Pretty Woman Page #5

Vivian surveys the dark street. And suddenly sees who's she's

looking for. Walks.

EXT. HOLLYWOOD BLVD. - WIG SHOP - NIGHT

We SEE a young, tough-looking MAN and WOMAN trying on wigs.

The STOREKEEPER is a man wearing a dress and wild wig. The

girl, KIT, is around 18, is dark haired and thin. The young

man, CARLOS, has his arm sloppily draped across Kit's shoulder.

They giggle about something, both obviously high. Kit looks

up, bleary-eyed. She stops. Vivian is standing in front of

her.

VIVIAN:

You spent it on drugs, didn't you?

KIT:

Hi, Viv. Carlos, you know my

roommate, Viv.

CARLOS:

Lookin' good, baby.

VIVIAN:

(ignoring him)

Did you blow it all, Kit? Is it

all gone?

KIT:

Carlos had some great rock.

VIVIAN:

I bet.

(beat)

That was our rent!

Carlos attempts to put an arm around Vivian's shoulders.

CARLOS:

Calm down, Chica.

Vivian throws him off.

CARLOS:

Ey! What is it you wan', baby?

I can fix you up.

VIVIAN:

Beat it, scum bucket!

CARLOS:

You kiss your mother with that

mouth? Your frien' still owes

me 200.

VIVIAN:

(to Kit)

Let's go.

Skateboard appears suddenly, blocking Vivian and Kit's path.

VIVIAN:

Get out of my face or I'll have

those cops on your ass in two

seconds.

Carlos glares at her. He looks down toward the lights of the

cop cars. One of the POLICEMEN looks towards them, curiously.

Vivian waves at the cop.

CARLOS:

(threatening to Vivian)

Don't take no dates tonight,

chica, you got one with me.

Vivian grabs Kit by the arm and pulls her across the Boulevard.

INT. FALAFEL STAND - NIGHT

Vivian and Kit sit at a table sipping tea. Vivian is still

mad at her.

VIVIAN:

We worked for that money. We

were gonna put together enough

to get out of that dump we live

in, get off this street.

KIT:

Viv... don't be stupid. We're

whores.

Vivian looks like she wants to weep. Or scream. She does

neither. She slowly nods. Kit's sorry she said that.

KIT (cont'd)

So I blew our stash. We could

make it all back with one good

night on the streets.

VIVIAN:

I just saw somebody pulled out

of a dumpster. I wonder how much

she made tonight?

KIT:

Don't be mad at me. I'll pay

you back. I promise.

VIVIAN:

I thought you were giving up that

drug sh*t.

KIT:

I will. I'm trying.

(a beat)

Meanwhile I got some crack left,

you wanna get high?
