44INT. THE DAILY RIP STUDIO - 30 MINUTES LATER

Jack and Brie are interviewing Riley Bina.

RILEY BINA

I’m not gonna lie, but my friends

and my Vroom Vroom Army have been

so amazing, so... I’m really

grateful for that, but I can’t lie

it’s been hard.

BRIE EVANTEE

You’re an inspiration. You’re

really owning that pain. You know

Jack, I feel like there’s some kind

of conversation that we need to be

having. Is there any message you

want to send to your ex DJ Chello?

RILEY BINA

You know...

JACK BREMMER

If there’s something you want to

say let’s say it right into this

camera. Just tell him. As if that

was him, you tell him exactly what

you’re thinking.

RILEY BINA

Ok, um...Chell... I still love

you... and after a lot of sleepless

nights...three. I want to take you

back.

BRIE EVANTEE

I’m sorry, wha-

RILEY BINA

Is that ok?
