1. CASEY’S APARTMENT
A frustrated CASEY rushes
over to the front door and opens it finding his ex, CURT.
CASEY
What
are you doing here?
CURT
I
think that’s pretty obvious.
CASEY
I
never wanted to see you again.
CURT
I
don’t believe that.
CASEY
I
really don’t give a damn what you believe, Curt. I moved across country to get away from
you. Why did you follow me here?
CURT
Because I missed you. Let me in.
CASEY
Are
you kidding me? You’re not stepping foot
in my apartment. And I’m going to talk
to my super about building security.
CURT
I
would never hurt you, Case.
CASEY
Can
you honestly stand there and say that with a straight face? You’re really delusional, do you know that?
CURT
Sure,
we’ve had our ups and downs, but we can work it out.
CASEY
Ups and downs? You
need help, Curt. Professional
help. Go home to
CURT
I
don’t need a therapist. I just need you
to come back to me.
CASEY
That
is never going to happen. I’m disgusted
with myself for ever dating you in the first place.
CURT
Don’t
say that.
CASEY
It’s
not going to work this time, you know.
CURT
What
are you talking about?
CASEY
Every
time I’ve tried to get away from you, you track me down and lay it on real
thick, making it seem like you’re not such a bad guy. But I’m not falling for it this time. Just go before we have a very ugly scene
here.
CURT
I’m
not going to leave
CASEY
Well,
I can’t make you leave town, but I can certainly make sure you are nowhere near
me. I’ll get a restraining order against
you if I have to.
CURT
You
wouldn’t do that.
CASEY
Don’t
try me, Curt. Or you’ll be sorry.
Casey slams the door in his
face and then locks the door and the deadbolt.
2. MACK’S APARTMENT
ANGIE is sitting on the sofa
when MACK arrives home.
ANGIE
Mack,
you’re home early.
MACK
You’re
still here.
ANGIE
You
told me to make myself at home.
MACK
I
guess I did.
ANGIE
Did
you get things straightened out with your friend?
MACK
You
mean Sam?
ANGIE
Yes. I read that story in the paper again. How scandalous!
MACK
It
turned out to be even more shocking that I thought.
ANGIE
Oh
really? What did he say?
MACK
That’s
really what this is all about for you, isn’t it?
ANGIE
What
do you mean?
MACK
Finding out answers about Sam. This entire relationship has been about you
getting some type of revenge on him. Sam
told me everything.
3. CHANNEL 6 STUDIO
RICK is at the anchor desk
live on the 6 o’clock news.
RICK
And finally tonight, Channel 6 has received dozens
of calls from concerned viewers following a report published in the New York
Herald about our station manager, Sam Zegas (zay-gus). The story
included quotes from a teenage girl who claims she was brought into Zegas’s apartment and engaged in some pretty outlandish
sexual encounters that we will not recount on air. But the station wants you, our viewers, to
know that we are not taking this matter lightly. As of this evening, Zegas
has been suspended from his duties as station manager pending an investigation
into the matter. We won’t have any
further comment on the story until that investigation has completed. That will do it for the 6 o’clock news this
evening. I’ll be back at 11 tonight with
an update on the murder in
