Will sits with Morgan at the bar watching with some amusement as Chuckie and Billy play bar basketball game where the players shoot miniature balls at a small basket. In the B.G. Occasionally we hear Chuckie shouting "Larry!" When he scores. Skylar emerges from the crowd and approaches Will.
SKYLAR
You suck.
WILL
What?
SKYLAR
I've been sitting over there for forty-
five minutes waiting for you to come
talk to me. But I'm just tired now
and I have to go home and I wasn't
going to keep sitting there waiting
for you.
WILL
I'm Will.
SKYLAR
Skylar. And by the way.
That guy over there is a real dick and
I just wanted you to know he didn't
come with us.
WILL
I kind of got that impression.
SKYLAR
Well, look, I have to go. Gotta' get
up early and waste some more money on
my overpriced education.
WILL
I didn't mean you. Listen, maybe...
SKYLAR
Here's my number.
Skylar produces a folded piece of paper and offers it to Will.
SKYLAR (cont'd)
Maybe we could go out for coffee
sometime?
WILL
Great, or maybe we could go somewhere
and just eat a bunch of caramels.
SKYLAR
What?
WILL
When you think about it, it's just as
arbitrary as drinking coffee.
SKYLAR
(laughs)
Okay, sounds good.
She turns.
WILL
SKYLAR
What?
WILL
I was trying to be smooth.
(indicates clock)
But at twelve-fifteen I was gonna come
over there and talk to you.
SKYLAR
See, it's my life story.
Five more minutes and I would have got
to hear your best pick-up line.
WILL
The caramel thing is my pick-up line.
A beat.
SKYLAR
Glad I came over.
