Clerks Page #6

Synopsis: Dante Hicks is not having a good day. He works as a clerk in a small convenience store and is told to come into work on his day off. Dante thinks life is a series of down endings and this day is proving to no different. He reads in the newspaper that his ex-girlfriend Caitlin is getting married. His present girlfriend reveals to have somewhat more experience with sex that he ever imagined. His principal concerns are the hockey game he has that afternoon and the wake for a friend who died. His buddy Randal Graves works as a clerk in the video store next and he hates his job just about as much as Dante hates his.

SILENT BOB nods.

JAY:

Tonight, you and me are going off

that f***er's head, and take out his

f***ing soul! Remind me if he tries

to buy something from us, to cut it

with leafs and twigs... or f***ing

sh*t in the motherf***er's bag!

Some girls walk past. JAY smiles at them.

JAY:

Wa sup sluts?

(to SILENT BOB)

Damn Silent Bob! You one rude

motherf***er! But you're cute as

hell.

(slowly drops to knees)

I wanna go down on you, and suckle

you.

(makes blow job neck-

jerks)

And then, I wanna line up three more

guys, and make like a circus seal...

JAY makes blow job faces down an imaginary line of guys,

looking quite like a performing seal. He throws a little

humming sound behind each nod. He then hops up quickly.

JAY:

Ewwww! You f***ing f*ggot! I f***ing

hate guys!

(yelling)

I LOVE WOMEN!

(calmer)

Neh.

A GUY comes up to them.

GUY:

You selling?

JAY:

(all business)

I got hits, hash, weed, and later on

I'll have 'shrooms. We take cash, or

stolen MasterCard and Visa.

CUT TO:

INT:
CONVENIENCE STORE. DAY

A SMALL CROWD gathers around the ACTIVIST as he orates. It

has become something of a rally.

ACTIVIST:

You're spending what? Twenty, thirty

dollars a week on cigarettes.

LISTENER 1

Forty.

Kevin Smith

Kevin Patrick Smith (born August 2, 1970) is an American filmmaker, actor, comedian, public speaker, comic book writer, author, and podcaster. He came to prominence with the low-budget comedy Clerks (1994), which he wrote, directed, co-produced, and acted in as the character Silent Bob of stoner duo "Jay & Silent Bob". Jay and Silent Bob have appeared in Smith's follow-up films Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back which were mostly all set in his home state of New Jersey. While not strictly sequential, the films frequently featured crossover plot elements, character references, and a shared canon described by fans as the "View Askewniverse", named after his production company View Askew Productions, which he co-founded with Scott Mosier. more…
