Fan Blog - St. Kevin - Prequel to the Epilogue, Part 1.
Tuesday, March 25, 2008
Break a Leg in fan day

Here we go, folks! Back to our scheduled program, we've got Tuesday's fan blog by our very own St. Kevin. Kevin's been a fan of the show since, well, longer than I can remember. He's one of our first fans, one of our most dedicated guys and someone we've found ourselves hiding specific jokes for since he's so damn good at finding them.  

Kevin has picked up our subtle hints of, "Oh my god, Break a Leg fan fiction would be the best thing ever" and has decided to do his own little Break a Leg story. Except it's not so much fiction as it scriptwriting, but I'll forgive him this time.

Enjoy his script and remember it's in no way related to the main plotline of the show -- this is a story that takes place in the Break a Leg world, inside of Kevin's head.

Here we go.

                          BREAK A LEG: THE PREQUEL TO THE EPILOGUE

 After much investigative work (and by that I mean breaking into Yuri’s home) I have stumbled upon (stole) this script that begins somewhere after Groomates makes it big. I am presenting the prequel of this story to you today. If you like it, maybe I will share more of it with you. If you don’t like it, well, then I’ll probably just cry about my own personal failures.

 Please excuse all of the formatting mistakes. “Yuri and Vlad” were amateur screenwriters when “they” wrote this. Hopefully you’ll get the gist of what’s happening, though. (You know, this story sounds kind of familiar…)

FADE IN:

          INT. ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY STUDIO - DAY

          David Penn sits in a chair in the middle of a large studio.

                              DAVID (V.O.)
                    You know in retrospect, this whole
                    thing was definitely a great idea.
                    I mean look at me, I look
                    well-rested...I think...yeah, I
                    think that's a fresh pie!

          Someone off screen hands David a steaming apple pie.

                              DAVID (V.O.)
                    And you know, at least I'm not at
                    another boring publicity-shoot.

          CAMERA PUSHES OUT to show a dozen cameras fixed behind where
          David is sitting.

                              DAVID (V.O.)
                    Aw, *bleep*.

                              PHOTOGRAPHER
                    You just had to succeed at
                    everything, didn't you David? You
                    did everything your fans asked you
                    to do, and it was simple! All you
                    had to do--

                              DAVID
                    Are you just going to shoot me?
                    Come on.

                              PHOTOGRAPHER
                    I'm getting to that.

                              DAVID
                    Okay, 'cause I've been here with
                    this makeup on for, like, an
                    hour...

          Laughter is heard from somewhere off-screen. The
          photographer and David look off to the side to find a crowd
          of excited people holding headshots of David.

                              PHOTOGRAPHER
                    What are you doing?

                              FAN #1
                    I just wanted an, uh, autograph...

                              FAN #2
                    Yeah, he's practically the next
                    Woody Allen!

                              PHOTOGRAPHER
                    I told you not to say anything!

                              CROWD (COLLECTIVELY)
                    Awww....

                              FAN #2
                    That was the last one...

                              PHOTOGRAPHER
                    Here we go, David.

          The photographer picks up his camera, and points it at
          David.

                              DAVID (V.O.)
                    And that's how I became famous.
                    Maybe. I'm not actually sure. Can
                    we go back...

          INT. MEETING ROOM - DAY

          STILL SHOT of Jennifer and Sebastian sitting at a table.

          SUBTITLE: One Season Earlier

                              DAVID (V.O.)
                    ...and let's get rid of that lame,
                    fuzzy, flashback look. Great.

                              TO BE CONTINUED...
