Goddamn--it's Friday

for J.G.B. & A.C.

Harry, Mark, and John are at some pary, some of these weird places in the space time continuum where things happen, people cop in and make out. Now, everybody is waiting for Worl War III to start. "It's about time for a sequel," someone says. "Yeah," Mark agrees, "given how successful number two was."
Another five minutes (or maybe two hours) pass and still: no World War. Change of subject then."Hey, John--Why don't you tell us about that time when you went backpacking through ... what was it? Wonderland?" Alice asks. That girl is an obnoxious bitch. Nobody really remembers who brought her along in the first place. (It was Harry, but he'd deny it thrice before dawn, if necessary.) Rumor has it she never really got over being molested as a child. Still, even her therapists hate her (all of them).
This moment a machinery starts its procedure, wheels start turning, levers click in place and vault release steaming pressure, but not a sound is heard. Mark's features freeze and he turns on the spot, it seems, without moving his legs (without actually walking that is) and disappears off screen.
Cast for this scene: Alice - Scarlet Johanson, John - Jim Carrey. The movement might need to be done with CGI in PP or some camera trick. Gondry is not available, unfortunately. Other negotiations are still pending.

Some awful hiphop track is playing on the stereo at that moment --that needs to be changed to something emo or so that implies meaning. (Too bad that in "real life" meaning is not even implied, most of the time at least.) The camera zooms out, we see the crowd without any familar face, everywahn talking in their accents foreign, local, and non-descript. Whiteout (-> 6'u.)
