    INT. POLICE STATION BREAK ROOM - DAY

    Detective JAKE WEISS handlebar mustache, thin, leather jacket, shield hanging from his neck and Detective DOMINIC CAVELLA, well dressed, heavy set, clean shaven sit on a SOFA with coffee mugs in hand, watching a COP SHOW on an old TV set, a small white box sits between them.

    DOMINIC Wow...a DNA match back in what...like two minutes?

    JAKEMore like two WEEKS. I dunno what it is with these shows....

    (shouting at the TV)JUST TELL IT LIKE IT IS!

    DOMINIC And who the fuck's computer makes those FUCKING ANNOYING beeping noises while it's waiting for a match? Jesus.

    JAKEDon't forget the actual MATCH ...when the computer gets a result...

    DOMINICYeah - forgot about that! BIIIING!!!!

    As the two cops each take a SLURP, We hear one loud BIIIING from the TV.

    DOMINICGuess they found another match, huh?

    JAKEThey should call one of US in as advisers. Y'know - when they WRITE this shit.

    (beat)keep it REAL!

    DOMINIC Maybe they could call in that actor guy from the other precinct - what's his name...they call him the Hollywood Cop...

  • 2JAKE Cop Hollywood, dumbass.

    DOMINIC Oh yeah...that'd work!

    (laughs)(beat)

    Jake waggles his finger towards the TV:

    JAKEThis shit annoys the hell out of me. Look at them. Are They supposed to be COPS?

    DOMINIC Sheesh. I know. Too fat for the force...eatin' donuts...stereotyped or what?

    Both cops take a slurp from their mugs, and engage in a series of synchronised slurping.

    JAKE reaches to the white box at his side. It's a box of KRISPY KREMES DONUTS.

    He takes one out and stuffs it in his mouth, and hands the box to DOMINIC who also takes one.

    DOMINIC (CONT'D)(stuffing his face with the donut)

    Terrible.

    JAKE(Mouth full)

    Unrealistic.

    DOMINIC AND JAKE(together)

    Ridiculous.

    DOMINIC gets up from the sofa and taps Jake on the sholder.

    DOMINICCome on, next box is on me.
