FADE IN:

INT. JILL’S APARTMENT LIVING ROOM - DAY

Mike, Jill, Mark, and Will are gathered in the living room, sitting on opposite sides of the room.

Mike is reading a trade magazine.

Mark is piddling around on his Android phone.

Jill sighs. She is sitting with her legs crossed.

Will is on the chair on his computer.

JILL
I thought we should have a moment to get to know each other.

She turns to Will.

JILL (CONT'D)
You first.

Will stands up.

FLASHBACK - STADIUM - DAY

SUPER: A MONTH AGO

Will is dressed in graduation regalia. He walks in single file line.

The intercom shouts his name and his major: “English - Creative/Television Writing” and “Summa Cum Laude”.  

He gets his diploma and walks off the stage.

BACK TO PRESENT DAY.

Mike’s eyes widen as Will completes his story.

MIKE
Wow Will. You did just that.

Will grins.

MIKE (CONT'D)
My friend’s dad’s a network executive. Send some scripts his way when you get a chance.

Mark continues to piddle around on his phone.

JILL
(with excitement)
I just won a television writing contest not too long ago.

MIKE
That is cool.

Everyone claps.

Will then sits back down.

WILL
How long have you done this?

JILL
All my life. This is my tenth one.

WILL
Dang. You must be super talented.

Mark sighs.

Mike turns towards Mark.

Jill and Will stand up, leave the sofa, and head into the kitchen.

Mike crosses his arms.

MIKE
Why aren’t you saying anything, Mark?

MARK
I don’t have anything interesting to say.

The scene fades to black.
