Dream Boy Page #4

Synopsis: Shy and withdrawn, Nathan (played by Stephan Bender) is new to his school, unusually smart (a grade ahead) and the silent tension at home nearly unbearable. Mom, Dad, and Nathan have moved constantly, town after town, landing, inexplicably, in god-fearing "St. Francesville". Roy (played by the multi-talented Max Roeg), a year older than Nathan, confident and hard-working, drives the bus to their school while a friendship blooms between them into a relationship that is fraught with confusion and yearning. But secrets pick at the relationship, the unspoken rules of their angst-driven interactions unravel as Nathan's world again comes crashing inwards. Tension crescendos as shame and terror, stress and disaster all compete to immobilize and destroy both of their worlds.

You can sleep in the barn tonight.

I'll show you a place.

You and your folks have a fight?

Yeah, somethin' like that.

You'll be safe in here, okay?

Thanks.

Good mornin'.

Did you sleep?

Yeah.

I think your mom is awake.

The light's on in your kitchen.

I'll hide these.

You get ready for school, okay?

Don't run from me!

Get away from him!

So I talked to Burke and Randy.

We're gonna go camping

this weekend.

All right.

About time you lazy a**holes

got here.

I see you got your ma to let you

come with us. That's good.

Nathan ain't no baby.

So, where we goin'?

It's a secret place

my uncle showed me.

A good long walk into the woods.

Pretty far from everything.

- What the f***'s here?

- You'll see.

We'll see?

Hush up, Burke.

Enjoy the walk.

So much for nice weather.

You don't want none for yourself?

No.

What's the matter?

You want some more?

I'm good.

All right.

You tell me when, partner.

A lot of people killed

in these woods.

Don't start now, Roy.

No, I mean it.

Two men just killed here

last summer, wasn't it?

That's right. Two of 'em.

RO Y:
Them two suckers

from East Baton Rouge.

They found one of them hanging

upside-down with his nuts cut off.

You two sonofabitches

don't scare me.

You know a lot of stories, Roy,

don't ya?

What do you say, Randy? You want

to hear some ghost stories?

Suit yourself.

All right.

So this man from Madisonville

was goin' out with this girl

he shouldn't have been

goin' out with

'cause she was married.

She didn't want to leave her husband

'cause he was a rich man,

and they lived

in this huge mansion together.

So this man, Jimmy Hicks,

decides he's gonna kill this guy

'cause he wants this girl

all to himself.

So he drives up

to this huge mansion

with doors, like, nearly twice

the size of him,

and he knocks on the door

three times.

[Knocks three times]

The woman's husband comes out,

and he pulls a hatchet

from behind his back.

The guy tries to plead with him,

but it doesn't make any difference.

So he turns and runs,

and Jimmy brings the hatchet

right down on the guy's back.

And he doesn't stop there.

He keeps on swinging,

and he chops the guy up

into little bits.

With that last swing,

he cuts the guy's hand right off.

Now he decides he's gonna bury him

in his own backyard.

So he takes him out back,

digs a grave,

tosses the body in

piece by piece.

Then, when he's finished,

he remembers

the bloody hand

with all the fingers.

Dammit, Burke! Cut it out!

But he goes back,

and the hand's not there.

So he figures he must have buried it.

He goes home, takes a shower,

washes all the blood off.

When he comes out,
