GREEN PEACE

INT. HOUSE –- DAY
JERRY is yelling into
his telephone.
Jerry: I dare you to say that again... You bastard! I dare you to say that once
more – in Arabic! Yeah, ha, ha, ha. Not so tough now, are you, Mr. Unilingual
pantywaist...
There is a knock at the door.
Jerry: Hang on... WHAT?
Enter NICK. A Green Peace representative.
Nick: Thank-you. I’m canvassing for Green Peace. I’m sure you’re familiar with
our work. These are pictures of slaughtered seals.
Jerry: (Looks them over) Cool. How much?
Nick: Pardon me?
Jerry: Do they come in wallet size?
Nick: No.
Jerry: Shame.
Nick: As I was saying...
Jerry: Hold that thought. I’m on the blower.
Nick: Certainly. I’ll get you some literature on whale fat. I believe I also
have a pamphlet on the top 10 misconceptions regarding vivisection.
Jerry: Yeah, you do that. (into phone) I’m back Bernardi. Oh yeah? Well screw
you and that ten-pound sack of whale fat that you call a head. (to Nick) Ha!
That pissed him off. (into phone) What? No one calls me that and gets away with
it. Come over here and say that Bernardi. Oh yeah, I’m scared, real scared...
(to Nick) Hey, tree hugger. What did you say your name was?
Nick: Nick.
Jerry: (into phone) Come over here and my buddy Nick will beat the crap out of
you... That’s right, my buddy, Nick. He’s here right now and he’s plenty PO’d!
Jerry grabs a pamphlet from Nick.
Jerry: He’s an animal Bernardi. You should see what he did to some kittens. It
would turn your stomach.
Nick: Actually, that’s a laboratory in Paraguay.
Jerry: Nick, tell Bernardi that you’re really here.
Nick: I’d rather not. I just came for a donation and to discuss the plight of
the hairy nosed wombat.
Jerry: Yeah, call him that... (into phone) He says you’re a fairy assed wombat,
Bernardi. He’s calling you a fruit.
Nick: No, I’m not!
Jerry: (hands Nick the phone) Tell him Nick, don’t worry. He’s full of hot air,
go on...
Nick reluctantly takes the phone.
Nick: Um, hello? Yes, yes, yes, I understand. (to Jerry) He says he’s going to
kill me.
Jerry: He’s full of it. He won’t kill you. He’s still on parole.
Nick: (puts his ear to phone) He seems quite emphatic... He definitely wants to
kill me.
Jerry: Jesus Christ, he must be serious! What did you say to him?
Nick: I didn’t say anything.
Jerry: What are you nuts? That’s the worst thing you could have said.
Nick: He says he’s on his way over. (he hands phone to Jerry) I should leave
now.
Jerry: Relax, he won’t be here for a minute or two.
Nick: Minute or two?
Jerry: He lives across the street. Look at that dump. Is that crap-shack an
eyesore, or what?
Nick: (into phone) I’m sorry! It’s a mistake!
Jerry: (scratches himself and looks bored) You better leave now, I wanna take a
shower.
Nick: You can’t send me out there. That man sounds dangerous.
Jerry: Hey, Nick, I don’t like you bad mouthing my friends. You better take a
hike before I smack you one myself.
Nick: I’m just a non-violent canvasser.
Jerry: And what? That makes you better than me? Jesus, what a mouth. No wonder
Bernardi wants to kill you. I shouldn’t help you, but, give me the phone...
Nick hands it to him.
Jerry: Gino, it’s Jerry. Look, there’s been some sort of... What? I don’t know.
He just barged in here and started shooting his mouth off about what a hairy
nosed eye sore your wife was and grabbed the phone. No way bud, if you want the
crap kicked out him, you do it yourself... Pretty small... You can take him...
No, you don’t need to bring your sons. Okay, I’ll keep him here. Sure, we can
watch the game afterward.
Nick: Mr. Bernardi! Mr. Bernardi!
Jerry: Yeah, he’s hopping mad. Fine, but do it outside, I just vacuumed. Okay,
and bring a six-pack.
Jerry hangs up and points out his window.
Jerry: Look, he’s bringing a baseball bat. What a wimp. Well, goodbye and good
luck.
Nick: Please, you can’t do this to me, I work for Green Peace.
Jerry: That explains a lot. Jesus you people are pushy.
Jerry shoves him out the front door.
Jerry: Now scram... Hey, Bernardi, keep it off my front lawn. Come on, Nick,
throw a punch. Oh that’s right Bernardi, kick him in the groin while he’s down.
You’re pathetic, Bernardi! What? I dare you to say that again – in Spanish!
Yeah, not so tough now, are you, Mr. Unilingual pantywaist...
Jerry’s cell phone rings.
Jerry: (into phone) WHAT? You’re calling for Green Peace? Hmm, oh sure, I’m
interested... Oh yeah, I’m very familiar with your work

Tom Cruise's BABY! Planner
STOP THE WORLD!
Did you hear? People
are abuzz that there’s a Cruiser/Holmes Baby on the horizon.
Cruise spokeswoman Lee
Anne DeVette told People magazine yesterday, "Tom and Katie are very excited
aliens, and the rest of the world should be as excited as they are. In fact,
Tom demands it."
And so begins the onslaught
of 24/7 news of the pregnancy.
Starting right here!
Yes folks, an alien baby is on the way and we just can’t wait!
So many questions:
Is it Tom’s? (Well, okay probably not, but there’s a funny story behind it)
Will Katie have a Caesarian? Or a Caesar Salad?
How will this affect Tom’s oily Greco-Roman pastime?
Who really cares? And why is it all of us? And why is that?
What about Tommy’s Wedding Planer?
...And is Katie the ninny we all thought she was?
This question is particularly interesting... For all we know, Katie may wind up
being a duplicitous mastermind who has trapped Tom, is pregnant with bastard
child and is ready to expose him as the Greco-Roman wrestler he is unless he
meets her weird, bitchy and pregnant demands.
Anything Can
Happen! More Tomorrow!
