P.s. Finck, I'm frankly shocked and appalled that you have ventured out of the General Thread and into here, and to exaserbate that by posting as well... for shame, Finck, for shame. :)

I was tempted to suggest that Al ask "So you're the new guy?" again after the Tequila incident. But that seemed a bit obvious.

Hum - I kinda like that idea - and then throughout the episode he keeps saying 'And you're the new guy?'

Yep. But I think I've seen it before.

Edit: I have indeed: Black Books, Ep. 1. Manny's job interview in the pub.

Nuts.

Agree with some re. directions. E.G. the direction 'A VERY DODGY LOOKING MEXICAN IN A SOMBRERO AND PORN-TASH. THE MEXICAN SMILES SHOWING HIS DIRTY TEETH.' could just read 'A VERY DODGY LOOKING MEXICAN' -leave it to casting, make-up & costumes (they know what a DODGY LOOKING MEXICAN looks like) - plus it's easier to read.

Also some of the dialogue needs pruning, e.g.
__________________________________________________________________________________

AL: Hi, Ray isn't it? The new guy? Welcome to my office. Can you give me a hand with this?

BECOMES:

AL: Hi Ray, the new guy. Give me a hand?
__________________________________________________________________________________
