OPEN

Ext. Paddy’s Pub. (View of the pub)

Int. Paddy’s pub. Dennis behind the bar. Charlie and Frank walk in. Charlie has aluminum poles and a grayish blue canvas bundled under his arms.

––––––––

DENNIS:

What is that?

CHARLIE:

A tent.

DENNIS:

It’s a couple of rusty poles and a towel.

CHARLIE:

(Indignant)

It’s my tent.

DENNIS:

No. There’s no way that thing even stands up.

CHARLIE:

I’ll put it up right now! 

DENNIS:

Please do!

CHARLIE:

I will!

(then, looking around)

I just need a couple rolls of duct tape.

Int. Paddy’s pub

Enter Mac and Dee.

MAC:

What the hell is that? 

DENNIS:

It’s Charlie’s tent.

Charlie:

(Interrupting)

—It’s a tent! 

DEE:

Oh, I thought they were dry walling the hole again.

DENNIS:

(to DEE) 

We’re done dry walling the hole.

FRANK:

(to ALL) 

Charlie and I are considering living on the land for a while.

DENNIS:

What land?

FRANK:

You know, parks, golf courses, commercial landscaping. Last night we camped on a nice piece of dirt by the river. 

CHARLIE:

You meet some good people out there. Fellow outdoorsmen you know.

DENNIS:

Homeless people!?

CHARLIE:

No they’re real survivalists. Campfires, canned beans, wild game...

DENNIS:

What wild game? Do you mean Rat!?
