SAME SCENE, TWO HOURS LATER

INT. MED SHOT – THE GALLEON – GUYS

The Galleon is empty. Both bands are cleaning up.

Both drummers are absent.

CARLOS
Weird. Is it just me or Hector been in the bathroom longer than normal?

HECTOR
Yeah. And his kit hasn't been touched. He usually has it down already.

HELIODORA
Hey, Abby! Have you seen Helen recently?

ABIGAIL
She went to the bathroom a while ago. If she isn't back soon, we need to track
her down. I'm not putting her drums up.

HELIODORA
I don't blame you. She is laid back as long as you don't mess with her drums.

ABIGAIL
At least we should beat the guys out.

INT. CLOSE SHOT – STORE ROOM – HELEN & HECTOR

Helen and Hector are embracing and tearing off their clothes.

Helen gets his pants off. Hector gets her shirt off.

Hector stops for just a moment and reaches for his wallet.

He produces a condom and shows her. She grabs it and smiles.

She bends down, pulls his underwear down, and pushes him against a wall.

She stands up, rips open the condom, and put it on him.

He launches himself at her and the fall down unto the floor.

They make quick love and then embrace when they are finished.

They put their clothes back on.

HECTOR
Would you be offended if I called you sometime?

HELEN
I would be more offended if you didn't.

She grabs a marker from one of the bins and opens it up.

She grabs his shirt and lifts it. She writes down her number.

HECTOR
Thanks!

HELEN
Thank you!

They leave at the same time.

Hector pulls up.

HELEN
What are you doing?

HECTOR
We probably shouldn't show up at the same time.

HELEN
Good point.

HECTOR
But I will call you.

She presses him against the door and embraces him.

HELEN
You had better.

He gulps.

She leaves.

He smiles. Then he punches a wall.

HECTOR
Great. I lose my virginity and I can't tell anyone. Ras.

He then leaves.

INT. MED SHOT – THE GALLEON – GUYS

Carlos and Raphael are almost finished. The other girls are gone. Helen is disassembling her kit.


Hector comes rushing in.

HECTOR
Sorry. I got lost.

Raphael and Carlos look at each other. They shrug.

CARLOS
Big place.

RAPHAEL
It happens.

CARLOS
Yeah. It's not like you have groupies or something.

HECTOR
Yeah.

They take a load out.

Helen winks at Hector.

He smiles and disappears under his drums.
