EXT. HOLLYWOOD HILLS - RANDOM AFTERNOON

Banjo stops to take a swig of water just as MOBY @Moby appears from his house to take out the garbage. They nod hello. Banjo has loved the property well before Moby moved in and has always been curious about something.

  • BANJO
  • That Wolf's Lair sign (pointing at the blank area on the front of the house) - did you remove it because of he reference to Hitler's famous mountain retreat?
  • MOBY
  • (laughs) Nothing so sinister. Turns out it was the cheesy manor name of a horny bachelor.
  • BANJO
  • Like hey baby, wanna come back to the Wolf's Lair?
  • MOBY
  • Exactly.
  • BANJO
  • Giddy up.

They both laugh as Banjo takes off.
