SECRETARY:
Joe Gargan is holding for you.
Ted heads straight for his phone and picks it up.
TED:
Joey!
JOE GARGAN, 39, Ted’s cousin, stands in a phone booth outsidea small, seaside hotel.
He slicks back a comb over hiding the early signs of areceding hairline. This makes him stick out like a blacksheep at Kennedy family gatherings. Along with his glasses.
GARGAN:
What’s going on, Teddy? I’ve beenon hold here for ten minutes.
INTERCUT:
Ted leans back in his chair and gives a childlike shrug.
TED:
I really needed to talk to you.
He puts his feet on the desk.
GARGAN:
Well, it must have been somethingpretty damn important.
Gargan’s eyes roll; he knows it’s not.
TED:
overbooked.
GARGAN:
I just checked in. I’m holding thekey to our room right here.
TED:
Not our hotel room. The girls! MaryJo just called me.

GARGAN:
I’m sure she can find all of them
another place. Mary Jo was the most
resourceful of Bobby’s oldsecretaries.
TED:
They don’t know the island! I needthis handled properly.
GARGAN:
What do you want me to do? Slap aninjunction on the desk clerk untilhe coughs up a room?
TED:
I don’t need a lawyer, I need myadvance man!
GARGAN:
I’ve still gotta rig the hull. Theregatta is this afternoon -
TED:
I know when the race is. I’m
sailing the damn boat with you.
GARGAN:
But what about the party?
TED:
There’s no party if the Boiler RoomGirls aren’t there.
Ted stands up from his chair. He grabs a FRAMED PHOTO sitting
on his desk:
Ted, no older than thirteen, plays by the poolwith his brothers Jack and Bobby.In the photo, Gargan lies on the ground and takes a punch inthe jaw from Bobby. All the Kennedy brothers appear to laughand smile. Ted especially.
TED (CONT’D)
Listen, Ole Joey’ll fix it, right?
GARGAN:
When your dad said that -
TED:
When my dad said that, he said thatI could always count on you. Now,
can I count on you?
Gargan grits his teeth.
GARGAN:
Yep. “Ole Joey’ll fix it.”
