Wild Sound

INT-LIVING ROOM-DAY A large house in Somerville, MA.

RED-HAIRED GIRL

Where’s the phone bill?

APE #1

Oh, I paid it.

RED-HAIRED GIRL

You paid the phone bill already?

APE #1

Yeah.

RED-HAIRED GIRL

Well how much do I owe you?

APE #1

Oh, don’t worry about it.

RED-HAIRED GIRL

What? No come on, how much do I owe?

APE #1

No don’t worry about it, I got it.

RED-HAIRED GIRL

(Puzzled frown) If you say so…

 

INT-KITCHEN-NEXT MORNING

APE #2

Hey did you hear about the phone bill?

RED-HAIRED GIRL

Just that Ape #1 said he paid it.

APE #2

(Laughing) He logged on to some Brazilian porn site that billed your phone bill, and the bill was like $300.

RED-HAIRED GIRL

$300? What’s so special about Brazilian porn?  Isn’t there plenty of free porn on the web?

APE #2

I guess he has expensive taste.

Fade to black.
