ACT 2
SCENE 8
INT. Inside Gale's room.
It's morning. The clock starts ringing.
Gale jumps from bed. He quickly washes and gets dressed, then he runs down the stairs.
Gale Hughes
Mom!
The TV is off.
Gale Hughes
Mom!
He goes to the fridge and sees a note. He reads the note.
Gale Hughes
Dear, mom will be gone for several months at her sister's. I know you will miss me and and nobody will take care of you like me, but you must learn to prepare everything you need by yourself. Kiss you. Take care...
Gale jumps up. He is so happy.
Gale Hughes
I'm so happy... fucking unbelievable...
The man prepares his food and sings a song.
After he finishes his breakfast he looks at his watch.
Gale Hughes
Oh, God... I have so much time. What to do with it?...
He thinks.
Gale Hughes
Today I will be the first one at work...
He takes his jacket and gets outside.
In front of his door, Robbie is waiting for him.
Robbie Robinson
(nervous)
Hi, Gale... I ran along two streets and came here. My car is broken.
Gale Hughes
Ok...
Robbie Robinson
(nervous)
And I see that yours is also broken...
Gale Hughes
Ok...
Robbie Robinson
(nervous)
And what are we going to do to get to work!? No car is good! We'll be late for at least three hours! And the boss will fire us...!
Gale is frightened. He doesn't know what happens to his friend.
Gale Hughes
(nervous)
We'll take that... cab...?
Robbie looks at that car. He gets calm.
Robbie Robinson
(calmer)
Gale... You're a genius...
The two men get into the cab and go to work.
