[BENNY enters.]<br>
<br>
[BENNY]<br>
<br>
Joy to the world--<br>
Hey, you bum -- yeah, you, move over<br>
Get your ass off that range rover<br>
<br>
[MARK]<br>
<br>
That attitude toward the homeless is just what<br>
Maureen is protesting tonight.<br>
[Holding camera up to BENNY]<br>
Close up: Benjamin Coffin the third, our ex-roommate <br>
who married Alison Grey, of the Westport Greys -- then bought <br>
the building and the lot next door from his<br>
father-in-law in hopes of starting a cyber-studio.<br>
<br>
[BENNY]<br>
<br>
Maureen is protesting<br>
Losing her performance space<br>
Not my attitude<br>
<br>
[ROGER]<br>
<br>
What happened to Benny<br>
What happened to his heart<br>
And the ideals he once pursued?<br>
<br>
[BENNY]<br>
<br>
The owner of that lot next door<br>
Has a right to do with it as he pleases<br>
<br>
[COLLINS]<br>
<br>
Happy birthday, Jesus!<br>
<br>
[BENNY]<br>
<br>
The rent<br>
<br>
[MARK]<br>
<br>
You're wasting your time<br>
<br>
[ROGER]<br>
<br>
We're broke<br>
<br>
[MARK]<br>
<br>
And you broke your word -- this is absurd<br>
<br>
[BENNY]<br>
<br>
There is one way you won't have to pay<br>
<br>
[ROGER]<br>
<br>
I knew it!<br>
<br>
[BENNY]<br>
<br>
Next door, the home of Cyberarts, you see<br>
And now that the block is re-zoned<br>
Our dream can become a reality<br>
You'll see boys<br>
You'll see boys<br>
A state of the art, digital, virtual interactive studio<br>
I'll forego your rent and on paper guarantee<br>
That you can stay here for free<br>
If you do me one small favor<br>
<br>
[MARK]<br>
<br>
What?<br>
<br>
[BENNY]<br>
<br>
Convince Maureen to cancel her protest<br>
<br>
[MARK]<br>
<br>
Why not just get an injunction or call the cops<br>
<br>
[BENNY]<br>
<br>
I did, and they're on stand by<br>
But my investors would rather<br>
I handle this quietly<br>
<br>
[ROGER]<br>
<br>
You can't quietly wipe out an entire tent city<br>
Then watch 'It's a Wonderful Life' on TV!<br>
<br>
[BENNY]<br>
<br>
You want to produce films and write songs?<br>
You need somewhere to do it!<br>
It's what we used to dream about<br>
Think twice before you pooh-pooh it<br>
You'll see boys<br>
You'll see boys<br>
You'll see -- the beauty of a studio<br>
That lets us do our work and get paid<br>
With condos on the top<br>
Whose rent keeps open our shop<br>
Just stop the protest<br>
And you'll have it made<br>
You'll see -- or you'll pack<br>
<br>
[BENNY exits.]<br>
<br>
[ANGEL]<br>
<br>
That boy could use some prozac<br>
<br>
[ROGER]<br>
<br>
Or heavy drugs<br>
<br>
[MARK]<br>
<br>
Or group hugs<br>
<br>
[COLLINS]<br>
<br>
Which reminds me --<br>
We have a detour to make tonight<br>
Anyone who wants to can come along<br>
<br>
[ANGEL]<br>
<br>
Life support's a group for people coping with life<br>
You don't have to stay too long<br>
<br>
[MARK]<br>
<br>
First I've got a protest to save<br>
<br>
[ANGEL]<br>
<br>
Roger?<br>
<br>
[ROGER]<br>
<br>
I'm not much company you'll find<br>
<br>
[MARK]<br>
<br>
Behave!<br>
<br>
[ANGEL]<br>
<br>
He'll catch up later -- He's just go other things on his mind<br>
You'll see boys<br>
<br>
[MARK AND COLLINS]<br>
<br>
We'll see boys<br>
<br>
[ROGER]<br>
<br>
Let it be boys!<br>
<br>
[COLLINS]<br>
<br>
I like boys<br>
<br>
[ANGEL]<br>
<br>
Boys like me<br>
<br>
[ALL]<br>
<br>
We'll see.<br>
<br>
