Entourage

Edited By Tameem666

Turtle! Aspirin, please.

Please.

You know, Vin, I don't think I've ever seen you hung-over before.

half a bottle of johnnie walker will take anyone down.

Especially when you mix it with half a bottle of vodka.

Oh my god, did I?

Drama kind of forced it on you, but yeah you did.

How's he doing? Any sounds coming from in there?

Last I heard, sounded like someone torturing kittens.

You know, it was blah blaaah!

Turtle, come on. Please.

We've got to help him out today,

Get him together. He's doing "the view."

He can get some solid press if he yaks all over whoopi goldberg.

- Johnny! - come in.

What's up, bro?

A little hung-over. You?

Purged myself by sunrise. I feel great.

Thinking about wearing a tank on the show

So I'm getting my arms yoked.

- you all right, Drama? - yeah, great, e.

I'm doing "the view" at caesars. Who wouldn't be great?

Can see you're not hung-over.

Where's all the post-break- up depression gone?

Leave him alone, Turtle. He looks great. Look at him.

Yeah, maybe he forgot about it.

I haven't forgotten shit.

My heart's been broken into hundreds and hundreds of tiny little pieces.

But I'm doing "the view" today.

So I'm postponing my depression until after I kill it.

Love the attitude.

You gonna love it live, bro? Only a 45-minute flight.

I wish I could, but I've got generals with all the studio heads.

Oh yeah, that's right.

Here, maybe you should bulk up.

So what do you talk about in a general meeting anyway?

General stuff, I guess.

Yeah, I guess.

Would you look at this. I didn't know he was coming. Did you?

- nope. - should I hit him?

Vince: no, look, he's waving a white flag.

Ari: guess who read the script.

Which script? The one we told you to read last week?

That's right. And it is good. It's very good.

Yeah, we told you that last week.

Right, listen, and it is perfect timing for us.

- how is it perfect timing? - because we have general meetings all week, right?

And there's nothing greater in life than having something

Specific to say at a general.

And what specifically do we have to say?

That we want to do "smokejumpers."

- but ed norton already wants to do it. - does he?

Yeah, he does. All because you didn't read the script.

I didn't read the script because you didn't pitch it well.

You really gonna try to blame this on me, I?

Yes, I'm gonna fucking blame you for it.

You said it was an indie. You said it was small.

Small people think small, so I can't totally blame you for that.

But anyone with half a sense of the business would have read it and known,

Okay, you got a script that's well-written

About the greatest fire in oregon history

For 90 pages and you never see it.

Live inside that fire for 50 pages,

Boom, home run.

Well, boom, now it's ed norton's home run, you jerk-off.

Well, did they sell the script, you cunt face?

Not yet, dick head.

Then it's still free, you overpaid undersized bitch.

You want a go, Ari? Seriously, let's just go right here.

You've never been hit in the face with anything besides a cock and you know it.

- ( laughing ) - I already told amanda she has the script exclusively.

Then tell her she doesn't. Or don't, it's not our concern.

Ari, I don't want to put e in a tough spot.

A tough spot? He reps the writers.

Two buyers will only increase the price for his clients.

He's right. He's right.

I did tell you guys you could have the script first.

- ( phone rings ) - this is amanda right here.

Listen, ignore it. Come on, Vinnie.

- hey, amanda. - morning, e.

Great news. Ed's company wants to buy the script.

- ed norton's company wants to buy the script. - how much?

- for how much? - 100 against 300,

Which is a great deal for first-time writers.

- 100 against 300. - we can do better.

- e, you there? - ##yeah, I'm here. I'm here.##

What do you think?

I think I should probably talk to my clients first to see what they think.

- okay, call me back. - all right, thanks, amanda.

- now there's an offer. - I can top it.

Let's go, Vinnie.

- I'm sorry, vince. - you have no reason to be.

You do what you have to do. I understand, really.

Thanks, buddy.

You're not wearing a tank top and fucking shorts on "the view," Drama.

- who do you think you are, richard simmons? - only gayer.

You know, I expect that from him.

You're my publicist who I now employ. So do your job.

What's your problem, Drama? Still broken-hearted?

- oh yeah, oh yeah. - shut up, Turtle.

I'm sorry, Drama, but it's affecting all of us.

- you slept with my dog last night. - I was lonely.

You're not gonna embarrass yourself on "the view," are you, Drama?

I'm gonna be fine on the show.

It's when I get home I may have some issues.

Look, your real life is your problem,

Your public perception is mine. So keep it together.

Please, I'm a professional.

You don't even have to worry about that.

- hey, Drama! - what's up, castmates?

- what's up? - what's up, dude?

- did you bring your girl? - uh, no.

We thought you said she might be flying in.

Yeah, she was gonna, but no, she didn't.

Damn, we were dying to meet her, man.

Yeah.

I don't think you met my girlfriend sophia, right?

Uh, no. I don't believe so. Hi.

So you all brought your girlfriends, huh?

- yeah. - yeah.

You okay, Drama?

I'm a rock.

$100,000? That is unreal. You did it, e.

That's just the first offer.

It's not 100, it's 100 against 300.

##against? What does that mean, against?

It means if the movie gets made you get another 200.

If it gets made? Why wouldn't it get made? We got ed norton.

It doesn't always work like that.

Why would they buy it if they don't want to make it?

- ##they do want to make it. - what's he saying?

I don't know. Ed norton wants it but they may not make it.

##vince wants it but they may not buy it.

- it all sounds fishy to me. - give me the phone.

- e, nick here. - ##hey, nick.

- yeah, so what's going on? - trying to sell your script just like you asked.

So there's no time to screw around, 'cause there's lots happening.

Yeah, well say it succinctly then and tell me exactly what's going on.

Vince is out trying to sell the studios and we have a first offer

From ed norton's company that I'd like to try to get more out of.

Yeah, well how much more do you think we can get?

- ##I don't know. - isn't it your job to know?

- nick. - if ed norton wants to do it

And Vincent Chase wants to do it, seems like we can play them against each other

And start a little bidding war here.

Yeah, well let's not jump ahead of ourselves.

Look, I read about this shit all the time in "variety."

All right? Just raise the price and get a guarantee

- ##that our movie gets made. - it'll never happen.

500 gs and a guarantee that the movie gets made.

Nick, it'll never happen.

Well, it seems like everybody in that town of yours loves our script, right?

So guess what? You make it happen.

So you're thinking of this as a big movie?

Huge, steve.

The fire in this is gonna make "backdraft" look like a fucking campfire.

- excuse my language. - that's interesting. Interesting.

- yeah. How interesting? - interesting enough to buy?

You know, vince, I don't know if it's that interesting.

But you know what does interest me?

Benji.

The dog?

We're taking him to alaska.

At least we got the president of the studio doing businesst?

- about benji? - it's a cute dog, right?

Yeah, maybe it'll be a good script.

You bet your ass it'll be a good script.

And I'm gonna make sure they have miss alaska

Waiting in your trailer to blow you at all times.

- thanks, Ari. - how'd it go?

Great. How'd it go with your writers?

They want 500 gs and a guarantee that the movie gets made.

Sound like a bunch of idiots. Perfect clients for you, e.

- thank you. - ( phone rings )

- yeah, Lloyd? - steve parles calling.

Steve parles. Put him through.

- steve, hey. - ##Ari.

Yeah, vince was to go to the arctic circle with you and benji

But he wants 10 million plus first dollar

- and a five-star igloo. - Ari, I'm calling about "smokejumpers."

Really?

Yeah, I couldn't say this in front of vince out of respect for him

But I want to buy that script.

Really?

But not with vince attached.

The script only comes with vince attached.

I'll pay 350. And how about I toss vince an ep credit

And 50 gs because I like him?

Ep credit? What the fuck?

Listen, he is a movie star, not a no-show producer.

Come on, Ari. Does vince even own the script?

Consider it as if he does.

- yeah, who reps it? - who knows?

And who are the writers? There's no cover page.

- ##listen, steve. - Ari.

- steve! - who are the fucking writers, Ari?

Could be gaghan. Could be zaillian.

Could be bill fucking shakespeare. I'll never tell.

##stop acting like a child.
