FADE IN:
INT. SPINELLI'S HOUSE - DAY
We see FLO, a loud, boisterous, and flamboyant woman in her 30s, dressed in flashy clothing. She's on the phone.
FLO:
(into phone)
Oh, hello, darling! It's Flo Spinelli. I'm Ashley's mom.
CUT TO:
INT. COUNTRY CLUB - DAY
Flo is sitting with the other Ashleys' moms, who are all wealthy, vain, beautiful, shallow, and gossipy.
FLO:
(flattering them)
You ladies look absolutely stunning today! I swear, you're all aging backwards.
ASHLEY ARMBRUSTER'S MOM:
(smirking)
Why, thank you, Flo. You're looking...interesting.
FLO:
(laughing)
Oh, this old thing? I just threw it together.
ASHLEY QUINLAN'S MOM:
(gossiping)
Did you hear about the Johnsons' divorce?
FLO:
(eagerly)
No, do tell!
The other moms start gossiping, and Flo joins in, trying to fit in.
FLO:
(gossiping)
And I heard the Wilsons' son is on probation!
ASHLEYS' MOTHERS:
(impressed)
Scandalous!
FLO:
(smiling)
Well, someone has to keep the social scene alive!
The other moms laugh, and Flo beams with pride.
CUT TO:
INT. SPINELLI'S HOUSE - DAY
Flo is on the phone again.
FLO:
(into phone)
Ashley, sweetie, you won't believe the connections I made today!
ASHLEY SPINELLI (V.O.):
(over phone)
Mom, what are you doing?
FLO:
(into phone)
I'm social climbing, darling! I'm going to make us part of the elite!
ASHLEY SPINELLI (V.O.):
(over phone)
Mom, stop. You're embarrassing me.
FLO:
(into phone)
Oh, don't be ridiculous, Ashley. This is our ticket to the top!
FADE TO BLACK.
