PISSED

PISSED
By Len Archibald

GENRE: Comedy
LOGLINE:

After a desperate roadside bathroom break, a man unexpectedly locks eyes with a woman in the same predicament—an awkward yet fateful encounter that leads to an unconventional love story.

SYNOPSIS:

Jason’s night starts like any other: a house party, a few drinks, and a half-empty bottle of water he’s nursing like it’s his lifeline. But as he hops into his car for the 12-minute drive home, Jason’s bladder declares war. What begins as a mild inconvenience quickly escalates into a full-blown emergency.

With the GPS counting down the minutes, Jason’s desperation grows. By the time it hits “Three minutes to destination,” he’s sweating, clenching, and muttering curses under his breath. Unable to hold it any longer, Jason swerves to the roadside and bolts into the forest, ready to let nature take its course.

But just as he’s about to relieve himself, he hears a faint trickling sound. Peeking from behind a bush is a woman in the same predicament. They lock eyes, share an awkward wave, and bond over their shared desperation.

Years later, Jason and the woman are married, sitting on a couch with their two kids. As they recount the hilariously unromantic story of how they met, their tween daughter declares, “Well, that’s it—my bladder’s officially retired.”

PISSED is a screwball comedy about life’s most awkward moments, the universality of human experiences, and finding love in the most unexpected places. It’s a story that proves sometimes, the best relationships start with a little...pressure.

Grab a seat, hold it in, and get ready to laugh.
