SCRIPT FOR MY BEAST FRIEND

This is the script for "My Beast Friend".

INT. HALLWAY. DAY
ED BRYNE enters shot through door way, stops and shrugs and then walks across the frame. Dressed in a black logo t-shirt and cargo green jacket and he is carrying a cardboard box full of books. FOUL-MOUTHED MANCAT FLUFF, sat in large card board box. Dressed in a fluffy grey cat outfit, with a luggage tag tied to him which is labelled ‘Please look after this cat free to good home’


FLUFF
(Struggling to say the words)
Please...Please...Please...

FLUFF
Ed, tell me what’s going on right now or I’m going sick up all yesterdays tuna

FLUFF makes retching sound
FLUFF
Oh No..

ED BRYNE stands up from crouching over box and walks towards camera, tucking hair behind ears as he walks.
FLUFF

It’s that girl isn’t it? Amoeba?!
Your mad. Shes waaay out of your league.

ED
(turns swiftly to face fluff)
This has nothing to do with Amelia. I just want to sort my life out. You know, get rid of some of the dead wood. So, I thought I’d take you to this great, fun place just for cats. Yeah – just until I finish tidying up.

Camera focuses on FLUFF who is curling his claws
ED

(in an over-execrated voice, waving his hands)
It’s called… Pleasure Land.
FLUFF
(humouring Ed)
Pleasure Land? Sweet...But not before time.
 
ED BYNE looks pleased and walks off camera. Door bell rings shadow of AMEILA through frosted glass, opens door. She is dressed in a black coat with a scarf.

AMELIA
I’m so sorry Ed, I know I’m super early! Oh my god –

AMEILA approaches FLUFF, ED BYNE looks anxious
AMELIA
Whos this?

ED

That’s-er-Fluff

AMELIA strokes the real cat FLUFF and picks up luggage tag
AMEILA
‘Free to good home.’
Some monster actually abandoned this..

Fluff becomes the man again. She tickles his chin, whilst he looks immensely happy with himself; shooting Ed a winning look.

AMELIA
..sweet little creature!

AMEILA picks up FLUFF, the real cat. In her arms FLUFF turn into the mancat and pats AMEILA’S shoulder

AMEILA
Well – Fluff, I guess that makes me your new mummy now.

AMEILA rubs her head against FLUFF
FLUFF
(to Ed)

You lying Cu...



The End. Credits Roll.
