INT. WAREHOUSE - EARLY MORNING

CAMERA (STEADICAM) holds on a man in a suit, sitting behind
a desk, on the phone: BARRY EGAN (Adam Sandler)

			BARRY
	...yes I'm still on hold...

			OPERATOR
	And what was this?

			BARRY
	I'm looking at your advertisement
	for the airline promotion and
	giveaway?

			OPERATOR
	This is "Fly With Us?"

			BARRY
	It's hard to understand because it
	says in addition to but I can't
	exactly understand in addition to
	what because there's actually
	nothing to add it too...

			OPERATOR
	I think that's a type-o then, that
	would be a mistake.

			BARRY
	So, just to clarify, I'm sorry: Ten
	purchases of any of your Healthy
	Choice products equals five hundred
	miles and then with the coupon the
	same purchases would value one
	thousand miles --

			OPERATOR
	That's it.

			BARRY
	Do you realize that the monetary
	value of this promotion and the
	prize is potentially worth more
	than the purchases?

			OPERATOR
	I don't know...I mean: I don't know.

OC DISTANT SOUND OF A CAR SKIDDING TO A STOP, SOME VAGUE,
DISTANT SCREAMING IS HEARD...THEN SILENCE. Barry hears this,
gets distracted, then back to the phone call;

			BARRY
	Can I call you back if I have any
	further questions...? Can I get
	your extension?

			OPERATOR
	It's extension 215 if you want to
	try me back.

			BARRY
	Ok. Thank you.

He hangs up the phone and walks through his warehouse. It's
fairly non-descript place, boxing materials, etc. Products
seem to be mainly silly novelties (pens that light up, key
chains, novelty toilet plungers, etc)

He lifts a LOADING DOOR and LIGHT POURS INSIDE, WASHES OUT
THE FRAME....he's silhouette....CAMERA follows him
out...stays overexposed and over his shoulder as he looks
down towards the street.....

...his business is situated at the end of a common driveway,
shared with a few other nondescript places and an Auto
mechanic....distant SOUND of a car SPEEDING and SKIDDING....

....hold, then:

....a JEEP CHEROKEE comes FLIPPING into FRAME, far off at
the mouth of the alley, on the street. The JEEP ends up
landing RIGHT SIDE UP....HOLD....

.....Barry flinches a little, stares.....the JEEP sits idle
for a moment....then it drives off....then:

A speeding, small TOYOTA comes into view at the mouth of the
alley, screeching to a halt. The passenger side door opens
and a small, wooden HARMONIUM (like a portable organ) is
placed on the ground. The TOYOTA speeds away.....

....a moment or two later another NON-DESCRIPT CAR flies
past very fast....

BEAT. Barry squints, looks at the small HARMONIUM sitting
alone in the middle of the street.

He hesitates, looks around, holds, then walks back inside
his warehouse.

					CUT TO:

INT. BARRY'S WAREHOUSE - THAT MOMENT

Barry on the phone again;

			BARRY
	....I'm not exactly sure what that
	means...

			VOICE
	If they break or something. What is
	it, plastic?

			BARRY
	It's a plastic, yeah.

			VOICE
	Right. Alright, lemme call you
	first thing tomorrow, I'm gonna run
	the numbers, see what's what and
	I'll give you a call back --

			BARRY
	Did you have my home phone number?

			VOICE
	For what?

			BARRY
	If you wanted to call me back I
	could...

			VOICE
	I'm fine, I have your work number.

			BARRY
	Ok...because of the time difference
	if you needed to call me early?

			VOICE
	It's fine. I can just get you at
	your office.

			BARRY
	Ok.

			VOICE
	Ok, bye, bye.

			BARRY
	Bye.

He hangs up the phone and walks outside, CAMERA follows him
again, out to the alley, over his shoulder......he looks
down the length of the alley at the Harmonium. HOLD, THEN:

A small FORD ESCORT pulls into the driveway, around the
Harmonium, parks......a young woman named LENA LEONARD
(Emily Watson) exits the car and starts to walk down the
length of the alley towards him.....CAMERA stays over his
shoulder and turns into a profile 2-shot;

			LENA
	Hi. Do you work at the mechanic?

			BARRY
	No.

			LENA
	They're not open yet?

			BARRY
	They don't get opened until eight.

BEAT. Barry gently steps back and out of the FRAME.

			LENA
	Is it ok if I leave my car you think?

			BARRY
	I don't know.

			LENA
	I thought they opened at seven.
		(beat)
	If I left my car would it be ok?

			BARRY
	I don't know.

			LENA
	Do you know them.

			BARRY
	Not very well.

			LENA
	Can I ask you, can I trust to leave
	my keys with you and give them to
	you so that when they get here you
	could give them to them?
			BARRY
	Ok.

			LENA
	You think it's ok where I left it,
	right there?

			BARRY
	I think that'll be fine.

Lena hands him her keys, he steps back into FRAME, THEN:

			LENA
	There's a piano in the street.

			BARRY
	Yeah.

BEAT.

			LENA
	Ok. Maybe I'll see you later. Thank
	you for your help.

			BARRY
	Thank you.

			LENA
	Maybe I'll see you later, when I
	pick up my car?

			BARRY
	Ok.

She walks away....he starts back inside the warehouse,
hesitates, watches her go.....right before she reaches the
end of the alley, she glances back quickly, over her
shoulder....he dodges inside real quick.....

HOLD THE EMPTY FRAME......then he steps back out.....looks
off at the Harmonium.....and the empty street.....he looks
around some more....then he makes the long walk down the
street.

ON THE STREET.
Barry stares at the Harmonium a little bit, looks around,
both ways, then casually picks it up and walks back towards
his business.....

He brings it into his office and places it on his desk. He
tries a few keys....pressing down...there's no sound.

He presses his hand on the foot pedal and presses a key and
a small note is made.....BEAT....he does it again....and
holds the note.....

					CUT TO BLACK.

INT. WAREHOUSE - OFFICE - EARLY MORNING

Barry enters the warehouse with harmonium and runs into his
office. He places it on the desk and hits a key: no sound.

Barry goes to his knees and unlatched the bellows. He pumps
the bellow, reaches up, presses a note, and another...then
stands up into CU. and presses the 5 note
melody......SUDDENLY: THE SOUND OF THE POD BAY DOOR SLIDING....

....Barry spins around, scared shitless, sees: LANCE, who
enters the warehouse, Barry rushes out to greet him;

			LANCE
	Hey, good morning, Barry.

			BARRY
	Hey...Lance....can I.....

			LANCE
	You ok?

			BARRY
	Yes I'm fine.

			LANCE
	Why you wearin' a suit?

			BARRY
	Um....I bought one. I thought maybe
	it would be nice to get dressed for
	work, can I show you something?

			LANCE
	Yeah.....you got here early huh?

			BARRY
	....yes.....

They enter into the office, Lance sees the harmonium;

			LANCE
	What is this?

			BARRY
	I don't know. I think it's a
	piano....a small piano.

			LANCE
	That's not a piano.....I have a
	piano at home.....where'd you get it?

Lance walks around behind the harmonium....leaving Barry
alone....towards the warehouse......he starts to back up a
little.....

			BARRY
	Well.....it was dropped on the
	street.....

Sal, Ernesto and Rico all start to come into work behind
Barry.....he sees them: CAMERA pushes in on Barry....

			LANCE (OC)
	Why is it here? Barry....Barry?

			BARRY
	...it just....I don't know....I
	don't know.

LAND IN CU. ON BARRY. CUT TO BLACK.

TITLE CARD Punch-drunk Love Movie

(maybe color blooms/overture here)

INT. WAREHOUSE/MAIN AREA - DAY

CAMERA pushes in slow as Barry and Lance talk to TWO
CUSTOMERS about the plungers which are on display in front
of them. They speak all over each other doing shop talk, etc;

			CUSTOMER
	You do guaranteed sale? etc.

			BARRY
	We back our plungers 100% and we do
	ask for a 30 to 60 day display on
	the floor.....

In the b.g., RICO over the laud speaker says:

			RICO
	Barry, your sister's on line one.

Barry doesn't move....

			BARRY
	Yes.....we do ask for....30 to 60
	days....

			CUSTOMER
	I think you have a call?

Rico turns around, without loudspeaker;

			RICO
	Barry, your sister is on line one.

They look at him a moment....

			BARRY
	I'm just gonna grab this call real
	quick?

ANGLE, REVERSE. Barry turns and heads for the phone nearby
at Rico's station;

			BARRY
		(into phone)
	.....This is Barry.

			RHONDA
	Hey it's me, it's Rhonda. Are you
	coming to the party tonight?

			BARRY
	Hi, Rhonda, yes I am.

			RHONDA
	Bye.

She hangs up.

			BARRY
	Ok. Yes I'll see you tonight.

Barry takes a few steps back to the Customers:

			BARRY
	Sorry about that: One thing I
	wanted to point out, Dave, is that
	we've just received a large order
	from the Rio Hotel and Casino in
	Las Vegas where we're going to be
	supplying their hotel rooms with
	the dice and money plunger, so
	these babies are really moving well
	right now...

			RICO
		(over loudspeaker)
	Barry, your sister's on line two.
	Barry, your sister's on line two.

Barry tries again to ignore it....

			BARRY
	With the Aqua Blast Whales and
	Speed Boats we're gonna ask for a
	display at eye level for the little
	kids.....

			RICO
	Barry --

			BARRY
	-- excuse me.

Barry walks back to the phone;

			BARRY
	This is Barry.

			KAREN
	Hey it's me, what are you doing?

			BARRY
	Hello, Karen. I'm just working.

			KAREN
	Yeah but what are you doing?

			BARRY
	I'm just working....I have some
	customers here.....

			KAREN
	So you can't talk to me?

			BARRY
	I have a few people here, I can't
	really chat right now.

			KAREN
	"chat?" Did you just say "chat?"

			BARRY
	Well, I can't talk though --

			KAREN
	You just fucking said "chat," that
	is so -- what are you now? "chat."
	I'm just calling to make sure you
	show up at this party tonight.

			BARRY
	Yes, I'll be there.

			KAREN
	Fine. You get back to chatting with
	your precious customers.

			BARRY
	Ok, bye-bye.

Barry snaps out of this, turns, claps his hands in confidence
and walks back to the customers and says:

			BARRY
	Sorry about that.

			CUSTOMER
	I didn't know you had a sister?

			BARRY
	.....Well yes I do....
		(beat)
	But one more thing I wanted to tell
	you guys about the new plungers is
	that we're making the handles now
	in a non-breakable material
	called.....

He takes one of the plungers and to demonstrate smacks it on
the table....it SMASHES and rice falls out everywhere....

			BARRY
	Ok...this is one of the old ones, I
	think. Lance do we have any new
	plungers around?

Lance moves to get a new plunger....

			BARRY
	That was a little embarrassing and
	that was one of the old handles so
	let me get a new one to show you --

			RICO
		(loudspeaker)
	Barry, your sister is on line one.

Barry holds, then;

			CUSTOMER
	How many sisters do you have?

			BARRY
	....I have seven.

			CUSTOMER #2
	Holy shit. You have seven sisters?

			BARRY
	They're calling because we're
	having a party tonight for my
	sister and the they're just
	calling....can you hang on for just
	two more minutes....?

Barry walks this time into his office......CAMERA tracks
with Barry to his office, seeing him try and shake this
off.....He EXITS FRAME.

					CUT TO:

INT. WAREHOUSE - OFFICE - THAT MOMENT

Barry enters, takes a quick moment to size up the
harmonium.....He picks up the phone and through the

	Hey, how are you?
			BARRY
	I'm fine, hi, how are you?

			ELIZABETH
	I'm just stopping by to say hello.

			BARRY
	Hello.

			ELIZABETH
	So you're coming tonight, right?

			BARRY
	Yes, indeed, yes I am.

			ELIZABETH
	There's this girl, this friend of
	mine from work that I think is
	really cute and really cool and I
	want you to meet her so I was
	thinking about bringing her to the
	party tonight.

			BARRY
	Oh yeah no I don't want to do that.

			ELIZABETH
	Why?

			BARRY
	Well I don't want to do something
	like that.

			ELIZABETH
	She's my friend and you should meet
	her. You'd like her.

			BARRY
	Yeah, but please don't do that.

			ELIZABETH
	I'm not really asking you, I'm
	telling you.

			BARRY
	Yeah but please don't do that:
	everyone would be looking at me.

			ELIZABETH
	It's a free country, we can look at
	you if we want to.

			BARRY
	Yes but I get tense and I feel like
	I can't be myself if that happens.

			ELIZABETH
	That's your fault not mine.

			BARRY
	I don't think I'm going to the party.

			ELIZABETH
	So it's ok if I bring her.

			BARRY
	Please don't.

			ELIZABETH
	She's really cute and she's really
	nice.

			BARRY
	...please, I just don't want it....

			ELIZABETH
	....wait a minute: why is this
	about you now? Why is it always
	about you?

			BARRY
	Yeah, no, it's not, it's just --

			ELIZABETH
	I'm trying to be your friend.

			BARRY
	I know.

			ELIZABETH
	I'm trying to get you a girlfriend.

			BARRY
	Well, yeah, thank you, but --

			ELIZABETH
	-- but since you're not going I
	guess none of this matters and I'll
	bring her anyway.

BEAT. HOLD. She stares him down.

					CUT TO:

INT. SUSAN'S HOUSE - NIGHT

The door opens slowly and Barry peers his head around and
into the house very cautiously, CAMERA PUSHES IN and PANS
slightly LEFT to reveal: THE KITCHEN.

Barry's SEVEN SISTERS are all there, preparing dinner and
talking away....they turn and see him;

			SUSAN
	There he is! Do you remember when
	we used to call you gay and you'd
	get all mad?

			KATHLEEN
	-- we were calling you gay and you
	got so mad that you threw a hammer
	through the sliding glass door --
	do you remember?

			BARRY
	I don't really remember that.

			KATHLEEN
	Yes you do. We were calling you Gay
	Boy and you got so mad....

			BARRY
	Yes, yes, right.

			SUSAN
	We're trying to remember why you
	had the hammer in the first place?

			BARRY
	...um.....

			KATHLEEN
	The hammer that you threw....why
	did you have it?

			SUSAN
	You don't remember -- you had the
	hammer and you threw it -- ?

			BARRY
	I remember, yes.....

			SUSAN
	Why did you have it?

Another sister, RHONDA, enters from behind, Barry jumps, says:

			RHONDA
	He was building a ramp for the dog.

			KATHLEEN
	He was making a ramp for the dog!
	That's right!

			SUSAN
	That's right....ramp for the
	dog..... And you just threw the
	hammer.

			BARRY
		(to Rhonda)
	Happy Birthday, Rhonda.

			RHONDA
	Thank you. Thank you so much, Barry.

She gives him a very quick hug and kiss and sets the cake
next to a bigger, cooler looking cake.

Mia approaches holding a baby.....Barry tries to say hello
to the baby, but Mia slowly turns the baby out of Barry's
grasp....making herself the center of his attention;

KITCHEN/DINING ROOM, THAT MOMENT

Barry gets slightly turned around trying to reach the
baby...and ends up in a doorway that leads to the dining
room, revealing himself to: ELIZABETH, KAREN, NICOLE AND
ANNA. There are also: THREE BROTHER IN LAW'S (WALTER, LARRY
AND STEVE)

			ELIZABETH
	Hey....I was just telling everyone
	about how I was gonna bring this
	girl for you but you wouldn't let
	me do it.

			BARRY
	Hello everyone.

KAREN steps up and greets him;

			KAREN
	Did you think that we'd all be
	looking at you?

			BARRY
	No, no, no.

			KAREN
	Well it's just not true. We
	wouldn't be looking at you -- why
	are you wearing this suit? Did you
	say hello to your brother in law's?

			STEVE/LARRY
	Hi, Barry. How ya doin? Good, good.

			KAREN
	Say hello to them, that's right,
	good, good. Ok. Come on, we're
	gonna eat now.....let's go.....

Barry shakes hands and hello's with the brother in law's.
He's left alone for a moment with Walter and Elizabeth;

			WALTER
	How you doin' Barry?

			BARRY
	Hi Walter.

			WALTER
	How's business?

			BARRY
	Business is very food, thanks.
			ELIZABETH
	What's very food?

			BARRY
	What?

			ELIZABETH
	You just said very food.

			BARRY
	Did I say that?

			WALTER
	Yeah.

			BARRY
	That was weird. I meant good.

			WALTER
	Maybe you said that because you're
	hungry.....

Walter moves to help everyone...they're moving to set the
table......

CAMERA CLOSES IN ON BARRY AND ELIZABETH alone for a beat:

			ELIZABETH
	You're lucky. She couldn't come
	anyway --

			BARRY
	Well I'm glad you didn't, thank you.

			ELIZABETH
	She couldn't come I said. Are you
	nervous?

			BARRY
	No.

			ELIZABETH
	You look nervous.

			BARRY
	I'm not, I'm very happy.

RHONDA passes;

			RHONDA
	Come on homo-boy, we're eating now.

Elizabeth leaves, HOLD ON BARRY.

CAMERA PUSHES IN TOWARDS EVERYONE SETTING THE
TABLE.....CAMERA ROTATES AROUND.....everyone is still
chatting a bit about "Barry gay boy," and "the girl that was
gonna be here that Barry wouldn't allow."

ANGLE, REVERSE. Barry is standing in front of the floor to
ceiling sliding glass doors.....in an INSTANT, he TURNS AND
THROWS HIS FIST STRAIGHT THROUGH THREE OF THEM, THEY
SHATTER....he turns back, they are all staring straight at
him in silence. HOLD, THEN:

In unison they all go ape shit:

			GROUP
	WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM.
	GODDAMNIT BARRY. YOU FUCKIN' MANIAC.
	ETC. ETC.

					CUT TO:

INT. SUSAN'S HOUSE - HALLWAY - LATER

It's later and WALTER and BARRY walk down a small hall and
into a kids room. They're OC for a few moments as the CAMERA
slowly pushes in and towards the room. Following sotto;

			WALTER
	What's up?

			BARRY
	Well I'm sorry. Before...

			WALTER
	Mhm.

			BARRY
	And I'm sorry that I did that.

			WALTER
	It's alright.

			BARRY
	I wanted to ask you because you're
	a doctor, right?

			WALTER
	Yeah.

			BARRY
	I don't like the way I am sometimes.
		(beat)
	Can you help me?
			WALTER
	Barry, I'm a dentist, what kind of
	help do you think I can give you?

			BARRY
	I know that. Maybe you know other
	doctors?

			WALTER
	Like a psychiatrist?

			BARRY
	I don't have anyone to talk to
	things about and I understand it's
	confidential with a doctor - I'm
	embarrassed about that and I don't
	want my sisters to know?

			WALTER
	You want a number for a
	psychiatrist, I can get you one,
	that's not a problem. but what
	exactly is wrong?

			BARRY
	I don't know if there's anything
	wrong with me because I don't know
	how other people are.....Sometimes
	I cry a lot.....for no reason.

Barry starts to cry. Walter just stares at his. HOLD.

Barry stops, recuperates, then leaves.....as he does;

			BARRY
	Please don't tell my sisters.

					CUT TO:

INT. BARRY'S APARTMENT - LATER

CU. HEALTHY CHOICE COUPON.
Barry's scissors cut out a coupon and reveal an image
beneath in another section of the newspaper...it's the sexy
LEG of a woman....

BARRY very casually pushes some papers aside and looks at
the ad...

HOLD ON HIS FACE. He looks....then:

MOMENTS LATER, BARRY ON THE PHONE.

He listens;

			OPERATOR GIRL (OC)
	Hi, this is Janice The Operator,
	who's this?

			BARRY
	Hello, how are you?

			OPERATOR GIRL (OC)
	Hi, is this your first time calling?

Barry is dressed for work in another suit now. He grabs some

			SEXY VOICE
	I was wondering if it's better to
	ask your girlfriend for the money?
	It could be really easy. I mean, I

INT. BARRY'S WORK/WAREHOUSE - MORNING/LATER

CAMERA (HAND HELD) behind Barry, as he walks through the
warehouse, greets the boys, says hello to Lance, etc. Lance,
taking his cue from Barry, is a bit more dressed up today....

			LANCE
	Good morning, Barry....

			BARRY
	Hi, Lance.

			LANCE
	What's with all this pudding, what
	is this?

CAMERA sees that all the pudding Barry bought has been
stacked neatly in a corner. Barry stops dead in his tracks
to explain;

			BARRY
	That's part of a very interesting
	airline promotion giveaway that's
	really tremendous. I'm going to
	start a collection of pudding and
	coupons that can be redeemed for
	frequent flyer miles through
	Healthy Choice and American
	Airlines --

			LANCE
	You're goin' on a trip?

			BARRY
	No.........but airline miles are
	just like a currency these days.

			LANCE
	You should go on a trip.

			BARRY
	No thanks.

			LANCE
	So what should I do with the pudding?

			BARRY
	Let's just leave it there for now.

Barry goes into his office and looks at the Harmonium. BEAT.
He presses some keys, makes a little more noise with it. (a
quarter of some sort of melody starts here...)

ANGLE, MOMENTS LATER.
Barry is cutting up his CREDIT CARD with some scissors. He
throws it away.

ANGLE, MOMENTS LATER.
Barry paces around a little bit.....CAMERA stays inside and
watches him as he walks outside for a moment, looks
around....he sees something outside, hesitates, then dodges
back inside the warehouse --

-- once inside, he takes a horrendous, hurtful fall over
something....He stands up quick;

			BARRY
	This is not supposed to be here.
	Seriously. Carlos, Carlos, this is
	really not supposed to be here. I
	don't mean to be a dick; but that's
	gonna hurt someone. It already did
	hurt someone: It hurt me, so please
	let's move that.

He backs away, then steps OUT OF FRAME...a moment later
ELIZABETH (his sister) and LENA (from the opening) enter the
warehouse, walking towards Barry;

			ELIZABETH
		(to Lena)
	He's wearing a suit again, I don't
	know why he's wearing a suit, he
	doesn't usually dress like that --

			LENA
	It's fine.

CAMERA pushes in towards LENA and blends to 30fps...she
smiles, looks ahead, CAMERA slowly pans a 180 around to
become her POV.

Barry is standing near the harmonium, fiddling around. He
looks up, sees Elizabeth and Lena walking towards him and
tenses....they meet in the middle of the warehouse;

			ELIZABETH
	Hey, what are you doing? Why are
	you wearing a suit again?

			BARRY
	I don't know.

			LENA
	Hi.

			BARRY
	Hi.

			LENA
	Do you remember me, I left my car,
	yesterday.

			BARRY
	Yes I do.

			ELIZABETH
	This is Lena, she's a good friend
	of mine from work. We were in the
	neighborhood and she had to pick up
	her car and we're getting breakfast
	before we go in, so did you want to
	go? We're gonna go and eat, let's go.

			BARRY
	Yeah I can't.

			ELIZABETH
	Why?

			BARRY
	I have work, I can't leave.

			ELIZABETH
	Seriously, though: We're going to
	eat, I said.

			BARRY
	I'm sorry.

			LENA
	It's ok. That's alright.

			ELIZABETH
	Are you learning how to play the
	piano? What is that?

			BARRY
	It's not a piano. LANCE! LANCE!
	MAKE SURE THAT YOU CALL THAT GUY IN
	TOLEDO.

			LANCE (OC)
	WHICH?

			BARRY
	...I'll tell you later.

			ELIZABETH
	You don't wanna come to eat with us?

			WORKER VOICE
	TELEPHONE BARRY ON LINE TWO!

			ELIZABETH
	What's all this pudding?

			BARRY
	I don't know. Can you hang on a
	second?

CAMERA follows Barry as he walks back to his little office,
picks up the phone;

			BARRY
	Hello?

			SEXY VOICE
	We got disconnected before....

			BARRY
	No. No. We got disconnect --
	why?.....you're calling me at
	work....how did you get this
	number -- ?

			SEXY VOICE
	See the thing is I could make it
	really easy on you -- I already
	have your credit card number, your
	information, address and stuff.
	This is so awkward asking like
	this, I'm sorry --

			BARRY
	This makes me very uncomfortable.

			SEXY VOICE
	I need help.

BEAT.

			SEXY VOICE
	Should I just ask your girlfriend?
		(beat)
	Maybe I should call back and talk
	to your girlfriend?

			BARRY
	I don't have a girlfriend --

			SEXY VOICE
	-- you said you did.

			BARRY
	I know I did. But I don't.

			SEXY VOICE
	You lied to me?

			BARRY
	I didn't lie.

			SEXY VOICE
	Why did you tell me you did, then?

			BARRY
	This is....illegal....I'll call the
	police.

			SEXY VOICE
	No you won't.

ANGLE, ELIZABETH AND LENA

			LENA
	I'll go pay for my car.

			ELIZABETH
	Are you sure?

			LENA
	Yeah.

			ELIZABETH
	He's being weird, I'm sorry. I have
	no idea why he's being weird and
	dressed in a suit --

			LENA
	It's not bad, it's ok.

			ELIZABETH
	-- he's so strange I don't know if
	you really even would want to go
	out with him, someone like him, I
	said I'd try, but it's just --

			LENA
	It's ok, it's alright. I'll come
	right back, I'll just go pay for my
	car.

			ELIZABETH
	Sorry.

She leaves. Elizabeth heads for Barry's office;

ANGLE, BARRY on the phone

			SEXY VOICE
	Come on, I thought we had fun, rich
	boy --

			BARRY
	This is not cool.

			SEXY VOICE
	It was cool last night.

			BARRY
	I have to go.

			SEXY VOICE
	Are you telling me no?

			BARRY
	No I'm sorry, now I have to get off
	the phone....

			SEXY VOICE
	....this is your mistake....

Elizabeth comes walking into his office, starts whispering
to him as he's on the phone;

			ELIZABETH
	Hey, hey, you should ask her out --
	what do you think, she's cute, right?

			BARRY
		(into phone)
	I'm gonna call you back.

He starts to hang up the phone, turns to Elizabeth as we hear;

			SEXY VOICE
		(trailing off)
	...MOTHERFUCKER, NO....

			BARRY
	She is. I think, why did you come
	here like this?

			ELIZABETH
	It's not cool?

			BARRY
	It's fine, but --

			ELIZABETH
	-- do you think you'll ask her out?

			BARRY
	I feel really on the spot now.

			ELIZABETH
	Are you gonna do it?

			BARRY
	I don't do that. I don't - things
	like that.

			ELIZABETH
	You don't do anything, why are you
	being scared?

			BARRY
	I'm not being scared, you're just
	going to rag me if I do this --

			ELIZABETH
	I'm not gonna rag you. Why would I
	do this just to rag you?

			BARRY
	I don't know.

			ELIZABETH
	I'll leave then, I'll go to get
	something from my car, go away so
	you don't feel pressure. Can I ask
	you a serious question:

			BARRY
	What?

			ELIZABETH
	Did you ask Walter to get you a
	shrink?
		(beat)
	Barry, did you ask Walter to get
	you a shrink? What's wrong with you?
	Are you ok?

			BARRY
	I didn't ask him that. He's lying.

			ELIZABETH
	You're being weird again, see. Come
	on. Please don't be weird.

ANGLE, BARRY AND ELIZABETH, MOMENTS LATER
They walk out and as they do, Lena comes back in with her
keys in her hand, Elizabeth keeps walking past;

			ELIZABETH
	I gotta grab something from my car....

			LENA
	We should be going --

			ELIZABETH
		(over her shoulder)
	Yeah, no, I have to get something
	from my car, I said.

Barry and Lena about to be alone as Lance walks up;

			LANCE
	Which guy in Toledo are you talking
	about?

			BARRY
	I'll tell you...the
	guy...with...just talk to me later
	about it, ok?

			LANCE
	You talkin' to me about Ramada Inn?

			BARRY
	I have to talk to you in a second
	about that, Lance, ok?

He walks away, Lena turns to him;

			LENA
	I'm sorry I couldn't come to your
	sister's birthday party last night,
	Elizabeth had invited me and I
	couldn't make it --

			BARRY
	It's fine. It was fun, though.

			LENA
	It must be weird for you to have so
	many sisters?

			BARRY
	No. Not at all. It's nice.

			WORKER (OC)
	Telephone, Barry Line One!

Barry turns instantly and walks away....he turns back as he
walks....TWO SHOT - track left with him....

			BARRY
		(turns back)
	One second, sorry.

IN THE OFFICE, THAT MOMENT
He picks up the phone.

			BARRY
	Hello?

			SEXY VOICE
	Hang up again and see the trouble
	it's gonna make.

Barry instantly hangs up the phone, turns around and walks
back to Lena;

			LENA
	Business is good, you're busy?

			BARRY
	Yeah, not really.

			LENA
	I saw a picture of you.

			BARRY
	Yes.
			LENA
	Elizabeth has a picture of you
	guys -- your sisters and you, it's
	a lot of family, it must be nice.

			BARRY
	Do you have brothers or sisters?

			LENA
	No. I'm the exact opposite --

			BARRY
	That must be nice. That must be
	really, really, really great.

			LENA
	It's terrible, no.

No response from Barry. (cut to reverse 2-shot as they look)

			LENA
	What do you do with all this pudding?

			BARRY
	That's not mine it's one of the
	guys that works here. That
	pudding's not mine.

BEAT. In the b.g., two WORKERS are dealing with getting a
large crate on top of a large stack of crates, they're using
a fork lift....in an instant the large CRATE tumbles to the
ground and SMASHES....Barry attempts to not notice this;

			LENA
	Oh My God.

			BARRY
	It's ok. That's ok. How long have
	you worked with Elizabeth?

The workers start calling out and apologizing for this to
Barry, who keeps looking straight ahead to Lena;

			LENA
	Six months, maybe five, five or six
	months...do you wanna check that?

			BARRY
		(to the guys)
	Are you guys hurt?

			WORKERS/LANCE
	No, no, we're ok....Barry, sorry --
			BARRY
		(back to Lena)
	So you do what she does, the same
	work, the same job?

			LENA
	I do, but I do field consultations
	mainly too which is cool because I
	get to travel. I travel. A lot of
	the time. I'm going to Hawaii on
	Friday.

			BARRY
	That's great -- Hawaii. I was
	thinking about going there.

			LENA
	Really?

			BARRY
	I was, yeah, I was thinking about
	going there for business --

			LENA
	-- well, if you're gonna go --

			BARRY
	-- I'm probably not gonna go though.

			LENA
	-- oh that's too bad, it's so great
	over there and if you were there we
	could say hello to each other or
	something --

			BARRY
	-- yeah that would be great, if I
	was gonna go but I'm not exactly
	sure, I have so much goin on
	here -- A lot depends on this thing
	I might do here and if that happens
	I can't go and if it doesn't happen
	then I probably will, but I doubt it.

There's another LOUD CRASH as they try to reposition the box
that's fallen, giving way to something else that FALLS. In
other words, to correct the mistake they've already made,
they have to sacrifice another CRATE that CRASHES. She
looks, Barry just flinches, tries to stay looking straight
ahead; CAMERA (HAND HELD) with Elizabeth, comes walking back
in.....says to Barry:

			ELIZABETH
	I can't find that thing in my car,
	I can't find it so I'll just get it
	and give it to you later. So?

			LENA
		(to Elizabeth)
	You ready?

			ELIZABETH
	Are you coming to eat with us?

			BARRY
	Yeah I can't.

			ELIZABETH
		(at the crates)
	OH MY GOD. Look at that.

			LENA
		(to Barry)
	It was great to meet you again. To
	see you again, thanks for helping
	me yesterday --

			BARRY
	Ok.

			ELIZABETH
		(to Barry)
	What's all this pudding?

			BARRY
	It's not mine.

			ELIZABETH
	Why's it here?

			BARRY
	I have no idea.

			LENA
		(to Elizabeth)
	Are you ready?

			ELIZABETH
		(to Barry)
	Will you call me later to talk
	about asking Walter for the shrink?
	And we can talk about - he said you
	have this crying problem or something?

			LENA
	Bye, Barry.

			BARRY
	Goodbye.

			ELIZABETH
	Call me later.

Lena and Elizabeth leave. CAMERA leads them as they walk;
Sound starts to drop out, we see Barry and the boys cleaning
up the boxes in the back....move into a CU on Lena....Music
Cue. Score. treated piano, small rhythm/melodic(notes of
harmonium so far)/gentle.

			ELIZABETH
	So I'll meet you at the restaraunt?

			LENA
	Ok.

Lena gets into her car. Elizabeth keeps walking. She waits
until Elizabeth is out of sight at the mouth of the driveway
and then she gets back out of her car and walks straight
back into the warehouse.

					CUT TO:

INT. WAREHOUSE - THAT MOMENT

She comes walking in and over to Barry;

			LENA
	I'm going to go and eat tomorrow
	night do you want to go with me?

			BARRY
	Sure.

			LENA
	Do you want to pick me up?

			BARRY
	Sure.

			LENA
	Can I write down my address and
	phone number for you?

			BARRY
	Sure.

They do a small search for a piece of paper, get it all
written down and sorted out and then -- as they do this
there is even more CRASHING AND SMASHING in the b.g., by the
boys -- Barry and Lena settle up and say so long.

			BARRY
	This is funny.

			LENA
	Yeah.

			BARRY
	I didn't ask anyone for a shrink,
	that was someone else. Also: This
	pudding is not mine. Also: I'm
	wearing a suit because I had a very
	important business meeting this
	morning and I don't have a crying
	problem.

			LENA
	Ok.

			BARRY
	Alright?

			LENA
	....Hi.....

			BARRY
	....Hi.....

She walks off. CAMERA leads her out, holds a CU. as she
smiles to herself -- lead her a bit more until she's
outside, and she gets in her car --

CU. BARRY. He smiles, looks around, holds back his emotion
so it looks like he'll explode....tenses, smiles, tears,
looks around....HOLD. End Music Que.

Barry walks in. HOLD. He picks up the phone.

FADE IN:

INT. STEVENS BROTHERS HOUSE - DAY

CAMERA behind a BLONDE GIRLS HEAD (LATISHA). She speaks to
two blonde brothers, DAVID and JIM. In the b.g., walking
around holding a BABY is NATE. (Maybe a girlfriend or wife
or two).

			DAVID
	I'll do it.

			JIM
	I'll do it too.

			DAVID
	But it's gotta wait until my knee
	is better. I can't risk it.

			LATISHA
	You have to do it now.

			JIM
	If we drive there it's a problem.

			LATISHA
	Dean will loan you one of his cars.

			JIM
	Which one?

			LATISHA
	You have to talk to him --

			DAVID
	How do you know he's rich?

			LATISHA
	Because I know, I just know. I
	mean, I talked to him, I know.

Nate emerges a bit from the b.g.

			NATE
	Where are you guys going?

			DAVID
	California. Los Angeles.

			NATE
	When are you leaving?

			DAVID
	Right now.

			LATISHA
	Let's go talk to Dean.

					CUT TO:

INT. LOCAL BAR/PROVO - LATER

LATISHA, DAVID, JIM and NATE enter and meet DEAN TRUMBELL,
listening to AFTER EDEN play onstage, standing in the middle
of the room.

			DEAN
	Hey guys.

			DAVID/JIM/NATE
	Hey, Dean.

			LATISHA
	So they'll go.

			DEAN
	I'm only paying two of you guys.

			DAVID
	That's cool.

			DEAN
	When can you leave?

			DAVID
	As soon as you want.

			DEAN
	I want you to go right away, I
	think that's best. I also need you
	to check out a car for me down
	there that this guy is selling.

They walk towards a back room, as they do they pass a
REGULAR JOE who bumps into Dean accidentally, Dean explodes;

			DEAN
	You wanna fuck around, asshole? You
	wanna get tough, wanna see me kick
	some motherfuck around here?

			REGULAR JOE
	Take it easy, man, relax. Don't --
			DEAN
	I'll relax your fucking head --
	this is my personal space, man,
	this is my personal fucking space,
	you don't violate that, you don't
	do that.

			REGULAR JOE
	I've got a glass in my hand why
	don't you chill out?

			DEAN
	You've got a glass?

Dean takes a BEER BOTTLE and SMASHES it in half on the bar,
holds it up to the guy --

			DEAN
	YEAH. YOU'VE GOT A GLASS, NOW I'VE
	GOT A GLASS. I'VE GOT A GLASS TOO
	MOTHERFUCK.

					JUMP CUT TO:

INT. LOCAL BAR/PROVO - MOMENTS LATER

They're all walking towards a back room of the bar, they
walk past a COUPLE that is fighting. The WOMAN is screaming
at the top of her lungs at the MAN;

			WOMAN
	I WILL CRUSH YOU. I WILL FUCKING
	CRUSH YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS.

Dean gets in the middle of it;

			DEAN
	Take it easy, take it easy you guys
	in here, I need to talk to you
	later, Tommy -- I wanna know if you
	wanna book the boys --

He motions over his shoulder to Ashes to Ashes.

			MAN
	I'll talk to you later.

			WOMAN
	YOU WON'T FUCKIN' TALK TO HIM
	LATER, I WILL CRUSH YOU. I WILL
	CRUSH YOU, ASSHOLE.

					CUT TO:
INT. DEAN'S OFFICE/UPSTAIRS/BACKROOM - MOMENTS LATER

They enter into an upstairs office area. It has a couple
desks and off to the side, in a small, partitioned off room
is The Phone Sex Area; a GIRL on the phone. (We hear bits of
her call, e.g. "Me? I'm in Florida. Laying on my bed.")

There are posters for Ashes to Ashes, filing cabinets,
posters of CARS, lots of various small business items like
order forms and pamphlets, etc. Dean collects a piece of
paper and hands it to David/Nate/Jim;

			DEAN
	Your expenses are your own.

			DAVID
	I thought Latisha said you would --

			DEAN
	-- she didn't know what she was
	talking about --

			DAVID
	It's....whatever....that's not cool.

			DEAN
	David, Don't. Just. Seriously. It
	doesn't make sense if you think
	about it in a fair deal like sense.
	Ok? It's business. Seriously. One
	hundred dollars for two days work
	is a lot more than your family is
	making sitting around your house.
	I'm serious now. Ok. Please. Now.
	Just stop.

He hands him a set of KEYS and goes through the info;

			DEAN
	...keys for the track. You have to
	gas it up and save the receipts on
	that. His address. We have a
	business address too if you need
	that -- but hit him at his house
	first, see what this little bad boy
	is all about and shake him up --
	give him a little doe-see-doe --

			LATISHA
	Uch. Shut up, Dean.

			DEAN
	What's the problem?

			LATISHA
	You don't need to talk all macho,
	"shake him out, little bad boy."
	Whatever -- you're not an action
	hero, tough guy, you're not a
	gangster --

He makes a very SUDDEN AND QUICK MOVE towards her and she
FLINCHES.

			DEAN
	Flinchy. That's what I thought.
	Shut up.
		(to Greg)
	Call me when you see this guy --
	check him out see what's what. She
	asked him for seven fifty when she
	was on the phone with him, so --
	just call me when you get there.

He hands him another piece of paper and a photo;

			DEAN
	This is this place called Ace
	Vintage, you gotta find it, I don't
	know exactly where this is and I
	don't understand these maps so just
	go there and check it out. It's a
	'61 AC Cobra that this old guy says
	is fine, but I need to figure out
	why he's only asking 23 for it. So
	take a look, the whole thing, call
	me about that, if it seems alright
	then I'll head down there and check
	it out.

			DAVID
	Ok.

			DEAN
	That's it.

			DAVID
	Can we maybe ask for more money on
	this?

			LATISHA
	Why?

			DAVID
	...because it's California? I mean
	it's like a nine or ten hour drive.
	It's not like going to Salt Lake
	and getting the Mormon's, it's
	different...

After a long, long staring contest with David, Dean SUDDENLY
AND VERY VIOLENTLY PUTS HIS FIST THROUGH THE WALL....then
turns to David......Latisha rolls her eyes. David, Nate and
Jim leave.

EXT/INT. LENA'S APARTMENT COMPLEX - EVENING

This is a SPLIT SCREEN SEQUENCE shot with TWO CAMERAS.

THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SCREEN holds Lena. She waits in her
small, nondescript apartment doing the things you do while
waiting for someone else. She sits, stands, sits, stands....

THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE THE SCREEN travels (STEADICAM) with
Barry as he walks into the RECEPTION AREA. There is a
SECURITY GUARD (black, female) who asks him his name, where
he's going and to sign in. The Security Guard calls up to
Lena's place....

....and we watch Lena answer the phone....

...The Security Guard gives Barry some very complicated
directions....we follow/lead Barry as he makes his way
through the maze/up elevators/down corridors looking for
Lena's apartment.....Finally, he arrives, knocks;

			LENA
	Who is it?

			BARRY
	It's Barry.

As she opens the door, THE SPLIT SCREEN SLIDES AWAY AND THE
IMAGES GIVE WAY TO THE ONE OF LENA standing;

			LENA
	Hi.

					CUT TO:

INT. RESTAURANT - NIGHT

Lena and Barry at a table. They talk (see notes.)

			LENA
	So I want to tell you something, I
	gotta tell you: I saw a picture of
	you guys, your sisters and you and
	I saw your picture and I really
	wanted to meet you.
		(beat)
	I came to drop my car off there on
	purpose, to try and meet you.

Barry leans a little bit out of FRAME.

			BARRY
	...really? That's nice...are you
	lying?

			LENA
	...I thought I should tell you. I
	didn't want to get too far along on
	going out and be hiding something --

BEAT. He leans slightly back in FRAME.

			BARRY
	That's very nice. Thank you. Thank
	you for saying that.
		(beat)
	You're friends with my sister?

			LENA
	Yeah.

			BARRY
	How long have you known her?

			LENA
	About six months.

			BARRY
	You like her?

			LENA
	Yeah. Yeah we get along well.
		(beat)
	You didn't get along with her very
	well?

			BARRY
	Did you really come to meet me on
	purpose or are you lying about that?

			LENA
	No, no. I did.

			BARRY
	That's nice. It's nice.
		(beat)
	I've been looking around a lot
	lately at promotional giveaways,
	cross promotional work by some
	companies. Do you remember all that
	pudding?

			LENA
	Yeah.

			BARRY
	So that pudding was bought, I
	bought that pudding because of a
	pretty interesting promotion that's
	sponsored by Healthy Choice and
	American Airlines. It's designed to
	encourage airline travel and
	obviously designed to encourage
	buying Healthy Choice products.
	They make frozen meals, deli meats,
	pasta sauce, breads, soups and ice
	creams, this sort of thing.....

			LENA
	Yeah?

			BARRY
	....I'm sorry....I lost my
	thoughts, what I was saying....

			LENA
	You were talking about the
	promotion --

			BARRY
	-- the promotion says: buy any 10
	Healthy Choice products and get 500
	miles of airline travel or 1,000
	for purchases made with a special
	coupon. So in the supermarket, you
	notice their products, first you
	notice they have a Teriyaki Chicken
	Dinner at $1.79 - that's a pretty
	good deal....but then I noticed
	they had soup at 89 cents a
	can.....and you start to do the
	math and you start to notice that
	it's a really amazing deal because
	I stumbled across the pudding at 25
	cents a cup. Now the crucial thing
	is the bar codes on the label.
	That's those little bar codes, you
	know? The universal product codes?

			LENA
	Yeah.

			BARRY
	That's what's used to redeem the
	mileage, so in noticing the
	pudding, each cup had an individual
	bar code -- in other words: Two
	dollars and fifty cents for ten
	cups of pudding is 500 miles. Add
	in the coupon: it's one thousand.
	You see?

			LENA
	Yeah.

			BARRY
	You see?

			LENA
	Yeah, no, I see --

			BARRY
	You see if you spent $3,000 dollars
	on pudding you could earn over one
	million frequent flyer miles.

			LENA
	That's insane. That is really,
	really crazy. That's just crazy if
	you spend three thousand dollars on
	pudding.

			BARRY
	....yeah....

			LENA
	So that was your pudding?

			BARRY
	....No....

			LENA
	I'm sorry. I thought you said --

			BARRY
	No I didn't say that.

			LENA
	I thought you said you bought all
	that pudding --

			BARRY
	My friend Carlos is doing it who
	works with me. It's his. It's his
	pudding, he's doing it. It's not
	mine. He's crazy. I told him not to
	do it. He's the one who's insane.
	He only spent about one hundred
	dollars so far though --

			LENA
	Your sister was telling me a pretty
	funny story about you, when you
	guys were kids and you were
	building a ramp for your dog and
	you threw a hammer through a window?
	Is that right? You threw a hammer
	through a sliding glass door?

Barry starts to WELL WITH TEARS, which he hides very
quickly, holds a hand up to his face as if he's touching his
nose, and then he smiles;

			BARRY
	I don't remember that, she might be
	lying. I have to go the bathroom.

He gets up and goes.

					CUT TO:

INT. BATHROOM - MOMENTS LATER

Barry walks in and goes a little crazy. He's mad at himself
and he HITS a stall....it seems loose already and falls
straight to the floor.

This makes him go crazier and he continues to BEAT and KICK
the shit out of the bathroom/stall.

HOLD. He collects himself and then he hesitates, looks
around, tries to collect the bathroom but it's in ruins, he
exits....

					CUT TO:

INT. RESTARAUNT - MOMENTS LATER

Barry comes back and sits down, seems a little better. Tries
to be a little flirtatious for half a moment before: the
MANAGER comes over, leans in carefully;

	Hello.

			LENA & BARRY
	Hi.

			MANAGER
	Sir, can I talk to you?

			BARRY
	Why?

			MANAGER
	Just have you for one second, please.

He looks to Lena, excuses himself.

ANGLE, OFF TO THE SIDE.
The Manager and Barry step away, in a quiet section of the
restaraunt, 2-shot, profile, in sotto; SLOW ZOOM IN.

			MANAGER
	Sir, the bathroom was just torn apart.

			BARRY
	Yeah.

			MANAGER
	Did you do it?

			BARRY
	No.

			MANAGER
	You didn't just smash up the bathroom?

			BARRY
	No.

			MANAGER
	Well who did?

			BARRY
	I don't know.

			MANAGER
	You're hand is bleeding.

			BARRY
	I cut myself.

			MANAGER
	How?

			BARRY
	On my knife.

			MANAGER
	Sir, a young man saw you coming out
	of the bathroom.

			BARRY
	I didn't do that.

BEAT.

			BARRY
	Why? ...what?

			MANAGER
	Your hand is bleeding.

			BARRY
	I know.

			MANAGER
	I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.

			BARRY
	Why?

			MANAGER
	Sir, I have no way of proving that
	you demolished the bathroom --

			BARRY
	I didn't do it.

			MANAGER
	Alright, well you're gonna have to
	leave. You're gonna have to go.

			BARRY
	Yeah, but I didn't do anything.

			MANAGER
	I'm gonna call the police then, sir.

			BARRY
	Please don't do this to me.

			MANAGER
	The police are on their way.

			BARRY
	Sorry.

He starts to move back....

			BARRY
	Can I pay you here? Can I pay you
	for our drinks and salad?

			MANAGER
	That's fine.

Barry takes out some money and hands it over.

			BARRY
	Keep the change, please.

ANGLE, BACK AT THE TABLE.
They walk back to the table and Barry whispers down to her,
very close, STEADICAM (leads them out - continuous)

			BARRY
	We should go I think, I don't like
	it here.

			LENA
	Ok.

They head out of the restaraunt.

			LENA
	Is everything ok?

			BARRY
	Yes.

			LENA
	What happened?

			BARRY
	Nothing.

			LENA
	What did he want?

			BARRY
	Nothing.

They walk a bit.

			BARRY
	I have a better idea of where we
	can go.

			LENA
	Ok.

They walk some more.

			BARRY
	There's a better place for us to eat.

	I'm looking for the Mattress Man.

			EMPLOYEE
	Who?

			BARRY
	Whoever owns this.

			EMPLOYEE
	In the back.....

Barry walks towards the back.....he rounds a corner....to
reveal:

DEAN is in a back room, he's getting his hair cut by
LATISHA.....he turns and looks at Barry, who stands there
with the phone in his hand.

They stare at each other.

			BARRY
	I'm a nice and reasonable man. I
	didn't do anything wrong. Please
	don't make me hurt you. And I'm
	telling you: that if you ever hurt
	me or if you hurt someone that I
	love.....I will hurt you many,
	many, many times over.....because
	it's not right to take people's trust.

			DEAN
	You came all the way from Los
	Angeles to tell me that?

			BARRY
	Yes I did.

Dean doesn't respond.

			BARRY
	Can we agree that that is that?

			DEAN
	That's that.

			BARRY
	Thank you.

Barry hands him the phone.

Barry exits.....as he's about to go out the doors, Dean
screams;

			DEAN
	NOW GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE MAN.

Various: Barry gets out of the elevators carrying the

He bursts through the door. He places the harmonium down on
the ground.....He rings the bell.....

...she answers....he says:

			BARRY
	Lena I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry
	that I left you at the hospital.....
	I called a phone sex line.
	I called a phone sex line before I
	met you and then these four blond
	brothers came after me and you got
	hurt and I'm sorry -- and I had to
	leave because I don't want you to
	get hurt again and now I'm here and
	I'm back and I have a lot of
	pudding that I can redeem in six to
	eight weeks and if you give me that
	much time I can get enough miles to
	fly with you wherever you have to
	go if you have to travel for your
	job because I don't want to be
	anywhere without you.....can you
	please let me redeem the mileage?

			LENA
	You left me at the hospital.

			BARRY
	I'm sorry.

			LENA
	You can't do that.

			BARRY
	Ok.

BEAT.

			BARRY
	If you give me six to eight weeks I
	can redeem the mileage and then I
	can with you wherever you have to
	travel......

			LENA
