MAROON:
(continuing)
Here's the problem...
(reads)
"Seen cooing over calamari with
notsonew Sugar Daddy was Jessica
Rabbit... wife of Maroon star, Roger".
(looks up)
His wife's a tramp, but he thinks she's
Betty Crocker. The doubt's eatin' him
up.
VALIANT:
So what do you want me to do?
MAROON:
Get me a couple juicy pictures.
Somethin' I can wise the rabbit up
with.
VALIANT:
I don't work in Toontown.
MAROON:
You don't have to. The rabbit's wife
sings at an underground Toon revue
joint called The Ink & Paint Club. You
can catch her in action there.
VALIANT:
The job's gonna cost you a hundred
bucks.
MAROON:
A hundred bucks? That's ridiculous.
VALIANT:
So's the job.
Valiant starts to walk away.
MAROON:
All right, all right... You got your
hundred bucks.
Maroon turns, snaps his fingers. His Assistant appears out
of nowhere with Maroon's checkbook and a pen. The Assistant
turns and stoops so that Maroon can write the check on his
back.
MAROON:
(continuing)
Fifty now, fifty when you deliver the
pictures.
Maroon tears the check off and hands it to Valiant. Suddenly
Valiant ducks in reflex to a large shadow that passes
overhead.
MAROON:
(continuing;
chuckles)
Kinda jumpy aren't you, Valiant? It's
just Dumbo.
swoops back and forth, then hovers, ears flapping like a
hummingbird.
MAROON:
I got him on loan from Disney.
VALIANT:
Aren't you the lucky one...
Valiant grabs the check from Maroon and starts for the gate.
MAROON:
When will I hear from you?
VALIANT:
As soon as is humanly possible.
We FOLLOW Valiant out the gate under a wrought iron sign that
reads "Maroon Cartoon Studios". As he starts across the road
he's almost run over by a Toon roadster that ROARS out of the
gates. When it BLASTS ITS HORN, it's the FIRST FIVE NOTES
from the WOODY WOODPECKER SONG: "HA-HA-HA-HA-HA". Valiant
jumps back as the roadster passes. WOODY THE WOODPECKER'S
behind the wheel with a self-important smile on his face.
Valiant angrily waves the cloud of Toon dust away.
VALIANT:
(coughs)
Damn Toons.
ACROSS THE STREET - A TROLLEY CAR
is slowing to a stop in front of the studio. It's a Pacific
and Electric "Red Car", part of a vast system of electric
trollies that once criss-crossed the L.A. Basin. Valiant
steps onto the "Red Car". He reaches into his pocket to give
the CONDUCTOR his nickel fare. But he comes up with a
handful of lint. He holds out the check.
CONDUCTOR:
What do I look like, a bank?
The Conductor jerks his thumb toward the door. Valiant
suffers the public humiliation,of having to step down past
the rest of the boarding passengers. He walks around to the
back of the Red Car where a gang of TEN-YEAR-OLDS are
loitering. When the BELL SOUNDS and the Red Car starts to
pull away, the Kids make a dash for a place on the cow
catcher. Valiant joins them. We HOLD as the Red Car moves
away and the street urchins regard their older partner in
crime with curiosity.
