ROGER- "Get a room, you guys."
(Mark blanches at Maureen's response.)
MAUREEN- "We have one. It's called your loft." Giggling like a school girl.
ROGER- Arching an eyebrow. "Oh, no, honey. I was referring to your place." Tossing his cigarette to the side and pushing himself off the wall, walking to the sidewalk, obviously disgusted with Mark and Maureen, walking behind him, giggling and acting like a flirtacious teen duo. Especially disgusted at Mark's shyness. "Well, then again..." (Said in reference to Mark, which we see through a quick cut to Mark's right hand in his right pocket.)
Camera angle when Roger speaks is in front of him. When Mark speaks, it's in between Mark and Roger. When Maureen speaks, it's from the side so we can see all three of them. It's important to have a Trio at this time.
ROGER- "Mark, what would you have done if I hadn't kicked you out? You wouldn't have called Maureen, that's what. For that, I say you owe me dinner."
MARK- Tensing up as Maureen runs her hand up and down his back. "I have no money, Roger. I put forth every last penny I had for the clinic visit."
ROGER- "You said that was free."
MARK- "Would you have gone if I said it wasn't?"
ROGER- Nodding his head in agreement. "I guess you're right, but you shouldn't have."
MARK- "I did. It's done."
ROGER- Pausing midstep. "Shit."
MARK- "What?"
ROGER- "I invited April over tonight."
MARK- "April?"
ROGER- "Girl I met at the Pub after you left." Flustered.
MARK- "Oh. You don't want me home tonight."
ROGER- "Just tonight, Mark. Please?" Putting on a pouty face as he turns towards Mark.
MARK- Shrugging. "Fine." Looking to Maureen who nods.
MAUREEN- "You can stay at my place tonight." Winking. "I promise I'll behave."
MARK- "What if you get...a job offer?"
MAUREEN- "Honey, the job right now is getting you to loosen up. You're so tight!" Slapping Mark's ass. Mark squeals in shock.
ROGER- Shaking his head. "You two. And you just met. Amazing."
MAUREEN- "The connection was there. Severed, but there."
MARK- "Like a documentary, it takes a few tries before it is accepted.
(Mark and Maureen turn towards each other and are googily-eyed. Roger scowls in disgust as they move in for a kiss.)
ROGER- "Ew."
MARK- Pulling back. "And I'm sure you and April will be sipping coffee all night."
ROGER- "It'll be far more than what you and Maureen would be doing." (Said in a sing-song-voice.)
MARK- Choking on his words. "Excuse me?"
ROGER- "Mark, she's right. You're tight. There's no getting past that tonight."
MAUREEN- "I have my ways, you know that good and well, Davis." Winking.
ROGER- "Yeah? Really? I'm no Mark. Smirking. You don't know Mark, do you?"
MARK- "Excuse me, I'm standing right here."
MAUREEN- "You don't know me, Roger Davis of Apartment A."
ROGER- "Temptation, darling?"
MAUREEN- "Never."
ROGER- "Or never again." Wiggling his eyebrows.
(Maureen goes to object, but Mark interrupts.)
MARK- "Hello? Am I on invisible?" Waving his hands around furiously.
MAUREEN- Taking his hands in hers. "No, darling." Bringing his knuckles to her lips.
ROGER- "Mark?"
MARK- Turning towards Roger. "Yes?"
ROGER- "The red covers the pale." Winking as he begins to walk again.
MARK- Watching Roger go with eager eyes.
MAUREEN- Reaching out and putting her hand under Mark's chin, turning his face towards her. "Honey, I'm over here."
MARK- "I know. I just don't know about leaving him alone tonight."
MAUREEN- "He'll be fine. He's got someone there."
MARK- "Who isn't worried a bit about his addiction."
MAUREEN- "You never know. She could."
MARK- Pulling Maureen close, turning her so she has her back against him, and resting his head on her shoulder. "Are you glad we met?"
MAUREEN- "Yes, darling. I am."
MARK- "I've..." pausing.
MAUREEN- "What is it?"
MARK- "I've never felt this way before."
MAUREEN- "You're not going to be sick or something, are you?" Frowning and starting to pull away.
MARK- Holding her tightly against him. "No, towards you. I've never felt this way for any girl before."
MAUREEN- Blushing. "You're making me blush."
MARK- "Sorry." Blushing himself.
MAUREEN- "Don't be." Leaning back and kissing him again.
When she pulls back and the music begins, the angle is from behind Maureen when Mark speaks, and behind Mark when Maureen speaks.
MAUREEN-
I can feel it. The start of something new.
MARK-
I can feel it, a future with you.
MAUREEN-
Holding you here in my arms, I promise you no harm.
MARK-
No, no, I promise you my heart.
MAUREEN & MARK-
This is the start...of something new!
MARK-
The moment our eyes met...the way you walked on the street. I knew I had to meet, meet, meet, meet you.
MAUREEN-
From the wall, I knew that I had to meet, meet, meet you.
MARK & MAUREEN-
And now we've met, and it can bet that this will last for I feel something new is arising.
Something new is upcoming.
The start of something new!
MARK-
No one before you could match up to how I'm feeling now.
MAUREEN-
Before you I knew only blue. Only blue!
MARK & MAUREEN-
How I got along without you, I cannot suffice to say.
How I lived a life without you, I also cannot say.
I don't care about the past. I only wish this to last!
MARK-
I know it stands true. Only you.
MAUREEN-
Only you!
MARK & MAUREEN-
The start of something new!
(They embrace, kissing hungrily.)
MARK- licking his lips. "Umm..."
MAUREEN- Taking his right hand in her left. "No need to rush, darling. Take it slow." Smiling fondly. "Let's go out to eat."
