Our Town

Overhead shot of the desolate city. This place is so lame. Really. Will pedals past Finn walking out of some shop. "Hold up, Mercury!" Finn yells to him. Finn grabs a mitt from the ground. I can't tell if it fell from Will's bag or not. Will pedals back and Finn asks him about the softball that Will's playing. Finn also asks about Sean, but this scene is terribly dull. They keep doing this thing where we follow an extra walk-by to get from Will to Finn, Finn to Will. Finn says that Sean "seemed upset." "He was," Will says. The WB, having heard the complaints from its viewers about the lack of minorities on their programming, has one African-American woman in sunglasses walk quickly by before Will delivers his next line. So stop writing all that hate mail. The WB loves you. Sometimes Will is leaning over his bike, sometimes he's leaning back. Whatever. They recap the past twenty minutes. Finn tosses back Will's glove and tells him, "Good luck." "Thanks," Will says, "we could win it all this year." All sullen and deep, Finn lowers his voice and says, "I mean with your friend." Close up on Will really taking in the meaning of Finn's wisdom. "Carry on, Atlas," Finn says while watching Will's butt pedal off. Lord, this show is bad. Will invites Finn to the game as he leaves.

Will shows up at the field as the boys are walking off. "Polo match run late?" Sean asks. "Practice is over?" Will asks. "Ayup," Sean says like he's in a Stephen King novel. Ray wakes up and asks if this is still the same damn episode. I tell him it is. He is now watching it to spite the show's cast members. "I'm stronger than they are, dammit," he growls. Will apologizes for being late, saying that he was held up at the diner. "Oh, it's good to see you're keeping in touch with the little people." This is such a lame story line, can I tell you? Will asks if Sean is looking forward to his party tonight. "You remember where I live, or do you want me to draw a map?" Man! Lame! Lameness! Imprisoning me! All that I see! Absolute crapfest! I cannot live! I cannot die! Trapped on my couch! TV my holding cell! Random pecs walk in front of the camera again as Will asks Sean if he's "taking this act on the road." The long and winding road, I'm assuming. GET ON WITH IT! END THIS SCENE! Thank you.
