Here are the first few scenes from my sitcom.
FADE IN:
1:INT. GOLIATHS HOUSE - NIGHT
JONTY AND ROGER ARE BOTH SITTING IN GOLIATHS ROOM. IT’S FILLED WITH MOTORBIKE MEMORBILIA AMID POSTERS OF TOUGH GUYS PLASTERED ALL OVER THE WALLS. GUYS LIKE ROBERT DE NIRO, AL PACINO AND JOE PESCI. BUT AMID ALL THIS GOLIATH MANAGES TO HAVE HIS PICTURE CUT OUT AND SUPERIMPOSED NEXT TO THEM. HE ALSO HAS LOTS OF PICTURES OF A YOUNG BEAUTIFUL WOMAN UP ON HIS WALL TOO, SOME OF WHICH SHE IS NEXT TO A VERY OLD MAN, LOOKS LIKE HER GRANDFATHER. GOLIATH NOTICES ROGER OVER TRYING TO STEAL ONE OF THE TOPLESS PICTURES.
GOLIATH
Here! Horn ball get your pervy hands off her!
ROGER
Come on man. You’ve loads more of your ma! You should have told that pervy old man next to her to watch his hands!
GOLIATH
You mean my dead dad.
ROGER
oops
GOLIATH
No that’s my favourite picture. They look a real happy couple there.
ROGER
(Sarcastically)
High school sweethearts.
JONTY
Isn’t it a bit weird having all these pictures of your ma half naked? No wonder when you checked your family tree it was in a straight line!
ROGER
Goliath if my mother looked like yours, there would be a lot more funny looking people like you running about.
GOLIATH JUMPS UP, BUT JONTY GRABS HIM AND HOLD HIM BACK.
GOLIATH
Trying to say I’m missing something?
ROGER
Aye about 2 feet in height, 20/20 vision and a Barnet on top of that slap head. Ever look in the mirror.
GOLIATH
4 ft 11 of prime Irish stallion looking back at me.
JONTY IS SITTING AT THE COMPUTER
JONTY
Chill out Goliath. Here your woman from the other night has logged on, come on over and chat with her.
GOLIATH
Who Deepthroat66
JONTY
Yea
HE WALKS OVER NOT BEFORE HE GIVES ROGER THE DEAD LOOK. ROGER BLOWS A KISS AT HIM.
ROGER GETS UP AND SITS ON THE BED. HE SEES A SET OF HEADPHONES HE PUTS THEM ON.
JONTY IS SITTING ON THE COMPUTER. IT COMES UP ON THE SCREEN “SO HOW BIG ARE YOU JONTY”?
GOLIATH
Tell her four inches. Some women don’t like it that thick!
JONTY
She’s talking about height.
GOLIATH
Story of my life.
MEANWHILE ROGER IS LISTENING TO GOLIATHS WALK MAN. IN IT, IT HAS AN AMERCIAN SELF IMPROVEMENT C.D. ITS SAYING “GOLIATH YOU ARE A MOUNTAIN THAT PEOPLE LOOK UP TO. YOUR SPIRIT IS STRONG, AS IS YOUR HEART, YOU ARE THE MAN. YOUR LEGS ARE LIKE TINY SEEDS THAT WILL GROW AND GROW. LET YOUR MIND BE THE WATER AND SUNLIGHT.
ROGER
“Your legs are like tiny seeds Goliath as is your penis, they will never grow”
GOLIATH
Take that off, take it off.
ROGER
Your pathetic.
GOLIATH
I’m searching for something!
ROGER
Aye a set of testicles!
HE GETS UP AND THROWS IT DOWN AND WALKS OVER TO THE LADS.
ROGER
You two losers still looking for love.
JONTY
She wants it. I’m well in here.
ROGER
So she wants to meet then? Well I would be very careful first, you never know who your chatting too on those things. I mean imagine if you chatted for days and weeks on this and finally met the person and it turned out to be Goliath, you’d kill yourself!
JONTY
See what you mean.
IT COMES UP ON THE SCREEN “THANKS FOR THE PICTURE JONTY”. WE SEE THE PICTURE ITS JONTY AT HIS FIRST HOLY COMMUNION AGED 8.
ROGER
You really are playing with fire if you’re sending that. Have you no other pictures like your first bath?
WE CUT TO THE OTHER COMPUTER. AS IT PANS BACK WE SEE A 50 YEAR OLD MAN. HE IS BALD, FAT AND SWEATY AND WEARING A RAB C NESBITT VEST AND A PAIR OF BOXERS. HE IS PRINTING OUT THE PICTURE OF JONTY AND IS PUTTING IT UP ON HIS WALL. THE FAT MAN THEN STARTS TO TYPE ON THE COMPUTER. IT COMES UP ON SCREEN “WHAT ARE YOU WEARING JONTY”? “I’VE JUST GOT MY NITTIE ON”. JONTY SMILES HE TYPES IN “NOT A LOT. THE FAT MAN THEN ASKS IF HE HAS A MIC AND HEADSET.
GOLIATH
Tell her yea. She’ll love my voice. Real masculine!
HE SETS IT UP. WE SEE THE FAT MAN PUT ON THE HEADSET TOO. NEXT THING WE HEAR THE FAT MAN TALKING TO JONTY IN A WOMANS VOICE.
FAT MAN/WOMAN
Hi Jonty you there?
JONTY
What about ye love? You ok?
WE FLICK BACK TO THE FAT MAN TALKING IN THE WOMANS VOICE.
FAT MAN/WOMAN
All the better for hearing your voice.
ROGER
O my god this is sad, I’m away to sit with your ma for a while.
GOLIATH
You’re being warned one slip of the hand, any flirting or come ons.
ROGER
Goliath if she tries any of that on me I’ll be the first to tell you.
HE WALKS OUT THE DOOR
2:INT. GOLIATHS HALLWAY – NIGHT
ROGER WALKS OUT OF GOLIATHS BEDROOM AND SEES GOLIATHS MUM GO INTO THE BATHROOM JUST IN FRONT OF HIM. HE STARTS RUBBING HIMSELF.
ROGER
Waken up boys.
HE WALKS UP TO THE DOOR AND SPOTS A G-STRING LYING AT THE DOOR. HE PICKS IT UP AND LOOKS AROUND AND THEN SMELLS IT AND RUBS IT OVER HIMSELF AND PUTS IT IN HIS POCKET. WE HEAR A CREAK AT THE DOOR AND HEAR HER SHOUT
GOLIATHS MUM
Goliath if that’s you can you pick your dirty g-string up off the floor.
ROGER IS NEARLY SICK. HE THROWS THE G-STRING DOWN. HE SPOTS A VASE FULL OF FLOWERS AND THROWS THE FLOWERS OUT AND RINSES HIS MOUTH OUT WITH THE WATER. HE SPITS IT EVERYWERE. HE THEN OPENS THE DOOR AND WALKS IN.
ROGER
Room service. Would you like your all over body massage now Mrs wolf. My hands are sore today might have to use my lips!
GOLIATHS MUM
O behave. Why the top off?
ROGER
(Thoughts)
Cos we’re going to be playing hide the sausage very shortly.
ROGER
That son of yours spilt water all over me.
GOLIATHS MUM
That clumsy boy. He doesn’t get that after me. Wait I’ll get you a new top.
SHE OPENS UP A CLOSET BEHIND HER AND STANDS ON HER TIP TOES TRYING TO GET A T-SHIRT FROM THE TOP SHELF. FROM THAT ANGLE WE CAN SEE HER G-STRING AND EVERYTHING ELSE.
GOLIATHS MUM
I don’t think I can get it. Could you maybe reach it for me?
ROGER
You’ll never guess what Mrs wolf? I hurt my back at gymnastics practice the other day, leotard was too tight, I’m afraid your going to have to get it for me.
GOLIATHS MUM
O you poor baby, I used to do a little bit myself, maybe I could have a look at it. I’ll try again.
AGAIN WE SEE HER STREACH UP AGAIN ITS BEAUTIFUL. SHE MANAGES TO GET IT. HE PUTS THE TOP ON. IT SAYS 100% ALPHA. ITS VERY VERY SMALL.
ROGER
(sarcastically)
Look perfect fit. I take it somebody else left this here. Certainly isn’t Goliaths and please god, if there is a god, its not yours.
GOLIATHS MUM
It’s not mine. All women here.
ROGER THEN SITS DOWN ON THE TOILET AND LOOKS VERY DISTRAUGHT.
GOLIATHS MUM
What’s wrong?
ROGER
Single again. Just can’t seem to find someone who wont talk to me, iron my clothes, let me beat her with a wet lettuce, you know, I don’t ask for much!
HE BEGINS TO WEEP
GOLIATHS MUM
Poor baby.
SHE WALKS OVER AND SITS ON HIS KNEE.
GOLIATHS MUM
No, come on now. You’re a very handsome young man. I’ve told Goliath that loads of times.
ROGER
He tells me all the time! But I didn’t know you told him to tell me?
ROGER IS SNIFFING HER NECK AND TRING TO LICK HER EAR. HE FARTS.
ROGER
Excuse me.
GOLIATHS MUM
Better out than in. Young men today are faced with lots of problems. You just be yourself and the girls will come flooding in. If I were your age I would snap you up like that.
ROGER
If only I could meet someone like you.
WE HEAR ANOTHER FART.
ROGER
Mrs wolf!
GOLIATHS MUM
1-1
SHE LOOKS DOWN AND SEES THAT HIS PANTS ARE DOWN.
GOLIATHS MUM
Why are your pants down?
ROGER
Cos I’m on the toilet.
GOLIATHS MUM
I thought you were only sitting on it!
ROGER
No that’s what I came in for!
AT THAT MOMENT GOLIATH OPENS THE DOOR.
GOLIATH
I can’t believe this! Of all the things I thought I would never see, you’re a bastard roger. And you mum you’re as bad as him. I mean how could you. You are both filthy.
HE STORMS OUT TOWARDS JONTY
JONTY
What’s wrong General?
GOLIATH
That bitch let him wear my favourite top!
