1. Opening: Interior. JESSIE & VAL’s apartment. Echo Park, Dawn.
ACTION:
Radio goes off in the dimness 'Too Much Saturn Not Enough Moon' lyrics blare from it.
Hand from the bed reaches out to slap the noise off.
JESSIE rises from bed, makes her way down the hallway, we see into a second bedroom, a good looking young man asleep on his side - VAL.
JESSIE’s solitary morning rituals. Every movement is a study in alienation: girl alone.
JESSIE tiptoes into second bedroom, moving to VAL’s bed, gently shaking him awake.
JESSIE
Val? you got some change for lunch?
VAL (grunts yes), pointing to stack of crumpled bills on nightstand, eys still closed.
JESSIE plucks a five, pauses, then takes a ten from it too.
VAL’s hand is traveling up JESSIE’s thigh.
JESSIE (whispers)
Bye.
Moves to leave bedroom.
Shot widens to reveal a second man in bed with VAL.
