SIMON	Cut the shit Barnebus!
Panel 2
SHOT OF BARNEBUS AND SIMON
Simon goes on to chew out Barnebus for his lack of patience, and for once, he doesn’t roll his eyes or blow him off.

Simon continues his grilling.
SIMON	But NO! You just couldn’t, could you?! You had to be there as early as possible to “scope out the competition!”
Panel 4
SHOT OF BARNEBUS AND SIMON

SIMON	Like, fuck sakes! I get you’re eager for our band and everything, but at least take your fellow members into consideration when you make stupid decisions like this!

Finally, Barnebus speaks up, which catches Simon off guard.
BARNEBUS	You're absolutely right, Simon...

Panel 1
INT. THE DEAD DUCK INN (BATHROOM) – EARLY EVENING – SHOT OF BARNEBUS
Sitting on the toilet with his pants still on, Barnebus in full panic mode tries to calm himself down.
BARNEBUS	Alright, relax a bit Barnebus, old pal! Simon's smart! He has a way of getting here!
Panel 2
DITTO
Barnebus then realizes he didn’t write directions to the venue for Simon to follow.
Panel 3
DITTO
Barnebus pounds on the toilet stalls walls now in frustration.
BARNEBUS	GOD DAMN IT! YOU DIDN’T THINK TO AT LEAST WRITE HIM DIRECTIONS HOW TO GET HERE!? YOU’RE SO FUCKING STUPID BARNEBUS! STUPID STUPID STUPI-
Panel 4
DITTO
Just then, Barnebus hears a voice from outside the stall, asking if he is okay.
VOICE (OP)	Hey man, you okay in there? You’re not having a bad trip in there, are you?
Panel 5
WIDE SHOT OF BARNEBUS AND RANDO
Barnebus flings open the stall door out of anger (Draw this as Ren and Stimpy-esque as you can), yelling at the source of the voice (A young looking punk).
BARNEBUS	BACK OFF MAN!!!
RANDO	Gah! Sorry!

Panel 1
INT. THE DEAD DUCK INN – EARLY EVENING – WIDE SHOT OF BARNEBUS, AL, LIZ, AND CROWD
Barnebus walks away from Al and Liz, panicked out of his mind.
AL	Barnebus? Where are you going?
BARNEBUS	I… I-uh... I need to go to the bathroom!
Panel 2
SHOT OF BARNEBUS
Barnebus quickly makes his way into the bathroom.
Panel 3
DITTO
The bathroom looks to be as dingy and decrepit as one would expect in a punk club like this, with the words of the prophets covering the walls (Graffiti in other words). Barnebus stands in the doorway for a bit.
Panel 4
DITTO
He then quickly makes his way into one of the bathroom stalls.
Panel 5
DITTO
Closing the door now, he lets it all out.
BARNEBUS	OH GOD, WHAT HAVE I DONE?!
