his hand over his head to smooth out his waves and blows his
breath in his hand to make sure it’s fresh.  Then gets up
and walks toward the woman.

INT. STUDIO - DAY
Kelly and Nikki are naked and making out they entice Derrick
to remove his clothes and join them.
                    KELLY
          Derrick.... Derrick?
Derrick blinks as if he’s in a daydream.
                    DERRICK

Yeah?

                    KELLY
          Finished, want a drink?
INT. STUDIO - DAY
                    KELLY
          When I first saw you at the café
          you looked like you were searching
          for something.
                    DERRICK
          Searching for something?
She says this emphasizing the "something."
                    KELLY
          You know something.
                    DERRICK
          Oh, we’re all looking for
          something.

          How long did it take you to figure

that out?

                    DERRICK
          So you knew this stuff at an early

age I take it.

                    KELLY
          Men, I know more about lust than
          you could possibly ever imagine.
                    DERRICK
          Sounds interesting.
                    KELLY
          Oh it is we don’t know each other
          well enough to get into that.
                    DERRICK
          That’s my cue to leave.

KELLY

Why?

                    KELLY
          I’m not looking for a boyfriend.
Derrick is slightly confused.
                    DERRICK

Okay.

                    KELLY
          I ’m looking for a partner.
                    DERRICK
          Uh okay a partner?
                    KELLY
          I really don’t want to have anyone

to answer to.

                    KELLY
          I just want someone to f**k.
Derrick’s mouth drops open.
                    DERRICK
          Uh damn okay.

around his neck.

his neck.
                    DERRICK
          Is that a f*****g razor?
Derrick starts sweating and getting nervous.
                    DERRICK
          What are you doing?
                    KELLY

          An ancient Chinese secret.
                    KELLY

INT. STUDIO - NIGHT
Kelly puts the gag back in Derrick’s mouth then he screams
as Kelly cuts him then she removes the gag.

INT. STUDIO - NIGHT
Kelly unties Derrick, as soon as she does Derrick grabs the
razor and jumps on top of her causing Kelly to laugh at him.
                    DERRICK
          How do you like having a razor to
          your throat?
Kelly stretches her neck closer to the knife.

KELLY

Cut it.

                    DERRICK
          Threatening people... when they’re
          tied up... is not fun!
INT. STUDIO - NIGHT
Derrick leaves as Kelly watches.

INT. CAFÉ DAY

Kelly walks in with another girl they sit across from
Derrick.
Kelly stares at Derrick causing him to come over and sit
with her.
                    KELLY
          Long time no see.
Derrick snorts.
                    KELLY

          Normally I would go running to the
          hills but I saw sincerity in her
          eyes.
                    KELLY
          Want to go back to my place?
INT. STUDIO - EVENING
                    KELLY
          How’s that book going?
                    DERRICK
          I’ll finish sometime this year...
          or next the research is tedious,
          last night I listened to my
          favorite radio show, they talk
          about sex and relationships, they
          were talking about marriage.
                    KELLY
          How boring is the whole idea of

marriage?

                    KELLY
          I’d hate being tethered to

somebody.

                    DERRICK
          Yeah well they believe when you get
          married, men become ATM’s.  Sex
          gets boring and the wives forget
          about looking attractive.
                    KELLY
          Work takes a toll on the
          relationship, you settle into a
          routine... then you die.
                    DERRICK
          At least you won’t die alone.
                    DERRICK
          I was almost married a few years
back.
Why didn’t it work out?

          You didn’t really love her.
                    DERRICK
          Yes I did!
                    DERRICK
          And who are you to tell me about
          love miss I’ll never be tethered to

INT. STUDIO - EVENING
Derrick puts his hand on Kelly’s shoulder as the sun sets
outside the studio window.
                    KELLY
          I’m having a gang bang party
          tonight want to come?
                    KELLY
          It might be good or your research.
                    DERRICK
            Gang bang party?
Derrick laughs at his own joke.
                    DERRICK
          Hell yeah I want to cum!

                    DERRICK
          Sounds great!
                    RICHARD
          I look forward to working with you.
They shake hands.
INT. HILTON HOTEL - EVENING
The elevator doors open Derrick walks down the hallway to
suite 136 and knocks on the door.

Come in!

DERRICK SR.

          DERRICK
So whats the verdict son?
          DERRICK
I’m not going to dental school.
          DERRICK
I just got an offer from Wildfire
Publications for my book.
          DERRICK SR.
It’s an offer but it’s not a
guaranteed career.
          DERRICK
It’s an opportunity!
Derrick Sr.
What happens next?
          DERRICK SR.
What will you do next?
          DERRICK
Finish this book then write another

one.

          DERRICK SR.
Whatever it’s your life to waste!
          DERRICK
Why can’t you respect my decision?

          DERRICK SR.
Because it’s a stupid one.
          DERRICK
It’s like that huh?
          DERRICK SR.
Why are you doing this to me?
          DERRICK SR.
Why are you doing this to yourself?
          DERRICK SR.
Just like your brother.
          DERRICK
Writing isn’t something I can do as

a hobby.

          DERRICK
I need to put serious time into it.
          DERRICK SR.
Serious time into it?
          DERRICK SR.
You already put 15 years into it
come on it’s not a real job!
          DERRICK
It’s my life!
          DERRICK
Sorry you disapprove!
          DERRICK SR.
You have all the answers huh?
          DERRICK SR.
Alright I’m cutting you off!

DERRICK

What?

          DERRICK SR.
Don’t ask me for a damn thing ever

in life!

          DERRICK SR.
In time you’ll see that I was

right.

(CONTINUED)

                    DERRICK
          Bye dad I love you.
                    DERRICK SR.
          Uh huh don’t be expecting your
          mother’s care package either.
Derrick walks into the elevator and punches the wall and
cries.
                    DERRICK (V.O.)
          As if dad could ever tell mom what

to do.

INT. STUDIO - NIGHT
There is a knock on the door Kelly opens it. Derrick is
soaking and wet. Derrick walks in Kelly removes his coat
drops on her knees in front him and starts to unzip his
pants.
