INT. MARK’S LIVING ROOM – LATER [Andrew, Mark, and Carol, sit on the couch.]

TV
In the spring, the hungry gator must find new and clever ways to find food.

CAROL
Did you tell Large about the tapes?

ANDREW
No, Mom. I'm not doing those stupid tapes.

ANDREW
What are the tapes?

CAROL
Real estate tapes. You can make up to $100,000 your first year. You should have seen the boat this Oriental guy had. He even had his own game show in China, he had so much money. I think Mark would be perfect at it.

MARK
Ma, shut up about those fuckin' tapes. Okay? It's a scam.

CAROL
Well, I'm doing it. I'm saving up for those tapes. Because I know what you could be if you just apply yourself.

MARK
You know what? I do apply myself every day, Mom. I work my ass ofG burying dead people. Okay? I'm only 26. I'm not in any rush. What's your rush for? Just let me be.

CAROL
I don't rush you. Okay. Then I'll do them myself.

MARK
Fine. Do 'em.

CAROL
Okay, then I won't let you on my yacht. Except Large. Large, you can come anytime you want. Just don't bring your friend here. Shit! I got to go to my meeting. Okay. I love you.

MARK
I love you too.

CAROL
I love you. Large, it was nice to see you.

ANDREW
Nice to see you too.

CAROL
Oh. Oh, you guys, don't stay in here all day 'cause I took the batteries out of the carbon monoxide detector. It was beeping all night.

MARK
She drives me crazy! She gets all baked out and makes me feel like I have to impress her. And you know what? I'm okay with being unimpressive. I sleep better.

ANDREW
Hey, what time is it?

MARK
No idea.

ANDREW
I gotta go.
