ACT TWO
Scene J
FADE IN.
INT. INSIDE OF A
CAR-DAY
(BUCKY BUTLER, STEVE BUTLER, SPOTTY)
STEVE BUTLER IS DRIVING
A CAR WHILE BUCKY BUTLER IS SITTING NEXT TO HIM IN THE FRONT SEAT WHILE SPOTTY
IS SITTING IN THE BACKSEAT
STEVE BUTLER
(YELLING) Move it lady, my kid’s
got to catch a train!
BUCKY BUTLER
Don’t worry Dad. It’s 10:12
and my train doesn’t come until
11:09, we have time to kill.
STEVE BUTLER
(YELLING) Why the hell did we
take
this road. There’s always so
much
traffic on this road.
SPOTTY
Actually, it wasn’t that bad
yesterday.
This road’s normally pretty
slow. In fact,
this was the same amount of
traffic as last
time we headed to class. What’s
Grandpa
talking about, Dad?
STEVE BUTLER
So how have things been since
the
move?
BUCKY BUTLER
Well the house is still a
bit of a mess, but we’re getting
there. Also Dad, you were
supposed
to make a right turn back there.
STEVE BUTLER
(YELLING) Son of a gun!
SPOTTY
Grandpa’s father is a gun? Cool!
Hey Dad, tell him his grandson is a
talking dog. Wow, our family is
weird.
BUCKY BUTLER
(SIGHING) Spotty can you please be
quiet.
I don’t want to make my Dad angry.
And you
don’t want to deal with two angry
Dads right
now!
STEVE BUTLER & SPOTTY
(AT THE SAME TIME) What!
BUCKY BUTLER
Nothing Dad!
STEVE BUTLER
Huh, thought you said something. I
guess
you were just talking to yourself
again.
You need to learn to control your
blurting,
son.
BUCKY BUTLER
Sure thing, Dad. So what’s new?
STEVE BUTLER
(YELLING) That jerk cut me off.
What the hell!
Bucky did you see that jerk cut me
off?
BUCKY BUTLER
(NERVOUS YELLING) Dad! Red Light!
Red Light!
STEVE BUTLER STEPS ON
THE BRAKES REALLY HARD AND SPOTTY SLAMS INTO THE FRONT WINDOW OF THE CAR
STEVE BUTLER
(YELLING) Come on move! I have
things
to do here! My son’s going to an
expensive
class that I can’t afford here!
BUCKY BUTLER
(NERVOUS) Oh before I forget, Mom
wanted me
to ask if you could pay her back
for—
STEVE BUTLER
(YELLING) I’m working on paying
your mother
back. She got a ton of my money
from the
divorce, where did that all go?
BUCKY BUTLER
Dad could you please not bring
up the
divorce again? Years have
passed. It’s like
beating a dead horse again.
STEVE BUTLER
(YELLING) Damn it, your mother
and her whole
god damn family brainwashed my
kids into
believing that I’m some kind of
nut!
BUCKY BUTLER
Dad, look, I still love you
and—
STEVE BUTLER
(YELLING) I’m going to reveal
the Lubecker’s
secrets to you someday son. Your
mother and
her family are greedy and cruel.
BUCKY BUTLER
(NERVOUS) You know they’re not all that
bad. Yes I will admit they
treat me like
crap sometimes, but you do too.
FADE OUT.
