INT. Office - Moments later.
Donnie hurriedly walks through the building up the stairs and around the corner, through the lobby and over to his cubicle and starts to gather up some of his belongings. Jake approaches.
JAKE
Hey man...
DONNIE (startled)
Whoa, oh hey Jake.
JAKE
So...how'd the meeting go?
DONNIE
...Fantastic! They were truly blown away.
JAKE
Is that right? How come I wasn't invited to the presentation Don?
DONNIE
Ohhh, are you feeling left out Jakey? Look, don't take these shit projects so personally okay? It's just work man. I can handle those fools myself. You should be thanking me for freeing up your afternoon...instead you're still here worrying.
JAKE
But, that's not the point--
DONNIE (interrupting)
Tell you what - let's go out for drinks - on me. I'll tell you all about how the presentation went, so you can feel more "involved."
JAKE
You're such a pompous ass.
DONNIE
I'm serious man, let's go!
JAKE
Nah man, I'm gonna stick around here for a while.
DONNIE
Jake, the working day is done. Look around you. Do you want to become one of these drones? You follow my lead and maybe you'll be somebody someday.
JAKE
I know what you're saying, but it's not even like that.
DONNIE
What is it then?
JAKE
Maybe I have date tonight.
DONNIE (laughing)
You do? Sheeeeit, that's all you had to say... Is she hot? Ooo, I want to hear all about her.
JAKE (pauses)
...yeah, I'd say this is a good one......you'd probably dig her the most.
Donnie is not really listening as he is distracted by the group of people walking at the far end of the building.
DONNIE
Ok well, I'm outta here then. Good luck tonight!
Donnie, hands full, casually slips out the back door of the office.
