Deleted Scene: Boogie Nights, The Next Morning


               INT.  TORRANCE CAR WASH - MORNING (LATER)

               Dirk is working the end of the line at the car wash, cleaning 
               the inside of a Pinto.  Dirk's eye catches something.

               DIRK'S POV, ACROSS THE LOT

               A mint-condition Orange 1976 Corvette.  It DRIVES past.

               ANGLE, DIRK

               CAMERA DOLLIES INTO A CU.  HOLD.

               DIRK'S POV, THE CORVETTE.

               In a FLASH, Dirk sees himself BEHIND THE WHEEL.  He's driving 
               the Corvette, wearing SUNGLASSES and a WHITE SHIRT.

               ANGLE, DIRK.

               CAMERA DOLLIES BACK FROM CU.  Dirk blinks his eyes.  HOLD.

                                                                   CUT TO: 

               INT. JACK'S HOUSE/KITCHEN - LATE MORNING

               CAMERA DOES A SLOW DOLLY INTO PROFILE OF JACK.  He's sitting 
               in front of a typewriter, smoking a cgi, drinking coffee and 
               typing.  Amber enters, says hello and makes herself a cup of 
               coffee.

                                                                    CUT TO:

               INT. BECKY'S APARTMENT - DAY

               Becky's one bedroom place in the valley.  She's asleep in 
               her single bed, Reed is asleep on the floor.  They both awake, 
               lay there;

                                     REED
                         You awake?

                                     BECKY
                         Yeah.

                                     REED
                         What time is it?

                                     BECKY
                         12:45

                                     REED
                         I had a dream.

                                     BECKY
                         Yeah.


                                     REED
                         ...I forgot it, though....

               BEAT.

                                     REED (CONT'D)
                         I remember my dream --
                              (beat, then:)
                         No...I forget.  Wait -- No...I 
                         think...Nope.  I forgot it.  I hate 
                         that.

                                     BECKY
                         I had a dream I fell in love with a 
                         really gorgeous guy.  We fucked doggy 
                         style in the bathroom at Tail 'O The 
                         Cock.  Weird, huh?

               Suddenly, there's a banging on the front door of the 
               apartment.

                                     ANGRY MALE VOICE
                         BECKY!  BECKY!  OPEN UP, I KNOW YOU'RE 
                         IN THERE -- BECKY!

               Reed looks to Becky, whispers;

                                     REED
                         Is that Ronnie?

                                     BECKY
                         Yeah, Shhh.  He'll go away --

                                     RONNIE
                         C'MON BECKY, BECKY, PLEASE OPEN THE 
                         DOOR -- I JUST - I WANNA TALK TO YOU --

               There's the sound CO that resembles someone falling down, 
               swearing, getting in a car and peeling off.

                                     BECKY
                         I keep telling him we broke up.  He 
                         doesn't listen.
