I gotta get out of Here, I gotta go judge

The miss malibu beach Contest by her questionnaire.

Thank you very much.

-he's so much fun to annoy.

Anyway, cody, this is A really good idea.

Who wrote the patent?

-well I did, but if the Department develops this,

I'd be willing to Share the revenues.

-really?

Well that's what I like to hear.

How much to build a prototype?

-well I already Have the body molded,

And the linking system in place.

But I still need about 20,000 to engineer

The steering and Throttle systems.

-20,000.

-yeah, I thought you Could use the proceeds

From the miss malibu Beach contest.

-they're already allocated To other expenses.

-what about the money you Raised selling advertising

On beach trash cans?

-samantha: subsidizing Beach maintenance.

Look, let me think about this,

-you're a gem.

-wait, hold on a second.

Morgan?

Morgan, wait up it's me, petra.

-my name's not morgan.

-mine isn't really petra.

You won a bikini contest In palm springs last year.

I finished second.

It's nothing to be ashamed of.

Oh, I get it.

Now that you're a lifeguard, You're embarrassed

About being in bikini contests.

-okay fine, my name is donna.

And yes, if the people I work with found out

I used to do bikini contests,

It could hurt my Credibility as a lifeguard.

-you won $2,000 In palm springs.

Look, I've won $23,000 Circuit so far this year.

It's not a bad supplement for A fifth grade teacher salary.

What's embarrassing about that?

-nothing. Oh, nothing.

It's just--it's Perception, you know.

Perception's everything.

I'd really appreciate it if you Could keep this to yourself,

Okay?

-well I'll try, but I Can't promise anything.

Sometimes, secrets have A way of getting out.

-can I talk to You for a second?

-actually, I really don't Want to be late for class.

-well actually, that's what I want to talk to you about.

You know, I'm writing a Script is kind of a cross

Between point break And fatal attraction.

-right, I know this.

You told me all of this already.

-right, well the thing Is, I've hit a bit

Of a snag with the dialogue.

And I figured maybe you could Do some of the scenes in class,

So I could hear what They sound like.

-are you serious?

-I'm very serious.

I'm gonna sell the script, caroline.

If you help me, I'll help you.

-really?

And how do you propose to do that?

Or the words you're saying.

It's about how she Makes you feel.

-what if you can't stand the Actor you have to work with,

But in the scene you're Supposed to like them?

-use it as a color.

That's all for tonight.

-keep trying, you'll Get it eventually.

You're new in class?

-I'm just here with a friend.

Actually, I'm a writer.

-really? What have you written?

-I just wrote a new screenplay.

It's kind of a cross between--

-is there anything in It I might be right for?

-well actually, you Could play regina.

She's a bad girl though, But it's the lead.

-I love being bad.

-anyway, it's an Original screenplay

That a friend of mine wrote. It's really very good,

And he wants to hear It up on its feet,

So I said that we'd do a Scene from it in class.

I mean, if it's okay with you,

Because it's really, Really, really good

Considering that it's the first Time he ever wrote anything.

And I'm babbling, sorry.

-you can do the phone Book, if you want.

It doesn't matter to me

Just as long as you give me What's really inside you.

Everything you need Is right in there.

You just gotta let it out.

-so, what did he say?

-he said, fine. We'll Do it in our next class.

-great.

-great.

-why are you Torturing yourself,

Go home and bed Your questionnaires.

-still trying to protect me?

-someone has to.

Speaking of protection, Why do you insist

On being a private detective?

It's dangerous.

-at least there, I'm my own boss.

I don't have someone telling Me what I can or cannot do.

-are you saying that you'd Rather I wasn't your captain?

-no, I'm just saying I'm not Thrilled about being up here

While the party's Going on down there.

-well, that's the Price of integrity.

Don't worry, I'll bring You a piece of cake.

-you know, you're a sadist, You're a true sadist.

Tell you what, I'm not Gonna hang around here

And watch you watch me suffer.

I'm gonna go home And suffer privately.

-mitch. Over here.

I've been waiting for you.

I've always had a Weakness for lifeguards.

One saved my life when I was nine years old.

I was too weak to swim.

That's when I committed myself To getting my body in shape.

-well, you certainly have Honored that commitment.

-speaking of commitments,

Are you involved with Anyone at the moment?

-at the moment, no.

-great. Neither am I.

-donovan will be at the Lighthouse tomorrow night.

You'll get there before him--

-caroline: I know what to do.

-you'll do what I tell you to do.

-caroline: I'll Do what I do best.

You did hire me, Because I can get a man

To reveal his deepest secrets.

-logan: no, caroline, You've gotta be seductive

When you say that line.

-well what if I'm not feeling Seductive at that moment?

-it doesn't matter, Just feel it.

Okay, take it from, "You'll do what I tell you."

And, action.

-you'll do what I tell you to do.

-I will do--this is ridiculous.

How can you sit There and tell me

That what I'm feeling Doesn't matter.

-it does matter, As long as you feel

What I tell you to feel.

Look, I am the writer And the director.

This is my vision.

And it's your job as The actor to execute it.

-I completely disagree, It is my job as the actor

To enhance your script.

-you know, there is a Simple solution to all this.

If caroline can't Feel seductive,

Maybe we should Just switch roles.

-good idea.

Caroline, why don't you be beth.

Tammy, why don't you be nikki?

-wait a second, I am perfectly Capable of being seductive

If the scene calls for it.

That is not the point.

-yes it is.

Hi, I'm darren highland.

-logan fowler.

-nice to meet you.

-logan: you too.

-if your director wants Seduction as an undercurrent

In the scene,

Then you need to Explore it completely.

Try to find a way to make It real for yourself.

-that's what I told her.

It is. Isn't that what I said?

-what about feeling what the Other person makes you feel?

-well it's possible To feel a lot

Of different things at once.

The audience just has to be Able to see them in your eyes.

I want you to try The scene again.

-logan: okay, from the top.

Caroline, why don't You be nikki again.

Tammy, why don't you be beth?

-you're the director.

-and action.

-donovan will be at the Lighthouse tomorrow night.

You have to get There before him.

-I know what to do.

-you'll do what I tell you to do.

-I'll do what I do best.

After all, you did hire me Because I can get any man

To reveal his deepest secret.

-hold it.

Caroline, is that your Idea of seductive?

-yes.

I mean, that's What I was feeling.

-well, it's not seductive.

-yes it was.

I wasn't even looking And I felt it.

You wrote this Material, didn't you?

-logan: yes.

-and so you've already seen It played out in your head.

All your imaginary people Doing your imaginary things.

-exactly.

-well clear your head.

Until you can forget everything You've ever imagined,

So that you can experience It for the first time,

Here and now.

That's the only way you'll Ever become a decent director.

What are you feeling right now?

-desire.

-use it.

-well, why don't we just Start the scene from the top.

-some of the girls try To influence the judges.

Seduce them, whatever.

But they're usually the Ones that don't have much

Of a chance of winning anyway.

-well, I'm sure there's A lot of judges who try

And take advantage of Those positions too.

-are you kidding?

I have to fight them off With chairs sometimes.

That's what I like about you,

You don't have to do things Like that to attract women.

-oh please, give me a break.

Mitch.

Both of you, just Wait right there.

-I'm really sorry, mitch. I hope I didn't get You into any trouble.

-no, no, no. Don't worry.

You didn't do anything wrong.

Neither of us have.

Everything's gonna Be fine, okay?

-give me one reason Why I shouldn't Disqualify both of you?

-because nothing has happened That's gonna influence

The outcome of the contest.

-everything is Cause and effect.

And audrey's definitely a cause,

And you will be affected by Her one way or the other.

-are you questioning My integrity?

-no.

-is this something personal Or is this about the contest?

-it's just about the contest.

So, I will give you a choice.

You can continue enjoying mr. Buchannon's dazzling company

For the rest of the evening.

Or you can enter the Contest tomorrow.

You can't do both, pick One, don't say a word.

-maybe we could just get Together after the contest

When there aren't so Many distractions.

-sounds like a plan.

-I'm sorry if I caused You any problems.

It wasn't intentional.

-no, no, no, everything's fine.

I can't believe You don't trust me.

-it's not about that.

I would trust you with my life.

This is about perception.

-whose? You're The only one here.

-and my perception's Very accurate.

Just trust me, mitch, she's Not going to get together

With you after the contest.

She's only interested In getting your vote.

-how much?

-what?

-how much do you want To bet that audrey and I
