Best Friend Paulie

INT. BACKSTAGE OF ARENA, PETER PALHOVEN’S DRESSING ROOM – EARLT EVENING

The loud SOUND of the ambitious CROWD can be HEARD, in the DRESSING ROOM.

The Dressing Room is CLEAN, with the acceptation of PETER’S MAKEUPDESK.

PETER is sitting BEHIND the MAKEUPDESK, making final preparations.

Next to the room’s ENTRANCE stands PAULIE – To DESCRIBE PAULIE, he is a FRIENDLY, ENTHUSIASTIC, ALWAYS SMILING individual never finding that he is actual a NOBODY, BELIEVEING he helps out when he actually TAGS along with Peter.

PAULIE(anxiously)
               So, This is it, right?

PETER is still busy PREPARING

PETER
               It is

PAULIE
               Together we made it, right?

PETER is still busy PREPARING

PAULIE
               Together we made you make it, right?

PETER is still busy PREPARING

PAULIE (anxiously)
               You made it, right?

PETER finally stops doing make up and FACES PAULIE, LOOKING UNIMPRESSED

PETER
               Have you ever considered yourself?

PAUL (confused)
               What do you..?

PETER
I mean, instead of following my ass around have you ever thought of yourself, what do you want to do?
PAUL is CONFUSED and starting to feel HEARTBROKEN, from he is being told.

PETER STANDS UP from behind his MAKEUPDESK, almost READY to go on stage.

PETER
Look, you’re an nice guy, but you live oblique shape of a world, thinking you’ve done the best for people when really you just tag along with them thinking you are a part of it.

PAULIE is STRATING to get ANGRY and DISSTRESSED

PETER
I have issues, with you always being present, breathing down my neck thinking your so important, I wouldn’t mind if you stayed away from me for a while.

PETER BRUSHES RIGHT PAST PAULIE to the ENTRANCE of the MAKEUP ROOM, towards the loud crying on stage.


PAULIE is still seen standing SAD next to the ENTRANCE hearing all the loud SCREAMS of enthusiasm and excitement.
