INT. BATHROOM - NIGHT
BRAD a 20 something college student busts into the bathroom and
quickly spins to hold the door closed. He's not quick enough
and MATT managed to get his foot in the door.
MATT
Let me in!
BRAD
No. You don't have to go 'that'
badly.
MATT
Very funny. Give it back.
BRAD
What?
MATT
Give the phone back!
BRAD
What phone?
Brad stops pushing back on the door and Matt tumbles into
the medium sized bathroom.
MATT
Why must you make my life so
difficult?
BRAD
It's all cool. It's just good ol
fashion fun.
MATT
It's good ol fashion theft is what
it is. Now give me the phone back.
Matt makes a grab for the phone. Brad pulls it away at the last
moment.
BRAD
It's not like your expecting any
important calls now.
Matt stops, arms drop and gives that look, the yeah
MATT
She could call at any moment. You
know that right?
BRAD
That's what makes this so much fun.
MATT
I ain't laughin! So give it back.
Matt makes another grab, this time a small brawl style grappling
takes place. Brad still manages to keep the phone just out
of Matt's reach.
BRAD
She's going to call you? You! The
nerve.. the audacity. The..
MATT
jealous?
Brad freezes but for a single half second giving the thrashing
Matt a solid chance to obtain the phone. Only he fumbles the
grab and bumps the phone. It goes flying, hits a wall,
bounces off the sink and lands square in the TOILET with a
very matter of fact bloop!
.... shock and silence.
MATT
Brraaaddd!!!
BRAD
Ooops.
MATT
I can't stand this. You idiot you.
You..
BRAD
(trying to keep from laughing)
Heh heh I.. ahem
MATT
This is it man this is the last
straw.
BRAD
I'll buy you a new one.
MATT
That's not..
Ring ring.
Both boys freeze. Matt's eyes bug out a bit and after a moment
Brad's stunned expression gives way to laughter.
MATT
Oh my god.
BRAD
Well what da ya know.. She DID call
you!
MATT
Oh my god.
Ring ring.
BRAD
So, you gonna answer it? Or not?
MATT
Oh my god.
The Matt, still frozen in shock, begins to reach. Then pulls back
with a cringe.
MATT(CONT.)
I...
Every ring makes him cringe even more and on every attempt
to answer the water logged phone he retracts a bit more much
the way a lizard will walk on the hottest sands of the
desert at high noon.
MATT(CONT.)
I can't believe this.
BRAD
I'm gettin the camera.
MATT
Brad!
BRAD
Be back in a sec sweetie.
