TOM: [SLAPPING PRODUCER ON BACK 1X] It's time.
PRODUCER: Ohmyjeezus! Where'd you come from? Tom, don't sneak up on me like that! You scared the crap out of me!
TOM: [CLAPPING HANDS 4X] You know what we need to do. Let's go, people.
[TOM EXITS]
SIMON: [under his breath to the writer] Wow. He's not messing around, is he? Wait, is this a comedy?
WRITER: Nope. All business. Makes audiences want to learn to race motorcycles & do anything but watch TV with their spare time.SIMON: Right!? But can Tom do comedy? I mean, is it appropriate for Mission Impossible?
TOM: [COMING OUT OF NOWHERE, AND SLAPPING SIMON ON BACKSIDE] Simon. Trust me. This is gonna sell. I want it funny, that's why you're here - and with a strong female lead my daughter will want to emulate. And Simon?
SIMON: [PEES PANTS SO STARTLED] Um, yeah, Tom?
TOM: Shut up, Simon.
