INT. HOUSING PROJECT - APARTMENT. DAY.<br />

JEROME is doing a late-minute cram on a geriatric computer<br />

from the late 1990's. Checking the time, Jerome hurriedly<br />

picks up the shirt that EUGENE has been ironing from a prone<br />

position on the floor.<br />

JEROME<br />

It's not too late to back out.<br />

EUGENE<br />

You don't know what a relief it is<br />

not to be me. Are you sure you<br />

want the job?<br />

JEROME<br />

What about you? What's in this<br />

for you, Eugene?<br />

EUGENE<br />

(referring to the<br />

bladder bag he wears)<br />

Listen, I bag this stuff anyway.<br />

It may as well pay my rent.<br />

Jerome hurries to the bathroom where, with some difficulty,<br />

he inserts his urine device for the first time. <strong>The</strong> new<br />

improved Jerome emerges into the living room ready for his<br />

interview.<br />

INT. <strong>GATTACA</strong> CORPORATION - TESTING LAB. DAY.<br />

JEROME emerges from a bathroom and hands a TECHNICIAN his<br />

plastic cup full of fraudulent urine and inserts it into the<br />

analyzer.<br />

TECHNICIAN<br />

(reading off the<br />

profile)<br />

Congratulations.<br />

JEROME<br />

(perplexed)<br />

What about the interview?<br />

TECHNICIAN<br />

(referring to the cup)<br />

That was it.
