INT. PRINTING ROOM - DAY At the printers we find Jaco, head down, waiting for his paper to print. Nick walks in, with a warm cup of tea and stands next to Jaco, also waiting for his paper to print. NICK dude you look like your life really sucks? JACO It does NICK Cool story bro. My life is awesome. I drive in a slick Beamer and I have a really cool job, from a monday to a Saturday, from 9 in the morning till 7 at night. Hashtag Loving life. JACO All I want to do is go to Thailand with my varsity friends, but my life has turned into one big day-in-day out. NICK Nobody cares bro. Nick takes his papers and leaves the printing room. An A4 piece of paper is spitted out with a large text reading: IS LIFE GETTING YOU DOWN. ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A HOLIDAY ADVENTURE? IS YOUR NAME JACO? Jaco picks it up and reads it, when a VOICE OVER NARRATOR is heard, reading the text on the paper. NARRATOR(V.O) Is Life getting you down? Are you looking for a holiday adventure? Is your name Jaco and are you the idiot with curly hair mourning at the printers? JACO (To Imaginary narrator) Yes. Yes. That’s me. I am him. I’m the idiot with the curly hair.
