EXT. SOHO - DAY
TERRY walks past sex shops, strip clubs and doorways
with handwritten cards ‘SEXY MODEL’.
INT. VINTAGE COMIC SHOP. SOHO - DAY
Vintage magazines, postcards, posters and comics.
Behind the counter RUSSELL, 25, sipping his Starbucks,
sees TERRY approaching.
RUSSELL
Fuck me, I thought you’d emigrated!
TERRY
It’s just been a bit hectic at work.
RUSSELL
So what are working on? Anything
interesting?
TERRY
No. Just a underarm bloody deodorant.
I’m in desperate need of inspiration,
some reference, something retro, sort
of seventies.
RUSSELL GORGEOUS
This is your lucky day!
RUSSELL disappears into the storeroom.
A GOTH CHICK flicks through a rack of comic books
catches TERRY looking at her.
RUSSELL returns with a cardboard box.
RUSSELL (CONT'D)
These just came in.
He takes out an old Playboy, opens it.
RUSSELL (CONT'D)
Is this the sort of thing you’re after?
RUSSELL holds up the centre spread featuring a very buxom “Playmate of the Month”.
RUSSELL (CONT'D)
Miss Candy - 36,24,36 - a Kentucky
Wildcat Cheerleader, she loves the
outdoor life and riding horses.
TERRY, feeling self conscious, glances over to the GOTH GIRL.
