SCENE H

INT. RIM - LATER - FILM

KARP FOLLOWS AS TWO PARAMEDICS WHEEL FREUNDLICH THROUGH ON A GURNEY. FREUNDLICH ATTEMPTS TO SIT UP, POINTING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION, JERKING HIS BODY TO MOVE THE GURNEY.

FREUNDLICH
No, no, my office is over there.

PARAMEDIC
(PRESSING HIM BACK DOWN) Sir, you're
highly contagious. You're going to get
everybody in your office sick.

KARP APPROACHES AND GESTURES TO THE PARAMEDICS TO STEP ASIDE WITH HIM.

KARP
You guys don't understand who you're
dealing with. He's gonna keep coming
back. Like those Chevy Chase "Vacation"
movies. Couldn't you just knock him out
with something?

PARAMEDIC
Not without consulting a doctor.

KARP PULLS OUT A WAD OF BILLS, PEELS OFF A FIFTY.

KARP
How 'bout consulting with Doctor Grant?

THE PARAMEDIC EYES THE FIFTY.

PARAMEDIC
I don't know. How about something more
along the lines of, uh, Doctor Franklin?

KARP
I don't have a Doctor Franklin. Would
you accept five Doctor Jacksons?

THE PARAMEDIC LOOKS BOTH WAYS AND GRABS THE MONEY.
