Hell In A Bucket page 4

Opens
the door.

Jody
Look at you. You look like you’ve been to Hell and back.

Binge
Who told you?

Lance
Duuuuuuuude, wat’s sup?

Binge
I think our time on this planet.

Binge sits, pokes thru ashtray

Lance
Did you finish spackling?

Jody sit next to Binge

Binge
I’m serious, it’s Hell over there.

Jody
You’ve known that for the past 17 months and 5 days...

Binge
No! I’m talking a large swirling red hole that sucks in stuff....

Jody
That is not a nice thing to say about the woman you love. No matter how true it is.

Binge
An actual hole in the room. Smells like bad cream cheese.

Lance
Oooooh, I know what that is. We used to get them in Texas all of the time.

Binge
What are they?

Lance
We just call them “Hell Holes” You haven’t been throwing anything in it have you?

Binge
OH NO! No, no, no. I’d never do that, Why?

Lance
Don’t ask.

Binge
Do you know how to get rid of it?

Lance
Yea, it’s easy.

Binge
Tell me!

Lance
No. I better do it.

Binge
There’s these bat things flying around...

Lance
Oh, that’s not good.

Binge
Come on let’s go!

Lance
Ok, maybe I’ll swing by this weekend.

Binge
What?! I’m asking you now!

Lance
I just got home from work. I’m in my robe. I rented a cool movie...

Jody
He’s been “recreating”. Come on Lance! I’ve never seen Hell.

Lance
You can’t really see into Hell...

Jody
I meant her condo.

Lance
(whinny voice)
Honeeeeeeeeey, I’m tired.

Binge
Oh great! The fate of humanity rests on the shoulders of Cheech and Chong.

Jody
We can hit the drive thru at Keysburger-Rama.

Lance
Weeeeeell, ok. I have to get a few things together.

Binge
Ok, see you in five or ten?

Lance
More like twenty.

Lance and Jody at the
drive-thru at Keysburger-
Rama. It has a pirate
decor to it, in honor of
the town’s history.
Sign in background
points to the “Sea Gull
Petting Zoo”

Jody

(into speaker)...two orders of walk the chicken planks, honey mustard and ranch dip, two double masted pirate burgers, two super sized Gull Fries.....

Lance

And a Peg Leg Shake....

Lance and Jody enter.
Casually look around
like tourists.

Jody
It’s kind of how I pictured it. Nice track lighting.

Lance
Oh look honey, she has a Satan.

Jody
Binge, did you bring about the end times again?

Binge
Well, yea I guess. But I had to pee real bad.

Satan
Now all of you shall perish..

Lance
NOT! Let’s put this puppy to bed...

Lance hold up a brown
paper bag. Hold it by the
top in his left hand. The
bottom tears out. A large
pipe wrench drops, Lance
catches it in his right hand.

Lance
Monkey wrench.

He tosses it toward the
vortex, Satan cringes.
The room is filled with a
white flash. The vortex
is gone.
(beat)

Lance
A wad of bailing wire works too.

Athena
(to Binge) Why the hell couldn’t you do that?

Binge
Who needs to know this crap?

Lance
You did. Ya’ll had to call in a Texan to get the job done right.

Jody
Are these common down there?

Lance
All of the time. But we know enough not to throw crap in them.

Lance turns to Binge

Lance
That only make them bigger.

Binge turns to Athena

Binge
How come Satan knew you?

Athena
Uhm, I dunno. Maybe he comes into the club?

Jody
(whispers to Lance) She probably sends him Father’s day cards.

Binge
Come on, I’ll show you the rest of the place.

Lance and Jody in their car.
Lance is driving.

Lance

The funniest part is, all these months you said he was making this stuff up to get attention.

Jody
Turns out he was down playing exactly how weird it really was.

Lance
Did you see her bathroom?

Jody
Where does one find pink skull and crossbones wallpaper? LOOK OUT!

Both their eyes go wide.
Lance hits the brakes.
Stalker Chick is standing
in the middle of Ocean Ave.,
with a glass of wine and a
sandwich sign that reads:
THE END IS NIHG!
Due to her protruding liver,
the front of the sign sticks
out at a 45 degree angle.

Lance
HA! This is cool!

Jody
I’ve had enough weirdness today. Drive around her.

Lance
That would use too much gas. Let’s check out what’s going on.

Both get out. Walk up to
stalker chick. Jody speaks
to her.

Jody
So? How’s your day going?

Stalker Chick
THE END IS NEAR!

Lance
Why does your sign say “the end is nihG?”

Stalker Chick
It was a FRIGGIN TYPE-O! Cut me a break! The gates of Hell have opened up here in KEYSBURG! BINGE IS THE ANTI-CHRIST!

Lance and Jody look at each
other. They snicker.

Jody
I bet I know where you were this morning.

Stalker Chick
A SUCCUBUSS has used the town simpleton in a bizarre ritual to summon the powers of darkness!

Jody
That does sum up their relationship pretty well.

Lance
So, if the world is going to end, can we help ourselves to anything in your shop? I mean...uh...for protection from evil.

Jody
What?

Lance
I can use some new gravel for the fish tank.

Jody
I do need some new candles.

Stalker Chick
YES! YES! Take it all! I have no need for material possessions!

Lance and Jody walk to her
beachside palm reading shop.

Stalker Chick
I have seen Satan! And he has a poodle!

A crowd starts to gather around
the stalker chick.

Inside dingy new age shop.
Lance and Jody are looting
candles and rocks.

Jody
You know, she’ll end up sending us a bill.

Lance
I’ll pay when Hell freezes over.

Jody
Stop with “Hell jokes” They're getting old.

Back on the street, the stalker
chick is now surrounded by a
larger crowd and two cops.

Stalker Chick
(speaking like a prophetess) and in those final days... a leather clad demoness shall inherit gift of deception and lead the dim witted to the mountains of silicone...

The two cops hold her arms
and start to steer her toward
the car hood. Dash cam view.
She resists. They use
more force, a small struggle
ensues. Lance and Jody slip
by. Lance has several heavy
plastic bags in his hands.
Jody is holding an armful of
large candles.

Stalker Chick
(speaking like a prophet) SATAN WILL BE DRIVING INTO TOWN IN A SATURN!

Lance and Jody drive away.

Scene: Binge’s art studio: Binge
is standing in front of a canvas
with a half finished painting of the
demon’s head on Athena’s body.

Scene: Lance and Jody’s kitchen.
Lance is rumaging thru the fridge.
Jody opens a can of dog food can.

Jody
Have you seen Leroy?

Lance
Remind me again which pet that is?

Jody
The poodle that doesn’t like Binge.

Scene: Hell. Satan is sitting
in a chair looking depressed
while a toy poodle stands
next to him jumping and yapping.

Athena’s Bathroom:
Athena is nervously
grooming in mirror.
Binge enters, lifts
lid to toilet.

Athena
Where are they? It’s been three hours.

Binge
They're both stoners. They run a little slower.

Binge starts
to unzip.

Athena
Ewwwwwww! What are you doing?

Binge
Uhm, taking a leak?

Athena
Well I’m doing my make up.

Binge
Can’t we do both?

Athena
AND GET GERMS ON ME?! Get out!

Athena’s hallway:
Binge is standing by the
closed bathroom door,
legs crossed, hopping.

Binge
Come on then, I got to go......

Athena
(off screen)
I’m still doing my make-up.

SFX: A can of spray paint
being shook with a steel
ball rattle.

Binge turns, looks at
dungeon door. He dashes
into dungeon.

Dungeon: Binge is seen from
back, urination stance in
front of vortex.

Binge
Ahhhhh, Woooo! This thing came in handy...

The vortex glows brighter,
increases in size and
rotates faster. Suddenly,
Satan’s face appears in
the center of vortex.

Satan
YOU!

Binge
Sorry, isn’t this the men’s room?

Satan
Congratulations, you actually managed to make Hell an even worst place to be...

Lance and Jody in SUV
driving over. Lance looks
into the bag.

Lance
They forgot the Apple-Crunch-N-Chums! Turn around!

Dungeon: Satan has Binge
pinned to wall with a fiery
trident.

Satan
You have so annoyed me. Now I shall rain my vengeance down upon you...

Athena enters

Athena
Who are you talking to?....Oh, Hi.

Satan looks at Athena,
turns back to Binge.

Satan
She’s with you? (loud evil laugh) There’s nothing more I could do to you (trailing laugh)

Binge
Look, we just want this thing out of here...

Satan
OH, NO WAY! I want to watch this...

In living room: Athena
and Jody talking in
the background. Lance
and Binge talking. Binge
is tugging at a chain
from the ceiling. Both
are looking up.

Binge
I put these up a couple of months ago. I used lag bolts into the joists. You know, she had a four hundred and fifty pound guy hanging from these and they held.

Lance
Wow! Good job. Who built the stocks in the corner?

Both start to walk off.

Binge
Oh, she bought that in New York. I refinished it with polyurethane...

Athena and Jody
move forward.

Jody
Your right, there never is enough closet space.

Athena
Tell me. The one in the bedroom I have to keep the ATM machine in. My shoes I have to store under the bed with the flogs.

Jody hits her foot on
a large dog dish.

Jody
Oh, you have pets?

Athena
Kind of, HERE GIMP! Come on boy!

A leather clad gimp
crawls up in a hurry.
Lance runs to Jody’s
side to block gimp.
Gimp sniffs Lance’s
Butt. Lance knees him
away. Gimp runs over
to Athena. She pets him.

Jody
That’s...a...uhm..

Athena
A gimp.

She pets him.

Athena
(in baby talk) He’s such a good boy. Yes he is... He does all of mommy's housework for her.

Lance and Jody look
at each other shocked.

Lance
Is Binge ok with that?

Athena
In the beginning, he was a little jealous. But after a few weeks of control-denial therapy on Binge, he got used to the gimp.

All three look off screen.
Cut to Binge playing
tug-o-war with a chew
toy and the gimp.

Binge
Gimme that, gimme that!

Gimp
Grrrrrrrr. grrrrrrrr. grrrrrrrrrr.

Lance and Jody look
at each other and smirk.

Lance
Now I understand what he meant when he said he had to feed the gimp! I thought it was a euphemism for something else.

Cut to Binge playing ball
with gimp. Binge does the
psych throw with gimp.

Binge
Get the ball!

He pretends to throw it,
gimp darts. Binge laughs.

Scene: Inside of an apartment:
Jem has a chalkboard with a
complex scientific equation
on it. Jem is on his computer.
He is concentrating.

Jem
Let’s see, if it occurred south of the equator, would it rotate counter clockwise? Just enter....

Screen shot of computer.
A large page if numbers
and symbols. Suddenly
a pop up screen appears
with a large breasted
woman on it.

Jem
NOT NOW! Damn porn pop ups!

Scene: The office of “Focus on Morality”
Dr. Jimmy Robson is sitting at a
desk covered with legal looking
documents and bundles of cash.
He looks scared, tired and half
crazed.
