Characters
Benji Gray, 26, kind of a pushover who lets people walk all over him but he’s not afraid to give them back an earful. He can be a little bit of a grudge holder though, he’d NEVER admit it. With a gentle appearance, like a person that you’d ask directions from. More of a short king.

Sarah Lovely, 25, she is gorgeous and also never grew out of her VSCO girl phase (stay hydrated!). With long hair that she loves to toss and perfectly manicured nails at all times. She’s the type that people look at and imagine a life with but, when they get to know her, the dream is a little less vivid.

Justin Jameson, 27, picture your starting quarterback in high school but five years later. Yeah, that’s Justin. He’s tall with rippling abs, that he’s unfortunately hiding, and hair that somehow is always perfectly quaffed. Though his eyes are gentle, you can tell he’s been through his fair share of hardships, just none having to do with his appearance.

“The Clogger”: Age unknown/unimportant. He comes to this bar every Saturday and somehow always finds himself in the bathroom. He’s not ashamed and is a very kind man, always warning people when things are about to get bad.

Location:

A well loved bar with tables, a dance floor, and a good atmosphere. Like a hometown bar or college bar where you’d run into someone you know or, you’d take a first date. In the bar, there must be a men’s bathroom that’s also well-loved but in a different sense. There’s one stall and three urinals but the stall is usually occupied.

Special FX/Cheats/Stunts: There’s not many stunts per say but, the sound design is integral to the story.
So, the special effect of the streams has to be believable and unique to the two main characters. (Page one and page two has some initial direction for this then, the rest of the action lines throughout the script guide)
Page four: Justin must gain a water stain on his shirt- this is a cheat for having actual water and can be akin to just a splash.
Page seven: The sound of a clogged toilet trying to flush happens twice. Also, later on this page, Sarah is thrown back by a door- she isn’t hit but the force pushes her back.
