Page Count: 7

Genre: Comedy

Casting Breakdown:
CRAIG (22) a hopelessly optimistic, lovesick sick young man. He pines after his boss, thinking they have an unspoken “Jim and Pam” type of relationship. He is a little delusional, but in an endearing way that is foolish more than anything else.
LARA (30) the professional, yet very approachable manager of the workplace. She and Craig have a professional friendship that Craig mistakes for undying love for one another. However, she is not a pushover and can be the disciplinarian when the time comes.
HANNIBAL (25) a likeable weirdo and Craig’s best friend in the office. He is very supportive of Craig’s romantic mission and eggs on his hijinx. He is an odd guy, although perfectly harmless and usually in his own world.

Locations:
Office building with at least one personal office.

Special FX:
A song that sounds similar to NWA’s “Fuck Tha Police”.
