Eagle vs Shark Page #2

Synopsis: In Wellington, Lily is a wallflower, inexplicably attracted to Jerrod, a loser. He's nursing a decade-long grudge against someone who teased him in high school; she's just out of a job. She goes home with him to a seacoast town where he intends to have it out with his nemesis; she meets his father, his daughter from a one-night stand, and other family members - and there's the memory of his talented (and dead) brother. Jerrod treats Lily badly, invents a relationship with a women he had a crush on years before, and gears up for his fight. Will she finally have enough and go home?

F***.

- Good stuff, Lily.

- You're good.

Okay, so that's the end of the list.

And we're into the finals now.

And Dangerous Person

will take on last year's champion...

and the year before

that's champion...

Eagle Lord.

Gidday.

Fight.

Nice.

But no cigar.

Kill her.

Victory.

You win.

Yeah.

- Awesome.

- Great.

It's time for my game.

- Impressive fighting, Dangerous Person.

- Thanks.

Where'd you learn to play

like that?

I don't know.

I guess I just got into it.

Well, you had some pretty cool moves

for someone who'd never played before.

Takes more than cool moves

to defeat a champion.

Don't forget that.

This is a plane I made.

Cool.

Guitar, emery board, fret board.

Painted eggs.

Jewellery.

Watch wallet.

Wow.

This is the area

where I make my candles.

Flame within a flame.

Conceptual.

Giant pencil.

Ancient coin.

Probably sell these

to the Muslims.

Sell this one to the Yanks.

Make a mint.

Cool.

I guess I've gotta keep creating

or I'll just die.

Wow.

So who's that Tarantula guy.

Is that your boyfriend?

Oh, no. He's my brother.

He's a cartoonist. And he's

very good at accents and impressions.

My brother's dead.

Oh, I'm sorry.

My parents are dead too.

Yeah, well...

My mum's dead as well.

How did your parents die?

Heart attacks.

Were they too fat?

Oh, no.

My Dad died when he was 72...

and then my Mum died

because she really missed him.

Yeah well...

my Mum got kicked in the head

by a cow.

Can't go near cows now because of that,

because I think about her too much.

I'm so sorry about your mum.

And your brother.

It's cool.

You're pretty beautiful.

Same.

Oh, I mean, you are too...

sort of, more handsome.

- Do you wanna kiss?

- Yep.

On the lips, though.

Yep.

Okay.

- Do you wanna have a lie-down on my bed?

- Yep.

Okay.

Do you wanna have sex?

Yep.

Sorry.

- Hello?

- Hello, is Eric there, please?

- Who's speaking?

- The Police.

Okay.

Hello?

You're f***in' dead,

you f***in' Samoan... f***.

Ah, who is this? Stop...

Oh, hi.

What are you doing here?

Um, I just had a sandwich and I was,

you know, nearby.

That was some pretty good sex

last night.

Okay, well.

I'm going back to work.

Okay, bye.

- See ya.

- See ya.

- Ah, what are you up to tonight?

- I don't know.

I might go to a movie.

You can come if you want.

It's the new Wolverine movie.

It's got Hugh Jackman in it.

Apparently I look like him.

Gets pretty tiresome.

"Hey Jarrod,

you look like Wolverine."

Sometimes I wish I did have knives

that came out of my fists.

Anyway, it's 7:
30 at Cine-saurus Rex.

If you want to come...

- You can come, I don't care.

- Yep.

Do you?

Okay. Okay. See ya.

See ya.
