SCENE
1 - INT - KITCHEN TABLE
An
officer is sitting at a kitchen table with 5 men, all of them have on
blinking ankle monitors. Andre (a large black man), Conrad (Caucasian
tall, tattooed), Gordon (Caucasian, glasses), Benjamin (Caucasian,
typical guy next door look) and Jeremy (creepy, weird).
OFFICER KARP
Which
one of you perverts posted a picture of your dick in an adult
chatroom yesterday?
No
one speaks up.
OFFICER
KARP
It's
a violation of your parole, I am within my authority to have that
person removed from this house and placed back into the provincial
prison system. Somebody better step forward and save me an
investigation. Benjamin?
BENJAMIN
BENJAMIN
What,
I am your first suspect in a dick pic scandal? That sucks.
OFFICER
KARP
Your
account is the only one I saw logged onto the house computer last
night.
BENJAMIN
I
barely even used the computer, everyone kept stealing it. Conrad and
Gordon stole it every time I went to the washroom and when I went to
make myself a sandwich Andre sat down and started watching a movie on
it.
ANDRE
Don't snitch.
BENJAMIN
You watched Braveheart Andre, it was 3 hours long. I was talking to my family.
OFFICER KARP
Where was Jeremy while all this was going on?
BENJAMIN
I don't know. He was skulking around sort of. In the background. I really try to keep as far from him as I can.
Jeremy
doesn't react much, something is off in the way he stares at
Benjamin. He doesn't say anything.
OFFICER
KARP
Conrad,
do you have any idea where this picture might have come from?
Conrad
is seated to the left of the frame, Andre is seated to the right of
him followed by Benjamin and Jeremy. Andre is large in the frame,
there's something off about Jeremy; there always is.
CONRAD
No
but if the dick's black I can probably guess who's it is.
ANDRE
I
know; right? It's not me, if it was me he'd know it was me and we
wouldn't be having this meeting.
OFFICER
KARP
Andre
you can be excused from this meeting.
ANDRE
No
I want to find out who did it.
GORDON
GORDON
Why
don't you let me see the picture and I'll tell you who's it is?
CONRAD
What
the fuck Gordon?
ANDRE
How
do you know what our dicks look like?
GORDON
It
can't be that hard to tell our dicks apart. I feel like if I had to I
could match a dick to it's face.
BENJAMIN
This
conversation's getting a bit weird fellas.
OFFICER
KARP
For
the sake of the individual's privacy I won't be showing any of you
the picture in question. Jeremy you're being awfully quiet.
CONRAD
Don't
ruin that.
ANDRE
Don't
get Jeremy talking, we don't need him for this.
OFFICER
KARP
Jeremy?
Jeremy
stands up and pulls his pants down, exposing himself.
OFFICER
KARP
Jesus
Jeremy, pull your pants up.
CONRAD
Stop
involving him in things.
GORDON
His
looked exactly how I thought it would.
OFFICER KARP
OFFICER KARP
Well
like it or not unless someone steps forward you're all going to have
to drop your pants. Except for Andre and Jeremy.
BENJAMIN
So what; now Jeremy's out too?
OFFICER KARP
Jeremy's penis did not display the characteristics we're looking for. The picture has to belong to one of you three.
BENJAMIN
So what; now Jeremy's out too?
OFFICER KARP
Jeremy's penis did not display the characteristics we're looking for. The picture has to belong to one of you three.
Andre
laughs, he's enjoying this.
BENJAMIN
This
is a witch hunt!
GORDON
What if I just tell you what my penis looks like, will that help clear my name?
I am about 7 inches long...
CONRAD
Bullshit!
ANDRE
There's no way you're walking around with anything over 6 inches.
GORDON
Why; because I am white?
ANDRE
YES!
BENJAMIN
Well
I am about seven inches.
CONRAD
Zero
chance of that being true. Every guy says he's 7 inches if you ask
him but do you know how many guys actually are? Only like a third of
all guys.
BENJAMIN
And
what are you?
CONRAD
CONRAD
7
inches. That's how I know you two are lying.
ANDRE
All
of you are lying.
OFFICER KARP
OFFICER KARP
Andre
I don't know why you're laughing like this doesn't effect you.
Because of one of these three idiots this house is about to lose
online access.
The
group is stunned to silence.
GORDON
(in
his best Martin Lawrence voice)
Shit
just got real.
ANDRE
What
was that?
GORDON
No
one gets that reference?
Wide
shot of everyone. No one gets that reference, Gordon looks crushed.
OFFICER KARP
I
am also going to recommend that we install security cameras in here.
CONRAD
This
is bullshit!
OFFICER KARP
That's
what happens when you go showing off your dick on the web Conrad.
CONRAD
I've
never shown my dick on the web.
Officer
Karp shoots him a look of pure skepticism.
CONRAD
I've
never shown my dick on the web using THAT computer.
ANDRE
ANDRE
Why
are my rights being taken away because one of those three can't keep
his pants on?
OFFICER KARP
OFFICER KARP
Because
no one gives a crap about your rights, you're a degenerate in a house
full of degenerates. All of your actions reflect on each other. When
one of you posts your dick pics on the internet; all of you pay the
price.
BENJAMIN
You
don't think installing security cameras is a bit extreme?
JEREMY
Yeah.
BENJAMIN
NO
Jeremy.
GORDON
Jeremy
no! Don't come into this.
OFFICER
KARP
Jeremy,
do you have something you want to say?
ANDRE
Jeremy,
don't talk. You'll just say something that makes this worse.
OFFICER
KARP
Jeremy?
JEREMY
I
don't want people to watch what I do.
OFFICER
KARP
and
why not?
JEREMY
Because
then they'll just ask questions.
OFFICER
KARP
Questions?
JEREMY
Everybody always asks me questions about everything I do.
Questions?
JEREMY
Everybody always asks me questions about everything I do.
CONRAD
Yeah!
Like “Jeremy why are you laughing at the ceiling fan?”
JEREMY
Imagine
if it was like a helicopter and it made the kitchen fly away.?
GORDON
Or
“Jeremy, why are you carrying a dead bird?”
JEREMY
I
didn't know it was dead, it didn't start off that way.
ANDRE
Or
“Jeremy why are you crawling around in Benjamin's room?”
BENJAMIN
WHY WERE YOU IN MY ROOM?
JEREMY
I was looking for bugs.
BENJAMIN
Bugs?
JEREMY
To put with my other bugs.
GORDON
OTHER BUGS?
CONRAD
Are you keeping bugs in this house?
JEREMY
Just in my box.
CONRAD
What box?
JEREMY
My box of bugs.
ANDRE
ARRRRRRRRGGGG!! What?
GORDON
You're keeping a box of bugs in this house?
JEREMY
Obviously
OFFICER KARP
I think now's a good time to take a short recess.
