KATHY
You don’t hate me.
GINA
At the moment I do.
KATHY
How bout’ if I lick every
inch of your body? Would
that make you love
me again?
Gina
contemplates.
GINA
Hmmm, I don’t know…
You gonna get in
between the toes and
get that dead skin
outta’ there?
KATHY
Absolutely. Then
I’ll eat it.
GINA
Alright, you
got a deal.
KATHY
Let me talk to
the Babe-a-licious.
Gina hands the
phone over to
Belinda.
GINA
Here. She wants to
talk to you.
BELINDA
Hello?
KATHY
(smiling)
Hey, you.
BELINDA
(ecstatic)
Heeey.
How are you?
KATHY
I’m good..
What have you been up
to lately? Escaping
from mental institutes?
BELINDA
Yeah… I wanted to go to
the movies tonight, but I
thought I’d escape from
a mental hospital instead.
KATHY
You’re such a
naughty girl.
BELINDA
Are you gonna
spank me?
Belinda knows
perfectly well that
her mushy talk is
upsetting Gina.
She continues to
play along.
KATHY
You know I will.
BELINDA
I can’t wait
to see you.
KATHY
I know. I missed
you so much.
BELINDA
Are you gonna
come meet us?
KATHY
Of course. Wherever
you’re going.
BELINDA
I’m hungry.
Will you make
me a sandwich and
bring it to me?
Kathy suspects
that Belinda is
deliberately trying
to piss Gina off by
foregoing the talk
of McDonalds.
KATHY
(starting to laugh)
Of course, I’ll make you a
sandwich, honey-bunny.
Do you want turkey?
I know that’s your
favorite.
BELINDA
(squirming)
How do you know
what my favorite is?
Gina is about
ready to throw-up.
Belinda is really
pouring it on.
KATHY
(quietly)
Is Gina getting mad?
BELINDA
(surreptitiously)
Yup.
KATHY
Keep going.
BELINDA
(pouring it on)
Are you gonna make it
yummy yummy? Just
for me?
Kathy laughs.
Gina can’t hold
out any longer.
GINA
Oh, will you two just
shut the fuck up! Jeezus
Christ, you’re makin’ me
sick… Why don’t you guys
just get married and get
it over with?!!
Belinda is
loving this.
BELINDA
This doesn’t turn
you on, Gina?
GINA
No, it doesn’t.
It makes me
wanna puke.
BELINDA
But I haven’t had a
chance to ask Kathy
my all important
question.
Gina just
looks at
her afraid of
what’s coming
next.
BELINDA
I wanna know if she’ll
join me and Myles
in bed together.
Gina is
still looking
at her in
disgust.
However, she’s
starting to
catch on.
BELINDA
Just imagine, Gina..
The three of us in bed
together.. Having hot,
passionate sex with each
other.. In every position
possible… Myles can lie on
his back while Kathy sits on…
GINA
Alright, stop it!!
I don’t wanna hear any more!
I actually believe you
three would do that!
Belinda is
cracking-up.
KATHY
(curiously excited)
Are we really gonna
have a threesome?
BELINDA
No.. I was just reminding
Gina to stop butting-in to
our conversations.
GINA
I wasn’t butting-in!!!
I didn’t say a fucking word!!
You started it with all
your mmm-mmm-mmm.
KATHY
(getting back to things)
Cuz’ I’m gonna need you
to finish that sentence..
What, exactly, will
I be sitting on? Will you and
I be facing each other?
BELINDA
Eww, Kathy, gross…
I don’t want you touching
my husband. He might
like it too much.
KATHY
Are you sure?
Cuz’ I can touch him gooood.
I can touch him
reeeaaal gooood.
BELINDA
Alright, stop it.
Why do you always have to
take things to the next level?
KATHY
Cuz’ I’ll expire
if I don’t.
GINA
You two need to get off the
phone. We’re wanted
fugitives, remember?
BELINDA
Gina says we have to get off
the phone because we’re
wanted fugitives.
KATHY
Gina can suck my ass.
BELINDA
Kathy says you can suck her
ass. Right in the bung-hole.
GINA
Just tell her to meet us at the
warehouse, pronto. Tell her to
get there as fast as she can.
BELINDA
Gina says to meet
us at the warehouse.
KATHY
Omigod!! If I have to
hear about that warehouse
one more time, I’m gonna
shoot myself! What fucking
warehouse is she talkin’
about? There’s more than
one, ya’ know!
BELINDA
(to Gina)
She doesn’t know which
one you’re talking about.
GINA
The one on 15th Street!
BELINDA
The one on 15th Street.
KATHY
15th Street!! Belinda, that’s
in a totally..
shit-fuck neighborhood!
I’m not goin’ down there at
this time of night!
BELINDA
(to Gina)
She’s not coming.
GINA
Here, gimme that
fuckin’ phone.
Belinda hands
the phone over
to Gina.
GINA
Hey!! Twat-lover !!
Meet us at the warehouse
on 15th Street! What is
your fuckin’ problem?!
KATHY
I don’t know where
that’s at, Bean-Bag!!
GINA
How can you not know
where it is?! I thought
you and Charlotte do
business together?!
KATHY
We do!
But I don’t go to
warehouses..
I’m an executive.
That’s for peons.
GINA
Well.. get your executive ass
in your executive car.. and get
over to the warehouse as fast
as you can.
KATHY
(flustered)
Well.. Do I have to come now?
I’m right in the middle of
Bonanza… Little Joe just got
attacked by a mountain lion.
GINA
(stunned)
Why.. are you being such an
unbelievable cunt about this?
Can’t you see what we’re
involved in here?
KATHY
I’m not being a cunt, Gina…
I just don’t wanna drive down
to a shitty neighborhood in
the middle of the night, that’s all.
BELINDA
What’s wrong?
Gina cups the
mouthpiece
with her leg.
GINA
(to Belinda)
Can you believe this bitch?
She doesn’t want to come
now because she’s right in
the middle of Bonanza.
BELINDA
Yeah, she likes Bonanza…
I think it reminds her
of home.
GINA
(calmly)
Yes.. you have to
come now.
KATHY
Do I have to take
the freeway?
GINA
Yes, you have to take
the freeway! How else
are you gonna get here?!
KATHY
Where do I get off?
GINA
Get off on 15B…
It’s by Hooper Avenue.
Kathy starts to
jot down the
information.
KATHY
15B… Hooper Avenue…
Why can’t you just come
here? To my house?
GINA
Why?
KATHY
Cuz’ I’ll get lost if I go
down there.. You may
never see me again.
Gina can sense
that Kathy is
stressed-out.
She decides to
act like a trooper
and bail her out.
GINA
Alright, alright, honey…
We’ll come to your
house.
KATHY
You will?
GINA
If that makes you feel
better.. then.. yeah..
We’ll come to your house.
KATHY
(relieved)
Thank you, Gina…
Do you want me to
make some lemon
squares?
Once again,
Gina is bowled-over
by Kathy’s sense
of humor.
GINA
No, don’t bother with
treats, hon… Kathy, my
love… try and understand
what we’re up against…
Belinda is an escaped
fugitive from a mental
facility, and I helped her
do it… I also hit a car in
the parking lot.
KATHY
You what?!
GINA
I hit a car in the parking lot
of the hospital and I took
off… The security guard saw
me do it… I’m in a lot of
trouble, Kath.
