The Stripper!?A Screenplay by James LarkBartender: The same? Me: Yeah ma, amaretto sour and a shot. Bartender: So where's your cousin? I haven't seen him in awhile. Me: (laughing)...Never have I. Bartender: (giggling)...Ok I'll leave that one alone. If you need anything holla. Me: I'm good, going to finish these and take my a*s home. Stripper: So you must come in here all the time. Dj: ( We have Candy coming to the main stage. Let's give it up for Candy.) Me: (laughing)...Na ma' it ain't even like that. I rest right around the corner. Occasionally I stop by after work for a drink. Stripper: So your married and you stop in a strip club every night for drinks? Me: Damn ma', (laughing)...you trying to read me. I'm separated, just haven't taken the ring of yet. And do you not know what occasionally means. Stripper: Occasionally, now and then; sometimes..(giggling) Yes, pretty and smart. Me: Ok you got that off. DJ: (Deja to the side stage) Deja: Hold that thought I'll be right back. Time to get this over with... Me: Huh? Deja: First night.

Me: Tee, you know I'm not Cap's keeper and you shouldn't be asking about him. That s**t with your baby's dad was fucked up. Tee: Ain't my fault, that n***a didn't wanna be bothered with his son until I started f*****g with Cap. Me: Yeah, but with the way Cap runs his mouth, you know what he do. And Cap's f*****g crazy. Tee: Don't you mean what "Y'all" do...(giggling).. Me: (fake laughing)... Whatever ma', go get that money. Here, little man needs some new Jordan's. Tee: (lauhing)... Trying to dismiss me. Just tell Cap you saw me and I said, "whenever." Me: I got you ma'....Candy, a shot and a glass of water. Candy: Here you go hun. Me: So what's good with shorty on stage. Candy: Who Deja?..(laughing)...I kind of knew you would like her. She's good people, same drama you have. Me: Nobody has my drama...(laughing) DJ: (Tianna to the side stage) Candy: Please, drama is drama..(giggling)...holla if you need anything else. Dj: (give it up for Deja, coming to the stage we have the lovely Tianna) Deja: I see you're still here..(grinning) Me: Yeah, I've been holding this thought for like ten minutes. Deja: (laughing)...So your a comedian also. Me: Something like that, I'm multi-talented and good at everything I do. Deja: (smiling)... Everything? Me:Everything!! Deja: Do chick actually fall for that? Me: What? (laughing)...I'm dead serious. Besides you are... Deja: Oh, am I? Me: Yep, you watched me talk to Tee while you where dancing. Deja: I was looking at the clock. Me: Whatever, it's cool to like me. I'm a likable person. Deja: Ahhh..the Dj's giving me that look...I need to go make my rounds. Me: Go do your thing ma'. I'm starting to feel these drinks anyway. Here this is for the conversation. Deja: We didn't talk this long... Dj: ( Passion to the main stage.)

Deja: So that's it, your not going to even ask for my number? Me: I guess it worked. Deja: Whatever, bye! Me: I'm joking, here take my number.(laughing)...Only use it in case of an emergency. Deja: Ok, only in emergency. Me: Have a goodnight ma'. Deja: You also Mr. Maj...(giggling)...And it's Dawn. My name is Dawn. Me: I know..
