FADE IN:

A wire basket filled with golf balls PLOPS onto green Astroturf.

A golf ball is placed on a tee.

Hands grip a golf club, testing the weight.

MONICA stands ready to swing. She looks up, scanning the horizon.

She is on her apartment deck. She stares out over the city, buildings stretching in every direction.

Monica winds up.

WHACK!

The golf ball goes sailing into the neighborhood.

CRASH

A car alarm starts in with its WOOP WOOP WOOP

Monica is satisfied. She grabs another ball from the basket of dozens and sets it on the tee.

WHACK

The ball sails off into the buildings.

SMACK

A dog lets out a YELP, then BARK BARK BARK BARK

Monica tees another ball.

WHACK

A woman SCREAMS.

Monica tees another ball, and another, rocketing them into the surrounding blocks.

The balls are disappearing from the basket.

Monica tees another ball and winds up.

BRRRRRIIIIIIINNNNGGGG

A telephone rings from inside the apartment.

Monica heads inside.


INT. APARTMENT - DAY

The phone is sitting on a shelf. Monica grabs the receiver.

LARRY
Hello? Oh yeah, yeah. So it's a classic, it needs some restoration. It's candy apple red, 5 speed, the tires are good...

Next to the phone cradle are a few golf balls and a magic marker.

We get a close view of one of the balls. On it is printed:

BIKE FOR SALE

INT. MONICA'S APARTMENT - DAY

There is a knock at the front door. Monica walks up, still talking on the phone. She opens the door.

It's a cop, holding a golf ball.

MONICA
Oh, you're too late, it just sold. Sorry.

Monica flashes an apologetic look and shuts the door in the cop's face.

FADE OUT
