Take

 

EXT - NIGHT 


A young shy man in his 20's knocks on a door. He is scared of the world and lonely as fuck. Its cold outside, so cold you can see his breath. He moves around to stay warm. He waits to deliver the pizza. His name is Paul.  

A man around 40 answers the door, he seems drunk, we can hear loud music coming from inside the house


Man 

About fuckin time 


Paul 

Yeah sorry 


Paul hands the man the bag off food 

The man takes a quick look into the bag 

 Paul 

That'll be (looking at the receipt) £36.70


Man 

Where's the garlic mayo?


Paul 

err, I'm not sure, they just give me the bag and 


Man 

Fuck me. We asked for a pot of garlic mayo 


Paul 

Oh, there's nothing on the receipt


Man 

I said on the phone a pot of garlic mayo


Paul 

I'm sorry about that


Man 

Well I'm not paying until you get it 


Paul 

Sorry, its just-


Man 

And by the time you go there and come back it'll be cold. You know what mate just fucking forget it 

The man slams the door shut in Paul's face 

Paul knocks on the door again and waits

no one answers 

He knocks again 

No answer 

He walks back to his car in defeat 


CUT TO 

INT - KEBAB SHOP 

A busy kitchen is working away, the boss Pedro shouts at Paul with his thick accent


Pedro 

How many fuckin times I tell you? How many times? 


Paul 

I know, im sorry 


Pedro 

Can you read this? Are you blind? Where does it say garlic mayo?


Paul 

I know, but he said 


Pedro

Oh he said? and if I said I was a skinny blonde bitch with big tits would you fuck me?

Paul doesn't answer

Pedro 

Would you fuck me?


Paul 

No, Look I'm sorry


Pedro

Paul

Pedro

The other workers look and smile, talking among their self's 

Pedro turns to one 

Pedro

He drives home in the dark

Written by Byron Stead We see a bath in a bathroom and slowly pan around , we see a small selection of one shampoo bottle and one body wash soap, a sink with 2 toothbrushes, the toilet with its lid close, the pan lands on the cream bathroom door opposite the bath. Hung on the door are a couple towels . In the background we hear faint screams, shouts and frantic chaos get louder and louder and louder until the bathroom door flies open BANG!
