1:30 PM
On a Tuesday
INT. - Paddy's Pub
CHARLIE and MAC stand on opposite sides of the bar. They are playing a game of "Magic: the Gathering", a card game. They each have a few cards on the bar in front of them; additionally, they are each holding a few cards in their hands.
CHARLIE
And I will play Lightning Bolt, targeting
your Mirran Crusader.
CHARLIE takes a card from his hand and points it to one of the cards on bar in front of MAC, who takes the card from center of those in front of him and puts it off to the side.
MAC
You son of a bitch! Every damn time! You have
that Lightning Bolt every God damn time!
DENNIS walks into the bar, brimming with the anticipation of his latest scheme.
DENNIS
Alright, listen: I finally know what we're
gonna do with all of that hair cream we found...
DENNIS looks around the bar, which is empty aside from CHARLIE and MAC.
DENNIS
Where are Frank and Dee?
CHARLIE and MAC continue playing their card game, completely oblivious to DENNIS.
DENNIS
Hello?
DENNIS walks over to CHARLIE and MAC. When he gets to the bar, he slams both hands down next to CHARLIE and MAC's cards. CHARLIE and MAC both look up from their game at DENNIS, startled by his apparent sudden appearance.
MAC
Jesus, dude. You scared the shit out of me.
DENNIS
What the hell are you two doing? And where are
Frank and Dee?
CHARLIE begins straightening out his cards, which DENNIS had moved when he slammed his hands on the bar. MAC sees him doing this and begins doing the same.
CHARLIE
Frank is at the doctor's getting a planter's wart
removed...
MAC
And Dee is out getting some hair waxed or
some shit.
DENNIS
And you two are...
DENNIS looks at the cards.
DENNIS
...looking at nerdy postcards or something?
CHARLIE chuckles to himself as he finishes straightening out his cards.
CHARLIE
If you must know, we're playing Magic: the
Gathering.
DENNIS
The two of you need to grow the hell up. That's
a children's game.
MAC gets frustrated and bangs his fist on the bar.
MAC
If I hear one more God damn jabroni who doesn't
know shit about this game tell me that it's for
children, then I am going to freak out.
CHARLIE reaches across the bar and gently pats MAC's hands. CHARLIE turns to DENNIS.
