book of spells". He looks over and sees Nikki and Lita
huddled so closely together.

TOM ZUTAUT (cont.)

on.

up.

Second, you shouldn't be messin'
around with this satanic stuff.
Seriously Nikki, it's intense man,
don't mess with it. I'll be back

there is silverware all over the floor. Tom Zutaut lets
himself in. Nikki is sitting on a chair and Lita is on the
couch sitting up straight.

TOM ZUTAUT
(shocked)
What the hell have you guys been
doing? I said don't mess with this
stuff!

26.

Tom. I tried to tell you: stuff is
just flying around here for no
reason.

knife rise up and dart straight into the ceiling. Shot of

INT. ELEKTRA RECORDS OFFICE - DAY

Doc, Doug, and Tom are sitting at a desk.

DOC MCGHEE
Mr. Zutaut, I'm Doc McGhee, this
is my colleague Doug Thaler. We
feel we can take Motley Crue to
the top. We have the experience,
we have the money. We're going to
make Motley Crue the biggest band
out there and any money Elektra
Records won't put up to make it
happen, I will."

DOUG THALER
I agree Mr. Zutaut. The band has
just made their next album. Their
gonna call it "Shout at the
Devil", why I don't know, but
that's beside the point.

Tom takes a sip of his beer.

27.

TOM ZUTAUT
I think I have an idea.

DOUG THALER
How?

TOM ZUTAUT
No, nothing, I just stopped by
Nikki's place yesterday and..I
think I can guess why they decided
to call the album that.

DOUG THALER
Well, anyway, Doc and I have
gotten them into the "US
Festival", there's gonna be like
almost 700,000 fans there. I mean
Van Halen, Ozzy, Judas Priest,
Scorpions, it's gonna be huge -

this could be what puts them on
the map.

finds out."

FADE OUT.

INT. ELEKTRA RECORDS OFFICE - DAY

An interviewer catches up with Tom Zutaut the next day.
Camera stays on the two of them throughout interview.

INTERVIEWER
Tell me about the US Festival.

TOM ZUTAUT
I just remember driving into the
middle of nowhere and the band
getting paid a lot of money by
some guy from Apple to play this
concert in front of all these
people.

INTERVIEWER
Do you remember anything else
notable about that day?

TOM ZUTAUT
Well it was kind of weird seeing
them play outside in the middle of
the day.

INTERVIEWER
Did you go to the festival with
anybody?

TOM ZUTAUT
I went with Doc McGhee and Doug
Thaler.

INTERVIEWER
Did anything strange happen with
your girlfriend that day?

TOM ZUTAUT
No, not that I can remember.

INTERVIEWER
Because Vince slept with her.

TOM ZUTAUT
He slept with my girlfriend?

31.

INTERVIEWER
That's what he told me.

TOM ZUTAUT
No, it couldn't have been her.

INTERVIEWER
He said she was wearing a
leopard-skin bikini.

TOM ZUTAUT
Okay, then it was a different
girl. The real meaningful
girlfriend wouldn't have worn a
leopard-skin bikini. It was
probably some trashy date I was
with. Nikki has probably worried
about it, but she didn't mean
anything to me.

INTERVIEWER
It was Vince, not Nikki.

TOM ZUTAUT
It was Vince? Well, Vince had a
never-ending stream of girls. He
would do ten girls before the set
and ten after. You used to look at
him and say, "man where does he
get it?" Her name was Amanda from
San Diego, and now that I think of
it more, I remember her wearing
some skimpy leopard-skin kind of
stuff.

INTERVIEWER
Were you upset?

TOM ZUTAUT
If someone was important to me, I
wouldn't take them to a rock show
like that. I definitely wouldn't
leave anyone in a trailer with any
member of Motley Crue. But the
Vince thing I definitely didn't
know about.

INTERVIEWER
I'm sorry to have to break it to
you.

32.

TOM ZUTAUT
Yeah, I do think that with Vince
it was the girl from San Diego.
And, you know, our relationship
broke up shortly after that. She
started acting really weird after
the festival. I remember her being
really weird after that, so weird
that I don't remember ever seeing
her again.

FADE OUT.
