Judas Kiss Page #6

Synopsis: Failed filmmaker Zachary Wells is convinced by his best friend and hotshot director Topher into replacing him as a judge in their film school's annual festival. Zach's one-night stand with a student backfires when that student walks into an interview the next morning calling himself Danny Reyes, the name Zach went by when he attended the school. And Danny's film, "Judas Kiss," is a finalist in the competition Zach is judging. Zach's film, also "Judas Kiss," won the festival years before. As Zach scrambles for answers, a mysterious, chain-smoking campus tour guide, counsels him: "Change the kid's past, change your future." But how? Zach comes to believe he can mend his life by disqualifying Danny from competition, putting him on a different path than Zach followed. But will Zach's plan work?

What's it gonna be, Mrs. B.?

Roll the film.

Hey, uh...

I'm kinda freaking out.

Mind if I just hang back here

for a minute?

Uh... Yeah, sure.

Where the hell have you been?

Why is Judas Kiss playing?

With me.

Where are you taking me?

Just come on.

Eat your dinner.

I'm not hungry.

You have to eat.

- But I'm not hungry.

- Eat!

You had to let them show

that piece of sh*t?

You.

Only you could've

told Mrs. Blossom.

Get off me!

I asked you.

Don't I mean anything to you?

You haven't meant

anything to me

since you let Mom die in pain.

I'm not one of

your super-villains

in your comic books, son.

I don't have

that kind of power.

You betrayed her.

Your mom wasn't the only one

in pain, Danny.

Yeah, then what about me, Dad?

Huh?

I was there for you.

I've been there for you forever.

With you, always,

since I was a kid.

Back then was different,

for you and me both.

Your mom's first cancer...

Whatever happened to

"Everything I do,

I do because I love you,

Danny boy"?

Huh?

Daddy?

Are you okay, Daddy?

Daddy?

Daddy! Wake up!

You know, I lied for you...

Told Mom you had to

work late after school.

I thought I was just keeping

your secrets, like always.

But you actually had a new one,

didn't you?

One you kept from me.

Daddy, you're bleeding!

No.

No, no.

No, Jude.

You'll help your old dad.

Yes, Daddy.

Whatever you say.

And you know everything I do

is because I love you, right?

Yes, Daddy.

Mom cried all the time,

and you weren't there!

But, you know, I was okay...

'cause I thought that

everything Dad did

was because he loves me...

wants me.

I...

I didn't wanna lie to you.

You don't have

to speak to lie, Dad.

We all have things

we don't say.

You're no different, Danny.

I was nothing to you.

You're overreacting.

Then why don't you

take me down, Daddy,

just like always?

I'm done with you!

Do whatever you want...

Away from me.

Dad.

Leave.

What happened to you?

Difference of opinion.

This is certainly our most

unorthodox screening.

Though Judas Kiss is

no longer eligible to win,

I do want to recognize

the efforts of its director.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Daniel Reyes Jr.

Thank you for

watching my film.

I know what I did

was wrong, but...

I guess I just wanted

everyone to know.

Thanks.

Now, let's proceed

to tonight's awards.

So this was all about you?

C.W., little missy.

Well, you managed

to pull it off, Danny.

You lose and you still win.

Thanks.

Well, you could've thought

to thank your producer.

You weren't gonna

say anything.

I'm sorry,

I just couldn't help it.

Jeez, Abs, I'm sor-

Whatevs.

You two enjoy

your victory celebration.

Well, um, why don't

you two join us?

He owns you now.

Don't drag us into it.

Hey, come along with us, C.W.

Don't let him f*** up.

Don't f*** up.

Let's go, come on.

You know, you're not

supposed to be smokin' in here.

Mmm.

Well, I've been

thinking about quitting.

Maybe you're not such

a mus after all.

I don't know.

I don't think I can

take a punch.

You remember,

before Mom's first cancer,

back when Dad was happy?

We used to go

camping all the time.

I used to think I could just

reach up and touch that moon.

We don't get along too well,

do we?

No.

I'm scared.

You know, I'm coming around

to the notion that

roller coasters might

be able to run in reverse.

What the hell

are you talking about?

I mean that we can move in

whatever direction we want-

change things, patch things

that we f***ed up,

maybe even afford the luxury

of a dream or two.

Are you ever gonna

make sense, dude?

One day... dude.

I certainly hope that wasn't

a Judas Kiss.

You and I have had

one too many betrayals.

You know, I'm never gonna

forget you.

Yes, you will.

So, time dude.

Do we ever fall in love?

I think you know enough

about the future already.

Come on.

Just give me a hint.

He's...

Into bloody films.

Bloody films

and Bolex cameras?

So, what?

We live happily ever after?

No.

No?

You won't be able

to get rid of him,

and you'll spend

the next 15 years

waiting for him

to return your phone calls.

Now... Get outta here.

Key to the future.

Lost and in between

The way you thought it was

And thought it seemed

And everyone has changed

B*tch.

Christopher Wachowsky...

How was Spain?

Bloody crazy, dude.

Between that

and all the time zones,

I couldn't return your calls.

I'm so sorry.

I ain't mad at you.

How could you be?

You love me, Danny.

Only a little.

So explain your

weird-ass messages,

because I had nothing

to do with you

sleeping with yourself

as a kid.

Let's just say

I was recently inspired.

We need to try

something unexpected.

Listen now

Listen now

If you want another chance

You'll take it now

Oh, oh

When you crash

Crash, crash

If it goes down tonight

It's the messes

That you make

The hearts

That you will break

When you crash

Crash, crash

Oh, don't go another day

It's time to walk away

When you crash

Crash, crash

Oh, you'll crash

Crash, crash

One step forward

Three steps back

The rain is comin'

Fallin' fast

Don't give in to misery

When happiness

Can set you free

One step forward

Three steps back

The rain is comin'

Fallin' fast

Don't give in to misery

When happiness

Can set you free

You manipulative

son of a b*tch!

You were behind all of this.

A thousand ways

A thousand words

Still nothin' to say

A thousand ways

A thousand words

Still nothin' to say

With every day

And every night

Shadows shift

They take flight

With every day

And every night

Shadows shift

If I fall

If I fall

If I fall again

Will you be

Here with me

If I fall again?

Many times

I've tried so hard

But it's never enough

Many times

I've tried so hard

But it's never enough

A siren blares

But no one cares

They just look

They just stare

A siren blares

And no one cares

They just look

If I fall

If I fall

If I fall again

Will you be

Here with me

If I fall again?

Bruises and scars

They go so far

But I want to know

Bruises and scars

They go so far

But I want to know

If I fall

If I fall

If I fall again

Will you be

Here with me

If I fall again?

If I fall again?

A thousand ways

A thousand words

Still nothin' to say

A thousand ways

A thousand words

Still nothin'

To say.
