VOICES. VOICES CHATTERING in some sort of public place.

ROBOTIC FEMALE VOICE (V.O.)

Now serving G233. Please report to
window four.

VOICES are broken by someone coughing up phlegm.

INT. DMV -- AFTERNOON

The DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES. SOUTH CENTRAL LOS ANGELES.

People are jam-packed into the internal maze of cubicles. It
doesn't get more crowded and disgusting than this. THE SOUND
OF SCREAMING BABIES IS INTERRUPTED BY A-

BING.

ROBOTIC FEMALE VOICE (V.O.)

Now serving B144. Please report to
counter twelve.

This is the sound that the DMV AUTOMATED SYSTEM makes every
fifteen seconds. A BING for each human being who waits to be
processed through the system.

TAYLOR glances down at the little piece of PAPER in their

hand with the number B144 printed on it... takes a deep
breath and walks over to COUNTER TWELVE. A bead of SWEAT
rolls down TAYLOR'S temple.

TAYLOR
Yeah. Ok. So here's the license
renewal form on your little clippy
board- clip board thing. Look, I know
that when you look up my social it's
going to say that you can't renew my
license because I failed the renew
test but here's the thing...I've
obviously already passed it before and
and I studied so hard for this! I
studied more than I've ever studied
for anything before in my life! Like,
you don't understand! I RAN home from
work yesterday, like, the whole way
home! I didn't even stop to look at
the cute guy/girl who works at the
donut shop! I went straight to my
house and into my room and shut the
door and laid out all my notes and my

books and turned off my cell phone and

put in noise cancelling earbuds and
started meditating so I could, ya
know, like get in the DMV zone- And
then I read every single study guide
available on the internet. All of
them. But like, suddenly I could read
really fast? Like (they mimes reading
really fast) And then it was kind of
weird because my teeth suddenly
started falling out, but-- I knew I
had to study so I just kept reading
and reading and reading and reading,
even though this postmates guy kept
coming into my bedroom with all these
different dentists. You know, to look
at my teeth! And one of them was
actually, I'm NOT EVEN KIDDING YOU,
Meghan Markle. Like did you know she
went to dental school?? She's SO cool.
Anyway, Meghan told me I should go to
Pinkberry because the yogurt is really
creamy and you don't have to chew it,
but I told her I had a big renewal
test to study for so I didn't even go.
And then she got on her pet hippogryph
and rode it away!

TAYLOR looks around. The entire waiting room stares at her in

silence.

TAYLOR (CONT')
Okay.... there's a chance I fell
asleep.
