December 24th, 9 PM
Eastern standard time
I can't believe a year went by so fast, ha
Now we measure how that year has passed
Turn the projector on
First shot Roger
Tuning his Fender guitar he just got out of hock
When he sold the car
That took him away and back

[ROGER]
I found my song

[MARK]
He found his song
If he could just find Mimi

[ROGER]
I tried, you know I tried

[MARK]
Fade in on Mark
Who’s still in the dark

[ROGER]
But he's got great footage
[MARK]
Which he's cut together

[ROGER]
To screen tonight
For an audience of one

[MARK]
A non-paying audience of one

[ROGER]
This is gonna be really good man

[MARK]
You don’t have to say that

[ROGER]
No I mean it
I'm really glad you're working on this

[MARK]
I'm glad you're home

[The projector blows a fuse.]

[ROGER (spokeagain maybe we won't screen it tonight
[MARK]
I can fix this
I just have to figure out how to find a flashlight in the dark
Without a flashlight

[COLLINS]
What do you two do when I'm not here?
I had a little hunch that you could use a little flow

[ROGER]
Tutoring again?

[COLLINS]
Negative

[MARK]
Back at N.Y.U.?

[COLLINS]
No, no, no
I rewired the ATM at the food emporium
To provide an honorarium to anyone with the code

[ROGER & MARK]
The code
[COLLINS]
A-N-G-E-L
Yet Robin Hooding isn't the solution
The powers that be must be undermined where they dwell
In a small, exclusive gourmet institution
Where we overcharge the wealthy clientele

[COLLINS]
Let’s open up a restaurant in Santa Fe

[MARK & ROGER]
Santa Fe

[COLLINS]
With a private corner banquette

[COLLINS, MARK, & ROGER]
In the back

[COLLINS]
We’ll make it yet, we'll somehow get to Santa Fe

[MARK & ROGER]
Santa Fe

[ROGER]
But you’d miss New York before you could unpack

[COLLINS, MARK, & ROGER]
Ohh

[MAUREEN]
Mark! Roger! Anyone - help!

[MARK]
Maureen?

[JOANNE]
It's Mimi - I can't get her up the stairs

[ROGER]
No!

[MAUREEN]
She was huddled in the park in the dark
And she was freezing
And begged to see you

[COLLINS]
Let's get her inside

[ROGER]
Oh, God

[MARK]
Roger

[They lay her down on carefully on the table, where Roger is already sitting.]

[MIMI]
Got a light - I know you - you’re shivering

[JOANNE]
She's been living on the street

[ROGER]
We need some heat

[MIMI]
I'm shivering

[MARK]
We can buy some wood and something to eat

[COLLINS]
I'm afraid she needs more than heat

[MIMI]
I heard that

[MAUREEN]
Collins will call for a doctor, honey

[MIMI]
Don't waste your money on Mimi, me, me

[COLLINS]
Hello 911?
I'm on hold

[MIMI]
Cold, cold, would you light my candle?

[ROGER]
Yes. Oh god, find a-

[MIMI]
I should tell you
I should tell you

[ROGER]
I should tell you
I should tell you

[MIMI]
I should tell you
Benny wasn't any

[ROGER]
Shhh, I know
I should tell you why I left
It wasn't cause I -

[MIMI]
I know
I should tell you

[ROGER]
I should tell you

[MIMI]
I should tell you
I love you

[ROGER]
Who do you think you are
Leaving me alone with my guitar?
[Mimi coughs.]
Hold on
There's something you should hear
It isn't much but it took all year
