Kids Page #3

Casper and Telly are walking down the street. Casper is

eating a peach and drinking his 40oz. beer. Telly is also

drinking.

CASPER:

You know like in "The Wonder Twins"

they share everything.

TELLY:

The cartoon?

CASPER:

Yeah. "The Wonder Twins". You know.

(mimics the cartoon)

Activate in the form of, a glass of

water.

TELLY:

Yeah.

CASPER:

Well, those guys share everything,

right?

TELLY:

Right.

14.

CASPER:

And once I saw this episode where

they pretended they were each

other. Where they lived the other's

life for a day. You know those guys

share everything, right?

TELLY:

Right.

CASPER:

And it got me thinkin. How fun it

would be to share each other's

girl.

TELLY:

(laughing)

Yeah, that would be fun but I don't

like any of the girls you go out

with. Like that one girl with two

teeth and a clit ring.

.

CASPER:

No, I'm serious man. I'm dead ass.

Do you wanna try? We could be like

the f***in X-rated "Wonder Twins"!

The two of them start laughing and jumping on each other.

Telly spits out a mouthful of beer.

CASPER (cont’d)

(laughing)

Can you do it man?

TELLY:

(laughing)

Can I do it? I just brooke her

cherry. I imagine I can make her do

anything. Bark like a dog, jump

through a ring of fire.

Casper is jumping up and down on Telly's shoulder.

CASPER:

Oh man. I f***ing love this guy.

The two of them walk off laughing.

EXT. PAUL'S APARTMENT BUILDING - DAY

A medium sized apartment building on the Upper East Side.

Cars are speeding by the front of the building. Cabs drive by

and beep their horns.

15.

Telly and Casper are sitting on the front steps. Telly rings

one of the buttons. The bottom switchboard is plastered with

skateboarding stickers and "Legalize Marijuana" stickers. A

Vespa scooter is parked on the outside in front of the

building, it also has stickers on it.

Telly rings it again. It is a very hot day, both boys are

wiping sweat from their bodies.

PAUL:

(from box)

Hello?

TELLY:

It's me. Telly.

PAUL:

(from box)

Hello?

TELLY:

(loudly)

Paul it's Telly. Open up.

A buzz is heard.

There is a little girl sitting on the bottom step, playing

with a doll. Casper runs down and gives her a peach. Then he

runs back up.

Telly and Casper enter the building.

The little girl tosses the peach to the ground.

INT. PAUL'S APARTMENT BUILDING - DAY

There are about ten guys in the apartment. There is almost no

furniture, just two white couches and a few plants in the

corner. There is a big TV in the center of the floor. A

Nintendo with several wires is hooked up to it. There are

various games spread out. A couple of boys are huddled around

the game, as they watch the guy play, they breathe in the wipit's.

.

The boys are all young and spread out. There are people lying

on the couch, on the floor, on the phone, in the kitchen

smoking pot and doing wip-its. They are all colors and sizes.

Casper and Telly go to each person and greet them with a

handshake. Some people they hug. They say "Was up," to

everyone.

16.

They both sit down on the floor and continue to drink their

beers.

Paul sits down besides them.

PAUL:

What are you guys doing?

TELLY:

Nothing. We just wanted to come by

and see what you were up to.

PAUL:

You want a wip-it?

TELLY:

Nah.

CASPER:

Yeah.

Paul puts his hand on his big pocket and gives Casper a

cartridge. Casper breathes in the wip-it and then smiles

really big.

CASPER (cont’d)

I love these shits.

PAUL:

They're good for you. Vitamin C for

the new generation.

Paul hands Casper another cartridge.

CASPER:

That's why I like 'em. They wake my

brain up.

Casper does the wip-it.

STANLEY, a tall black kid with dreads, walks out of the

kitchen. He has a cordless phone in his hand. Casper

continues to do wip-it's. One after another.

TELLY:

So, how many people live here now?

PAUL:

I don't know, eight or nine.

TELLY:

Where does everyone sleep?

17.

PAUL:

Everywhere. F***in flophouse. We're

still short on the rent. If you

want, you and Casper can move in.

You guys can share the bathtub.

STANLEY:

Yo Telly. Jennie says what's up.

TELLY:

Jennie who?

STANLEY:

Jennie. You know.

CASPER:

That girl you boned last year.

Remember?

TELLY:

Man I haven't seen her in forever.

What the f***'s she up to?

INT. RUBY'S ROOM - DAY

Five girls are sitting in a small room. They are smoking.

They're all in a circle laughing. The girls are all good

friends. A few of them have rings in their lips and eyebrows.

A big dirty fish tank is on one of the bookshelves.

Ruby is a nice looking girl, age 17. She is Spanish, her hair

is slicked back, she chain-smokes.

Jennie is a 15 year old high school sophomore. She is white.

She is very pretty, with an uncommon touch of innocence about

her.

The next episode is going to jump-cut back and forth between

Paul's apartment and Rubby's room. These scenes should be

handheld.

.

Ruby hangs up the phone.

RUBY:

Telly says was up.

JENNIE:

I knew he wouldn't want to speak to

me. That dick.

RUBY:

You still mad at him?

18.

JENNIE:

Of course. How am I gonna forgive

him after what he did?!

SUSAN:

What did he do?

Ruby cuts of Jennie.

RUBY:

He stole her virginity. He took it

away and now it's gone forever.

Laughter.

JENNIE:

Yeah. But it's not even the fact

that he devirginized me. It's the

fact that after it was done he

never spoke to me again. He talked

all this bullshit and then just

broke out.

LINDA:

That's the kinda sh*t he's into.

Telly is known for that stuff. He

f***ed Amber the same way.

SUSAN:

And Susan too.

JENNIE:

But he was all like, Oh Jennie I

like you so much. Trust me you'll

love it, I'm not gonna use you. I

promise. He was poppin mad jazz.

More laughter from the group.

They all speak very quickly, almost to the point where you

can't understand them.

SUSAN:

First times are always wacked. Just

be glad you didn't lose your

virginity in the backseat of a

rental car.

RUBY:

That sh*t is nothin. I remember, I

had just turned 14. With this

f***in a**hole who was like 18. I

don't even remember his name.

(MORE)

19.

RUBY(cont'd)

I think it was John or Jake or

something. I remember he had a

brother named Lentil because I

would always joke and call him

Lentil Bean. This was away at like

sleep away camp with your friends

and sh*t.

JENNIE:

Oh yeah.

Laughter.

RUBY:

And we did it in the bush. Like

outside around midnight. I got

f***ing mosquito bits all over my

ass. And we thought everyone was

sleeping, but they obviously

weren't because everybody knew. And

it was out on the grass somewhere.

And it hurt like a motha, oh my god

the pain!

Laughter.

LINDA:

(cracking up)

That's the sh*t! That's the sh*t!

Linda slaps hands with Ruby.
