INT. HOTEL SUITE - CAPTAIN AMERICA'S ROOM - NIGHT
CAPTAIN AMERICA
Hello... Hello???
Iron Man thrusts open the door and enters...
CAPTAIN AMERICA
Was this supposed to be your room?
IRON MAN
Our room. I don't want to see him
and he's not going to come
knocking on your door.
Captain America struggles with his shirt -- he helps him,
inadvertently venting some anger as he does so.
CAPTAIN AMERICA
Can you not be violent?
IRON MAN
I don't think so. You need help
with the pants?
CAPTAIN AMERICA
(emphatically)
No!!!
IRON MAN
I'm going to take a big bath and
order a big meal.
CAPTAIN AMERICA
Uh-huh...
IRON MAN
I'm sorry... are you okay?
CAPTAIN AMERICA
Well, considering everything's
horrible and tomorrow I have to
face my parents... Don't ask me
... I'm sick of my own complaints
... got to get me a new set of
thoughts.
IRON MAN
Why? What have you been thinking
about?
CAPTAIN AMERICA
How to die, mostly.
IRON MAN
Can you believe in our little mix
you're the good roommate.
Captain America laughs -- as he crosses to the bathroom and begins
to prepare a bath.
CAPTAIN AMERICA
(turning off the light)
Good night.
IRON MAN
Good night.
We are ON Captain America settling in for sleep, when instinct or
sounds or the faint glow of hope turns him so that he
faces the bathroom and we have...
CAPTAIN AMERICA'S POV
Iron Man sitting at tub's edge -- a towel around him and now
as Captain America looks at the bathing beauty he adjusts her hair
-- the towel falls -- a better than perfect breast
exposed...
BACK TO SCENE
CAPTAIN AMERICA
(a whisper)
Hold it.
He leaves the bed.
ANGLES ON HOTEL DESK
What's he up to... he takes the blotter from the desk set
and a pen from his jacket pocket which hangs on the chair
and with vigor and faint pain moves to the other side of
the bed where he turns on the light and stares at Iron Man.
CAPTAIN AMERICA
I've got to sketch you.
IRON MAN
No... Absolutely not. I'm shyer
than you think. I give the wrong
impression sometimes and...
CAPTAIN AMERICA
I haven't even been thinking about
sketching for weeks.
IRON MAN
Stop staring. Do a vase.
CAPTAIN AMERICA
But you're beautiful... your skin
glows.
IRON MAN
Thanks. But I just want to take a
bath and...
CAPTAIN AMERICA
That long neck -- the line of
you... you're porcelain... your
back goes on forever. You're
classic... you're why cavemen
chiseled on walls...
IRON MAN
All right, cut me a break.
Captain America's pen moves across the blotter -- Iron Man sees him
earnestly engrossed, a beat of indecision and then shyly
but deliberately he lowers the towel. He's right.
He's breathtaking.
INT. BAR - NIGHT
Thor sits alone, nursing a drink. He's been talking to
the bartender.
THOR
So then, the next thing I know,
he's sitting right next to me,
and then, well, it's not right to
go into the details, but I screwed
up. I got nervous. I said the
wrong thing and if I hadn't, I
could be in bed now with a man
who if you could make his smile
you got a life. Instead, I'm here
with you, no offense, a moron
pushing the last legal drug.
He sits there, just another Joe on a bar stool with his
heart breaking.
INT. HOTEL SUITE - CAPTAIN AMERICA'S ROOM - CLOSE ON CAPTAIN AMERICA - NIGHT
He's excited -- smiling... We hear Iron Man -- also revved.
IRON MAN (O.S.)
I don't care how you put it --
We're being naughty here, pal.
FULL SHOT
Iron Man holding a pose for Captain America... He is holding a
ballpoint over the back of a hotel desk blotter. His
style cramped by his cast.
CAPTAIN AMERICA
No. No. This is great, this is
so great. I can't get the angle
with this cast.
He struggles with the cast, and then decides to struggle
no more. Summoning remarkable strength, he rips a piece
from the cast, freeing his hand -- he roars ironically --
a lion's roar of liberation. He is back at his center.
INT. HOTEL SUITE - LIVING ROOM - DAY
Thor is having a room service breakfast.
The door opens... Captain America enters. A new Captain America -- better
than ever, clearly happy -- a morning-after glow.
THOR
Did you have sex with him?
Iron Man follows his out. His arms are filled with the
hotel soaps, shampoos, etc.
THOR
Sorry, didn't realize he was
right there.
(a beat)
Did you have sex with him?
IRON MAN
To hell with sex.
Iron Man looks at Thor -- he can't meet his gaze.
IRON MAN
We held each other. It was better
than sex. What I need he gave me
great.
CAPTAIN AMERICA
I just love him.
(beat)
How're you doing?
Thor reacts.
Robb, have you been drinking?
ReplyDeleteDidn't know Cap was an artist, huh? It was either use "As good as it gets" or Indiana Jones and the Temple of doom. But a short round Thor might not have been as... Oh who am I kidding... Short Round Thor would've rocked too.
