#9: SuperBad

I am McLovin

Details in the Script: The scene takes place in a local liquor store. There are only three characters in which we can see, two policemen and a woman. The policemen are both white and dressed in their police uniforms. The lady is of a darker skin tone, "African" if you will. The woman stands behind the counter; she is the cashier. The counter is never seen, but we know that it is there because she leans on it. It is most likely up to about her waist. Both of the policemen have a pencil and a notepad. The scene doesn't change at all and no props are added or lost.

Details to and for the People: This scene is filmed by switching back and forth between the two parties. It goes from the woman behind the counter to the two policemen. The policemen use the notepads and pencils to take notes and to illustrate an M&M when the time comes. They also use them in their hand gestures, which add to the interrogation somewhat. The two policemen add in stupidity to the role by contradicting each other and the woman. They stutter when speaking to show that they are not the best of policemen. The cashier puts an attitude into her voice, so that she can sound more annoyed at the policemen. She carries a different tone through the scene as her mood changes from annoyed to downright angry.

#8 Struggle

Fading in and out,
To the other side and back;
The choice is all yours.
-------
Giving out your strength
Paler and paler each day
'til there's nothing left.
-------
Packing back and forth
For what seems like a lifetime-
Waiting for your fate.
