4PM FORREST GUMP - Drama, 30 min.
Gump, the swindler.

FORREST GUMP

"Swindled!"

 

FADE IN: JENNY #42 DECK, DAY

LT. DAN

Gump, before you even start, I know that there is no simple-minded but witty expression that will ease the pain we are both going to incur shortly because our greed got the best of us out there while poaching among those incredibly dense schools of shrimp. Now, there, I've said my peace.

GUMP

You know, Lt. Dan. I named all of my boats Jenny because I loved her. But, I think it's time we renamed at least some of them.

(beat)

What was that Department of Fishery guy's name that wrote us up the other day?

LT. DAN

Frank, I think. Yeah, Frank. Frank Swindle, I believe it was. Hey, Swindle! There ought to be a joke there somewhere, huh Gump?

GUMP
(ignoring Lt. Dan's speculation)

You know, Lt. Dan. I truly believe, for no particular reason, we should name about 10 or 15 of the Jenny's Frank Swindle. What do you think?

LT. DAN

No particular reason! Gump. You are so deep. I guess stupid is really is as stupid does, right?

GUMP

Lt. Dan, I think you should leave the witty come-backs to yours truly. At least when I say those things nobody can think I must be dumber than I look.

LT. DAN

So right, my man, so right.
