danielle
i’ve had the most strangely reoccurring dreams over the last week. and uh, it’s like of my wedding, but nothing is going right. everything’s a disaster. my guests are all there, it’s all of my real life friends. they all look gorgeous. they’re all like fully done up in their gowns that they’re probably going to wear to the wedding, my family is there. but suddenly i realize i should’ve been married by now, and i’m not married, i’m not in my wedding dress. i’m all alone, in this giant area where i see my guests being served their c-cktail appetizers off of paper plates. everyone seems to be having a great time, but they’re eating off of paper plates. but i am wearing cargo pants. army cargo pants
donald
like old navy?
danielle
yeah, exactly. like old navy cargo pants. i don’t own old navy cargo pants. i’m not even sure where that came from in my head, but i’m wearing that with a t shirt and i’m supposed to be getting married. my hair’s not done, my makeup’s not done. and my mom comes in and asks me, “why aren’t you getting ready for your wedding?” and i’m like “oh, i will be, i will be” but suddenly i’m smoking a cigarette, i even don’t know why i’m smoking a cigarette, but in my mind i also that i’m three or four weeks pregnant. horrible, right? so i tell my mom, “mom, you don’t know this, but i’m three or four weeks pregnant” and she says not “put down the cigarette”, she says, “maybe you should get into your wedding dress”. it’s all very, very weird. i’m not sure what it means at all
donald
i think we have too many lemons
danielle
one more?
donald
yeah
danielle
and these two
donald
yeah, some of them. that’ll be enough
danielle
we can make guacamole
cut to:
int. piano room / ext. pool – dusk
stefan is playing the piano. his music transitions to:
the legs of an unknown person balancing and walking along the edge of the pool
cut to:
a montage:
a group of people are dancing around speakers. -ssumingly, music is playing, but the events of that scene are muted, and replaced by the dialogue of…
int. movie room. – night
donald and flying lotus are exchanging verses they’ve written
flying lotus
investing time on writing lies, slightly truth without a clue
i met my higher self, p-ssing off the roofs of drunken goofs
he said “keep the mic smelly like a rotten tooth”
and all your fears forgotten when the cap is in the booth
i’m an angel in an agony of flame
feathers growing at the mention of my name, reinvention of my shame
i’m a slave to the darkness of my innermost cave
and all these words i hold tighter than a glowstick at a rave, n-gga
dance around the camp fire, b-ttnaked, blowing trees
could give a single f-ck if somebody sees, i’m free
red “v” bleed out a scarlet letter, k!ll a king
and i’ll sitting ready for whatever weather the seasons sing
picking up expensive habits, chasing after little rabbits
hope they lead me to a place of magic
sad at all the times i never thought i had it
losing all these memories, and y’all doubt it matters…
patterns
donald
mouth to a pellegrino, bottle color of envy
who the f-ck is gambino, i hand a waitress a benji
to act like she never met me, i’m saying though
they want the game changed when your sh-t on the radio
fruit was so hanging low, i didn’t even bother
she tryna land obama’s, man she get it from her mama
i don’t blame her, i tame her, give her something to visualize
on my couch watching dvr’d “american dad”
man those new celine bags are so to die for
i’m in that porsche on prozac, them suicide doors
watch her walk as the death becomes her
cause mrs. tarantino k!ll bills, no wonder
my heaven is the present, so maybe this is it
pray to god every night to make me believe he exists
drink a fifth of vodka, i don’t need no sponsor
heard a preacher holler, make him hold these souls
and that’s when like the hook…
flying lotus
yeah that’s tight. i like that
you know you got a little…
he points to donald’s nose, and donald touches it to find blood dripping
donald
oh sh-t
flying lotus
yeah
donald gets up, and runs to the bathroom
flying lotus(cont’d)
wow
cut to:
int. bathroom – night
donald examines his nose in the mirror, surprised by the bleeding
he looks for the source of all the blood, and notices and obstruction in his nasal p-ssage- it’s a string
nauseated and scared, he pulls the long, blood soaked string while gagging and coughing. finally, he dislodges the string and what is attached at the end, a golden tooth
he places it next to the sink and washes his hands, as the sound of the running water transitions into a similar sound of the shower water as donald now sits in the shower
he is still, and his back is to us
cut to:
ext. pool area – night
donald and fam are sitting next to a bonfire, eating s’mores and swapping childhood stories
fam
i remember being seventeen, being scared as h-ll. getting prank calls, like crazy stuff. just like senior year in high school. had a lot of girls, it’s crazy. so, this one girl, she was super crazy, she would call my phone from a blocked number, and it was her. but then i started getting like the crazy death threats. started as a joke, then they knew what kind of car i was driving, where i liked to hang out. then they started shooting in the area, so i couldn’t sleep at home anymore. went and got a gun from my friend. started sleeping on the street for a week. the scariest thing about it all though, is having a gun knowing you might have to use it. scarier than than k!lling somebody is thinking about k!lling somebody. sometimes you can’t explain why things happen. those seven days, man, just couldn’t handle it. just couldn’t handle it. you just get to that point like why did i get here? sometimes they just do
donald
when i was like five or six, we were living in decatur, in the projects. in commons drop. it’s nice now, but like we were living there and i remember my mom’s friend. like a friend of the family. this kid like… something happened, i didn’t understand it but he had to stay with us for a couple of day. i didn’t really understand it. but we didn’t have any sp-ce. so he had to sleep in my bed. i remember in the morning waking up and he was like “let’s rub b-tts”. i was like “okay” like whatever i did it. and i didn’t really get it. and then i turned, when we turned he kissed me
fam
he kissed you?
donald
yeah. like you said, i don’t know why it happened. i don’t know why it happened
fam
did anybody like know about this?
donald
nah, just him
fam
that’s wild
donald
it’s crazy
fam
like i said, sometimes you just can’t explain things
donald
i’m gonna go inside
fam
alright, i gonna stay out here, man
donald begins to walk inside as we…
cut to:
hallway
donald is walking to his room, as the girl p-sses him in the opposite direction
he turns, quizzically
donald
who are you?
she doesn’t respond, or even look at him, and keeps walking. donald continues walking to his room
cut to:
int. donald’s room. – night
he is flying face up, eyes closed. the phone rings and he opens his eyes
he leans over and picks up the phone
woman (v.o.)
h-llo, who’s this?
donald immediately hangs up, looks down for a moment, and takes off his sweatshirt and shirt
he lies down and falls back asleep
