ORLANDO
God, I am at your mercy. I don't
talk to you much, but I need a
favor. Will you, please, make me
rich and famous? I'll do anything
you ask me to do. If you grant me
this one teeny-weeny wish I will
make a promise to go to church
every Sunday....I'll read the
Bible!...I'll even stop swearing,
and I'll give up lying to women to
get what I want. Please, God, if
you're listening, and I know you
are, give me a sign |

Orlando walks into the apartment, and slams the door shut.
He throws his jacket on the couch, and heads for the fridge.
He grabs a beer, and twists the cap. |

ORLANDO
At least you won't let me down. |

He chugs the beer, stops then lets out a burp.
The phone rings.

Dan and Steve enter the house. Orlando walks to the fridge
and puts the beer in it |
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
You're not going to go out wearing
that, are you? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Steve)
What's wrong with what I have on? |
|
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
I don't know..maybe it's because
you look like a slob |
|
|
Steve turns to Dan and laughs. Orlando looks at both of
them and shakes his head |
|
|
DAN
(to Steve)
Shut up and drink a beer |
|
|
Dan walks over to the living room. He takes a seat across
from Steve. Orlando takes a seat. |
|
|
DAN
Hey Orlando, tell my cousin what
happened to you today. |

You idiot!! I told you to stay
away from her!
(turns to Dan)
Dan, this girl loves to get people
fired, let me tell you.
(turns to Orlando)
Orlando, I told you when I got you
the job to stay away from her! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Steve)
I thought you were talking about
the other one...Bethany |
|
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
No,no,no, Bethany is the good
one...ugly one, but the good one. |
|
|
|
DAN
I don't want to hear anymore of

sound like you're full of shit. |

ORLANDO
Maybe..you never know unless you

|
|

DAN

Alright, if you had your choice of
any girl in here to talk to, who

ORLANDO
(scanning the club)

You don't have the balls |
|
|

|
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Gentleman...let me show you how
it's done |
|
|
Orlando makes his way over to a group of FOUR GIRLS. They
are in a conversation, and Orlando decides to cut in on it |
|
|
ORLANDO
Ladies, the solution to your
problem has arrived. |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Steve)
Get ready to laugh |
|
|
|
FIRST GIRL
(flirty smile)
What problem is that? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to First girl)
Well, I couldn't help notice how
bored you girls looked...so..I'm

Third girl motions to the other girls to leave |
|
|
THIRD GIRL
Come on girls, let's go |
|
|
Second, third and fourth girl leave, but first girl stays
with Orlando |
|
|
FIRST GIRL

|
|

|
|
THIRD GIRL
(cocky)
Suit yourself |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(kissing first
girls hand)
I guess that leaves just the two
of us |
|
|
Steve and Dan watch in amazement |
|
|
STEVE
(to Dan)
Dude, he is kissing her hand! |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Steve)
Wait..it gets better |
|
|
|
STEVE
(to Dan)
He better not screw it up |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Steve)
Actually, that is the best part! I
bet you ten bucks he does |
|
|
|
STEVE
(to Dan)
You're on! |
|
|
Steve and Dan shake on the bet. Dan walks up to the
bartender |
|
|
DAN
(to bartender)
Give me a shot of Cognac |
|
|
Bartender acknowledges Dan's order |
|
|
FIRST GIRL
(to Orlando)
So, do you come here often? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to First girl)
No..actually it is hard to get
out..with my work and all. |
|
|
10.
|
|
FIRST GIRL
(to Orlando)
Oh yeah? What do you do? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to First girl)
I'm a record producer |
|
|
|
FIRST GIRL
(to Orlando)
Really?...how exciting. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to First girl)
Well, you know what would be even
more exciting?..you giving me your
phone number. |
|
|
|
FIRST GIRL
(to Orlando)
Have a pen? |
|
|
Orlando pauses for 3 seconds..then rapidly pulls out a pen
from his back pocket and hands it to the girl |
|
First Girl grabs Orlando's hand and proceeds to write her
phone number on the palm of his hand. Orlando looks down at
First Girl's feet. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(smiling)
Can I ask you a question? |
|
|
|
FIRST GIRL
(writing on
Orlando's hand)
Sure sexy |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to First girl)
Can I smell your feet? |
|
|
First Girl looks at Orlando in shock. She stops writing, and
slaps him in the face. |
|
|
FIRST GIRL
(to Orlando)
You're one sick and twisted
pervert! |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Steve)
Pay up, bitch |
|
|
11.
|
First Girl runs off. Orlando looks at his had and it reads
555-23 |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to self)
So close..and yet so far. But I'm
getting better |
|
|
|
STEVE
(to Dan)
He's an idiot! |
|
|
Orlando walks over to Dan and Steve |
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
What the hell did you say to her? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Steve)
I just asked her....if I could..if
I could smell her feet |
|
|
Dan bursts out in a laugh |
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
IDIOT!! You are a fucking idiot!!
I never saw anyone screw up such a
good thing. I mean, man, she was
totally hot. And she was into
you!! |
|
|
|
DAN
(Handing orlando a
shot)
Hey, I got your favorite drink. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(smelling drink)
What is it? |
|
|
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Who cares anyway...it's all about
getting drunk |
|
|
Orlando swills down the shot, and has a disgusted look on
his face |
|
12.
|
|
|
Dan and Steve are laughing hysterically |
|
|
ORLANDO
What are you guys laughing for?
It's not funny! |
|
|
|
STEVE
Oh, and smelling some chicks feet
is not hysterical either, right? |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Orlando)
Admit it. You love it? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Dan)
ahhh..it's not that bad |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Orlando)

ORLANDO
(to Dan)
Dude, I never puke |

INT. DAN'S CAR - NIGHT |

Car is moving. Orlando is sitting in the back and is clearly
intoxicated. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Dan)
Pull over! |
|
|
Dan pulls over to the side of the barely traveled road.
Orlando rapidly swings open the rear door and pukes onto the
pavement. |
|
|
DAN
(shaking head)
Oh man |
|
|
|
INT. ORLANDO'S BEDROOM - DAY |

Yes!! Sure!! When do I start? |
|

|
DIANE NICHOLS (O.S.)
There is a wardrobe fitting at 3pm

|
|
DIANE NICHOLS (O.S.)

|
|
Orlando hangs up the phone and is excited |
|
|
ORLANDO
YIPPEE!! I'm going to be famous!!
Thank you God for listening...now,
where is that movie script? |
|
|
Orlando is frantically running around his bedroom looking
for something.
He goes in draws, closets, under the bed.
|
14.
|
He heads to the nightstand and pulls out a movie script with
the words "written by Orlando Remington" visible |
|
The phone rings again. Orlando picks up phone and he grips
receiver. |

INTERCUT: PHONE CONVERSATION |

DAN
Yeahhhh, how are you feeling? |
|
|

ORLANDO
Dude, you're never gonna believe
what just happened! |

DAN
What? That you were sober last
night? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO

just got a call from a casting
agent to be an extra in a Steven
Spielberg movie!! |
|
|
|
DAN
Who's Steven Spielberg? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
You gotta be fucking kidding me,
right?
(beat)
He's probably one of the greatest
Hollywood movie directors--of all
time! |
|
|
|
DAN
How did you pull that off? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I went to a casting call a few
weeks ago. I had no idea they
would ever call me! |
|
|
|
DAN
So what's the part? A stone cold
drunk? Ha! |
|
|
15.
|
|
ORLANDO
Funny..No, it's just an extra, but
I'm going to find a way to hand
him a movie script I have been
working on. |
|
|
|
DAN
(laughing)
You? A movie writer? Ha! Well, you
sure are full of stories. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Whatever...look, I gotta go. I
have to be there for three. |
|
|

END INTERCUT |
|
|
INT. CASTING OFFICE - DAY |
|
50 or so people are in the office. They can be seen wearing
18th Century garb. Orlando scans the room for Spielberg.
Spielberg can be seen in a corner room speaking with a dozen
or so people. Orlando walks up to the front desk. |
|
|
DIANE NICHOLS
(to Orlando)
Can I have your name? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yeah..Orlando Remington.
o-r-l-a-n-d-o Remington. |
|
|
|
DIANE NICHOLS
Alright sir, if you just take a
seat we will have someone call
your name in a few moments |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(pointing)
Is that Steven Spielberg over
there? |
|
|
16.
|
|
DIANE NICHOLS
Have a seat and we will be with
you, sir |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to casting agent)
You think there is anyway I can
meet with him? |
|
|
|
DIANE NICHOLS
(to Orlando)
Sir, Mr Spielberg is quite busy at
the moment. If you can please
take a seat..thank-you |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to casting agent)
Sure...oh! Where's the bathroom? |
|
|
|
DIANE NICHOLS
(to Orlando)
Down the hall and to your left |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Thank you, and I'm sorry for being
such a pain in the butt. I'm
nervous, that's all. |
|
|
The casting agent walks off. Orlando looks in the direction
of Spielberg. Then, he looks to see if anyone is paying
attention. He walks towards Spielbergs office, and stands
right in front of him |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Spielberg)
Good afternoon sir. My name is
Orlando and... |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
(cutting off)
Wardrobe fitting is on the other
side, son |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Spielberg)
I know sir, but I am one of your
biggest fans and I have something
that you might be interested in
(hands Spielberg his movie script)
Here is a script that I wrote. I
know that you are a family man,
and it is a good family movie. |
|
|
17.
|
The casting agent sees Orlando in the office and rushes in,
along with TWO SECURITY GUARDS |
|
|
DIANE NICHOLS
(to Orlando)
What, might I ask, are you
doing??? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to casting agent)
Actually, I am speaking to Mr
Spielberg until you rudely
interrupted. |
|
|
|
DIANE NICHOLS
(to Orlando)
Get out! We will no longer be
needing your services! Security,
escort this man out. |
|
|
TWO SECURITY GUARDS can be seen escorting Orlando out, by
the arms. |
|
|
DIANE NICHOLS
(to mr Spielberg)
Sorry, Mr Spielberg. That will
never happen again |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
(to casting agent)
Not a problem. Sometimes you have
to grab what you want n life. |
|
|
Casting agent eyes the script in Spielbergs hand. |
|
|
DIANE NICHOLS
(looking at script)
Would you like me to discard that
for you, Mr Spielberg? |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
(to casting agent)
Actually, I'll make an attempt to
read it. |
|
|
|
EXT. CASTING OFFICE - DAY |
|
Orlando can be seen moping to his car. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to self)
I have to stop being such an
idiot, and focus on getting a real

|
|
18.
|
|
ORLANDO (cont'd)
job. And, a real car. |
|
|
Orlando gets in his car and starts it up. He looks across
the street. There is a GIRL, in her TWENTIES. Her name
will later be revealed as SHEILA |
|
|
ORLANDO
(looking at girl)
Damn, I want to get with that |
|
|
Orlando looks at himself in the mirror, fixes his hair,
shuts off the car and say's "she's worthy". Steps out of
the car and runs towards the girl. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to girl)
Hi, I couldn't help but notice how
beautiful you are. My name is
Orlando, what's yours? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
(smiling)
Sheila. Nice to meet you Orlando,
but I'm late for an appointment. |
|
|
Sheila is walking briskly and Orlando is pursuing her. |
|
|
ORLANDO
That's cool, can I escort you? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
No thanks. I'm almost there. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Well, can I at least get your
number? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
I live with my parents, and I'm
not allowed to receive calls after
10. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
It is clearly not my intent to
call you that late. (beat) So, how
about it? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
How about if you give me your
number? |
|
|
19.
|
|
ORLANDO
Sure! You have a pen? |
|
|
Sheila stops in front of a building. Orlando looks up and
realizes it is the same building of the casting agent. |
|
|
ORLANDO
Let me guess. You are cast in a
Steven Spielberg movie as an
extra..right? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
(surprised)
Yeah! How did you know? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(sarcastically)
Oh..I don't know..maybe because I
am all knowing..ha. (beat) Well,
I'll see ya around sometime.
Sorry, to take up your time |
|
|
|
SHEILA
I'll see ya around |
|
|
Sheila enters building |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to self)
Yeah, Hopefully very soon |
|
|
|
INT. ORLANDO'S APARTMENT - DAY |
|
The front door swings open, and Orlando walks in. The phone
rings, and Orlando walks to the phone looking smug. He is
seen dragging his feet. He picks up the phone, thinking it's
Spielberg. |
|
|
|
|
DAN
hey, I got you a job! |
|
|
|
|
|
DAN
At my mother's real estate office |
|
|
20.
|
|
ORLANDO
(sad again)
Doing what? |
|
|
|
DAN
Answering the phone and stuff |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
That sounds easy, when do I start? |
|
|
|
DAN
You can start right now, if you
want. My mother needs someone
ASAP, because all the agent's are
out showing houses. And the
receptionist left due to an
emergency. (break) You up for it? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Why don't you do it? |
|
|
|
DAN
Because I'm not the one who needs
a job! So, are you going to do it
or what? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(reluctantly)
Yeah, I'll do it. |
|
|
|
DAN
Dude, this is an easy job...don't
screw it up! |
|
|
|
|
|
DAN
Yeah you! If you screw this up
I'll never hang with your sorry
ass again..understand? |
|
|

ORLANDO
Don't worry buddy. I'll have
everything under control.
After-all, I am a new person. The
old me has left the building with
Elvis. |

INT. REAL ESTATE OFFICE - DAY |
|
Dan's MOTHER, MRS ANDERSON, is going over details with
Orlando. |
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
Alright Orlando, this is the
phone. All I want you to do is
answer it and take messages. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
That's it? You need me to do
anything else? I mean..answering
phones seems to easy. |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
It is very important to answer the
phone in a pleasant voice.
Character means everything in this
business. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Don't worry Mrs Anderson. I am
the most pleasant person you have
ever met. |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
I know you are, dear, but I have a
lot of celebrity clients and some
of them have attitudes. So, don't
talk back. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
No problem. I got this thing
covered. |
|
|
Mrs. Anderson opens a draw and pulls out a set of key's. |
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
Alright, I'm running a bit late.
Here are the keys. Lock up at
8..and not earlier. |
|
|
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
I have to go. I left a number
where I can be reached. See you
later. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Bye Mrs Anderson. Good luck |
|
|
22.
|
Mrs Anderson exits the door. Orlando see's her out and
waves bye to her. Then walks back into the office. |
|
|
ORLANDO
Alright. Time to Par-tay |
|
|
Phone rings. Orlando answers |
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Hello Anderson Realty. Orlando
speaking, how may I help you? |
|
|
MAN, is on the phone with Orlando |
|
|
MAN
Yes, I need to speak to Gail
Anderson |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Mrs Anderson is at a showing right
now. Can I take a message? |
|
|
|
MAN
Yes, I saw a nice ranch with my
wife the other day and would like
to make an offer on the property. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
yeah yeah..what is your name? |
|
|
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Do you have a last name, Alec? |
|
|
|
MAN
Baldwin. Alec Baldwin. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Ahhh..Thee Alec Baldwin? |
|
|
|
MAN
Yes. Can you have Gail return my
call? As soon as possible too. I
would like to close this deal as
soon as possible. |
|
|
23.
|
|
ORLANDO
Alright. I will give her the
message that the great Alec
Baldwin called on the ranch that
he saw with his wife. |
|
|
|
MAN
That will greatly be appreciated |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Hey, you wouldn't happen to know
Steven Spielberg..would you? |
|
|
|
MAN
I'm Alec Baldwin, I know everyone
from Kings to Queens to the
President of the United States. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Well, maybe you can help me out. I
handed him a movie script and
wanted to know if you can get him
to read it? Oh, there is an
awesome part in it for you. |
|
|
|
MAN
You know what?..Tell Gail the deal
is off. I can't be hounded like
this. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Hello..hello...Mr Baldwin?? |
|
|
Alec Baldwin hung up the phone on Orlando. Orlando can be
seen putting down the phone |
|
|
ORLANDO
Your movies suck..anyway. |
|
|
The door can be seen slowly opening. The back of a woman
can be seen. She has long blond hair and is very tall.
REVEAL ELLE MAC PHERSON |
|
Orlando turns around and is shocked by who is standing in
front of him. |
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh my God!! You're..you're
you're.. |
|
|
24.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Elle Mac Pherson. Who was that on
the phone? He sounded really
really mad. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh..no one that you would know.
So, what brings you here? I mean
how can I help you? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Is Jacques around? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(star struck)
Ah...ah..I think he is out showing
a house, but maybe I can help you? |
|
|
Elle looks to Orlando and flashes her puppy dog eyes, which
makes Orlando melt |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Darn..he was suppose to show me
that house that I fell in love
with. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Tell me which house you want, and
I can show you it...if you like. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Well, it was a small cottage..in
the woods..far away from anyone,
and it had a really big pool. I
love to sunbath, and I'm so shy. |
|
|
Orlando is trying everything in his power to keep cool. |
|
|
ORLANDO
Well, I have keys...I can show you |
|
|
Elle flashes a seductive smile towards Orlando, and proceeds
to swirl his tie with her fingers |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Are you an agent? |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
That's funny, because I never have
seen you here before. |
|
|
25.
|
|
ORLANDO
(thinking)
Well...that's because I
transferred. Yep,I transferred... |
|
|
Elle gets closer to Orlando. Her lips almost touch his. |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Really? Where were you transferred
from? |
|
|
Orlando is sweating |
|
|
ORLANDO
Ah..from Beverly Hills. I was an
agent to the stars..and well, you
know how celebrities are...They
have attitudes. |
|
|
Elle pushes off Orlando, and steps back a few feet. She is
playing it straight |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Yeah, I can relate. So, you ready
to show me what you got..or what? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yeah, let me go in the back to get
the keys. Don't-go-anywhere..I'll
be right back. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Don't worry..I'll be right here |
|
|
Orlando casually walks to the back room. When he arrives
there he starts to excitingly get freaked out. It is like
he hit the lottery. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to self)
Holy shit!! Elle mother fucking
MacPherson!! I'm going to take the
girl of every man's dreams to a
house that I have no clue where it
is!! For the love of God..get a
grip man. This is the shit that
dreams are made of! |
|
|
Orlando peaks out to see Elle. She can be seen looking in a
mirror and dolling herself up. |
|
After 30 seconds or so, he emerges from the back with keys
in hand |
|
26.
|
|
ORLANDO
Well, good news, I have the keys!
Let's go. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(under breath)
Wait 'til my friends here this |
|
|
Orlando and Elle exit the main door of the office |
|
|
EXT. REAL ESTATE OFFICE - DAY |
|
Orlando is locking the door to the real estate office. Elle
wraps her arms around him, signalling him to hurry up |
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Yeah, are we going in your car? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO (vo)
(to self)
Shit! I can't drive around a
supermodel in my piece of shit
Mazda |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
Actually, my car is in the shop.
Ferrari's are so unreliable. Can
we go in yours? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(pointing to '83
Mazda)
Who's car is that? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Beats me. I wouldn't be caught
dead in that. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Well, i think it's cute |
|
|
Orlando approaches a car that his similar to his. it is
Elle's car, and they both get in it. |
|
|
27.
|
INT. AN EMPTY HOUSE - DAY |
|
Mrs Anderson is showing a house to a COUPLE. MR and MRS
COLEMAN |
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
(to couple)
So, Mr and mrs Coleman what do you
think? Should we sign the papers
now or later? |
|
|
|
MRS COLEMAN
It's exactly what we are looking
for, but we need some time to
think it over. |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
Fine, feel free to walk around the
house some more. I need to make a
phone call. If you suddenly
decide on something I will be
right here, or you can feel free
to call my office |
|
|
Mrs Anderson reaches in her purse for a business card and
hands it to the young couple |
|
|
MR COLEMAN
Thank you, and thank you for all
your help. |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
I hope to hear from you soon |
|
|
The Coleman's exit. Mrs Anderson reaches for her cellphone
and begins to dial the number to the office. The answering
machine picks up. |
|
|
|
|
INT. ELLE'S CAR - NIGHT |
|
The day has turned into dusk, and Orlando and Elle are
having a nice converstaion |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Do you mind if I ask you a
personal question? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
No, go right ahead |
|
|
28.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
What is your ethnicity? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
It's a long story. I just usually
check "other" |
|
|
Elle makes a right turn up a long and twisting driveway.
They arrive to a really big mansion. |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Here we are. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Whoa! I thought you said this
place was small? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(smiling)
It is..silly |
|
|
|
EXT. MANSION - NIGHT |
|
Orlando and Elle are at the front door. Orlando is fumbling
with keys, trying to find the right one. Elle is just
smiling at him. After trying all the keys on his key chain,
he can't open the door. |
|
|
ORLANDO
I think the door is stuck |
|
|
Elle reaches in her pocket and pulls out a set of keys. |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Let me try. |
|
|
Elle inserts a key into the door and unlocks it. |
|
|
ORLANDO
How did you do that? |
|
|
|
|
They both enter the mansion |
|
|
INT. ELLE'S MANSION - NIGHT |

Elle walks in, drops the keys and her purse on an end table.
She takes off her sweater..exposing a tank top underneath.
Walks over to the radio and turns it on to a classical music

station. Orlando has no clue what to make of it. It is
just too good to be true, and he thinks he is dreaming |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Care for some wine? You are old
enough..aren't you? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Well, I'm working. (beat) sure,
why not |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Make yourself comfortable |
|
|
Orlando walks into the living room, and takes a seat on the
couch. A few seconds later Elle walks in holding two
glasses of wine. She hands one to Orlando |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
You're not a very good actor |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Who are you kidding? I'm great! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Sure you are |
|
|
Elle takes a seat next to Orlando, and he moves away. Elle
moves closer |
|
|
ORLANDO
You think I'm the biggest loser,
don't you? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Losers don't get to ride in my
car, get invited to my house and
drink my 100 dollar a bottle wine. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh, I get it!! You're one of those
serial killing supermodels..huh! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
No silly..I just want to be your
friend. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
yeah..right...Elle MacPherson
wants to be my friend |
|
|
30.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Why do you have to be so down on
yourself? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Look at me..I'm a failure in
everything I do. I can't hold
down a job...and as you know I
can't tell the truth..to save my
life. I always wanted to be a
famous actor. I want to be the
guy who drives the Ferrari. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
You do drive the Ferrari..it's in
the shop, remember? |
|
|
They both chuckle |
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Look..if you want to be famous
then just do it! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yeah, that is sure easy for you to
say |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Are you implying that I didn't
have to work hard for what I have? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
God no..What I am trying to say
is..well, since you put it that
way I don't really know what I'm
trying to say |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
What is the one thing, besides
drinking wine with me, that you
really like to do? |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
No silly. What is your passion?
What is the thing that you want to
do the most, and get paid for it? |
|
|
31.
|
|
ORLANDO
Well, I think I really like to
write. |
|
|
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Know! I know that I like to write |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Then write a novel, or a pilot, or
a cookbook. Do what you like to
do! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I actually wrote a movie script.
As a matter of fact, I gave Steven
Spielberg a copy of it yesterday.
He probably threw it away |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Nonsense! He is the nicest
person, and if he likes it he will
give you a call! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I really love to write. It's
funny, because I have a hard time
trying to talk to people. But, it
is so easy to put my thoughts on
paper. Besides.. |
|
|
The phone can be heard ringing |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Hold that thought |
|
|
Elle runs to the phone and answers it |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone)
Hello...yes Mrs Anderson |
|
|
Orlando has a shocked look on his face. He springs from the
couch and runs towards Elle. Elle motions him to sit down
and reassures him. Orlando listens in on one side of the
earpiece. |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON (cont)
(on phone)
Yes, as a matter of fact he is
right here. |
|
|
32.
|
|
ORLANDO
That's it..I'm dead! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone)
Yes, Orlando was so nice to show
me the property, and I will take
it. Yes, your agent Orlando is a
charming person. I will have my
accountant contact you in the
morning. |
|
|
Elle hands phone to Orlando |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(to orlando)
She wants to talk to you |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Hey, Mrs Anderson..how are you
this great evening?. |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
What the hell did you do? How did
you do it! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Oh, you're too kind Mrs Anderson |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
I want to see you first thing in
the morning!! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yep, sure thing..ok you take care
now..I gotta run..bye |
|
|
Orlando hangs up the phone |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
That sweet and gracious woman.. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Well, I have to call it a night. I
have an early shoot in the
morning, but I have a little
surprise for you |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Surprise? What kind of surprise? |
|
|
33.
|
Elle displays an ear to ear smile |
|
|
INT. DAN'S HOUSE - NIGHT |
|
Dan and Steve are doing the usual thing--drinking beer's and
talking trash |
|
|
STEVE
(to Dan)
You hear from Orlando? |
|
|
|
DAN
He's working at my mom's office |
|
|
|
STEVE
Oh shit! Watch out. |
|
|
|
DAN
I don't think my mom is going to
fire him. All he has to do is to
answer the phone. How hard is
that? |
|
|
|
STEVE
Bet you 10 bucks he gets fired |
|
|
|
DAN
You already owe me 10 |
|
|
|
STEVE
Fine..double or nothing |
|
|
Mrs Anderson storms in the house excited! |
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
Dan! You have some real idiots for
friends!! You ever ask me to hook
one of your friends with a job
again, I will kick your ass |
|
|
|
STEVE
(to Dan)
Pay up bitch! |
|
|
|
DAN
How did he screw up...this time? |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
He actually didn't screwup..I mean
he lied to a customer, but we all
do that. He just sold one of my
million dollar listing's to Elle

DAN

You were saying? |
|
|
|
INT. ELLE'S GARAGE - NIGHT |
|
Elle leads Orlando into her garage to unveil his surprise.
There is a car with a car cover over it. The bottom of the
cover shows to be a red car underneath it. |
|
|
ORLANDO
You know, when you said you had a
surprise for me I didn't have a
garage in mind |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
I'm never here, and I never get to
enjoy some of my toys...and since
your Ferrari is in the shop, maybe
you could enjoy mine. |
|
|
Elle takes the car cover off the car to expose a shiny red
1981 Ferrari 308 |
|
|
ORLANDO
Whoa! That's a '81 Ferrari 308
GTSI Quatrovolvo |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
What do you think? Is this
something that you would be caught
dead in? |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
It's yours. take it, all it does
is collect dust |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Why are you so nice to me? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Because I want to be. Now, go
take it for a ride and show off to
your friends |
|
|
Orlando jumps in the car and grips the steering wheel. |
|
35.
|
|
ORLANDO
This is so beautiful. Well, not
as beautiful as you..of course |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Have fun, and feel free to call me
anytime |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(sad)
You mean, this is it? No more of
us hanging out? Because if that's
the case you can keep the car |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(smiling)
Call me |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
When I become famous I will not
forget you |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Sure you won't |
|
|
|
INT. DAN'S HOUSE - DAY |
|
Dan is hanging with Steve. They look like they are ready to
step out of the house |
|
|
DAN
(to Steve)
Where did that clown go, anyway?
It's not like he has a life, or
anything like that. |
|
|
|
STEVE
(to Dan)
Or friends. Come on, let's go |
|
|
|
EXT. DAN'S DRIVEWAY - DAY |
|
Dan and Steve step out of the house and are walking down the
driveway to the street--slowly--while talking trash about
Orlando |
|
|
DAN
I'm sick of this kid...He just
gets on my nerves |
|
|
36.
|
|
STEVE
Yeah, and he's a fucking liar! |
|
|
|
DAN
You noticed that too! |
|
|
|
STEVE
Of course, dude. I mean all these
girls that he claims to have slept
with..or talked to..I mean, have
you ever seen him with a girl? |
|
|
|
DAN
Tell me about it..you think he's
gay? |
|
|
|
STEVE
No..just a fucking liar |
|
|
|
DAN
Dude, why do we even hang around
his ass? |
|
|
|
STEVE
Well, we need someone to laugh
at..right? |
|
|
|
|
Dan and Steve high five each other at the end of the
driveway. They hear a very nice sounding car and both turn
their heads up the street to see what it is. It is Orlando
driving down the street in his shiny red Ferrari. He comes
to a screeching stop in front of Dan and Steve. |
|
|
ORLANDO
What do you guys think? |
|
|
|
DAN
Holy shit! Where did you steal
this thing? |
|
|
Steve has a look of jealousy on his face, and decides to
find a way out |
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
Nice car bro. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Steve)
You wanna ride, or what? |
|
|
37.
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
Actually, I got to go. I'll see
you guys around |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Steve)
You need a ride? |
|
|
|
STEVE
Nah, I'm all set. later guys |
|
|
Steve EXITS |
|
|
DAN
(to Orlando)
Screw him anyway..this car is a
two seater |
|
|
Dan hops into the passenger seat like a fat kid in a candy
store. Orlando peels out, and leaves Steve in a dust cloud |
|
|
INT. FERRARI - DAY |
|
Orlando driving and Dan in the passenger seat |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Dan)
My friend..you are driving in the
best automobile ever made. Oh,
and how do the "Rich, Corinthian
leather" seats feel on your fat
ass? |
|
|
|
DAN
Who's car is this?...really? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Dude, if I told you, you would
never believe me. |
|
|
|
DAN
You're not a liar..how did you get
this car? (beat) Look..did you
just see that hot girl look at
us!? Look, there's another..and |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
another and another and another..I

DAN
The chicks man...how are we to
pick them up if we don't talk to
them? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
You'll do the talking? |
|
|
|
DAN
Fuck yeah...pull over. I want that
one! |
|
|
Orlando spins the car around in a U-Turn and pulls over to a
couple of hot girls |
|
|
|
|
FIRST GIRL
Wow, is this your car? |
|
|
|
|
Orlando looks over to the second girl. He recognizes her as
Sheila..the girl he talked to the other day after the
casting call |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to second girl)
Hey..I remember you. You're
Sheila..from the other day..right? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
Yeah, hi..I didn't remember you
driving this car, though...How
have you been? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I'm doing good. How about you? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
Well, your future wife is doing
really good |

You girls wanna go for a ride? |

|
|
|
|
|

FIRST GIRL
But, there is no room |
|
|
|
SHEILA
Sit on their lap, stoopid |
|
|
The two girls hop in the car and awkwardly sit on Dan and
Orlando's lap |
|
|
EXT. GRASSY FIELD - DAY |
|
Dan and the first girl are laying on the grass, rolling
around and getting frisky. Orlando and Sheila are sitting
on a big rock. Dan and the girl look at each other and
exchange a long kiss |
|
|
SHEILA
(to Orlando)
Look at those two |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Sheila)
Yeah, they're going at it pretty
heavy |
|
|
|
SHEILA
(to Orlando)
So gross! |

ORLANDO

What? You jealous? |

SHEILA
No! (beat) What do you look for in

ORLANDO
I don't know. Someone that I can
cuddle up with. I look for a girl
that I can be upfront and honest
with. I just haven't been able to
find the "one", but I'm still
looking |
|
|
Sheila starts laughing hysterically, Dan notices and stops
making out with the girl. He turns to Orlando and Sheila
for a comment |
|
|
DAN
(to Orlando and
Sheila)
Keep it down over there! We're
trying to make out! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Sheila)
What are you laughing for!? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
For starters..you're a guy, and
guys don't cuddle. And guys don't
look for the "one"...more like the
one right now. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Sheila)
I'm dead serious. I'm looking for
the one. I don't have room in my
life for a slut. I have my
priorities, and lofty goals. |
|
|
|
SHEILA
Yeah, it seems like you're doing
alright for yourself |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
There is always room to do better.
(beat) I really want to be an
actor or writer, and I want to get
out of this hell hole of a State. |
|
|
|
SHEILA
Hey, I love Rhode Island. There
is so much to do here, and summers
are wonderful |
|
|
41.
|
|
ORLANDO
Do you want to get married? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
(shocked)
What? We're not even going out! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(flustered)
No...not marry me..Do you want to
get married..in the future? |
|
|
|
SHEILA
Oh...Of course I do. What girl
doesn't want to get married? |
|
|
Sheila makes an attempt to hug Orlando. He welcomes her
advance and they embrace. |
|
|
SHEILA
Is this what you want? |
|
|
|
|
|
SHEILA
Did you bring some protection? |
|
|
|
INT. ORLANDO'S BEDROOM - DAY |
|
Orlando is sound asleep in his bed--shirtless, and tangled
up in two blankets. The alarm radio goes off and he reaches
to shut it off. Music stops and a radio announcer comes on |
|
|
RADIO ANNOUNCER
Rise and shine campers. It's 6:30
and here are your morning
headlines. Topping our news,
talks are under way for the first
ever world peace summit in Turkey.
It is reported that the President
is close to getting both sides to
signing a deal. In local news,
Steven Spielberg has just wrapped
up shooting his new picture, that
was entirely filmed right here in
Rhode Island. The film is set to
be released in the fall, titled
"Collosal Endeavors" Starring
Samuel Jackson and Elle
MacPherson. The |
|
|
42.
|
Orlando opens his eyes! |
|
|
RADIO ANNOUNCER (cont)
movie will undoubtedly be a
smashing success. For 94 HJY
news, this is Ken Fang. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Elle?..Elle is in the movie?
but... |
|
|
The phone rings. Orlando jumps out of bed to pick it up. It
is revealed that it's Steven Spielberg on the other line |
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone with
Steven Spielberg)
hello...you're putting me
on..right? Dan..Steve..this isn't
funny |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
(on phone with
Orlando)
No, I am not putting you on. This
is Steven Spielberg |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone with
Steven Spielberg)
I'm having a dream..right? |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
(chuckling)
No, I'm afraid not. I am calling
to tell you that I went over your
script, and I'm impressed. |
|
|
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
Yes I am, but keep in mind that it
needs some work. But there is a
story in there. I'm leaving for
Los Angeles and would love it if
we can get together and talk. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yeah, sure (beat) pen? Sure I have
a pen |
|
|
43.
|
Orlando runs around the room looking for a pen. He finds
one on the nightstand, and finds an overdue utility bill to
write on |
|
|
ORLANDO (cont)
Ok, yep..uh huh 1135 or 1153? Ok
1135. I'm so excited Mr
Spielberg. I promise I won't let
you down. I owe you big time! |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
Ha! You don't owe me a thing--yet.
I have to say that I like the
story, but the plot is a tad bit
outrageous. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yeah, I know..it is a wee bit
outrageous..but I can change it if
you want? |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
I'll see you in a few days,
Orlando |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Sure..see you then..bye |
|
|
Orlando hangs up the phone and is running around the room,
playing air guitar and chanting |
|
|
ORLANDO
(Singing)
I'm going to Hollywood..I'm going
to Hollywood..gonna make a
movie...with..shit, what rhymes
with Spielberg? (beat) What am I
going to wear? |
|
|
|
EXT. DAN'S DRIVEWAY - DAY |
|
Dan is outside washing his car. Orlando pulls up in the
Ferrari. The radio is blaring loudly--playing a Jimi
Hendrix tune. Orlando pulls in the driveway |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Dan)
While you're at it, you can wash
my car. |
|
|
|
|
44.
|
|
ORLANDO
Your mother isn't home, is she? |
|
|
Mrs. Anderson runs out of the house |
|
|
ORLANDO
(under breath)
Oh Shit |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
(to Orlando)
Are you coming in to work today? I
have a surprise for you |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Mrs Anderson)
Surprise? for me? You mean I'm not
in trouble? |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
Trouble? non sense, suga. Well, I
hate to spoil the surprise, but oh
well..what the heck. What do you
think about getting your real
estate license? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Well...that is really great but.. |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Orlando)
Did my mother tell you that Elle
stopped by with one huge mother
fucking check? |
|
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
(to Dan)
Watch your mouth! You know you're
not allowed to curse, and as long
as your living under my roof! |
|
|
Mrs. Anderson turns to Orlando |
|
|
MRS ANDERSON (cont)
(to Orlando)
So, what do you say? Come work for
me |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Actually..I can't. I just got the
opportunity of a lifetime. I got a
call from Steven Spielberg today
and I'm leaving for Hollywood |
|
|
45.
|
|
MRS ANDERSON
Good for you, doll..but, Hollywood
isn't for nice people like you.
They will eat you up, besides you
have a knack for Real Estate..and
you have people skills. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Well, I'll call you if this plan
fails, but i have to take a
chance. The window of opportunity
is only open for a short time. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Dan)
What's the matter dude? You're
quiet. Aren't you happy for me? |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Orlando)
Sure bro |
|
|
Mrs Anderson exits to the inside of the house |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Dan)
Dude, so what's up with your girl?
You guys were going at it pretty
heavy! |
|
|
Dan shoves Orlando |
|
|
DAN
Why do you gotta bust my balls?
You got the car. You got some
fucking supermodel..although, I
have no fucking idea how you got
her. Does she know you're a
fucking liar? huh? Does she know
that you're a fucking piece of
shit? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Dude, what the fuck is your
problem? I thought we were
friends? |
|
|
|
DAN
Fuck you, fuck your car and fuck
yourself in Hollywood. You're just
a fucking nigger. Get the fuck out
of my house |
|
|
46.
|
Dan slams a wet sponge on the ground and walks up the
driveway to his house. Upon approaching the door he slams
it..popping out the screen. Orlando is standing there in
disbelief. He grabs the garden hose and proceeds to wash
off the soap from Dan's car. A phone can be heard ringing
inside the Ferrari. Orlando drops the hose and heads for
the car, jumping in, starting it up, putting the car in
reverse and picking up the phone |
|
|
INT. FERRARI - DAY |
|
Orlando is on the car phone with Elle |
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone with
Orlando)
I heard, and congratulations! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Thanks, and why didn't you tell
me!? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone with
Orlando)
You didn't ask! So, are you happy? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
I don't know what to think
anymore. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone with
Orlando)
Stop this nonsense. You got what
you want, now go and get it |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
I know, but I just got into a
fight with Dan..He just snapped at
me for no reason at all |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone with
orlando)
Jealously can do it. Believe me,
I know. So, when are you coming to

47.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON (cont'd)
L.A.? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Well, I might as well leave
tonight. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone with
Orlando)
You have a place to stay? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
You know..good question. I
haven't thought of that |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone with
Orlando)
Good! You're staying with me |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
What? I don't know if I can take
all the supermodel's going in and
out of your place. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone)
Don't be silly! I'll see you when
you get here. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Elle, can I ask you a question? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone with
Orlando)
Sure |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Is there anything going on with
you and Letterman? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone)
God! I wish! |
|
|
48.
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
I'm just asking because I don't
want my butt to get kicked in |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone)
Oh please! Hurry up, I need
someone to apply some suntan
lotion on my back |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
yeah yeah yeah. Ciao baby |
|
|
Orlando hangs up the phone, and has a smile from ear to ear
on his face. He upshifts the car and takes off! |
|
|
EXT. LAX - DAY |
|
Orlando steps off the plane, makes his way to the baggage
carousel. Then he heads to the main door to get a Taxi, but
sees a man in a chauffeurs outfit holding a sign that reads
ORLANDO REMINGTON. He approaches the LIMO DRIVER |
|
|
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
Good afternoon. I will be your
driver. May I help you with your
bags sir? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
No..I got 'em...thanks |
|
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
If you will follow me sir, I'll
take you to the car |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Where are we going, anyway? |
|
|
|
INT. LIMO - DAY |
|
Orlando is sitting comfortably in the back seat. He is
excited and starts to go through draws and the cooler. He
catches something at the corner of his eye. He turns and
sees a weirdo freek out the window of the car. He starts to
laugh |
|
49.
|
|
ORLANDO
(To Limo Driver)
Do all the people look like freaks
here? |
|
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
(to Orlando)
Some people are, but not most.
(beat) Is this your first time
here, sir? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yes, this is my first time in
California |
|
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
What took you so long? I think you
will love it here. Los Angeles is
full of diversity and there is
always something to do..not to
mention the sunny weather..and las
chicas |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I would've been here earlier, but
I was afraid that everybody in
California was gay. I'm not
saying that gay people are bad or
anything. I'm just.. |
|
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
(to Orlando)
I'm not gay, sir. Me gusta las
chicas |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I can't believe I said that. It's
not like me to say stuff like
that. I mean, well, I swear a lot
but that's because..Oh, I don't
know. |
|
|
The driver turns right and stops in front of a driveway. He
rolls down the window and speaks into an intercom |
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
Mr. Orlando Remington is here |
|
|
A buzzer sounds, gate opens and a very big mansion is
exposed. Orlando is looking in amazement. The driver
proceeds up the 1/4 mile long driveway |
|
50.
|
|
ORLANDO
(To Limo Driver)
Man, do all the houses look like
this? |
|
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
Only if you're filthy rich |
|
|
|
|
The driver reaches the front of the huge mansion. |
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
We're here, sir |
|
|
The Driver steps out of the car and opens the door for
Orlando. |
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
We are here, sir. Hope you enjoy
the sites |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
This is Elle's house, isn't it? |
|
|
|
LIMO DRIVER
That is correct sir |
|
|
Orlando walks up to the door. He pulls a can of Binaca from
his jacket..gives a couple squirts in his mouth, turns the
door know and lets himself in. |
|
|
INT. ELLE'S LA MANSION - DAY |
|
Orlando walks in, drops his jacket to the floor. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(shouting)
Honey, I'm home! Lock up the kids |
|
|
Orlando looks around the house, and he can't find anyone.
However, he looks outside the window into the back yard. He
sees some activity from the enormous pool. |
|
|
EXT. ELLE'S POOL - DAY |
|
There is a man floating on a rubber tube, wearing a cowboy
hat. Orlando looks at the guy and realizes it's PAULY SHORE |
|
51.
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Pauly)
You're Pauly Shore! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
PAULY SHORE
Don't mind me. I'm just
recuperating. |
|
|
|
|
|
PAULY SHORE
From one of my many cancelled tv
shows. Hey, it's what we do. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Why don't you try getting a
job..dude? |
|
|
|
PAULY SHORE
You know how hard it is to get a
job around here?..I'm type casted,
bro. |
|
|
|
|
|
PAULY SHORE
I'll have you know, I'm not the
dumbass I play in the movies. I
have feelings you know, and I am
smart too. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
So, how do you know Elle anyway? |
|
|
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yeah..Elle..you know Elle
MacPherson..smoking hot supermodel
who likes to make friends with
simpletons and give them a Ferrari
and a break in showbiz?? That Elle |
|
|
52.
|
|
PAULY SHORE
Ohhhhhhh. (break) Yeah, I don't

ORLANDO
Then what the hell are you doing
in her house? |
|

from an umbrella glass |
|
|
ROBERT DOWNEY JR
(to Orlando)
Who are you, and what are you
doing in my house? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Your house? I was told this was
Elle's house |
|
|
|
ROBERT DOWNEY JR
You mean this isn't my house? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I don't think so buddy. |
|
|
|
ROBERT DOWNEY JR
Shit! I did it again. Come on
Pauly..let's go |
|
|
|
PAULY SHORE
Do we have to? |
|
|
|
ROBERT DOWNEY JR
Yeah, you can play with all the
rubber duckies you want at my
house (beat) just as soon as I
find it |
|
|
Robert Downey Jr and Pauly Shore exit |
|
53.
|
|
ORLANDO
I can't believe I just met the
Ironman! |
|
|
Elle walks in, wearing a purple one piece swimsuit and silk
robe |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Hello darling. How was the trip? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Do you know that Pauly Shore and
Robert Downey Jr were here hanging
around in your pool? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
They're always here. Hey, you want
to go to a party? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
You have two strangers in this
huge house and you don't care? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Relax. They are harmless. So, you
want to go to the party with moi? |

INT. HOLLYWOOD PARTY - NIGHT |

Orlando and Elle enter the party. All the A list celebs are
there. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
Look! That's Sandra Bullock! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Go and introduce yourself. She's
single you know |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yeah, but what would she want with
a normal guy? |
|
|
54.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
She's all alone. Look, she looks
uncomfortable. Go make your move |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Maybe later, but right now I want
to dance. Will you dance with me? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
I would love to |
|
|
They begin to dance to Whitney Houston's "I wanna dance with
somebody". They are a hit, and curious celebs start to ask
who the guy is with Elle. JENNIFER ANISTON AND COURTNEY COX
are looking at Orlando and Elle |
|
|
JENNIFER ANISTON
(To Courtney Cox)
Who is that guy with Elle? |
|
|
|
COURTNEY COX
(to Jennifer

I don't know, but he is sexy |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
Why is everyone looking at us? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(to Orlando)
Because, you are dancing with me! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
No, it's because I'm dancing with
you |
|
|
Music changes to a slow song, "Lady in red". Elle looks over
to Sandra and grabs Orlando close and starts to slowdance
with him. Grinding him. |
|
|
ORLANDO
What are you doing? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
We mustn't disappoint our fans |
|
|

ORLANDO
Ok, but be gentle...I'm sensitive |

They both laugh
FIVE MINUTES LATER

ELLE MAC PHERSON

ORLANDO
Alright. One bottled water coming

|

Orlando makes his way over to the bar. SANDRA BULLOCK is
seated, looking uncomfortable. The BARTENDER is Isaac from
the "Love Boat" |
|
|
BARTENDER
(to Orlando)
What'll you have? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
A bottled water and a Rolling Rock |

JENNIFER ANISTON
(To Courtney Cox)
I know! First Elle, now Sandra.
Who does he think he is? |
|
|
back at the bar |
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(to Orlando)
I'm surprised. You don't have a
pitch. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(confused)
Pitch? |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
You don't know what a pitch is?
How long have you been in L.A.? |
|
|
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Wow! Alright..a pitch. Any time
you're at a party, and you're

SANDRA BULLOCK
No. I just wanted to have you tell

Sandra taps Orlando's beer bottle.
Elle walks over to the two |
|
|
ORLANDO

Oh Elle. I'd like to introduce you
to Sandra. Sandra this is Elle.
OH! She is a supermodel that

SANDRA BULLOCK

Sandra turns red |
|

ORLANDO
Don't be. As a matter of fact, I
wanted to talk to you the minute I
walked in |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Why didn't you?? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I figured..that maybe..you might |

SANDRA BULLOCK
be taken? Nope. I'm single! |

ORLANDO
You can complete my sentence..wow |

JENNIFER ANISTON
I wonder if he has a part for

59.

ELLE MAC PHERSON
You should ask him |

JENNIFER ANISTON
Oh, I don't want to bother him. He

ORLANDO
(to Sandra)
Yeah, so I handed Steven Spielberg
my script and I felt like just a
f-ing loser. I mean--he is
Spielberg, right? Well, he called
me. He said that he liked my work
and flew me over here. We're
suppose to meet tomorrow. |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
That is so cool. You don't here
stories like that anymore. What
is this world coming to? |

ORLANDO
Well, it was really nice to talk

Elle grabs Orlando by the arms and they walk off. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
What was that all about? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
I think they liked you! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
but, they don't even know me!! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Yes they do |
|
|
|
|
They approach the foyer and stop. |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(to Orlando)
On the count of 3 we're going to
run as fast as we can towards the
door. |
|
|
|
|
Elle grabs Orlando's hand |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
1...2...3 |
|
|
They make a run towards the door. Elle grabs hold of the
door knob and opens the door to paparazzi..a mob of
paparazzi |
|
|
|
They make their way through the mob and into a limo |
|
|
62.
|
INT. LIMO - NIGHT |
|
Orlando and Elle get into the limo fighting off the
paparazzi. the car is surrounded by flashing lights. |
|
|
ORLANDO
Are they always like this? What am
i saying..of course they are
always like this! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Get used to it. You are on your

idea..Why don't we conserve
water.. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Nice try. You get the downstairs
bathroom. Goodnight |
|
|
|
|
Elle walks up the stairs |
|
|
ORLANDO
Hey Elle, can you tuck me in? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(smiling)
Good night |
|
|
THREE HOURS LATER. Orlando is in bed, sound asleep. He
hears a faint noise and wakes up. |
|
63.
|
|
|
Orlando gets out of bed and heads to the window where he
thinks the noise is coming from. He sees a man with a
camera hiding in the bushes. He is snapping pictures of the
residence. Orlando frantically runs around to find Elle. He
walks out into the hall. He opens a few doors trying to
find Elle's bedroom. He opens a door and hears her snoring.
He walks in and sees that she is sleeping in the nude. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(Holding crotch)
Whoa! not now woody..not now |
|
|
Elle wakes up |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Orlando? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
Elle, there is a guy with a camera
in the bushes!! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
What time is it? |
|
|
|
|
Elle gets out of bed. She is nude. Orlando has the look of
love |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
What's the matter? Never saw a
naked woman before? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I never saw YOU naked before! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON

|
|
|
|
Orlando leads Elle to his bedroom, takes her to the window
and points to the guy |
|
|
ORLANDO
(pointing)
There he is |
|
|
64.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Wanna have a little fun with this
guy? |
|
|
|
|
Elle turns on the lights, rips off Orlando's pajama top,
grabs him by the back of the head and passionately kisses
him--while in the nude. |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
There! So, how was it? Everything
you expected? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Do me a favor..pinch me |
|
|
Elle squeezes Orlando's crotch |
|
|
ORLANDO
(high pitched
voice)
Ok, this is not a dream |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Get dressed, you're going to be
late |
|
|
Elle walks out |
|
|
INT. ELLE'S BEDROOM - DAY |
|
Elle is doing her hair with a curling iron, and Orlando
walks in wearing a very nice black suit |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(to Orlando)
Look at you! Quite the devilishly
handsome man. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
It's not me...it's Armani |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
You nervous? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Not really. Why? Should I be? |
|
|
65.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
I'll let you in on a little
secret. I used to be very nervous
before every gig or shoot. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Why? I mean..you're the hottest
girl in the world! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Beauty is in the mind of the
beholder...and I often feel
bloated |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Could I ask you a question? |
|
|
Elle puts down curling iron |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
You look like you have some bad
news or something. Here take a
seat |
|
|
Orlando sits on the bed next to Elle |
|
|
ORLANDO
Why me? I mean..why are you so
nice to me? You're, by far, the
most attractive woman in the
world. You're talented,
successful...can get anyone ..so,
why are you so nice to me? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Why not? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
No..seriously. If I didn't say
thank you..I am very
thankful..but, you're really doing
a number on me..on my heart. I
think I'm in..I think I'm in... |
|
|
Elle puts her finger on his lips, and gives him a peck on
the cheek |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON

|
|
Spielberg hangs up the phone |
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
(cont)
I don''t want you to think I'm
brushing you off. I'm at the tail
end of a project, so I apologize
if I cut you off for the
phone--Now--Are you excited? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Absolutely. And thank you so very
much for giving me this great
opportunity. I also understand
that you're a busy guy. |
|
|
Spielberg pulls out script from top drawer and holds it |
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
Alright, I gave it a brief read
over. And, I like it. In fact,
I'm thinking of making it into a
sitcom. And, I have some
prospective buyers. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Really? Great, so what do you need
from me? |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
I made a few corrections. Look
through it and send me the second
draft. I'll need it ASAP. We
only have a couple weeks until
pilot season |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Sure, I can have it to you
tomorrow if you want. |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
That would be good, but take a
couple days. I really want a good
script, and you have a lot of
talent. Now, I can forward the
details to your agent if you want |
|
|
68.
|
|
ORLANDO
Ah..I will tell him. |
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
Very well, then. So..see you in a
couple days? |
|
|
|
|
|
STEVEN SPIELBERG

|
|
Orlando stands up and shakes hands with Steven |
|
|
ORLANDO
Thank you Steven for everything |
|
|
Orlando walks out of the office into the reception area,
waves good bye to the receptionist and heads to the door.
Before he exits he gets on the cellphone |
|
|
ORLANDO
(on cellphone)
Hey....I need an agent! |
|
|
Orlando hangs up cellphone and walks out the door |
|
|
EXT. STREET - DAY |
|
Orlando is walking down the street looking at a piece of
paper, then looking at the buildings. He stops at a
building and walks inside. The building has the words
"Devlin Talent Agency" written on the door |
|
|
INT. DEVLIN TALENT AGENCY - DAY |
|
There are 5 people in the office. They are fighting with
the receptionist to get a meeting with the agent. Orlando
approaches the desk and the receptionist. |
|
|
RECEPTIONIST
I'm sorry, but Mr Devlin is not
available at the moment. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
My name is Orlando. I was told
to... |
|
|
69.
|
|
RECEPTIONIST
(to Orlando)
Yes, Mr Devlin will see you |
|
|
|
|
The 5 people are fighting and shouting with the
receptionist. Orlando walks over them, and to the door. He
knocks and a voice says to enter. Orlando walks into Mr.
MARTY DEVLIN's office. He is one of the top celebrity
agents in Hollywood |
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
Orlando! I heard such good things
about you. Have a seat. Care for
some Cappuccino? |
|
|
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
You sure? 'cause I got this
machine sent to me from my buddy
George Clooney while he was in
Italy. He has an amazing Villa
there, you know. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I'm all set, really |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
Suit yourself. Alright, let's get
down to business. A friend of
Elle's is a friend of mine, and
let me tell ya...I've made her so
much money over the years. And,
that is what I'm gonna do to you.
As your agent, it's gonna be you
against the world..kid. We're
gonna get a tv show, movie, your
face plastered on the side of a
bus..cereal boxes. The skies the
limit. You're good looking (beat)
care for a breath mint? |
|
|
Hands Orlando some Altoids |
|
|
ORLANDO
I'm all set. You seem pretty
confident. You think this whole
"fame" and money thing is gonna
happen? |
|
|
70.
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
I don't think it...I know it.
(reaches for newspaper)
Look at this shit. Did you see
this shit yet? |
|
|
Newspaper has a picture of Elle and Orlando in a steamy
embrace and kiss |
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
(reading from
paper)
"Elle MacPherson in passionate
liplock with new boytoy" You and
Elle in a steamy embrace..this
shit is golden. We're gonna make
some money off of this shit. This
stuff doesn't just fall into your
lap without exploiting it...know
what I mean? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Dude, that was done as a gag. Elle
and I caught a photog in the
bushes. It was just fun |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
Come on kid, you think anyone is
gonna believe that? Besides, that
does not sell newspapers. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
2 days in L.A. and I already made
the tabloids |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
Hell yeah you did! Alright, so
tell me what your plans are |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I don't get it. What do you mean? |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
Do I have to spell it out for you?
What are your dreams, aspirations,
goals in life? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh! Well, I just want to be a
writer. Maybe be an actor and
later on a director |
|
|
71.
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
Oh! That reminds me of a
joke..What do you call an out of
work actor? |
|
|
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
a Director!! |
|
|
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
I don't get it either. I heard it
at a party, and everyone was
laughing. Maybe I missed a few
words. I'm not a comedian. I'm
an agent. |
|
|
Marvin gets handed an envelope from a bike messenger |
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
Oh oh oh. Can this be..what I
think it is... |
|
|
Marvin opens up the envelope and pulls out a check. He
briefly looks at it and slides it over to Orlando |
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
You know what I love about this
job? Money!! Lot's and lot's of
money!! Take a look and tell me
what you think |
|
|
Orlando is holding the check with his eyeballs bulging and
jaw dropping |
|
|
ORLANDO
I think someone made a
mistake....I have never seen a
check with all those zero's in it. |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
You think that's big? That is
nothing. Screenwriters get 50
thousand to 150 thousand for a
script. Actors..they get that per
hour. Let's get this deal done
and we'll get you an acting gig. |
|
|
72.
|
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
I don't think anything kid...I
know. You're gonna be the next
big thing. I'm gonna get your ass
on Oprah's couch! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh..I love that bitch |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
And, that bitch is gonna love you!
So, welcome to Hollywood kid. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I know this might come off as a
girl thing, but I feel like going
shopping |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
You go out and have some fun. Buy
anything and everything, the money
will be flowing |
|
|
Orlando gets up and shakes Marvin's hand. Marvin hands him
a cigar, and orlando exits |
|
|
INT. ELLE'S MANSION - DAY |
|
Orlando walks in and Elle is laying by the pool |
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh, Lucy..I'm home! |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
I'm in the pool |
|
|
He makes his way over to the pool |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
You in the mood for shopping? |
|
|
|
EXT. RODEO DRIVE - DAY |
|
Orlando and Elle can be seen exiting a store holding several
bags |
|
73.
|
|
ORLANDO
(turning to Elle)
There's one more stop |
|
|
|
INT. TIFFANY'S JEWELERS - DAY |
|
Orlando and Elle walk in, and they are greeted by a sales
associate |
|
|
SALES ASSOCIATE
Good afternoon, you two. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Good afternoon..we would like to
buy everything in the store. ha!
Actually, I am looking for a gift
for a very special lady |
|
|
|
SALES ASSOCIATE
Anything special?..necklace,
broach, tennis
bracelet..engagement ring? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(turning to Elle)
What do women like? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Diamonds! diamonds! diamonds! Me?
Now, I prefer necklaces |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Sales
Associate)
You heard the lady. Take me to
your necklaces! ha! |
|
|
The sales associate walks over to the other end of the store
where there are several high priced necklaces. Orlando and
Elle are in front of the case and Elle see's something she
likes. Orlando is quick to notice |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
You see something you like? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Moi? Don't get any ideas. I am
happy with the jewelry I have |
|
|
Orlando points to the necklace that he caught Elle looking
at |
|
74.
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Sales
Associate)
Can I see that one? |
|
|
|
SALES ASSOCIATE
You have great taste. We just got
that in this morning. It would
make the perfect gift |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Hmm..I don't know. I'm not good
at picking out jewelry. (turning
to Elle) Try it on. I need to see
what it looks like |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Don't be silly. I'm not going to
try it on. That thing looks
awfully expensive! |
|
|
Orlando takes hold of the necklace and places it on Elle's
neck, careful to make sure her hair doesn't get caught in
the clasp. He then grabs a mirror and places it in front of
Elle. She is close to tears when she sees it on her |
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
It's so beautiful |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
There is something I have been
meaning to tell you. I was a
complete failure before I met you.
I was pretty much fired from
every job I had. I didn't have
any friends that cared for me, and
women...But, you came along. I
still don't have a clue why you
wanted to be my friend..or give me
a fancy car. But, thank you. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
...and, I can see Russia from my
house. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(laughing)
What's that suppose to mean! |
|
|
75.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Fairy tales and pixy dust! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Sales
Associate)
I'll take the necklace |
|
|
The sales associate discreetly shows Orlando the
pricetag....it reads $47,590. Orlando doesn't even flinch,
instead he reaches in his back pocket for his wallet and
pulls out his credit card |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
You hungry? My treat |
|
|
|
INT. SPAGO - NIGHT |
|
Orlando and Elle are sitting in a dimly-lit romantic booth.
There are so many celebrities around. Michael Douglas,
Charlie Sheen, Alec Baldwin. |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
You know..I can get used to being
rich |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Well, you keep spending your money
like that you won't |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Nothing but the best for you! |
|
|
Sandra Bullock walks in |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Look, your girl just walked in |
|
|
|
|
Sandra waves and makes her way over |
|
|
|
|
|
76.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON

SANDRA BULLOCK
(to Elle)
Oh my! I do love that necklace! |

ELLE MAC PHERSON

|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(to Orlando)
Well, look at you (beat) You guys
see the front page of the
Enquirer? You're both plastered
all over it |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yeah, yeah. It was all her idea |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(to Orlando)
You liked it |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
So Sandra. What's going on? |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Oh..not much..just wondering why
my phone hasn't rang in a few
days..you know anything about
that..buster! (smiles) |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Look..isn't that Ellen? |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
She comes in all the time. Let me
go and say hi |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
We should see more of each other |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
You have my number..call me |
|
|
Sandra exits. Elle looks at Orlando |
|
|
|
77.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
I think she likes you... |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Didn't your mother ever tell you
not to argue with a woman? We
know things..you know |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
You're wrong on this, besides I
have my eyes on another woman |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Oh really? Do tell, Playboy |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
You have any plans for tonight? |
|
|
Orlando displays a flirtatious smile |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Don't laugh...but, I have a date |
|
|
Orlando loses smile, then quickly tries to pretend like he
is happy |
|
|
ORLANDO
Great..I'm so happy for you.
Anybody famous? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
A proper woman doesn't kiss and
tell |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Please tell me you didn't kiss
him. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
No! What's that look for? You look
all sad. Jealous? |
|
|
78.
|
|
ORLANDO
No..I just miss the Ferrari. I'm
getting the car shipped over here.
Should be here any day soon |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
That's nice..really it is. I am
happy for you..and your car..your
teeny weeny car |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
You know that I wanted to be the
guy who took you out on a date.
Take you out so I can show you off
to everyone, but it's ok. I'll go
out by myself...I'll be fine. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Hell-oo. You poor baby. You're
not too bright are you? What do
you call this? I consider this a
date. |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Yes! Now I must use the ladies
room and you can take care of the
bill :) |
|
|
Elle get's up, kisses Orlando on the cheek and heads to the
Ladies room |

Orlando is on the couch eating popcorn and watching
television. Elle walks down the grand staircase wearing an
amazing black dress with the necklace that Orlando gave her |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
How do I look? |
|
|
Orlando has a look of amazement on his face. |
|
|
ORLANDO
Wow! You look like a
supermodel...wait..you are a
supermodel, well you know what I
mean |
|
|
79.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
So, I take it that you like? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
You look really good and all, but
do you have to be that revealing? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
What's wrong with my dress!? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Well..your boobs look like they
are ready to pop out, and you know
the old saying..Why give out the
milk when you can have the
cow..Something like that |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
You're calling me a cow???????? I
hate you! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I love you too. Just be home
before midnight |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Don't wait up for me. I'll be
dancing..I really love to dance |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Can you at least put on a jacket?
I don't want you to catch a cold |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
You're jealous!! I love it. Come
over here and give me a kiss |
|
|
Elle runs over to Orlando and kisses him on the cheek |
|
|
ORLANDO
Damn! You smell so good |
|
|
|
|
Elle walks out the door. A few seconds later Orlando looks
out the window to see Elle get into her car |
|
|
ORLANDO
I still can't believe this shit is
happening to me. This is the
perfect dream life |
|
|
80.
|
The phone rings. Orlando slowly walks over to it and picks
it up |
|
|
|
Sandra Bullock is on the phone |
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(on phone)
Orlando? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Yeah, who's this? |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(on phone)
It's Sandra..Sandra Bullock. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Hey Sandra. How are you? |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(on phone)
I hope you don't mind me calling
you. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
I don't mind, but how did you get
Elle's number? |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(on phone)
You don't know? We know every
single persons phone number in
Hollywood |
|
|
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
That..was..a joke |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Yeah, I knew that. I meant to
laugh |
|
|
81.
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(on phone)
There is actually a reason I
called, and I'm glad you answered
the phone. I was wondering..I
have this premiere to go to and my
date cancelled..so I was wond... |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Oh my God!! I would love to go
with you! |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(on phone)
You sure? You don't have to go
with me if you don't want to..or
if Elle doesn't want you too. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
I would be honored to go, and Elle
and I are just friends |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(on phone)
Don't get mad, but you think you
can be ready in an hour? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
Absolutely! |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(on phone)
Great, I will send a car for you |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Great! I'll see you then |
|
|
Orlando hangs up the phone and jumps around, all over the
room chanting "She likes me, she likes me, she likes me"
THIRTY MINUTES LATER
the doorbell rings. He quickly runs down the stairs to
answer the door. He is dressed in a tuxedo. The person at
the door is a CAR HAULER with Orlando's Ferrari |
|
|
CAR HAULER
(to Orlando)
I have a delivery for Orlando
Remington |
|
|
82.
|
Orlando looks at his Ferrari in the driveway. He runs over
it and kisses it. He then starts to talk to it |
|
|
ORLANDO
(Talking to
Ferrari)
Oh baby..daddy missed you. How
was my baby? Did Mr. Car Guy take
good care of you? |
|
|
|
CAR HAULER
(to Orlando)
Hey buddy, I need you to sign for
the car |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to car hauler)
Sure |
|
|
Orlando grabs a clipboard from the car hauler and signs it |
|
|
CAR HAULER
Nice house you have here. You
famous or something? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Thanks, but it's my friends house. |
|
|
Orlando hands the clipboard back to the car hauler |
|
|
CAR HAULER
Thanks Kato..you have a great
night |
|
|
Car hauler exits |
|
|
ORLANDO
(under breath)
Kato? Who the hell is Kato? |
|
|
Orlando walks over to the Ferrari one more time, rubs the
hood and SURPRISE Dan and Steve pop out of the car and hell
"SURPRISE" |
|
|
ORLANDO
What the hell are you guys doing
here!? |
|
|
|
DAN
We had to make sure you weren't
full of shit |
|
|
83.
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
Look at you Mr. big time, flashy
dresser. Those shoes must have
cost a fortune |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(To Dan and Steve)
This isn't funny. I have a date
any minute now |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Orlando)
You, at least, gonna show us the
house? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Sure, you can come in..but only
for a few minutes |
|
|
They walk into Elle's house |
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
Anybody we know? |
|
|
|
|
|
STEVE
(to Orlando)
The date? You dating anybody we
might know? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I guess you can say that |
|
|
|
DAN
(to Orlando)
Look at Mr. fancy pants over here.
Good for you, bro. I'm happy for
you. You got a nice car, fancy
digs and you're too big for us
already. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I don't want to be rude, but my
date will be here any minute |
|
|
|
DAN
What? You're kicking us out bro? |
|
|
84.
|
|
STEVE
(to Dan)
Fuck this punk. I told you it was
a bad idea. Let's get the fuck
out of here. It's clear that he
is too good for us. |
|
|
Orlando reaches into his pocket and pulls out a wad of money |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Dan)
Look, here is 500 bucks. Go to a
club, hit the scene and take the
Ferrari |
|
|
|
DAN
We don't want your money bro. We
just came here to apologize, but
it seems we were right. You're a
fucking prick. Let's get out of
here Steve |
|
|
Dan and Steve walk down the driveway. A limo pulls up into
the driveway to pick up Orlando. Orlando looks at the
Ferrari, looks at the garage. Runs into the car and parks
it in the garage. Sandra steps out of the limo and greets
orlando |
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(to Orlando)
You look so great! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Sandra)
As do you, my dear |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
(to Orlando)
Who were those guys walking down
the driveway? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I'll tell you later |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Alright, let's go! You excited? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Very! Oh, let me leave Elle a note
before we go. Be right back |
|
|
|
85.
|
EXT. HOLLYWOOD MOVIE PREMIERE - NIGHT |
|
There are several A list celebs attending a Hollywood movie
premiere. Sandra Bullock is the main star of the film. The
red carpet is out, and Entertainment Tonight is interviewing
celebs as they step on to the red carpet. Orlando and
Sandra step out of the limo. Sandra strikes a pose to the
hundreds of paparazzi that are snapping photos. Orlando is
trying not to look awkward. |
|
|
ET REPORTER
Sandra! Sandra! sandra! |
|
|
Sandra stops over to chat with the ET Reporter |
|
|
|
|
ET REPORTER
(to Sandra)
Sandra, how do you rate this
picture? Better than "The
Blindside"? |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
That's what we're hoping. No,
seriously..they are two completely
different pictures. I just hope
people will come out and see it. I
have to say, that I snook a peek
at it last month and I was blown
away |
|
|
|
ET REPORTER
(to Sandra)
We can't help but notice your
date. Who is he? |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Well, E.T...if you must really
know, this is a hot stud I picked
up when I was in Costa Rica.
yep..no, actually he is going to
be the next "big thing'. He just
wrote a movie for Steven
Spielberg..oh heck, just ask him |
|
|
|
ET REPORTER
(to Orlando)
Ok..who are you? |
|
|
86.
|
|
ORLANDO
Me llamo es Orlando. Just
kidding. Actually, my name is
Orlando and Sandra is great |
|
|
|
ET REPORTER
(rolling eyes)
Alright, well there you have it |
|
|
|
INT. ELLE'S MANSION - NIGHT |
|
Elle is wearing a mud mask on her face, eating sliced
cucumbers watching Entertainment Tonight. She sees
headlights from the window. She runs over to it, and peeks
out. She sees Orlando step out of the limo with Sandra.
Elle makes a funny face, then she sees Orlando kiss Sandra
for a few minutes. She then runs to the couch. The door
opens and Orlando walks in |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
Hey! What are you doing home so
early? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
My date was a disaster! How was
your night? |
|
|
Orlando runs over to Elle, and lays across her lap, looking
up at her |
|
|
ORLANDO
What a night! What a night! It was
fan-tastic! I went with Sandra to
a fancy premiere...got a little
drunk.. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
That's nice.. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
nice? nice? Whatever..I think
you're jealous |
|
|
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh my God! You are soooo jealous!
Jealous jealous jealous |
|
|
87.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Oh please..(beat) Can I ask you a
question? |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
How come you don't make a pass at
me? |
|
|
Orlando springs up from Elle's lap |
|
|
ORLANDO
You serious? I'm always making a
pass at you. Am I? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Don't you find me attractive? |
|
|
Orlando is trying not to laugh at Elle's mud mask face |
|
|
ORLANDO
Of course I do. You are the
prettiest girl in the world, and
that's the problem. You have no
idea what you do to me, but I have
way too much respect for you.
Honestly, it would kill me to see
you date a guy and fall in
love..but, I know that if I was to
be lucky enough to date you it
won't work. I'm not sure I could
live like that--without you in my
life. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
I wish there were more men like
you. This guy couldn't keep his
hands off of me. It's like I'm
just an object. People think that
just because I am a former model
that gives them the right to treat
me like I'm some kind of idiot. I
happen to be smart you know! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Don't forget caring, talented,
beautiful.. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
keep going |
|
|
88.
|
|
ORLANDO
Well, take it for what it's worth,
but I think you are the bestest,
and I would give anything to be
the guy to date you |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
That's what I like about you. I
like hanging out with you, and I
understand now why you don't hit
on me. I feel the same way |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(smiling)
But..you think that someday..you
know if we can't take the tension
anymore...we can do it? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Ha! Oh hey, your friends stopped
by earlier |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh..them. What did they have to
say? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
They just asked if you were
around, but if you ask me I think
they were trying to find a way to
spend the night |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Alright, you asked me a question
now it's my turn |
|
|
|
|
|
ORLANDO
When you made it, did your friends
think you were too good for them?
Or, did they want to hang around
with you just for your money? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Hmmm.. I honestly can't remember,
but I was a total dork growing up.
When I made it I was focused, and
I was very young. I didn't really
have time to make friends, and the
friends I had were pretty
successful. My best advice to you
is to not let people take
(MORE)
|
|
89.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON (cont'd)
advantage of you...you'll be fine |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Thanks! Well, I'm tired. I'm off
to bed |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Yeah, me too |
|
|
|
INT. ELLE'S BEDROOM - DAY |
|
Orlando walks in to Elle's room holding a breakfast tray.
Elle is snoring real loud, passed out sleeping |
|
|
ORLANDO
Wake up! Rise and shine! |
|
|
Elle opens her eyes |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Ugh! What time is it? |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
In the afternoon? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Afternoon? Of course the
afternoon! We went to bed at 5 am.
look, I made you breakfast |
|
|
Elle sits up on the bed, and Orlando hands her the tray |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
You are so sweet! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I cooked you some eggs, bacon and
sausage |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Awe, that's sweet but I don't eat
meat |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I thought you would say that, so I
brought some grapefruit |
|
|
90.
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
You didn't have to go to the
trouble. We could have just gone
out for food |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
There is nothing I wouldn't do for
my little girl |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Did I ever tell you how much I
love you? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
No, I can just read it in your
eyes..ha! |
|
|
The phone rings |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Can you get that? |
|
|
Orlando heads to the phone, and he picks it up. It is
Marvin (his agent) on the line |
|
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
(on phone)
I have been trying to get a hold
of you all day! |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(whispering to
Orlando)
Who is it? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(moving lips)
It's my agent, Marvin |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
You are never going to believe
what I just did for you! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(on phone)
What did you do for me Marvin? |
|
|
91.
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
(on phone)
I got you a spot on the Late Show
with David Letterman! |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(turning to Elle)
Letterman? Cool, when? |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
Tomorrow night. You're a big hit
with Lettermen. apparently he is
jealous of you and Elle making the
tabloids |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Great! Who should I call to make
travel arrangements? |
|
|
|
MARVIN DEVLIN
Don't worry about a thing. Just
show up at the American ticket
counter at LAX and your ticket
will be at the counter |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Alrighty then. Thanks for the
gig. I'll talk to you
later..yep..uh huh..bye |
|
|
Orlando hangs up the phone |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
You wanna go to New York with me? |
|
|
|

non-famous person to make the
news. Well, let's just let him
explain it when he comes out.
Please welcome Orlando Remington |
|
|
Audience applause, Orlando walks out. He shakes David's
hand, David whispers in his ear, and Orlando takes a seat in
the chair. David sits down as well. |
|
92.
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
(to Orlando)
Alright, What's the deal? Who are
you? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(smiling)
I don't know |
|
|
Audience laughs |
|
|
ORLANDO
Actually Dave..I'm just a guy from
Rhode Island
(One audience member claps)
Oh, and apparently the other
person from Rhode Island is here
too |
|
|
Audience laughs |
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
Oh, Rhode Island..Now correct me
if I'm wrong but it's the biggest
little State in the union? |
|
|
|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
So, who did you meet first..Steven
Spielberg or Elle MacPherson? |
|
|
Audience laughs |
|
|
ORLANDO
(thinking)
Ummm...It was..Oh, Steven
Spielberg! |
|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
And did you make out with him too? |
|
|
David displays the National Enquirer edition with Orlando
and Elle in a steamy embrace. Audience laughs |
|
|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
Uh..Somebody got some splaining to

|
|
93.
|
|
ORLANDO

|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
Yeah..uh..Hey, wanna do something
funny? Oh, I have an idea..why
don't you drop your clothes and we

Audience erupts in hysterical laughter |
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
I wanna be in on that joke |
|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
So, what is your relationship with
Elle? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
We are just friends |
|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
Uhm..I'm having a hard time
believing that |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
If you want we can get her out
here? She is backstage, and I'm
sure she would love to talk to you |
|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
(turning to
producer)
Do we have time to get her out
here?
Ladies and gentleman please
welcome Elle MacPherson |
|
|
Audience applause, Elle walks out waving, greets Dave with a
kiss on cheek...THEN, she sits on Orlando's lap and gives
him a 15 second kiss. When they are done kissing, Orlando
is left with lipstick on his lips |
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
Just friends, huh? |
|
|
Audience laughs |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(to Dave)
I missed you Dave |
|
|
94.
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
Sure, it looks like you did. Now,
how did you two meet? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(to Orlando)
Do you want to tell them, Pookie
wookie? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
You can tell them |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Hmm..where to begin. Well, I was
in Rhode Island filming a movie
that is set for release in the
fall and I was looking to buy a
house. Orlando was the real
estate agent who sold me the
house. |
|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
You fell in love with a real
estate agent??? I'm a talk show
host..for the love of God |
|
|
Audience laughs |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Wait! Let me finish! |
|
|
Audience woo's |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Actually I was blown away when I
was handed this movie script from
Steven Spielberg. I read it, and
just went "Wow" I looked to find
out who wrote it and it was
Orlando. So, I was dying to meet
him...and here we are |
|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
No..really |
|
|
|
|
|
|
95.
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
Alright, let me see if I have this
straight. A plain ol' normal guy
from Rhode Island meets a very
beautiful and talented Supermodel
and gets a film deal from Steven
Spielberg and makes out with Elle
in her multi-million dollar
mansion? Am I missing anything? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
No. That is pretty much it |
|
|
Elle runs her fingers all over Orlando's hair |
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
That sounds like a good story..a
little unbelievable, but a good
story. So, what is the movie
you're working on?..if you don't
mind me asking? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Well, it is about an everyday
normal guy--from Rhode Island--who
shacks up with a Supermodel, and
gets a film deal by none other
than Steven Spielberg...sound
familiar? |
|
|
|
DAVID LETTERMAN
Orlando and Elle everyone. We'll
be right back with stupid pet
tricks |
|
|
|
EXT. 53RD AND BROADWAY - NIGHT |
|
Outside of The Late Show with David Letterman studio.
Orlando and Elle exit out the side door to a flood of fans
and paparazzi. They jump into a waiting limo to take them
to the airport. They are seen holding hands |
|
|
INT. LIMO - NIGHT |
|
Orlando and Elle jump into the limo from their appearance on
the Late Show with David Letterman. There is a bottle of
champagne waiting for them. Orlando pops open the bottle
and pours a glass for Elle. He holds up a glass and makes a
toast |
|
96.
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
I'd like to make a toast to the
greatest girl, and to the greatest
friendship that anyone could ask
for |
|
|
|
|
Orlando and Elle tap their champagne glasses and drink down
the glass. Elle's cell phone rings. She answers |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(on phone)
Hello..hey, how are you?..great.
I'm not doing anything..France!
Fine..when? How much?..I'll be
there! Good bye..rather bon soir |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
My agent!I have a gig as a judge
for a modeling reality show in
France. The pay is amazing! |
|
|
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Come with me! Please!! Please
please please! We can have so much
fun. Shopping, hanging out at the
beach. Will you? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I can't...I have a ton of
re-write's to do, and it has to be
perfect. |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Do the rewrite's in France |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
I can't..too many
distractions.(beat)
You look really pretty |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Pretty? What are you like 14 years
old? ha! |
|
|
97.
|
|
ORLANDO
You think we can talk when you
come back from France? |
|
|
The limo stops, and the driver opens the door for Orlando
and Elle. |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Looks like we have a plane to
catch |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
You coming to L.A. or going
straight to France? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
I'm going to L.A., but I have to
make a stop first..so I'll see you
back at home? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Sounds like a plan. Do I get a
kiss? |
|
|
Elle kisses Orlando on the cheek |
|
|
|
|
INT. BAR - NIGHT |

Orlando walks into a trendy bar in Los Angeles. He
approaches the bartender |

ORLANDO

|
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh...right! ha! So, how have you

|

SANDRA BULLOCK
Been doing great. Thank you again
for a great time the other night |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
The other night! No, thank you for
inviting me! I had a blast |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Oh, I saw you guys on Letterman |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
really? So, were we funny? I hope
I didn't look like a fool. |
|
|
The bartender places the two Rolling Rocks at the counter.
Orlando thanks the bartender, hands a bottle to Sandra and
takes a sip of his bottle. Sandra follows |
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Yeah....Yeah that you guys were
funny. You didn't look like a
fool. You guys were real funny.
Great stories too |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
So, you wanna hear my pitch? |
|
|
|
|
|
ORLANDO
We had such a good time, the other
night, what are the chances that
you would want to go out with
me..again? |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Oh....I'm sorry, but I met
someone.. |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Oh..cool! I'm happy for you. You
deserve someone in your life |
|
|
99.
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
I hope I didn't hurt your feelings |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
No, I just figured..well..we had
such a great time and all |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
You should have asked me sooner |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
Yeah, I know..it's no big deal |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Well, I have to go, but thanks for
the drink. |
|
|
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
And look on the bright side. You
have Elle..she's a keeper, you
know |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
We're just friends--you know |
|
|
|
SANDRA BULLOCK
Yeah..sure..I know (beat) Bye |
|
|
Sandra exits. Orlando puts his head down |
|
|
ORLANDO
(to bartender)
I'll have a scotch..on second
thought make it a double! |
|
|
Orlando exits the bar, looking sad. He gets into his
Ferrari. He is hounded by people asking for his autograph
and paparazzi taking pictures and asking him questions. He
pulls out |

|
INT. ORLANDO'S BEDROOM - DAY |
|
A shirtless Orlando is laying in bed..shirtless. |
|
|
ORLANDO (V.O.)
Yeah, sure..I know what you're
thinking. You're feeling bad for
little ol' me for getting shot
down by Sandra Bullock--or--you're
thinking to yourself that this

100.
|
|
ORLANDO (cont'd)
story is so unbelievable. How is
it that a normal guy gets a
supermodel to give him a Ferrari,
lets him live in her house and
goes on million dollar shopping
spree's. You're also probably
thinking that If I was Orlando I
would have already been in a
serious relationship with Elle. |
|
|
A woman's arm can be seen embracing Orlando, and her long
blond hair..but from the back |
|
|
ORLANDO (V.O.)
Yeah. I got that covered. |
|
|
REVEAL the woman in bed with Orlando is Elle |
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
(to Orlando)
One more time, honey? |
|
|
|
ORLANDO (V.O.)
I got everything I want. The
money, the car, the woman. Ain't
life grand? Oh, you're probably
wondering what happened to the TV
Pilot. The show was cancelled,
but we did film the movie version |

REVEAL Movie Set |

|
STEVEN SPIELBERG
And Cut! That's a wrap folks. Good
job everybody |
|
|
|
ORLANDO
(to Elle)
So, was it good for you? |
|
|
|
ELLE MAC PHERSON
Oh! It was good |
|
|
Orlando and Elle can both be seen laughing |
|
|
ORLANDO (V.O.)
Only in Hollywood can dreams like
this come true |
|
|
FADE OUT. |
