INT. AFTER HOURS CLUB - NIGHT<br />

The BARTENDER walks down the bar to where Jack arrives.<br />

BARTENDER<br />

What'll it be, Jack?<br />

JACK<br />

A bottle of Scotch.<br />

As the Bartender turns for one, the only bill Jack finds<br />

is the President Grant fifty. The things he's done for<br />

fifty bucks... As he looks up with despair at his<br />

reflection in the bar mirror, the Bartneder sets down a<br />

bottle and shot glass. He plucks the fifty from Jack's<br />

hand.<br />

Jack grabs the bottle and starts out.<br />

BARTENDER<br />

Hey! Your change!<br />
