CUTS FROM BLACK SCREEN TO FIRST SHOT
EXT: Afternoon Autumn Day — Sunny day, clear skies, Blackheath common on a bench in the middle of the grass, no roads or cars too near. We see two boys, TOM and BRUCEY sitting on a bench having a conversation. When we cut to a close up shot of them we hear a text notification.
IMESSAGE/WhatsAPP TEXT SOUND
BRUCEY:
What's that Tommy boy?
Jaw drops from Tom, excited look on his face
Tom:
Mate, you’ll never guess who’s just secured a date with Grace…
Brucey:
Oh shit! When is it? Where are you gonna go — What are you gonna wear mate?!
Brucey is almost more excited than Tom
Tom:
She said something about lunch (or cinema) tomorrow afternoon at like 12:30. God knows what I’m gonna wear but it has to be SICK! Dress to impress you know?
Brucey:
As always mate, as always. You’re gonna be fine, what could go wrong?
Tom: You’re right, I got this!
Immediately after this sentence we see brucey pull a crate of beer from his bag, with an excited, slightly delirious smile across his face. We follow Tom's eyes to the beer to Bruceys face.
Brucey:
Celebration time?
The boys cheers and crack open a beer.
Sound is repeated a few times whilst cutting to a black screen
