BUZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
A hand emerges from the sheets of a twin bed and hits the snooze alarm. Repeat ten times.
One hour later: Frank stumbles into the bathroom of his cramped New York apartment. He strokes the gray flecked stubble on his square-jawed Italian mug. He grabs a hair brush, puts it up to his mouth and stares intensely into the mirror and begins to sing.
This is the end
You made your choice
And now my chance is over
I thought I was in
You put me down
And say I'm goin' nowhere
Save me darlin'
I am down
But I am far from over
Give me somethin'
I need it all
'Cause I am runnin' over
Back in the race
I'm movin' in
'Cause I am getting closer
I'm diggin' in
I want it more
Than anything I've wanted
Save me darlin'
I am down
But I am far from over
Give me somethin'
I need it all
'Cause I am runnin' over
[Instrumental Interlude]
Save me darlin'
I am down
But I am far from over
Give me somethin'
I need it all
'Cause I am runnin' over
Save me darlin'
I am down
But I am far from over
Give me somethin'
I need it all
'Cause I am runnin' over
I'm runnin' over
I'm runnin' over
Frank puts down the brush and turns off the light. He goes back into his bedroom and slips under the covers. Soon, he is asleep once again, the cheers of a phantom crowd still ringing in his ears.
FADE TO BLACK:
"Use the Force, Fluke!"
