EXT. CITYSCAPE – DAWN
The city is revealed from the morning dawn.
INT. ROOM – DAWN
The morning sun creeps through the blinds. Clothes are scattered throughout the room. A pair of used underwear hangs on a lamp, the light still on. The body on the bed is out cold, the remnants of an eventful night.
The clock changes to 8:00 a.m. The alarm sounds. The body begins to shift slightly; a hand comes out and tries to swat the alarm clock, but misses continually.
INT. KITCHEN – DAWN
The beeping of the alarm clock echoes through the wall. BRIAN is sitting eating a full breakfast at the kitchen table. He is wearing a dress shirt and tie, ready for the day. The alarm finally shuts off. Brian puts down his breakfast and gets up.
INT. OUTSIDE MARCUS’ DOOR – DAWN
Brian knocks on MARCUS’ door.
BRIAN
Hey Marcus, it’s time to wake up.
MARCUS
…
(Incoherent noises)
BRIAN
Marcus, I said it’s time to get up. You have class in an hour.
MARCUS
15 more minutes Mom… (Mumbles)
BRIAN
(Sigh)
Brian sits back down at the table and eats. There’s stumbling in Marcus’ room and a loud bang as he falls out of bed. He stumbles to open the door and walks into the bathroom to pee, leaving the door open. Brian looks over at the bathroom and takes a break from his meal. Marcus flushes than comes into the kitchen.
MARCUS
What a night!
BRIAN
Yeah, some Tuesday night it was.
MARCUS
I invited you to come out, but you were in your room all night!
BRIAN
I was sleeping…
MARCUS
That’s lame.
BRIAN
Yeah. I had work in the morning.
MARCUS
Oh that’s right, your new job. What are the hours?
BRIAN
I have to be there from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
MARCUS
That sucks, your whole day is pretty much wasted. Are you busting tables or something?
BRIAN
No…I’m going to be training as a security guard in the freshman dorms.
MARCUS
You look like a waiter man.
BRIAN
Heh, well I just want to make a good first impression.
MARCUS
Dressed like that, you could cater the needs of anyone.
BRIAN
(Laughs) Very funny.
BRIAN
Alright, I have to get going. Aren’t you going to get dressed?
Marcus goes over to put on his shoes.
MARCUS
Done.
Brian chuckles and leaves the apartment.
