Take Me Home Tonight Page #3

Synopsis: It's the late 1980s, when Wall Street is riding high, and it seems as if the entire country is cashing in on the bumper profits. Disgusted with the materialism that surrounds him, Matt Franklin, a brilliant young MIT graduate, has walked out on his well-paid position at a local lab and taken a low-level job as a video clerk, much to his father Bill's consternation. And the crises keep piling up in Matt's life. His best buddy Barry has just gotten fired from his job, his brainy sister Wendy is getting hitched to her vapid boyfriend Kyle, and the gorgeous Tori Frederking, long-time object of Matt's unattainable adoration, is suddenly back in the picture. Now, on one wild, woolly and irresponsible evening, everything is coming to a head, with explosive results.

the way. You're gonna do this, Matt!

And you're gonna do it well.

You're gonna get this broads number.

Hey great work today guy, alright. Thank

you very much. Good job today.

Appreciate it. Bien. Mucho!

- Hey Kyle.

- Hey.

Get these lights on. Let's see what

this looks like.

Hey watch. I'm gonna school this

b*tch, man.

Guys. Get a beer. You're off the clock.

Hang out. Good job today.

Stellar! That's exactly what I'm talking

about. We having a party here or what.

Play that f***in music, white boy.

Oh, if I didn't have a cast on, I'd

school you little b*tches.

- Oh sh*t! I can't show up in this car.

- Why not?

Uh, the Frederking does not roll in a

kumquat.

That's my ?? bottle from MIT. Come on,

I was saving that for something special.

It's kinda special that I've never drunk

this much, this fast before.

Hey, listen. You will get through this.

I got fired today, ok? Fired.

I didn't go to screw all day and drink all

night college, like you twin bastards did.

Tonight I'm catching up.

- Take a right at these lights up here.

- Why?

Take a right! I'm sorry.

I'm having no part of this.

Yeah Barry, I'm a little fuzzy on how we're

gonna get away with this.

I have a set of keys. I know all the alarm

codes. It's almost perfectly legitimate.

Almost.

- You just honk the horn if anything shows up.

- Roger that.

Listen Barry. We really don't want to spend

tonight in the LA county jail...

Giving some white supremacist a crying

blow job.

That's not gonna happen, Matt. There's

no way you'd cry.

Look!

Mike the prick bastard sales manager keeps the

keys to the 560SL in his prick bastard desk.

C'mon, c'mon, c'mon.

I don't know ??

We're gonna bring it back later, nobody's

gonna know the difference, okay.

I don't know. What if someone sees us?

I think there might be security cameras.

Matt, stop thinking. Ok, we'll just

do it.

- Shut off the alarm.

- No problem.

F***!

They changed the alarm codes, man. Those

bastards didn't trust me.

I wonder why.

Oh my god. Holy f***! This is great!

- You p*ssy! Get back in the game!

- C'mon.

What the hell is he doing?

Test drive?

- Holy sh*t!

- Stole a car! We stole a car!

Unbelievable.

I've never driven the 560SL before, Matt.

They never let me.

- Man... maybe you should take it back.

- No.

You need this car tonight, Matt. You

need this car tonight.

Doreen! What's up?

Tell 'em Where You from.

Straight Outta Compton

Another crazy-ass Nigga.

Punks I smoke, yo, my rep gets Bigger

I'm a bad mutha fucka and you know this.

But the p*ssy ass niggas won't show this.

But I don't give a f***, I'm a make my snaps.

If not from the records in the jack and the craps
