- Eli
- INT. ELLIS'S APARTMENT - DAY
- Ellis puts his gun in its holster. Kayla looks at Ellis with
- disgust.
- KAYLA
- You're fucking disgusting Ellis.
- ELLIS (V.O.)
- And calling you a woman is a
- disservice to actual women.
- Ellis steps out of the room.
- KAYLA
- Are you even going to tell her what
- you did?
- ELLIS (O.S.)
- I'll be more honest than you sure
- as shit have ever been.
- KAYLA
- All you want to do is fuck her,
- Ellis! Don't come crying to me when
- this shit blows up in your face.
- Ellis comes back.
- ELLIS
- She offered. Go fuck yourself.
- Ellis steps out of the apartment into
- INT. ELLIS'S CAR - DAY
- Ellis starts his car, then puts the directions in for Payson,
- Arizona. He eyes his gun.
- ELLIS (V.O.)
- I really hope Ronnie doesn't have
- an ambush set up for me.
- Ellis takes a deep breath then exhales. He closes his eyes,
- opens them, then puts his car in gear and drives off.
- CUT TO:
- EXT. FREEWAY - DAY
- ELLIS (V.O.)
- How do I know she won't like me?
- How do I know this isn't some
- elaborate ambush?
- EXT. MOUNTAIN FOREST ROAD - DAY
- Ellis's car passes a sign that reads, "Now entering Payson".
- INT. ELLIS'S CAR - DAY
- Ellis carries a look of discomfort.
- ELLIS
- Let's do this.
- EXT. NEIGHBORHOOD - DAY
- Ellis's car drives in.
- Cait stands there.
- Ellis rolls his window down, then looks in front of him, then
- behind him.
- CAIT
- Hi Ellis!
- Ellis takes another moment to look behind him, then back in
- front of him once more.
- ELLIS
- This isn't an ambush?
- CAIT
- Wait, what?
- ELLIS
- Uh. Don't worry about it. It's good
- to see you, Cait.
- Cait smiles.
- CAIT
- You too, Ellis.
- Cait hugs Ellis. The whole situation feels awkward for Ellis
- as he carries a look of discomfort.
- CAIT
- It's good to see you.
- Ellis hugs her back, still uncomfortable.
- ELLIS
- Yeah, it is.
- CAIT
- You okay, sweetie?
- ELLIS
- It's weird, sorry.
- The two let each other go.
- CAIT
- What is?
- ELLIS
- Last time we talked, you were
- holding Ronnie and frankly...
- Ellis looks down in shame.
- ELLIS
- I need to admit some things that
- have been bothering me.
- CAIT
- Like? Come on, you didn't suck off
- Ronnie did you?
- Ellis's eyes widen.
- ELLIS
- Yeah.
- Cait gives a look of horror, then grins.
- CAIT
- How'd it taste?
- ELLIS
- Oh, fuck you. If you really want to
- know, terrible. Go to hell, Cait.
- CAIT
- Alright, better question, why and
- when?
- ELLIS
- I was lonely and in a bad place. I
- guess the bad situation got the
- both of us. It was when you were in
- Mesa with friends. I'm sorry, Cait.
- The two stand in silence.
- ELLIS (V.O.)
- She fucking hates my guts and can I
- blame her? I literally destroyed
- their relationshi-
- Cait sighs.
- CAIT
- Ellis...
- ELLIS
- Cait, I'm sorry. I'll go home and
- all and you won't ever have to
- worry about me-
- CAIT
- Shut the fuck up, Ellis.
- Cait grabs Ellis by the hand.
- ELLIS
- What?
- CAIT
- I forgive you.
- ELLIS
- Don't you want a few days to think
- this over? How do you know I'm not
- fucking with you here?
- CAIT
- Ellis, sweetie. You're a lot of
- things. Depressed, clingy, riddled
- with abandonment issues, got the
- sense of humor of someone whose
- been beaten by their dad...
- Ellis's eyes widen.
- ELLIS
- Uh... Yeah.
- CAIT
- You got shit wrong with you. But
- you? A liar? Please. You couldn't
- lie your way out of a paper bag.
- Cait holds Ellis's hand, then kisses him on the lips.
- CAIT
- Now come on, I know a few good
- places to eat out here. Maybe it'll
- get the cock breath out of your
- mouth.
- Ellis tightens his grip on Cait's hand.
- ELLIS
- So uh. Is it okay if I make out
- with you?
- CAIT
- Jesus christ, Ellis.
- Ellis leans in and the two hold each other in a kiss.
