LOUDER TODAY



INT. DAY - FRY'S ELECTRONICS

A LARGE MAN in a white chamois shirt and jeans stands in line at Fry's. He plays a harmonica, briskly, with little flourishes, a worried look on his face. OTHER PEOPLE IN LINE shift uncomfortably as he plays a medley of "It's A Small World", "God Bless America" and "Battle Hymn of the Republic". A VOICE comes over the intercom.

                      INTERCOM VOICE
          Welcome to Fry's Electronics!
          Thank you for observing our
          No-drinking-while-shopping
          policy. The Surgeon General
          has determined that shopping
          while drinking leads to
          purchases not intended by
          natural law. Lord knows we
          don't want that. So thank you
          for shopping with us, and did
          we mention that we give free
          coolers to every male patron
          over eighteen?

                      MAN WITH HARMONICA
               (internal monologue)
          The voices are...louder
          today.

FADE TO BLACK.
