INT. CLOSE SHOT - HECTOR'S ROOM – HECTOR – NIGHT
Hector is busy at his computer.
He puts the business card down.
He starts clicking, intent on some data he is tracking.
HECTOR
Hey, he is legit.
Hector reads some of the page.
HECTOR
He represents about twenty bands, with eight on labels and six others look like
they get some decent gigs. This is a guy who gets the bands that want it work.
(beat) Okay. I'm impressed.
Hector starts printing off some information.
HECTOR
I wonder if the guys will be as interested...
Hector stuffs the papers in his backpack.
INT. MEDIUM – SCHOOL – CARLOS/RAPHAEL
Carlos and Raphael are talking.
Hector rushes up.
HECTOR
Here, guys!
Hector gives them some papers.
He rushes off.
Carlos looks at the papers.
CARLOS
Looks like he came through.
Raphael stuffs them in his backpack.
RAPHAEL
I'll catch up with you later!
Carlos reads through his copies.
CARLOS
Interesting. (beat) He seems to have his fingers in a variety of pies. (beat) And it
seems that he can keep bands that work out in gigs. (beat) Marriages, bars, even
some parties and dances. (beat) We could be busy for months with this guy.
INT. LONG SHOT – LIBRARY – RAPHAEL
Raphael sits down with the backpack in front of him.
RAPHAEL
Guess I should see what Eagle pulled up.
He pulls out the papers Hector gave him.
He looks up and then digs in.
RAPHAEL
Hey! This guy could be fun to work with. He not only offers gigs but some sort
of “talent management” program. (beat) And he has some scholarships available.
That could make college easier.
Raphael looks at one piece of paper.
RAPHAEL
Okay. I think he's legit enough.
EXT. LONG SHOT – GARAGE – GUYS
Carlos and Raphael are talking.
Hector runs up.
HECTOR
So...was the information what you were looking for?
CARLOS
Yeah.
RAPHAEL
I think that we could do very well by this guy.
CARLOS
Yeah, he definitely looks like someone we could do good by.
HECTOR
So does that mean we're signing up with him?
CARLOS
Yeah. (beat) I'm making the call, aren't I?
Raphael and Hector smile at each other.
Raphael puts his arm around Carlos' shoulder.
RAPHAEL
You have noted that you have a gift for gab. Now is the time to put that gift to
use.
Carlos glares at Raphael.
CARLOS
You suck. You know that, right?
RAPHAEL
No, that's your job.
Raphael disengages and pulls on his guitar.
CARLOS
Tomorrow will be fun.
The band starts practicing.
