DONNA:
I think you should visit your son.
And try and get your boss to write
a note about your performance on
the job. You need to create the
impression of a responsible, decent
citizen with familial
responsibilities who happened to
slip up once.
They have reached the front door. BERNIE nods, about to exit.
DONNA:
(with difficulty)
Uh, I know you're having financial
difficulties, Mister LaPlante, but
I wonder if... I mean, the money
I loaned you...
BERNIE:
Some of it. Right here. I got some
of it. I'll get the rest as soon
as I can.
BERNIE pulls out the crumpled bills he took from Donna's wallet
and hands them to her.
DONNA:
(surprised and touched)
I know things are difficult for you,
Mister LaPlante. I don't want to
take your last dime...
BERNIE is already reaching for a twenty.
BERNIE:
Right. I better keep some if I'm
gonna see the kid. For gas and
stuff.
Then, unable to resist the chance, he snatches another.
EXT. LION CAGES/ZOO - ANOTHER DAY
A LION lies glumly in his cage, staring balefully through the
bars at BERNIE who stares balefully back, contemplating the iron
bars. At BERNIE'S side is a ten year old boy, JOEY, whose neat,
scrubbed appearance is in sharp contrast to BERNIE'S rumpled,
slightly soiled look.
JOEY:
Wow! Look at that one!
JOEY is indicating the next cage where a BLACK PANTHER is pacing
restlessly to and fro.
JOEY:
If you were in there, he'd kill you,
wouldn't he...Dad?
As Bernie looks at the PANTHER, the muscular beast looks right
into BERNIE'S eyes with the furious yellow stare as if to say
"I'm waiting."
BERNIE:
Yeah, yeah, something like that.
INT. FLUKY'S RESTAURANT - AN HOUR LATER (DAY)
BERNIE and JOEY facing each other in a booth, eating burgers.
BERNIE:
This guy, this "friend" your
mother's seeing, he's a fireman,
huh? He ever... spend the night,
whatsisname?
JOEY:
Sometimes. His name's Elliot. He
saved a guy's life one time. In
a fire.
