Script

setting is in the restaurant kitchen, the store is about to close and all the employees are getting ready to go home.

Beat 1………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Isaac: Hey, CJ (yelling from across the counter) can you go lock the doors, we’re about to close up.

CJ: Yah man (sighs) just give me a sec, I’m cleaning the lobby.

Isaac: Alright just try to hurry up, I don’t wanna be here all night. (walks away)

CJ: Yah yah, I gotcha. 

Beat 2 ………………………………………………………………………………………………………

CJ just get’s done cleaning the lobby and comes behind the front counter where Isaac is working in the office.

CJ: Alright boss, I’m all done can I get outta hear now? (sarcastically) 

Isaac: Hold on a sec, everything looks good except one thing.

CJ: What is it?

Isaac: You
CJ: Me?! What about me. I’m perfectly fine.

Isaac: Yah right man, just let the cat out of the bag. What’s wrong?

Beat 3 ……………………………………………………………………………………………………

CJ: (sighs) alright, I’m not feeling the best. But it’s not a big deal. Don’t worry about it.

Isaac: Well it is most certainly a big deal! You’ve not been doing the best all day. And I know you, you’re a great worker. What’s wrong? You can tell me man.


CJ: You really wanna know? (says reluctantly)

Isaac: Of course, I’m your friend aren’t I?

CJ: Alright, Alright I’ll tell you okay. 

Beat 4 ……………………………………………………………………………………………………

CJ: (stares intensely) I can’t beat this mission in Fallout 4 and it’s really frustrating! I’ve been at it for 3 days and have made no progress!

Isaac: Are you serious? (begins laughing)

CJ: Stop laughing, I thought you were my friend?! You’re supposed to help not laugh!

Isaac: I’m sorry , I’m sorry. I was just expecting something way more dramatic. (wiping tears of laughter fro his eyes) If that’s all it is I can help you beat it.

CJ: Really?!

Isaac: Of course man, I beat that game like a week ago. I’ll come over this weekend and help you out. No problem.

CJ: That would be awesome!


Isaac: You’re damn right, know let’s get outta here.
