Okay, fine, look.

Danny, let's get started,

shall we?

Why don't you tell us what

inspired this wonderful film.

Wait a minute.

You're Danny Reyes.

Yeah.

Where did you grow up?

I went to Lockton High School.

Lockton?

Zach, are you all right?

What's the name of his film

in this competition?

Judas Kiss.

Indeed.

Danny, why don't you tell us

what inspired you

to tackle this controversial

subject in the short form?

Your father.

No, my...

My film is fictional.

Some... Somebody put you

up to this.

Mrs. Blossom?

Topher?

Look, Mr. Wells, if this

is about last night...

Last night?

You can't be Danny Reyes.

I am Danny Reyes.

For quite a few reasons,

that's impossible.

- Zach.

- Mr. Wells!

Where are you going?

To find Mrs. Blossom.

This is totally f***ed up!

I think I need another poo.

Stop!

What is going on here?

That can't be Danny Reyes.

Of course it is.

He was on our schedule.

He wasn't on mine.

What is up with you

and this kid?

We have to interview him, Zach.

Just gimme a minute, okay?

Listen, I'll go reschedule

with Mrs. Blossom,

and then we'll go to coffee,

okay?

Just wait for me here, okay?

Call Topher.

Calling Topher.

Topher, this better not be one

of your little practical jokes.

There's a kid here

claiming to be Danny Reyes.

Danny Reyes, from Lockton.

Ring any bells?

Oh, and I slept with him.

Did you plan that too,

you goddamn pimp?

I'll call you back.

You're... Welds, right?

You gave me directions.

That's why I'm here.

Gimme a cigarette.

We need to talk.

The sweaty taste

Upon your lips

My hands are moving

Towards your hips

About to show me

Where this feeling

Will take us

This night will make us

Am I too common

For your love

Too mainstream

Not quite strong enough

Maybe I'm too naive or

Tell me

Do you like it rough?

And, cut!

That'll be all for today.

Great job, everybody.

I have an interview.

All right, that is a wrap

for the day.

Everybody, please check the

board for your next call times.

I'm never having sex again.

Are you still hung up on cute

older dude from last night?

You don't understand, okay?

I am so completely, totally,

all-encompassingly f***ed.

You need to chill.

And there's no such word

as "encompassingly. "

Yeah, well, a new word

is required for how much

I just f***ed my life.

Spill.

I slept with

one of the judges.

At the interview?

No!

Cute older dude, he...

Turned out to be

one of the judges.

Wow.

You have the weirdest mojo ever.

I hope I'm not interrupting.

No, no, you're right on time.

Okay, drama queen, focus.

Let's get this interview done,

and then we'll

sort out your issues.

Right.

Right, sorry, Abs.

Focus.

Hi, I'm Abbey Park.

Chris Wachowsky.

We've got your chair set up

right over here.

Who's your partner?

Slave driver, you mean.

Uh, that's Danny-

Danny Reyes.

You made Judas Kiss.

Yeah, that's me.

No one's ever

gotten their

freshman film

into finals before.

Lucky, I guess.

Is there any chance that

I could get a look at it

before the screening

this weekend?

Really? You'd, uh...

You'd want to see it?

The entire film school is

insanely jealous of you.

We were all jealous of you

when you won

the film festival last year.

Hello?

Remember? Interview?

I'm all set up here.

Okay.

Chris Wachowsky, winner of last

year's Keystone Film Festival,

how has life changed

since winning?

You gotta make things

right with the kid.

He's who he says he is.

I'm sorry, sir, but you

can't possibly know that.

He's Danny Reyes.

- He can't be.

- He is.

I'm Danny Reyes!

You're Zachary Wells.

Danny Reyes went to

school here 15 years ago.

That was me.

What happened to him?

I...

He's gone.

Just like that?

You think changing your name

added I.Q. Points?

How many times

you've done rehab now?

You're getting

a second chance, "Zachary. "

Okay, we're done here.

This is the key to your future.

Change his past...

Change your future.

I'll see you around.

You know, most people have

a follow-up question when I say

I plan on bringing bloody films

back into fashion.

Right.

So, what, are you gonna go down

to L.A. and do the whole

starving artist thing

for a while?

Lame!

No one tries to become

a starving artist, rasshol.

How about asking

a non-bullshit question?

Abbey you can't say...

- Feent, bleep me out. Whatev...

- Abbey...

Ask him a real f***ing question,

you muss.

Feent.

Are you afraid of the future?

Wow...

That is a real f***ing question.

Am I afraid of the future?

Yeah.

Terrified.

I mean, it's the future.

Who wouldn't be?

But it's a fair fight.

I know I have

what it takes to win.

Okay, uh, I think we got

what we need here.

Abbey, could you, uh,

take down that boom?

Slave driver?

Hey, what's up?

What the hell are you

doing in my studio?

No harm done.

Danny, this is Shane.

Shane Lyons.

Oh...

Hi.

I didn't realize

you were still here.

I'm meeting my parents

for coffee.

The film festival is their

big hoohah for the year,

so I'm at their

beck and call all week.

Who are your friends, C.W.?

Uh, Danny Reyes.

This is Abbey...

Park.

Danny Reyes and Abbey...

Park.

Huh.

Danny Reyes, you have a film

at the film festival, right?

This is where my family's

insane film festival party

will be tomorrow night...

And you're coming.

If I'm forced to endure my

parents' stay on campus

all week, I'm entitled

to bring extra guests.

Yeah, party.

Awesome, great.

Yeah, and, uh,

bring little missy with you.

C.W., you're invited too,

of course.

Sure...

Thanks.

How did you get in here?

Don't you think

we need to talk?

Feent.

I blew the R.A. once.

He owed me for

not telling his girlfriend.

Keystone University,

where blowj*bs are the

key to my dorm room.

Funny.

I just want

to talk to you

about that whole

interview thing.

You see, I really need

this scholarship.

Why you more than

anyone else?
