these Are Some Of The Scenes Featured In My First Episode (hour Long Special) That I Will Be Posting On Here Soon:
INT. JENKINS MANOR – DAY – 10:21
Ed, 18, is sitting on his bed, dressed in a dressing gown. Loud music rock music is blasting out from his stereo. He is snorting some cocaine, when all of a sudden the door bursts open, and in marches Richard.
EDWARD
Hey! You can’t just storm in here…!
RICHARD
It’s my house and I’ll do what I bloody like! Is there any need to play your music so loud!
EDWARD
The louder the better paps, what’s the problem? We live miles away from civilization , nobody can here it!
RICHARD
I can here it! Blasting out loud, it’s giving me a headache!
EDWARD
(Patronising)
Oh did dums.
RICHARD
Don’t take that tone with me Edward, I’m your father show me some respect.
EDWARD
“Respect” is something that you earn, its not instantaneous. You treat me like a little kid…
RICHARD
Because you are! You’re 18 years of age, you should have snapped out of this behaviour, I’m sick of your attitude and unnecessary back-chat!
EDWARD
Oh shut me.
Ed wipes his nose uncomfortably, Richard can tell that he has been snorting cocaine. Ed realises this and quickly tries to hide the remaining cocaine. Richard rushes over and tackles Edward.
EDWARD
Let go off me!
Richard grabs the magazine with the cocaine on it.
RICHARD
Drugs? Now there’s a surprise! I thought you’d come off all this!
EDWARD
It’s and addiction, it’s not as easy as you think!
RICHARD
I think you and me need a serious talk, don’t you?
Ed shows a disapproving look.
CUT TO:
INT. JENKINS MANOR – DAY – 10:29
Ed sits down at the kitchen table, still dressed in his dressing gown. Richard circles around him whilst lecturing him.
RICHARD
First cigarettes, then alcohol, and now drugs…there’s always something with you.
EDWARD
I need something to pass the days…
RICHARD
Get a job then! Build yourself a future!
EDWARD
A job? What’s the point, my dad’s a multi-millionaire, I’ve got everything I want, and I haven’t had to do nothing to get it.
RICHARD
Yes well that’s not how life works, you haven’t been brought up like that! I was a nobody, and I worked hard and became somebody! Seems to me that you delight in being a nobody!
EDWARD
Nice to see you think so highly of me dad.
RICHARD
Well you’re hardly anything to be proud of. You’re a drunken criminal and now a smack head!
EDWARD
It’s hard to fight an addiction dad!
RICHARD
I’ve always told you that I’d help you, but you have to want to give up…otherwise it will keep going on and on until it ruins your life!
EDWARD
And what life is that then dad? One where my mother is dead and my father couldn’t give a damn about me!
RICHARD
Oh that isn’t true!
EDWARD
I’ve always been the disappointment, the shame of the family, and how ever much you try and deny it I know that you couldn’t give a toss about me!
RICHARD
Is it any wonder Edward! You’re always involved in something illegal, always down the police station or out all night with you scummy friends! And I’ve had enough of it!
EDWARD
What you gonna do Dad, disown me? It seems like you did that years ago!
RICHARD
I might as well! You have no respect for me or this family! You’ve made a complete **** up of your life and aren’t even prepared to make amend of it!
EDWARD
Well it seems like you’ve washed of your hands of me, and that just proves what a selfish incoserdate ******* you really are!
Richard drags Edward up from his seat and drags him trough the house.
RICHARD
Selfish? Incoserdate? All I’ve ever done is put you three’s best interests at heart! I’ve brought up the best I can! And you call me selfish! That’s it Ed you’ve had one too many chances from me! Now get out of this house! And out of my life!
Richard pushes Ed out of the house, he lands on the cobbled drive way, and just misses Tanya who is walking towards the house.
TANYA
(Shocked)
Dad!
Richard slams the door shut
EDWARD
You *******!
Tanya comforts Ed who starts to cry in her arms.
TANYA
Come on bruv, you’re coming back to mine…
CUT TO:
INT. Baymoore Pier – Night – 20:30
Tanya is waiting on the pier; she is holding a sports bag filled with money. She is agitated and keeps looking behind her. She picks up her mobile and phones Ed, his phone is on Answer Phone.
TANYA
(Into Phone)
Ed, when you get this call me, where are you?
Craig creeps up Behind her and scares her.
CRAIG
Now that’s the million dollar question. But when you find out, let me know.
TANYA
What have you done to him Craig?
CRAIG
I haven’t “done” anything. He’s done a runner, and I ‘ent happy about it.
TANYA
Yeah well he had no choice, you were blackmailing him, he was scared…
CRAIG
I just want back what’s owed to me…
Craig grabs the bag off Tanya, he looks at the money inside.
CRAIG
…I think that will cover it… for now, but when find him, he’s a dead man.
FADE OUT:
END OF SHOW
