EXCERPT FROM ZOMBIES OF THE DEEP

SC3. INT. BEDROOM - COLE\PETE’S CONDO - DAY - 2014 [PETE ROSCHILDE OPENS HIS EYES, SUNLIGHT STREAMING THROUGH THE OPEN WINDOW AS HE LIES IN BED.] COLE JACOB BILLINGTON(O.O.V.) “Thanks for the heads up sir. I hope they find the culprit. Those paintings mean a lot to me, and the money from the sales was meant to go to charity. I’ll meet you at the gallery as soon as I can catch a flight over.” [PETE NUZZLES UP TO COLE, SAT PERCHED ON THE EDGE OF THE BED. THE OPEN CLOSET IS FILLED WITH EXPENSIVE SHIRTS.] COLE JACOB BILLINGTON “So this Shadow Network, you’re saying they’ve specifically stated in their manifesto that my paintings hold secrets the world aint to know? They’re right in a way, but how do they know this? They’re just paintings.” [COLE PAUSES FOR A BEAT.] “The incident in nineteen eighty six you mean, when we found holo-paintings at Expo that were fuelled by a quantum entanglement field generator? I see where you’re going with this George, they want to use my paintings to travel in time. However, the case in nineteen eighty six showed us that the universe of the painting is illusory. Perhaps the Shadow Network doesn’t know that? I’m going to ask Sera and Reginald to fly over with me; assuming their passports are in order. I’ll see you there.” [COLE CLOSES HIS PHONE. COLE GRABS A PEN AND PAPER, SCRIBBLING SOME NOTES ATOP THE BEDSIDE TABLE. COLE TURNS, GIVING PETE A PECK ON THE CHEEK.] COLE JACOB BILLINGTON “Mm, sleep well Pete?” PETE ROSCHILDE “With you at my side, Cole; who couldn’t?” COLE JACOB BILLINGTON “That's good." [COLE HEADS TO THE CLOSET, PULLING ASIDE SHIRTS.] COLE JACOB BILLINGTON “That’s very good. Exceedingly good. Yessiree.” PETE ROSCHILDE "You're looking good today, mister sexy. You've been working out on the sly?" [COLE GRABS A GREEN GUCCI FROM THE CLOSET, TURNING TO FACE PETE; SHIRT ON THE HANGER.] COLE JACOB BILLINGTON "Mm, and you know what? I think I've actually lost a few pounds." [PETE COMES AROUND FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BED.] PETE ROSCHILDE "You go, hot stuff. We should see what's new down at the club. I like to watch the other boys drool over you and know that I'm the one who gets to go home with you at the end of the night." [COLE GRABS PETE AROUND THE WAIST.] COLE JACOB BILLINGTON "You're not too bad yourself, babe." [PETE AND COLE SHARE A QUICK KISS. COLE EXIT’S THE ROOM, HEADING DOWN THE HALL TOWARDS THE BATHROOM.] PETE ROSCHILDE "Love you!" CUT TO: -
