Gen LMNOP : The Lost Scene
Completed as of October 25th, 2004

INT. CAR -- EVENING

MIDUS and JACKSON are listening to some music in ALICIA 
RENNER'S car.  She turns it up a bit.

       ALICIA RENNER
          You have to listen to this song!

They do for a bit.  JACKSON is the first to speak.

       JACKSON
          What the hell sort of song is this?  
          My girlfriend can beat your girlfriend 
          up?  What is this crap.

Alicia starts to pull back a bit.

       JACKSON (CONT'D)
          Am I Right or am I right?

MIDUS shrugs his shoulders.

EXT. STREETS -- EVENING

MIDUS and JACKSON are dropped off and ALICIA speeds away.

       JACKSON
          Yo, what do you think that was all 
          about?

       MIDUS
          I dunno.  Maybe she was like, angry 
          at you for something.

       JACKSON
          But I haven't done anything today 
          yet.

       MIDUS
          Give it time.

There's a long pause as they stand outside of a movie theater.

       MIDUS (CONT'D)
          Wait.  I got it.

       JACKSON
          The recipe for gold?

       MIDUS
          No.  That song she played.  She 
          thought that song described how your 
          relationship is.

INT. ALICIA'S ROOM -- DAY

ALICIA is writing and listening to the same song as before.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
             2.


       ALICIA RENNER
          This song describes how our 
          relationship is.

EXT. STREETS -- NIGHT

MIDUS and JACKSON get a little nervous about the situation.

       JACKSON
          Oh.  I see.

       MIDUS
          Yeah.

Long pause again.

       JACKSON
          This is like one of those movies.  
          You have the scene where the unknowing 
          guy insults the girls choice of music 
          or set design or novel or work of 
          creativity without realizing it's 
          about him, and then we come back 
          later to the realiziation with the 
          help of a best friend.

INT. CAR -- EVENING

Now three other people are in the car.  They act out  
JACKSON'S story without dialogue in action until JACKSON 
finishes speaking.

       OTHER JACKSON
          I've come to a realization!

He runs off.

INT. SCIENCE LAB -- DAY

OTHERJACKSON begins to pour some test tubes and the like 
inside a labratory.  He shouts out just as some ingredients 
react.

       OTHER JACKSON
          Success.  I've made a recipe for 
          gold.

He pulls out the paper.

       OTHER JACKSON (CONT'D)
          Two parts iron, two parts half and 
          half, and one large African Elephant.  
          Pure genius.

EXT. STREETS -- EVENING

MIDUS and JACKSON are still standing outside the theater.
