That goes for you too, Aunty Deb.

AUNTY DEB

Me? What are you goin' to use me for?

TONY

Well, I don't know anybody who

Makes mumbly pie as good as you.

AUNTY DEB

That's the Lord's truth. I accept...

befo' you come ta your senses, child!

BUGSY

When do we start?

TONY

Right now. I got a car

Waitin' outside. Let's go.

PEE WEE

Hey, wait a second dere...

How about me?

TONY

What about you?

PEE WEE

Ya mean you're gonna leave me here?

I'm the guy who sold ya da Purple

Passion in the first place. I told ya

It would change your life.

TONY

Don't give me any a that “change my

life” business... you sold me that bottle

For nine dollars. I found out later that

it was only ninety-five cents!

You ripped me off.

PEE WEE

Can I help it if my eyesight

Ain't what it used ta be?

TONY

Get outta here. Go join a circus before

I report ya to the Irrigation Department.

Tony turns to leave.

PEE WEE

Wait a minute... I'd just like ta

Say one thing, if I may.

TONY

(stopping)

All right, but make it snappy.

Pee Wee gets down on one knee and sings a brief heartrending rendition of “Nobody Knows The Trouble I've Seen”. By the time he's finished, Bugsy, Aunty Deb and Tony all have tears in their eyes.

TONY

Okay... you can come too.

PEE WEE

Thank You, boss... thank ya.

Pee Wee walks up and joins them. Long shot of all of them as they leave the plant. B.g. music playing “Nobody Knows The Trouble I've Seen”.

CLOSEUP - KONWAY

alone now, working. For the first time we see a different side of him. He appears somewhat saddened. He senses someone and looks up... it's Tony.

TONY

(softly)

You come, too.

Konway looks straight into Tony's eyes for the first time ever. Words are not necessary. They leave together, walking down the long narrow aisle of the factory. When they reach the door that opens to the outside, Konway turns and takes one final look at the last twenty years of his life. Tony puts his arm around him and they leave.

EXT. ANDY KAUFMAN'S HOME - DAY -ESTABLISHING

INT. KAUFMAN'S OFFICE - BEDROOM

Round bed that puts Hefner's to shame. Built-in wetbar, stereo, a very erotic painting adorning the wall, etc. Kaufman is in bed wearing silk pajamas and gold chains around his neck. Sharing the bed with him are Mary and X-mas, two sisters whose motto is, “double your pleasure, double your fun”. Kaufman is doing just that. There is a knock on the door. Kaufman continues to make out. Another knock.

ANDY

(yelling)

Dammit! Just a second!

He gets out of bed and walks to the door.

ANDY

Who is it?

ZMUDA

It's me... Zmuda.

Kaufman opens door just a crack.

ANDY

I'm busy.

ZMUDA

(holding up check)

This just came in the mail,

I thought you might want to see it.

ANDY

What is it?

ZMUDA

The check you wrote to Anna.

She sent it back.

Andy opens the door all the way.

ZMUDA

It looks like she endorsed it...

Had second thoughts, then crossed it out.

ANDY

What? Give me that check.

(grabs check; stares at signature)

Smart lady... She's playing him

For the big bucks.

ZMUDA

Oh, come on.

ANDY

Believe me, I've been there.

File it away, it just might come in handy.

ZMUDA

Okay.

(whispering)

What've you got goin' in there?

ANDY

(doing Elvis)

Two of 'em... I don't want to be

Disturbed, you understand me, boy?

Kaufman closes door and walks macho-like back to the bed.

ANDY

How about you two wrestling each other?

The winner gets me.

They prepare to wrestle. The intercom rings.

ANDY

(abruptly; into intercom)

I thought I told you...

ZMUDA'S VOICE

Clifton's here.

ANDY

Clifton! What the hell does he want?

Tell him I'm meditating.

ZMUDA'S VOICE

I think you better see him...

He's not wearing his tuxedo.

ANDY

(shocked)

Not wearing the tux!

All right, give me a few minutes

And then send him in.

(to girls)

Girls, beat it. I'll call you later.

They start to leave through the front door.

ANDY

Not that way... the back!

He slaps one on the ass on the way out. They leave. He walks over to the central control panel and pushes a button. The room mechanically changes. The bed disappears and is replaced by a straw mat. The wetbar rolls into a wall and a juicer with a basket of fresh carrots appears. The erotic art on the wall turns over, revealing a picture of a guru in the lotus position. As Andy begins to change his clothes:

ANDY

(to himself)
